The Nightmare Forest on the border of the Mia Empire is a paradise for mercenaries and adventurers. For generations, monsters have appeared here. It is both dangerous and full of opportunities. It is rich in resources. It is also said that this is the entrance of the elves. , It is not known whether it is true or not. Relying on such a unique geographical environment, many towns have developed next to the Nightmare Forest for travelers to live in.
The small town of Siwa is the largest and oldest among them. It is said that its existence can even be traced back to the last era.
At this time, it was midsummer, and the weather was so hot that even the dogs were too lazy to breathe. A black-haired boy stepped into the gate of the Siwa Town Mercenary Union under the scorching sunlight. The collar on his chest was torn a little, revealing With a white chest and a small clavicle, a bead of sweat on his neck could not resist the gravity of the earth and slowly slide down.
Once he stepped into the mercenary guild with the natural tempering circle, the young man finally took a breath. He fanned the fan with his hand, and wiped away the sweat that was reluctant to fall before walking to the counter.
The staff at the registration office noticed the boy from the moment he stepped into the union. Unlike most rude mercenaries, the boy was about fifteen or sixteen years old. Domineering, only makes people feel friendly when he smiles.
Emily, who was in charge of the registration, became obsessed for a while, and then she came to her senses. Such a mercenary should be a young master to experience the society. It is not something that a small registrar like her can think about, so she shook her head. , showing a gentle professional smile, "What can this gentleman do for you?"
The teenager lowered his head and thought for a while, then took out a silver badge and handed it to Emily, "Miss Registrar, I want to ask if there is a mission to capture unicorn cubs recently, if so, please allow me Next."
Emily looked at the silver badge, and even the last thought was completely restrained, and said solemnly, "Please wait a moment, I will help you to check, oh yes, there is indeed a task to capture the cubs, Are you sure you want to pick up?"
The young man nodded.
Seeing this, Emily also took the silver badge and started to register, "Kino, a mid-level first-class mercenary, accepts the task of capturing unicorn cubs for ten days."
After registration, the badge was returned to the boy named Chino.
Kino put away the badge and was about to leave when suddenly there was a commotion in the hall. He looked in the corner and saw that it was a group of mercenaries who were arguing about something.
Out of curiosity, Kino stopped to take a look at the excitement. He was also bored after being isolated from the world for more than three years.
Most of the guys who are mercenaries are tall and big, surrounded by three floors and three floors, and they can't see what's going on inside.
From the noise of their gossip, it seemed like an ugly monster had stolen something from someone.
Kino jumped on the spot twice, over the heads of the crowd, barely seeing someone surrounded, the mercenaries shoving and insulting him, but no one dared to actually do it in the guild.
The red patches on the man's left face were really scary at first glance, no wonder he was called ugly.
"Ugly" was pushed and shoved, his head bowed slightly, and he didn't say a word, like a silent resistance.
Until the mercenary who claimed to have stolen something impatiently reached out to grab the "ugly" hair and forced him to look up, but was stopped by the other hand. This hand was handsome and slender, with distinct knuckles and finger pulps Slightly cocooned, it looks completely different from its owner.
That's the "ugly" hand.
"Ugly" finally raised his head, and at that moment Kino just jumped up and met his gaze.
His eyes were cold and deep, calm and terrifying for no reason, he moved away as soon as he looked at him, and moved to the mercenary who was looking for trouble.
"I didn't steal anything from you."
The mercenary who was stopped was so embarrassed that he, a burly man, was stopped by such an ordinary physique. country.
However, he was not able to teach this ugly monster a lesson. The ugly monster was quite flexible in dodging all his attacks and seemed to be able to do it with ease. The eyes of the big man were not the eyes or the nose, and the whole person was about to smoke.
Everyone around was stunned, we were wrong, we were really wrong, we only knew that he was ugly, but we forgot that no matter how ugly he was, he was also a mercenary.
So someone stretched out his hand and grabbed the burly man, motioning him to take it as soon as he saw it, so that he wouldn't be able to get off the stage in the end.
The big man is not an idiot, he also thought that the strength of this ugly monster is far superior to him, but because of his face, he is not good to retreat like this.
At the time of the dilemma, someone came to the rescue. Emily found that there was a tendency to fight here, and quickly trotted over and scolded, "You guys are so brave, you dare to make trouble in the union hall, and you don't want 10% of your contribution points. no!"
Seeing this onlooker, the faces of the troublemakers changed, and they all dispersed.
In the end, there was only one ugly monster left, and Emily became angry when she saw him, "And you, you have been in our Siwa town for a few days, and you are making trouble every day. Do you know what it means to be a low-key person!"
Chino didn't know what to say. Although he didn't know if this person really stole something, it was more likely that others would find fault with him because he didn't like him. He had seen this kind of thing a lot before. Ye Sacheng, he and Xi Wei are both young, and they are also being made difficult by people in different ways every day. Fortunately, Nami has been helping, and life is not too sad.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help feeling a little pity for the same disease, and interrupted Emily, "I prove that he really didn't steal the wallet, those people did it on purpose."
As soon as Emily saw it was him, she believed it a little in her heart, and then she thought that the troublemakers were not good people, so she almost believed it all, so she mumbled a few words, "Be careful next time."
In fact, Chino didn't know anything at all, and he was a little guilty after perjury, but his intuition strongly believed that this ugly monster was definitely not a thief. He always felt that people with such eyes should be disdainful to be a thief.
Ugly finally gave Kino another look - there was neither gratitude nor grievance in his eyes, just as calm as before, and then he left the mercenary union without even saying thank you.
Chino was silent for a while, but he seemed to think that this was just right, and he couldn't understand where his strange feeling came from, so he shook his head and forgot the episode.
This time, he has a mission, that is, to strive to stay by the side of his protagonist Xi Wei again, and continue to be a great and unknown savior!
For the reunion after more than three years, he had planned it early in the morning. This town of Siwa is the first stop of Xiwei's experience. At that time, there will be a huge treasure house in the nearby Nightmare Forest, and the reason is that someone picked it up. During the mission of catching unicorn cubs, a sixth-level beast was angered, and the beast got angry and broke the defensive magic circle of the treasure house, and Xi Wei got the greatest benefit from it.
So here comes the question. According to the inertia of the plot, Xi Wei will definitely appear here, but Siwa Town is so big, it is easier said than done to find someone.
Sad person.
There is nothing to do for a while, anyway, on the last day, we will naturally see it.
He went through the plot in his mind, confirmed a few details, and ensured that there were no mistakes. He even thought about several ways to appear in front of his protagonist.
After comforting himself, Chino decided to go around the town. He was not familiar with Siwa Town, and he had no purpose in wandering.
Suddenly, a weak moan came from the depths of the alley. It was a woman's voice. Chino's spirit froze, and he walked in the direction of the voice. It was noon at this time, and with an inexplicable tension, he felt It was a little hot, so I ripped off the collar a bit.
According to his original habit, and Xi Wei's childhood education, he should never meddle in his own business. This voice sounded like a troublesome reminder, but he had a special desire to go, as if he would miss something if he didn't go.
In the midst of such a contradiction, Kino involuntarily walked over there.
The moaning got closer and closer, and after turning a corner, everything unfolded in front of her. An ethereal and beautiful woman lay disheveled on the ground, her pale face was soaked with sweat, and the painful moans seemed to have no strength. And getting lower.
However, this beautiful woman was a pregnant woman, and her belly was bulging high, apparently about to give birth.
But there was only a young man beside her. The young man held a sharp knife in his hand. His hand was very stable.
As soon as Kino turned around, he saw such an explosive scene, and subconsciously shouted, "Stop!"
But the person holding the knife didn't seem to hear it at all. The knife in his hand kept on piercing the pregnant woman's stomach steadily and cut her abdomen open. The red blood donation splashed on his face and the patch almost integrated.
The pregnant woman let out a scream of pain.
There is no anesthesia in this era, so the pain of such a caesarean can be imagined.
Kino's heart skipped a beat when he saw it, and just as he was about to step forward to stop it, the young man who cut the knife finally raised his head, and the red patches on his left cheek were impressively visible.
