Chapter 466: Tailgating
Most exorcists will probably choose to leave if they haven't encountered a few monsters after squatting for a month.
Their main purpose is not to earn gold, but to hunt monsters.
The cattle, sheep and horses in the pasture are just a bait for them.
Hunting monsters is the goal, and protecting the ranch is only incidental.
If you can't squat at a monster, you naturally won't continue to waste time.
The entrusted task of the Ranch of Fuego is purely a matter of luck, and the number and strength of the monsters are not necessarily.
But in general, the monsters that come here are not too strong, just some ordinary monsters.
This can be regarded as a little kindness from Tiva, helping Hellag to pick a relatively less dangerous one, which can be regarded as taking care of this ignorant and fearless stunned young man.
Of course, Tiwa won't say it.
Herag glanced at it and felt that this task could be tried.
In fact, he can go directly out of Amy City and hunt monsters everywhere.
But the problem with this is that some key intelligence information is missing.
Just like the tentacles in the Thousand Lakes, you don't know where you go and you'll encounter some extremely powerful monsters.
Through the channel of the Old Tree Bar, Herag can at least learn some information, and have a general understanding of the strength of the monster in his heart.
If you have a certain understanding before you make a move, you will have a much greater grasp and the risk will be reduced a lot.
This is much more stable than carrying a sword and wandering around, and Herag does not think that he is strong enough to move around the world at will.
"Then this task." Hellag said.
Tiwa said, "Then you can take this document and go directly to the Ranch of Fire in the south, and show it to the ranch owner." ”
There is no need to sign to receive a commission here, because many people are illiterate.
The parchment in Herag's hand is the voucher that represents you receiving the corresponding entrusted task.
Herag took the parchment out of the tavern and prepared to go to the ranch of Fire.
After he left, a man in a cowboy hat put down his glass and stood up, and came to the door of the room in the back, just in time to bump into Tiva, who had just come out.
"Man, I'd like to buy some information." The cowboy hat man said with a smirk.
"What information?" Tiwa asked.
"I just want to know, what mission did he take on when he just left that guy?" The cowboy hat man said.
Tiwa said expressionlessly, "Kramer, are you eyeing a newcomer again?" Die of this heart, I can't betray his message. If it gets out, I won't have to do this business. ”
Tiva knew very well that the reason why he was able to run these businesses in this place was all due to the trust of all parties and the rules that had been formed.
It is precisely because of the trust of the client and the person who receives the commission that they choose to come here.
If trust collapses, it's hard to build it back.
There's no way Tiwa would ruin years of credibility for the sake of such an intelligence business.
Kramer shrugged his shoulders and didn't say anything more, but turned to leave the bar.
He also knew Tiva's personality and just wanted to try it.
He saw that Herag was a fresh face and had a faint demonic aura on his body, so he immediately judged that this was a newcomer.
There are many people in the exorcist who are not only hunting monsters, but also hunting other exorcists.
Because hunting exorcists can also obtain demonic aura, but because monsters are more threatening, they rarely attack each other.
But there are always people who don't follow the rules and have extra thoughts.
People like Kramer often attack weaker exorcists.
In his opinion, these people are weak, and they still have a lot of demonic aura after killing, which is very cost-effective.
What's more, if you kill someone, you can also seize property and make more money.
There is no law in this world, only moral constraints.
For people like Kramer, moral restraint is worthless, and how to obtain more benefits is the problem he thinks about.
Herag returned to the backyard of the inn, took his horse, and led it out of the city, where horses were not allowed.
Not long after he left the city, Kramer also came out on horseback, hanging far behind Herag.
Herag didn't notice the man at first, but when he walked some distance, he noticed that he had been following him from a distance.
Even if he understood what was going on, he was being targeted.
Glancing at the sky, Herag continued on his way, keeping a distance from those behind him.
After sunset, night falls.
Herag had stepped into a jungle, the only way to the Ranch of Fire.
He tied his horse to the jungle and then went into hiding.
It didn't take long for Kramer to arrive on horseback.
Because of the jungle's view, he didn't see Herag's movements.
He thought he shouldn't have been spotted because he was tracking from a long distance.
Kramer had been following the whole time through horseshoe prints on the ground, so it was not assumed that Herag could spot someone hanging from behind.
He went into the jungle and saw the horse and realized that something was wrong.
Kramer immediately drew his longsword and watched his surroundings warily.
He stretched out his hand, and a black aura appeared in the palm of his left hand, condensing into a bird with a pitch-black body.
When the bird appeared, it flew above Kramer's head and kept circling.
Suddenly, the birds made a very unpleasant call.
Kramer's heart tightened, and he was about to dodge when the tip of a long sword suddenly appeared in front of him.
He looked down and saw that a long sword had pierced through his chest, and a sharp pain followed, and his body instantly lost its strength.
"When......" Kramer fell to the ground, blood spilling all over the ground.
He had no idea when Herag had touched his back.
The bird had just sent a warning shot, and he was hit before he could react.
Gerag indifferently glanced at Kramer, who was twitching slightly on the ground, and with a swing of his long sword, he directly killed the man.
A black gas wafted out of the man's body and was absorbed by Herag.
"Strength +1.6, Agility +1.7, Constitution +1.5."
Herag frowned when he saw this data, he clearly felt that there should not be so many.
The black qi that killed this person is slightly thicker, it should be around two points, but now it is less than two attributes.
Herag thought about it and guessed that he had killed too many fishmen some time ago and absorbed a lot of demonic aura.
And then now, the attribute bonuses brought by the demonic aura have gradually decreased, and the effect is a little worse than before.
This was also expected by Herag, who had guessed that the increase in demonic aura was likely to be smaller and smaller the further it went.
Herag didn't have too many ideas, and it would be good to have such an improvement, after all, his body stats have improved a lot now. (End of chapter)
