The city of Wytz in the Principality of Pompeii is one of the cities on the continent of Osiris closest to the Dreaming Forest. As a trading hub connecting the continent of Seth and Osiris, the bustling city of Wytz is very popular among mercenaries.
It took Zhang Xiao more than a month to walk out of the Dreaming Forest, which was quite a few days slower than an ordinary caravan. For more than a month, Zhang Xiao walked while thinking about his future.
He has reached the fourth level of the'Heavenly Demon Jue'. If he just finds a place to practice continuously, it may take more than a hundred years for him to be able to cure the calamity, but can he safely cure the calamity with his own hands? Zhang Xiao's answer to himself is no. In his heart, this is almost unrealistic. The scene of the master's retribution has given him too much excitement. He doesn't think that he will be as strong as the master at that time, enough to be able to succeed by relying on his own strength. Robbery.
Do you still need to practice? Zhang Xiao's answer to himself is still yes. What can I do if I don’t practice? I have already embarked on this path of no return. I must keep going. Now it’s impossible to look back. Even if he doesn’t practice now, the "Natural Demon Qi" in his body will still automatically disappear. Stopped operation absorbs energy, but this speed is very slow. Besides, there is still a heart demon, when the heart demon has enough power, and he can't suppress him, then he will be replaced by the heart demon and disappear completely.
Thinking that his body would be controlled by the heart demon, Zhang Xiao thought of a scene: in a sea of corpse mountains and blood, at that time, he had a faint face, standing on the pile of corpses with cold eyes, still scratching one hand. There was a corpse that had just died and was no longer a human. The body controlled by the heart demon was full of blood that did not belong to him, and his face was full of tyrannical expressions. The sky is densely covered with dark clouds, and the surrounding vegetation is bleak, endless sadness.
No, you can never become the devil! Zhang Xiao screamed in his heart, it was really terrible.
Before leaving the Dream Forest, Zhang Xiao had already thought about it. Now he has to travel around the world in order to find the materials for refining magic weapons. When I reach the fifth floor of the'Tian Demon Jue', I will find a place to refine my own magic weapon. Not only will I have a greater grasp when saving the calamity, but before that, I can also slow down the growth of the inner demon, and wait for my strength to be sufficient. Now, you can deal with the demons.
But where should I find it now? Walking through the hustle and bustle of the crowds on the streets of Witz City, Zhang Xiao also felt at a loss and disorder for a while.
Looking at the mercenary guild in front of him, the tallest building in the city, Zhang Xiao suddenly thought of Bart and his party. It might be a good choice for mercenaries to go north and south, even if they can travel around and earn a little money. Zhang Xiao, in modern society, still cares about the utility of money. Although he does not need to eat, drink or sleep now, he can always be prepared for some money, not to mention that the materials for the refining tools can also be obtained by buying and selling. .
Zhang Xiao, who had made up his mind, raised his foot and walked to the stone steps in front of the mercenary union.
"Mary, you are so beautiful today!" Bart, who was teasing with the beautiful waitress while drinking strong tequila, was sitting in the bar in the mercenary guild and enjoying himself comfortably.
"Haha! Captain Bart, why do you have time to drink here today? The last mission was a good harvest, right?" Mary was wearing blue and white overalls, flying like a light butterfly in the bar.
"Haha! Yeah. Although there was some trouble on the way back, there were unexpected gains!" Regarding the accidents on the way back, Bart, as a mercenary, didn't mind the trouble as long as there was a return. Squinting his eyes and taking a sip of tequila, Bart leaned back in his chair and enjoyed the throat irritation caused by the strong alcohol.
"Oh? Really? Can you tell me something?" Mary asked with great interest.
"Haha! Good!" The mercenaries are also happy to tell people about the excitement and rewards during the mission. Bart wiped the wine stains on the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, and began to talk about the various experiences he had experienced during the western mission.
"! I heard a bang above my head, and countless boulders and mud fell from the sky. You know we were standing in a group of colorful mushrooms at the time. If this falls, I don't think you need to ask me. Bart took another sip of wine to moisturize his throat, and continued preaching: "Just then, I saw it!" Bart, who was talking about this, suddenly looked at the door of the Mercenary Guild and his eyes widened and he couldn't speak anymore.
"What do you see? What do you see?" Mary urged Bart to continue with her eyes wide open.
"Hurry up, Bart, what's next?" The other mercenaries in the bar also thought Bart was selling them, and they all roared.
Bart looked at the figure walking towards the mercenary counter as if he hadn't heard it. The figure that just walked in is really familiar. He has black hair, fair skin, short stature, and thin body. The most important thing is the face that has always been expressionless and the set of servants he wears. Military uniform. That suit was his own. The man's dress was obviously not well-fitted, and his wide sleeves and trousers were pulled up several times by him.
how is this possible? He actually walked out of the dream forest alone, how is this possible? Even the Great Mage and the Golden Warrior couldn't walk through the crisis-ridden forest alone. He even walked out without taking anything. This is incredible. Bart's head is now in a crash state, just staring blankly at the thin figure.
"Do you need any service?" The receptionist behind the counter was beautiful and lovely.
"I want to be a mercenary!" Zhang Xiao's words were still so simple and direct.
"Please pay a registration fee of one silver coin!"
"!" Zhang laughed in a daze, yes, he didn't expect that this would also require money. But now he doesn't even have a copper plate on his body, which makes him a little embarrassed for a while. At this moment, he felt someone approaching him behind him, and a wind hit his shoulders. Zhang Xiao shrank his shoulders and avoided the attack. Such an attack was weak and weak, and it was not a threat at all, but Zhang Xiao still Be careful.
Bart was standing behind Zhang Xiao and rubbing his hands awkwardly. He just wanted to pat Zhang Xiao on the shoulder to say hello to him. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xiao was so alert and made him pat him for a moment.
"I'll pay for his registration fee!" Bart has guessed why this kid was so embarrassed just now.
Zhang Xiao looked at the middle-aged man with a big beard in doubt, Bart explained with a slight smile: "We can sell that wolf skin for a good price, not to mention that the wind wolf crystal core is more than worth a set of clothes. , Now it's a supply for you. Haha!"
When Zhang Xiao heard him say this, he no longer declined, not to mention that he really couldn't pay the money now.
"Excuse me, what is your occupation?" The voice of the receptionist at the counter was still as sweet as ever.
