Chapter 121: It's Not What It Used To Be
Old Danny looked at the visitor with some incredulity, he didn't expect that it was a young and beautiful woman who came in with a few strong men behind him!
"Hello, are you Mr. Danny?" asked Charlotte kindly.
"I am, may I ask who you are?" the surprised expression on Old Danny's face had just eased a little.
"We are the 'Cloud Splitting Sky Mercenary Group', and we want to rent a few courtyards from you!" Charlotte asked straight to the point.
"Well, that's fine, but I don't know if you have any special requirements?" asked Old Danny as usual.
"We don't have any special requirements, we just want a wider courtyard, and there are about three hundred and twenty of us!" said Charlotte, still tepidly.
Old Danny thought for a moment, and after a moment of silence, said, "Well, I'll recommend you a few courtyards next to each other." ”
So old Danny briefly explained the general situation of the recommended courtyards to Charlotte. Charlotte thought about it for a while, and felt that the price was quite reasonable, so she hurriedly said: "Mr. Danny, I don't have any opinion on these courtyards you recommend, but I want to see the specific appearance first, don't you mind?"
"Naturally!" said old Danny with a smile, "I'll have someone take you." ”
"Don't bother with this, we can find it ourselves!" Charlotte politely declined.
The reason why she didn't accept Old Danny's kindness was because she was afraid that she would change her mind temporarily, and whether she wanted to rent those courtyards or not would have to look at them before making a final decision.
Old Danny didn't say anything after hearing this, he still wished that every customer would be like this!
"Mr. Danny, may I ask you another question?" said Charlotte.
"Tell me!"
"Do you have a mercenary group here called the 'Double Axe Mercenary Group'?" a strange glint flashed in Charlotte's eyes.
"Yes, we do have a 'Twin Axe Mercenary Group' in Gollum City!" Old Danny didn't think it was a problem, so he answered truthfully.
After Old Danny answered this sentence, it was obvious that Zeny and the others behind Charlotte had a happy face and looked at each other.
"Do you know where they are now?" asked Charlotte again.
"I can't say that!" old Danny smiled awkwardly, he wasn't interested in mercenary groups, so he didn't know much.
A hint of disappointment flashed in Charlotte's eyes, but although he couldn't find out the specific location of the "Double Axe Mercenary Group", he knew that they were in this "Gollum City".
As the saying goes, monks can't run the temple if they can run, as long as they are in this town, Charlotte has the confidence to find them......
"Brother Solomon, what exactly is this 'Cloud Splitting Sky Mercenary Group', why are you so surprised?" asked Laurent, puzzled.
"Do you really don't know or don't you know?" said Solomon, who was even more surprised than Laurent.
"I've never been far away, I only know about our 'Gollum City', and I just ask my sister a few words about the outside world. ”
"Let me tell you, although this 'Cloud Splitting Sky Mercenary Regiment' is not among the top few in strength among the many mercenary groups in our Winter Moon Empire, their reputation is not small!" said Solomon a little speechless.
"Why is that?" said Laurent.
"First of all, the first reason is their leader, you know, their head may be the woman who just went in. I haven't seen it, but I've heard rumors about her!"
"What rumors?"
"Their leader is extremely powerful, and it is said that no one has ever seen her true strength!"
Laurent looked at Solomon incredulously, and while questioning this sentence, a strange thought came to his mind: if this regimental leader was to fight with the little girl who beat him, who would be more powerful?
Seeing Laurent's stunned expression, Solomon thought that he believed it, so he hurriedly explained: "This is also hearsay, and I don't know if someone has added fuel and vinegar!"
The two chatted a few more words, and then they started talking again.
Just when the two of them were in the realm of selflessness, someone they didn't expect appeared. It's none other than Zhong Shenxiu!
"It seems that we came at the right time, I didn't expect to start warming up in advance!" Zhong Shenxiu looked at the two Laurent who came and went in the courtyard, and said with a smile.
For Zhong Shenxiu's unique voice, both of them will be awakened in their dreams. Now when I heard it, I was startled, and they jumped out of the circle separately and began to look at the source of the sound.
At a glance, both of them were stunned.
"Why don't you fight, go on!" Zhong Shenxiu actually opened his mouth to encourage.
"You...... What are you doing here?" asked Laurent, a little nervous. Last time he was injured, neither he nor his sister told their father the truth, and if Zhong Shenxiu attacked them again this time, it would definitely alarm the father in the house.
"Can't I come if I'm fine, I remember that your father seems to welcome me very much!" Zhong Shenxiu showed a smug smile on his face, and his expression seemed to say: Xiaowa, I am a guest invited by your old son!
Laurent was choked speechless, and Solomon on the side chose to be silent because he couldn't figure out the situation!
"Boy, I'll let you talk to Angelia, you won't have an opinion, right?" Although Zhong Shenxiu used a questioning tone on his mouth, his expression was clearly an irrefutable affirmation, and the expression was obviously saying: Boy, you dare to say the word "no" to try!
He now knows very well that his strength has grown a little in the past few days, but he is far from being able to compete with Robin, and he is undoubtedly looking for K to compete with Robin!
At Zhong Shenxiu's signal, Angelia walked over and looked straight at Laurent. Her mood right now is half nervous, half expectant!
Laurent hesitated and felt that it was a very risky thing to disobey Zhong Shenxiu, so she also walked out. However, instead of looking at Angelia, his eyes looked at Zhong Shenxiu and Robin warily.
Zhong Shenxiu seemed to guess what he meant, and in order to let him play normally, he hurriedly said: "Boy, don't worry, this time only you and Angelia will fight, and Robin and I will not interfere!"
Although it is uncertain whether Chung Shenxiu's words are credible, Laurent can only believe it now.
"Angelia, let's talk about it in advance, and we'll get to it!"
Angelia nodded, she wasn't going to wrestle with Laurent.
"Alright, don't waste time, you guys start!" Zhong Shenxiu began to urge.
Just as Angelia and Laurent were about to start fighting, Charlotte and several of her men came out at this time.
Of course, they also immediately spotted Angelia and Laurent in the field.
"Hey, what's the change this time?" said Zeni in surprise.
"Who is this girl?" Hank was concerned about the topic.
Since Angelia was facing away from Charlotte, neither side recognized anyone.
At this time, Angelia and Laurent had reached the moment of tension, and the two were not distracted by Charlotte's appearance.
With a "whoosh", Angelia took the lead in attacking.
She's fast, at least much faster than she used to be.
With a "clang", the swords of the two touched together, and there seemed to be sparks.
This is just a temptation for Angelia, and after fighting Laurent several times, she knows that the person in front of her is not an ordinary person, and she must be cautious about it!
This alone can be seen that Angelia has changed, if it was before, she would definitely use all her strength on this sword, and then find a new opportunity in the opponent's parry.
Angelia had begun to learn to attack with her brain, and she hadn't realized it yet.
Although it was only a tentative sword, Laurent still frowned. From this sword, he felt that Angelia was much stronger than before in terms of strength and speed.
"Huh" Laurent swung a sword.
He knows Angelia well, and the best way to stop her stormy attack is to attack himself!
As the saying goes: the strongest defense is offense, and Laurent knows this deeply.
However, he didn't know that Angelia at this time was no longer what it used to be, and under the torture of Zhong Shenxiu (let's use this word first), she had already completed a transformation. At this time, when he saw the long sword attacking, he didn't block, but twisted his belt and chose to dodge.
Of course, she didn't just dodge, the moment she turned around, she swung her backhand sword, from the bottom up, straight to Laurent's face.
Laurent obviously didn't expect Angelia to choose to dodge her sword, let alone be able to swing such a tricky sword when she turned around, and was caught off guard in shock, although it was able to block this sword, it made him break out in a cold sweat!
Speaking of Angelia at this time, she suddenly had a mysterious feeling, she was able to capture Laurent's movements clearly. What the hell is going on? Why do I feel like he's moving slower than he used to?
And what surprised Angelia the most was that she felt that she could win this time, and she had never been so determined as she was now!
Angelia didn't give Laurent a chance to breathe, and a move Tarzan pressed the top and cut it out from top to bottom!
Laurent didn't dare to dodge rashly, and the long sword was about to block Angelia's move, but he didn't notice that the sword that Angelia swung out was shining with light!
Just because he didn't find out doesn't mean others won't find out!
Charlotte had already noticed the strangeness and frowned, but what really surprised her was the next scene......
