Chapter 142: Trouble at the door

However, Lance did not intend to directly end up with the burly man.

He wanted to try out the power of the triple sword strike after possessing the power of the godhead.

To launch three sword strikes, there must be a certain distance, so Lance quickly turned back and retreated a few meters, and then after a pause, Lance shouted "Suddenly", and the whole person immediately turned into a phantom, as if disappearing in place, and then suddenly appeared in front of the burly man.

"Broken ......"

Lance's long sword slashed out diagonally, and the sword that was originally used to break the defense was directly split in half without any resistance under the burly strong man's frightened gaze.

Because the speed was too fast, and the sword of Sohana was too sharp, so when Lance used the "burst" backwards again, and after retreating a few meters away, the burly man's body broke in two from his left shoulder to his right waist.

What happened suddenly was not only the unwillingness and fear in the eyes of the burly man, but even the initiator Lance was incredible.

When he was in the Erin Forest, his consciousness was a little blurred, and he was fighting against Eliface Levy of the Double Cultivation Grand Rank Realm, so it didn't feel very obvious.

But now against such a burly and strong man whose strength is much weaker than himself, the power of the three consecutive sword strikes is suddenly reflected.

At this moment, Lilith also killed the remaining red dogs.

With some excitement, she dragged the bloody sword, walked to Lance's side and said, "Lance, it's so fun, it's so exciting...... Hee-hee......"

"Fun, exciting, Lilith, I've checked before, you're obviously just an ordinary person, and you're not even at the level of a martial artist apprentice, how did you do that?"

After Lance withdrew the sword of Sohana, he casually gestured with his hand in the air and looked at Lilith with a questioning look.

Lilith's performance just now, where is an ordinary person, it is clearly a martial artist who is not weak.

"When I was in the abyss, I watched you practice swords every day, and then I would be there. ”

"I practice swords every day, do you think you know?"

Lance looked at Lilith in disbelief, if that was the case, how terrifying it would be to have such a talent.

"Yes, it's just a matter of seeing, otherwise who would I learn from......?"

In more than ten days, just by looking at it, you can have the strength of a mid-level martial cultivator in the junior realm, and with this speed of progress, I'm afraid it won't take long to break through the high-level realm.

Because of Lilith's talent as a warrior, Lance ignored another of her abilities.

The battle didn't last long before the danger was over, and Lance searched the burly man with the strong smell of blood, finding dozens of silver coins, as well as some uncontaminated ales and food.

After cleaning the battlefield, it was already completely dark, and if you left this village, then you would have to sleep in the wilderness, so you simply chose a house near the entrance of the village to live in.

Although there were dozens of corpses outside, it was nothing to fear for Lilith.

And Lilith also has the ability to communicate with unseen and untouched spirits, and if there really is a short-sighted evil spirit that wants to cause trouble, they don't mind beating it away.

Lance used the magic torch he carried with him to light an oil lamp placed on the table.

The house looked dilapidated, but it was well stocked with daily necessities, and there was a lot of dry firewood piled up next to the fire, which the family must have prepared for cooking.

After a brief inspection of the house, Lance retrieved a pot from a corner of the room, along with some cooking tools.

Then it's about making a fire and cooking.

After a brief meal, Lance made the bed in the room and let Lilith rest on it, while he sat by the fire and watched the night.

In such a place, Lance didn't dare to sleep peacefully, who knows if something will happen, it's better to be careful.

There was no talk all night, but when it was slightly dark, a noise outside the village caught Lance's attention.

Seeing that Lilith was still asleep, Lance carefully surveyed the outside through the somewhat broken windows.

It turned out that the place where the beast tamer was killed last night was gathered five warrior monks dressed as mercenaries.

The outfits of these people were obviously those of the Northern Kingdom, and among them was a green-skinned half-orc who was nearly two meters tall.

Through the window, Lance saw the orc lift half of the tamer's body, then cut off his head with a knife and put it in the backpack he carried.

"Haha...... I can't imagine that the red dog, which we have been chasing for so long, will be killed here, haha...... It really made us pick up a bargain. ”

The half-orc threw half of the beast trainer's body on the ground, then looked left and right, and continued to say to the group: "Brothers, in order to chase this red dog, we haven't closed our eyes all night, find a room to sleep in, and go back to the mercenary fortress tomorrow to receive the reward, haha......"

"Big brother, who do you say will kill the red dog? Look at the cut of the wound, the other party's strength is very strong, and you look here......"

A mercenary dressed as a standard swordsman in the team crouched next to the half of his body that had just been thrown away by the orc, and then used his fingers to remove the cut face, and a thick black blood flowed out of it.

The mercenary saw the orc brother frowning and came over for some reason, and then said mysteriously: "You see, judging from the color of the blood and the degree of corruption of the wound, the time of his death should have been yesterday evening, but the other party did not cut off the head of the red dog, so it must not be the mercenary who killed him, but happened to pass by here, and the red dog was solved easily." ”

"Grass...... What do you want to say, just say it, Lao Tzu can't afford to play such a brain-using game with you. ”

The other, more burly heavy axeman in the group, said to the swordsman mercenary with some impatience.

The swordsman mercenary was not angry, he glanced at the heavy axeman, and said slowly: "Okay, it's really tiring to talk to you rough people, then I'll directly say my judgment, there were two people who killed the red dog last night, and one of them was at least at the peak of the Beginner Realm, or even higher......"

"Isn't it the pinnacle of the primary realm, what's so scary about this, and our prey is already in hand, by the way, there is another one?"

The heavy axeman had just finished his sentence when he suddenly thought of another person, so he hurriedly asked.

"Hmph...... The other one is a woman, and she is also not weak. ”

When they heard the swordsman mercenary say that the other one was a woman, the other people immediately showed a silver look in their eyes, and they all coaxed to say that they wanted to find Le Hehe!

Just as the others were coaxing, a look of disgust appeared on the swordsman's face.

"Brothers, don't think about that mess, since they can easily slaughter the red dog, the strength of both of them is not weak, let's have more than one thing, hurry up and take a rest, and go back to the mercenary fortress tomorrow to receive the reward, when the time comes, you have to play with women, isn't that too much?"

The swordsman mercenary interrupted the others' heckling and said.

Obviously, he is acting as a military advisor in this mercenary team.

Lance peered through the window and heard the group speak clearly.

He didn't have much aversion to the cold-bloodedness and cruelty of mercenaries, after all, the life of licking blood from the knife edge, if he was not cruel and cold-blooded to the enemy, it might be the enemy's cruelty to himself.

But when they heard the woman's expression, and the array of silvery words, Lance felt a pang of disgust.

Lance had already made a plan, if these guys didn't provoke them, then forget it, but once he had bad intentions, he would definitely kill them all with a thunderous force.

Although Lance was already very disgusted with this group of people, he got some useful information from their words - Mercenary Fortress.

The Mercenary Fortress is a neutral institution established by the Western Tribal Forces.

Anyone can post a bounty in a Mercenary Stronghold, and anyone who feels they have the ability to do so can pick up a mission in a Mercenary Stronghold.

There's only one rule here, take the money and do the work.

In the mercenary fortress, there is a special mercenary union, and this is also the headquarters of the mercenary union of the whole continent.

Legend has it that the Mercenary Fortress was established by a legendary mercenary on the continent, and it is said that this legendary mercenary has the strength to surpass the Great Rank Realm, but no one has ever seen this legendary mercenary.

No one knew where he came from, he seemed to appear out of thin air, and after he appeared, it caused an uproar in the mercenary world of the entire continent.

No matter what the task, no matter what the cost, as long as he takes it, none of them will be unfinished, and they will all be completed beyond the expectations of the employer.

But hundreds of years ago, after completing an impossible mission, he went to the Western Tribal Forces alone and established a mercenary fortress.

Although hundreds of years have passed and no one knows if he is still alive, he has become a symbol of the Mercenary Fortress.

Now that he knew the approximate location, Lance had a plan in mind.

He was going to take Lilith to the legendary place of the Mercenary Fortress, and then inquired about the current situation on the continent by the way.

Especially when they left the city of Kohima, Gad Mora told him about the power strife and the undercurrents within the church.

Just as Lance was about to leave the window and go back to the fire that was about to go out, to prepare something to eat for Lilith.

The mercenaries chose the house where they were staying.

The door was rudely pushed open by the green-skinned orc, and after pushing the door open, the green-skinned orc saw Lance, first stunned, and then babbled: "Ah...... Someone, brother, you're the one who killed the red dog, right? Huh, ......?"

The green-skinned orc's loud voice like a gong woke Lilith from her slumber.

Then there was some lewd look in his eyes.

The green-skinned orc walked unceremoniously towards Lance.

However, the orc had barely taken two steps before Lance immediately summoned the sword of Sohana.

The long sword that appeared out of thin air startled the orc, and at this time, the other four mercenaries also squeezed in.

When they saw Lilith, who was extremely beautiful in black veil, the frenzy in their eyes was undisguised.

However, the swordsman mercenary quietly withdrew from the room.

"Trench...... It's the best thing, boss, we're in luck today!haha......"

The heavy axe-bearer whispered loudly, oblivious to the change in Lance's expression.

Just as the heavy axeman was about to say something, they heard a sudden word, and Lance disappeared from the spot.

Before everyone could react, Lance's figure returned to the same place.

Before they could figure out what was happening, the heavy axe-bearer was already making some whimpering sounds, followed by a pillar of red blood splattered from his neck.
