Chapter 8: Impressions of Seker City (6)
Just as Caldwell was about to lose consciousness, Allendo let go of the fingers that were pinching his throat, and Caldwell felt only a burst of relief, and he half-knelt on the ground, greedily breathing in the air.
Allendo's faint voice sounded in Caldwell's ears, who was breathing heavily: "Isn't it good now, why do you have to scream?"
Caldwell didn't dare to say anything more, he nodded numbly, and looked at Allendo with a very pitiful gaze, he knew that James often caught some guys against his will and abused, maybe the young man in front of him also had this hobby. Caldwell shuddered at the thought of the final outcome of those unlucky guys, he knew that Allendo must have asked him something, and now Caldwell only hoped that the young man in front of him would not be like James, otherwise he would really be worse off than dead.
Allendo showed his strength, and the bloody mercenary who easily provoked him fell to the ground, causing the exclamation of the onlookers, and everyone did not expect that the bloody mercenary group that had always been rampaging in Seke City also had today, seeing that Allendo picked up Caldwell and walked towards his seat, it was no longer lively and beautiful, so everyone slowly returned to their seats.
On the other side of the hall, two mercenaries whispered. One of the young mercenaries said, "Captain Bury, what do you think of this young man, he should meet our requirements, right?"
The mercenary known as "Captain Bury" was about forty years old, and his appearance was very ordinary, but his eyes were so bright that people did not dare to look directly.
Burry thought for a moment and said, "You only saw his skills, but you must not have paid attention to his companions, did you?"
"The boy sitting on the side?" The young mercenary known as "Tedain" was only twenty-one or two years old, he had thick eyebrows and big eyes, and he looked very honest: "He didn't make a move, how can I tell it?"
Burry smiled, patted Terdain on the shoulder, and said, "A lot of things don't necessarily have to be seen with your eyes. If you think about it, the two of them came in together, and they could tell that they were good friends, both in tone and demeanor. When the bloody James provoked just now, the young man took out a gold coin, although this small gesture shows that he is still childlike, but also indirectly tells me that these two teenagers have the strength to easily defeat James and his party, otherwise ......"
"Otherwise, they wouldn't have come to guess the gold coins when they were faced with a large crowd. Tedain said in a hurry.
"Not bad. Burry nodded, smiled and gave Tedain an encouragement, and then continued: "During the fight just now, the young man sitting on the side didn't have any worried look at all, which shows that he is deeply aware of the strength of his companion, but he has no such look of shame or jealousy. They don't look like they look like they're imaginary, so they're not brothers or anything like that, but they can obviously see that they're adventurous companions together, just imagine how a person with such strength can be a companion with a mediocre person who is on an adventure together, and that's going to be born and die together. So..."
Tedain was convinced, "I see." However, I don't think the Bloody Mercenary Group will give up, so it's better to tell them now, sell them a favor, and gain their favor. ”
Burry shook his head and said: "No, first, the strength of the Bloody Hand Mercenary Group is very large, and the number of our six arrow mercenary groups is far inferior, there is no need to provoke such an opponent, and besides, we come to the Mercenary Guild separately this time, there is a very important matter, and the extraneous complications may affect our plans." ”
Alendor grabbed Caldwell by the collar and carried him back to Ryan's side, tossing him on a chair before finding one and sitting down. Caldwell obediently got up and sat down, he looked at Allendo's face at a loss, and then looked at the face of Ryan who was sitting on the side, a round face accompanied by a smile, and said cautiously: "I will say whatever you ask, and I will never dare to hide it." ”
Alendor and Ryan glanced at each other, it seemed that this guy was not too stupid, and he believed that he must know a little bit about the Bloody Hand Mercenary Group from his mouth. But this guy in front of him can be very talented in acting, and it seems that it is necessary to threaten a little bit more.
Ryan gave Allendo a hint with his gaze, signaling him to cooperate with him, and Allendo immediately understood Ryan's intentions, and it seemed that Ryan was very satisfied with the trick he had used in Giethoorn and planned to use it again. So Allendo said to Caldwell, "This friend of mine," and with that, Allendo pointed to Ryan, who was sitting next to him, "I like to be quiet, I don't like to be deceived, if you have to shout like you just did, or lie when answering our questions, you will be worse than just now." ”
Caldwell looked at Ryan suspiciously, the young boy in front of him didn't seem to have anything special, could it be that Alendor was alarmist? Ryan saw Caldwell's face and knew that he didn't believe Allendo's words very much, so Ryan stretched out his right hand.
A small ball of fire appeared in Ryan's palm, and outside of this small firelight, there were small arcs of electric flashing, Caldwell was startled, he didn't expect that the young boy in front of him was actually a magician, but what surprised him even more was still to come.
Ryan released a small ball of fire and some small arcs of electricity in the palm of his hand, which was supposed to be a faint version of the fireball and lightning spells, but the scene in front of him was not shocking, and it did not have the effect of deterrence. If the other party knows the goods, if the short and fat guy in front of him doesn't know what magic is, it won't have any effect, so Ryan's childlike heart suddenly rose, and he decided to use his superb magic control to scare Caldwell.
Under Ryan's control, the small glow of the fire gradually began to blur, and under Caldwell's surprised gaze, this small ball of fire formed a flaming skull skull, which appeared in front of him, and the burning skull was accompanied by an arc of electricity floating around, as if it was the legendary Death Acolyte who came to the Netherworld.
Caldwell collapsed in his chair in fright, and there was no trace of turning around and running away in his heart, but he still remembered what Allendor had just said about Lane's preference for quietness, and pressed his mouth with both hands, without making a sound, and the eyes full of fear and the constantly colliding teeth all explained Caldwell's mood at this time.
Ryan and Allendo looked at each other again, they didn't expect Ryan's little magic to have such an effect, but it definitely exceeded their expectations. Ryan coughed slightly, signaling for Alendor to ask.
