"Dambert." Groledon's eyes burned with hidden anger, "I haven't seen you for eight years, and you're still as unsighted as ever." ”

"If a certain bereaved dog that abandoned his teammates and stole his life is worthy of being called a human." The red-haired red scorpion leader said sarcastically without hesitation.

Immediately, as soon as his words fell, several members of the adventuring group who followed him looked at the old man and burst into laughter.

The old thief frowned, but this time he suppressed the urge to pull the dagger from his waist.

This is the Adventurers' Guild, not the street taverns of the ghetto.

Gloryden didn't intend to cause trouble in the Guild's mission hall, and his sane mind made him understand that the Red Scorpion Adventure was now the number one group in Twilight City, and his own actions now were related to the future of Urs and Thea in the adventurer's circle.

The old man maintained his basic composure, and quickly extinguished the anger that loomed in his pupils.

He admitted this loss of face.

However, what he didn't expect for a while was-

"Sir, I will not allow you to insult my companion with such evil words!" The silver-haired wolf-eared girl suddenly passed by him, and her petite but brave body stood between the people of the Red Scorpion Adventure Group and him with the slightly fluttering hem of her white robe, "You must apologize to Mr. Grolayden!" ”

Thea didn't know what kind of frustration and contradictions existed between Dambert and Gloleiden, but she was obviously aware of the deep malice shown to Gloleden in every word and deed of these so-called large groups of adventurers in front of her.

It's as if these ill-intentioned guys are trying to completely crush the old thief on a spiritual level, so that he will never be able to recover and become a wasted person.

This extreme malice had been seen once in a gang fight in Northland Helmet City as a child.

Dambert looked at Xia in surprise, noticed the wolf ears on the girl's head, and immediately smiled at the corner of his mouth, and continued to sarcastically at the old man who was blocked by the girl: "Is this the pet you use to mediate pressure again?" And dress her up as a priest? Good enough taste, old friend. ”

"Hahahahaha......"

The mocking laughter continued.

In the face of this round of verbal provocation by the Red Scorpion Adventure Group, Xia still stood fearlessly in front of Dambert and waited for the other party's apology, but Gloriden couldn't bear it anymore at this moment.

The old man's usually slightly obscene behavior is just a shell to hide his heart, and his character is actually very self-respecting.

An old man who is almost fifty years old, actually has the face to hide behind a little girl and is silent?

Are you kidding!

So he suddenly raised his voice: "Dambert, watch your words!" ”

"Oh? An old dog barked at me? Dambert tilted his head and folded his arms with interest, "But I don't see how many teeth your dog has left in his mouth, can you open your mouth wider?" ”

"You-"

Gloridon's eyes widened through gritted teeth, and a green tendon immediately burst out from the corner of his forehead.

He was enraged again, only for a slightly different reason than the one he had faced Urs a few days earlier.

But at that moment, the young man's hand came up from the side and pressed his shoulder.

"Urs, are you trying to stop me from teaching these rude people a good lesson?" The old thief had reached to his waist and held the hand at the hilt of a short sword.

He turned his head to the side, a swelling of anger at Urs's scarred face.

Urs met his eyes, gave him an expressionless look, and motioned for him to calm down first.

Then, the young man let go, and at the same time let Thea step back from the old man, and he stepped over the two of them to the other side.

In his mind's mind, the Red Scorpion Adventure Group during the Year of the Candle Flame did have the peak of a smash hit in Twilight, this large adventuring team had the financial resources and prestige that other small groups could not match, and although its current leader, the red-headed Dambert Kerchas, was usually arrogant and domineering, but the actions of this adventure group never violated the laws and regulations of Twilight.

They know how to grasp and exploit the size and loopholes of the rules, and there are many people in the adventurer circle who have a lot of opinions about them, but they can't grasp them, and they have the financial resources to maintain a sophisticated equipment configuration for the top personnel in the regiment.

Although no one knows where the money and materials of this adventure group come from, the newcomer adventurers who are slightly capable and eager to get ahead quickly are easily attracted and accepted by them, so that their team always maintains a high level in terms of the number and quality of members.

The existence of this team can almost be said to be a typical embodiment of the evil camp of order in human society.

Since the fall of the Thorn Adventure Troupe, the Red Scorpion Adventure Group has risen rapidly over the past eight years, and is now indeed the largest group in Twilight City.

But so what?

The first large group? He smiled coldly.

Then he stopped, stood about two and a half meters away from the other party, looked at the red-haired man at the head and asked, "Are you the red-headed Dambert?" ”

Urs's tall stature has a natural deterrent when facing ordinary people.

Dambert and the other members of the party he brought with him stopped laughing, and the red-haired man in steel armor put away the contempt on his face and glanced at the imprint pattern on the side of the young man's neck.

Shackles and Shields - Slave knights of the Golden Warbler Empire.

As the leader of a large team, he was well-informed enough to recognize the sign, and then raised a little vigilance to stare at the young man and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"A two-star nobody." Urs looked at him, "So the red-haired monkey, do you dare to duel me?" ”

When the words fell, he also raised his chin in the same way as the other party had before, and his eyes subtly picked at him.

Dambert has a thinner face, and the red-haired monkey is another nickname given to him by a member of the Thorn Adventure Party in the past.

The onlookers in the hall of the association exploded in an instant-

Someone was immediately frightened by Urs: "Oh my God, this big boy is dead, he dares to openly mention the nickname of the red head in front of so many people!" ”

There are also people who keenly grasp the main point of the dialogue between the two sides and remind the former: "Slow down, don't you care about the question of nicknames or not, didn't you hear that guy say that he wants to duel?" Duel! ”

"However, Twilight has made it clear that adventurers who cause trouble in any corner of the city will be blacklisted in the city......

"But hasn't the lord of the castle always acquiesced in this situation? Disputes between adventurers and adventurers can be resolved through duels, as long as they do not kill anyone. ”

"So...... Oh, the duel? Haha, the god of war is on Wall! The gloating do-gooders were suddenly excited.

Immediately afterwards, the cries of heckling were piled up like a tidal wave: "Then for the sake of victory and glory - Dambert, give this big man a little color!" ”

"He's really just a two-star rookie, I just saw his badge!"

"Let's see for ourselves the strength of the current leader of the Red Scorpion Adventures, Dambert! Don't say you're scared! ”

"Duel! Duel! Duel! ”
