Goiás's figure quickly disappeared into the dark underground tunnels, as fast as if he were being chased by a wild beast.

"Is this guy stupid to us?" Vera snorted disdainfully as she looked at the bar owner who was fleeing for her life, "At first he said he was a son, but now he is a younger brother." ”

"I guess I'm too nervous, and it's inevitable that something will go wrong in the panic. Asa chimed in.

Since he was chosen by the Children of Nature as a mercenary with him, he was bound to get closer to other people. It's just that he doesn't know that Link's adopted daughter is not one, but one and two souls, and he thinks that the 180-degree turn in his personality after changing into women's clothes is due to the need for disguise.

Glancing coldly at the wanderer, he looked cold, Vera didn't do anything in Link's face, and if she wanted to change it to something inconsequential, she would definitely burn this guy who couldn't figure out his status to death.

Link has a completely different view on this, "I don't think that guy was careless, he did it on purpose." ”

"Huh?" Vera and Asa were shocked, "on purpose?"

"The choice of that tavern was improvised, the three people who stayed with me when I left Vaolet, the biggest target, Neam has been left behind by me, you have changed your name, Asa is a new addition, even if there is a master of prophecy, it is impossible to predict. As for me...... As everyone knows, lifeweavers cannot be predicted, so this is not a trap set against me. ”

Vera pondered Link's words, "What do you mean...... This is not a trap for 'Link, the Child of Nature,' but for all outsiders interested in the slave trade?

"The man named Goiás wasn't all lying, at least his feelings were true when he was talking about his son. Words can be fake, but the fluctuations of love cannot be disguised. With the enhancement of perception, Link can no longer only perceive objects, but also inner fluctuations and emotional fluctuations. When talking about his son Ruhl. The grief in Goiás's eyes and the anxiety in his heart were real, so Link didn't think much of it at the time, and he didn't realize until Goiás called his son his younger brother.

Asa's brain spun quickly, and he immediately understood what Link meant.

The disappearance of the son of the tavern keeper Goiás may have been the work of the slave traders. The aim was to blackmail these innocent ordinary people who were not easily suspected, to make them secretly observe outsiders, and to bring all those who wanted to investigate the slave trade to the trading market. But isn't there a certain risk in doing so?

"As you heard, Goiás said that the slavers paid a lot of money to hire mercenaries and mages of high rank. The fact that this slave market has been able to survive for so many decades is enough to show how hard its backstage is. Link had to wonder if Hohenheim was involved in the slave trade, and only then could it be explained why the Dawn Sect had turned a blind eye for decades. "In the troubled times, most of Dawn's combat power is invested in defending against the undead, and there is no extra energy to deal with these. ”

Asa and Vera stopped asking, apparently agreeing with Link's reasoning, and after a moment of silence, Asa asked what to do next, noticing that the guards in the Great Cavern had already appeared and were heading towards where they were.

"Goiás has given us hints. Slave traders would check the identity of each visitor. After a slight pause, Link told Sù Asa that if someone asks him in a moment, he only needs to tell him who he is, "Just say that you are a guide hired by me, and your destination is the new capital of Aiden." ”

Asa didn't have time to digest the meaning of Link's words, as heavily armed guards surrounded them, and a skinny old man pushed aside the guards and walked over to the three of them. If it weren't for the breath, Asa would have almost taken the other party for a skeleton.

"What about the faces you've never seen?" the old man, who looked like a steward, looked the three of them up and down carefully. Keeping his eyes on Link, "Three, do you know our rules here?"

Asa glanced at Link out of the corner of his eye, and then returned to the old man, only to see that he had an extra fist-sized transparent hedron in his hand. Pure white and flawless, emitting a faint fluorescence. It's a magic stone that has been cast! And the carved pattern on it Asa recognizes, and the lie detector can be measured as long as you lie.

This is terrible...... Well...... In addition to being unpredictable, are the children of nature immune to certain types of magic, such as detection, perception, detection, and so on?

Seeing that Link looked like an old god was there and confident, Asa decided to do as he was told.

"Asa, the shadow thief of the Thorn of Shadows. ”

The high-energy crystal that cast the spell didn't react, and the old man, who looked like a dry corpse, kept staring at Link. He was experienced and could see at a glance that the three of them were the man in the middle.

Vera's unbridled gaze annoyed by the guards' presumptuous gaze, and she resisted her rising rage and asked Link when she would be able to vent her properly.

[Be patient, I deliberately let you appear, but not just to disguise your identity. After all, Doyle has been in the Dawn Sect for a long time, and he is still an order sect in his bones, and there are some things that can only be left to you. 】

Link's answer surprised Vera.

[How are you...... Won't the pillar be blamed?]

[The Pillar God is a combination of neutrality, order, and chaos, who stipulates that a child of nature must be order?] Compared to other children of nature, Link's personality and style of behavior are more in line with the neutral camp.

The two were communicating with each other, and the old man couldn't see them talking, and pointed at Vera with his finger, "It's you!

"She is my messenger. Link's words managed to draw everyone's attention to himself, including the mercenaries who stared at the mage with a lewd gaze.

The lowest rank of these people is also the expert intermediate level, and most of them are master level, and there are not many of them, which is enough to deter and drive away ordinary troublemakers. Zizhi has been dealing with mages for many years, and he hasn't paid attention to Vera's robes at all. Compared to the burned stuggers in the tavern, these people have the ability to be confident and presumptuous, but they still underestimate the strength of Link and Vera.

The definition of a demon usually refers to a non-human being.

The old man, who seemed to be in charge, had a flash of understanding in his eyes, he was also a mage, so he was naturally aware of the fire element that Vera had emanated, as well as the demonic power hidden beneath the elves' exteriors.

Have you already made a contract?No wonder the Demon's Breath is so fainter than the elementals. In the past few decades, there have been many monsters that have entered the surface through the big pit of guò, but it is rare to have elven blood mixed like this......

The greed that moves with his mind is too obvious, not to mention Link and Vera, even Asa is aware of it.

He silently mourned for the other party in his heart, Link's breath was too well hidden, and it was not on the same level at all as when he was in Vaolet, if it weren't for the aura that was invisibly exuded that people couldn't make up their minds, I'm afraid that this corpse-like guy would have robbed people directly.

"Since demons don't count, ...... What about Your Excellency? The rules here have not changed since the day they were established, and no matter how high or low they are, they must be reported to prevent the false defenders from causing trouble. "The mage is greedy, but he is not stupid. He didn't feel the elements of a spell practitioner in Link, but the other party called an elf and a demon hybrid a demon, either hidden or pretended! In line with the principle of prudence and prudence, according to the procedure, this prop that was personally cast by the legendary mage can detect whether it is a lie. It's better to be a nobleman who is greedy for new things and fun, in that case, you can find a way to take this rare demon over.

Link's silence caused the guards to tighten the encirclement, and the grinding of weapons unsheathed echoed loudly in the empty cavern.

"I am a wanderer without a subject, and my family, my surname, or even my name mean nothing to me. Link said word by word, he said it slowly, but the mage couldn't think of urging, and the high-energy crystal didn't react, proving that the other party wasn't lying, but it wasn't the answer he wanted.

Hmph~ Think you can't help you if you don't say your name?

"Even if you have abandoned the past, you should reveal where you came from?and, for the purpose of your visit? I, as the steward, cannot let anyone of unknown origin enter the market. The mage raised his bony arm, the meaning was obvious, he had to give Link a credible identity.

With everyone's attention drawn away from Link, Asa quietly moved behind Vera, ready to lurk into the shadows at any moment.

Even if he hadn't said it himself, Asa could have guessed Link's intentions in probing the slave market. It's inevitable to make a fuss, with his skills, it's not enough to deal with such a scene, in case of a fight, it's better to quickly find a safe corner to hide, and wait for the situation to calm down and reappear. Anyway, the child of nature also said that the main purpose of following him is to find out information rather than fighting, and he should not be blamed for his behavior of leaving the war.

"From afar, as for the purpose, the people who came to Nax's City, the ten **, all came to the slave market here, right?"

Link's vague words annoyed the mage in charge, and his other hand reached out from the wide sleeve of his robe, holding an elongated wand about elbow length, a pale hue reminiscent of bone.

"One last warning, identify yourself, or you'll be dealt with as a troublemaker. ”

Link glanced at the mage's wand and grinned silently, "I feel a strong force of order approaching, but you are fighting with me for selfishness, and the person who appointed you to be in charge must be a fool." ”

Just as he had finished saying this, Neham finally arrived, with a lot of splattered blood on his silk clothes, and a gloomy face, not at all like the knight of the morning light, but like a cultist who had just undergone an evil sacrifice.

At the sight of Link, his pupils contracted violently.

The mage exclaimed, and no longer caring about Link, who was carrying the half-blood demon, led the guards to pounce on Neam.
