Chapter 453: Black Forest (2)

Leon was thinking about whether to go to the Wings of Liberty first if he went to the royal capital, and when he thought of this, he couldn't help but glance at Hillari next to him, and his eyes just touched a black span belt exposed from her ribs, which had a series of small leather sheaths from top to bottom, and a pocket dagger was neatly inserted into it.

"This is the weapon you used in battle?" Leon said with interest.

"Yes," Hilariel looked down, unshackled one of them and handed it to the other man.

The dagger was small and delicate, the blade and the grip were almost the same length, and there was a faint fluctuation under Li Ang's touch, and soon he returned the dagger to the other party, looked at the leather sheath that was still half empty, and said, "Why hasn't such an important weapon been replenished?"

"Too late," Hilariel replied, carefully inserting the dagger back in, feigned disapproval.

"Isn't it expensive?" Li Ang carefully looked at the other party's clothes, and asked very unkindly.

The head of the female guard immediately lowered, and the flush on her face could be seen from Leon's angle.

"Yes, it's very expensive...... "Hilariel said in a faint voice.

"How much?"

"More than 50 gold coins ......"

The price that Hilarily said made Leon take a nap, he knew that the price difference between the unenchanted "tabula-ras" equipment and the enchanted magic equipment was several times, but such a tabula rasa dagger was only worth a few gold coins, and after enchantment, it would increase by more than twenty times for him to be a little unimaginable.

"A handful?"

"Hmm. ”

"So expensive?"

"Already, it's already the cheapest...... "Hilarily explains, "There are very few classes like mine that specialize in throwing, so there are very few specialized weapons." There are only two shops in Chester that sell enchanted throwing daggers, and I picked the cheapest one. ”

"In the past, you were responsible for all these expenses?" asked Leon.

"Yes, yes," Hilarily said as a matter of course. "The commission already includes our equipment and supplies, so employers don't have to pay for it. ”

The young man looked at the other person's slightly plain clothes again, and remembered that she needed to support her relatives, and then understood why Hilariel was so concerned about whether she could continue the deed of entrustment.

Because this itself is a profession that consumes no less than alchemy, it is estimated that if a certain battle is more intense and longer, she will be completely at the rhythm of throwing a lot of money. It's no wonder that such a way of fighting can be rich!

"What if the weapon is lost?" Leon couldn't help but ask.

"Actually...... My archery skills are okay, and I can also fight in close quarters," Hilarily said quickly. It looks like I'm afraid that a young employer will turn it off.

Li Ang smiled, but there was a trace of bitterness in his heart, "What profession are you?"

"Actually, I used to be an archer, and I was promoted to a magic archer. But I don't know why. When I was promoted, the power directly showed the element of throwing combat skills, so now it has become a variant of the magic archer......" The female guard looked quite aggrieved as she spoke.

"It turns out that the talent is wrong...... That's really pitiful," seeing the other party's expression, Leon felt a little funny.

"Well, in the future, when you fight for me, the cost of weapons will be counted on my head. He said.

Hilarily was taken aback, "W-How can this work?" You can't go against the rules of a free mercenary!"

"I'm an employer, so now I'm in charge. ”

"But, it's going to be a lot of money......" Hilarily's voice was lowered again.

"Do you think I'm poor?"

"Of course not, but I ......"

"Okay," Li Ang said, "Needless to say, as long as you follow me, I will provide you with a stable environment and income, so that you don't have to worry about it, so that you won't be distracted and do your best for me, right?"

Hilarily was silent for a moment, then said in an urn voice, "Yes, I will." ”

After the conversation was over, the female guard quickly retreated to her original position, thinking about something as she followed the group. At this time, Fiona appeared beside Leon and said disapprovingly: "It is not easy to subdue a little girl's heart without moving. ”

The young man glared at the vampire girl, lowered his voice and said, "It's unreasonable for someone like you to always look at others with colored glasses!"

"Good momentum...... But what are the tinted glasses?" Fiona was obviously not intimidated, and asked with a grin, "Is it a new type of alchemy device?"

“...... Yes, and quite awesomely!" Leon knew that he had just said it smoothly, but he didn't want to explain it either, so he casually dealt with it.

Fiona didn't seem to pay much attention to this "quite powerful new alchemy device", she leaned on the young man's shoulder and said, "I really didn't expect you to have an alchemy master as a mentor, in fact, I will also be a little bit, and we can point each other out when we have time?"

"No time!" said Leon stiffly.

"Don't be so unsympathetic," the vampire girl's face showed the same aggrieved look as Hillarie's just now, "I risked being caught by you to tell you Sophia's traces, and I fought with a bishop for you, can't I satisfy even a small request?"

Although he knew that Fiona's appearance was definitely pretending, but after all, the other party was telling the truth, Li Ang said helplessly: "Don't pretend anymore, I promise you that it is." ”

"Not now......" Fiona said with an extremely seductive expression, "You have to promise me that if we have time, we will ...... like last time"

"What is the same as last time?" asked Leon's mind without turning for a moment, and he asked suspiciously.

"Of course we just met," said the girl, ruffling her hair, her breasts, which were almost undressed, and in a murmuring tone, "you are really strong." ”

Leon's face darkened suddenly, and he first sensed that there was no one else around him who was paying attention. Then he said viciously: "Don't even think about it!"

"Yes......" said Fiona indifferently, "that's fine, one of your little lovers, the venerable Miss Caterina, seems to be strong too." I don't care. ”

"I ...... Fuck your sister......"

At this time, Li Ang was simply stunned, could it be that this vampire was still bisexual? However, it was really possible that the two of them were satisfied with that appearance after just a while of "hand-to-hand combat" at that time......

"There is a limit to my patience," said the young man with a dark face, "I am indeed grateful that you helped me save Sophia, but if you are really unscrupulous." Then please leave immediately, and I will give you other compensation. ”

"Alas......" Fiona sighed and said softly with regret, "I may have other ways to speed up Sophia's recovery after Ben came to the Great Wasteland. But you're in such a hurry to drive me away......"

Leon's footsteps immediately paused for half a second, and then he said in a deep voice, "Shut up, Miss Fiona, I can consider acceding to your request." But please don't provoke my companions. And you're going to make sure to wake up Sophia. ”

"Of course," Sophia's mouth almost touched Leon's ear, and the breath that spewed out made the young man's cheeks itch for a while, "but what about you, a hypocritical man...... Do you really promise that you didn't react at the end of that time?"

A strange color suddenly appeared on Leon's face, but fortunately, the young man had experienced countless moments in front of the screen in his previous life, so that the thickness of his face was unusual. Soon it was back to normal.

"Ahem, alright. That's all for this topic, and this time it's a dangerous journey, so I hope you can take the initiative to protect my people when it's critical, and that shouldn't be difficult to do, right?"

"Slippery man," Fiona chuckled, "Of course, after all, they're all your people, and you're ......"

“...... Hehe," she didn't finish, and finally left the young man with an inexplicable laugh.

Leon found this woman to be a real problem.

In fact, he didn't believe Fiona's excuse for wanting to stay here before, and always felt that the other party must have other plans, but whether he came for Sophia's identity as the "Dark Girl", or what his purpose was, he couldn't confirm it for a while, and it was very likely that Fiona was also related to the mysterious old man he met before, so the young man was also full of curiosity, and decided to be false and wronged for a while, waiting for the other party to reveal his true purpose.

At this moment, his ears finally fell silent for a while, but the hunters on the periphery discovered the situation.

"The beast has appeared!"

"To the east!"

"There are also in the west!"

The shouts came one after another, and Boris, who was at the front, immediately led his men to the east, while Joseph, who was himself in the west, remained in place, waiting for the beast to come.

The rear team quickly moved closer to the center, and Cheney quickly appeared in front of Leon and said, "My lord, please rest assured, the scale of the beast is not large, and it won't take too long to dispose of it. ”

"I'm relieved," Leon said with a smile, "and it's safe here, you can go too, there are more people and unnecessary casualties can be avoided." ”

Cheney said with a hint of emotion: "Thank you for your understanding, then I'll pass." ”

This veteran freelance mercenary has been entrusted with escorts many times, and the vast majority of employers first think of the need to have the most people around them to escort them when they encounter an unexpected situation, and they will not take the situation to heart, although Leon's statement is also because he still has his own guards by his side, but being able to say this sentence has already made Cheney a little emotional.

The battle lasted about thirty minutes and was fought against dozens of brown bears, mixed with more than twenty wild boars, and two packs of hyenas. Later, according to Cheney, it is actually rare for so many beasts to appear at one time, and it is estimated that it is because the number of humans who broke into the Black Forest this time is a bit large, so the nearby beasts have to avoid it, and when they gather more and more, they will start to try to attack these humans.

Beasts like hyenas are even more cunning, and they will definitely not appear in the face of humans who are several times larger than their own, but when other beasts attack, they will definitely take advantage of the fire and rob them, hiding in the shadows to launch a sneak attack, which makes people unguardable.

However, they were facing experienced hunters, and Cheney and others knew the habits of the beasts on the edge of the Black Forest, so they almost wiped out the hyenas in battle. (To be continued......)
