On the night of Riverdale, when the night watchman Sean took a sip of the ale in his jug, the wine was stained on his beard, there were traces of wine stains on his leather armor, and the flames from the brazier beside him flickered in the darkness.

Habitually frowning, Reese, the partner of the middle-aged uncle who was a night watchman, looked at his companion's drunken appearance, but it was difficult to say anything. Yesterday the daughter of the baron's old man's family in the town, Grace, just disappeared, and it is possible that the captain will come to check on the post tonight.

To be honest, this kind of place is different from other towns on the mainland. Because the biggest threat nearby is not those beasts and other creatures in the wild, but the legendary creature on the top of the lonely mountain peak, which is famous throughout the continent.

Smaug.

So that's why the people in this town are more vigilant most of the time.

Although the Great Fire Dragon is a threat, it will also clean up the vicinity.

"Shh

Suddenly, Reese motioned for Sean to silence him. The old guy seemed to be a bit like he had a drink in a tavern and braged about his youthful adventures. The insight of an old mercenary is still very popular in this kind of closed-minded medieval civilization.

And the reason why Sean, who is only middle-aged, is called an old guy is entirely because the average life expectancy of human beings is not high.

"Who's there?"

Reese's body tensed, and this wasn't the first time he'd encountered such a situation.

The iron sword was pulled out of its rudimentary leather sheath and stuck to the ground. Sean, who was still drinking the ale in the jug just now, reacted faster, and it could even be said that he didn't look drunk at all.

Obviously, there is a reason why the person in charge arranged the vigil for the pair.

The young Reece has momentum, while the slightly older Sean is experienced.

The thick hemp rope of the bell has been grasped by this middle-aged uncle.

In the dark night, the woods on both sides of the road trembled slightly.

"Boom."

With a loud sound, a tall figure slowly approached this direction.

There was no intention of answering.

Reece had taken the bow off his back, and he had mounted the arrow.

"Buzz."

There was a tooth-sore cracking of the bowstring, but to the ears of those who were truly knowledgeable, they could hear the extraordinariness of this ranged weapon. Its state is adjusted by its owner at a stage where it is in good condition, and there will be no kind of oolong event that breaks at the slightest moment.

"Step."

The figure in the darkness grew closer.

The outline of the thing became clearer in the darkness.

"Riverdale?"

One step, two steps, Zhao Qian stood in place with the woman on his shoulder. He had wounds on his body, and the woman on his back was no better. The scratches of the beast's claws, teeth, and branches were always able to leave various marks on the skin of these two men.

"You've completed the main quest one."

In his ears was the prompt sound of the completion of the task transferred from the ticket, and he frowned, always feeling that the task was a little too simple.

Judging from his previous experience, the main quest of the Escape World will not be so easy to complete no matter what.

Not something else.

The two men on the night watch looked at each other and heard voices coming from the darkness, but they did not let their guard down.

After all, humans are also one of the dangers.

"Who's there?"

Reese asked again, his voice had already been heard by another group of night watchmen in the vicinity, and one after another others were rushing over here.

Still didn't speak.

Step by step, he walked to the light of the brazier. In fact, traversing this mountain forest in one day was much more difficult than Zhao Qian had imagined.

At least, he had no doubt that if it weren't for the fact that the woman on his back showed the way a few times, he would definitely have walked around this mountain forest for a while longer.

This is one of the reasons why he carried her on his back.

"Whew!"

An arrow passed by. The sound of the wind woke up the woman who was already tired and lying down. She is not a very hard-working guy, but at least Zhao Qian can still understand this woman's family from the few words that this woman begged for.

She has other values.

"Oh my God!"

"It's Miss Grace."

The two night watchmen saw the woman who looked up in the firelight, her eyes were still a little hazy, and there was more surprise in her eyes than surprise.

That's a big job. Even if Miss Grace wasn't the one they saved.

waited until people came over one after another, and Zhao Qian slowly approached.

In fact, he thinks much darker than these people.

The act of killing good people and taking meritorious deeds is something that cannot be avoided in both ancient and modern times. As long as the benefits are sufficient.

Under the firelight, outside the gates of the town, the defenders who had arrived after receiving the news helped the warrior who had rescued the baron from the pearl. When Zhao Qian raised his head, there were still many middle-aged people who recognized this wheat-skinned young man.

"It's Glenn!"

"It's Glenn who went on an adventure with the Shire!"

"Glenn saved Miss Grace."

Everyone's words are more embarrassing, and they can't believe the fate in front of them.

Zhao Qian listened quietly, but he still heard the truth from the words of these people.

Now his identity is the son of his younger brother who was exiled by the baron.

He lowered his head, so that the men could not see his expressions clearly, and fell into a deeper silence. To outsiders, it is more like falling into self-contradiction.

No wonder.

Zhao Qian thought, his eyes flickering.

No wonder after killing the three strong orcs herself, this woman was a little hesitant after seeing her appearance.

It turned out that she had already recognized her identity.

He looked at the woman who was talking to the captain of the garrison in high spirits, and the way the two looked at him.

This place is definitely not as simple as you think.

At least......

In the afterglow of Zhao Qian, a certain armored hand vaguely touched someone's seductive buttocks. (To be continued.) )
