Chapter 239: A normal villain seems to have appeared
"Hahahaha! It's all fate! Eat as much as you can! Drink as much as you can! Know it or not! Today Lord Sparta is all-inclusive! ”
Spartan, already a little drunk, had a cigar between his fingers and another cigar in his mouth, leaning back in a large comfortable chair and shaking his free hand around.
His soldiers occupied almost the entire hotel, but no one was forbidden to enter or leave, and the few brave men who dared to enter the door after seeing such a group of fellows were also entertained by Sparta, and they were allowed to eat and drink for free.
That being said, most people are still completely afraid to approach, and there are already cars parked outside, and there are many people on it who can't get into the hotel drinking unscrupulously, completely ignoring the traffic rules and other ghost settings.
Merlin and Huang Taiyi were naturally within the scope of being entertained, but they were forcibly pulled over at all.
Drunkards are creatures that can't be understood in many cases by the way of normal thinking.
Because he barely accepted the favor of the other party, he is embarrassed to refuse the invitation now.
The gophers' minions are not killed, and they may become bandits without their leader.
As for the ordinary people who were rescued, after examination and interrogation, it was found that they were indeed innocent, and they were sent by Sparta's men to a place where refugees gathered.
"Hahaha, you are really peers! I've never seen a real person before, but I seem to have heard of the legend of the sword master or something, and I thought it was just a casual nonsense! It's really extraordinary! ”
Sparta was well-dressed, from his beard to his hair, and his personality was not much different from that of ordinary men galloping on the wasteland, savage, reckless, or heroic, the difference may only be in appearance.
"It's over."
Merlin also didn't feel comfortable with the current situation, and basically used only the simplest words.
"What do you call this little brother?"
Sparta squinted again and approached the Emperor.
This man inexplicably likes to squint.
"Huang Taiyi, just a wanderer in the world."
The Emperor Taiyi also maintained an attitude of not being close or far away, although Sparta was not a very annoying person to him.
Behind an overly sweet smile is often a sharp edge.
"Huh...... It looks like a person from a big city, but it's different when it comes to talking, forget it, everyone has to have secrets! I, Lord Sparta, am also a capable person, and I know that you will definitely be wary of your kind, and it's not good to ask too much, okay, seriously, I heard that you are going to engage in crazy beasts? ”
The smell of alcohol in Sparta's body seemed to dissipate most of it immediately, and he also exhaled the cigar smoke in his mouth.
This should be an illusion.
"That's the plan."
Merlin replied lukewarmly.
"It's not good, I think it's better to forget it, even my Spartan Lord can't handle it, and several people died along the way, just the two of you, it's difficult."
Although Sparta's alcohol smell seemed to have disappeared and his speech became a little more serious, in fact, the power of alcohol could not disappear so quickly, and it still played its due role, making him unstoppable.
"You fought that thing?"
Huang Taiyi immediately noticed it.
"You don't even know that? Everyone wants the bounty offered by Loga Village, tsk, there is no way to beat it, the biggest advantage of Lord Sparta is that it is reliable, really, and does not lie! If you can't do it, you will never do it hard, huh...... It's so unpleasant...... That kind of monster can't hurt the strength of ordinary people at all. ”
Sparta seemed to be reluctantly comfortable with his failure, sighed, and began to gulp down a lot of wine, which was very considerable.
Listening to this meaning, it seems to mean that it has defense power that surpasses that of ordinary creatures.
It's not too much of a problem.
In other words, does it rely on its own defense performance and infection ability to cause such a big threat? Huang Taiyi felt that he understood a little why the mad beast was so difficult to deal with, because any attack it caused was fatal no matter what kind of damage it caused, and it was very difficult for him to be killed, and only those who were able to fight it.
From this, it can be deduced that the lethality of Sparta's * ability is not too high, and it is really difficult to have both the advantage and attack power of long-range attacks.
"I heard that the office has been closed, how can there be a bounty?"
Merlin also heard some discord in Sparta's statement.
It is precisely because of the existence of an organization directly under the local ruler that the profession of bounty hunter has not become particularly chaotic, although it is basically chaotic.
There are many examples of what it would be like for human beings to be unfettered.
"It's the village's own bounty."
Sparta opened another bottle of wine, and now in an era when it is difficult to guarantee the supply of water in many places, the strong can drink as much wine as they please, which is many times more valuable than water.
"Can a village pay such a high bounty?"
The emperor felt more and more that something was wrong, and he wanted to see something in Sparta's eyes, such as a lie, but the drunkard's mind was probably very confused, and it was difficult to detect it.
"Yes, I don't know how to tell such a boring lie, what's the benefit? Anyway, if you want to go crazy and get a beast, it's better to go over there and have a look, and you don't know where that thing is going to go in a few days, you know? The mad beast is also a living creature, and it has been running around all the time, I don't know why it doesn't seem to have changed places too much in the past few days, is it dying? Tsk, I didn't get such a good opportunity! ”
Sparta drank like an uncle who was middle-aged but facing layoffs and divorce.
"Thanks, then we're leaving."
Merlin slammed to his feet, so loud that he almost knocked over the chair he was sitting on.
"Oh, come back alive, don't be eaten by mad beasts, if you get the bounty, it's best to go back and invite me Spartan to have a drink, hahaha! It can be regarded as avenging the brothers...... Goo Goo ......"
Sparta didn't dwell on the matter of intelligence, waved his hand goodbye, and continued to gulp wine.
Huang Taiyi also followed Merlin out of the hotel, and the two of them could still hear the noise after walking a long distance.
Without further ado, now that you know the approximate location, it's best to get out as soon as possible.
After more than ten minutes.
"Lord Sparta, those two are gone."
The thin black young man, who was dressed differently from the ordinary miscellaneous soldiers, leaned into the ear of Sparta, who seemed to be napping, and whispered.
"Did you go that way?"
"Yes, Lord Sparta, the strength of these two people is probably very strong, and it may be ...... then"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if they win or lose, it has nothing to do with us, it's a big deal that we don't do anything this time, hmph, this business should come to an end."
Sparta cut a new cigar and held it in his mouth.
"Lord Sparta, there's one more piece of news......"
The thin black youth's voice became thinner.
"What? If that's the case, then we must do it as soon as possible, this group of fools only knows how to surrender to power, and the power of the firm is not comparable to us, once the people of the firm investigate over there, they will definitely betray it...... No, wait, it's dangerous to go now, it's very likely to bump into those two people, and if there's any chance, it's possible to ...... as soon as possible That's right! Isn't this an opportunity! “
As the battle plan in his heart took shape, the smiling faces of Sparta gradually became hideous.
The other side.
Three days later, Emperor Taiyi and Merlin, who had traveled day and night, arrived at what Sparta called the village of Loga.
"This village feels very different."
Merlin paused to take a sip of water.
"It's very wealthy, but is this place the main point of the trade? It's not like there's a lot of land. ”
The Emperor stood on a slightly higher position and looked out over the village.
There are various reasons for this, such as the convenience of transportation, or whether they are close to areas with abundant water sources and arable land, and whether the local leadership policies are appropriate.
But this is really only a small border village, similar to the previous ones, the significance of the existence of the fortifications is far greater than the village itself, but most of the fortifications here look very old, and only some of the facilities that are obviously recently built can be functional, which means that the village of Luojia is probably an abandoned border fortress.
As for the reason for the abandonment, there is no way to know.
Water sources exist, and if they exist, they should be able to attract residents, but can such a wealthy village be built with this little thing?
This is really suspicious.
As the distance approached, the scene in the village became clearer and clearer.
Everywhere there are well-equipped villagers, who are not very strong soldiers themselves, nor do they look like they have been trained in any way, and they have a sense of nouveau riche déjà vu.
"Is this a preparation to guard against mad beasts?"
Merlin looked at the earthen cannons erected in the middle of the village.
"It's not very similar, it feels like I'm still guarding against bandits."
Huang Taiyi also noticed this thing, a village that is not too big, and it is very strange that there are artillery cannons in it that are difficult to see.
The guards at the entrance of the village are not like those who are weak when they see ability, they can have a normal conversation, and their temperament is also a little different.
"I'm sorry, but the bounty opened by the village has been banned."
Got such news from the guards.
"Forbidden? Why? ”
Merlin asked curiously.
"It was an order from someone sent by the office, because the office has been reopened, and our village chief offered a bounty for the mad beast because his only son was killed, but now this kind of bounty without the management of the office is illegal, I'm sorry."
The guards spoke in a very organized manner, and things were explained more clearly.
"The mad beast is still not around?"
The emperor thought about it for a moment and decided to ask.
"We don't know, the first time I saw it on the other side of the mountain, I don't seem to have heard of any new events recently, if you two want to go, I can also provide a map here, but I don't guarantee whether it's still there."
The guards gave a rough indication of where the mad beast had been seen before, and gave a rough idea of which town the office was located in.
Huang Taiyi and Merlin did not enter the village to rest, and rushed directly to the target.
"Go and report to Lord Sparta, the matter has been successfully conveyed, and the two men are rushing there."
After the two of them left, the guard just now immediately gave this order to the people around them.
