On the second floor of the hotel, when the boss brought the mercenaries behind him to the door, he trotted downstairs - at this time he realized how cute the rude and ruthless mercenaries downstairs were!

"Like a poisonous snake, no, no, it's a snow bear, no, no, it's not ......"

Thinking back to his previous feelings, the innkeeper's heart trembled so much that he fell down the stairs with his front feet mixed with his hind feet.

Listening to the figure rolling down the stairs, a palpable contempt appeared on the face of the 'Murderer', and then, he pushed the door open—

In the room, Baron de Fendi's chief guard was already waiting there, looking at the 'random killer' who walked in, the noble chief of the guard, and said with some annoyance: "You are two hours later than agreed!" ”

"So what? And also...... Are you accusing me? ”

'Slaughterer' said nonchalantly, and then, the whites of his eyes, began to stare at the chief of the guard of Baron de Fendi.

"Don't think it's ......"

is also a mercenary, but after becoming the chief of the noble guard, it is obvious that the temper of the chief guard has not become humble, and he is still so irritable.

This time, however, his words had just come out of his mouth when they stopped.

Because the 'random killer' who had been standing in front of him suddenly disappeared, a palm passed through his back, and his backhand was placed on his throat, feeling the cold feeling, the chief guard shivered all over.

"Why?"

'Random Killer' asked in a low voice.

"No, nothing ......"

Sweat appeared and slid down the forehead of the Baron de Fendi, and his voice became dry; And the palm of the 'random killer' slowly descended, giving the captain of the guard a feeling. It was as if a snake was swimming around him. Until the waist behind that bag with gems. I left with the bag.

"If you hadn't brought enough 'deposits', you'd already be a dead man!"

Weighing the weight of the bag, the gem made a loud noise, and the 'Random Killer' said softly.

"This is half of the 'deposit' that Lord Baron gave you, and the rest will be paid when you kill or humiliate that guy!"

Baron de Fendi's chief guard turned around and took a few steps back, after closing enough distance from the 'Random Killers'. That's what he said.

"I'm going to add 30%!"

'Random Killer' said suddenly.

"What?! It's impossible, it's just a knight who has just been baptized as a knight, and two thousand Kimpton is already the limit! ”

Baron de Fendi's chief guard was stunned for a moment, and then, the next moment, he shouted loudly.

"Is a knight who has just been baptized by a knight worth two thousand Kimpton? Two hundred is about the same! Dean. Ken is different, he is the Golden Knight of Jade's future, so he is only worth two thousand Kimptons, and the 'White Rose' is also by his side. So, you need to give me an extra thirty percent. Because, I'm going to have to put a lot more effort into escaping - you don't think I'm killing Dean. Ken will be able to return to D'Er County in the open, right? Emerald can't hold me! ”

The 'Slayer' poured the bag of gems into his hand, and pressed his cheeks as if tasting the colourful sheen, but his words were clear to the ears of the chief of the Baron de Fendi's guard.

"You don't have to do it!"

Baron de Fendi's chief of guard said.

"Since your master has found me, he understands what the consequences are; Or rather...... He himself came for this consequence! ”

Without raising his head, the 'Random Killer' said slowly.

"I can't call the shots, I'll tell the Baron!"

Baron de Fendi's chief guard replied after a moment's hesitation.

"I'll wait for your reply......"

The voice of the 'Random Killer' suddenly became muffled as thick saliva suddenly spilled out of his mouth, covering the gems in layers.

Suddenly, the brilliance of those gems seemed to dim a little.

A strange flush appeared on the face of the 'Random Killer', and the eyes full of whites began to change slightly.

Baron de Fendi's chief of guard, who was watching this scene, inexplicably felt a chill on his back.

He didn't even say goodbye, and just left the room.

was in a hurry, so much so that many people in the lobby saw him leaving.

However, none of these mercenaries paid attention to the chief guard, and Nord glanced at the captain of the 'Scorpion' and the lion's captain, Kested, and then glanced straight at his subordinates.

Then, the entire Nord mercenary group left the 'River Night'.

Then, after frowning, the captain of the Lion Mercenary Regiment, Kested, also chose to leave.

Only Scorpion' Sturf, the Scorpion of the Scorpion Mercenary Regiment, sat there motionless, even though some of his subordinates had become anxious and panicked.

And when the footsteps on the stairs sounded, such anxiety and panic were completely occupied by fear.

"'Scorpion'?"

Deerdrand glanced at the other party in a little surprise, but then he became more and more contemptuous, and he stood there looking at the other party with a flattering face: "Do you want to cooperate again?" ”

"Of course, Lord Deerdland! After all, cooperation is a win-win situation! ”

'Scorpion' said flatteringly.

"What price are you prepared to pay?"

Deirderland asked slowly.

"Enough price code to make you not an identity!"

The scorpion replied.

After that, the two returned to the second floor of the hotel.

Most of the mercenaries of the Scorpion Mercenary Group who stayed on the first floor watched this scene blankly, especially those who had been occupied by fear before.

However, a few of them had a look of understanding.

As the mercenaries waited quietly, the 'Night of the River' seemed to be back to its former tranquility.

Except, of course, the boss who was supposed to be standing behind the bar. At the moment, he was lying in his room. Moaning outside. Yiqiē is so calm and peaceful.

……

It snowed heavily for three days in a row, but people were not as tired as before, on the contrary, with a hint of joy.

Because, in Vauban there is a saying that the heavier the snow falls before the mid-winter festival, the better the luck of the coming year - and most of the four northern counties have this saying.

So. After sweeping away the snow in front of the door and the roof, people are waiting for the Midwinter Festival with a sense of leisure and anticipation.

This is especially true for the civilians of Tyre.

The bowstring on the longbow was removed and put into the sleeve, sprinkled with some sand dust and sawdust to ensure that the bowstring did not lose its elasticity; After the hunting knives were also wrapped in layers and hung high on the roof to prevent them from being touched by the underage children, the hunters and lumberjacks of the Tyr Territory began to prepare.

A sumptuous meal, or a gift made of animal skins and feathers.

All of them are indispensable for the Midwinter Festival of civilians.

Especially those prestigious commoners who were invited by the baron. He even took out a new dress that had not been passed on once in a year, and smoothed out the folds on it. Start trying them on one by one.

Although, according to the tradition of the Tyre, the Midwinter Festival begins in the afternoon of the first day and lasts until midnight on the second day.

At midnight the next day, it was already the new year.

At that time, after wishing each other well, you can rest to your heart's content to relieve the fatigue of the Midwinter Festival carnival.

Therefore, it does not hurt for everyone to take more breaks at this time.

Some people can't, though.

For example: the old Silen family who lived in the north of the town; Because, the son became one of the captains of the Knights, and the old Silen, who was the head of the family, was invited by the baron.

The hunter, with his muscular body, was carefully letting his wife pick up the clothes he had tried on—a silver horn that his son had given him Kimpton for a tailor; And this is one of the most expensive clothes he has worn so far.

"How?"

Old Siren asked his wife with some trepidation.

"Very good, Ceren will definitely be surprised that his father still has such a clean and elegant side! Are you still distressed about that silver horn? ”

Old Silen's wife, a modest townsman of Tyre, whispered to her husband.

"Well, a little; But...... I can't embarrass Siren, he is favored by the group leader, I can't let Siren lose his future because of myself! ”

Old Siren nodded, the pride on his face obvious.

"In the evening I will have a banquet at the Baron's Mansion...... You take care of the kids! ”

Before going out, old Xilun told his wife again, and then, after his wife's repeated assurances, he left the house.

"Old Silen, Old Silen!"

Old Siren turned around and looked at the short man who was approaching—Ike's father, Ike Sr., for the same reason as him, the same child became one of the captains, and was invited by the baron.

"Pretty much money, right?"

Old Siren pointed to the same brand new clothes on the other party's body.

"Doesn't it look like yours?"

Ike Sr., who is also a hunter and has a considerable reputation, rolled his eyes, and then asked in a low voice, "Is it okay for me to do this?" Won't you embarrass Ike, right? ”

Unlike old Siren who also had a wife, old Ike's wife died after giving birth to Ike.

As a result, Ike Sr. couldn't even talk to someone.

"No, it's good enough!"

Old Siren cheered up his friend, and then greeted the two men who came in the distance: "Old Chad, old Mach, here!" ”

Chad and Maher's father, who were also dressed in brand new clothes, walked over quickly.

Then, the previous conversation was repeated over and over again.

Then, after the four fathers confirmed to each other once again that they would not embarrass their son, they walked side by side towards the baron's mansion.
