After quickly suppressing all the Fallen Shadows in the village, the eleven adventurers split into five groups and began to search the village, which had begun to recover.

Even if the core was destroyed, there was no [ebbing] phenomenon, and the houses that had been flattened by the military charge grew back from the ground, while some sludge struggled to form itself into a human form, trying to restore it to the appearance of villagers.

This is also the reason why the military had to issue a commission, it is too dangerous to conduct a search without preventing the regeneration of filth, and the constant destruction of the shadows brings not only physical fatigue to the soldiers, but also psychological pressure, and the only way to complete the task is to increase the number of people.

The grouping of adventurers is a bit strange, seven unbranded and four regular, but in the end, three regular adventurers huddle together to keep warm, and the strange man Serrando runs to join in the fun with the unbranded ones for some reason.

In the words of the fighter who almost wanted to quit before, it's called "thank goodness."

"That man is so weird, if I were to be in a group with him, I would die in my heart. ”

The criteria for choosing teammates for the weird were also weird, and he actually got together with that Vikin Kaka.

"This village is quite rich if you take a closer look, with a two-story building per capita. Thrando unleashed a stand-in first, and a slightly sluggish "Thrando" appeared with his spell and walked into the gray-black house made of filth in front of him.

"It's not dangerous for the time being, let's go inside. With that, Serrando didn't wait for Vikin Kaka, who was a berserker, to enter the house.

Vikin Kaka hurriedly followed, complaining, "Why are you a mage walking in front of you? ”

"If all this people die, I won't die. Serando was not afraid of what he said, "Am I an ordinary mage?"

Vikinkaka didn't pay attention to his words, but hesitated a little and asked, "Is it really okay for you to let Dwarf Bin and that merchant named Lot team up?"

Therlandor instructed his avatar to search around the living room as soon as he entered, and used his missile technique to disperse a shadow that was almost formed, and replied, "Aren't they okay with each other? That Roth behaved better than we expected, and I thought things were smashed when the shadow of the vigilante attacked." ”

Vikin Kaka poked open a curtain with a stick, and found that there was no shadow hiding behind, nodded and said: "Yes, the short man Bin is Tofu Heart, and he will definitely be soft-hearted if the merchant behaves so well...... But along the way, I saw that Roth really had a hand in fighting, a bit powerful by the standards of a trader, and he thought about helping you, can you believe it?"

"Help me?" Thrando raised an eyebrow, his double was also searching the guest room when he was nailed to the wall by the shadow of the farmer hiding inside, and the double blew itself up, blowing up the entire room into rubble.

"It's the one who touched the shadow of the assassin next to you, and was stabbed to death by the dark soldier. Vikinkaka punched the house dog-type filthy beast that pounced down the stairs, "I was staring at Roth, and he found out in advance, but the Dark Man is faster than him." ”

Serrando himself found out at the last minute, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised to hear Vikin Kaka say this: "Is that kid so sharp......"

"Can you tell me more about what you were going to do with that merchant?" Vikinkaka curious.

"If he is the kind of businessman who knows how bitter the border is but still has no conscience, of course he will solve it. "If he has a conscience, I'll help him this time, and if he behaves better, I won't let him participate in the second part of this commission, in case there is a loss to us if there is one less good businessman." ”

"And now?" asked Vikinkaka, leaning on his stick and smiling.

Therlandor let the new stand-in slowly climb up the stairs to the second floor, and replied, "Now, now that I kind of want to bring him in, wouldn't it be more useful to have this ability to help directly than to be a businessman?"

Vikinkaka followed the stand-in and walked upstairs: "What? Do you really want to get an all-nation team out?"

Serrando smiled while paying attention to whether there was anything missing on the first floor: "Don't say it's really possible, Eh, I and Dwarf Bin can top two, you are Wicken, and if you add a Qin and Han people, we will only be Ant-Man?"

Vikinkaka found the shadow of a woman holding a kitchen knife pointed at him upstairs, trembling incessantly, and said with a wry smile: "This is a bit difficult, unless you hire an Ant-Man bodyguard with the military for a long time, but that is not a companion, right? ”

Then he smashed the shadow without hesitation.

Serando used his magic to find a cellar, and instead of choosing to go in, he poured it directly into it with the fire tongue technique, and after confirming that there was no movement inside, he put a magic eye down, and saw three small and badly damaged humanoid shadows still writhing.

He couldn't help but snort, was silent for a while, and said, "I want him to participate in the second part of this commission." ”

"Huh, you're trying to kill him again?" Vikinka stomped the stairs, collapsing it.

"No, I have some ideas and want to try him more. ”

"Can he agree, the second stage starts to disappear from people with low strength, and his internal strength is not the first. ”

Serrando looked at Vikinkaka, "Why do you think I'm calling everyone?"

"I knew it wouldn't be just for a businessman, don't sell it, tell me!" Vikinkaka excitedly.

Serrando looked at the rooms that had now been almost restored and said, "I discovered the abnormality of this village half a year ago, and I have been studying it since, but I didn't expect the army to suddenly move. ”

Roth volunteered to take the area with the pigsty when assigning their respective search ranges, on the grounds that he had more experience fighting filthy beasts as a trader and would have an easier time dealing with them.

I didn't expect that the short assassin who had scolded him before would ask to be with him, but Roth wanted to say a few more words to him, so he didn't refuse.

Neither decision proved to be very wise.

First of all, the pigsty in this village hundreds of years ago was much larger than Roth imagined, and it seems that the pigs in the whole village were raised uniformly.

The speed at which filth generates filthy beasts and shadows is mainly related to the intelligence and strength of the embodied creature, although the captive domestic pig is also weak when it becomes a filthy beast, but the speed of regeneration is terrifying, you hack one here, and another one may grow out of the ground over there, Roth only feels as if he is surrounded by ten thousand pigs.

And the man who called himself Dwarf Bin did not come to help, but just stood at the door of the pigsty, observing Roth's struggle.

Fortunately, Roth gradually found his rhythm, and he was finally able to slash a pig with almost no internal force.

Even if it is a drop in the bucket to completely eliminate one with internal force, because it will not take much time for these domestic pig filthy beasts to grow back from the ground, Roth simply gave up the idea of killing them all, and if there is an arch, he will incapacitate it with a knife, and slowly start to search the pigsty.

"You've got a good idea. Dwarf Bin was amused by him, "Do you really think there are any clues in the pigsty? ”

Roth shook his head and said, "Just in case, since I took the initiative to ask for this place, then I have to find out." ”

Dwarf Zibin snorted, and used his fighting spirit to control the silk thread in his hand to sweep the entire pigsty, and then said: "Isn't it enough to destroy this pigsty directly, why are you looking so carefully?

Roth paused for a moment, but then he still stepped on the mud turned into a filthy beast and searched carefully: "Judging from the majesty of that military formation, one team can do this, the two teams of soldiers who came here before were completely enough to crush the entire village, why is this village still there? Maybe it's not that simple...... Of course, you must be more experienced than me, as an adventurer you are a senior, if I do something wrong, I hope you can help me correct. ”

The dwarf bin raised his hand impatiently, and the whole pigsty was knocked down, and Roth squinted, and then stood in place, not hiding from it, and not a single piece of broken wood or broken tile touched him.

The dwarf bin who had wanted to see him panicked became more and more unhappy, turned his head and walked away: "Do you want to listen to my opinion? Then don't waste time in the pigsty!

"Always fight for it. Roth shrugged his shoulders and stepped out of the remains of the pigsty, but stopped as he walked to where the entrance to the pigsty had been.

Not far away was a small inconspicuous ruin, which had just been destroyed and had not yet begun to regenerate, and Roth glanced at what seemed to be a place for chickens and ducks before entering the pigsty to search it.

Under the gray-black rubble, a few small humanoid shadows could barely be seen.

Speaking of which, when I was in the village of Springpup, children often gathered around the chickens and ducks and chased them to play.

But the goose is different, and I don't know who is chasing whom.

Shadow of a child......

"Why are you unbranded?" Roth asked.

Dwarf Bin turned his head and glared at Roth: "What do you want to say?"

"I just don't quite understand. Roth said, "No brand should be a job that people with no way out will choose, I thought that only criminals and bankrupts would be unbranded, but you ......"

"Hmph, how am I?"

"You're so good-hearted, I can't figure it out. ”

The dwarf bin spat on the ground and said, "Bah! Good heart, are you blind?"

Without dwelling further on the subject, Roth quickly followed him, walked towards the herdsman's hut, and pushed open the door of the hut before the dwarf bin did.

A logging axe slashed at his head!

Roth raised his knife to block, but changed his mind halfway, ignoring the opponent's axe, and slashed straight at the enemy!

Sure enough, the axe was caught in the silk thread, and Roth chopped off the head of the shadow in front of him, and then cut its body in two with a flip of his wrist.

Dwarf Bin was almost angry: "MD, are you crazy?"

"But your thread is already there, isn't it? Roth began to find this man interesting.

Dwarf Zibin instantly became serious: "You, how did you find out?"

"It's hard for me to explain, it's just that it feels there. ”

It's not that Roth is deliberately trying to hide something, he really doesn't know, and he doesn't want to know.

"So it wasn't by chance that you turned your head when Thrando was touched by the assassin?"

Luo nodded and said, "I did feel something, but it was still too slow. Anyway, Mr. Bing ......"

"I can go to your Mr. Bin!" the dwarf Bin said angrily, "I'm not from the Qin and Han dynasties, you really think that I can't be a single guest!"

"Then I should ......"

"My name is Shorty Bin, and you just call me Shorty Bin!" he said, throwing the silk thread into the hut, stirring it and then taking it back, "There's nothing here, go to the next place!"

Although the short bin strides are small, his cadence is extremely fast, and Roth has to walk briskly to keep up.

"So, Bin the Short, do you think I'm fit to be an adventurer?"

The dwarf bin snorted: "Who gave you the courage to say this? ”

"I do want to try. ”

"Tsk, don't you know what to do? Do you think you can live by your own ability? Go out and wait honestly, you don't want to die for money?"

When Roth heard this, he already had a point in his heart, so he made it clear: "How many people are with Serando?"

Short Binch said, "Well, you're a lot smarter than I thought." ”

Roth shook his head and said, "Mainly because you've all been a little too lazy to hide it later." ”

"I'm not going to kill you anyway, and of course there's nothing to hide. Short Zibin sneered, "You are also big-hearted, a stranger who just met said that he wanted to help you, and you really dared to come." ”

"I know what the frontier adventurers think of the traders, but I don't do anything bad to fear a regular adventurer, even if he's a strange person. ”

"Didn't do anything wrong?"

"Speculation, I understand the disgust of those of you who have been on the front lines for a long time. "But the reality is that the kingdom doesn't have the ability to take care of every part of the border, and there must be this kind of civil force to help mobilize supplies, and there is a great risk in transporting supplies to the border." In addition to the attack of the filthy beast, there will be all kinds of unexpected situations, and the risk of losing all your money will always exist, if there is no heavy profit, how can the merchants take action?"

Shorty Bin did not reply, and Roth continued: "The more the United Kingdom expands, the longer the borders will be, and the larger the polluted areas will be, and the fundamental crux lies in the kingdom itself, not in us merchants. ”

"Do you mean that the money we earned with our lives deserves to be exploited by you?"

"I didn't think so, and now, even less. There was sincerity in Rot's words, mainly because he wasn't really a merchant in the first place—he had heard everything he said to the dwarf from other merchants, "I just think your ideas are a little too extreme, and the merchants are not as bad as you think." Even if they are really bad people, then what effect can they do to the world by falling into the grave for the downfall?"

As he said the last sentence, Roth's head felt some pain inexplicably, but he soon stopped thinking about it.

"Then what can work on this world? Do you want us to learn from the so-called chivalrous man in the story of the Romance of the Qin and Han Dynasties, and play to rob the rich and help the poor?"

...... Does the new King Wickhn really look that like a potato?

"But it's true that attacking from all directions is about to be untenable, I don't know that much about the upper floors, and I don't see any problems with building walls alone. Defending in certain directions and fighting in one direction until there are no more worries is obviously more reasonable, and the big logistical problems of the kingdom can also be alleviated. ”

Although this idea is basically a pipe dream, Roth really can't think of anything wrong with it.

...... When did the topic come to this?

Short Zibin really couldn't think of anything to refute Roth's statement for a while, but he was unwilling to accept it like this, and after glaring at Roth for a while, he suddenly disappeared again, leaving only a sentence.

"Whatever you like, I'll search the rest of the place myself!"

Anyway, this dwarf bin seems to be a little ...... in some places Immature?

Lot scratched his head, but he didn't know what to do next, it was dangerous to walk around the village alone, he already had a rough understanding of this, Dwarf Bin had that stealth ability and might not be afraid to fight alone, but Roth didn't have that confidence.

In case it is forced to the point of revealing the stuffing, all the preparations made before will be in vain.

Could it be that he didn't stand here and didn't move? Roth was a little embarrassed, how could these few words fall apart.

But he soon realized that he didn't need to care about it, as a faint gray mist began to spread on the ground.

Roth felt that the fog was somewhat familiar, and his eyelids kept jumping.

He crouched down and brushed the mist with his hand, and was surprised to find that the ground under the gray mist was no longer the mud color of the filth, but the color of the normal land, and even a few small grasses appeared in the field of vision!

Captain Liu Yuanwu's voice resounded throughout the village: "Everyone! Assemble in the center of the village! Those who do not want to participate in the second part of the operation should not panic and obey the command!"

Unlike in the intelligence, the fog appeared less than an hour after they came here, and Liu Yuan couldn't care less about the promise that he wouldn't take the risk to force him to obey the order.

The dwarf Bin, who was about to kill the shadow of a child, suddenly trembled, turned his head and fled.

Because the boy made of sludge "came to life" before his eyes!

Vikinkaka looked at the fog that was getting bigger and bigger around him, and stammered, "This, Thur, you, Thrando, did you do this?"

The emaciated Serando patted Vikingaka's sturdy body and comforted, "Don't be afraid, I just want to get everything done at once." ”
