"No wonder. Merge pouted.

"What's the wonder?" the honest iron head looked at Merge with a puzzled face.

"No wonder when I woke up, I saw your big bald head, not a beautiful and beautiful bright priest sister, nor a lovely pharmacist sister. Merge shook his head, obviously complaining about the fact that the head of the Taihu Regiment let the five big and three thick men take care of himself.

However, seeing Iron Head scratching his big bald head with an embarrassed and guilty expression, Merge immediately clutched his stomach and laughed out loud.

"You didn't give me any medicine during the days I was in a coma, didn't you?" Murge asked after a moment's laugh.

Tietou nodded, "After the Ning family came to pick up Battalion Commander Ning Meng and Senior Gong Yong, the Battalion Commander and Senior Oleer left you a lot of precious potions and supplements to restore your vitality, and the Commander also sent a lot of expensive potions. ”

"They have a conscience, but I don't need to pay the same amount of gold coins for these expensive potions, right?" Merge asked tentatively, raising an eyebrow.

Tietou nodded again, and said with a humble expression: "The head of the regiment has explained that the cost of these potions and supplements is offset by the gold coins you earned from repairing the battle armor. ”

"Holy!" Murge rolled his eyes.

Merge rubbed his slightly dizzy temples and felt a dull ache in his head and chest. It was all the gold coins that Merge earned by repairing his battle armor day and night, and he just slept like this, and it was gone.

At this moment, Merge really wants to cry without tears.

In the evening, after bidding farewell to the head of the Taihu Regiment and the Iron Head and others, Merge left the border guard camp and returned to the alchemy hut.

Originally, a group of soldiers who were more familiar with Merge planned to drink with Merge to celebrate, but because Merge was going to leave for the Star Courtyard the next day, he politely declined everyone's kindness.

When Merge walked out of the barracks, the sight in front of him pierced Merge's heart deeply.

After the first battle of this beast tide, the former eight streets and nine mo, although not prosperous but extremely lively streets and alleys, have become a miserable and desolate scene. The dilapidated building made Merge, who was in a gloomy mood instantly, sigh and sigh.

This situation made Merge feel a dull pressure in his heart, pressing on his chest, making him difficult to breathe and feeling heavy.

However, there is always a day before the streets of Blue Ear City will be restored to their original state in a few days. Although Merge was in a dull mood, he was not too disappointed, so after lamenting his weakness and powerlessness against the cruel war, Merge shook his head and continued to walk towards the alchemy hut.

Back at the Alchemy Hut, Merge tidied up the hut, took out the storage ring he had hidden in the secret compartment of his closet, and put everything he could use, including gold coins, clothing, alchemy tools, and the mysterious notes his father had given him.

Of course, the letter of recommendation that Olaire left for Merge was also included in the storage ring by him.

When night fell and it was completely dark, Merge changed into black casual clothes, took out the sharp dagger between the mezzanine of the counter, and took the round dagger badge of the Assassins Guild to the tavern alley where the Assassins Guild was located.

An hour later, Merge retrieved the remaining 50,000 gold coins from the Assassins' Society's sales and returned to the Alchemy Hut.

After locking the door to the hut, Merge lit a candle and began to tidy up the hut.

Merge covered the workbench in the Alchemy Lodge with a treated tarpaulin so that the workbench and the large precision instruments on it would not be dusty after Merge left. Because of the limited space in the storage ring, many of the larger precision alchemy instruments could not be taken with them, so Merge prepared to leave them in the alchemy hut.

After disposing of the workbench and some alchemy tools that could not be taken away, Merge put the alchemy items, magic crystals, and philosopher's stones placed on the counter into the counter. He took out the sharp dagger hidden at his waist and placed it in the storage ring.

Because before the outbreak of the beast tide, Merge put all the food reserves of the Alchemy Hut into the storage ring, and the storage ring contained an independent space, and the food stored in it would not deteriorate, so at this moment, Merge did not need to prepare the food needed for the journey to the Star Courtyard.

After preparing the items for the Star Courtyard and tidying up the alchemy hut, it was already late at night.

After cleaning up the alchemy hut, in order to gradually adapt to the slightly rusty body, Merge did several sets of exercises to restore physical fitness.

When everything was done, Merge lay on the bed on all fours, staring at the empty ceiling in a daze, and for a moment he was a little distracted.

Leaving the alchemy hut that had been with Merge for fourteen years, Merge had mixed feelings in his heart.

Excitement, joy, loss, or reluctance?

At this moment, Merge, who was about to leave for a long time, couldn't tell what it was like in his heart.

A new beginning often means saying goodbye to the old years. Ning Meng's resignation and the unknown journey that she was about to embark on made Merge feel an inexplicable depression in her heart, and she didn't know whether this depression was happy or sad.

After this night, it is about to leave the familiar alchemy hut, the familiar people and the familiar Blue Ear City. I came back again, I don't know what year and month it was.

However, the brief parting did not lead to a deep confusion in Merger. Merge was destined to leave, whether it was to find his parents, to learn about his own origins, or to become stronger, to have the ability to protect the people and things he wanted to protect.

After facing many situations on the line of life and death, especially after he struggled with Ning Meng in the death trap of the abyss troll, the deep sense of powerlessness made Merge can't wait to become stronger, strong enough to control his own destiny. Moreover, the love of alchemy also urged Merge to keep moving forward.

Blue Ear City is just the beginning of Moge's journey, and the vast world and the treacherous and vast continent are the journey and stage that Mog dreams of. Moreover, Merge was extremely curious about the various anecdotes and magical and dangerous places recorded in the mysterious notes.

And, there is an extremely important point. It was the second half of the cryptic note, which had been sealed off, and Merge had been unable to open it.

Over the years, Merge has also been trying to use various methods to open the second half of the mysterious notes that cannot be flipped through. However, it has not succeeded so far.

If the seal on the second half of the note is unlocked, it must be of great help to the mystery of Merge's background and the news of his parents, whom he has never met, and Merge has always been very sure of this.

This mysterious notebook was left by Merger's biological father, so his biological father must have had some intention in sealing the second half of the notebook so that Merge could not open it.

Merge looked at the pitch-black ceiling, his eyes becoming firm.

Tomorrow, Merge will follow the arrangement of the leader of the Taihu Sect and follow a caravan that set off from Blue Ear City to Yue Fancheng, and set off for the Star Courtyard together.

The Makuten City, where the Star Courtyard is located, is close to Yue Fancheng, and it is also the caravan that has departed from Blue Ear City in the past two days, and the destination is the closest to Makuten City. Merge went with the caravan, and his safety was more assured.

When the caravan was about to arrive at Yue Fan City, that is, after reaching the Ku Goose River, which was very close to Makuten City, Merge could leave the caravan and go to Makuten City alone, where the Star Courtyard was located.
