Volume 2 The Beginning of the Edge Chapter 2 A Night in a Small Town

At the same time, the Immortal Island where Great Elder Shulan had departed, the northwest corner of the Candy Kingdom, which was extremely far away......

The town of Tanner.

The only characteristic of this town is that it is a necessary way to the Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge. Residents of this town account for only a very small part of the resident population, and the vast majority of them come from other places, and are basically businessmen and guilds. And among these people, mercenary groups are the mainstay.

But Little Wukong didn't care about this, and as he stepped over the iron gate connecting Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge and the Candy Kingdom in one fell swoop, the appearance of Tanner Town was once again completely displayed in front of him.

"This is the fourth time I've been to this town, and I'm a regular visitor. ”

Little Wukong couldn't help but shake his head and smiled silently. Immediately sighed again:

"Even at night, it's impossible to be so quiet here, and there are still people who venture to the Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge. ”

As he spoke, Little Wukong looked not far away, and several strong men who were walking in his direction while talking foul words in their mouths attracted his attention at the same time.

The man had a mohican hairstyle, with only a bunch of red hair on the top of his head, which looked very funny. He had a cigarette in his mouth and a fierce face, but unlike the others, he only had one eye outside, and the other eye was covered by a black cloth, which only added a lot of ruffians and bully aura.

Little Wukong had just walked in from the iron gate in the northwest direction, and at this moment he saw that it was getting late, and he wanted to find a tavern to stay, so he also walked forward, and after a short time, he got closer and closer to them.

Originally, Little Wukong felt that this was just the most ordinary and ordinary passerby meeting, but until a word in their mouths was heard by him, Little Wukong was stunned, and then in the next second, he recovered his indifference and moved forward casually.

And at this time, the one-eyed man who was the leader just glanced at him, and said casually as if greeting:

"Yo, little brother, I just came back from Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge. ”

Naturally, Little Wukong knew that he was talking to himself, and he remained calm and unfazed in his heart, looking up at him with a slight smile:

"Good evening, big brother! My trip to the Ten Thousand Beasts Ridge is like walking around the Ghost Gate, the mountains are dangerous, and there are monsters everywhere. A few big brothers should be careful after entering. ”

"Hahaha!" the one-eyed man laughed loudly, "You can come out unscathed as a little hairy child with fine skin and tender flesh, how can we a few rough men who lick blood on the tip of a knife every day lose to you!"

As he spoke, he unleashed his powerful spiritual power.

Little Wukong looked at the spiritual aura of this one-eyed strong man with his spiritual sense, silently put the first feeling he received in his heart, exclaimed with an exclamation, and asked:

"Big brother is so powerful, does he also need to go into the mountains to experience?"

"I'm just strong on the outside, I look strong but I'm weak on the inside," the one-eyed man changed the wildness of talking to his brothers before, and replied modestly, "Brothers, I just want to go in and give those monsters a bite to be comfortable." ”

Little Wukong took the opportunity to end the conversation in a few words and left.

And the one-eyed strong man looked back in the direction that Little Wukong left, silent.

The person behind him felt strange and asked suspiciously:

"Boss, that little brother is your relative, why are you so familiar? I haven't seen you show your brothers before. ”

"I don't know him, but I always feel a little like that person with his breath. The one-eyed man lowered his eyebrows and groaned.

"...... that person?"

Several people thought for a while, and then their faces were shocked, and they immediately asked:

"Boss, don't chase it yet!"

"Don't worry, you may admit your mistake, let's keep going. ”

The one-eyed man grinned and showed an ugly smile.

Several people were shocked for a while, and asked repeatedly: "Boss, do you really not chase after you and ask clearly?"

"No, let's go. ”

The one-eyed man smiled, then turned back and walked towards the iron gate.

Several people looked at each other, and they could only follow immediately.

......

Little Wukong on the other side, with the deep memory formed after coming here repeatedly, searched along the road, and soon found a tavern, a tavern called "Dissa".

It is the place where Little Wukong meets with the Sea Prince, Xiao Qian and other training camp members for the first time, and it is also the tavern where everyone chooses to stay after the first mission.

Therefore, Little Wukong is very familiar with this place, and compared to the previous two times, he seems more calm and comfortable. Because at this time, he is already a human being, and he no longer needs to be treated as a monster or pet. Otherwise, he is alone, and he doesn't know how to solve this housing problem.

Now, he can just call the bartender and say he's going to book a room for the night. And the bartender no longer looked at him with strange eyes, at most he was amazed at his appearance. Of course, it may be mistaken for a girl, but in his opinion at this time, this is not a problem!

Compared to being recognized as a girl, he doesn't want to be regarded as the pet of the sea prince and Xiaoqian!

After paying enough money, Little Wukong went straight to the second floor, found the room he was staying in, and pinched the key to open the door.

Entering the room and seeing a fluffy bed in it, Little Wukong couldn't help but feel emotional.

It's so comfortable to finally be able to rest in such a comfortable bed......

Lying on the bed in an extremely lazy posture, Xiao Wukong's mind just got up, and he thought of what happened just now, and immediately sat up, his face became solemn.

Earlier, he heard a word from the conversation between the big men, and thus learned that they were members of the mercenary group.

Little Wukong heard the name of their mercenary group:

"Fierce Fire Mercenary Group". [①]

Then I knew that those big men before, and the people led by the "third brother" that I killed some time ago, all belonged to this fierce mercenary group.

But thinking of that time, Little Wukong still has palpitations. Although he said that he regarded those people as the "guinea pigs" who he was experimenting with the secret method of nascent life, the "Metallographic Technique", in fact, his battle was very difficult and dangerous. Because even if his secret method was opened, his strength suddenly increased by about two or three realms, but he couldn't stop the large number of opponents, and he repeatedly maneuvered around to dissipate his physical strength in disguise.

But the good thing is......

Before the last moment when the effect of his secret method was about to disappear, he had eliminated all the people.

He still remembered the appearance of the "third brother" still dying, but he didn't pay much attention to it at the time, just thinking about picking up a wave of loot and leaving there.

But then, something he didn't expect happened.

A few seconds after the "third brother" was completely gone, his entire body suddenly exploded with a "bang", and a disc-shaped object that bloomed with light floated out of it, and before Little Wukong could react, it flashed away.

After little Wukong was stunned for a moment, his hair immediately tightened, because he knew very well what it was.

Once upon a time, he traveled with Grand Elder Shulan, who told him this common knowledge: it was a soul mark carved in a special way, and after a person died, it would disappear, so that the person who portrayed it would know the death information of the deceased, including the place of death, including the breath of the murderer.

Although Little Wukong had picked up the loot, including the core of the Fire Feather Bird, he had also obtained the fourth-order Demonic Beast core from the space rings they each carried, which had already exceeded the amount of his task, and could have returned to the Candy Kingdom. However, in order to prevent the person who cast the seal from coming to take revenge, he immediately made a decision and ran back into the depths.

In the process, while hiding, he looked at the map, and deliberately bypassed his original planned route and went around in a big circle.

This is also the reason why it took a few weeks for Little Wukong to slowly return.

As a result, I was really unlucky......

As soon as he came back, he directly collided with the group of people from the fierce mercenary group. Is there anyone more unlucky in the world than him?

"If I knew this, I might as well go back directly, what are you doing so far away! I met with Boboli, and through her relationship, I just didn't leave the candy royal family? No matter how powerful the mercenary group is, do they dare to hit the head of the royal family? Then they are really blind!"

Little Wukong was thinking at this time, there were really 10,000 alpacas whistling by.

"It's a pity that it's useless to say anything now, my breath is directly transmitted back through that soul mark, those people must have known it for a long time!"

"Then what room do I book, let's run away overnight......" Little Wukong couldn't help but complain to himself, and patted himself on the forehead.

"Alas, I still think about the comfort of the bed, after all, I have been running around for so long, I really can't resist the temptation!" The beautiful young man couldn't help but laugh bitterly.

"Forget it, I don't want this room, I'll leave quickly, a small life is much more important than a comfortable bed. With this life, I'm afraid that I won't be able to sleep in a luxurious bed?"

As soon as he thought of this, Little Wukong was about to open the window and jump out of the window.

"Wait a minute......" he suddenly noticed something.

"Strange, why didn't those people chase them all the way? It stands to reason that they must have discovered my breath. ”

Little Wukong pinched his chin and groaned.

He thought about it and seemed to have found the reason.

Not to mention the people who traveled with him, just the one-eyed strong man before, the breath he released didn't seem to be very strong.

"Also, after all, I killed all the dozen people, no matter how angry they are, they have to consider my strength, I seem to be overly worried. ”

Little Wukong touched his head, and his nervous mind, which had been tense, immediately relaxed.

So, he finally chose ...... It blends in with the bed again......

"Oh no matter! I've been guarding against this and that all the way, and I haven't slept peacefully for days, so I'll enjoy the ...... a little."

Little Wukong muttered as he lay back on the soft bed, enjoying the comfort of the bed.

Before I knew it, I was already asleep.

......

Two hours later.

On the other wall of the Disa Tavern, with a soft, imperceptible "whoosh" sound, the shadow of the wall protruded.

On closer inspection, it seems that a masked figure dressed in black is moving slowly. I saw this man climb up the wall and climb to a certain window.

Through the window, he spotted a beautiful boy who was sleeping soundly.

The moment he saw the young man, a grim smile appeared on his face.

He quietly pushed the window open at a very slow speed, and the whole person was extremely light and silent.

Then, gradually, he came to the side of the bed and slowly raised one arm.

In his hand, he holds a sharp blade.

In the next moment, he raised the sharp blade and aimed it at the young man's throat, stabbing straight down at an extremely fast speed......
