Chapter 3: The Killer

The swamp at night, the smell of blood emitted by corpses would soon attract all the poisonous insects and beasts nearby, so after killing people, Jude shouted everyone and continued on his way.

Looking at the two corpses on the ground and Jude with a blank face, the mercenaries had different expressions.

Although Jude didn't explain what had just happened, in connection with what happened during the day, it was easy for everyone to make up the story of the little mercenary and his partner who held a grudge after being humiliated, and wanted to sneak up to take revenge while Jude was asleep, but were killed by Jude and his big black dog.

Most people did not feel any grief at the deaths of the two men.

They were a rabble, and they joined the expedition team for the generous reward offered by the Arias family, and they had little friendship with each other.

Besides, the big guys are not good people, and there is nothing to regret when they die, the only thing that surprised them a little was Jude's strength.

Although he had the ferocious-looking Hound to help, he was one against two after all, not to mention being attacked while sleeping, but he was still able to react at the first time, and dealt with the little mercenary and his partner, without even waking up the others.

This shows that the whole battle ended quickly, and there was an insurmountable gap in the strength of the two sides.

If there were still people who wondered how this guy who always had a stinky face and didn't look very gregarious became the leader of the expedition team, no one has such doubts anymore.

The mercenary is such a simple creature, whoever has the biggest fist will listen to whomever he wants.

Everyone silently packed up their things and took advantage of the night to go on the road again.

With the exception of Jude and the three lizardmen, no one knew what they were looking for in this swamp of decay and death.

Anyway, every day is pretty much the same, no ale mixed with water by the tavernkeeper, no steaming roast pies, let alone beautiful women with big breasts......

Before dawn, I would be woken up by mosquitoes, get up from the tree, rub my old waist with a faint pain, and sprinkle a soak of urine on the puddle next to me to empty the inventory at night.

After that, I took two bites of bread that had been hard like a stone, put the boots back on my feet that had been lying all night, and continued on the road.

These dull days lasted until the sixteenth day.

Jude opened his eyes, peed and nibbled on bread as usual, only to see the four mercenaries walking towards him with anxious expressions.

Jude was a little impatient, and before they could get closer, he said, "I've said it many times, we'll be back to Green Field in two days, and those who want to get out of here can do it themselves, but don't think about the rest of the commission." ”

"We're not here to urge you to turn around," said one of the orc mercenaries with only one eye, "Old George is gone. ”

"Who?"

"Old George, thief old George, the old man who has half his teeth missing, likes to do magic with silver coins."

"I'm a little impressed." Jude said, "Did he, an old man like this generally takes longer to relieve himself than a young man." ”

"I'm afraid not. The night stalker was the first of us to wake up, and he said George Sr. was gone. The mercenary who spoke pointed to a young mercenary with pointed ears and obvious elven blood.

"How long has he been gone?" Jude asked the night stalker.

The latter said, "I woke up at dawn." After a pause, he closed his eyes again and said with a solemn expression, "I can feel an evil force lurking in the forest. ”

"You can feel a fart," Jude interrupted him unceremoniously, sneering, "Elves are supposedly able to communicate with nature, and listening to the whispers of the plants around them is a fucking lie, just like women say that they love your people, not your money, and those who believe are fools." ”

"How do you know that elves don't have this ability, and you're not an elf." There are dissenting opinions.

Jude glanced at the man, "Because I slaughtered a group of elves, relied on my own traps, and sneaked up behind trees, I guess those elves may have just arrived in the West, and they haven't been able to get along with the trees here." ”

“…………”

"But it looks like our poor old George won't come back." A chill flashed in Jude's eyes, "Go and get everyone together, I have something to say." ”

In a short time, the members of the dragon hunting team were all assembled.

Jude looked around and found that all the outsiders except for the three lizardmen guides and the missing old George had arrived, and he didn't talk nonsense, he directly pulled out the axe on his waist and said, "The reason why you are here is because you have accepted the employment of the Arias family, and I am certainly no exception.

"Although the Arias family pays me a little differently than you do, it doesn't matter, the point is...... Now that you've accepted the job, you'd better just fucking give me a good job and put the rest of the matter aside.

"I don't care if you have any previous grudges, but if someone makes small moves again and again under my nose, and uses this expedition to announce a personal vendetta, don't blame me for being unkind to him."

"The Sword Comes"

The amount of information in Jude's words was undoubtedly very large, and the mercenaries had to take some time to digest it, and then they couldn't help but look at each other.

Jude didn't give them much time to think, and walked up to a male mercenary in a gray cloak with an axe.

The latter's expression tightened, but he quickly regained his composure and said to Jude, "You've found the wrong person." ”

"yes, I don't think so." Jude sneered, "On the third day we entered the swamp, you were the unlucky ghost who was bitten to death by a poisonous snake in our sleep that night." Being bitten by a viper is very painful, and it is impossible to die quietly. ”

The face of the male mercenary in the gray cloak finally changed this time.

"You're a killer?" Jude continued.

The male mercenary didn't answer, but his silence undoubtedly confirmed his identity.

"I didn't want to care about this, the guy who died was a rotten person anyway, but you shouldn't do it again, friend, I gave you a chance."

"Wait, I did kill Shi Dun, but Old George's disappearance has nothing to do with me." The male mercenary felt Jude's killing intent, and he was also a little panicked, "I'm a member of the mutual aid society, you can't kill ......"

Before he finished his words, the next moment his head was already flying!

"I don't care which side of you are, just remember not to appear in front of me again in the next life." Jude threw the killer's head aside, and then said to the four mercenaries who came to him before, "What are you doing in a daze, the problem has been solved, why should you go?" ”

However, as soon as his words fell, the black beauty on the side suddenly began to scream.
