Soon Agni was brought to the chief examiner of the trial.

"You're a Kestrel Ranger, yes," the chief examiner tugged at his glasses, "but are you sure you're going to challenge the Silver Wolf?" ”

"What? Is there anything wrong? Agni asked.

"It's not inappropriate, it's just that no one has accepted this trial for a long time, and the silver wolf has a strange temper and is very difficult to get along with, and he often doesn't appear in the mercenary guild for a few months. Although he is nominally a trial examiner, no one knows what state he is in now, and whether he is still suitable for this position. The chief examiner clearly had a strong opinion of Silver Wolf's maverick behavior.

Hearing him say this, Agni also had a bad premonition: "This is arranged by my mentor Cui Leke, it should be his reason!" ”

Hearing that it was arranged by Tryek, the chief examiner's face softened a little, "Since it was arranged by Trylek's Saker Ranger, it may also have his reasons." The silver wolf happens to be at home now, so I can only trouble you to run away, this guy, almost no one can call him, and I want to call him to the mercenary guild to give you a trial, I'm afraid it's more difficult than ascending to the sky. ”

"Okay, then I'll go for it." Blaze nodded, "So how do I complete the trial?" ”

"If this guy is afraid that he will play tricks and don't give you a seal, then the formal procedures will be waived. Well, he's got silver-gray hair, and he looks special, you just have to pull one of his hairs and give him a hair. The chief examiner had an idea.

“……”

……

Agni walked out of the mercenary guild a little depressed, holding a note with the address of the silver wolf in his hand.

"Hermit's Lake Neighborhood No. 7"

"Hey, it's really a toss......" Agni looked at the map, the road was quite far, it was already afternoon, the sun was slanting in the west, and the Hermit's Lake neighborhood was in the shade, "How can anyone like to live in this kind of place......

He didn't know how to take public transportation, and he couldn't ride a horse, so he could only spread his legs and run all the way to the Hermit's Lake neighborhood.

Fortunately, in the game, the human physique is far stronger than reality, otherwise I am afraid that only marathon runners can afford to run this distance.

The flames ran wildly, and in order to hurry, they even sometimes had to take shortcuts from the roof or under the bridge, and there was a lot of shouting.

After a lot of tossing, I finally came to the Hermit's Lake neighborhood. As the name suggests, the main part of the neighborhood is a jewel-like lake under a cliff, surrounded by a large field of trees and shrubs, and a few houses looming in the shade of trees.

Because of its shady location, the neighborhood looks a little dark, and the sound of pelicans can be heard from time to time, which makes the fire feel a little oozing.

"Well, it should be here......" Agni looked up, and suddenly didn't want to go in.

It's a two-story house with an attic, just like the one in movies that is often haunted, and it's pitch black through the slender windows, and a faint glimmer of light can be seen, which is even more terrifying. There are a lot of creepers climbing on the outer wall, it seems that they have not been cleaned for a long time, and many broken walls and shutters are also left alone.

The house has a garden, so naturally don't expect anything, it is overgrown with weeds, and it has grown to a meter high. You can see that there were two beautiful rose beds in front of the porch, but now they are also full of broken pottery shards.

"Anyone?" Agni screamed in some fear, but no one responded to him, and even if there was a response, Agni was not sure if it was human.

The fire knocked on the rusty iron door, making an unpleasant creak, and seeing that there was still no response, he pushed it open and walked in.

After crossing the barely sembled gravel road, and through the tattered flower beds, the fire came to the porch, and the main entrance of the house was already in tatters, and no one had repaired the holes one by one, allowing the cold wind to pour in.

Agni really wondered if there were any living people living in such a place.

"Anyone?" Polite, Agni knocked on the door, but still no one responded, "Silver wolf? ”

The fire pushed open the door, and suddenly a musty smell gushed out, choking him to tears, "cough, cough, cough...... If I go, can this place really be inhabited? ”

The hall was also pitch black, with only the faint glow of the slender windows, and the rotting floor creaking with the footsteps of the fire.

There is no sign of human existence.

"Silver wolf?" Agni spoke again, but still didn't respond, and now he felt more and more that there was either no one here, or it was just a home for undead creatures.

Just as Agni wanted to continue exploring the first floor, there was a sudden sound of wine bottles rolling off from upstairs, and the gurgling sound was particularly noticeable in this environment.

Upstairs? Agni swallowed his spat and creaked up the equally rotten staircase.

Standing on the floor on the second floor, Agni was a little worried that the floor would suddenly collapse and threw himself to the first floor, and he saw a piece of the floor fall into the hall on the first floor with his own eyes!

Calming down, Agni saw a faint light ahead, and walked cautiously forward. In this room, he finally found the right master.

It was a middle-aged man with silver-gray hair and a scruffy beard, lying on a sofa like no bones, he was wearing a shirt that had not been washed for an unknown amount of time, full of oil, the sleeves were casually rolled up on his elbows, the buttons of the collar were also buttoned at will, and the leather pants were dripping with wine stains of unknown color.

When Agni saw him, he was carrying a bottle in one hand and a cigar in the other, squinting his eyes and snorting from time to time in his nose. A candle was lit on the candlestick, and the faint light of the candle barely made it clear, reflecting the liquid that was swaying in the bottle.

"Silver wolf?" Agni asked.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man made a deep voice in his nose and turned his head, "Who! "The voice was unusually hoarse.

"Well, well, I'm here to take your test." Seeing this decadent drunk, Agni felt a little hopeless, but he still said politely.

"What a hell of a trial! How I don't know......" The silver wolf turned his head, shoved the cigar into his mouth, and took a hard breath.

"The Mercenary Guild should have sent you a message." The corners of Agni's mouth twitched, and he said speechlessly.

"Oh...... Mercenary Guild......" Silver Wolf spat out a smoke ring, "I seem to have my name there, didn't I say that I was very idle and had nothing to do?" Why did you throw a broken trial for Lao Tzu again? ”

"Actually, I don't want to," Agni scratched his head, "it was arranged by my mentor in the Ranger Guild, Traek. ”

"Trelek......" Silver Wolf looked again, "You're a Ranger?" ”

"Yes, I'm a newly hired Ranger." Agni nodded.

"Where's the badge?"

Agni flashed its kestrel badge.

"Hey! Really, what is this kid's idea......" Silver Wolf muttered, then waved his hand like a fly, "Go back, I won't give you a trial, and I won't sign the power of attorney!" ”

"It's okay, the chief examiner has already expected it, so I just need to pick up something and go." Agni had to applaud the chief examiner for his thoughtfulness.

"No, get out! I won't give you anything! The silver wolf said scoldingly.

"In that case, I'll take it myself." Agni assumed a battle stance.

The silver wolf sneered, biting his cigar and squeezing out his voice, "Okay, here you go!" ”

"Offended!" Agni drew his dagger and trotted to the couch!
