It is said that it is divided into two chapters and can be clicked more......

But I really don't like that kind of deception......

――

...... When the four eyes met, a small figure slipped out from behind the pillars.

It was true that he had slipped out, because his short body was only half that of an ordinary person. A little sloppy, but surprisingly fast, as if he was already standing at the table in the blink of an eye......

His body, which was just over two feet, made a gray cloth cloak so large that it almost dragged to the ground, and the hood was swept back to his head, revealing a mess of hair, with a bit of comic - although at first glance one would think that it was a child, the long sideburns and ruddy face, and the hairy paws of his feet under the cloak, made it possible to judge his identity.

A halfling.

It is only this kind of intelligent race, which is accustomed to mixing with human beings, to make such uninvited actions, because they have never known what fear and embarrassment are.

"Hahaha...... Don't worry, it's just a little joke, yes, it's just an unreliable legend...... Oh, it's rude, I haven't introduced you yet, I'm Jack, and the people here call me Jack the Moppy, don't look at me with such strange eyes, everyone, I'm just a farmer living in this town

Spouting out a bunch of nonsense in a rapping voice, the little man deftly jumped onto the chair next to him, and performed a funny etiquette like a third-rate harlequin, laughing all over his face, chattering: "Oh, of course, what else could it be? My father was a farmer, and his father and his father's father were farmers, so I should be the ...... too" But you probably know that in this world, life is difficult, and it is difficult to make ends meet on crops alone, so we honest farmers have to find some extra money within our means......

But apparently, he ignored whether a few people here wanted and welcomed him to do so.

"If you want to find an accomplice, go down there...... We're just passing through here, and we're not interested in your tricks, or your legends. The knight named Jude frowned.

Anyone with some experience will not believe such a statement - halflings are opportunists with good ability, cunning and witty fellows, although some reliable and industrious residents, there are also thieves who wait for an opportunity to get a vote and run, and they are known to have a disposition that would rather cause trouble than boredom, and a strong curiosity, and a disposition that does not know what danger is. So, not everyone likes them, especially this guy with a pair of sparkling eyes on his face, as if he is thinking about some ghost idea all the time.

Moreover, the light approach, the slight signs of sword and wear on the tattered leather armor under the cloak, proved that he was not a peasant, but a seasoned wanderer—another name for thieves and rascals.

"Accomplice? No, no, no, you're probably mistaken. ”

The unceremonious words almost drove away, but the little man's smile did not decrease, and he naturally did not move half a step under his feet: "I am just a useless little person, I have no ability, and I do not want to enter the forest area for sightseeing, so I have to provide some useful information here to my friends who are new to the city like you...... Of course, with your talents, it won't be particularly difficult to traverse the entire Whispering Forest, but I'm sure you're not the kind of person who simply wants to take risks. It's not a boast, the information provided by my Jack has been verified by all cave bears, and the quality is guaranteed. I want to capture rare magical beasts, I can provide the haunt of eighty percent of the valuable magical beasts in the forest, and I want to dig up the best minerals, Adamantite, Mithril, Black Iron or Ruby Sapphire, I know a little bit about crystal ore veins...... All in all, I can promise to make your adventure easier and more colorful. ”

"We don't need it either. ”

"Ah, lords, please don't try to perfunctory Jack, it's so sad, especially for something so obvious. The halfling laughed and shook his head: "Why hide it......? Tsk, although thanks to the blessing of Viscount James, this is also a good place in Xifengyi, but if you don't want to enter the Whispering Forest, there are a few people who are used to Luo Dan or full of real people who will turn to this poor country?...... Well, then, if you are not short of money, I may try to find a few of the famous Cave Bears, all veterans who have been to the forest many times, and who have drawn maps of the vicinity—"

The crunchy nagging came to an abrupt halt......

An iron glove had suddenly grasped the thin shoulders of the halfling, and then the white luster flashed, and the water waves surrounded him!

"You...... No, no, Your Excellency, Your Excellency...... It turned out to be a paladin?"

The flush on the halfling's face vanished for the most part, but he quickly calmed down—though as a defender of order and the embodiment of justice. The holy warriors had the right to kill and decide on a certain kind of chengdù, but their principle was to protect the good and fight the evil...... And what was reflected by the divine magic on his body at the moment was slightly glowing with blue.

This means that he has at least not done anything to commit adultery, which is guaranteed by the power of God.

"Listen to what he has to say. On the other side, the female mage in the black robe suddenly spoke, she raised her sleeve robe, and a glittering gadget fell on the table.

So the halfling, who called himself Jack, immediately had some straight eyes.

It was no ordinary coin, it shone white, but different from the luster of silver coins - white gold, a currency worth ten times as much as a gold coin. In most areas of the Western Feudal Land, its ability to redeem huàn is more than half of it...... The halfling lowered his head respectfully and licked the corners of his mouth involuntarily, but his gaze was completely fixed on the gadget.

"Okay, okay, whatever you're interested in, I, Jack, know everything......"

"So, why are there so many people here?"

"The Whispering Forest was originally a gathering place for magical beasts, and although it was a little dangerous, the things produced could always be exchanged for a lot of gold in the hands of those magicians and fur merchants...... Naturally, the cave bears gather more and more......"

"It's not like it's true. ”

"No, no, for the sake of magic, I'm not lying. ”

“...... Partially hidden. ”

"That's all I know...... Okay, okay, I said that's it. The halfling's shrill voice was as fast as a fried bean—the caster clearly didn't like his nonsense, and the platinum coin had moved on its own, getting farther and farther away from him.

"It is said that there are silver veins in the open air in the forest, and some people have seen it, and some have even made a fortune from it...... So in recent times, many people who have come here have dreamed of making a fortune. Everybody says it's a no-brainer, but as you can see, there's always someone who would rather believe it...... And it's getting worse and worse. From silver mines, gold mines, and now there are people talking about Mithril and Adamantite ......"

"Open-pit mines?" there was some fluctuation in the voice of the young paladin—not friendly: "The ownership of the metal ore should belong to the kingdom, to the king's majesty, how can it be mined without permission?"

"Sir, no one uses the word mining here...... It's just digging, or picking it up......" Jack held out a finger and shook it: "And, of course, that's the legend of a few people after all, and most people go home empty-handed...... But as you know, only a handful of success stories are you...... What's more, those who have made a fortune haven't gotten anything, and the Whispering Forest is mysterious. No one ever found a vein they had ever seen, never. And the money they got was also thrown on the gambling table, and in the blink of an eye, it was all lost. ”

"Easy to come, fast to go...... This has always been the case for these scoundrels. The paladin snorted.

"And, of course...... And ......" The halfling watched happily as the white gold coin slowly approached him, and quickly reached out to catch it, but at this moment his voice seemed to be suddenly dull - a beautiful purple light flashed on the coin, although it disappeared without a trace.

But when he spoke again, his voice was no longer full of that oily tone.

"It's just on the surface, but as far as I know...... Well, these seem to be rumors spread by Edward. In fact, there may not be any minerals at all, just a means to attract adventurers?"

He swallowed his saliva and carefully glanced around. He lowered his voice, as if he was no longer facing a group of strangers, but his companions who had been with him for many years: "You know, the more adventurers there are, the more good things you can get out of the Whispering Forest, and they can also lower the price of good things...... The more people, the more Poplar Town earns, and with gold coins, it can naturally attract those merchants, and when there are more merchants, the magic beasts, herbs, and alchemy raw materials in the forest can naturally be sold for a price...... Do you see the big road outside? It was expanded by the merchants for free, and it didn't cost the Viscount a penny?"

"Who is this Edward?"

"I don't know who Edward is, let me tell you, it's hard for you to get around here?"

The halfling unceremoniously gave the knight who asked the question a roll of the eyes, and then spat out a string of titles: "Well, since you have asked sincerely, I will tell you mercifully...... Edward is the owner of this Hilton Tavern, oh, should be the owner of the Express Hotel, the son of the town's blacksmith Old York, the son of our Viscount James, the advisor to James Jr., and the deputy chief of the guard in Poplar Town...... One of the best cave bears around the Whispering Forest, and besides, you may not be able to tell that this guy is also the most shady of the cave bears around the Whispering Forest...... Huh?"

There was a commotion outside the window that caused the halfling to suddenly stop his chatter, and after glancing, he jumped excitedly to the table next to him...... Cast his gaze out the window: "Oh, here it is, that idiot!"

――――――――

The slight angle of the hillside allowed the second-floor window of the Hilton Hotel to lightly notice what was going on near the town gate—in the dust, a procession had approached the town.

It seems to be the most common merchant in the land of Xifengyi.

In the land of Xifengyi, it is quite dangerous to do business, bandits, robbers, bad road conditions...... Even if the goods on the roads of the wilderness could be sold for several times more than in the inland, they would not necessarily make the merchants work - the slightest negligence could cost them their lives.

Therefore, ordinary merchants would gather into horse teams and hire guards in teams.

The one in front of him was no exception—more than twenty wooden carts were dragged by horses, loaded with goods covered with felt cloth, and thirty or so riders followed on either side of the cart, and heavily armed mercenaries patrolled the surroundings vigilantly...... The long journey left them wrapped in a layer of dust. It looks like a bit of a wolf bèi.

But is a caravan worth so exciting?

The halfling's intently staring out the window made the middle-aged knight frown. But before he could speak, there was a sudden commotion outside—outside the gate, the convoy suddenly accelerated, and rushed towards the town gate!

"Enemy attack! It's a bandit group! They are a bandit group! Close the door, ...... quickly"

The exclamations of the wooden walls were terrible, and the two doors creaked and closed inward amid the roar and commotion...... However, it seems that it is too late.

More than a dozen horse-drawn carts and the felt cloth on the carts each "conjured" a dozen people, plus the guys who were originally around the convoy, the number of people reached about 100 in an instant. I saw that these people who suddenly appeared quickly divided into two groups, one side pushed the cart in front of them forward, stubble it in the door hole and squeezed the city gate, and the rest overturned the cart behind to form a temporary bunker, and then with the sound of the bowstring, the two guards holding longbows on the city tower fell down screaming!

But in the blink of an eye, the gates had changed hands.

......

"Damn bandits!"

The paladin jerked to his feet and drew the sword beside him, and the white luster instantly illuminated the surroundings.

However, just like Ying and his movements, the sound of metal grinding in the hotel has come and gone.

"Guys, we're from the Crow Mercenary Regiment, and we're going to do something here today, so you'd better get acquainted with each other...... Stay there obediently. ”

On a few tables against the gate, a dozen or so big men stood up, each wielding his weapon and making a threatening gesture, and it was one of them who was particularly tall and bald: "I know that you are all first-class players, and I have no interest in making enemies with you, so as long as you continue to rest here, we promise that we will not embarrass you." ”

"It won't delay you for a long time, it's just a meal, and when it's done, everyone here will receive five gold coins as a reward, so please be at ease...... Well, in short, it's just a quiet look at the excitement, and it will be over soon. He pulled the male duck's throat and roared triumphantly.

He was answered by a sharp chirp.

The sound was like tearing rags, short and terrifying! Just when the bald man's body stiffened slightly, the four or five companions beside him had already let out a muffled snort!

Their bodies flew backwards as if they had been hit by a sledgehammer, and they ping-pong knocked over several tables!

And then there was the heart-rending screams.

In the midst of this scream, the bald man couldn't help but retreat again and again, he didn't seem to be injured, but he noticed that several of his subordinates had piled up in strange shapes in the corner of the wall!

More than a dozen arrows were driven deep into their bodies, and the four unfortunate ghosts who had been shot in the chest and throat hung their heads silently, and the deep penetrating crossbow arrows had already made them breathe with joy. Compared to them, the other three who had been impaled through the chest and abdomen were far less lucky—as they rolled and struggled to die, the crimson blood spilled outward with their movements, filling the air with a disgusting smell of rust.

The result was a dozen heavily armed mercenaries, who were putting down their heavy bows and crossbows and drawing their long swords, staring at the members of the so-called Black Crow Mercenary Regiment, which had suddenly decreased to four in front of them.

At this time, among the mercenaries who were retreating behind them, there was a burst of snickering, followed by a rampage.

"I said it a long time ago...... As I said ten days ago, this Crow Regiment is not a particularly outstanding product at all, and after gathering a few idiots, I'm afraid it will be the idea of Poplar Town...... Look, I'm expecting it, right?"

"Sure enough, it's an idiot! I don't even think about it, if this town can be taken so easily, Lao Tzu...... How could the people in front of them save it for this day? and only those fools who don't know well would think of it...... Alas, they also don't know......"

"Don't change the subject, bastard! Last time we gambled five gold coins, within three months, the crow disappeared, and now I win, you don't want to pay the bill, do you?

"So long thing...... Besides, they just came in, and there are still more fights, and they still have more than a hundred numbers outside. ”

......

Is this a dream? is it a joke? or is it ......

The facts are brutal and dramatically shocking. Leaving the remnants of the robbers a little sluggish, they staggered back in a daze, until a peaceful voice sounded nearby.

"Honestly, surrender obediently, gentlemen. ”

The owner of the voice, the young waitress of the hotel, was standing in front of them. He looked at them with pity: "Although the crime of a robber will make you serve a long period of hard labor, it is better than losing your life. ”

What is this? Surrender? Are you a fool? We have more than a hundred brothers outside! As long as I escape......

The mind finally struggled out of that terrible truth...... In his eyes, this guy was simply a hostage sent to the door - the city guards may not be pinned, but they may be able to use him as a shield to fight for a chance, as long as they escape the gate, the street is their own......

The thought swirled in his mind for only a split second before it was interrupted.

Genuine 'beating' interrupt.

A sour numbness from his jaw made the scene in front of him suddenly dark!

It seemed like a swarm of mosquitoes and flies suddenly burrowed into the ears, and then the mosquitoes and flies turned into the sound of horns and cymbals. It wasn't until it was long before he felt something else - a thump as if his body had hit something, and then a feeling of dizziness hit him......

"Jaw...... It hurts......" he thought before losing consciousness.

However, in the eyes of the people around him, this qiē was actually very short-lived...... The leader of the robbers, who rushed like a wild boar, swooped out with a muffled thud, and the emaciated young attendant only raised his fist.

"Warrior monk?" said the holy warrior on the second floor.

The most striking feature of the so-called warrior monks, who are few in number but are all particularly strong, is that they do not rely on weapons and armor to arm themselves, but rather train themselves into a weapon - legend has it that their palms are as tough as iron, and can be used to block weapons and even pierce armor, causing astonishing damage.

"No, it's not...... Although it is somewhat similar, however, the monks do not use weapons. ”

Along with the spellcaster, several people had already shifted their attention to the battlefield.

The little abyssal wasp is only the size of a finger, but the stinger is enough to bring down a big bear, and the majesty of the legion ants makes even the saber-toothed tiger shy away...... Strength cannot be judged by appearance, and adventurers who have really experienced the world understand it deeply. But at this moment, the young man's expression was obviously still beyond their expectations.

And at this time, follow behind the leader. The same two guys have already flown out one after another.

One took a leg sweep in the run, while the other also received a punch, but he was even more unlucky than their leader - the punch that followed the leg sweep and swung up from the bottom up was so powerful that even in the midst of the noise, the crisp cracking sound of the impact reached most people's ears.

It was almost like a blunt blow.

Of the three strong men, two of them had lost consciousness in pain, while the remaining one shook as if he had drunk a strong drink, and no matter how hard he struggled, he seemed unable to stand up......

So their opponents began to unceremoniously reap the fruits of victory...... He stepped on the poor fellow, who was still conscious, and pulled a necklace off his neck. Then there are the money bags and bits and pieces on the fingers.

The slowing down also made the strange metal objects on his hands stand out.

It was like a ring that had been widened and thickened many times, and it had been fused together, wrapping all four fingers of his right hand together, a bit like the dull appearance of protective gear, inconspicuous compared to those shiny swords...... However, it is undoubtedly a weapon. A vicious weapon, the part that protects the finger, is stained with blood from several cone-shaped blunt thorns, which makes people's hearts tingle at the sight of it, and involuntarily simulates the pain of being hit by this metal, tearing the skin and crushing the bones.

As a result, the metal components that were not large had a hideous feeling, not inferior to any sword.

In fact, it was not only this weapon that was vicious, but the eyes of the knights allowed them to notice the other weapon on the boy's feet—the kick that knocked a big man down in a single turn was not because of how powerful it was, but because the half-worn boots on his feet had a strange bloat, and the clarity of the blow that burst when he made up the forehead of the unfortunate man who was not yet unconscious was enough to show that it was inside, at least a piece of metal.

Of course, some, such as young paladins, can see more in the eyes of them...... The young man's neck and wrist exuded a faint aura of magic, not strong, just low-level acceleration and the brute force of the ox - but some experienced people know very well that the level of magic does not mean that there is a difference between strength and weakness - for example, these two two- and three-ring spells are extremely practical, and the superimposed effect is enough for an ordinary farmer to fight an ordinary warrior.

"These idiots don't know how to write dead words! I thought they wouldn't come...... With this little bit of people, it is a dream to want to capture Poplar Town!" The halfling spun around on the stool, excitedly as if all the qiē was his credit: "Idiot to death!"

After muttering a long series in a row, he remembered something and patted his head,

"Oh yes, I haven't finished my sentence yet...... You don't know who Edward is, right, that's it. ”

The little man made a funny gesture of introduction, directing the eyes of several people to the young figure,

"That's Edward, the King of Hunters in Poplar Town, Edward the Golden Hunter, and Edward Vincent. ”

I thought about it. He muttered again.

"However, he is generally known as Edward the Skinner. ”
