Chapter 442: First Contact

The tavern, a place filled with all kinds of noise, turbid air and the most primitive and direct attraction between men and women.

Although there are at least seven or eight taverns in Luskan, the "big city", none are as lively as the docklands.

Although not long ago there had been a terrible group of fights that even the bartenders and proprietors had been fired and now had to be wrapped in thick bandages to greet their guests, the sailors did not care at all, and still gathered together to drink cheap drinks, while others negotiated prices with women in heavy makeup and went into the expensive rooms upstairs for a heated hand-to-hand fight.

If the whole of Luskan is seen as a city of desire, then this tavern is a tiny microcosm.

Today, however, two strange guests came to the tavern, one of whom was wrapped in a black cloak and couldn't see it clearly, and he didn't order any drinks at all, just a seafood soup and two loaves of bread.

As for the other, a young girl with beautiful long brown hair, not only has a beautiful face, but also has a rather bumpy figure, which is not at all comparable to those street girls who rely on cheap perfume and dress up to arouse men's desires.

Normally, such a pure and beautiful girl is usually the trigger for riots and violent incidents, especially when you drink to the point of delirium and hormone secretion, you will definitely not be able to help but come forward to talk and harass.

But the funny thing is that when two hooligans who tried to touch the girl's plump boobs and thighs were pierced through the palms of their hands with sharp daggers, none of them dared to go to trouble.

None of the people who begged for a living at sea were real idiots, and they all noticed that the man sitting next to the girl exuded a murderous aura that no one could enter, and if anyone dared to be uninteresting, the dagger would pierce not the palm of their hand, but their throat.

This is not a fight on the streets on weekdays!

It's not violence between gangs fighting for territory!

This is the real killing!

A killing that does not involve any interests, but only interests and hobbies!

Obviously, the mysterious man who covered his face with a hood all over his body enjoyed the painful appearance of his opponent falling at his feet, and enjoyed the thrill of blood gushing out of his throat!

So, everyone was afraid, maybe they dared to challenge a strong warrior, but they would never dare to provoke an executioner hiding in the shadows.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the tavern became oppressive and heavy, and the usually unscrupulous sailors unconsciously lowered their volumes, for fear of accidentally annoying the evil star who came from nowhere.

There is no doubt that this strange combination is the famous Artemis Ndrlili and Bruno's adopted human daughter, Katie Brill.

"Eat!" the killer pushed the seafood soup and one of the loaves of bread on the table to the girl next to him.

His language is as simple and clear as ever, without the slightest bit of nonsense.

"No!" Katie Brill, who was full of anger in her heart, opened the soup bowl directly, staring at each other with both eyes.

Even though she hadn't eaten in a long time, she still couldn't help but want to test the killer's bottom line.

Syllable!

Artemis Ntreili, who had no pity for the jade, knocked the girl to the ground with a slap of his hand, and his whole body exuded a strong killing intent.

Just when Katie Brill felt that she was going to die this time, a slightly teasing voice suddenly came from the entrance of the tavern: "Wow! Beating a woman who has no power to fight back is not the behavior of a gentleman." ”

I saw two young men dressed as wizards walk in, led by an officer dressed in Luskan standard armor.

"My lord, that's him. Gildan lowered his voice and reminded in his ear.

"Isn't that obvious......"

Zhang Cheng curled the corners of his mouth with a playful smile, came to the front without panic, bent down and took Katie Brill's hand, and gently helped the young girl who would have a series of emotional entanglements with Trist in the future, and then comforted him as if no one was around: "Relax, lovely girl, no one can hurt you anymore with me." ”

"You...... !! you" Katie Brill seemed to sense something, a look of shock and horror on her face.

Although it was technically the first time the two had met, she had been listening to her adoptive father Bruno and her good friend Trist talk about the weird black dragon all winter, so it didn't take much effort to recognize the true identity of the young man in front of her.

"Shhhhh Zhang Cheng raised his right index finger and put it on the other party's lips, and at the same time raised his hand and snapped his fingers.

Moment!

A plate of freshly prepared fried fish flew up into thin air and landed firmly in front of Katie Brill.

Perhaps sensing the subtle atmosphere in the air, or perhaps sensing that the dragon would protect her, she gave up her guard for a moment, grabbed a golden piece of fish, and gulped it down.

Gildan also didn't know when, silently standing behind the table, squinting his eyes and staring at the killer with a defiant gaze.

It doesn't take to know that he, who has just gained the power of rage, is eager to wash away the humiliation he received in his last encounter.

But alas, Artemis Ntreili did not respond to this provocation, and while tearing the hard bread in his hand into small pieces and throwing it into his mouth, he asked without raising his head: "Who are you, why do you want to see me, and what is your purpose?"

"Hehe, there's no need to be so nervous, first of all, I can guarantee that there is no hostility towards you. On the contrary, I hope to recruit you and have high expectations of you. Zhang Cheng sat across the table and began to try to make contact with the other party.

He may not be very good at hand-to-hand combat, but he can also tell from Eun Triri's tense muscles and posture that if he senses the slightest abnormality, the killer will pull out his weapon and plunge it into his heart with lightning speed.

At such a distance and in a confined space, Artemis had absolute confidence.

Of course, he didn't know that Zhang Cheng was not a human at all what he seemed on the surface, but a black dragon with a huge body and hard scales.

Even if the dagger were to get into the gap between the scales, it would only cause a slight skin wound at most, and then it would be engulfed in deadly dragon's breath flames.

Neither thieves nor killers can pose much of a threat to a real dragon with their short weapons.

After all, dragons are so large that only heavy weapons such as spears, hammers, crossbows, two-handed swords, and axes can really hurt them, and dragon slayers are often either powerful spellcasters or powerful warriors in heavy armor.

"Recruit me?" Entrili raised an eyebrow in surprise.

He had considered several possibilities before coming, but none of them had been solicitation.

After serving the Port Carlin Thieves Guild for many years, he never thought that one day he would abandon the prestige and status he had so hard to erect, not to mention that the desolate Northland was completely inferior to the prosperity of Port Carlin......
