Chapter 5: Seriously

Hunched over, the stone patted Zheng Qiankun's shoulder.

"Got it...... Why I don't like stealing dead people's things. Stone said.

"Ahh

After resting for a while, feeling that the stench had lessened a little, Zheng Qiankun and Shi covered their noses and came to the wooden coffin.

Golden Helmet, Golden Armor, Golden Shield, Golden Sword......

The golden suit showing the 'temperament' of the royal knight and nobility appeared in front of the two beggars who had nothing.

The moonlight is not very bright, it can be said to be faint, but, even with such a faint moonlight, the golden suit still reflects a charming golden light.

Shocked!

Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, the two beggars, were shocked by the golden suits.

Oh gold!

Zheng Qiankun and Shi really didn't think that one day, there would be such a large pile of gold in front of them.

"Huang ...... Gold...... It's gold, right?!" Stone couldn't believe it.

"Ahh

You can see it!

In the hearts of the two beggars, Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, they regarded the golden battle suit that the royal rider was proud of as a very valuable gold.

If any royal rider knew that their golden suit had been mistaken for vulgar gold by two ignorant little beggars, I wonder if the golden knight would have the urge to vomit blood.

For the proud royal knight, the golden suit is to confirm his loyalty and the meaning of existence.

The gold suit is a ...... of faith Faith that must not be insulted.

Obviously, the two little beggars, Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, completely insulted the royal knight's golden suit.

After a long time, when the stone was convinced that he was not dreaming, he mustered up his courage and took up the beautiful golden sword.

The golden sword was so heavy that even if the stone held the sword in both hands, he could not hold the slightest bit.

In the end, it was only with the help of Zheng Qiankun that Shi successfully picked up the golden sword.

It's just that the stone hasn't had time to rejoice...... Along with the golden sword, he was startled by the arm he picked up with him.

It was the arm of the royal knight Bai Sensen.

Holding his sword tightly even after death - is this the belief of the royal knights?!

At this moment, the deeds of knighthood, which have been recited by countless bards for thousands of years, were felt for the first time by the two beggar demon hunters.

Zheng Qiankun...... Do you want to steal it?"

Stone is now unsure whether stealing a royal knight's equipment is a blasphemy at all.

Zheng Qiankun didn't know what to do, after all, Zheng Qiankun admired the heroic deeds in the mouth of the bard, especially the dignity of knights.

To this day, Zheng Qiankun still clearly remembers the story of a royal knight against the orc army in the mouth of a bard.

It was in the Oia Canyon on the border of the Soyar Empire, and the Royal Knights of one hundred and twenty people were facing an army of 100,000 orcs with natural divine power.

Fearless!

Knowing the disparity in strength, the one hundred and twenty royal knights still danced the golden sword in their hands......

Blood stained the Oia Gorge red, and in the end, the Kasa tribe, who had lost thousands of orc warriors, slaughtered the royal knights, who were only one hundred and twenty men.

However, without exception, under the blood-stained golden armor of the royal knights, they still held their golden swords tightly after death, and they never let go until they died.

This is such a story, when Zheng Qiankun was a child, he had an indescribable awe of the royal knights.

Now, Zheng Qiankun is stealing the royal knight that he fears deeply.

However, what paradoxically makes Zheng Qiankun is that he really needs these equipment.

Kneeling down, Zheng Qiankun kowtowed to the royal knight three times.

"When I complete my first mercenary commission, I will definitely return the golden suit to you...... I swear to the great god of the moon!"

After speaking, Zheng Qiankun kowtowed three more times.

Zheng Qiankun stood up, and he picked up the royal knight's golden shield...... The expression is very serious.

Shi is still one of the few people who has seen Zheng Qiankun with such a serious expression.

Back in the dilapidated church, Zheng Qiankun and Shi dug a pit to bury the golden suits.

The beggar had a noble and luxurious golden suit overnight, which was not something to show off, not to mention that Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, who had no martial arts skills at all, had no ability to protect the golden suit at all.

Even a demon hunter who knows a little bit of martial arts will not have a hard time snatching the golden suit from their hands.

To add insult to injury, the Golden Suit is exclusive to the Royal Knights...... If anyone finds two beggars swaggering in the mercenary market wearing golden suits, the soldiers of the mercenary market will definitely take them away.

If they are lucky, the two beggars, Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, only need to cut off one hand and one leg, of course, more often than not, they can only be in different places.

The gold suit symbolizes the majesty of the royal family...... Two little beggars simply do not deserve such an honor.

Although Zheng Qiankun and Shi Shi are ignorant little beggars, they are well aware of the matter of beheading.

Burying the Golden Suit is the best way for a beggar to be able to 'collect' it.

"We can go and get the mission tomorrow!I don't know, our first mission will be to deal with some powerful magical beast......" Stone was a little expectant.

"Powerful Demonic Beast?!" Zheng Qiankun poured cold water on the stone, "You want to find death! How could we possibly deal with Demonic Beast?!"

"Don't be so unconfident in yourself, okay...... Gold Suit...... We have such advanced equipment now!"

"Equipment is secondary! If that's what you say, why are those strongmen like magicians and berserkers still afraid of Warcraft...... Warcraft is not so easy to deal with, okay!"

"Cut! Those strongmen look down on Warcraft! People are so strong, they don't have time to play with Warcraft!"

As soon as Shi Shi finished saying this, Zheng Qiankun hit him on the head with a fist.

"Don't fucking underestimate the enemy, we don't have such qualifications!" Zheng Qiankun became serious again.

“...... I'm just talking, why are you so serious?" "If you want to live, some things have to be serious, I don't want to die at the hands of Warcraft on the first mission!"

“...... Crow's beak!"

※※※

Ate a little sweet potato in the morning......

Zheng Qiankun and Shi came to the mercenary market.

There were still as many people as usual, and they came and went with relatively well-armed demon hunters.

Empty-handed, dressed in shabby linen clothes, when the two beggars, Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, showed their demon hunting certificates, the imperial soldiers who handled the primary tasks were a little incredulous.

In the window of this beginner quest, a wooden sign reads:

Grade E

Requirements: Get rid of the wolves.

Features: Silver hair, red tail, and a clear horn on the forehead.

Demand: Unlimited.

Price: 500 copper coins each.

Mission validity: 30 days.

"You ...... Demon Hunter?"

If it weren't for the firm eyes of the two beggars, Zheng Qiankun and Shishi, this soldier would definitely show his sword and cut down these two beggars who dared to fool him.

"All right!" said the soldier, "since you have a demon hunting certificate, there is no reason why we should not let you die...... Shiya Mountain, a wolf, five hundred copper coins. ”

After speaking, the soldier took out two contracts and asked Zheng Qiankun and the stone to press their handprints.

After they pressed their handprints, the soldier gave Zheng Qiankun and Shi a strange smile.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you!" said the soldier, "though the wolves are not powerful beasts, they are not something you two stinking beggars can kill...... I advise you to find a few more junior demon hunters to go up the mountain with you. ”

The soldiers were not scaring Zheng Qiankun and the stones, in fact, the wolf was indeed not a beast that the two of them could deal with in sackcloth.

The wolf is huge, and it also has two canine teeth that are twenty centimeters long...... When they encountered the wolf, even the heavily armed Imperial soldiers had no choice but to escape...... That's not to say that the Imperial soldiers can't deal with the wolves - they don't want to face a large pack of nimble wolves.

Normally, Imperial soldiers would not attack easily when they encountered a beast or a demonic beast, and the Soyal Empire did not allow it.

The cost of training a warlike Imperial soldier is still quite high.

The soldiers died in the war, and the Soar Empire had nothing to say...... War! People are always dead.

But let a soldier who has been trained for three years die at the hands of a beast or a monster, and the empire will not give up.

It is precisely because of this that the profession of demon hunter has quietly risen under the planning of the Soar Empire.

Speaking of which, the Witcher really has no past compared to the time-honored magicians, berserkers, Templars, and royal knights...... Demon hunters have only been around for over a hundred years.

Of course, the commission paid by the Soyal Empire to a demon hunter is only a fraction of what it takes to train a soldier.

Thanks to the kindness of the soldiers, Shi and Zheng Qiankun took their respective contracts...... In the contemptuous eyes of the people, they left the mercenary market.
