Chapter 130: Redemption
"My name is Payne," said Payne, "and you're a knight?"
The blonde youth chuckled and did not answer. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"If your answer satisfies me, maybe I'll find a way to save you. Payne's eyes were very determined, and his tone was unquestionable.
Payne had long wanted to form a team of his own, and he originally wanted to develop Hawke and Johnny, but the results were not satisfactory. Regardless of the future, even for now, these two do not have the qualifications of bounty hunters.
Of course, he himself is still worse, and Roy is even worse, but these can be improved by relying on equipment, not to mention that he has divine skills, and Roy has extraordinary strength, and experience can be accumulated.
When he saw the young man, Payne was moved. One is the eye edge, although this thing is a little ethereal, but many times it is like this, this is fate, it is difficult to explain clearly.
Second, this person happens to be an unawakened person, and if not, he doesn't have to bother with it.
Thirdly, and most importantly, he was able to save this man's life. And to be a knight, first of all, the character is passable, once they swear allegiance, they will swear to follow, and Payne takes a fancy to this. In fact, he doesn't need the other party to swear allegiance, as long as he can give his back to the other party with confidence, this is enough.
The blonde youth's gaze flickered, "Help me?"
Huh, are you so ignorant? You're still dragging you when I save you?" Payne was amused, but he said anyway, "I need a guy who can give him his back, so...... Are you the person I'm looking for?"
The blonde young man was suddenly shocked, 'Give him your back', this was the first time he had heard this sentence, but as a former nobleman, he could certainly understand the meaning of this passage.
"Are you a mercenary, or a bounty hunter?" the young man asked.
"Neither, but...... My next goal is to become a bounty hunter. Payne said.
"What's next?" the young man snorted coldly, his expression very disdainful.
"You think I'm inferior to you?" Payne smirked.
The next moment, the two dragon claws of Payne's belt suddenly moved, and then two double-barreled muskets were lifted, and then delivered to him at a great speed.
One of the muskets was aimed at his own head from the side, the other from the front, and the next scene instantly shocked everyone present.
Two gunshots rang out at the same time.
The bullet grazed the ends of his hair and flew out, and all the while, he maintained a confident smile.
"Woo......!"
The onlookers were shocked into a cold sweat, and the guard standing aside only felt that his legs trembled, and fine beads of sweat immediately broke out in his head, and he swallowed a mouthful of spit.
Everyone was surprised enough to see the two claws draw their guns, and the next scene was absolutely unbelievable, they obviously saw the muzzle of the gun spew gunsmoke, Payne's head shifted, but miraculously, his head did not bloom.
The first reaction of everyone was that this person must be crazy, but the blonde young man didn't think so, he saw that the other party's eyes didn't even blink, and the whole process was very fast, from pulling out the gun to firing the shot, it was just a breath between the front and back.
This courage, this sensitivity, this is definitely a monster-like existence. - This shook the knight's heart.
"Well, would you like to be my partner?" said Payne, still smiling.
"Quinn, Quinn Humphrey, was once the personal knight of an earl in the Sunset Kingdom. Quinn said.
"So, you're willing to join. Payne confirmed.
"If you can save me. ”
"Then we'll make a deal," Penn smiled, and he smiled happily, and took a knight into the gang, and of course he was happy, although it was.
"Yes. Quinn nodded solemnly.
"Alright," Payne said, standing up, "I'll do my best." ”
Quinn was stunned, then his head pulled down again, and he smiled bitterly, and the sentence 'I will do my best' made his heart sink suddenly.
Payne looked at the guard, and the guard suddenly felt creepy, "Can I talk to Lord Lord?"
......
In the town area of Golden Harbor, in the study of the Lord's Castle.
The obese Marquis of Gereville kept looking at the young man in front of him, he took a sip of the red wine in the glass, then shook the crystal wine glass and said, "You want to redeem the life of that fallen knight?"
"Yes, my lord," Payne said as he stroked his chest.
Originally, he didn't even have the qualifications to enter the castle, let alone him, even a serious bounty hunter would find it difficult to see the lord, but he had the family crest of the Golden Sail family in his hand, and the Golden Harbor also belonged to the territory of Fort Kursted, so Payne guessed that this lord would definitely sell the Golden Sail family a face. Sure enough, the lord met him personally.
After Payne explained his intentions, the lord's face became a little gloomy. However, according to the agreement between the nobles, the other party can indeed redeem the knight's life with gold coins.
"You know, he's a knight of another country. The lord said.
"Yes, my lord," Payne said with a determined look in his eyes, "this down-and-out knight will be of some use to me, and at least it will save me a lot of trouble in Sunset Country." ”
The lord flicked his finger on the wine glass, and after a moment, he looked at the other party again, "Okay, for the sake of the Jinfan family, then it is better to symbolically accept you twenty gold coins." ”
'Smack, smack' The lord slapped his palm twice, the door to the study opened, and a man who looked like a butler walked in, "My lord." ”
"This ....... The lord looked at Payne.
"Payne," Payne said.
"Well," the Marquis nodded, "take Mr. Payne twenty gold coins, and let the down-and-out knight go, his life is yours, young man." ”
Payne didn't feel relaxed at all when he heard this, but felt a little tightness in his chest. Twenty gold coins?Is the cake diamond-encrusted?
However, he only thought about it in his heart, twenty gold coins was indeed a huge amount to him, but for a lord who was guarding one side and was also a lord of a port, this small amount of money really meant a little.
Don't forget, the most important thing for nobles is face, and losing a piece of cake is a small matter, but it is a big thing to damage the lord's face. After considering this, Payne could only grit his teeth and accept the amount, but fortunately, he could really afford the twenty gold coins.
After the Battle of Divine Punishment, Harding compensated Payne with another ten gold coins as a reward for his escort of the Demon Hunter, plus the previous one, he had a total of thirty-six gold coins.
Replenishing ammunition, buying potions, customizing crossbows and crossbow arrows, costing him a total of five gold coins, originally he wanted to go to the Demon Pattern Workshop to buy two more pieces of red dragon leather armor, but this time the wizard didn't give him a chance to enter the door at all, and only said 'no guest in two months' and sent him away, so he still has some surplus in his hand, and now it just comes in handy.
After Payne followed the butler, the lord drank the red wine from his glass with an intriguing expression.
