That night, the city lord's mansion held a banquet.

Of course, it was just an internal banquet, but despite this, those well-informed families sent people to send congratulatory gifts, saying that they were congratulating the city lord on his recovery, but it is unknown whether he thought so in his heart.

In the banquet, Ouyang Wannian was undoubtedly the heavyweight who sang the leading role, and under An Yixiao's repeated insistence, he sat in the lead. However, because the ladies did not sit at the same table, except for An Yixiao, everyone else was not very enthusiastic.

Ouyang Wannian naturally saw it clearly, and he also knew what the reason was, it was nothing more than that he slapped Shen Houzhi twice, they didn't give themselves a look, firstly, because of their scruples, and secondly, because of his "performance" strength, which was not bad, otherwise someone would have stopped doing it.

Naturally, such a banquet Ouyang Wannian is not uncommon, if it weren't for An Yixiao's enthusiastic attitude, he would have thrown off his sleeves and left, even so, he just drank a few glasses with An Yixiao, tasted a few dishes, and then said that he had something to do, and then flashed.

Early the next morning, An Ruoni appeared on time in the courtyard where Ouyang Wannian lived, yesterday the two made an appointment to go to the Mercenary Alliance today, Ouyang Wannian naturally did not forget, washed up a little, and went straight to the Mercenary Alliance with An Ruoni.

......

Although the news of the appearance of the Divine Pill in the Alliance Mall Auction House in the border desert city has been extremely strict in secrecy, as the saying goes, there is no impermeable wall, and it has only been three days, and the news is like having wings, and it has spread all over the city. Then it spread in all directions at a thunderous speed, causing the masters of all sides to rush towards the border deserted city desperately......

The reaction of the Alliance Mall Auction House was not slow, and they dispatched experts to protect the pill tightly as soon as possible, and at the same time, in addition to urgently reporting to the senior management of the Alliance Mall headquarters, they also seconded personnel to the nearest Alliance Mall branch, so that they could rush to the border desert city as soon as possible to ensure that the pill was foolproof.

Since the news leaked, the Alliance Mall Auction House in Border Desert City no longer concealed it, and simply publicly announced the real surname of this news, and then issued a high-profile warning that whoever dares to fight the idea of pills will bear the wrath of the five giants of the mainland. At the same time, it was announced that this divine pill would be auctioned in three months, and who could own these three divine pills would depend on who had the most money.

Undoubtedly, this approach of the Alliance Mall Auction House has played a certain role, and the power of the Big Five (Pharmacist Union, Shangwu Academy, Mercenary Alliance, First Money Bank, and Divine Soldier Family) is all over every corner of the continent, and so far, those who dare to openly oppose the Big Five have died no longer being able to die. Therefore, there is no doubt about the deterrent power of the Big Five on individuals or large and small forces, since the Alliance Mall Auction House issued this high-profile warning, although most people or forces are greedy for these three divine pills, they have to give up, after all, no matter how good the divine pills are, they have to have a life to enjoy them!

The alliance mall is a super large business alliance jointly established by the five giants, and the alliance mall is the five giants, which makes ninety-nine percent of people dare not take this risk. However, there has never been a shortage of ruthless people in this world, and the power of the divine elixir undoubtedly makes everyone salivate, and they don't dare to go against the Big Five, but I can come to the dark. The remaining hundredth of the people are holding this idea, one by one waiting for the opportunity to move, most of them are waiting for the opportunity, and there are also a handful of people surnamed anxious who directly disguise themselves, and sneak into the alliance mall auction house at night to steal, and there are even a few strong and bold people who directly break into the mall auction house to rob.

Although the Alliance Mall can be called the first force in the Snake Shell Continent, and there are many masters stationed in each branch, but these masters are basically here to play soy sauce to be honest, after all, the background of the Alliance Mall is there, and who is so unsightly to make trouble? But today, these soy sauce masters have finally woken up, and no one usually makes trouble, that is because the interests are not worth the risk that people take, once the interests are large to a certain extent, just like these three divine pills now, no matter how terrifying the background is, there are people who dare to risk their lives to fight.

In three days, the Alliance Mall Auction House was visited no less than ten times, although each time it successfully repelled the enemy, and even caught a few guys who dared to commit crimes against the wind, but it still made Wu Zongsheng, the number one master of the Alliance Mall in the border desert city, feel anxious. Because he obviously felt that with the passage of time, every time he attacked, the enemy was stronger than the last one, you must know that he was a sixth-level Martial Emperor's high-level strength, but among the enemies who attacked last time, he actually felt a little threatened. Although he successfully repelled the opponent in the end, Wu Zongsheng still felt tremendous pressure. At this time, the reinforcements of the Alliance Mall have not yet arrived, but the enemy is getting stronger and stronger, and what needs his protection this time is too important, if he can't hold out until the reinforcements arrive, then he is the eternal sinner of the Alliance Mall.

......

Ouyang Wannian didn't bother to care about the situation of the auction house of the Alliance Mall, he is now brushing mercenary tasks with An Ruoni every day, with the strength of him and An Ruoni, brushing up the task is naturally amazingly fast, from the third day after applying for the apprenticeship mercenary, the two of them were officially promoted to one-star mercenaries.

The level distribution of mercenaries is very simple, just apply to become a mercenary, its level is a trainee mercenary, and after completing ten trainee tasks, you will be successfully promoted to a one-star mercenary. After completing ten more one-star tasks, you will be successfully promoted to a two-star mercenary, and so on! The highest level of mercenaries is a seven-star mercenary, and above the seven-star mercenary, there is another level, which is called a god-level mercenary, but this level has not been reached by anyone in the past 100,000 years, so it has basically been ignored.

Ouyang Wannian came to stay here in the border desert city to wait for the auction of the elixir, and secondly, he was more interested in mercenary tasks, so he has been receiving the latest tasks with An Ruoni these days, and completing them as quickly as possible.

Today, the two of them received their sixth one-star mission from the Mercenary Alliance - capturing a first-level shell rat and a second-level demon wolf cub!

Because there are only two of them and they don't form a mercenary group, when they do tasks, they each receive a task and complete it together.

Catching the first-level shell rat and the second-level demon wolf cub is still not a small difficulty for the average one-star mercenary, let's talk about the shell rat first, although this little thing is only a first-level demon beast, it has a characteristic, that is, it is small in size and fast, and it is very difficult to catch. And then there is the second-level demon wolf cub, this task is more lucky, and it also has a lot of risk, after all, everyone knows that the demon wolf is a social animal, and it is not difficult to find the lone second-level demon wolf, but the difficult thing is the lone demon wolf cub.

However, these difficulties were not a problem for the duo of Ouyang Wannian and An Ruoni, and the two of them didn't even bother to prepare, so they got into the carriage and went straight to the Demon Beast Forest......
