It's dark late at night.

In a forest a hundred miles south of the town of Peace.

Hearing the news of the loss of Sisoo's head, all the mercenaries sitting around the campfire had their faces covered with a layer of frost.

I don't know how long it was silent, but it was the nasty who spoke first: "Only Mr. Blue Hat knows that Sisoo's head is in our hands, so ......" When he said this, he suddenly glanced at the black-faced man, only to see that the other party stood up directly from the ground, broke away from the group, and walked under a red-shirted tree in a fifty-year-old forest, and closed his eyes to rest.

The nasty ghost looked at the guy named Ryder who walked directly out of twenty meters away, and wanted to restart the topic just now, he just wanted to open his mouth, but Frank directly interrupted him and said: "The search direction tomorrow remains the same, continue to look south, according to the route planned on the map, everyone should rest early, and set off at dawn tomorrow." After the former mercenary captain finished speaking, he got up from the ground, looked for a sheltered place, and lay down directly.

When Frank returned to Peace Town half a month ago, he fainted directly from excessive blood loss. Later, the mercenaries learned from the mouth of a mandala, who was wearing only a dirty garment, what kind of bloody battle Frank had encountered.

All the mercenaries know that because of the number of the two sides of the battle, and because of the slightly cautious play of the mercenaries, it led to the final out-of-control situation. At that time, after receiving the mission from Peake, Frank had no choice but to break away from the mercenary team in order to break out of the siege of the undead warriors with the carriage in which Mandala was located.

For the once powerful regiment leader, all the mercenaries believed in his strength, so they didn't worry too much. What they didn't expect was that Frank was followed by eight horse thieves!

In fact, Frank, who once dared to charge hundreds of prisoners, could naturally beat eight horse thieves.

But due to the special situation, after receiving a temporary assignment from Pique, he focused on protecting the five girls in the carriage. In addition, it was a cavalry battle, and the horse thieves could take advantage of their mobility and roam around Frank's side to harass and attack, which gave the eight horse thieves an opportunity.

It is worth mentioning that the five girls he protected all returned to the town of peace unharmed. Almost all of the mercenaries had only minor injuries, except for Frank, who was covered in slashing marks.

This made the mercenaries feel guilty, and if one person had followed Frank at that time, it would not have hurt their former boss like this.

The mercenary, who was not bad at the cost, bought a large amount of holy water from the church and put it all in Frank's recuperation room. The holy water piled up high was enough for Frank to take a few baths.

With holy water and the mercenaries taking care of him, Frank's recovery from his injuries was amazing.

During this time, Mandala also brought a kind of girl to the hotel Frank to express his gratitude.

When everything calmed down, Frank, who had been wounded in the peaceful town for a week, finally couldn't bear it anymore and began to advance south with his mercenary brothers.

After searching for so many days, the mercenaries who found nothing couldn't help but look a little discouraged.

At this moment, Frank is also in no mood to do psychological construction for them, and he has never had this habit. Moreover, at this time, Frank was no longer the leader of the Timberwolves mercenary group. Compared to Frank, grass carp is very careful. "Go on according to the plan!" said to the many mercenaries, "Search a thousand miles to the south, and if you can't find anyone, the plan will be terminated, and if anyone finds it, I am willing to give a hundred gold coins as a reward!" A radius of a thousand miles was the original plan they set.

There are two reasons why the grass carp said this: first, it is necessary to unite the hearts of all mercenaries so that there will be no omissions, and second, he said the number of 1,000 miles, so that everyone has a number in their hearts. That means telling you that no matter what, you won't be able to keep looking for it forever, so don't say anything that disturbs everyone's minds.

After searching a distance of a hundred miles in a week, then at most two months, they can terminate the mission regardless of whether they can find anyone or not.

As for Sisoo's head...... If you lose it, you lose it......

Although the nervous mercenaries felt a little pity, after all, it represented a huge bounty, but they also knew deeply that Sisoo was not killed by them.

Ryder is an outlier in this mercenary team, and after half a month, the expression on his face has become more and more solemn. At this moment, he was leaning against a large tree, his eyes closed. Gradually, hearing the sound of footsteps in his ears, he slowly opened his eyes again, and looked at the mercenary man who came from the night with a little doubt.

"If I were you, I wouldn't have that cane with me. Frank sat down next to Ryder and said to the black-faced man, "There's a good chance this cane is causing you trouble." ”

Ryder sat there, took the noble cane off his belt, and said suspiciously, "You said this?"

"Yes," said Frank, "you should know the value of this cane, and if someone who knows it sees it, you're in danger." ”

"I have a lot more at home. ”

Frank was silent.

Ryder continued: "I know what you mean, you said that the noble cane made by Peake is very valuable, isn't it?

"Yes," he said, "yes," he said, "you should have seen the gold coins, which were exchanged for the nobleman's staff." ”

Ryder was silent for a few seconds, then rubbed the noble cane in front of him earnestly, "How could I not know?" he said affectionately, "but I want to take it with me, only then can I always remember the appearance of Pique, and I am afraid that at some point, his appearance will suddenly disappear from my mind." ”

"The host will be safe and sound. Still, I suggest you hide this noble cane and wrap it in cloth. ”

"No, I don't. "This noble cane was carved by Peake's own hand, and it will bless me like a god of light." Ryder knew that Pique had acquired extraordinary abilities, and he would never ask Pique about "extraordinary", nor would he ever ask about it. But that doesn't mean he doesn't understand anything. "If I'm holding his carved cane, there's a good chance he'll sense me if he's nearby. Ryder said this, his eyes shining with hope.

Both of them are not good at talking, and each of them feels the depression in the other's heart. At the same time, he sighed at the same time and fell silent.

In the end, it was Frank who was a little older and took the initiative to start a new topic: "The master has two names. ”

"Yes. Ryder replied directly.

Frank still had questions in his mind, and he didn't plan to continue. Unexpectedly, Ryder took the initiative to say it: "This is a secret, a secret that belongs only to me and him, but I can share it with you." ”

"I guess the master won't agree to you sharing your secrets with me in private. ”

"I can tell that you are a trustworthy person,"

In the darkness of the night, Ryder's complexion was not very noticeable, but his white teeth could be clearly revealed.

Frank saw the black-faced man's smile and said unconsciously, "Thank you......"

"Actually, Peake and I talked about you, and he said that Frank is a trustworthy person who can be asked for help if he is not at home. ”

"Does the master really say that?"

"That's probably not the case, but that's what it means. A look of remembrance appeared on Ryder's face, and then the subject turned back, "You really don't plan to hear his secret?"

"Oh, I never thought about it, I've learned a lot by my master's side, that's my original intention," Frank said with a firm face, and then took the initiative to change the subject, "I still recommend that you hide your cane, the reason is simple, the person who can recognize the material of this cane is either a powerful person or an extremely powerful person!"

"I accept your suggestion," he said earnestly, "and thank you for your suggestion." With that, he poured out all the contents of the cloth bag behind him, most of which were food. Then he stretched out the cloth wrap and wrapped it around the nobleman's cane. Finally, a knot was tied and tied around the back.

"Here's for you," Ryder picked up the food he had taken out of his cloth bag. "It was delicious to bring it out of the peaceful town. ”

Frank looked at the oilcloth bag handed to him, and did not pretend, after catching it, he opened it directly, and saw that there was a pancake in it, and there seemed to be a bacon in the middle of the pancake.

Unceremoniously, he swallowed the oil cake in two bites.

Ryder handed him the water bag again.

"Thank you. Frank thanked Ryder for the second time.

"Actually, I want to thank you," said Ryder, "and I know your wounds are not healed, and you have worked so hard. ”

"It's not a big deal anymore, these injuries are really not worth mentioning for a mercenary," Frank chuckled, then took a hand axe from his back, "This one is for you." ”

"What do you do for me?" Ryder looked at the hand axe glowing with cold light in his hand, the axe surface was huge, there were several deep blood grooves on it, and the handle of the axe was wrapped with a tight black cloth, which could increase friction when held in his hand.

"Defend yourself," said Frank, "and you can't take out your cane until it's time to do so, so I'll give you the axe to defend yourself." Well, don't worry, I still have one. For me now, there is no difference between one and two. ”

Just like Frank accepts Ryder's food, Ryder doesn't drag his feet in the slightest. "Looks like my oil cake is worth a lot," he joked a little and then said sincerely, "thank you, besides Pique, you're my second friend." ”

Looking at the black-faced man in front of him who was twenty years younger than himself, but his figure was not allowed to be at all, Frank felt that it was a pity that he didn't learn martial arts, "Starting tomorrow, I will teach you some simple martial arts," Frank said, "I will use an axe, just give you a ......" Speaking of this, the essence in Frank's eyes suddenly flashed, and he immediately took off another axe from his back, and cut off the head of Ryder next to him without thinking!

Ryder was still looking at the axe in his hand, and suddenly saw an axe twice the size of his face coming towards him, and then there was still time to react! He only had time to think about it: why did he cut me......

Bite!

A powerful metal clash exploded in Ryder's ears!

The axe didn't hit him, but blocked a certain piece of iron above his head! Ryder immediately made a judgment and rolled straight forward a few meters!

By this time, Frank had already jumped up, and while using his axe to block the sword light that came from the darkness again, he hissed and shouted, "Enemy attack!"
