Although Xichi City is located in the mainland, it is not very prosperous, and a few local families have a monopoly on various local industries. As a result, there are many travelers who pass through here, but most of them are reluctant to stop here, after all, for them, the city is just a soulless puppet factory, and there is nothing to remember.

On the other hand, the mercenaries, because of this relatively terrifying reign, they can take on a lot of work. Whether it's as a thug of a big family, or dealing with some "little things" for them, he is very willing.

The original relatively * mercenary association has also become a bit of a miasma because of this, this somewhat slightly weird style makes most of the mercenaries with more status reluctant to stay in this place for too long. For them, even going to a small town is more promising than staying here.

"So, young master, there's no need for us to stay here too long. Although the head of the house said that he wanted to experience as much as possible before going to the academy, it was better to have less contact with this dirty place. "The one who spoke was a magician dressed in very simple clothes, but there was an extraordinary look between his eyebrows. Obviously, under this simple garment, there is something else, but it is not revealed.

The man known as the young master waved his hand, "There's no need, I just want to see what kind of tasks will be released in this kind of place." I've seen and completed many difficult, complicated, and even terrifying missions, but this place is notorious, and I want to see it today. ”

If you observe carefully, it is not difficult to find that this person called the young master is the person who came into contact with Ke Zhou Xiaoliu on the airship. The three people beside him were also the three who had followed the airship before, and at this moment, they were sitting in the corner of this mercenary hall, watching the other mercenaries drink and have fun.

"Young Master, can I kill the three people who just walked out?"

"Don't be impatient, Zhou Ting, what you lack is concentration. The young master waved his hand lightly, calming down the girl who made a voice and covered her face with a black cloth, although she knew that she must have heard something very disgusting, but after all, killing people is not something that can be said casually.

After hearing this, the girl snorted softly, sat down with her back against the sofa again, and continued to drink the wine brought over, but the murderous aura on her body was stronger than just now.

"But young master, you also know Miss Ting's temper, she is not an unreasonable person, since she thinks there is something wrong with those three people, let her do it. A strong man next to him who looked unusually tall touched his bare head and said to the young master.

After hearing this, the man called the young master looked at Zhou Ting again, indeed, this girl is crazy enough, and it may not be a good thing to forcibly suppress it like this. After thinking about it, he was finally about to agree to her move, but suddenly heard the voice of several mercenaries teasing an ordinary employer from the front desk.

"Seriously, if you're willing to let the little guy next to you cool off a few of our brothers, we're definitely willing to escort you both to Shanhe City. And I guarantee that no one will be able to hurt you except for the little one next to you who will be happy every day. A big man said as he drank and pointed to the shorter of the two people at the front desk. The two employers were a little different from the others, they were both wearing gray cloaks, one was about 1.8 meters tall, and the other looked less than 1.6 meters tall.

"Wow, look at this face, really,, I haven't met such a good product for more than ten years. ”

"Damn, this is probably only a teenager, this little girl, I can come once, my life is worth it. ”

As if the person who took the lead aroused interest, a group of ruffian mercenaries around began to gather around to watch the little girl, who was less than one meter six tall, and they kept teasing the girl while drinking, and their mouths kept bursting with foul language, as if they were afraid that others would not know how hungry they were.

This kind of scene was something that the young master had hardly ever seen, and he was observing the situation over there with great interest, and he was still wondering what the person next to the girl would do. But having said that, before he knew it, his own fingers were already pressed on the hilt of the sword, ready to help the two people over there from their predicament.

I don't know if it's because I'm drunk or if it's the nature of this group, a ruffian mercenary actually stood up and walked drunkenly to the little girl over there with a wine bottle. As he staggered, he half-raised his hands and reached for the little girl's tiny body. The drunken hungry wolf hurried towards her, and when she was about to touch the girl, she had a dagger slung to her neck.

"Shut your stinky hands, fat pig. ”

I don't know when, Zhou Ting was already standing next to the girl, her short sword was in the right position, as long as this ruffian mercenary dared to take another step, he would send his neck to the short sword. For her, this kind of thing is very unpleasant, and she can't bear to be hurt by a fragile little girl in front of her.

But the next moment, the "young master" in her mouth had rushed to her side, blocking between her and the little girl, and the long sword in her hand had been unsheathed and horizontal in front of her. This is a situation that has never happened before, even in the face of Wulong, Zhou Yu, whom they called Young Master, did not come to protect her so impulsively, not to mention that the other party was just a little girl who was helpless.

And no matter how you look at it now, this little girl should be the victim, how can the young master be so indistinguishable from wrong and make this child the enemy?

It's just that at this time, a chill that penetrates deep into the bone marrow suddenly surged all over her body, as if she was being stared at by some terrifying creature, which made her a little unsteady. When she looked at the ruffian mercenary who rushed over, she realized that he had stopped not because of his short sword, but because of the biting chill.

Murderous, or terrifying, Zhou Ting didn't know how to describe this feeling, as if something was staring at him, and he could take his life anytime and anywhere. And the source of this chilling feeling turned out to be the little girl who turned her head slightly and looked at the ruffian mercenary behind her. She stared at the man coldly, as if she was ready to tear him apart in the next moment.

At this moment, whether it was scolding, teasing, or discussion, it all stopped abruptly. No one dared to break this deathly silence, as if the entire Mercenary Association was reflecting on what they had just spoken. At the same time, as her face turned back, Zhou Yu also discovered that this girl who exuded an aura of endless danger was the Beibei he had seen on the airship before.

The man standing in front turned around and gently rubbed Beibei's head, and with this action, this aura of slaughter began to slowly disappear, and he returned to the state just now. The little girl's sharp eyes slowly relaxed, and she threw herself into the man's arms and rubbed against her.

Ke Zhou rubbed Beibei's head and looked at Zhou Yu, and only then did he recognize these people. He smiled apologetically, and then asked, "Are you mercenaries too?"

Zhou Yumu looked at Ke Zhou and was stunned for a moment, before he hurriedly put away the sword in his hand and nodded violently, "Yes, yes." He was a little jealous of this person, and just at that moment, he realized: Beibei hadn't emitted that terrifying momentum before, until they made a move, was it just testing them?

The entire mercenary association, including the service staff at the front desk who was already a little frightened, except for Zhou Yu, the rest of the people didn't even dare to come out. Ke Zhou looked around, and finally asked with a wry smile, "Then are you willing to accept my commission?" I want to entrust a small escort to take us to Shanhe City. ”

As soon as Ke Zhou's entrustment was spoken, Zhou Yu was already nodding wildly. For him, this person named Ke Zhou is the real terrifying powerhouse, and everything just now is his test for them, testing whether they have the qualifications to be teammates. If he follows this person, he should be able to get more experience, and he can also get to know such a strong man, which also makes him a little glad that Zhou Ting's reckless behavior just now.

Immediately afterwards, in the quiet environment of the entire mercenary association, the procedures were quickly handled, although Zhou Yu insisted on low prices, but still assigned the commission to Zhou Yu at a high price - even if this little money was not valued by the young master at all.

The team of two people immediately became a team of six people, after all, there were things on the airship, which also made Ke Zhou relatively relieved about these people. Even if there is something, you can use high-level magic to threaten, and the other party should be afraid.

With this mentality, Ke Zhou took Beibei to set off again, heading towards Shanhe City, which was diametrically opposed to Dragon Valley.
