Duke lowered his head, looking at the protruding knife point in disbelief.
This official 'mysterious person' with dual identities opened his mouth wide and wanted to call out his 'secret pet', but a big hand covered his mouth, not only blocking the shout that was about to blurt out, but also Pull him back to the carriage.
Vision begins to blur.
But Duke still vaguely saw the 'Night Watchman' who he thought he had successfully deceived took out a box from under the seat.
That is…
bomb? !
The moment the box was opened, Duke's life came to an end.
At this last moment, Duke had infinite doubts in his heart.
In the end, it became one again.
Why is there a box of bombs in the carriage
In fact, there was more than one box of bombs in the carriage.
Instead... three boxes!
Since the K2 grenades were all used up, Jason, who suffers from extreme lack of firepower, has been fidgeting.
Especially when it is confirmed that some monsters and incidents are far from being solved by ordinary bullets and blades, such restlessness becomes a pain in the back.
In order not to worsen his mood, Jason deliberately applied to Bundy for a bomb.
Bundy approved.
The sheriff was also unknowingly influenced by Jason.
Sitting on the box full of bombs, Jason quickly calmed down.
Because, he knows very well, this is the source of his safety.
Just like this moment.
With Duke's death, the 'Hurken' appeared.
A pair of obvious, sharp claws almost dragged on the ground.
The torso and head are long and narrow, with no facial features, no legs, and only a whirlwind spinning under the body.
At this moment, the 'secret pet' who had lost the 'beast trainer' fell into a certain daze.
But Jason wouldn't, setting one of the boxes of bombs on fire.
Then…
Aiming at 'Herken', he threw the whole box over.
boom!
The fire and the shock wave instantly annihilated the 'Herken', and even brought the carriage down to the ground.
But Jason couldn't care less about that.
A familiar scent entered his nostrils.
Jason jumped out of the carriage and ran towards the source of the scent.
Jason, who had experience once, soon found food similar to 'pigeon eggs'.
Picking up the 'pigeon egg' Jason's mouth curled up.
The joy of harvest is always so sweet.
certainly!
That's not all there is to gain.
Jason could not forget the advanced information about the 'night watchman' that Duke said before.
Carefully put the 'pigeon eggs' into the medicine bag, Jason turned and walked towards the carriage. When Jason took out the parchment and searched for the loot, Finch had temporarily untied the horse pulling the carriage. He drove, led the horse to the side, and kept calming the frightened horse.
The prizes are a purse and the walking stick.
The cane was made of solid wood, with a hidden blade, but the opponent didn't have any guns on him.
Obviously, the other party is very confident.
And with a monster-level 'secret pet' like 'Herken', the opponent's confidence is understandable.
only…
Weaknesses are equally obvious!
Strong is the 'secret pet'!
Not the 'Beast Tamer' himself!
If Duke chooses to hide himself and send his 'secret pet' to fight, even with a considerable amount of explosives, Jason knows that he will be in a hard fight!
Even if it is a victory, it must be a tragic victory.
"Each profession on the 'mysterious side' has its corresponding characteristics."
"Only by maximizing one's own characteristics can one be called the 'mysterious side'!"
"otherwise… "
"Even worse than ordinary people!"
Jason counted the wallet containing 11 gold grams and 4 silver grams, and he had a little understanding in his heart.
Almost at the same time, Jason began to remind himself not to give up his 'advantage' at any time, and absolutely not to be as smart as Duke.
Maybe one day in the future, he needs to face a situation like Duke.
However, he will definitely not be as 'calm' as Duke.
Not even such 'confidence'.
You know, such self-confidence is already arrogant.
And the fate of arrogance
It is obvious.
With vigilance, Jason took out the folded parchment.
After unfolding, it is written in pictorial language—
1. The night watchman.
2, [Protection against evil (skillful)].
3. Hunt and kill ten different monsters, and know their characteristics (including but not limited to natural monsters, evil spirits, evil spirits, constructs, and alchemy and potion monsters)
4. Have had at least 3 night battles
…
[Night watchman advanced career information collection...]
[Collection complete!]
[Night watchman's advanced profession 'Night Watchman' is being judged...]
[Night Watchman Inauguration (Completed)]
[Protection against evil (skilled) (completed)]
[Hunting ten different monsters, and familiar characteristics: 610]
[3 night battles (completed)]
[Insufficient conditions, it is judged that the advanced night watchman cannot be completed!]
…
There is no need for Jason to judge whether the information on the parchment is accurate,
The text in front of him gave Jason an affirmative answer.
"Is the advancement of 'Night Watchman' to be 'Night Watchman'?"
Jason muttered to himself, and his eyes began to scan the advanced conditions.
Except for 'hunting ten different monsters and knowing their characteristics', all have been completed.
At this time, Jason finally understood why Tanier and Sir Beta were no strangers to his behavior of collecting monsters.
Obviously, they regarded it as a must for him to advance.
Undoubtedly, this is a good misunderstanding.
Jason would never explain.
Then, Jason instinctively began to count the monsters he 'knew' in his heart.
"I've eaten 'Swagnu's Touch', 'Laugher', 'Quicker', 'Submariner', 'Gtungsten Hound', 'Kemetia', 'Hulken (infant) ’, Kilken Elves (broken) and Kartha Landrunners (young).”
"Among them, 'The Laugher', 'The Stranger', 'The Submariner', 'The Tungsten Hound' and 'Kemetia' are familiar with the characteristics because of the teacher's notes."
"Karsa's ground dragon is because of the explanation of the old jazz servant."
"But the elves of 'Swagnu's Touch', 'Herken' and 'Kirken' don't know."
"'Swagnu's Touch' is special, let's leave it aside for now."
"If I know the detailed information of the two monsters 'Helken' and 'Kirken', I will have eight types."
"That is to say, if I eat... and kill two kinds of monsters, I can meet the 'advanced' conditions!"
Thinking of this, Jason's eyes lit up.
However, soon there was a frown.
Because it is easy to eat monsters, but it is difficult to understand their characteristics.
Unless someone explained it to him.
Or, if you get another notebook like his teacher's, it is possible to quickly complete the advanced conditions.
But it's not an easy task.
Who would tell him this unselfishly
Jason couldn't help shaking his head.
But just before he finished shaking his head, there was a slight abnormal sound in the carriage behind him—
crunch!
crunch!
crunch!
A blood-stained palm slowly poked out.
