Chapter 364: The Awakened Apprentice

At first glance, Galona's abandonment of resistance may seem unexpected, but when you think about it, she really has no other choice, so it can only be said that it is still reasonable. The problem was that the long list she had provided was not a list at all, according to Charinde, who had come to deliver the water and glanced at it by chance, but a summary list of the killers of the Rushing Capital. It's amazing that Catwoman can say all of these names like a few treasures, and add a comment or two of her own, and listen to the meaning of her words, these killer organizations or individuals have dealt with her in some way.

"You're going to be a broker with all of that, and I promise you'll do better than the guy with Grimace. Jerry shrugged and commented. Killer is a profession with a high consumption rate, its threshold is low, but the requirements are ridiculously strict. Most of the very few killers who survive a brutal career will use their experience to do two kinds of work, namely the cultivation of new killers and the middleman for killers who already have a certain level of skill to earn commissions. Having an old killer who has retired from the front line as a guide can greatly reduce the probability of death of a newcomer, and of course, the reduced probability is still high and scary.

"I'm not interested in doing that, how much less fun should I have sitting in the rear? Besides, do you know what happened to those who thought they could already be brokers? Once you start trying to survive in an easy way, you can no longer hold a knife. "Killers are not assassins, in a sense, assassins are disposable, they are only prepared for one shot in their lives, all their skills, specialties and even emotions are only to brew the final blow. So the Assassin can grow old, but the Killer cannot.

"It looks like Atta is really popular. Also, money can pass through the gods, and in the face of sky-high wealth, it is difficult for anyone not to be tempted. Besides, they were originally eating this bowl of rice. The mage put down the quill pen, not because he had finished the list, but because he had run out of ink to write. While waiting for the dwarf to bring new ink, he was finally able to catch his breath and move his wrist.

"Hmph, you don't seem stupid, you know how powerful gold coins are. But have you ever thought about it, it's not just killers in this world who are driven by gold. It is no exaggeration to say that there are many murderers in this world, but there are few of them who kill people as a business, and most of the people who kill people are people who don't seem to know how to do it. For example, the owner of an inn. The female killer said lightly, her eyes half-closed and half-open, as if unintentionally, as if intentionally, "I don't know why the dwarves accepted you. But you'd better think about what will happen when the bounty for killing that girl outweighs your friendship. ā€

But what good is it for her to sow discord now? Even if there is a gap between the team and the dwarves, most of the female killers who have been captured will not have a chance, and even if the cheese is ruthless, in order to reduce the hidden danger, it is possible to kill her. It's just that she just wants to point out this thing that is not good for herself, maybe this is nature, some people are born without trust, and they can't see loyalty. And it's not that they simply don't understand this kind of thing, it's just that they've experienced too many betrayals and too many injuries to accept that others have something they don't have.

Cheese just nodded, noncommittal in response. He knew what the Breath of Dawn meant to the dwarven race, the world only said that the dwarves loved precious stones and gold, but they did not know that they valued the craftsmanship and traditions of the people more than ever, and every masterpiece was a treasure of immeasurable value, they were not allowed to be defiled, and they must be recovered from the dwarven treasury by the most legitimate means. Until then, the dwarves have been happy to give it to their favourites, who will use their masterpieces to create their own legends for those treasures. When the Grand Duke of the Hammer gave his creations to Cheese, the mage was already a special individual to the entire dwarven race, and his mission was to write a legend for the dwarven masterpieces in his hands that would be sung for all generations. Until then, the dwarves will not intervene.

"It's not easy to do, according to what you said before, if you want to make all the guys on this list know the difficulties before we leave, I'm afraid it may not be possible to do it by a dragon. The cat fairy stroked this beard, he didn't care about the dwarves, he only cared about the safety of Atta, he glanced at Garona, "Why don't we slaughter this girl first?"

Everyone could tell that Kailas was unhappy with Catwoman's provocation, and they certainly wouldn't choose to use that method to try to intimidate their enemies. Dead people are not uncommon in places like Rush, and it can't scare anyone except those who don't want to get into trouble. Of course, if Cheese and the others can uproot forces such as the Nine Rings and build a bloody landscape in a very short period of time, it will be a different story. Judging from last night's situation, it was not an easy task to hit the Nine Rings Gang hard, and the weapon from the Sword Gate was far more difficult to deal with than it sounded.

"Whoa..."Maybe the discussion of several people was too noisy, or maybe it was the weak body under the care of Cheese finally regained the ability to move. With a slight moan, the people in the room fell silent and looked at the thin child lying on the bed. He had a fawn-like bulge on his head, fish-like scales on his hands stretching out of the blanket, his eyes slightly bulging outwards like rabbits, and his nails slightly curved like eagles... There are all kinds of strangeness in his body, and it stands to reason that according to the law of bestiality, the characteristics of these different species cannot coexist, and only when the alienation of the body becomes like that of Galona with a more unified orientation, the disease will be alleviated. But perhaps it was the power of the forbidden force, or perhaps the power of qi, and these visions coexisted in that child's body, and they lived in harmony for a while.

The mage rolled up the list casually, his apprentice was far more important than the timid killers. The grey robe stood up and walked to the bedside, waiting for the child to wake up further. When Cheese's face was reflected in those confused eyes, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "It seems that you have survived, and it is not in vain that I have spent so much effort." How do you feel now?"

"I... I—" The child opened his mouth and made a muffled sound, and his tongue and vocal tract should also have a tendency to alienate, so the familiar pronunciation method did not work completely.

"It's okay, take your time, take your time, there's no one here to rush you. Come, try to say your name first, tell me your name. ā€

"Especially... Ni..."

"Yoni, I'm going to inform you now that you're going to be a gray-robed apprentice, my apprentice. Remember my face, my voice, my clothes, but don't forget. ā€
