"What did you do to Walnut?" Salin didn't say anything about the paper puppet, and he questioned Naris first in the room. There were only two magicians in the entire hotel, and Saleen didn't need to analyze where that paper puppet came from.

Although Walnut was jealous of himself, he promised him to introduce the teacher, which should have allowed Walnut to complete the task with peace of mind, and should not suddenly poison himself.

"I didn't do anything. "Nellis's innocent look is very tempting. Saleen saw her hiding her hands behind her and somehow remembered her tail. Demons, who love to seduce humans the most!

"Neris, Walnut is just a potential enemy of mine, and I may not meet him later. I don't know how you do it, but if you bring the contradiction to the fore, you're causing me trouble. Salin's tone softened, and he went to punish Neris for the walnut, and he didn't have that problem.

"Master, I just want to do this, there's no reason ......" Neris saw Salin's change of attitude, and somehow she said what was in her heart. She was secretly surprised, could it be because of the soul contract? Oh no, this contract was affecting her more and more......

Instinct?

Salin frowned, remembering the terms of biology in a magical notebook.

"Master, this magician is dangerous, he has a demonic aura on him. ”

"He's a demon!" Salin was shocked, there should not have been a demon on the Myers continent for a long time.

"No, no, I mean, he's a lot like a demon. Nellis recalled, not knowing how to describe Walnut as a person.

"Forget it, you are not allowed to make your own decisions in the future, this is the last time. Got it?"

"Yes. Nellis hung her head, her heart snickering. The master really didn't punish himself, well, next time, don't let the master know what to do.

Before Saleen could fall asleep, there was a commotion outside the hotel, and a group of soldiers surrounded the hotel.

Although there were no witnesses to Walnut's killing, the soldiers at the border were familiar with the adventurer's skills and could quickly tell that his companion had been killed by a magician. There were very few magicians in the town now, and the soldiers easily searched the inn.

Flamenco discovers that Walnut is missing, and his heart is filled with unspeakable anger. This magician, who helped him when he was most poor, did not expect that he would cause himself such a big trouble.

He calmly negotiated with the soldier, and the soldier did not dare to arrest anyone when he saw his fifth-level mercenary badge. Level 5 mercenaries, the barons in the town also have to be careful. Because many high-level mercenary groups are actually supported by big nobles, the empire does not allow nobles to keep too many private soldiers, and the number is extremely strictly controlled, and mercenaries have become the objects of courtesy.

The town is owned by a baron, and although it is on the border, and close to the swamp of chaos, such homicides rarely occur. Mercenaries or adventurers who come here won't cause trouble, and bandits won't target such a small place. The baron made his fortune on the taxes of the adventurers, and the two sides always got along happily.

Flamenco reluctantly went to see the Baron in person, and the Baron was very unhappy, but he did not explode immediately. He died two soldiers, and the pension was at least 20 gold coins. However, the other party is a fifth-level mercenary, and if he really turns his face, he will suffer a loss in front of him.

Flamenco was also afraid that the baron would complain to the Professionals' Union, in that case, his mercenary group would at least have a major bad record, not to mention falling directly to the fourth level, and he would have to pay a lot of gold coins.

In the end, the two sides reached an agreement that the pension would be paid by the Nut Mercenary Group, and at the same time, the Nut Mercenary Group paid for the wanted magician Walnut. If the magician doesn't die for a day, the Nut Mercenary Group will have to pay a bounty for one day.

Flamenco still hasn't understood why walnuts are so unproductive. Salin saw it, and when Flamenco returned to the hotel, he called Flamenco to his room and showed Flamenco the hole in the wall.

The icicle, under Salin's control, shot only halfway into the wall, leaving a small finger-deep hole. Saleen stuffed the curtain into the hole, wiped it, and pulled it out. There was an extra hint of crimson on the curtains.

"What is this?" Flamenco couldn't understand.

"A mixture of red sand and dragon's blood ink, the base material for making golems. Walnut he should be able to do simple puppet magic, just a paper puppet wants to enter my room......"

Salin didn't continue, Flamenco already understood. He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked, "Master Salin, something so bad happened, why didn't you tell me?"

If Salin had told Flamenco about this, Flamengo would probably have gathered the rest of the people immediately, caught Walnut, and corrected the Dharma on the spot. Now it's a good thing, the walnuts ran away, and by the way, they left a stain on the nut mercenary group.

"I thought I would forget it, I didn't want to do anything to him, everyone would make mistakes, and as a magician, I should understand the vulnerability of others. Salin spoke with great sincerity, looking less like a magician and more like a preacher of the Holy See.

Seeing Flamengo gritting his teeth, Salin comforted him: "You don't have to mind, I trust you." I won't mention this to the union. ”

Flamenco breathed a sigh of relief, if Saleen told the union about it, his brand would be completely smashed. In the mercenary industry, once there is no credibility, it will be difficult to develop in the future.

In this industry, you can't make mistakes. Many mercenaries completely ruined their future because of their impulsiveness, and they could only become thieves.

"Thank you, Master Salin, on the issue of compensation......"

"You're laughing, I have nothing to lose. Our contract is still valid, you send the four of us to Karen County, I'll pay two pieces of phlogopite, and don't forget to find me 500 gold. Salin made a kind joke, and Flamenco felt better.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, the Nut Mercenary Group first went to the Professional Union's Union to issue a wanted mission, kicked Walnut out of the mercenary group, and then went on the road with Salin and others.

The Nut Mercenaries also had two horses each, much better than the pony that Aini had purchased, and the mercenary named Javelin took the lead and acted as a scout. The remaining mercenaries protected Aini and Salin in the middle, gradually letting go of the speed of the horses and leaving the town.

－

When Salin left, he hurriedly turned around and glanced at the Qin Yin text on the gate of the town-Shenlin Town.

The Nut Mercenary Regiment is experienced and has always kept the horses at a steady pace and consumed the least amount of physical strength. The four mercenaries in charge of protecting Aini observed Aini's reaction from time to time, and the teenager's pathology was all on his face, and it was impossible for the Nut Mercenary Group to exhaust their employers in a hurry.

Sarin's equestrian skills were average, and Sika was the best, and after a few soothing strokes, the horses under her crotch immediately became extremely obedient and commanding. This is the advantage of the Caucasians, they don't even need any contract, they can ride ordinary magical beasts, let alone ordinary horses.

Neris was in the worst situation, and the horse she rode was unusually agitated, as if he had seen through her identity. Fortunately, she had a lot of strength, even much greater than a horse, and kicked the horse in the belly a few times, and the horse finally got honest.

Because the speed is not fast, Salin still has leisure to enjoy the scenery on the roadside.

The scenery of the Duchy of Phoenix is already very different from that of Skociana, where the land is fertile and there are plenty of plains suitable for cultivation. Although it is on the border, there are a large number of villages along the way. The official road is well repaired, the roadside is often farmland, it is already late autumn, the wheat is almost cut, and many fields are drying the harvested crops.

In contrast, the land of Skociana is slightly more barren. No wonder the Skocians were the best at business, Salin remembers that there were very few villages near Ceylon City, and the nobles did not even have a harvest due to natural disasters.

What makes Salin find it interesting is that in the rice fields, there are many scarecrows. The wind blew, and the coarse linen on the scarecrows swayed in the wind, startling many birds who stole the crops.

But there's one bird that can't be scared away, and that's the silver-billed raven. This bird is very intelligent and can easily see through the tricks of humans. Flocks of silver-billed ravens landed on the scarecrows one by one, as if mocking the stupidity of humans.

However, the silver-billed raven likes meat during this season, and the farmers will not lose too much.

Ga!

A silver-billed raven stood on the scarecrow's hat, curiously surveying the procession of horses from a distance. As she passed by the field, Neris turned sideways and bared her teeth at the raven.

The dark eyes of the silver-billed raven flashed with a hint of fear, and she spread her wings and wanted to fly, but she couldn't move.

The team of the Nut Mercenary Regiment was far away, and the raven was still struggling in fear, and the scarecrow at its feet suddenly raised his hand, pinched the hapless raven, and shoved it into his mouth hard.

Blood trickled down the scarecrow's face, and the crow's dying cry rang out for miles, startling more silver-billed ravens.

Drops of blood flowed, and the scarecrow's facial features became clearer, and it turned to look at the distant team of mercenaries. In the nearby farmland, more scarecrows came to life and looked east.

The wind blew over the ridges, and the scarecrow's clothes rattled. I don't know how long it took, but the scarecrow who had eaten the raven first jumped up and left the farmland.

"Master, I'm not feeling well. Neris galloped to Sarin's side and marched side by side. Her horse has been violently tamed and will never dare to mess around again.

"What are you going to do again......"

Salin said weakly, he roughly knew Neris's temper, this is a very energetic little devil, and he can't be idle. If she doesn't let her do something, she will take the initiative to find some trouble.

"I don't know, I just don't feel well. Neris frowned, trying to get as close as possible to Salin, and her heart was also unusually puzzled. After leaving the temple, she found that the humans in this plane were now fragile, and not at all as dangerous as the legend suggested. But the uneasiness in her heart will always come up at any time, is she sick?

"Nellis, don't mess around. Salin urged her to distance herself from Neris, and Neris looked gloomy, and quietly took out a piece of fresh meat from the bracelet, threw it into her mouth and chewed it.

Maybe I'm hungry, so I'm in such a bad mood. Neris comforted herself.
