Faced with Ryan's surprise, Al smiled and pointed to the next door.

"You're saying they're right next door to us." Ryan whispered.

"Almost." Al nodded.

"Well, this is an opportunity for Al to elaborate on their situation." Ryan held his chin in a thoughtful look.

"I know you have such intentions." Al clasped his hands to his chest, obviously a teenager but looked old, "There are almost three of them, the strongest of them seems to have been injured by a magician, the remaining two have one called a monkey, and the other is more mysterious, as if he took the potion." ”

"It's really funny, just three people dared to snatch food at the auction of the Federation of Commerce, disrupt the venue, and snatch the finale lot strengthening potion. Now someone has issued a task to reward a big man with a high price, and even as long as he provides his whereabouts, he will be paid, and with the addition of the soldiers and knights in the castle guard, now McCaine City can be lively. Ryan stared at the wall playfully, as if he wanted to see through the next door.

"The news is really fast, Ryan, if you want to do it, it's too early, the big man still has to recuperate, the medicine hasn't moved for the time being, it's hard to say after a long time." Al shrugged disapprovingly.

"Well, that's a question, but did we get the potion?" Ryan tilted his head and glanced at Al, the meaning couldn't be more obvious, it was better to rob than to steal it without knowing it.

"You're welcome," Al glanced at Ryan, walked up to Ryan, and said with a smirk, "Didn't you say you could let me stop doing this?" ”

"This," Ryan scratched his scalp a little embarrassed, "Isn't this a specialization in the art industry?" ”

"Okay, but I want Knut to help me." Al agreed.

"What," Ryan didn't react for a moment, "you agreed." ”

"Hmm." Al nodded faintly, "Ryan, have you ever thought about representing your own interests, not to complete the task?" ”

"No, mercenaries value credibility the most, and they can't be because of ......" Ryan flatly refused.

"What can't be? Did you go to the Mercenary Guild and officially take this task? Al interrupted Ryan.

Ryan hurriedly explained, "This kind of bounty type task can be paid as long as you get the target of the bounty. ”

"But the reward is not equal to what we give." Al put his hands on Ryan's shoulders, his eyes staring into Ryan's eyes. "And did you do it to complete the mission?"

"This ......," Ryan hesitated.

Seeing his words, Al Ryan listened to it and continued, "Think about it yourself, you have always been obsessed with the identity of a mercenary, always thinking about completing tasks to prove yourself, can you look at this problem from a different angle?" ”

"Is that good?" Ryan was a little confused.

"It's not a question of whether it's good or not, you don't see the essence of things at all." Al punched Ryan lightly, "Although you are a D-class mercenary, do you have anything to do with this mission?" ”

"Well, I'll think about it." Ryan held his head and thought quietly, for a long time, and muttered dreamily, "Hey, I seem to have entered a misunderstanding, I have been imprisoned by my own thinking, I understand." ”

Ryan suddenly raised his head, looked at Al with a smug smile on the corner of his mouth, and lightly punched him, "The authorities are obsessed with bystanders, thank you." ”

"It's best if you can figure it out, we've taken this task." Al raised his right hand to Ryan.

Syllable.

Ryan stretched out his right hand and slammed Al's palm, "Well, I haven't figured it out for such a simple thing. Now, let's do it for our own sake. ”

Hiss, hiss, Knut sensed something, and wandered affectionately over the two of them.

At dusk, the sun sets, the fiery sunset stains the earth, and the inn seems to be calm, but in fact the waves are turbulent.

"Boss, have you seen this person?" A bald man with a portrait asks the owner of an inconspicuous inn.

The bald man was a C-class mercenary, and he had heard that someone had seen a short-haired man appear around here, so he came to ask.

The innkeeper was also depressed, what was going on today, there were already three or four different groups of people who came to ask the same question, and he told them that the guest was living in the upstairs room, and they didn't go up to have a look, but very generously rewarded him and left.

He had been in business for more than ten years, and the business was not very good, and the owner himself usually took care of everything in the hotel, and he did not know anything about what was going on in the city, and it would be a few days before anyone would discuss these topics in the hotel, and then he would know what kind of people lived in his store.

"I have seen it, and I live here, do you have anything to do with him?" The boss was also a little curious, what the hell was going on, so many people were looking for this big man with short hair.

"Really live here." The bald head seemed a little unconvinced.

"It's true, has anyone else asked before?" The boss said truthfully.

"It's okay, it's yours, tell me some more details about him." The bald head threw the boss a silver coin and asked suspiciously.

After a while, the satisfied bald head did not go upstairs to check, just like the previous waves, but strode away.

"Well, should you just release the news that he is here, or should you find someone to capture him?" The bald head thought about it as he walked, "Dare to rob the things of the business association, it must not be weak, and the innkeeper said that he still has a helper, which is not easy to deal with." ”

"However, if the potion is really in his hands, it is worth a fight, compared to other people's thoughts, no one has come to round him up on a large scale so far, just don't want to startle the snake, but want to swallow this big fish alone."

"Hehe, this is my chance, no one to guide me, the practice of martial arts is also over, if you can get a potion to strengthen your body and prolong your life, it will be a rebirth. No, I have to get it. ”

Just after the bald head left, a piece of dust suddenly lifted up on the ground in front of the inn, and if you stumbled down to look closely, you would find that it was a footprint.

An extremely subtle air flow blew through, and a lot of fine dust was lifted half a meter out of this footprint, and a faint footprint appeared. The footprints seemed to be walking, step by step, down the stairs, to the door of a room, after a pause, a soft knock sounded out of thin air, as if an invisible hand was knocking on the door, knock knock, knock knock.

With a creak, the door opened.

The door was opened by a man with a full beard, and he didn't feel the slightest weirdness when he looked at the empty door, but turned sideways, let go of the door, and then closed the door casually.

In the room, Ryan and Al were naked, surrounded by fog and smoke.

"It's so comfortable, I feel hot all over my body, and even my bones are numb." Ryan squinted, very pleasant. "Al, how are you feeling?"

"I'm not as strong as you, I don't feel good, the pain is hot, it's like the waves crashing, and my whole body is red." Al was sweating profusely, his cheeks were crimson, and his body was shaking twice from time to time.

"Ah, comfortable, Al didn't expect you to be so weak, you won't be able to do it for a while." Ryan looked at Al's flushed face and felt funny, and touched him, "You usually have to pay more attention to exercise, otherwise you will be guilty of such a wonderful thing, hahaha." ”

"Really? I'm not as lucky as you are, and I have Los to help you refine your body, but if you're strong enough to break through the shield of the ring, Los will be able to guide you every day, and the world will be a lot more exciting. Al was unmoved, but said with a look of envy.

"You ......" Ryan blackened his face and stopped talking. The thought of Loth's extremely bad temperament made Ryan feel overwhelmed. If Los bothers him every day, then he must be crazy.

"Hitting people doesn't hit them in the face." Ryan said in a deep voice.

"What's the matter, aren't you enjoying it? Even this method of absorbing the essence of the dragon's reverse scale in a medicinal bath was taught to you by Loos, are you still dissatisfied? Al feigned surprise, "Isn't it true that you've always held a grudge against Loth, it helped us out of trouble and saved your life when we were in Psychedelic Mountain, if you let the Ringwraiths know that you think this way about him......"

"You ......" Ryan was speechless, not expecting to be countered by Al.

"Well, take a good bath, relax your body, and try to absorb the essence of this pool of water." Ryan was helpless and surrendered with difficulty.

Al was silent, a smug smile on his lips.

"Ah, hahaha, hahaha, Knut, don't make trouble, it's so itchy." Al suddenly felt something abnormal in his body, and Knut was swimming around on him all over his body, harassing him twice in his stomach, chest, and armpits, which made Al hurt and itch, and was very uncomfortable, obviously knowing that his master was being bullied.

"Knut is so active, and sure enough, it's the biggest gain." Ryan didn't have the slightest intention of stopping it, and leisurely soaked in the pool water.

"A trace of dragon blood, for the demonic beast, it is like a strengthening potion." Al grabbed Konut and fished it out of the pool.

"Fortifying potions? I have a sense of foreboding about tonight's actions, and I always feel that something is going to happen. Ryan turned out to be an innocent-looking Knut in El's hands.

"It's okay, I'll be the first to run if something goes wrong, what are you afraid of if you take the blame for me." Al said ramblingly.

"I really hope it will go smoothly this time, I find that there are already other people eyeing this place, at least three different groups of people secretly watching here."

"yes, that's interesting."

"Hey, what's going on, why did the pool water suddenly get hot." Al didn't feel right, his red skin became more painful in the strangely colored pool water, and what had been just a crushing sensation was now like he was in boiling water.

"It's getting hotter." Even Ryan, whose physical strength far surpassed that of El, noticed the change in water temperature.

Ryan looked down at the water and was taken aback, the water was tumbling as if it was boiling, and the bottom of the water emitted a dark red halo.

"Konut." The two said in unison.

Boom, reaching out into the water, Knut's whole body was red, and he struggled non-stop.

"It's hot." Ryan was in pain and quickly let go. By this time, his hands had been burned and blistered.

"Konut." Ryan cried out worriedly.

"No, Ryan, come out quickly, the water is too hot." Al hurriedly dragged Ryan out of the hot pool.

"What's going on?" Watching Knut roll and twist in the pool in pain, Ryan was overwhelmed.
