Chapter 25: Eight Years
Eight years have passed in a flash, and I am no longer 17 years old.
Under the guidance of black and white, he can no longer basically control the bloodline of Huangjing hidden in his body, and his strength has made a qualitative leap.
Of course, it's not just that he has grown, but the strength of the other seven people, Red Hitomi, Nahasio, Green, Guy, Tsukushi, Poni, and Cornelia, has also greatly improved.
Looking at the eight people who have grown rapidly, Gozzi is also full of relief.
"Goo... A large flock of white doves surrounded him, he stood out surrounded by a flock of white pigeons, sitting on the bank of a small river, holding a handful of buds in his hand, feeding the pigeons intently, his long white hair up to his shoulder, a white bandage covering his right eye, and a white gown. Nahasiu was still sitting on a boulder reading a book, and his red pupils were lying on the other side of the river, as if there was something in the river......
"Huh" from a piece of grass next to the red pupil out of an S-class dangerous planting tiger, two front elbows and the barbs growing near the Tianling cover, as if very violent, towards the red pupil flew over, the red pupil seemed to have already noticed, picked up the Tong Yi text beside him, and jumped lightly to the back of the ground tiger, Tong Yi text directly took the throat of the earth tiger, "Bang" its huge body slammed on the ground.
"How's it going? Boss, Captain? "Red Pupil braged to Nahaxiu and no longer showing off, although Nahaxiu's ranking is one level lower than that of Nahaxiu, but he is the brain of the whole team." It's very good, S-class dangerous farming tiger, just this one is enough for the two of us. No more praise was given to the red pupils, but the attention was still on the pigeon.
"Miscellaneous fish, miscellaneous fish are going to win you!" Nahasiu said to Poni in the river.
"Really, it's not your bad idea, Captain, where will it be ...... this season" Boni poked her head out of the river and complained to Nahasiu, when suddenly, a water monster appeared behind her and was about to swallow Poni in one gulp.
"Really, I'm here just after I finished speaking......" Bonnie was very relaxed, although he was inconvenient to move in the water, but a beautiful back kick, kicked the monster out, the monster's head hit the shore hard, it was already dead and could not die anymore, but it was a pigeon that was no longer around.
"Bonnie ......" looked at Pawni who had just climbed up from the water with a black line, Pawni stuck out his tongue, "Boss, you and the captain will know how to bully me and Akatomi, two weak women," and after that, he hurriedly hid behind Bonnie, and where she was originally standing, there was a white crystal needle, about a third of which was inserted into the ground.
"Hmph, I knew you were going to do this." Bonnie, who was hiding behind the red pupil, continued to provoke.
"You know," said him, "pack up the prey, and we'll see what is going on with the others." ”
Guy and Grimm are looking for precious ores, and with Guy's abilities and Grimm's knowledge, he should be able to make a lot of money if he's lucky.
They were no longer found on an open flat bottom, and Guy was resting, and Green was crouching on the ground with his back to them, looking for the loot, "No, Guy, there is still no good ore, why don't we change places?" ”
"Yo, Grimm and Guy, haven't you gotten anything yet? Do you want me to help? ”
"No need, boss." Guy said, resting on the sidelines.
I didn't bother anymore, and I continued to walk forward, and I met Cornelia and Tsukushi, who went to collect medicine, and they seemed to have gained a lot. After saying hello to them, they waited for a while at the meeting place, and after about fifteen minutes, they were done. All that's left is to go to the village and sell it, and then hand over the task to Gozqi.
"Excellent! Social practice - to make money to complete. Gozzi took the money the eight of them had earned and announced to them.
"The people in the village are very friendly! Gave us a lot of things. Bonnie said happily, and the others agreed.
"But there are still many people in this world who want to involve these peace-loving people in the flames of war...... After all this time, you have also learned how to deal with these people, and soon I will give you the first task. Be prepared. ”
Everyone's expressions and feelings are different, Guy is very excited, according to his words, he is finally going to become a hero of the empire, Green helped his eyes and sneered, Cornelia was nervous, Tsukushi was eager to try, a pair of hands kept rubbing Prometheus (her courtier), Boni was nervous and excited, Nahasiu couldn't see any expression, red pupils looked at the window, as if thinking about something.
A hand was placed on Chi Pupil's shoulder, Chi Pupil turned his head, it turned out to be no more, a smiling face, if it was him eight years ago, he would not be able to squeeze out this smile, "Don't be nervous." "Boss...... nodded slightly. I'm sure I'll be able to get through. ”
For eight years, I got along well with other people.
Back to business, it's the second day, and only Crimson and Guy haven't come, and they're not discussing today's mission.
The door was pushed open, "Sorry...... I'm late. Wearing a dress and a hairpin pinned to her head, Akatomi said breathlessly, not noticing how strange the other people looked at her.
"It's beautiful." He said with a smile.
"It was given to me by Martha." The red pupil's face flushed slightly. With a footprint on his face, Guy crouched silently in the corner of the room.
In fact, he was because he earned a little money yesterday, and he went to the kiln as soon as he was proud, but the money was gone while playing, and he was hung on a tree for a long time, and finally saw the red pupil passing by, so he put him down, and the two went back to the villa together.
At this time, the red pupil was wearing the skirt given by Martha, walking in front of Guy, because he was in a hurry, so the skirt side was swinging big, and the essence of Guy's pervert was played again, but unfortunately he was discovered by the red pupil and stepped on his face.
………………
"Okay, although this is your first mission, as long as it is a training, with your skills, the decision is fine. Coupled with the fact that you still have the vassals in your hands, it should be very easy. ”
"Father, what is the ......?" Tsukushi asked, puzzled.
"The weapons in the hands of each of you are all vassals. When it comes to courtiers, we have to talk about the emperor first. Soon after the establishment of the empire, the first emperor gathered the top blacksmiths in the country and spent a huge amount of money to make 48 imperial tools, although the usage was somewhat different, but each of them was extremely powerful. Later, successive monarchs of the empire also tried to make imperial tools, but they always did not reach the original level, and the king sealed them all in a fit of rage. The tools in your hands were lent by me from the treasury, so you have a great responsibility! ”
Gozzi's words put a lot of pressure on everyone present.
"By the way, as the best of you, my children, you are not allowed to fail in the first mission, understand!" Gozzi's face sank.
"Yes!"
Gozzi sent everyone a folded note, "The specific content of the mission is on it, no one is allowed to assist, and the task is completed alone." The deadline is tomorrow, bring me the target's head. ”
Everyone will go to their respective rooms.
"How...... How could it be her ......" When the red pupil opened her note, as if she couldn't believe it, "It must be a mistake, it must be ......"
"Knock knock" knock on the door, Red Pupil calmed down his mood, and after opening the door, he found that it was gone, "Boss, is there something wrong?" ”
"It's nothing, just to remind you, you can't wear this dress during the night mission, it may affect ......" "Okay, okay, I know." Before he could finish speaking, Red Hitomi interrupted him, "I'm a little sleepy, let's go rest first." The door was closed with a "bang".
"Uh, okay. Rest well. "It's a bit embarrassing that I haven't eaten a closed door.
When I returned to my room, I didn't keep thinking about a question, what the hell was going on with the red pupils? Is it a mission? It seems that it is necessary to complete the task first, and follow the red pupil tonight to find out.
The mission is simple, an SSS-class dangerous species entrenched not far from the village, the two-headed snake dragon.
This dangerous species is interesting, with a huge body and two snake-length necks and heads, both of which spew a viscous liquid that is extremely corrosive. This is not the most headache, the main thing is that the two-headed snake dragon has two heads, which means that it is more alert and less accessible than other dangerous species!
"Let's go now, then."
Before I got to the village, I bought two bags of marijuana and ran straight to the marked location on the map.
Twilight.
"Whew...... Whew" was no longer panting, and the white robes on his body were tattered and stained with blood, but most of them were two-headed snake dragons. His eyebrows furrowed as he looked at the pile of broken crystals on the ground in the distance.
"It's still not very well controlled."
"Yes, but Huangjing's power is not easy to control, but now it depends on how you deal with it." Bai teased.
Looking up at the sky, "It's not early, we have to go back quickly." ”
By the time he had not yet returned to the base, it was already completely dark, and he knocked on the door of the red pupil. There had been no movement for a long time, and it seemed that she had already gone to prepare for the mission. has not been to the outside of the villa,
"I hope the red pupil is okay......" looked at the bright full moon, and no longer muttered. Then he knelt down on one knee and hit the ground with his right fist, his brow furrowed slightly.
I've probably found the location of the red pupil, but there's another person's breath, and although I'm not sure, it seems to be that person's ......
