Much more prosperous than expected.

It's not likely to be intimidated when you see Merlin's broadsword, but there are also guys who can whistle, gathered together in twos and threes, and it seems that they all have weapons on their bodies, and they don't know where the bandits or bounty hunters are.

Those who have strength will have privileges.

It may not be suitable in big cities where the strong are gathered, but here it is no problem.

As long as they have the strength, they can come and go freely, and the refugees without the strength can only prostrate on the ground in swallowing their anger.

Huang Taiyi also saw a lot of refugees, these people were huddled in some specially built sheds, with special people to take care of them, and there was also a small amount of food, and they didn't know what would happen next.

As pitiful as it is, it's something that happens anywhere, and compared to it, Longyin's village is nothing short of a paradise.

"Big brother, it doesn't seem that identification is needed in this place yet."

"You can see that generally speaking, the first target is definitely a hotel or something."

Huang Taiyi said very confidently.

Although it is common sense learned in the game.

"Yes, there's always a lot of people there, and you can stay there."

Merlin couldn't have known where the Emperor's distorted "common sense" came from, but the hotel here did serve a lot of purpose, at least as a good place to exchange information.

"Have you seen the office?"

The Emperor has yet to find a similar place, which is said to deal with bounty-related matters.

"I haven't found it either, so let's look for it later."

After all, the size of the town is really not small.

The hotel is easy to find, as there are many oddly shaped cars parked in front of the store, and they are also guarded.

Very professional, even more professional than the guards outside, already armed with bows and crossbows.

"Oh...... Welcome ......"

It's obviously a hotel, and it's not a big sister with a proud chest to say the word "welcome" but a big janitor with five big and three thick, which is also a helpless thing.

"Can I exchange things inside?"

Merlin is now showing the negotiating skills that he must learn to survive in this world.

"Yes, yes, there's plenty of variety."

The janitor didn't dare to snub Merlin in the slightest.

"Big brother, the car is left here first, and you, if I find out that something has been stolen in a while, I should know what the result is, right? If there's anything you can't figure out, just let me know. ”

Merlin took out two cans of dried meat from the car and threw them to the nearest janitor, took out a few bottles of wine and handed them to Huang Taiyi one by one, of course, with the other hand to hold the handle of the knife.

You need this kind of stuff wherever you go.

"Yes! We don't have thieves here! Whoever dares to touch the car must be slaughtered and skinned on the spot! ”

The janitor was overjoyed, and it seemed that the price paid was sufficient.

At the same time, they glanced at Huang Taiyi with strange eyes, full of doubt, scrutiny, fear and many other emotions, which was really uncomfortable.

Because he doesn't look like a strong man, he is called a big brother?

It's better to call it another way.

Thinking so, Huang Taiyi and Merlin entered the hotel together.

It seems to have traveled to the west of the big cousin era, and it is very much in the style of that time.

The drunk, who didn't know what he had drunk and had a stiff tongue and rolled his eyes, was casually thrown into a corner, and most of the people sitting inside were very strong in appearance and imposing, and the door was huge enough to allow an extraordinary hunk to enter.

As a stranger, the duo attracted a lot of attention as soon as they came in.

Most of the eyes swept and retracted directly, which was a rare caution.

"Welcome, Fresh Face."

The innkeeper was a white-haired man of about fifty or sixty years old, with thick arms like a wrestler, and a neat and clean white shirt, sitting alone at the bar.

The entire wall behind the bar is made up of a structure that resembles a bank safe.

"Big brother, give me one."

"Oh."

The princess took a bottle of wine to Merlin.

Bang –

Merlin slightly roughly placed the bottle on the table in front of the boss.

"Good thing, it's genuine, what do you want to exchange? I'm a serious shop here, and I don't have any medicine or ...... Well, it doesn't look like you're the kind of idiot looking for a woman, and the information is there. ”

The boss picked up the bottle without changing his face, looked at it carefully, and then raised his head.

"Who's the most valuable person in this neighborhood?"

Merlin has completely become the kind of temperament that people who can't live in a landless place are used to, which makes Huang Taiyi feel a little fresh, and secretly wants how to learn to learn.

"It's a mad beast, a deserter in the army before, but I advise you not to go, it's not easy, even if I know today, five groups of people have died, and I don't know, if there is a monster's head, you can change it here."

It's not really a firm, but it seems to have a say in some things.

"How? See my big brother? Can't the two of us handle it? ”

"Humph......"

Huang Taiyi felt that he should have learned fifty percent of this temperament, so he pretended to raise his newly engaged cane and lightly touched it on the bar.

Sharp ice piles sprung up like mushrooms and stopped a few centimeters from the boss's chest.

"It's amazing, can you give this to me?"

The boss is worthy of being a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, not only did not panic, but instead started the idea of icicles.

"Whatever you want, the information of the mad beast, what to exchange?"

After thinking about it, the emperor still broke up a sentence into three paragraphs, which seemed to be more in line with the character design...... Wait, when did someone set up something like this?

"Whew...... Well, since you're interested, I can't help it, but I shouldn't charge money for this information now, so you can wait a few days. ”

The boss took out a small hammer and began to dismantle the ice frozen on the table, dismantling it so carefully that he refused to let go of the broken ice.

"What's going on?"

Merlin asked with a frown.

"Reliable news, the above is going to start, now the office is not open, and there is no such a big bounty, wait a minute, it is estimated that in the next few days, I will not go to other places to see if there is an office open, I don't think it will be possible."

The shopkeeper's words do have a point.

After all, it is now in the period of power transfer, and many things are still in chaos, I believe that if it happened during the reign of the King of Beasts, it would never have been delayed for so long, but this has nothing to do with the forces that came to grab the territory, and it cannot be blamed, it can only be said that it is force majeure.

At this time, if the boss oversteps something, the result can be imagined.

"Just change some food, I'll discuss it with my eldest brother first."

Merlin handed the wine to the boss.

In these years, there are still a large number of people who have a demand for alcohol, these people do not need to worry about food and clothing, and there are groups of refugees outside, and they can still eat and drink in hotels, which gives Huang Taiyi a new understanding of the ecology of bounty hunters.

The value of a bottle of wine was quite high, and after exchanging a lot of cans and biscuits, the two of them found a fairly secluded corner to sit down and rest, and from time to time they looked at each other.

"It's really strange to be called big brother."

As soon as the emperor wanted Merlin to change his name, he acquiesced to the identity of the boss and couldn't afford it.

"Huh? Is there a problem? ”

Merlin asked as he chewed on the hard biscuit.

"It's not a problem, but I feel like there's a relationship between superiors and subordinates, and our relationship is definitely much better than this."

"That's ...... I don't think it's a big deal, hehehe, in fact, I just think my eldest brother is very much like my family, and I don't know why I think so. ”

"Hmm...... Family, it's a little ......."

Huang Taiyi actually has a sense of intimacy with Merlin, who used to think that it might be because he was too lonely, but now he feels that it doesn't seem to be entirely the case.

It's like...... To use an inappropriate analogy, there seems to be some wonderful fate.

"That'...... Brothers? ”

"Isn't that about the same! Forget it, at least a little more equal than the big brother. ”

Huang Taiyi rubbed his temples that were a little swollen, in short, whether it was a big brother or a brother, why did it seem to be in the extreme? This is a flag, generally speaking, in the setting related to the pole, brothers are going to kill each other.

Just think about it, absolutely impossible.

"Brother!"

"Yes, I can hear you."

"Brother! Hee-hee! ”

"You're a kid...... Don't call out for joy...... Shh......h

The emperor was so worried that her eyes and nose shrank together, and she was about to wave her hand, but her ears caught a strange sound.

"It's like a howl...... Monsters? ”

"Go out and see! Eat! ”

Huang Taiyi dug out the half-eaten cans and stuffed them into his mouth, and even the residue was washed clean with water.

During this period, many people who like to watch the excitement have rushed out of the hotel, not knowing what to watch, but the boss is as calm as ever.

"Boss, what's going on outside?"

Merlin grabbed the broadsword that was erected at his side.

"It's a execution, probably."

The boss, as always, wiped the cups and bowls in his hands without raising his head.

"Execution?"

The emperor frowned, this is a bit powerful, I'm afraid that if I catch any prisoner, I will be beheaded on the spot?

"Recently, it's often a monster that has been caught, and after killing it in public, it will come here with its head to exchange money, I think this practice is boring, but there are many young people who like it."

"Big ...... Brothers? ”

Merlin looked into the eyes of the Emperor.

Although he changed his words halfway, Huang Taiyi almost squirted out the water, how is the big brother?

"Let's go."

Huang Taiyi tried his best to suppress the urge to cough and grabbed his cane, and by this time only half of the people in the store were left.

"Welcome back, don't challenge the mad beasts."

The boss greeted lukewarmly and continued to bow his head and do things.

is worthy of being an elder with rich experience in life, and compared to the big guy who roams the wilderness, Huang Taiyi hopes to become a person like the shopkeeper when he gets older.

The car was parked outside, and the person in charge of the guard was also quite responsible, so he didn't go to see the excitement.

With the car, the two headed towards the place where a group of people were gathered.

It can be judged from the shouts that the onlookers are obviously happy, many of them are customers in the store, and after drinking, they are even more unscrupulous, shouting everything.

Several rope loops hung from the shelves erected on the site, and some of them were tied to the side, one of them being a mutated beast.

But the rest seem to be just ordinary people, basically dressed as refugees.

It looks like they're going to be executed together.
