Four days later, the village, the tavern.

The heads of the four gnolls were tied together, and they smashed in front of the burly bearded boss, and there was still residual blood in the broken neck of the jackal, as if it had just been chopped off not long ago.

"Don't tell me that the bandits have been entrenched in the diamond-shaped stone pillars for more than two months, and have committed crimes more than once, but you have never heard that they have hired gnolls. With his palm pressed on the wooden table on the counter, a half-elf boy in a gray-black leather robe jumped directly to the side of the tavern owner in the counter.

"Uh...... My lord, I can explain this. The bearded tavern owner looked at the obviously unkind face of the young man in front of him, and retreated, and one hand stealthily touched the iron mace under the counter.

However, Zhu Peng's body flickered, and the bearded tavern owner didn't even see it clearly, and his arm was so painful that he was grabbed by the young man in front of him and pressed on the counter table.

"Twenty-seven robbers, four gnolls, because you deliberately concealed that Lao Tzu wasted a high-level spell scroll to complete the task, how to calculate this account?" At this time, the militia patrol of the village and town rushed into the tavern with weapons, and Zhu Peng suddenly lifted his cloak, revealing a handsome cheek that was eroded by the fierce toxin, and the pitch-black toxin spread on the right half of his cheek, like a frenzied hell flower, and even made Zhu Peng's right eye as red as a coal.

Zhu Peng drew his sharp dagger and stabbed it at the side of the tavernkeeper's neck, his gaze glancing, and the terrifying coercion even made most of the militia patrol subconsciously take a step back.

After all, the other party is a strong man who independently exterminates a bandit stronghold, and the side is actually not very reasonable.

Wandering adventurers are generally reluctant to clash with the local militia over trivial matters, because that will bring all kinds of trouble, but once some of these high-level adventurers are really annoyed, there are rumors from time to time that a certain village and town in the Faren Continent will be slaughtered overnight, and there will be no chickens and dogs.

Of course, if you really do that, even high-level adventurers will be hunted down by the big nobles or temple forces, and there will really be no turning back at that time.

Therefore, although villages and towns everywhere want to hire adventurers to work for them cheaply, the strength of high-level adventurers is to crush ordinary people, and the two sides have mutual scruples and checks and balances.

"Your Excellency, Your Excellency...... I, I really didn't know that the bandits had hired gnolls. This, so on, I have anything you like here, you can take whatever you want, and I will refund you the money for the room these days. "The tavern owner, who was originally bent on taking advantage of the situation and then suppressing the adventurers from other places with a militia patrol, was stuck in his neck with a sharp dagger at this moment, and he was really afraid.

Of course, the tavern owner who was coarse on the outside and fine on the inside was still attentive, and did not mention the matter of taking an extra penny in compensation, but just said that you can take what I have here...... Even if I cry poor and prove that I am really poor here, I have no cash to compensate you anyway.

"This lord, the boss just bought a large amount of wine and meat some time ago, and he really doesn't have much cash in his hands now, so I still have a little savings here, and you can see if it is enough to compensate for your losses. The leader of the militia patrol seemed to be the captain, and he took out a coin bag from his bosom a few steps forward and handed it to the counter, and when he opened it, it was full of copper coins, and there were few silver coins, which really met the family income of a village militia captain.

Looking at the double reed performance of the tavern owner and the militia patrol leader, if it is a fledgling adventurer, I am afraid that they will really be mixed up, even experienced adventurers have no good way at this time, most of them just take a drink and leave, but Zhu Peng ......

"Syr, go to the cellar and get some more wine and meat to eat and drink on the way. ”

"Alas, okay. Hearing this, a middle-aged red-haired man in a thick hunting suit immediately came from a corner of the tavern, and she took the key handed by the tavern owner and went down to the cellar.

After about ten minutes, both sides left satisfied. Zhu Peng reluctantly let go of the tavern owner with a face full of resentment, and then took the small bag of copper coins into his arms, and left with the red-haired middle-aged man with a small burden on his back.

"Hahahaha, earned again. I'll just say, he doesn't dare to do anything to me!" After making sure that the three out-of-town adventurers had indeed gone away, the bearded tavern owner laughed, rejoicing that he had saved a lot of money in commission for his ingenuity.

"We can't help it, after four more gnolls mercenaries in that group of bandits, the difficulty is at least doubled, and it is almost impossible to be attacked or killed by guerrillas. I didn't expect that the young man would really destroy the bandit stronghold by himself, and then the business in the town could be restored. The seemingly loyal militia captain also shook his head and said, as if he was also feeling apologetic, a high-level spell scroll can easily cost hundreds of gold coins, and that kind of commission is indeed difficult to raise.

"This time, thanks to the brothers for supporting me, otherwise with the murderous spirit of that kid just now, he would have to take off my arm, everyone gathered here today, sausage rice and two glasses of ale, uncle, I still invited. The burly bearded boss was now in a hurry, and he walked into the tavern cellar to the cheers of the young men of the militia patrol behind him.

However, for nearly twenty minutes, the tavern owner did not come out.

The militia captain in the tavern rolled his eyes, worried that it was not the adventurer who had just been angry and had installed some trap in the cellar, and hurriedly took his brothers down to take a look, but what he saw was the tavern owner sitting in the empty cellar, and the ingredients and drinks that had just been brought in yesterday were now empty and clean.

"This ...... How is this possible?"

At the same time, Zhu Peng and Amiya were speeding to the blacksmith shop in the town, and the disguised Amiya used the space bag to almost take away all the medium and high-end ingredients and drinks in the tavern cellar, fifteen cubic meters of space seems to be small, but in fact, the internal capacity is quite small, and the items in it will not squeeze each other and collide with each other.

"Brother, Sister Emiya, you are really necrotic. Although the boss uncle is a little greedy, he is actually not bad, and the food that the boss lady sent me a few days ago also added pork strips. Although she said that, Rosa still smiled very happily in Zhu Peng's arms, and this kind of stimulation of doing bad things with her brother made the little girl feel very interesting.

"Sodo, aren't we going a little too far, that tavern owner won't go bankrupt because of this, right?"

"Don't just think from the perspective of the tavern owner, do you know how many adventurers will die if you conceal the mission information like this? Many adventurers are just because of the gullibility of these information, their good brothers, lovers died in the mission, not to mention some money at that time, it is not enough to cut such a client with a thousand knives, let's punish him with a small punishment and let him have a longer memory, otherwise there will always be a collapse in the future, and then it will not be as simple as losing some money. While speaking, Zhu Peng received a prompt from the system at the same time.

Cleaning of the diamond-shaped stone pillars:

In February 1279, the month of the Autumn Harvest, while accepting the task of clearing the bandit stronghold, you successfully explored the underground wizard's laboratory, and because of your actions, the villagers of Haken Town vaguely guessed that you successfully explored the wizard's treasure and obtained the legendary treasure space bag. This will greatly increase your reputation among adventurers, but at the same time, it will also attract a lot of prying eyes.

Among Zhu Peng's personal attributes, there is a folklore, which does not seem to increase the actual combat effectiveness, but it will have a hidden impact on negotiations, threats, and even the opponent's strategy against you in battle.

When an adventurer with a reputation of 6 or 70 appears, guys like ruffians, hooligans, and drunkards will stay away, and when an adventurer with a reputation of 8 or 90 appears, even if it is a big noble, the big lord will not be so arrogant.

When folklore/personal reputation breaks 100, even the gods of the heavenly realm will remember your name, and when you stand side by side with them in the future, you will be much less besieged and suppressed because of your great prestige, because you have already proven your strength to the world.

Of course, like other skill proficiency, the improvement of reputation is also easy and then difficult, and now Zhu Peng can get 10 reputation when he gets a space bag, and even if he kills legends like slaughtering dogs in the future, his personal reputation will not rise at all.

........................

Riding a horse to the blacksmith shop, this time Zhu Peng didn't hide it anymore, he poured out all kinds of weapons and armor in the space bag, all of which were the spoils obtained in the robber stronghold, and the other part of the merchant's goods had been sold in advance, and now there were only so many things left to sell.

Seeing the large piles of space bags dumping things on the ground, the village blacksmith Ade was obviously stunned for a moment, and when he saw the heavy steel armor fall to the ground, there was a burning heat in his eyes that could not be concealed.

"With this steel armor as a template, maybe you can make something similar. But you have to eat them all, and you can't lower the price, or I'll take them to the big city and sell them, you know I have the ability. Shaking the space bag in his hand, Zhu Peng said.

Don't underestimate the grocery store, lumber mill, tavern owner and blacksmith, in the context of medieval civilization, they are all people with status in this area, the tavern owner is the most well-informed in this area, and the blacksmith is a strong middle class, Zhu Peng's goal of squeezing money is often them, squeezing those poor peasants, even if they force people to die, they don't take too much of a cow, boring and boring.

Looking at Zhu Peng's eyes in front of him, Blacksmith Ade hesitated, after all, his mind was not as slippery as the tavern owner, after a moment of thought, Ade turned around and went into the room and took out a long box.

"You can all pick and choose the equipment in my shop, and this money and this is all I can come up with. As he spoke, Ade opened the long box, and there were a pair of dark gray short swords lying quietly inside, but there were faint red lines on the surface of the sword body.

"It's an outfit that an adventurer pressed me, and he said he would come back to get it, but it's been five years and he hasn't come back. Looking at the enchanted twin swords in the wooden box, the blacksmith Ade was obviously very reluctant, but he also knew very well that it was impossible to complete such a pair of enchanted twin swords like a work of art in his own life, but the heavy steel plate armor in front of him was more realistic. Once you have successfully analyzed the process technology, you can move to a big city in the future to live and your own children.

"Their name is: Darkfire Fangs, treat them well. Zhu Peng stretched out his hand to hold the double swords that faintly appeared red, and the moment the slender palm made close contact with the hilt, the red light lingering on the double sword faded and turned into two sword weapons like black and gray iron rods without a trace of edge.

Item Types: Short Sword, Darkfire Fangs

Item Level:

Item description: These are a pair of storied assassin swords whose former owners once unleashed a horrific killing storm across the continent.

Master, Phantom, Demon's Hand, Madness, these terrible names still live in the world, life is only a joke in his leisure, the two blades in his hands are his words and deeds, and he writes down a text beside each of the dead: "Knowing my thief, die!"

During those years, thieves were rampant, and many people even dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.

However, such an immortal demon ended up walking on the continent with his daughter who had turned into dry bones, looking for a secret way to turn back time / resurrect the dead. Years later, legend has it that a young girl was pushing a blind, crippled, hoarse old man basking in the sun on the street, and some crazy admirers said that the old man looked like the missing master thief.

However, it was refuted by more people, and it was impossible for the former demon to have such a calm demeanor. The lone wolf gave up his fangs, but finally stole back the love he wanted most.

Equipment Requirements: None.

Weapon Effects: Crazy Killing Intent, Mortal Sword, Dark Fire Haunting, Multiple Sharpness, Armor Piercing.

Others couldn't see this information, even if it was the blacksmith Ade, who had owned it for many years, he only thought that it was a pair of high-quality enchanted weapons, and he didn't know how outrageous the final auction price would be if this pair of short swords were brought to the auction house and recognized, not only because of its own power, but also because of the legend carried by the "Dark Fire Fang".

Once the Thieves Guild knows about the existence of these two short swords, I am afraid that they will come to snatch them with all their might, and their status in the Thieves Guild is almost a bit like the status of the epic sword "Pale Justice" in the Holy See of Light, and its own power is secondary, mainly because the symbolism is too terrifying.

However, Zhu Peng doesn't care much about its added value, it will cause trouble if it is known, so try not to let people know when using it, the whole world will face huge trouble in the future, and the point that the dark fire fangs carry is really nothing to Zhu Peng.

"Deal!"

What could be more refreshing in the world than picking up a priceless antique in a tattered market?

Zhu Peng didn't feel that he had taken advantage of Ade, an ordinary blacksmith had such a thing, once it was detected by insiders, they probably wouldn't have any more living people in their family.

Accepting the money bag, Zhu Peng and Emiya each changed some equipment, and then the two took Rosa to continue riding their horses.

In the memory of the devoured traverser, there will be a turmoil in the Elven Forest in the East in the next two years, a green dragon that has been sleeping for a hundred years suddenly wakes up, and then begins to kill everywhere in a frenzy, the dragons are moody and naturally powerful, so the destructive power they cause is also very terrifying.

Zhu Peng's plan is to go all the way to the east, while exercising and polishing his own strength, while making friends with elves and half-elves, and finally taking them to slay dragons to obtain the blood of the green dragon.

Because the Jinhe City that Zhu Peng had promised to send Emiya to was also to the east, the two sides still traveled together after exploring the ruins of the diamond-shaped stone pillar group.

It's just that Zhu Peng has already made up his mind in his heart to tie up Emiya to the east.

Not to mention that the chaos after the arrival of the Sage is not something that ordinary people can protect themselves at all, just the whirlpool of the Civil War in the early stage will strangle the bones of their father and daughter.

Originally, the two sides were just a cooperative relationship, and Zhu Peng didn't bother to care whether the other party was going to die or not, but the experience in the underground cave, and the performance of Emiya blocking in front of him at the moment of life and death, made Zhu Peng no longer allow her to be confused and break into danger.

In contrast, the civil war of the entire Faeron continent, the rebellion of the sand thieves in the west, and although there is a green dragon in the east to make trouble, but because of the joint suppression of the warrior monks, druids, and elven forests, the situation is relatively stable, in the memory of that traverser, there is a nameless sweeping monk in the Eastern Warrior Monk General Courtyard who does not know how many years he has been cultivating, and he punches out a thousand pounds, if this guy's memory is true, then such a warrior monk will go around even if the gods descend to earth, and the saint will come around.

........................

Golden River City.

The place where the forces of all parties meet, leaning on the desert, running through the river, the pedestrians come and go in black robes and silver knives, and the face is covered with tulle, which is a very exotic place.

Because it occupies an important geographical location as a gathering point for exchanges between all parties, even if the natural environment is extremely harsh, it can still build a prosperous commercial city, but because of the intertwining of forces, the security here is of course not much better.

Leading the horse, Emia sat upright on the horse with Rosa in her arms.

When she came here, she finally didn't need to disguise herself as a man, because most of the women here were slim and covered their faces with scarves, and Emiya even covered her skin more tightly than the local women, because she was afraid of tanning her skin from the scorching sun above her head.

"Sodo, shall we go directly to the Adventurer's Guild to issue a mission to find my father?" the red-haired girl bowed slightly and asked Zhu Peng, who was leading the horse in front.

After this journey, after Zhu Peng expressed his views many times in a "heavy" and "tough" manner, the red-haired beauty with a crisp body finally agreed to follow him to the East.

For girls, the relationship between a lover and her father is inherently difficult to choose.

And Zhu Peng's analysis is indeed reasonable, first go to the south to find Baron Rosa, you don't need to go there yourself, and a heavy reward is offered for a team of adventurers to bring the Baron back. You are likely to add unnecessary trouble and entanglement if you go.

Secondly, Amiya only follows Zhu Peng, and her strength can grow by leaps and bounds, and after lulling Rosa to sleep with various bedtime stories every night these days, Zhu Peng will use a secret technique of collecting war on Amiya to improve her cultivation.

The method of double cultivation, the art of casting the Ding Burning Pill itself is the most orthodox Taoist cultivation method, and now there is a Taoist power like Zhu Peng who works hard every day to help Emiya practice qi and blood, and Emiya advances from a noble girl to the ranger profession, and her strength level looks like flying.

Even Emiya herself knows that now she is no longer the noble lady in Frost Leaf City who has clothes to stretch out her hands, open her mouth for food, and have no worries about food and clothing, the stronger her strength, the better, just like the idea that although the Drow elves are beautiful, there are not many people in the world who dare to fight them, and she also needs enough strength to protect herself...... What's more, the first taste of the forbidden fruit, eating the marrow and knowing the taste, Zhu Peng's techniques are almost like such a master, and it is really not something that a young girl who has just bloomed can resist.

In the end, Zhu Peng promised Amiya that he would find a legendary wizard to prophesy for Baron Rosa, such a multi-pronged approach, and it was impossible for Emia not to be obedient in the end, but in the end, the girl still did so much for her lover, and she was so happy that she cared about herself.

Talking to a woman, only the first sentence she is reasoning with you, and all the rest of the words, she is testing whether you care about her or not, Zhu Peng can't talk about the holy hand of flowers, but he can still grasp the mentality of a simple girl like Emiya, although it is said that a woman's heart is a needle, but Zhu Peng is just young, he is actually a super old monster who has lived for more than two hundred years, especially after many spy missions are superimposed, his psychological age is even more so.

It's just that because of the effect of the Daomen Heart Method, Zhu Peng has always maintained a pure yang heart, so he will not look dull, to put it bluntly, his mentality is young enough.

"Let's go to the local tavern first to ask for information, the people on the street are hurrying with swords, explaining what should be happening here, although we try not to interfere but also to know to avoid head-on collisions. "After more than half a month of travel, it is not only Emiya who has improved by leaps and bounds, Zhu Peng has also gained great benefits in the double cultivation, Emiya's bloodline is strange and full of physical energy, it is the best practice furnace, just half a month, Zhu Peng's strength has been introduced into the realm.

Therefore, even in this scorching hot Jinhe City, Zhu Peng is still wearing the gray-black beast cloth robe, but he is a body that gradually cultivates to a constant body temperature, and the cold and heat do not invade.

Coming to the local tavern in Jinhe City, there were several fat and strong camels in the manger barn, Zhu Peng and Emiya took Rosa into the shop after tying up the horses, which was different from the calm and tranquility of ordinary country towns, the tavern here was unusually noisy, and the black smoke and miasma were full of drinkers wearing weapons.

The maid with round breasts and round buttocks and a round waist shuttles through the narrow gap and places a plate of wine and meat, and in the process, she doesn't mind even if she is patted by the guest on her full buttocks, and she is obviously part-time in the buying and selling of skin and meat.

Pushing the door in, several tables of guests gathered their eyes together, and some of them even touched the handle of a long knife in their palms, but Zhu Peng, who walked in first, swept his gaze across the eyes, like a sharp sword, dazzling essence, just split away the ill-intentioned sight, many people even felt that their eyes hurt, only to feel that the eyes of the man in front of them were terrifyingly bright.

The eight secret techniques are level-by-level, if it is in the wizarding world, Zhu Peng's cultivation of the pupil power of Ying Long's true form pupil can only be said to be first-class in the legendary realm, and it may not be able to talk about top-notch, but in this world, the gaze and eyesight of the beginner level are enough to suppress a group of sand thieves.

"Prickly hands!"

"Those who dare to bring children and women to Jinhe City are really not simple characters. The hostility around him receded, and Zhu Peng took a long breath of Amiya and a somewhat nervous Rosa to sit down in the corner of the side. If a little sheep had recklessly barged in, the wolf-like creatures in the tavern wouldn't mind having some fun, but it was a roaring tiger that didn't want to get into trouble.

"Guest, do you want food or stay at the hotel directly?" The woman who was shuttling among the crowd just now came to the front of the three of them with a smile, Emiya and Rosa didn't say, Zhu Peng is now twenty points of charm, even if the faint diffuse poison lines on one cheek have not completely subsided, she is still evil and crazy, and the coquettish maid's heart is like a deer.

"Special food, wine and meat, and I haven't been here for a while, why is there some mess in the city, is something going on?" With a flick of his hand, a small handful of gold and silver coins were thrown into the maid's chest, and the maid eagerly held the coins while responding to Zhu Peng's question.

"It's sandworms, there is an ancient temple of death floating out of the sand sea in the depths of the desert, a large number of sandworms have been awakened from their slumber, the trade route has been cut off, and many big merchants are so anxious that they go crazy, not to mention adventurers and mercenaries, they are now even hired by wolf thieves, just to reopen the blocked trade route as quickly as possible. ”

Many goods have a time limit, food, medicinal materials, alchemy materials, these things are delivered to the place within a limited time is more expensive than gold, and if it is not overdue, it may directly become garbage and waste, and even many big merchants trade with spellcasters with spell contracts, once the party violates the contract and cannot deliver the goods in time, it is not just a simple price of monetary compensation/loss of reputation.
