The hostess at the inn was the daughter of the hostess.

When the twelve- or thirteen-year-old brought the food.

Lindsay sat for a while, swapped out her drink, picked up her plate and moved silently.

There are a lot of adventurers walking around the inn, and this behavior is unremarkable.

Lindsey approached the group of men and women who were discussing.

He didn't even need to speak, and after a while, he was naturally integrated into the atmosphere of the discussion.

Lindsay on the next table.

A middle-aged man with a beard on his face smiled proudly at the moment, and waved the wooden wine glass in his hand with a very exaggerated movement:

"Hey, hey, hey! What I heard was different! ”

"Folz in the north of the city seems to have something to do with it, and he hasn't disappeared. Tonight, the Awakened will gather and go to him to inquire about the situation. ”

The bearded voice fell to the ground.

One of the people behind Lindsay also raised his glass:

"Look at what you said, maybe it's another rumor."

"The mutation in the forest has only been subsided for a week, and you can see what the town is all about."

"How can there be any reliable news!"

Everyone nodded.

This is indeed the case in the town, and the truth of the news needs to be screened by yourself.

But at the table that led to the topic, a girl suddenly spoke:

"I don't think it's going to be easy."

"The mutation just ended a week ago, and it's normal to make a fuss about these things, after all, everyone has been holding back for more than a month. But now? The most anxious guys have already left, and there must be a deep reason for the problems that only appeared at this time! ”

The companion next to the girl asked:

"Nana, what do you think could have caused this to happen?"

"Everyone is ready to travel, how can we make such trouble, as for the things that are relatively close...... It's only the civil war in Jiuwan City. ”

Will the civil war in Jiuwan City affect Echo Valley Town?

The idea came to the minds of the people at the inn, and the discussion slowed down.

At this moment, the man behind Lindsay had a whim and put forward a bold conjecture around him:

"You say, will the matter of Jiuwan City have anything to do with Montenegro?"

"There's a dead drake in that place! Seven stages! ”

"The person who killed him should have also come to the forest courtyard by now, maybe it was because of his arrival that this series of changes was triggered?"

Someone in the inn immediately retorted:

"You're not right, I heard that dragon beast died after failing to advance by itself!"

Bang!

The beard next to Lindsay smashed the wine glass directly on the table:

"Who will believe this nonsense?"

"That thing is still some years away from successfully advancing, so it definitely didn't die naturally."

The man behind Lindsay also sighed:

"Kill the seven-stage dragon beast...... Dragon-slaying heroes. ”

"In my life, I've only heard of such deeds in legends, but I didn't expect it to happen so close to the world next door."

There were also people at the other table who praised:

"Yes, how many years will it take to kill such a vicious beast that endangers the world!"

“……”

"You say, if I were that kind of person, what would it be like now?"

“……”

"Don't dream!"

“……”

The atmosphere in the tavern has changed.

The crowd shifted the conversation to Montenegro.

The forest courtyard coexists next to the Black Mountain world, and the dragon beast is indeed one of the major elements that has been entrenched in everyone's hearts for a long time.

Now, half a year has passed.

The news has also spread thoroughly.

This kind of real dragon slaying is even more emotional than finding the secret treasure in the forest.

In another six months, maybe there will be a poet who will make up something to sing

“……”

In the crowd, only Lindsay was a little embarrassed.

This group of adventurers is blowing and blowing, how did it become such a topic?

"Can't you just talk about information in the hotel? There's no need to discuss this kind of thing......"

Lindsay's old face flushed.

He lowered his head and took his dinner seriously.

The food provided by the hotel looks pretty good.

Click-

Lindsay took a bite of the staple food first, and her eyes lit up.

The environment of the forest garden did not allow for the cultivation of cereals on a large scale, and ordinary people did not have food made from flour. The staple food here is a yellow plantain leaf center called a yellow banana stick.

It has a refreshing and sweet taste, and when you bite into it, a white sticky juice oozes out.

"Hmmm......"

"Pretty good?"

Lindsay wiped her mouth.

This yellow banana stick tastes good, but the juice tends to stick to the mouth.

The wooden tray provided by the inn consisted of only a knife and a piece of bluetail fish as a side dish.

Lindsey cut open the fish and took a bite.

It may be that there are too many guests, and the fish is not handled perfectly, and there is a trace of fishy smell in it.

However, it is served with a berry dipping sauce that is a specialty of the forest.

After that sweet and sour blend, the whole dish becomes acceptable and even delicious.

After taking two bites of yellow banana sticks and fish, Lindsay picked up a drink on the side.

The innkeeper wanted to offer him fruity beer, but Lindsey strictly refused alcoholic beverages and replaced it with a glass of locally produced berry juice.

Lindsay raised her glass and sniffed it.

The color of the fresh juice is cloudy, and there are even residues of pomace and peel, but the fruity aroma is very sweet.

Lindsay immediately took a sip.

"W-why is it so sour!"

Lindsay felt her shoulders ache so hard that they could be pressed together from behind.

The juice was ridiculously sour, and his 60-point physique felt his scalp tingle, and his mouth began to secrete a lot of saliva.

"Haha-"

Lindsay's reaction immediately elicited laughter from the beards at the table.

He came up and patted Lindsay on the shoulder, and made a very familiar introduction:

"Brother, this thing is the juice of the red snake plum. It's rare to take a bite like you! ”

The people next to him were also attracted to attention.

However, unlike the beard, he focused on Lindsay's appearance:

"Huh? This friend, did you just come to the hotel today? I've never seen you before. ”

Lindsay immediately made up a reason:

"The previous mutation in the forest directly trapped me in the forest, and I finally waited until the mutation was over before returning to the town."

There are not a few people who have encountered this kind of experience.

Hearing Lindsay's answer, the man who opened his mouth to ask immediately comforted:

"It's okay, it's good to be back."

"I don't know how many people will die this time, you're lucky!"

Lindsey smirked:

"Indeed, I've always been lucky."

After a brief explanation, Lindsay casually led the conversation:

"By the way, I heard them say that something seems to be wrong in the north of the city, can you tell me more details?"

The man opposite immediately came to his senses, and opened his mouth to elaborate:

"Hey! Then you're asking the right person. ”

"I know this best, it was last night......

“……”

Lindsey spent two hours in the lobby of the hotel.

He made a few new friends and figured out what was going on in the north of the town.

As it got late, the rain slowed down in the Echo Valley, and a drizzle of goose feathers began to trickle down the streets.

But when Lindsay walked from the front hall of the hotel to the back room.

What appeared in front of him was a rather sloppy, plank-made makeshift shack.

He pushed open the loose door.

When I looked inside, there was even a little rain leak in the house.

There are also two wooden basins on the ground, where water is being received 'tick-tock'.

“……”

"No wonder two silver coins are enough to eat."

This scenery is also to be expected.

But looking at such a cheap room, Lindsay couldn't help but scratch her hair:

"Otherwise, you won't rest tonight?"

"Let's go straight to the north of town and see what the hell is going on with the disappearances and treasures they are talking about......"
