Chapter Seventy-Four: Hunters? Prey medium

The end result of the bidding was that the diminutive merchant was superior, and looking at the victory of his old rival, the fat merchant had a look of reluctance and helplessness on his face - obviously, the fat merchant did not expect that his old rival had already united with the other merchants and dealt him a fatal blow when the last bid was made.

Unwilling to be ridiculed as a victor by his old rival any longer, the large merchant returned to the side hall in a rage without even attending the luncheon that had been held in the hall in the morning; Everyone present knew this, and no one went to dissuade them; The short businessman, who was a competitor, said slowly with the attitude of a winner: "Dieting is good for his body!" ”

And such words immediately caused laughter from several allies around him.

"They're really boring!"

Little Doug, who was sitting beside Ye Qi, was obviously very dissatisfied with the face of the dwarf merchant, and commented in a low voice—after the luncheon began, the whole hall was divided into several obvious waves; Everyone sat in their own place and did not interfere with anyone else; And in Ye Qi's party, although there is an existence that is not a demon hunter, he still sits on the side of the demon hunter.

In fact, even with the addition of Tony, an enthusiastic person, the number of witchers in the hall is still the smallest, except for Jacob, who is the representative of the witchers, and only Ye Qi and his party are among them—for today's luncheon, most of the witchers are not interested, compared to such a luncheon. They prefer to look for some food casually. to complete your own tasks.

They were whispering to Jacob about their discoveries. Ye Qi, who was planning the next step, obviously heard the young man next to him muttering to himself, and couldn't help but signal to Jacob to pause, then turned to look at the young man beside him, and asked with a smile: "Little Doug, are you sympathizing with that loser?" ”

"Losers deserve dignity too, shouldn't they?"

After hearing Ye Qi's question, the young man thought for a while and said.

"The dignity of the loser. It was given by the victors, and it has long since ceased to belong to them! ”

Looking at the still kind quality of the young man in front of him, Ye Qi couldn't help but chuckle - although this quality was very good, he couldn't make it the reason for the young man's death; Therefore, Ye Qi restrained his smile, looked at the young man in front of him very seriously, and asked, "After you become a witcher, you will naturally enter the Dark World Realm; Unlike the rest of Lorante, in the Dark World, the loser often thinks of death. Do you think dignity is big for a dead person? Or do you feel like you deserve to die with dignity? Instead of trying to win? ”

"Of course. Working hard to win doesn't mean you're going to do whatever it takes! You have to remember that the witchers are still human, and the unscrupulous way does not exist in the hearts of the witchers, because the witchers exist to stop the unscrupulous creatures of darkness, not to become them! ”

Ye Qi looked at the young man in front of him and the friend who was also attracted by his words, he pointed to the food in front of him, and said, "And how to distinguish between hard work and unscrupulous victory, when you return to Dude, President Speido will teach you to distinguish the difference; And, train you to master everything you need to master faster! However, there is one thing that I can teach you, and that is that you have strength when you are full, and plenty of rest is to go further! ”

"So, young people, now take heed to your lunches, and eat them all; Then, go back to the side hall and have a good rest, the lunch break will be of untold benefit to you! ”

"Yes, Lord Finger!"

Little Doug and Xsol obviously wanted to hear Yetch continue, but seeing Jacob sitting on the sidelines, the two young men cleverly buried their heads and began to attack with their lunch in mind; When the weak witcher on the side saw such a scene, he immediately picked up his plate, went to the food concentration in the middle of the hall, and brought food with a fairly balanced nutritional mix for the two of them; And he himself prepared for the life-saving benefactor next to him first-although the wound in front of his chest and abdomen had been properly treated, for Tony, the 'sitting position' of leaning back about 30 degrees undoubtedly made it difficult for him to eat the food in front of him, as long as he didn't want to pile his neck and chest with food scraps.

"Herman, Herman, I can do it myself! Drop it down and let me do it myself, is that okay? I...... Ahhhh......h

Under the gaze of so many people in the hall, being fed, especially a man, even Tony, who was born as a dark mercenary, was extremely unsettled, and he emphasized again and again; However, the emphasis turned into a muffled whimper after Herman shoved a smaller, sliced steak into his mouth.

"This is the herb sauce steak that I asked Lord Regus to prepare for you, it is good for your wounds!"

With this explanation, the weak witcher brought another steak to Tony's mouth, but this time, Tony closed his lips tightly, just showing his protest with his eyes.

"Little Doug, Xsol, I need your help; Pinch his nose and hold it with both hands, remembering not to touch his wounds......"

"Wait, I'...... Ahhhh......h

Seeing the two young men eager to try under the command of the weak witcher, Tony immediately stopped him; And the moment he opened his mouth, a steak was smoothly stuffed into his mouth.

"If you want to resist, I don't mind; I've got a helper here, now it's up to you? ”

The weak witcher asked with a gesture as he placed the plate in front of Tony.

"I, I ......"

In the end, Tony made the wisest choice of all, and the weak witcher fed him - which would cause ridicule from others, but it was better than being held down by two young men and then fed. Lighter, right?

Tony, a dark mercenary. So comforting to myself.

……

"Herman is very good at taking care of people!"

Jacob sat on the couch with a cup of tea. looked at the scene in front of him, and said with a smile - although Tony saved Herman's life, but at the special moment when everyone was nervous about yesterday's special situation, Jacob certainly would not fail to investigate Tony's identity; And the results of the survey, although it makes people frown, but generally satisfied.

After investigation. Tony definitely didn't approach Herman with any special purpose, and the rescue that happened before was not acting, which is gratifying; And incidentally, there is a slight worry about Tony's identity - greedy for money, the dark mercenary who feeds on Kimpton, this is the title given by the other party in the dark mercenary world by the dark mercenaries who are extremely greedy themselves, and such a title is enough to show what kind of person the other party is.

Even, Jacob had to be suspicious. The reason why the other party saved Herman was also because Herman had precious magic materials on him - using them as life money. It is undoubtedly taken for granted in the eyes of the other party.

However, things have developed so far, and through Jacob's observations, it is clear that the other party is slightly different from the rumor; The greed for money is undoubtedly correct, this is completely provable, and even Jacob can be sure that if he throws a Kimpton at the opponent's feet, even if the opponent's body is seriously injured now, he will definitely pounce on the Kimpton, hold it down with his body, and swear his sovereignty over the Kimpton.

However, this cannot be concealed, the other party is a very principled person in essence, or a trace of kindness; Jacob, who got this result, couldn't help but laugh at first, and even anyone would laugh; Is there still such 'kindness' among the dark mercenaries?

But this self-deprecating smile soon disappeared in the observation of the other party; Because, the other party is such a person; It's a fact.

"There are so-called family witchers among the witchers! So what's not to do with an existence like Tony in the dark mercenaries? After putting the empty coffee cup on the table, Ye Qi sat aside and asked rhetorically - the exchange of information with Jacob was enough for Ye Qi to know enough, and such enough information would naturally enable him to make an accurate judgment.

"Alright! Tony is a nice young man! ”

With this as a summary, Jacob poured a black liquid into Ye Qi's empty coffee cup; In this regard, Ye Qi frowned slightly, and then, casually, picked it up - in Finger's information, the other party's favorite, aside from alcoholic drinks, is coffee; And for Ye Qi, who likes milk tea, this is a challenge; Because, such a drink always reminds him of the traditional Chinese medicine soup in his hometown.

"Of course, we also have nice young people!"

Jacob said as he gestured to Yedge to ask if there was anything else to discover.

"I've done my best to stay here, and I can't wait to return to Dude!"

Ye Qi replied to Jacob in both words, and at the same time, he once again marked the people he was focusing on with gestures.

"Don't worry, it won't delay you too much!" With an undetectable gaze, remembering the person that Ye Qi had marked in his heart, Jacob began to make excuses for his departure: "And, are you sure you don't need an apostolic trench coat?" As a friend, I can remind you that although it is a little more expensive, it has good defense and considerable comfort! ”

"Two if you can! Herman needs one too! ”

Ye Qi, who understood Jacob's intentions, immediately nodded and said.

"Before dinner, you'll have your own apostolic trench coat!"

Jacob, who said this, stood up, said hello to a few people around him, and walked out of the side hall.

……

The luncheon, forty minutes later, came to an end—most of the guests got up to say goodbye to Regus, the head of the Norsd family at this time; Some of them chose to return to the side hall to rest, while others chose to enter the ordinary wizard secret city to hang out as an after-dinner exercise.

Of course, it would be nice if there was anything unexpected to be found during such an after-dinner exercise.

In the crowd of loitering, Ye Qi and his party were not included; After saying goodbye to Regus, they headed straight back into the side hall—in fact. After the luncheon. Someone came to invite this man who had nothing to offer. The witchers who leapt into the wealthy class in an instant, among them belonged to the diminutive merchant who was the most eager; After all, in the previous mortgage, the diminutive businessman had paid a considerable price, and if possible, he hoped to communicate with Ye Qi in private, so that Ye Qi would not cash out the real estate for the time being, until he had raised enough funds to redeem it. And the waiting period can be counted towards interest.

Regarding this short businessman's proposal, Ye Qi did not immediately agree, nor did he explicitly refuse, but just smiled and shirked and said that he would consider it - if these things were really his, Ye Qi would naturally agree to the other party very happily and wait for the other party's redemption; However, the Mind Flayer's Brain Marrow was provided by Jacob on behalf of the Witcher's headquarters, so whatever the final outcome would be, the items that were won by the Mind Flayer's Brain Marrow at the moment. It was already completely in the name of the Demon Hunter Headquarters, and Ye Qi naturally couldn't use it.

looked at Ye Qi without any explicit expression. The diminutive merchant let out a sigh of relief and left with a smile on his face—as long as it wasn't a rejection, it didn't mean a failure for him; Even if you refuse, there is a chance; It's just a little more expensive.

As Ye Qi and most of the people entered the side hall to rest, someone who had been waiting for a long time couldn't wait, and he mixed with the crowd of wanderers, looking for a target alone - even at noon, the flow of people in the Wizard Secret City did not decrease at all, and for the people of the Dark World Realm, it was obviously not difficult to bring their own dry food, but common sense; On the premise of having the rest area provided by the Nosd family, many people devoured all the dry food and then devoted themselves to the process of searching for the items they had been thinking about for a long time.

And the noisy and dense crowd has undoubtedly become a natural barrier at this time, both for this person with bad intentions and for those who are tracking him—however, it is clear that the former is more sure than the latter, and he looks at the guards around him who are obviously several times more numerous, his face does not change, but he smiles coldly in his heart.

Since he participated in this 'game', then his 'eye' is naturally completely prepared, not to mention, he is only the first link, and it is also the safest link - he naturally does not mind participating if he can easily get high profits and just pay a little danger.

As for failure and exposure?

This is not what he has to worry about, in addition to the trust in the collaborator, it is more about the confidence in his own measures and the way out - if it weren't for this measure and the back road, he wouldn't have been involved, even if there is a high benefit, but it is too risky!

It's not as simple as it is now, getting what you want-

"Sir, have you just finished participating in the inner market?"

In the Wizard Secret City, it belongs to the area unique to the dark mercenary; A stall owner asked the man standing in front of him.

"Yes, you?"

"Can you tell me about it? You have to know that our identity can't participate in such a level of bidding! However, I was curious about it! The stall owner showed a humble smile, and then immediately pointed to the things on the stall in front of him: "Of course, I won't let you say it in vain, you can choose one thing at will, even the most expensive one!" ”

Although the stall owner said so, the most expensive item in his stall was only the existence of the price tag of three hundred Kimptons; However, it was evident that the gentleman, who had participated in the inner market, did not care about any of this, and after picking up the most expensive item, he began his own story; And the people around him also gathered around in this kind of narration.

Looking at the gathered crowd, the gentleman, who had just participated in the inner market, was obviously very interested, not only telling the whole process, but also telling some important things that happened in detail; When people heard the holy artifact and heard the true purpose of the Mind Flayer, they let out a high-pitched exclamation, which couldn't help but make the face of the gentleman who came out of the inner city filled with inexplicable pride and joy - put the stone-like sculpture in his hand, and felt the weight of it, and the gentleman knew how worthwhile his trip was.

Five, or six, high-standard magic crystals?

With this speculation in mind, this gentleman began to focus on the characters who excelled in the inner market—the middle-aged man with a stereotypical face who finally obtained the holy weapon, and the opponent of the other party, the demon hunter from the family; There is also a battle between two large, skinny businessmen for the brains of the Mind Flayer.

Of course, one of them is even more indispensable because of the brains of the Mind Snatcher, and the lucky one who stepped into the sky and stepped into the circle of the rich - "Finger", another identity of Ye Qi.

Almost immediately, everyone present expressed their envy and jealousy for this lucky man who had reached the sky in one step; Of course, according to people's expressions now, there is no doubt that the latter is the majority; Therefore, almost without waiting for the stall owner to ask, some onlookers began to ask about the appearance and dress of the lucky man.

And this gentleman also answered one by one.
