Chapter III. Witcher = Poor
Nero intuitively felt that Li Hao was waiting for him here, and in fact, he was here to confirm some things with his own eyes, and by the way, he would contact Nero again to see if there was a chance to use him to infiltrate the Demon Sword Knight Order.
Li Hao drained the remaining wine in the cup in one gulp, took out a small gold bar and put it on the table as a wine fee, "I just arrived at this place, and I don't have the currency of this area, so it's okay to settle the bill with gold bars, right?" ”
The bar owner looked at Li Hao in surprise and said, "A glass of wine can't be used so much, if the guests don't bring cash, this glass of wine will be considered a good thing for me to invite you." ”
"No need." Li Hao got up, pretended to be casual and glanced at Nero's bandaged right arm hanging around his neck, and said, "It's rare to meet a 'fellow clansman', and the rest of the money will be deposited with you and invited him to drink." ”
Although Li Hao didn't say it explicitly, both the boss and Nero knew that the 'clansmen and compatriots' he was referring to must be Nero! The similar characteristics and characteristics between him and Li Hao, it is not surprising that people who don't know the situation think of them as two brothers.
Nero: "...."Who is this guy?" And what do you mean by so-called compatriots?!
After Li Hao finished saying that, he got up and left directly, and he didn't give Nero a chance to ask..... Is Nero's right arm already demonized? Then it looks like Uncle Ding is about to arrive.
He remembered that Nero's right arm was only injured by the demon's claw a month before the opening plot of Devil May Cry 4, and after the infection, the demonic power hidden in his right arm was completely stimulated, and then it became a 'ghost hand', so although I don't know how long his hand has been like that, but in short, the plot is about to officially open, but it can be determined.
Walking out of the tavern, when the door of the tavern slowly rebounded and closed, Li Hao instantly removed the double shield of the shadow cloak and the heart net, and at the same time mobilized his magic power to deliberately emit the demonic aura on his body.....
Nero, who was frowning and looking at Li Hao's back, suddenly had a stagnant expression, his eyes widened suddenly, he seemed to sense something, the right arm under the heavy bandage suddenly began to beat, and the pulse gradually intensified, becoming more and more intense, and even made him feel a trace of pain.
"Demons....?" Nero whispered so that the tavernkeeper on the side would not hear him.
The boss, John, didn't hear what Nero said, so he asked, "Nero, what did you say?" ”
"Ahh It's nothing? Maybe I'm feeling wrong. ”
Nero's brows furrowed again, and his eyes flickered as he watched the door of the bar slowly bounce back into place, watching Li Hao's figure disappear from his sight.
Am I really feeling wrong? After all, that guy was sitting next to me just now, but I didn't feel anything at the time.... If it was a demon, I had already sensed it before I entered the tavern?
But the reaction above his right arm seemed to deny his thoughts, and the pain on his right arm did not reverse at all, but became more and more intense, combined with Li Hao's sentence 'compatriot'..... Nero couldn't put his mind at ease.
Nero's eyes narrowed, he picked up a large glass of ale, raised his head and drank it in one gulp, and then got up and chased out, that guy was so strange that he cared very much about it, and he couldn't let it go, in that case, then just chase after him and ask that guy clearly!
The boss, John, raised his hand and shouted, "Ah, Nero! You haven't paid yet! ”
"Didn't that guy say he'll invite me to drink for the rest of the money? You can't drink a gold bar with a glass of ale and a glass of rum, right? Remember, I'll deposit the rest of the money into my account, and I'll come back to drink it later! Before Nero could finish speaking, the man had already walked out of the tavern.
Well, as a demon hunter, money is destined to have nothing to do with them, whether it is Uncle Ding or Nero, they can all be called poor ghosts..... Because the remuneration they receive after completing the commission is often not enough to compensate for the damage and losses caused by their battles, and Uncle Ding and Nero are not the kind of guys who rely on strength to do whatever they want, so poverty is almost inevitable!
Witcher = poor, this is simply an iron rule of rules! So as a poor ghost, Nero could only drink the most ordinary ale wine, and now someone finally saved a sum of money for him in advance, even if the person's origin is unknown and his identity is a mystery, he still gladly accepts it.
On the other side, Li Hao turned around and turned into a remote alley, turned his head to look behind him, and said to himself, "Nero should also catch up, right?" ”
He was sure that Nero would definitely catch up, not that he had such a deep grasp of Nero's character, but.... He had done so much on purpose, how could Nero not be affected at all? In such a situation, I am afraid that anyone will be concerned about catching up.
Anyway, let's get out of the city first, in case we get into a fight with that guy for some reason, and it won't be good to attract the people of the Demon Sword Knight Order.
Thinking of this, Li Hao immediately sped up, walked all the way to the remote path, and soon went out of the city, until he came to a wilderness three kilometers away from the city, he stopped, picked a pleasing tree on the side of the road at random, jumped on the branch and sat down, quietly waiting for Nero's arrival.
He wasn't worried that Nero would lose or not find himself, that guy had been hunting demons alone since a few years ago, and there was absolutely nothing to say about his tracking skills, and Li Hao didn't deliberately hide any traces along the way, so it was impossible for that guy not to find someone from here.
Five minutes later, Nero chased after him, Li Hao hooked the corner of his mouth, jumped down from the branch, and said with a smile: "Your tracking skills don't seem to be full yet, but I've been waiting for you for nearly five minutes." ”
"Sure enough, you deliberately showed up at the bar today, and then deliberately brought me here!" Nero turned his head to look at the scene of the nearby wilderness, and said with a sneer, "By the way, even if you want to find someone to meet, won't you pick a better place?" It's not a good place.
There are no knights like this to patrol the garrison, but there must be demons. ”
"I know." Li Hao spread his hands, "You want to say the words of the devil..... Aren't there just two standing here now? Even though I'm both half-blooded demons, it's just ....."
Nero glanced at Li Hao with a sharp look, "What are you talking about?" Who's the Devil?! ”
Li Hao asked rhetorically, "Isn't what I mean clear enough?" Besides, what's your own situation, don't you have AC numbers in your heart? You are the blood of the Spartan demons! ”
