Chapter 41: The Hunt (1)
Early in the morning, when the morning sun was just out of the horizon, Richard rubbed the dark circles under his eyes that had been formed from staying up all night, and pushed open the gate of the courtyard with a bang.
After yawning, Richard remembered that he hadn't slept well for three or four days.
But for some reason, he feels energetic at the moment, and he can run a marathon of dozens of kilometers at will.
The moment he stepped out of the door, Richard turned around and said to Audrey, who was following behind, "Your Royal Highness, do you know today's date, let me tell you that it is October 7, 3305 in the Holy Light Calendar. โ
This inexplicable sentence made Audrey, who was originally in a good mood, look ignorant.
"Why are you talking to me about this?"
Richard continued to walk straight ahead without looking at the road, his head tilted and he smiled evilly, "Remember this day, because because of me, it will be extraordinary." โ
Richard, who was bragging, didn't notice that he had almost stepped on a piece of shit just now.
There was no doubt that as soon as Audrey heard this, she immediately sneered.
"I'm going to see what you're capable of. Goblins and ghoul mongrels can boast of being guts. Don't even kobolds claim to be dragonborn?"
Her Royal Highness didn't pay attention, and the two companions beside her looked at her.
Thinking of the results of the past few days and Richard's sleepless work, Diana couldn't help but sigh, she looked at Richard who was jumping in front of her, and humming a song, but she thought in her heart that maybe it was really like this, this day will be different because of you.
As usual, she tied her beautiful blonde hair into long braids, and Heloise hung down behind her waist, wearing a gray-black power suit as usual. Carrying a spear, she is called heroic.
And this cold woman couldn't hide the horror in her heart at this moment, and her face was very complicated.
When the last set of experiments was completed yesterday and she finally took off her pesky white coat, the unspeakable emotion continued to this day.
None of them have never seen the world, as ancient heroes who were handpicked by Stolas and resurrected from the cycle of death, their vision can be imagined.
It is impossible for them to be so shocked without a reason behind this.
When a man is happy, he walks as if there is wind on his feet. It didn't take long for Richard to reach the crowded streets, heading towards his destination.
The place he went to was the Adventurer's Guild.
If you want to hunt that demon shark, you must report to the guild in advance. Wait for the guild personnel to review it before you can take a closer step. This is to avoid overcharging. In order to hold it, His Royal Highness the prince would need to send his own messenger to be used as a witness to the hunt. After all, this is a major event involving the feudal aristocracy, but it can't be a joke at all.
Although, it's quite child's play in itself.
By issuing a bounty for defeating Warcraft, it is estimated that it is the first time in the history of the Edo Kingdom that he will be knighted. It's more like an anecdote about a story than a real-life political event.
This weird sense of bizarre is probably the reason why it can set off a boom these days.
When Richard walked out into the street, many people pointed at him.
There is no doubt that he has been recognized, and his affairs have been in a uproar a few days ago, and people have obviously not forgotten the news.
Richard waved around.
Because of the increase in the rate of return and the joy of getting carried away, Richard didn't pay attention at all, the real focus of their group was the three beauties with different styles behind him.
Even the fact that he was discovered was due to Audrey and the others.
It's not often that you can see such a high-value beauty, let alone three of them, and they walk side by side. These are all connected, and who can't remember who he is.
When he arrived at the hall of the Adventurer's Guild and looked at everything familiar in front of him, Richard couldn't help but hold his breath.
The surging crowd, the lively noise, the smell of alcohol everywhere......
They seemed to be the same as the day he had just crossed.
It's just that at that time, with the confusion of the unknown road ahead, he stumbled to accept all this, and turned into an inconspicuous part of it.
Now, he stands out and is destined to no longer be a crowd here.
But what awaits him is a more harsh fate.
Although he was bitter before, at least his life was worry-free, and at this moment, he can carry the curse of the gods and have the power that everyone covets. It's just that his strength is so low.
Is it all worth it?
Richard didn't know.
He only knows that being able to live this life longer is already a reward from God, and he will cherish it no matter what.
With this realization, Richard finally walked in.
The hall was silent for a moment.
Unlike the hustle and bustle of the streets, the lively atmosphere here was swept away by the three presences behind Richard.
The brief lull was a rambling discussion.
"Isn't this the Richard, the one whose ancestors are that one?"
"What did he bring people for?"
"That's right, it's him, look at the people who are following him. โ
"That blonde girl with her pigtails is the master you are talking about. โ
"You say I'm talking nonsense, she really threw stones and broke a wall, and she wrestled with the dragon. โ
......
In the eyes of everyone, Richard walked slowly to the counter to the west.
Interestingly, he was received by Elsa, the girl with brown hair and a little freckles on her face.
"Ah, it's you?"
Elsa was writing something on the yellow sedge paper with a quill pen, and when she looked up and saw Richard, she thought she was dazzled.
It took two blinks for her to be sure that the one in front of her was indeed a real person.
Unable to help but think of Richard's personal badge, Elsa couldn't help laughing, "What are you doing here?"
Richard didn't expect to see acquaintances either.
He coughed twice and cleared his throat, "Please submit an application for me, I'm going to hunt that demon shark, the one in the Kampas!"
In order to prevent the other person from hearing clearly, he deliberately made a supplementary annotation.
Elsa's eyes widened.
She couldn't help but repeat, "In the Campas Riverโthat ...... in the river"
Seeing Richard nod his head clearly, Elsa still asked again, "Are you really sure you want to do this?"
The whole hall was boiling at this moment.
There were some people, who knew that there was still hot wine and food on the table, but they hurriedly ran out, wanting to announce the news everywhere.
- The son of Duke Richard is going to participate in the crusade of the Demon Shark today and compete for the title of the bounty, which is really big news.
In the crowd of people in the hall, the conspicuous corner of the hall also stopped the sound of various wine glasses clashing at this moment.
Nordren looked at Richard in surprise.
He has strange blue and purple skin, tattoos of various plants, trees, birds and beasts, and a pair of antlers on his head. Unlike Droy on the side, Nordren doesn't have the trademark beard, which shows that he's still young.
Because of the mistakes made by this young man, the great druid sage still had a thick bandage on one of his legs.
The man who toasted with him was a handsome man of half-elven blood who could be seen at a glance.
He had a pair of strong, thick arms.
Archipad, the Dragon's Hand, was also a little surprised, looking at Richard in front of him, and then at Heloise and the three of them, his face clearly showing curiosity.
"There's a good show to watch......"
The third person at this table was John the Sword, who appeared most often here.
An eerie smile appeared on his face.
(I'm sorry, there's only this chapter today, and the climactic part is really hard to write.) )
