Horn was sitting on top of a boulder at this time, looking down intently, a group of men who were five big and three thick, digging in a large pit. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

This is a gourd-shaped canyon in the Demon Cloud Valley, and the dense charred bones scattered from here still show that there was a battle here before, and a large number of demonic beasts were killed here.

Of course, Horn came here with a group of former mercenaries to collect the corpses of these magical beasts, they came here to develop the minerals here, and there is a fire element mine underneath.

In the past, Horn would never have imagined that one day he would change from a mercenary group leader to a mine supervisor, which couldn't help but make him sigh a little unpredictable about this fact.

And it is precisely because of this that Horn admires Char even more, and he can take the Demon Cloud Valley as his own under the noses of the mercenaries and adventurers in Yorktown, and finally directly co-opt the mercenaries and adventurers in Yorktown.

And as Horn sighed, a voice sounded from behind. "Brother Horn, how have you been lately?"

Horn heard this familiar voice and hurriedly turned around, and a young man with black hair and black eyes didn't know when he had arrived behind him.

"Char-sama, you can call me Horn, I've been doing well lately. Horn stood up and said respectfully. He is a person who can put himself in the right position, but when he finds that the facts can no longer be changed, Horn will definitely not let go.

Char just smiled at Horn's deference and didn't reluctantly correct anything.

"Say, are things going well?"

"Report to my lord, things are going well, the mercenary resources become miners more actively than expected, and because the physical strength of mercenaries and ordinary people is much better, the mining of fire element crystals is also very fast, and the first batch of fire element crystals has been mined. Just ・・・・・・"

"Just what?" Char looked back at Horn.

"It's just that there are a very small number of mercenary adventurers who have neither left Yorktown nor joined us, but are still active in the Demon Cloud Valley, exploring deeper into the Demon Cloud Valley, Char-sama, are we going to take measures?"

"Well, it's true that you can't just leave it alone. Char nodded.

"You'll go to the Adventurers' Guild to enact a long-term exploratory quest that will reward them for providing useful information about the depths of the Demon Cloud Valley. And if a mineral is discovered, the reward is doubled. ”

Although these people are not his people, they are not impossible to use for him, the depths of the Demon Cloud Valley stretch all the way to the center of the Wanshou Mountain Range, and Char will not let go of these places.

And they wanted to explore, so there were pathfinders who took the initiative to come out, how could Char not welcome them.

Char cares about the minerals contained in the Demon Cloud Valley, these things can't be mined without manpower, and as for the treasures left over from ancient times, let's not mention the pitiful ones with a small chance.

Even if these guys are lucky, they really pick up good things, and they just grab it, this entire Dark Death Ridge is now his Char's territory.

After a few more words of explanation to Horn, Char left the Valley of the Devil and came to the town of Yorktown. In fact, he returned to Yorktown this time, not only to check the progress of the Demon Cloud Valley, but also to have a more important purpose, he wanted to meet someone, someone who helped him a lot at the beginning.

・・・・・・・

Quiet and remote streets, sparse crowds, this seems to be a forgotten corner of Yorktown, and after crossing a street, the familiar sound of striking iron comes from a blacksmith shop, and next to the blacksmith shop, there is a half-collapsed adobe house, which was the former home of Char and Yaya.

"Uncle Lin, Yaya and my brother are back to see you. The blonde little Lori excitedly pulled Char and rushed into the blacksmith shop.

The shop was empty, but in the casting room, the sound of striking iron did not stop, Yaya opened the curtain of the back door with a big grin, and a man with countless scars on his upper body was hammering a piece of red-hot cast iron.

"Uncle Lin, Uncle Lin, do you know? Yaya and her brother have experienced a lot of things during this time. Seeing that Lynna didn't pay attention to herself, little Lori went up to herself and happily told Lynna about her and her brother's adventures.

"We entered the Demon Cloud Valley earlier, and saw a very big and powerful bone dragon, that dragon was very powerful, but in the end it was killed by my brother with a drop of water, my brother is so powerful. There is also a big snake, the snake is so big, so big, Yaya originally wanted to cook it and eat it, but her brother didn't let her ・・・・・. I saw that little Lori was waving her hand to describe, and the expression on her face changed rapidly.

"By the way, Yaya also found dragon eggs, one was eaten by Yaya, and the other hatched, named Xiaojin, is a very cute little dragon, Uncle Lin, look. The summoning seal on her chest flashed, and a golden beast the size of a puppy appeared in Yaya's hand.

And Linna finally turned his head at this time and looked at the golden dragon.

The little golden dragon yawned, as if he had just woken up, and was about to protest against Yaya, but first noticed Linna's gaze. Stared at by those empty and dead eyes, the little golden dragon suddenly shivered, and hurriedly drilled into Yaya's arms.

"Xiao Jin, you are so timid, and Uncle Lin is not a bad person. Looking at the panicked little golden dragon, Yaya pursed her mouth, pulled Xiao Jin's tail, and said unhappily.

But Xiao Jinlong didn't pay attention to it at all, just grabbed Yaya's clothes and didn't let go no matter how Yaya pulled it.

On the other hand, Char consciously cleaned up the kitchen and began to cook with the ingredients he bought, and after a while, the aroma began to come out of the kitchen.

And Yaya and Little Golden Dragon, who smelled the fragrance, also sneaked in, threatening to help catch the little gluttonous cat, and then the two little guys were carried out by Char.

When Char was cooking, Rinner finally called it a day, only to see him go outside, pour two buckets of well water, change his clothes and come to the dining table.

Char and Yaya also sat down, the table was very quiet, just like before, they finished eating quietly, and then cleaned up the table together until everyone sat back at the table again.

"You're going out. Linner finally spoke, his voice calm and calm.

"Yes. Char touched Yaya's head. "I'm going to take Yaya out to have a look. ”

Lynna was silent for a moment before nodding. "It's okay to go out for a walk. ”

"Uncle Lin, this is for you. The spatial ring flashed, and Char placed a bottle full of life on the table.

"It's ・・・・・ eaux-de-vie!" After recognizing the contents of the bottle, Linna's gaze only flickered slightly, and then it was dim again.

"Uncle Lin, thank you for taking care of me and Yaya for so long. Char pulled Yaya to her feet and bowed to Linna.

Lynna looked at Char and Yaya and didn't make any moves, but when Char was about to leave, Rinna finally spoke. "You're going to Shake the Sea City. ”

Char was stunned for a moment when he heard this, he didn't expect Linna to know this in the blacksmith shop, so he nodded. "Yes. ”

"Then bring this with you. With a flick of Linna's hand, a golden sword appeared on the table, and when Linna's hand detached from the golden sword, the golden sword suddenly trembled violently.

A trace of the sword body suddenly emerged from the scabbard, and in an instant, a strong murderous aura swept through the entire house, making people fall into the ice cave, and it seemed that countless sharp swords were pressed against their necks.

In an instant, Char almost saw countless corpses appear in front of him, and among those corpses, the back of a man covered in blood appeared.

At this moment, Lynna gently reached out and tapped the scabbard, the trembling golden sword finally calmed down, and the illusion that Char saw also disappeared at this time, only the words "Dragon Chaser" on the hilt of the sword exuded a faint brilliance.

Taking a deep breath, Char glanced at Lynna in awe, which made Yaya pick up the sword, and then got up and walked towards the door.

And as Char walked out of the blacksmith shop, Fred Xiaoqin Mansha and others, who had been waiting outside, also came over, and behind him, there was a whole row of guards.

Watching Char and Yaya leave, Rinna's gaze returned to the small bottle containing the eaux-de-vie, and he was fascinated and seemed to be caught in a memory.

After a long time, Lynner suddenly laughed, he didn't seem to have laughed in a long time, so his smile was particularly stiff and ugly.

"I've grown up. Linna muttered to himself, his originally dim and empty eyes also had a little more brilliance, and in his heart, the barren battlefield where only death remained unchanged for eternity quietly sprouted a trace of life.

The dead will eventually pass away, and the new ones will embark on the journey bravely, just like their predecessors.

After all these years, Linna's wounds finally showed signs of healing, but the reason for the healing was not the water of life.
