Old Adam coughed lightly, nodded and said: "Li is right, the security of the manor has always been in charge of Thomas, about that monster, you can ask him, this time he is also fully responsible, he can represent my opinion." ”

Thomas had been standing next to old Adam in a low-key manner, and only then did he stand up when he heard his name.

Zhang Yang has been paying attention to the expressions of the three people present, Thomas is low-key, George is of course, obviously the two uncles have a lot of trust in the middle-aged housekeeper.

"Stan. Mr. Lee: Right, I'll tell you as much as I know about this monster, but two weeks ago, a demon hunter from France came to the castle, charged us 500 pounds, and ran after the monster, but we chased the blood trail during the day, and only found a pair of tattered boots, we don't know if the other party received a call from God, or was blinded by Satan, but this kind of thing is very distrustful. ”

Thomas's voice spoke at an even pace, maintaining a fast but clear articulation characteristic, which was his habit as a butler, and he nodded his head to show that he understood.

God's call means that he was killed by a monster and blinded by Satan, and this guy took the money and ran away, and the so-called boots and blood stains are not a problem after careful arrangement, after all, there are too many monsters in this world, and people have an almost pathological obedience to demon hunters.

"I can guarantee this, my own life and death have nothing to do with you, my rule is to do things first and then collect money, if you are not as skilled as someone dies, others will not blame you."

Thomas stared at Zhang Yang for a while, then nodded in agreement, obviously Zhang Yang did this first. The rule of collecting money after receiving money can ensure that they basically do not have any financial or reputational loss.

"Okay, let's talk about the monster then."

Thomas gathered his thoughts and picked out the main points.

"About a month ago, or rather fifty-three days ago, we were still doing our own thing, and the town was quiet, and then we heard a loud commotion from the other side of the town, and we rushed over and saw a strong goat pen. It was the first time that he was torn apart by someone and lost five goats, and there was only a foul smell at the scene. ”

"The second time, about five days later, another resident of the town was attacked. They lost a spotted cow and were in time for us to get to the scene of the incident. The barbecue in the other's house was also snatched by the monster. ”

"In this world. It's not uncommon to have such a monster, maybe he wandered from out of town, looking for some food to satisfy his hunger, so he stole it, and everyone found my master, Mr. Adam, in the hope that it could find a way to solve it. ”

"Now it seems. Things are clearly not settled. ”

Zhang Yang shrugged his shoulders, then looked at the empty snack plate in front of him, and unceremoniously took the snack in front of him under George's twitching gaze. Then keep eating.

"That's right."

Thomas gave George a quiet look before continuing: "We once placed something in an open place, hoping to send each other away, or to negotiate peace with the other side, but failed, the other party did appear, but he attacked us, and wounded a man in the prime of life, his strength was great, and we began to suspect its purpose, maybe he did not intend to be a passerby, but intended to settle here. ”

"After that incident, the monster began to intensify, the duration of the attack was shortened from five days to four days, and then to three days, this time not only stealing food, it could be said to be blatant plunder, but unfortunately, this guy accidentally killed a pregnant woman, which made us make the decision to kill him."

"There are three demon hunters in front and back, the first two were frightened when they saw the monster and hurried away the next day with our honorarium, and the third is the French demon hunter, and you are the fourth."

After Thomas finished speaking, he paused for a while, asked Zhang Yang to explain what he had just said, and then walked out and asked the maid to serve some more food, and then heard Zhang Yang ask.

"You've been in contact with this monster so many times, have you ever seen what the other person looks like and what magical abilities they have? Or some preferences, taboos or something? ”

Although he is not a genuine demon hunter, Zhang Yang is pretending to be a demon hunter at the moment, so he naturally has to follow the path of a demon hunter, which is for his own safety.

"The monster looks like a human being, about two meters tall, much more robust than ordinary people, with gray skin all over his body, but he wears a sack over his head every time he attacks, and he never speaks, so we don't know his true face, but it's certain that he's a man, and he has a lot of strength, and he can lift two adults with one arm."

George and Old Adam's faces were a little ugly, in their opinion, such a monster was simply sent by God to punish them, otherwise why would it be so difficult to deal with? Old Adam even wondered in his heart if some foolish things in his youth had angered God and caused him to be punished?

Listening to Thomas's words, Zhang Yang quickly made up an image in his head, and the closest thing to this statement seemed to be the common orcs in the game, with a larger body size than ordinary people, huge strength, and gray skin, Zhang Yang felt that it was very possible.

Anyway, even vampires and werewolves have come out of this world, so it's not strange to have an orc or something.

"Have you ever seen it use some powers, such as evil magic?"

"Not really, this guy only seems to have great strength, and of course, if the stench on his body is magic."

Knowing some of the opponent's things, it is no longer a black eye, and Zhang Yang has confidence.

Thomas looked at the foodie-like oriental youth in front of him, his expression flashed a hint of abruptness, and he asked, "Do you know what kind of monster it is?" ”

"Of course I do."

Zhang Yang looked at the three of them with a smile: "I came from a distant eastern country, and I have encountered more ferocious monsters everywhere, but that was destroyed by my master, and the reason why I went around to subdue demons and eliminate demons was because my master sent me down the mountain to practice, so I saw a lot of monsters along the way, and you said this, I almost guessed what he was." ”

Seeing Zhang Yang's strong self-confidence, Old Adam couldn't help but say: "Then ...... this commission?"

"I'll take it, but I'm afraid the price will go up a bit, because this guy might be a little tough to deal with."

Hearing Zhang Yang's words, Old Adam and Thomas frowned at the same time, but quickly stretched out, as long as Zhang Yang can get rid of the monster as much as possible, it is much cheaper than letting the monster destroy the town, and the other party directly prescribes conditions, indicating that the other party is very direct and will not continue to be later.

I'd rather be a villain than a hypocrite.

"What kind of pay do you want? IMHO, this commission cannot exceed five times the honorarium. ”

When it comes to honorariums, Thomas has turned into a budget-conscious old accountant who refuses to back down.

"I want that sword at the door."

Zhang Yang stated his purpose.

A few minutes later, after careful consideration, Old Adam and Thomas finally made a decision, as long as Zhang Yang could destroy the monster, then the one-handed sword of the knight's sculpture would be given to Zhang Yang, and the previously agreed honorarium was reduced from 400 pounds to 150 pounds.

Pound sterling or something, the main thing is that you will use it when you go out later, not at all, but it's useless if it's too much, and the purpose of the publicity is to put the one-handed sword.

After talking about these things, Thomas was afraid that Zhang Yang would regret it, so he took out a blank contract that had been prepared a long time ago, and wrote the terms of the agreement between the two parties.

The contract was in duplicate, and when the old European cardboard scroll was used, Zhang Yang and Old Adam each held one copy, and then Old Adam went back to the bedroom to rest, and the carriage ran around, which had already made him feel tired, and Thomas left with him, leaving only George to accompany Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang had a hunch that the monster was likely to attack tonight, and he was beaten by the robbers before, he was cold and hungry, hungry, and the wine in his stomach was also discharged into wastewater, and after thinking about it, he asked George to give himself a sufficient amount of supper to replenish his body.

"Lee, you said you really saw those monsters?"

George, who had just turned 21 this year, was very curious, and couldn't help but ask after hearing the boast of "traveling around the world".

"Of course."

Zhang Yang's mouth was stuffed with food, and he muttered a little.

"You say you still have a master? And your family, oh no, what's your sect called? ”

Zhang Yang thought about it for a few seconds, and then looked at George solemnly.

"Dragon Tiger Mountain!"

The food is free, not included in the honorarium, so Zhang Yang can enjoy it boldly and with confidence, George can't help but eat his fingers after watching it for a long time, and the two maids and the cook who got up in the middle of the night are constantly busy, bringing the food in.

The standard of living of the Adam family was obviously not bad, with a large castle, maids, their own business and capital, and even the luxury of lighting up in the castle and a generator at the back of the castle (note, it was 1889, while Yugoslavia invented the alternating current generator in 1888). ）

Zhang Yang, who was well-fed and drunk, was lying on the sofa, next to George, who had no image, and the movements of the two at the moment were very unsightly, but the maid had already packed up her things, and Old Adam had rested, and no one would criticize them.

Suddenly, there was a terrible scream from the window, it was the voice of a woman, Zhang Yang and George looked at each other, and jumped off the sofa at the same time.

The monster is coming! (To be continued......)
