This is not because Ryan has a strong desire for power and has a dominant position invisibly, but because on this continent, people usually believe in the strong unconditionally, and Ryan's performance brings the greatest impact to Vivian. The feeling is that he is omnipotent. For ordinary adventurers, the level 7 Scorpion Lion is the incarnation of death, but Ryan raises his hand and solves it. The notorious Broken Dagger mercenary group of 8 people, Vivian She actually didn't know how Ryan solved them. What made her even more confused was that she was not awakened by the fighting at all while she was sleeping. This meant that Ryan took no effort to deal with the entire Broken Dagger mercenary group.
With such a powerful person as his companion, and his personality is very humble, he is also very kind in dealing with others, and he is very easy to get along with, so Ryan's companions will unknowingly be infected by Ryan's personality charm and gradually develop a liking for him. It creates a sense of trust, and once a person feels this way about a person, they will naturally regard him as their leader in their heart.
Vivian took Ryan into the shop. They came here specifically at noon, so there were basically no customers in the shop. There were only two young waiters around 20 years old, dozing against the corner. The sound of Wei An's footsteps striding into the shop suddenly woke up the two waiters. When they saw a customer coming to the door, the young waiter immediately came to greet them.
Vivian seemed to be very good at dealing with these people. She didn't wait for the other party to speak, and said directly: "The owner of your shop once entrusted me with something. Now that the matter is done, we are here to handle the matter."
"Ah, you must be those adventurers. Our boss has mentioned it many times, and it was done so quickly. It's a coincidence that you came. Our boss just came back this morning, and he is probably resting in the backyard now." A waiter said quickly: "Please come with me, I will take you there."
When Ryan and Vivian came to a slightly fat middle-aged man, the owner of the shop immediately jumped up from his chair. He stared at Vivian with his eyes, and his tone was tense. He looked forward to saying to her, "You really hunted a manticore, and you really got its magic core."
Without saying anything, Vivian took out a small bag from her body and threw it to the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man took the small bag with a very nervous expression and quickly untied the rope that tied the bag. Ryan was there. From the side, he could clearly see that this middle-aged man's hands were trembling. It seemed that the magic core of the scorpion lion beast was very important to him.
A question arises in Ryan's heart. Generally speaking, the magic core of the scorpion lion belongs to the earth system. There are relatively few magicians in this system, and magic is mainly defensive. What does the middle-aged man in front of him think? It doesn't look like a magician. What does he want with this magic core
The middle-aged man didn't know the doubts in Ryan's heart. He opened the rope that tied the mouth of the bag and slowly touched the magic core of the poisonous manticore beast from the inside. After repeatedly identifying it many times, he finally finally After confirming that the small piece of light green magic core in his hand was indeed not forged by Vivian, his fat and bulging face was suddenly filled with a smile.
"Here, here is your reward." The middle-aged man took out four money bags from the drawer of the table and threw them on the table in front of Vivian: "Just click on them."
Vivian beamed and began to count the gold coins in front of her. The middle-aged man took out a very delicate small wooden box and put the manticore's magic core into it. Then he put the wooden box away. When Ryan saw this The middle-aged man never asked about the other parts of the venomous scorpion beast, such as the fur, and his doubts increased greatly, because from the perspective of a businessman's profit, more than 10,000 gold coins are enough to buy a scorpion lion elsewhere. There is no need to put a bounty on the lion's better level 7 magic core. If money is calculated, the manticore's fur can easily be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins, and the finished product is like the protective suit on Vivian's body. A, if there is an auction, it can easily go up to 100,000 gold coins. This is because Ryan used a pseudonym. If he clearly stated that this was made using Victor's magic circle superposition technology, I'm afraid 300,000 gold coins would be The lowest bottom line,
But this middle-aged man is far more interested in magic core than others. This kind of abnormal thing made Ryan start to think about it. Maybe it was because of what happened to Catherine. Ryan is now very aware of the abnormal little things around him. Shang Xin, while Vivian was counting the gold coins one by one, Ryan repeatedly thought about the various reasons that affected the middle-aged man's behavior, and suddenly an idea poured into his mind,
"Could it be that this middle-aged man has the same intention as the original Flanner? He also participated in the selection of the successor to the Dorok Business Alliance. I wonder which mission he is on." Ryan can still understand clearly now Recalling what Flanner said to him and Alan Duo: "When you are doing something, and the whole process goes so smoothly, so smoothly that you find it incredible, thinking that you have been favored by the goddess of luck. When you are favored, that is when you have completely stepped into your opponent's trap and are about to receive a fatal blow from your opponent."
Ryan saw the smug look on this middle-aged man's face, which was almost the same as what Flanner had described back then. He really couldn't bear to have another person take the same path that Flanner had. After all, not everyone would. A friend like Ryan never leaves behind in times of trouble, so Ryan opened his mouth to wake up the middle-aged man and said, "This is the first mission."
"The fourth one." The middle-aged man was still immersed in the joy of completing the task and replied casually: "I have two full years for the next task. It seems that it will enter the next round... Ah, who are you? How come? Might know the secret.”
Ryan shook his head slightly and signaled the middle-aged man to stop talking. Then he whispered to the middle-aged man: "Let me give you a piece of advice. It can be regarded as an extra service for your pile of gold coins. There are no regulations in the whole process." Competitors can't contact each other, so completing five tasks doesn't mean anything. The key is not knowing when the dagger will be stabbed in the back."
"Ah." The middle-aged man immediately became stunned after hearing Ryan's words, as if he was under the "petrification" magic, and Ryan grabbed Vivian who was counting the gold coins and pulled her out directly.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Vivian was caught off guard, and her body was involuntarily pulled out by Ryan. She hurriedly threw the money bag full of gold coins into the storage pocket that Ryan gave her, and asked repeatedly: "I haven't finished counting yet."
"You are such a little money addict." Ryan shook his head helplessly and said to Vivian: "This is only more than 10,000. If I give you hundreds of thousands at a time, then you won't sleep tonight."
"Hmph, this is the first time that someone has earned so many gold coins in just one task." Vivian didn't want to be misunderstood by Ryan, so she made some distinctions, but by this time Ryan had already pulled her out of the house. Shop, came to the street, Vivian also knew not to say more about these things on this occasion, so she kept her mouth shut.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came from beside Vivian: "Ah, I finally found you."
