Chapter 18: The Uninvited Guest

The retro two-story cottage, with red brick and stone walls, two exquisite wall lamps inlaid on both sides of the brown wooden door, the waiter opened the door in front of him, and followed into the house with a cursory glance, and the mood of wanting to stay here for a long time immediately appeared in Watson's heart.

In the center of the hall on the first floor is a slightly low-lying living room, not only a pale yellow sofa that can accommodate three or four people, but also two single guest positions on both sides, and a large fireplace is built directly opposite the sofa against the wall, and next to it is stacked with wood blocks that have been chopped and can be used directly, Watson can even imagine himself sitting on the sofa in winter and drinking milk tea.

At the back of the living room was the kitchen, and Watson took a few steps forward and looked at it to see that some basic utensils were already prepared, and there was a mahogany dining table and four or five chairs of the same material.

"Sir, it seems that you are quite satisfied with the first floor, then please allow me to explain the situation on the second floor, the middle and two sides of the second floor are three bedrooms, each of which is quite complete with facilities, the vertical cabinet in the bedroom is a brand new bedding, and the middle bedroom is the master bedroom, on both sides of it there are two study rooms and workshops dedicated to your work or reading, and the layout is also quite complete. Do you need me to take you to check it out?"

The waiter was also looking at Watson while he was in the hall on the first floor, and only after noticing that there was no disgruntled expression on his face did he continue to speak.

"We'll talk about that later...... Is it true that the rent for this house is only 5 silver coins a month, and I think the price of this kind of house should be more than that. ”

From the moment he entered this room, Watson had such doubts in his heart, to say that the relationship between him and Otto was not related, at most there was only Lafat as an intermediary, and the other party was now so generous and directly let him live in this kind of place that was not so much a small building as a small villa, which made him a little unsure how to think about it.

"You're right, this is one of the best of our Doug properties in the mid-range, at a normal price point...... It costs about 15 silver a month, but since Mr. Otto has brought me the key to this house, you don't need to worry about it at all, as long as you think this house is good, you can live as long as you want on the premise of paying rent every month. ”

The waiter answered Watson's question faithfully, during which he quietly expressed Otto's care for Watson, and the meaning of this is self-evident.

"I see, go back and tell Mr. Otto that I owe him a favor, and ...... I'll take a look at the next room myself, you can leave the key and leave. ”

Watson patted the head of the dumpling next to him with a somewhat strange expression, and said after looking at the master bedroom upstairs.

"Comply with your requirements, if you have any dissatisfaction, you can always come to Doug Real Estate to find us, we will give you a satisfactory answer. ”

The waiter bowed slightly, put a bunch of keys in Watson's hand, and left the room.

Closing the door, Watson didn't rush to the second floor to see the bedroom, but went into the kitchen and began to prepare dinner for himself, although there were no fresh vegetables, but Watson had already bought fresh meat on the side of the road before he got here.

After spending some time making myself a bowl of wontons and two cans of fish for the dumplings, I sat on the dining table in the kitchen and ate silently, while my eyes kept staring at the master bedroom on the second floor, and I said to myself: "Don't you leave, it seems that if I don't teach you a lesson, I really make this your home......"

Picking up the plate and putting it in the sink to rinse it off, Watson beckoned to the dumpling to jump on his shoulder, walked up to the second floor and was about to open the door to the master bedroom when he suddenly stopped, paused and turned straight left into the next workshop.

He took out the book and tools that Morry had given him earlier and put them on the wooden table in the center of the workshop with his back to the window, then walked to the window and began to take out the bullets he had stored in his pocket and began to arrange them neatly one by one.

At this time, a dark shadow outside the window behind Watson was watching his movements, the bright dagger was slowly pulled out of the black shadow's waist, the bolt of the window was silently pulled open, and almost at the moment when the sound of the window being pushed open, the black shadow jumped into the dagger in his hand and stabbed Watson in the back.

Twin Blades: Wind Slashing!

But Watson seemed to be prepared, and before the dagger could get close to his body, he had already finished turning, raising his knife in his left hand to block the dagger, and swinging his right hand at the neck of the sneak attacker.

Sting

The cracking sound of clothes sounded, and a bright red blood line appeared on the shoulder of the sneak attacker, it seemed that the other party's reaction was not slow, and the sneak attacker turned sideways at the same time as Watson took out the knife, so that the long knife that should have been cut on the neck could only fall on her shoulder.

Yes, she! The assailant was a woman, and the lights in the workshop had been turned on before, so Watson could already see the other's slender body and bulging boobs when he turned around, but that didn't change anything.

In the case of the other party's first attack, Watson will not care if the other party is a woman or not, all people or monsters who dare to attack themselves have only one identity, that is, the enemy, and the best enemy is, of course, the enemy who lies on the ground wailing or dies!

Dark energy spilled out of Watson's arms, and the black claws once again rested on the long knife grips of Watson's hands, and seeing that the second stage of the slashing wind was about to start, a thick fog suddenly appeared around the sneak attacker, and within a few seconds, Watson's vision was filled.

Twin Blade Flow, Blade Wind!

The whirlwind of the spinning knives blew away the fog almost instantly, but the sneak attacker who had been in front of him was gone, only the two open windows swayed constantly, and the black figure jumping between the buildings in the distance.

"Smoke bombs?"

Picking up a projectile from the ground that was still oozing smoke, Watson put his knives back into his waist and then took them off with the scabbard and put them on the chair next to him, in fact, Dumpling had already noticed that there were outsiders upstairs while the waiter was still there.

Watson didn't go at first because he thought the other party might have stayed here because he thought the house was unoccupied, and now he knew that someone was already occupying it, and he would leave soon.

Going into the kitchen to eat dinner is also to give the other party time to leave, but I didn't expect that until the dinner is over, the other party has no intention of leaving, so the meaning of the matter is different, if it may have been a temporary residence without malicious intent before, then now it has become an invasion with some purpose, for this kind of person, Watson will naturally not give the other party good fruit to eat.

This will be used as a place for him to rest in the future, if people can come and go casually, how can they sleep well that night, so after washing the dishes, Watson quickly went upstairs, and just as he was about to open the door of the master bedroom, the dumpling sent another message, and the other party's position had changed, and he was standing on the beam under the window of the studio.

All the actions made by Watson are to lure the other party out, and then counteract when the other party makes a move, in order to kill the enemy with one blow, although the current result is a little different from what he imagined, but he has no intention of continuing the pursuit, not to mention that the opponent's body is quite agile, in fact, he is not interested in a dark night chase with the sneak attacker now, and he runs away, and the scar is enough to make the woman dare not come back and disturb him.

And compared to the woman who sneaked up behind the attack without asking the reason, Watson now has more important things, moving a rattan chair to the table, putting the rune bullet making book in front of him, and then he wants to try to make his own rune bullet, because he now needs enough funds to support him to further strengthen himself.

You must know that the equipment on Watson's body now, strictly speaking, has no equipment to take except for the ambition that Morry gave him and the windbreaker of the Demon Hunting Guild, the leather armor on his body can play a negligible protective role in the real fight against monsters, and the two long knives he uses as his main weapons, the best equipment level that a blacksmith in a small town can build is limited, and Watson's recent goal is to get two better long knives.

As a big city equipment maker, of course, there is no shortage of Wildas, and it is easy to find, there are several specially marked on the map in Dongcheng District, and the problem is that the coins needed to ask the equipment makers in these shops to make a good enough long knife can only be in gold coins, and Watson's current reward for a task is only a few gold coins at most.

Don't think it's less, this is already quite a high price when other professions first start, of course, there is a risk of matching it, the task of the demon hunter to make money is more of a consensus in various industries, but no one expresses envy or jealousy, because everyone knows that the reason why the demon hunter can get such a high reward is that the demon hunter is facing monsters with all kinds of weird abilities, not like them, most enemies are only humans.

To get back to the point, Watson who wants to make money quickly can't do a lot of tasks to the death, so he can only make a fuss about rune bullets, the price of an ordinary rune bullet can be fried to about 5 silver coins on the market, and those special bullets such as burst flames and freezes are difficult to make, but once they are successfully made, then their price will be above ordinary rune bullets, which is basically a lifeless for Watson, provided that he can make rune bullets.

The most basic and important thing in the production of rune bullets is to depict runes, and the rune traces in the process of carving must not have any breakage, otherwise the ability will not be infused, and the bullet will be scrapped. Most runes can't be done with one hand, because their runes are very complex, and it's impossible to carve them in one stroke, but in order for rune bullets to be effective, they must be charged and sealed in a relatively short period of time, otherwise those painstakingly carved runes will just be meaningless scratches.
