Chapter 034: Change
……
Boom!
The door was pushed open and the bell that hung on it jingled, plunging the bustling tavern into silence, which quickly became noisy again when it became clear that it was only a young man dressed as a swordsman. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The person who came was Su Shu, who was hit hard, and he naturally came to the tavern not to borrow wine to kill his sorrows, but to make money, after all, he didn't even have a penny on him.
After leaving Phyllis's house, Su Shu kept thinking about how he could get ahead along the way.
First of all, money is indispensable.
But I don't have any ability to make money......
Then you have to rely on the cute spell!
That's right, there are still three times left in the mantra, and you can only use the spell to make yourself financially and self-reliant first.
"Boss!" Su Shu barely squeezed through the crowd around him, and slapped one hand on the counter, "I'm a mercenary!" I'm going to take the job! ”
Seeing Su Shu's thin and weak appearance, the tavern owner didn't bother to take another look, and said disapprehantly: "Don't joke with me, how can there be a mercenary like you?" ”
Su Shu secretly clenched his fists and said in a deep voice: "It doesn't matter if you look down on me, in short, to open a tavern, you must have the rules of a tavern, and tell the mercenaries what bounty tasks need to be undertaken, which is your basic obligation." ”
"Hmph, don't blame me for finding your own death." Seeing that Su Shu was so ignorant, the tavern owner snorted coldly, and deliberately took out some highly dangerous bounty orders, "Ten gold for hunting the two-headed snake, twenty gold for the scorpion-tailed wolf, and seventy gold for the one-eyed wulong!" Griffin Hundred! Little ghost, I think any monster can tear you to shreds at will! Hahaha! ”
The tavernkeeper's shrill laughter was echoed by the others.
However, to everyone's surprise, Su Shu asked unusually calmly, "Is there a higher reward than this?" ”
“…… Higher? The tavern owner was stunned for a moment, and then sneered loudly: "Do you still want to kill Moby Dick?" The griffin was already the most dangerous magical beast around the royal capital, and even the bravest mercenary group in the royal capital was almost wiped out...... You're not enough to stuff the griffin's teeth. ”
"I took it, Griffon's bounty." Su Shu did not hesitate to snatch the griffin's bounty.
At this point, the entire tavern fell silent.
Su Shu unhurriedly put the bounty order into his arms, looked around at the people around him, and said calmly: "Those who look down on me, deceive me, and take advantage of me...... Keep an eye on it, and I'll bring back the griffon's head to vindicate my name. ”
There is no momentum at all, but it makes people feel the strong confidence in him.
This is so absurd that after Su Shu left, many people have not come back to their senses.
……
According to the information provided on the bounty order, the last place where the griffon was seen was in a mountain forest to the south.
Su Shu spent nearly a day and a half traveling, and in the early morning of the third day of coming to this other world, he arrived near his destination.
At this time he was extremely tired, and his stomach began to ache with hunger, he had not eaten for three whole days, and he was shaking no matter what he saw, and he knew that he was dazzled and hungry.
But compared to the pain of being cut into a stick by the intestinal hunter in the first place, this pain is nothing at all!
Looking at the huge mountain peak in front of him, Su Shu couldn't help but smile, as long as he climbed this mountain, he activated the Meng spell and killed the griffin! Then all the humiliation will be washed away in that instant! Reputation! Money! You'll get it all!
Thinking about it, Su Shu ignored the pain on his feet and accelerated his pace and ran towards the peak.
After walking for nearly an hour on the mountain road, Su Shu stopped, because there was no road ahead, only a cliff.
The griffon's nest is right on top of the highest peak.
Su Shu looked up at the top of the mountain, the clouds and mist were shrouded above, and the mountain wind was becoming more and more bitter, looking out of reach.
He has been supported until now, how can he be afraid of a cliff, not to mention that the rock here has obviously been climbed, and there are deep or shallow gaps everywhere, he immediately pulled out the iron sword on his waist and pierced the gap in the rock, intending to use the iron sword to slowly climb up.
Although he didn't know if it would work, Su Shu still didn't hesitate to move forward, as if he was masochistic, completely ignoring the pain that was so severe that he was about to tear, and no matter how much his hands trembled, he still didn't hesitate.
It was neither bravery nor strength that was encouraging him, but sheer pride.
He is very aware of his weaknesses, and once he loses that little bit of poor self-esteem, then he is really useless!
Almost unconsciously, Su Shu had climbed more than half of the way, and was about to complete a feat that he had never dared to imagine before.
And at this moment, if you accidentally fall, you will inevitably fall to pieces!
He never dared to take his eyes off the top and continued to climb slowly upwards.
In this way, one step at a time, we must not panic......
After more than ten minutes, he was almost exhausted, and finally saw the end of the rock!
Su Shu struggled to support his body, climbed to the top of the mountain peak at once, and lay on the stinking land, panting extremely heavily.
There is no doubt that the stench, which is difficult to cover even the nose, is caused by the griffon.
Su Shu barely raised his head, only to see a simple bird nest built in the middle of the mountaintop, which was the source of the stench, but there was no trace of a griffin.
He was not in a hurry, for the bounty was clearly written that the griffons would leave the nest every morning to hunt and would not return until noon.
After recovering his strength, Su Shu got up from the ground and cautiously walked to the griffin's lair, intending to investigate the situation first.
shiny white bones......
The nest was littered with skeletons of various sizes, mostly horse bones, followed by cow bones, and then human bones.
It can be seen that the griffin's habits are the same as stated in the bounty order, they like to eat horses the most, and will only attack humans when there is no food to find.
WhewW......
Just as he was about to take a closer look at the nest, there was a sudden and eerie sound of flapping wings from above.
Su Shu immediately looked up, and in the high sky where the sun was dazzling, a behemoth was swooping towards the top of the mountain.
Here it comes!
Griffins no doubt!
Normally, the griffin does not return to the nest early, so it must have discovered its own invasion and flew back in a hurry, after all, the griffin has strong eyesight, even in the air, it can clearly see the ground, let alone the conspicuous mountaintop.
Woo woo woo woo !
The griffon's chirping sounded rather eerie, not like the sounds of a large beast, but that didn't diminish its might in any way, but made it even more mysterious.
Come on.
Become a victim of my fame and fortune in exchange.
Looking at the griffin that was about to pounce, Su Shu's eyes were full of malice, and what he was thinking about was not his own beliefs, but the other extreme.
The fallen self is no longer worthy of the power of faith......
So!
Su Shu closed his eyes, and a tall golden back floated in his mind.
"Just make me happy once......"
Airplanes!
Su Shu's left hand instantly bloomed with an extremely strange blood light.
At the same time, more than a dozen golden vortices appeared around him one after another, like raging fire, and immediately after, weapons shining with strange brilliance emerged from the golden vortex.
Not only are these weapons come in a variety of styles, but they are all brilliantly decorated, and the blades also exude a torrent-like energy, which is obviously not ordinary.
In an instant, the keen griffon felt an unprecedented threat from Su Shu's side, forcing it to flapp its wings and turn to the other end, wanting to escape.
"Kill it."
Su Shu suddenly opened his eyes, and his left hand was already pointing at the griffin in the air.
In the next second, countless weapons whizzed past Su Shu, as if tearing through the air, and bombarded indiscriminately towards the griffin above.
Seeing the group of weapons dragging on to it, the griffin hurriedly spread its wings and flapped, its huge wings vigorously stirring the surrounding mountain wind, quickly forming a substantial wall of wind, trying to block the attack of the weapon group.
Knock -
The first round of weapon attacks smashed the wall of wind apart.
Burst! Burst! Burst!
A second wave of weapons followed unhindered through the griffon's massive body, blood spilling down like a spring.
"Uh......h Wow......"
With the mournful cry of the griffin, it flapped its wings wildly, but it still could not avoid falling, and finally fell straight down from mid-air, shaking the whole ground and spreading dust and smoke in all directions as if it could cover half the sky.
Under this powerful bombardment, the griffin lying on the ground looked half-dead, its whole body convulsed, and its limbs continued to struggle upward, but no matter how it struggled, it could no longer soar into the sky, let alone change the outcome of imminent death.
“…… Excuse me, your head ...... I want it! Su Shu gasped violently and raised his iron sword high, intending to deliver a fatal blow to it.
And just when he was most excited, a sound of armor fluttering sounded from all around.
Su Shu turned his head vigilantly to see a group of heavily armored men climbing to the top of the mountain, and soon surrounded himself and the dying griffin.
The situation is clear at a glance, these people must want to reap the benefits and rob the fruits of their labor.
Not surprisingly, the leading scar man glanced at the griffin with palpitations, then straightened his waist and smiled at Su Shu: "On behalf of the Eminem Mercenary Group, I would like to thank you for eliminating harm for the people!" However, fighting the griffon with the highest bounty must have taken a lot of your strength, right? ”
Su Shu looked at the scar man coldly, and said word by word: "So, you want to take the opportunity to kill me and receive the corpse of the griffin, right?" ”
"Don't say it so bluntly...... Scar Man scratched his cheek and continued to laugh, "We do want to take the griffin's corpse, so can we trouble you to kill yourself?" So as not to hurt everyone's peace, I promise that your body will be buried properly. ”
"Die......" Su Shu said in disgust.
"Huh?" The mountain wind was too strong, and the scar man didn't hear it clearly.
"- Die! Die! Die! ”
Su Shu's eyes were full of hideousness, he roared sharply, and swung his sword viciously.
At this moment, the golden vortex that almost covered the sky and the sun shrouded the heads of everyone, and before they could take out their weapons, the overwhelming group of weapons had already shot towards their bodies extremely quickly, and the next moment, the brilliant edge, terrible screams and scarlet blood instantly covered the entire mountaintop.
