"You say that I am standing here to confirm some doubts in your mind, and I want to know, what are the doubts. Karis's face in the darkness was blurred, except for the red scar on his face, which was distinct in the dim moonlight. He looked at Curry, and the strange feeling made the smile on the corner of Curry's mouth change.

"The one who secretly watched my morning exercise in the morning was you. Curry's dark blue pupils swept over Karis, "That night...... The third special breath of life I feel besides me and Rutt is you, and I don't know what has happened to you in the small town of Totnes, whether it was any adventure or something else, but ......"

"But what. ”

“...... It's nothing. Curry smiled and shook his head, "It's useless to say." Don't talk about me, let's talk about you, you appeared in front of me, won't you just come to say goodbye. ”

"Almost. ”

"What?" said Curry with a slight smile.

Karis looked at Curry without any change in his gaze: "I have to admit that you are very smart, but you are not absolutely smart enough. Although you can tell from me standing here that I have questions, but you don't know that these questions of mine have been answered since just now, and now ...... I only have one last small question. ”

Looking at Karis, Curry's dark blue eyes flashed slightly: "I seem to know where I made a mistake." It seems that in this world, if you want to be a smart person, you should never think that you are the smartest. ”

"Who knows, maybe in the eyes of the really smart, we're all just stupid. Karis's voice was slightly hoarse, and his calm gaze swept over the bright moon in the sky.

"You said you had one last little question, and I was curious what it was. ”

"Simple, why are you leaving?" Karis retracted his gaze to look at Curry, who looked like a statue in the moonlight, and he didn't feel any breath.

"Chance encounters, beautiful encounters, heroes descend from the sky to save beautiful women at the moment of danger, and paint a wonderful and poetic picture in the hazy moonlight...... Everything was perfect, as if fate had arranged it, wasn't it?"

“...... That's your last question?" Curry shook his head and smiled, "What a surprise. ”

"yes, it's not like me. Once again, Caris casually looked up at the starry sky, his eyes motionless.

Ke Rui also raised his head, looking at this familiar and unfamiliar scenery, his eyes flashed slightly:

"Everyone's destiny is different, and it is a journey with no end in sight for us traveling merchants. Just as a necromancer who uses death to realize life will see different forms of life and have different perceptions, the lone wolf walking under the moonlit night will not be tempted by the warm sunlight a second time, and my fur is the thickest when it comes to resistance to the cold wind. ”

Curry turned his head to look at Karis, and suddenly there was a hint of wolf-like sharpness in his eyes:

"And...... To be honest, I don't believe in fate. ”

Looking at Curry at this moment, Karis's eyes suddenly froze slightly, as if he had found something else.

"I'm leaving. Curry turned around, grabbed the rope from the old dragon, and flipped onto the dragon's back with a single force.

"You're strong. ”

With his back to Curry, Karis said suddenly with his eyes closed. Ke Rui was slightly shocked, did not speak, and continued to walk into the distance.

......

The cold night breeze blew through Karis's clothes, and made the distant back under the moonlit night even more distant, gradually blurring and disappearing.

"I don't believe in fate either, but I have reasons to believe now. ”

Long after Curry left, Karis looked at the beautiful starry sky and suddenly let out a long sigh. At this moment, this mysterious young master, who is always as silent as a sculpture, showed a deeper sense of vicissitudes than Ke Rui.

And behind him, the whole world silently turned into a vast and desolate background at this time.

......

The Mercenary Alliance is located in the southwest of the Terran region, covering a vast area, with a large population in the territory, and more than half of them are mercenaries. Those who are familiar with the history of the alliance know that when the mercenary alliance was not yet formed, this area was the most concentrated and active place for mercenaries.

It is bordered by the most chaotic and disorderly land of the human race in the north, the "Elven Forest" of the elven country across the western border in the west, the long-term war with the orcs in the south, and a branch of the "St. Gurus Mountains", the largest mountain range on the continent, in the east.

It is not a suitable place for ordinary people who want to live and work in peace. But for the mercenaries who take money to do things and accompany blood and wine all day long, this is a godsend!

One hundred and fifty years ago, the three mercenary kings rose to prominence and led tens of millions of mercenaries to start a thirty-year war of independence, and finally snatched this land from the Holy Alliance and the Oskar Empire. From then on, the territory of the Terrans, west of the St. Gurus Mountains in the southwest region to the Elven Forest, south of the Discord Lands to the Orc Wasteland, and a small piece of land to the east of the mountain range, had a new name:

Mercenary Alliance.

In addition to its own strength and general trend, the reason why the Mercenary Alliance was established here to withstand the pressure of the other four major forces is that it once promised the entire Terran that it would ensure the safety of all the human borders here. And the subsequent war with the orcs in recent years also proved this, and it also proved the strong strength of the mercenary alliance from the side.

The territory of the Mercenary Alliance, which Curry entered from the Holy Alliance and crossed the Ace Prairie to the west, belonged to the small area east of the St. Gurus Mountains of the Mercenary Alliance. The reason why the Mercenary Alliance made great efforts to build this small area on the east side of the St. Gules Mountains was mainly for security reasons, in order to prevent the emergence of this situation where "everyone has crossed the St. Gulles Mountains and hit the doorstep before they find out".

Although this place is very small compared to the vast hinterland of the alliance to the west of the mountain range, it is a region with a special status. Not only has it become one of the most prosperous areas of the Mercenary Alliance because it borders the Oskar Empire and the Holy Alliance, but it is also home to the Abyss Mercenary Group led by the Giant Whale King Lansar, one of the three mercenary kings, and it is a very prestigious "golden region" for the entire human race.

And the center of this golden region is the destination of Curry's trip - the fantastic giant city, "Tagus!"

......

"It's been more than four months, and it's finally catching up. Curry sat on the back of the old dragon, looked at the distant destination, and exhaled a long breath.

Every year at the beginning of March, there is a peak trading season on Sherman's Street in Tagus City, and every time at this time, Curry will calculate the time to get ready to come here, after all, for a businessman, such a thing is very much equal to profit.

"Let's go, Lombard. Patting the neck of the old dragon, Curry pointed ahead.

But at this moment, Ke Rui's face suddenly changed, his right hand grabbed the arm of his left hand, fine beads of sweat instantly oozing from his forehead, his breathing suddenly became slightly short, and even the perennial slight smile on the corner of his mouth disappeared at this time, and the whole person directly curled up and fell on the back of the old earth Xinglong, but he couldn't make any sound.

......

...... "You're strong. ”......

......

Slowly opening his eyes, Curry looked at the blue sky, and the last words of Karis when he left rang in his ears, and a wry smile suddenly appeared on the corner of his mouth:

"I'm ...... Are you strong?"

Raising his left arm, he saw that on Ke Ruiguang's pale skin, several purple-black thin lines were slowly retracting and gradually disappearing.

And the direction they retracted was Curry's chest.
