Landry rubbed his swollen head before he remembered that he had been drunk last night. Daphne went over and handed him a jug of water.

"What a gaffe, I didn't expect to drink so much. Landry blushed.

Daphne smiled, this person is not young, but his personality is shy, perhaps because of his identity as a farmer before becoming a magician, he has a simple nature, no wonder Lu Ming befriended him the first time they met.

She stretched out her hand, and a green fruit appeared in her palm, and handed it to Landry.

"This is the fruit of the decanting, which was originally prepared for him, and he has not been drinking much. ”

Landry took the fruit, thanked him again and again, and after swallowing it, he didn't feel dizzy. This elf lady is not only beautiful, but also so caring, Lu Ming is really lucky.

Selia returned from patrol with a hare in her hand. In winter, the hare was very well hidden, and Celia learned many hunting techniques from her master, and it didn't take much effort to catch a hare.

She happily ran to Lu Ming to ask for credit, but Lu Ming blamed her for not resting all night, seeing that she was about to cry again, Lu Ming had to pinch her little face, and it took a lot of time to force the tears back.

Lu Ming didn't like to eat meat in the morning, so he threw the hare into the space necklace and waited until noon to take it out.

The group continued on their way, as they were going through a forest of demonic beasts, and they walked very carefully.

Lu Ming still had palpitations, maybe at some point he would pop up like a difficult high-level demonic beast like the Demon Sound Fox, and now there were no two saint-level powerhouses to escort him, so he should be even more careful.

During this period, Landry asked about Selia's identity, and it was indeed curious that a little girl appeared among the mercenaries. Lu Ming didn't want to lie to him, so he had to smile and not speak.

In the evening, the city of Kiwick finally came into view. Several people quickened their pace and quickly came to the city.

Daphne glanced at the situation in the city and couldn't help but frown. There were hundreds of mercenaries in the city, divided into about a dozen teams.

The Monster mount attracted their attention, and some people had both envy and reverence in their eyes, and the strength of the mount represented several people was extraordinary.

There are even many mercenaries here who can't even beat low-level magical beasts, just want to try their luck, maybe they can pick up a leak and get the witch's head.

The four of them came to a corner, and Daphne said, "It's strange here, I've never seen so many mercenaries gather together to complete a bounty goal in all my years as a mercenary." ”

Landry replied, "Miss Daphne is right, we should inquire about the information before we make a plan." ”

The three of them each went to find out the information, leaving Selia to guard the two monsters. After they were gone, Celia stood on tiptoe and toyed with the ice bear's ears, the ice bear did not dare to resist, it instinctively felt that the little girl contained a powerful power that would make her heart palpitate.

Not long after the three of them came back one after another, Selia hurriedly straightened her posture and made a well-behaved gesture, for fear that her master would see her bullying the ice bear.

The three of them shared and integrated the information they received with each other to get a general idea of the city.

It has been more than seven days since the witch arrived in Kiwick City, during which dozens of civilians have disappeared, and passing mercenaries have found the witch's head, so they contact the city lord to issue a bounty mission.

Strangely, after the witch was offered a bounty, she did not escape, but remained in the city.

The people of the city were so panicked that nearly half of them fled. Many mercenaries came to arrest the witch, but the witch was so strong that she killed more than a dozen mercenaries one after another.

In desperation, the city lord had no choice but to increase the amount of the bounty, as long as he could get rid of the witch, regardless of life or death, he would receive 8,000 gold coins.

This was an irresistible temptation for the mercenaries, so hundreds of mercenaries gathered here to discuss countermeasures.

"Let me tell you, let's rush in and kill the witch together, and each of the eight thousand gold coins will get a hundred. A mercenary shouted.

"There will definitely be casualties then, what about those mercenaries who unfortunately die?"

"They can only be blamed for their bad luck, money can only be earned and enjoyed by the living. ”

A group of mercenaries discussed it with a lot of mouth, but it was fruitless for a long time, and even some mercenary groups left angrily, looking for a place to stay.

Landry shook his head, "The more people there are, the more uneven their hearts become." ”

The group decided to rest for the night, and they found an inn, but they didn't expect that the owner had run away, and it was an ownerless place, and they didn't spend a penny to stay. It's a bargain.

Daphne sneaked to Lu Ming in the middle of the night and found him cultivating on his knees. She also tried the cross-knee position, but she always felt uncomfortable.

Lu Ming opened his eyes, "Don't mess around, the witch doesn't know what strength she has yet." I'm not in the mood to accompany you. ”

"Hmph!" Daphne looked at him with a little disgust, "You think I'm looking for you for that? I'm going to the witch's lair to get some information and come and talk to you." ”

Lu Ming raised his eyebrows, "Wouldn't this be too dangerous?"

Daphne said proudly: "You forget, I am a night elf, good at lurking, as long as her strength is less than the holy level, I am confident that she will not be discovered." ”

Lu Ming got up from the bed, "I'd better go with you, it's too dangerous for you to be alone." ”

Daphne's heart warmed, and she shook her head and said, "There are many mercenaries here, and Selia's safety is equally important. Don't worry, if I see that the situation is not good, I will definitely flee as soon as possible. ”

Lu Ming thought about it, and finally agreed, and after she left, he came to Selia's room next door. He has night vision and everything in the room is clearly visible.

Selia was lying on the bed like a delicate porcelain doll, her chest and abdomen rising and falling with her breathing, and the sword within her reach.

Lu Ming walked over slowly, and just as he was about to approach Selia, the little girl suddenly woke up, and glanced at Lu Ming with her eyes like electricity, and at the same time, one hand had firmly held the thin sword in her hand.

After she sensed the familiar aura of the arrival, she immediately turned into a timid appearance and knelt on the bed, "Master, why are you here?"

Lu Ming grinned, "I'll carry you to sleep." ”

He put his feet together and took off his shoes, came to lie down next to her, and reached out to take her in his arms.

"It's been so hard for you for so many years, but it won't be like this again in the future, I will protect you. ”

The little girl's eyes became moist, and crystal tears accumulated in the corners of her eyes, which could fall at any time.

Lu Ming pinched her little nose, "Don't cry, or I'll spank you." ”

Celia sniffled, stopping her crying. said timidly: "The slave heard that the master loves to spank women's buttocks, and the slave's ass is still very small, I hope the master will not mind, and the slave is willing to be punished by the master." ”

Lu Ming took a deep breath and asked, "Who told you this?"

"It's Sister Daphne..."

I knew that she must be slandering herself.

"I'm telling you, she's not a good person, you can't trust her in the future?"

Celeya flashed with big eyes and asked, "Master, what is a good person?"

"Didn't your master teach you the most basic common sense and distinguish between good and bad?"

"Master said that there is no good or bad in the world, and there are no good people and bad people. ”

"Your master is wrong. ”

"Well, the slave will listen to the master in the future. ”
