Chapter 101: Invitation
Although the scar-faced strong man was slashed by a sword, he was not panicked in his heart, because he had already seen that this kid was actually just a brute standing, and his combat skills were not worth mentioning at all, a two-handed giant sword was in his hand, but he only knew how to chop from beginning to end, although it looked amazing, but in fact it was not lethal.
He knew that all he needed was a little patience...... The scar-faced strong man had already thought about it, and as soon as he had the opportunity, he would immediately arrange for his subordinates to besiege the magician.
The place in this corridor is narrow, and there is no brute force kid to protect him, even if he is powerful, he may not be able to resist the siege of more than a dozen people, besides, looking at his appearance, he should only be a low-level magician, otherwise he will not run out of magic power with a single spell, and now he has to rely on this kid with brute strength to drag himself and buy him time to recover his magic power.
What's the difference between killing a magician running out of magic and killing a chicken? That's what the scar-faced man thinks...... And then...... And he heard Sheen's roar.
This roar full of rage woke up most of the Shade Inn, at this time Sheen no longer had his previous honest demeanor, his body was already as strong as a black bear, but suddenly it was thicker again, his dark face was crazy and hideous, and the originally honest young man was full of bloodlust at this moment.
The scar-faced strong man witnessed this amazing scene, the scar on his face suddenly distorted, and although he held the scimitar tightly in his hand, he involuntarily retreated under his feet, which was a subconscious behavior, just like a wild beast would always run away involuntarily in the face of a natural enemy.
All this was far beyond his comprehension.
From a rookie with brute strength to a monster with a terrifying aura all over his body, all this is only ...... in the blink of an eye...... Give it to me! Under the unprecedented fear, the scar-faced man's voice was a little hoarse.
There was a deathly silence in the hallway, only the hoarse roar of the scar-faced man, and Sheen's heavy gasping like a monster, and the dozen or so robbers seemed to be frightened and stupid, and no one dared to move a step, just stared blankly at Sheen, watching the monster approach him step by step.
And then, there was a complete slaughter...... When he rushed into the inn earlier, the dozen or so menacing robbers were cut in half in the blink of an eye, and Sheen after the rage was like a fierce demonic beast.
It's the same pure brute force, the same is only knowing the chopping, but when the brute force is amplified to the extreme, the power brought is so terrifying, the two-handed giant sword rolls over, with a heavy sound of breaking the sky, every chop, contains endless power, no struggle, no resistance, there is just the purest killing, and the maddening sound of chopping, in an instant, pieces of blood splashed, dyeing a tree-lined inn bright red.
Witnessing this horrific scene, everyone felt a sense of suffocation.
The strong man with the scarface was completely dumbfounded, and he could only watch the killing.
The guests in the inn were stunned, and knelt at the door one by one, forgetting to stand up.
The middle-aged man who claimed to be a Fran nobleman didn't even blink his eyes, his mouth was wide open when he was knocked out of gold teeth, and his chin was stained with blood, and he didn't bother to reach out to wipe it.
The Wind Scratch Maid had an expression of disbelief on her face, looking at Sheen in a state of rage, and then looking back at Lin Li, who looked at Lin Li with a relaxed face, as if she had seen an elephant with a rat's belly enlarged.
As the blood-stained two-handed greatsword fell again, the last survivor finally fell, and the corridor that had been clean before was littered with corpses, most of them still holding mutilated weapons in their hands, blood gushing out of the huge wound, slowly flowing down the corridor to the downstairs...... The dozen or so people who rushed to the second floor before were only scar-faced strong men in the blink of an eye.
To this day, he still can't believe that all this is true.
The strength that he had always been proud of, in front of this monster with a two-handed giant sword, was so weak, and endless fear surged from the bottom of his heart, and he felt for the first time that death was so close to him...... As Sheehan slowly approached him, the scar-faced man completely collapsed.
"Plop ......"
Then everyone saw that the invincible bandit leader knelt straight to the ground: "Don't kill me...... Don't kill me......"
The two-handed greatsword rested on his neck, but it didn't slash down.
The berserk potion only strengthens the **power and stimulates the killing ** in the heart**, and it will not blind the mind of the user, although Sheen has killed more than a dozen people in a row, his mind is still sober, and after the two-handed giant sword stopped on the neck of the scar-faced strong man, Sheen cast an inquiring glance at Lin Li again.
"Mr. Magician...... Please...... Let me go......" The scar-faced strong man was not stupid, and when he saw the monster's gaze, he suddenly understood that the magician who had been standing at the door was the one who could decide his life and death, so the object of his begging for mercy soon became Lin Li.
It's a pity that he doesn't understand who Lin Li is...... That's the character who didn't hesitate to kill a fourteenth-level magician.
"You're too late to beg for mercy." Dropping such a sentence, Lin Li walked downstairs without looking back, the Shade Inn was no longer able to live, so many people died overnight, the bloody atmosphere was too heavy, living in such a hotel, I would definitely have nightmares.
"Ahh
When Lin Li walked to the side of the carriage, another scream came from the inn...... After a while, Sheehan also came out of the inn.
After the previous killing, the clothes on his body had already been soaked with blood, but Sheen had been hunting demonic beasts with his father since he was a child, and he had long been accustomed to seeing blood, and his family was not good since he was a child, so he was reluctant to throw away this clothes, so he walked out of the hotel in a slimy bloody suit.
"Sheehan, put this on first." Lin Li searched in the Ring of Immersturm, but couldn't find a suitable outfit for Sheen, so he finally had to pick out a rune robe and let him settle it first.
"Oh......" Sheen honestly took the rune robe, and looked at it with some curiosity, only then he tore off the bloody robe on his body three or two times, and put the wide mage robe on, but his strong figure like a black bear was really unfriendly, and the originally loose rune robe was put on him, like a thief's nocturnal bodysuit...... "Let's do it first, I'll take you to buy a new one when it's dawn." There was nothing Lin Li could do for a while, the figures of the two were too far apart, and now the lights in Blackstone Town were blind, and even if they had money, they couldn't find a place to buy clothes.
"Mr. Ferry...... The two bottles of potions you gave me to drink......" After Sheen put on his rune robe, his expression showed a little hesitation, he wanted to ask what those two bottles of potions were, but he was afraid of making Mr. Ferrey angry.
"The yellow bottle is a stone skin elixir, which can make your skin extremely tough, and the red bottle is a berserk potion, which greatly increases the strength of the body and stimulates your inner killing**."
"Oh......"
"Do you know why I'm letting you go?"
"I don't know." Sheehan shook his head honestly: "I only know that Mr. Ferry's words must be right. ”
"......" Lin Li smiled helplessly, but did not continue.
The talent of this honest young man, even Gray's can't help but admire, he shouldn't just be a low-level adventurer.
Although he was only nominally hired, Lin Li, intentionally or unintentionally, still kept providing opportunities for Sheen, for no reason, and he didn't want anything in return, but he simply couldn't bear to see him waste his talent, just like when Anduin helped him on the Luoyue Mountain Range.
Sometimes the improvement of strength is actually as simple as that.
Non-stop fighting, non-stop grinding.
For Lin Li, this night was really a long one, first he was tormented by Sheen's snoring for most of the night, and then he was woken up by the wind scratching the maid knocking on the door, and before he could return to the room, the people of the Blood Wolf Thieves came again...... Thinking that it was not far from dawn anyway, Lin Li didn't bother to look for a place again, so he leaned his head on the carriage, intending to mix up the night first.
"Mr. Magician!"
Who knew that he was just a little sleepy, but someone knocked on the carriage gently.
"What's the matter?" Annoyed, Lin Li poked his head out of the carriage and asked very unfriendly.
Then he found out that this guy who disturbed people's dreams turned out to be a fat man who had a gold tooth knocked out before, Lin Li remembered that he seemed to call himself a Francois nobleman just now?
The aristocratic fat man saw that Lin Li's face was not good, and his eyes suddenly showed a little fear, he could see clearly just now, this companion of Mr. Magician killed more than a dozen people in the blink of an eye, he didn't want to anger these two guys who killed people without blinking because of a wrong sentence, so he carefully considered the words, and then squeezed out a flattering smile and asked: "Hello, respected Mr. Magician, can I take the liberty of asking, are you planning to go to Orana?" ”
"Yes."
"Great!" Although Lin Li's attitude was cold, his affirmative answer still made the noble fat man happy, and he came over very mysteriously: "Mr. Magician, please allow me to introduce myself, my name is Dugal, a nobleman of the Kingdom of France." ”
"What does this have to do with me?"
"Because, I'm going to hire you, of course...... And that powerful companion of yours. ”
"Hire...... Hire me? Lin Li almost choked on saliva.
"Yes, Mr. Magician, I am willing to hire two of them at a high price to escort me back to Orana, and the remuneration will never be less than four figures......"
"......" Lin Li rolled his eyes, and was paid no less than four figures, a thousand gold coins or two thousand gold coins?
"Well, that's a good pay, isn't it?" The aristocratic fat man's voice was a little proud, he thought that he would not be mistaken, although the strength of these two people was very strong, but they must be very tight financially, you look at this magician, the mage robe he wears is old and old, and he can't even take out a decent staff, not to mention his companion who is more powerful than a demonic beast, a piece of leather armor has been worn for at least ten years, and although the two-handed giant sword has killed more than a dozen people, how can he not see it with the fat man's eyes, it is all because of his strong strength, Even with a stick, you can stab a dozen robbers to death.
With their economic situation, how can they not be tempted in front of a thousand gold coins?
Mr. Magician did not react, and the fat man was not in a hurry to urge, in his opinion it was just a means to raise the price.
"Three thousand gold coins, what do you think?"
"Three thousand gold coins? You're really too generous......" Lin Li's smile was a little sarcastic, but in the eyes of the confident fat man, the smile was full of unexpectedly excited excitement.
"You promised?"
"This aristocratic gentleman ......"
Just when Lin Li was about to refuse, someone walked towards the carriage again.
"Mr. Magician!"
And this time it was the low-level adventurer who had a few teeth knocked out, this guy was worse than the fat nobleman, the fat nobleman was knocked out of only a gold tooth, but he was beaten out of a few teeth, at this time when he shouted the words "Mr. Magician", there was more or less air leakage in his mouth, and he was as awkward as he heard it.
"Damn, don't let people sleep?" Lin Li scolded secretly in his heart, and the look on his face was already very unhappy.
"Hello, Dear Mr. Magician." The night in Blackstone Town was shrouded, and the carriage was surrounded by darkness, and the mercenary whose teeth had been knocked out, how could he see the look on Lin Li's face, and he came over in a hurry, ignoring the fat nobleman next to him, and introduced himself to himself: "My name is Hank, a member of the Silver Hand Mercenary Group." ”
"What's the matter?" Lin Li gritted his teeth, and worked hard to suppress the urge to beat people.
"That's right, Mr. Magician, I would like to take the liberty of asking, are you interested in joining the mercenary group?"
