Nyax, the most inconspicuous of the six towns in the North.

With a population of less than 30,000 and a backdrop to Lake Tanya, the main focus is agriculture and fishing, and the business is not well developed, with the most pickled fish shops along the street and the rest of the shops being sparse, and most of the business is average, although the only four taverns in the town are full every night.

After sunset, people who have finished a hard day's work like to come here to relax, talk about their harvest today, the beautiful girls they see on the road, or just three or five friends simply bragging and drinking, except for something indescribable, which is basically all the entertainment of the townspeople.

Over time, the proprietor and the drinkers became familiar with each other, and Nyax was not a tourist mecca, and few tourists visited, so when a young man in a cloak pushed open the door of the Salted Fish Tavern, everyone inside stopped what they were doing and looked at the outsider curiously, as if they were watching a circus performance.

And the other party was also looking at this tavern with a blank face, the tattered wooden floors, creaking benches, moldy walls, and a faint smell of fish and earth, since the moment he stepped on this land, everything here made Paynt, who had been accustomed to a luxurious life for several years, very dissatisfied.

He couldn't imagine that a guy who had been the patron saint of the Terrans would be willing to live in such a small and shabby place, which made him more and more convinced that the other party had been frightened and hid like a mouse in order to avoid being pursued. Thinking of this, not only did Paynt not feel any pleasure, but the unhappiness in his heart became more and more intense.

is such a guy, the outside world has a higher opinion of him than himself, and to this day, after he has achieved so much, including his teachers, he still only uses him as a substitute for that guy, which is something that Pointe can't bear no matter what.

So when the Matthews family finds him, he hits it off with the other party, and both sides take what they need, the Matthews family wants to kill Rob with his hands, and he hopes to use the Matthews family's power in various places to find Rob.

Now that the matter has finally progressed, he is not willing to wait any longer, and before this friendly visit of the Lionheart Empire is over, he finds an excuse to leave alone.

Paynt arrived almost non-stop, eager to defeat the man himself and prove to those who had looked down on him who the imposter was.

Only by completely knocking down the guy named Rob, stomping him under his feet, and watching him clutch his boots and cry for mercy, can he completely tear apart the haze that has been hanging over his head.

However, on how to deal with Rob, the position of Painter and the Matthews family is not exactly the same, he pays more attention to destroying this opponent from the spiritual level, rather than physically, after all, the two sides are also considered to be from the same family, although Steines does not admit to having this disciple now, but if he really goes too far, even with his current status, he has to consider the thoughts of others.

As for the Matthews family, in his eyes, it was just a tool, and after finding Rob, this tool lost its value, even if he regretted it now, what could those so-called nobles do with him?

So in the end, it depends on someone's performance, if Rob is very sensible and knows to kneel and beg for mercy after being defeated by him, then he doesn't have to kill them all, in fact, Pent is happy to show his tolerant and generous side, of course, if someone has no consciousness of defeating the dog at all, then don't blame him for being ruthless.

The thought only went around his mind, and Caret ignored the dazed-looking townsfolk around him, and took off the small money bag from his waist and threw it on the bar.

The money bag was unsealed, and when it slammed on the bar, golden coins jumped out of it, rolling down all over the table.

The breathing of the people in the tavern became rapid.

It is not easy to see such a large sum of money in such a small place as Niax at once.

Pointe deliberately paused for a few seconds to allow everyone to fully digest the surprise before he spoke, "I came here to find two people, a man and a woman, they moved here three years ago, they are in their early twenties, what their names are now, what they look like, and what they do for a living, I don't know anything about it, but I know that there are very few outsiders in your town, so if there are unfamiliar faces appear, you should have the impression that the first person to tell me where they are, this bag of money is his." ”

The drinkers looked at each other, but for a long time no one spoke, and the tavern fell into an eerie silence.

Just when Pointe was a little impatient, a pair of large hands copied the bag of gold coins.

Then the hand picked up the gold coins scattered on the table one by one, blew on it, put it to his ear and listened to it, before letting out a satisfied sigh and putting it into his pocket along with the previous money bag.

Immediately there was an angry curse in the tavern, "Old Duffy, you are still not from Niax, there are no traitors in our town." ”

As he spoke, there were wine glasses and something flying over.

Old Duffy shouted angrily, "Shut up, damn, four years ago, Lao Tzu participated in the Northern Border Guard, and you idiots are still playing in the mud in the field." ”

As soon as he said this, the menacing people in the tavern suddenly became a little deflated, old Duffy was a member of the defenders of Nyax before, as he himself said, he was also one of the members of the great battle that affected the survival of the North four years ago, and went to Storm's Rest with the team, and although he was lucky to save his life in the meat grinder-like battle that followed, he also lost a leg, and then took a pension home to retire.

The robes who used to train and laugh together in the army all left him in that war, probably because he had seen too many bloody and cruel scenes, and old Duffy became withdrawn after the war, and his temper became bigger and bigger.

Usually when he drinks alone in the salted fish tavern, no one dares to go up to say hello.

The kid in front of him came from an unknown place, and he made a generous shot, and at first glance, the comer was not good, and no one dared to speak easily when the drinkers did not understand his intention, but they didn't expect that old Duffy was not polite.

Seeing that someone finally spoke, Painter's expression softened a little, "What do you call Your Excellency?"

"The name of a small character like mine doesn't matter at all to a big guy like you, and strictly speaking, I've only seen one face, not two. Old Duffy, who received the money, really knew everything and said everything.

"Oh, one has changed its appearance, the other has borrowed the identity of a local resident, it is possible, it will be safer," Point nodded, "Where is the other?"

"Isn't he in front of us now?" said old Duffy.
