Usually in the caravan, Xingchen is like a cute little princess, very shy to everyone, full of energy all day long, the caravan is also full of vitality, everyone likes such a cute little girl very much.

If the single members of the caravan were to see Xingchen's current expression, it was estimated that the roof of the shop would be overturned by them, and even the middle-aged man standing behind the counter would have lost his mind.

Ed smiled and shook his head, took out his pocket watch and glanced at the time, and found that it had taken a long time inadvertently, and he couldn't help but have a headache thinking that there was still a lot of work to deal with next.

Walked up to the crazy star and tapped her lightly on the forehead, "Okay, don't make a fuss, I've bought everything that should be bought, we should go." ”

Dan was stunned for a moment, took out his pocket watch to confirm the time, and nodded, "It's not early, you almost forgot it, it's time to go and meet Wade." ”

After saying that, the two of them picked up the large and small armor and walked outside, and when they were about to go outside, they found that Xingchen was still standing stupidly in place, and Ed called her, "Xingchen, don't stand there stupidly, let's go." ”

At this time, Xingchen's face was still flushed, and he lowered his head to look at the tips of his shoes, and when he heard Ed calling himself, he nodded lightly and staggered to follow.

Out of the blacksmith shop, the two girls stopped and stopped, bought a lot of things in other shops, and finally headed in the direction of the caravan camp with various snacks and daily necessities with a satisfied face.

Just as they were about to leave the village, Ed suddenly stopped, his eyes falling on a building that was larger than the other buildings in the village next to the main road.

This building is the destination of Detachment 32 led by Ed, the tavern of Pokei Village, and the hunters' meeting place of Pokei Village.

According to the plan, Wade had arrived at Pokei Village three days earlier than them and completed the delivery, but if the caravan wanted to complete the commission, the person in charge had to sign there, which meant that it had to be signed by Ed himself.

Because Wade is a nervous personality and often recklessly acts, Ed is really uneasy, and he can't help but want to confirm the delivery situation.

"What's wrong?" Xingchen asked curiously when he saw him stop.

Dan followed his gaze, and then said with a smile, "Eh, you can rest assured, I emphasized many times before Wade set off, you must deliver the goods first and then set up camp, there will be no problem." ”

"Alas...... Let's go. Ed shook his head, glanced at the tavern, and continued on his way.

East Dolma.

In the Grand Hall, a magnificent building at the top of East Dolma, the largest city in the Old World, an elderly man in a golden robe was sitting on his seat and yelling angrily, "What did you say? You repeat! ”

The old dragon man Germain, the deacon of the Great Old Hall who had sent out the task of collecting and entrusting Jiangbo Village, was standing there respectfully at this time, his equipment was covered with cracks and bloodstains, and his right arm was cut off by the roots, leaving only half of the blood-stained sleeve hanging there, the old dragon man sighed lightly, "My lord, the three squads we sent out have all been wiped out......

"It can't be!" The old man in the seat had an uneven breath and squeezed the armrests with his hands and roared angrily, "The entire three teams are almost all composed of high-ranking hunters, even if they can't repel the ancient dragon, how can they not even escape?" What the hell is going on! ”

The old dragon man Germain and the golden-robed old man looked at each other solemnly, and carefully explained what had happened, "We found a secret realm on a mountain peak in the primeval forest, and found many fragments of dragon sealing crystals scattered on the ground and a mining site that was not recorded on the map, and we also found signs of mining on that mining site, and the things on it should have been dug up by that high-ranking hunter, and the traces were very clean. However, before we could further investigate the secret realm, Xia Long suddenly appeared and attacked us, when the team had no time to react, resulting in heavy casualties, we retreated to the bottom of the mountain to join the other two teams, but I didn't expect Xia Long to chase all the way down, and in the end, only the old man and the other two survived. ”

Hearing his words, the golden-robed old man took a deep breath, the anger on his face gradually disappeared, and he sighed, "I didn't expect it...... I tried my best and failed. ”

A hint of coldness suddenly flashed in the yellowed eyes of the old dragon man Germain, and he said in a deep voice, "No, my lord, the plan has not failed!" If the old man guessed correctly, the thing is now on the hunter, and as long as we find him and retrieve it, the mission can continue! ”

As soon as the old dragon man Germain's words fell, a chill spread in the Great Old Hall, and a piercing voice like ice came out from the dark corner, "Since that's the case, leave it to me......"

The two old men looked in the direction where the voice came from, and the old dragon man Jermain snorted coldly with some dissatisfaction, "Leave it to you?" Wait until your men learn to control their hands. We might be able to get some useful information out of that high-ranking hunter, and when the time comes, you will kill someone without saying a word, and the old man will not want to deal with the aftermath for you. ”

"Huh...... I only know that you personally led all the elites of the Great Elder Hall to dispatch and caused a complete annihilation. Mr. Germain, shall we be with each other? ”

"You!"

The golden-robed old man waved his hand to stop the quarrel between the two, slowly stood up, and whispered to the person hiding in the shadows, "Since you are here, then this matter will be handled by you...... But you have to remember to live ......"

"No problem, you can rest assured." After saying these words, the chill in the Great Elder Hall dissipated.

Seeing the person in the shadows leaving, the old dragon man Jermaine couldn't help frowning, and just as he was about to say something, the golden-robed old man interrupted him, "Okay Jermaine...... Now that we are short on manpower, we will leave it to him, now is not the time for distraction. That place still needs you to visit, you ...... You should know how heavy it is, right? ”

Hearing what the golden-robed old man said, the old dragon man Germain's face gradually softened, "Understood, the old man will set off." After a respectful salute, he turned and left.

On the outskirts of the village of Pokey, caravan camp.

When the trio arrived, Ed looked around the camp, which was now empty, with no caravan members in sight, no iconic iron caravans, and only Wade sitting alone around the campfire, eating and drinking.

The camp was silent, save for the crackling of burning wood in the campfire and the sound of Wade chewing food.

Ed frowned, grabbed him from behind, and slapped him the shoulder.

"Hmm......" The sudden attack made Wade not react for a while, he almost choked on the food, let out a cry of pain and jumped up, threw down the barbecue and wine glass in his hand for the first time, turned around vigilantly, and when he saw Ed standing at that time with a serious face, he immediately changed back to his previous lazy appearance, rubbed his shoulders, and said with some complaints, "What are you doing!" Give it to me as soon as you come back, it hurts, okay? ”

"Eat, sleep, sleep, eat, have you done what you did?"

Wade picked up the wine glass on the floor, picked up a skewer of roast meat from the barbecue rack next to the campfire, and then sat down slowly, "Wocle has already taken the others back to Mejepoltan first, and the goods have been handed over, just waiting for you to go to the old woman to sign." ”

Ed looked at the campfire in front of him and was silent for a moment, "What about the wounded?" ”

Wade took a sip of wine, "I took some medicine from the old woman, and when they set off, there were only two left who couldn't get out of bed, and everyone else was almost fine."

Ed said in a low voice, "You should go back with you." ”

Wade held the hand of the wine glass for a pause, and then said nonchalantly, "They are walking on the main road, what can they do?" ”

Hearing what he said, Ed thought about it carefully, sighed, found a wine glass in the box, filled himself with beer, and sat cross-legged by the campfire, looking up at the starry sky.

The rush for several days on a run was a bit exhausting for everyone. Once at the camp, Dan went out with the bucket to fetch water from the creek, while Xingchen tinkered with her new bug stick and armor in the tent, making all sorts of strange noises.

Wade looked in the direction of the voice and asked with some confusion, "Did you go to make a big purchase?" ”

Ed nodded, "Dan clamored me to buy armor, so I bought a set for Xingchen by the way, and I plan to take her to the assembly house tomorrow to register." ”
