1335 Tavern 1

The Qinghaze Forest, located in the northwest of the Lanshan Hills, is a paradise for the demonic beasts of the surface plane, and it is the only area that has not been mass-killed by surface wizards some time ago.

Because there is not only a long-standing peace agreement here, but also an alliance of many fierce beasts.

Of course, the outer area of the Green Haze Forest is still open, because many beasts that are not high in strength but reproduce extremely fast still need to be cleared, otherwise the resources of the Green Haze Forest will not be able to supply the consumption of many fierce beasts.

Therefore, when he dared to venture into it more than a thousand years ago to collect resources and hunt low-level demonic beasts, instead of being stopped, he actually walked out with an agreement dictated by the Fierce Beast Alliance, so that this green haze forest that had been closed for thousands of years was reopened to the human world.

It's just that the Fierce Beast Alliance in the Qinghaze Forest also seems to understand the truth of control, so it only opens the only entrance on the south side, and strictly formulates the rules of hunting and trading.

However, because the resources of the initially opened area were not abundant, and the strength of the individuals with occasional mutations in the low-level demonic beasts was quite strong, when the risks of entering were greater than the benefits, many wizards and adventurers who heard the news suffered a big loss, and even a city lord and his personal guards who happened to pass by here fell into it and lost news.

But I don't know why, after the 'City Lord Incident', the Green Haze Forest became friendly and safe overnight, and finally a small town was built at the entrance to the south, so that adventurers entering and leaving the Green Haze Forest had a fixed resting place.

It's just that any shop in this town is unique.

There is only one tavern. There is only one inn, and there is only one pharmacy, blacksmith shop, grocery store, and many other shops!

It's like this is the rule that has been established in the town for many years, as long as it is a new store that has not been opened before, and the business scope does not conflict with other stores, it can be opened. Otherwise, it will be in this town for three to five days at most, and the owner of the unruly shop will disappear in vain, without exception.

When there are a large number of adventurers coming and going to and from the Haze Forest, there are often conflicts in inns, taverns, restaurants and other places in the town, but as long as the two sides of the conflict pay full compensation for the broken utensils afterwards, they will not be held accountable.

But if you want to rely on the strength of the people and want to repay the debt, then under the humus of the green haze forest. There will be many more fresh corpses, which will become nutrients for the green haze forest.

Therefore, when these many peculiar rules became known to everyone, the town became mysterious and extraordinarily comfortable.

Only because of the conscription decree issued by the Supreme Chamber during this time. Later, the subsequent success of the invasion of the Nightmare World made those who had not thought of participating in it get ready to move, so more and more adventurers led to the Haze Forest, which kept the shops and residents of the town busy.

The townsfolk who have always been conservative. Mysterious and powerful in the eyes of outsiders.

But for old Mike, who is the owner of a small town tavern. He knew everyone here.

Because all the people here are recluses, they are the ones who have obtained a new identity from the Qinghaze Forest Fierce Beast Alliance in various ways to be able to settle in the town.

So the street looks like a drunkard to outsiders, but in fact, when he pulls out the dagger in his boots, he can immediately restore his identity as a fierce thief!

And the silly old man curled up on a chaise longue wrapped in dirty, old robes will become a powerful wizard with a mysterious and hidden past when he launches a storm, and the scorching magic that can be unleashed at will even burn all the outsiders in the town to ashes!

Of course, as the head of the only tavern in the town. Old Mike was also an extremely fierce guy back then, just because he had been living in seclusion here for too long. His muscles were relaxed, his belly was already bulging, his sharp gaze was cloudy, and the rough calluses of his hands were not visible, but only his alertness was still there, but it was not easy to attract the attention of outsiders.

It's just that Old Mike didn't take over the tavern for the purpose of making money, so he was very dissatisfied when the tavern was doing well, but because of his current status, he also had to make the kitchen prepare more food, and make the barmaid more diligent, so that all the outsiders who entered the tavern could be fed and drunk, and then leave his territory in a hurry to give him a peaceful environment.

However, the few guys who returned from the Qinghaze Forest today celebrated because they got a cherished golden-horned snake, so even though the time was close to the closing time, the tavern was still extremely noisy and noisy, and even the handymen in the kitchen needed to come out to deliver food and wine, and the two barmaids were already full of feet that did not touch the ground......

But just when the wine in Old Mike's mouth became light and tasteless, and his eyes staring at the hourglass were a little sour, a cool breeze hit in vain, making Old Mike, who was sitting shirtless at the bar, shiver, and then turned his angry gaze to the door not far from the bar!

Between the cracks in the door that had been pushed open from the outside, a small pink face appeared, and the eyebrows and eyes were crooked, containing a deep curiosity and a little vigilance.

And the little girl was dragged in by a young man with a somewhat thin body, black hair and pale complexion, but extremely gentle eyes.

The tavern that is about to close naturally does not welcome new guests, but I don't know if it is because the bargirl is busy today or because of the cuteness of the little girl, the bargirl who just put down the wine bottle actually greeted and wanted to lead the way!

Seeing this, the angry old Mike just wanted to slap the table, but the girl with a huge cloak and a delicate face who followed in from outside the door, and the sturdy young man who was less than a meter tall but could not be a human being, but the palm that made the old Mike clap it quickly raised!

He had been in charge of this tavern for decades, and his eyesight had been honed during his career of licking blood from the knife edge, so that old Mike immediately noticed that something was wrong.

But old Mike was still a little confused about what was wrong, so after thinking about it, he decided to take a look.

The four people who were led to the corner by the barmaid ordered food and ordered drinks after sitting down, although the atmosphere of the whole tavern was already very warm, but the atmosphere in the corner was a little stagnant!

The pink little girl hugged the young man's arm and secretly looked at the tavern, with excitement and a little nervousness in her eyes.

And the thin young man beside her kept looking at the little girl with a smile on his face, with both relief and a little helplessness, while the fierce young man with a full face but clear eyes seemed to be very curious about the surroundings.

Only the fair-faced girl was furled, lying on the table with a bored face, her eyes casually scanning the smoky tavern, and finally turned to the bar, and noticed old Mike, who was staring in this direction with his chin resting on the table.

I was concerned because of curiosity, and because this was the tavern he was in charge of, old Mike naturally made no secret when he peeked.

But when the eyes of this delicate girl turned, the noisy and noisy sounds that old Mike's ears could hear before seemed to be blocked in vain, and quickly weakened until they disappeared!

And the face of the young girl in Old Mike's eyes gradually became blurred in the smile, as if there was a thin piece of paper blocking his eyes, so that not a single qiē in his vision was transparent.

Old Mike, who was very depressed because the tavern business was too good all night, although he knew that he had drunk a little too much today, but it stands to reason that he shouldn't be drunk with so much wine, so after he cheered up, his eyes widened and he wanted to take a closer look!

But the whole face of this delicate girl began to fester, as if it had been corroded, and when the skin peeled off, he saw the bright red muscles and transparent veins underneath, and then the terrible white bones that caught old Mike's eyes...... (To be continued......)
