114 Precursors of Disaster

When Nicole returned, it had been a long time since nightfall. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Surprisingly, she was still carrying a steaming bag of steamed buns in her hand.
"It's delivered from the hall, and they're just having dinner now. Nicole put the bun on the desk, and then saw the bow and arrow in the box, and her eyes glowed golden, "Wow, what a beautiful bow! This is your father's, what's that called?
"Goddess Muskmoon!" Ian choked her angrily, and when Nicole stretched out her hand, she immediately covered the box, "Don't touch it." ”
"You, you, you, stingy!" Nicole snorted angrily, and then put the bun back on the desk, "Don't eat it!"
"If you don't eat, you won't eat!" Ian was about to show his backbone to Nicole, but his stomach crumbled out of place.
"Goo--"
There was silence in the room, and after a few seconds, Ian opened the box: "I'll show you, don't break it." ”
"Roger. ”
Nicole happily put the bun back on the table, then lifted her bow and arrow, and looked at the candlelight. Ian pulled out a meat bun from the bag and bit it down hard, as if it wasn't a bun, but Nicole's head.
"The gold is coming back?"
"I'm coming back. Nicole pulled a few gold coins out of her bosom and threw them on the table, clanging, "I wasn't going to come back, after all, we didn't complete the mission." But guess what? The woman we rescued was the employer of this mission. ”
"She's an employer?"
"Well, that's right. The receptionist, oh, the girl who smashed your head, told me that after investigation, the woman didn't actually have a cat at all. It was probably because her brain suddenly became abnormal, so she posted the impossible task. "When they found out, they automatically canceled the mission, so they gave us the deposit back." ”
With that, Nicole put the bow and arrows back in the box. She really just looked at it, and didn't even unfold it, and then looked at Ian very seriously: "Then it's business, guess who I met." ”
"Who?"
"Xiu!" said Nicole, "she's coming for me, as someone from the hall side. ”
"She?" Ian was stunned, "she's from the hall, but why is she looking for you?"
"She asked me a few questions, and then asked if we would like to go on a mission. She said that the reward for this mission was very rich, and if it was successful, anyone who participated in it would have three hundred gold coins!"
"What else?"
"What else?"
"You fell into the eyes of money? She didn't even say anything about the mission, or did you just remember the reward for the mission?" Ian was a little speechless, "She told us to die, and you want to go too, you won't agree!"
"How is it possible, am I that stupid?" she said that tomorrow she would explain the mission on the second floor of the Alder branch in the lobby, and that she would pick us up and decide whether to participate or not at that time. ”
"Second floor, isn't that something that only intermediate hunters can go up to?" Ian thought for a moment, then whispered, "If I'm not mistaken, it has something to do with something in the Tellmis Mountains." ”
"Could it be the Termis Mountains?"
"What is the exploration team?"
"An exploration team is to explore, to reconnoiter the topography of an area, the species of flora and fauna. Nicole shrugged and said, "This continent is so big, and there are many places that have not been reached by human footsteps, so we need an exploration team to explore, to find out if there is any danger in that place." Basically, hunters and merchants team up, but the reward for the exploration team is not so rich, and when my grandfather joined the exploration team, he didn't get more than 100 gold coins per person. And it's a place like Tellmis, and the hall shouldn't have organized an exploration team a long time ago. ”
Ian was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "I don't think it's as simple as the exploration team. ”
......
"You're going to have two junior hunters join the raiding party?" Arnold frowned at his sister, "What are you thinking? Didn't you go looking for the traits in the two of them?"
"I actually know those two people, and there's nothing special about them. Xiu said, "The only thing special, I think, may be because they have slain dragons." ”
"Two junior hunters slaying dragons?" Arnold was taken aback, and then shook his head violently, "How is it possible, two junior hunters can slay dragons, how can dragons be so easy to kill, and besides, how can a dragon still be a junior hunter after slaying a dragon?"
"It's a bit complicated to explain, but I'm sure they've seen dragon's blood. Xiu remembered the dragon teeth and dragon claws in Ian and Nicole's bags, "Maybe it was because they saw the dragon's blood that they resisted Naga's mental erosion." ”
"What's your theory?"
"You should know that novice hunters will be overwhelmed by the dragon's golden eyes when they first see a dragon. It was the unique coercion of the dragon clan, the coercion of the strong, but the old hunter was immune to that coercion, and the golden pupil could swing a knife and shoot arrows freely in front of him. "Perhaps, this is similar to Naga's spiritual erosion, it can affect people who have never seen dragons, but it can't affect hunters who have actually slain dragons." ”
Xiu paused and said, "So, I suggest that the composition of this crusade team must be composed of hunters who have experience in dragon slaying. ”
"But that's going to knock out a lot of people. Arnold hesitated for a moment and said, "I'm afraid it will provoke some people's opposition, you must know that some mid-level hunters are arrogant even if they have not slain dragons." ”
"Then make things clear. Xiu said word by word, "It's fatal, but you still want to save face." If it's the latter, we can't stop it, so don't stop it. ”
Arnold looked at Xiu's firm face and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, so he had to sigh and then nodded.
"That's what you say. There's an old saying, "Ignore human life?" Arnold said softly, "I hope we don't push this raider into the fire pit." ”
Xiu bowed his head in silence. In fact, she didn't know why Nicole had asked Nicole to call Ian to participate in this mission on a whim, such an epic crusade mission, two junior hunters, could really play any role? She didn't know, but she just had a vague feeling that Ian might be able to change something.
At this time, a black-robed man walked quickly up to the two of them, bent over, and then said, "Lord of the City, Lord Wangjue, he has succeeded." ”

The second update is complete. Here are some things I want to say, and those who don't want to watch it can skip it. In fact, I was also struggling these days, because I felt that the book had been written quite well, and I tried my best to write it well, but the results of this book were not ideal, and I didn't know what the results would be after it was put on the shelves, and whether it would make me lose the motivation to write. In fact, I'm also very puzzled, if an online writer doesn't write urban yellow essays, doesn't write fast-food-style fantasy upgrade essays, and doesn't have a fixed routine, can he really get along without a fixed routine? I think there are a lot of urban fantasy so-called gods, and I can't read their books at all, but why are so many people chasing them? I don't know, I don't mean to target anyone, I really want to be a good online writer, at least to support myself, but I'm really, really, really don't want to write those novels, I don't mean to look down on them. This novel is actually quite brain-consuming, although I don't have to worry about today's protagonist's affair with whom the protagonist is like an urban novel, and I don't have to worry about the contradictions and conflicts with who and who all day long like a fantasy novel. All I think about is how a young boy can deal with powerful dragons when he has no special abilities, no magic, and no martial arts. Then make yourself strong and trample it to death like a bedbug, like Ian did when he first slain a dragon. I remember Jiang Nan said that every hot-blooded boy had a giant dragon in his dreams, and I also wanted to be the hunter who burned out his blood. So, even if the book was really like that, I would finish it with my heart, and as Ian said, I don't want to run away anymore. So, thank you to all the readers who enjoyed reading this book and left messages to support me, whether it was in the creation or at the beginning, I have read it, you are the motivation for me to continue writing.
I had dreamed of a young man with a flaming bow and arrows on his back, and above his head was a dragon that covered the sky.
