Duan looked at the girl's hateful face, felt a pang of pain in his heart, and said lightly: "I didn't come to be a mercenary, I am a mercenary myself. With the blood of the dragon as a guide, let's open the gate of time and space." Blue A dark halo emerged from Ah-Dai's chest, and the mercenary card that had been registered with the Red Hurricanes flew out and landed lightly in his hand. He handed the card to the girl, waiting for her response.
The girl couldn't help being a little surprised when she saw the blue light emanating from Dumb's body. She didn't expect this seemingly down-and-out person to have this ability. After receiving the card, she opened the heavy registration book of the mercenary union and checked it. After a while, the girl seemed to have found Dumb's information, and said in surprise, "Ah! Are you a member of the super mercenary regiment?"
Duan was stunned, and said: "We should be an ordinary third-level mercenary group, how come we become a special level."
The girl said: "This is the record from the General Assembly, there is no mistake. It says that you have completed a special task, and the trade union made an exception to upgrade you to a special mercenary group. They are all upgraded to special-level mercenaries. Ah, what you have accomplished is to retrieve the top-grade magic crystal from the Death Mountain. The reward for this task is very high! If it weren’t for the fact that the task was completed by you and the Moonscar Mercenary Group, maybe It will be promoted to a super mercenary group. After all, few people can complete special missions."
Only then did Ah-Dai realize that Yuehen must have reported himself and Xuanyue when he delivered the task with the best magic crystal. After all, they were the ones who took the task. I don't know what happened to Brother Yuehen and the others. It's been two years since we last saw each other.
After the girl found out that Duan was a special-level mercenary, her tone was obviously a lot more polite, and she asked tentatively, "Do you want to accept the mission?"
Duan woke up from his thoughts, "Oh, I want to take it. If there is any task that can be completed faster, the reward doesn't matter, it's usually fine."
The girl looked at Dumb suspiciously, and said: "Complete it faster? Such tasks are generally low-level, and correspondingly, the rewards are much less. Are you sure? With your current level, you should accept some high-level tasks. It fits."
Dumb now only needs to be able to maintain his travel expenses to the Phantom Forest, and has no desire for money. He nodded and said: "I'm sure, any task is fine, as long as it can be completed quickly."
The girl nodded, pointed to the task board behind her and said, "Then you can choose it yourself. Generally, ordinary tasks are relatively easy to complete, such as sending letters. Since you have been promoted to a special mercenary, the card You have to change it too, you choose the task first, and I will change the card for you." Saying that, he turned and walked to the inside.
Duan looked at the mission board of the mercenary union, looking from bottom to top, there were a lot of missions, but he searched below for a long time, but he couldn't find one that was suitable for him. He gradually looked up, and finally found a task in the first-level task area. This task required the mercenaries to send an item to the City Lord's Mansion. After the City Lord opened the item, it was considered completed. Well, just this task, the reward is enough, and it can save time.
At this time, the girl had already turned back, and Dumb's original card was replaced with a gold card with the logo of the mercenary union engraved on it. When Ah-Dai told the girl about the task she wanted to take, the girl said: "This task was put up not long ago, and it's strange that the reward for the task was paid in advance, a total of fifty gold coins. This task is for you Is it too simple? We also have special tasks here, you can think about it."
Duan shook his head and said, "Just this task. I still have something to do, so I can't waste too much time."
The girl agreed, and quickly registered Dumb, and gave him the items to be delivered and the reward of fifty gold coins.
Walking out of the mercenary union, Ah-Dai found a restaurant nearby, and spent three gold coins to have a big meal. He turned the depression of being treated as a beggar by others into food intake, and he was satisfied after eating enough food for three people. leave. After leaving the restaurant, Ah-Dai thought to himself, the rewards given by others have already been spent, and it is time to do things for them. Picking up the wooden box in his hand and looking up and down, he didn't feel anything special. The wooden box that needs to be delivered is very beautiful in appearance, engraved with the words of auspicious and wishful thinking, and the corners are wrapped with metal, but the weight is very light, and there is no sound inside when it is shaken gently. Although Dumb is a little confused, But I also know that mercenaries can't just disassemble and see the rules of delivering items. Ask passers-by the direction of the city lord's mansion, and go straight.
The mansion of the city lord of Dulu City. Figuete, who is in his early sixties this year, is not only the lord of the city, but also the governor of the entire province of Dulu, who is in charge of the affairs of the province and is a hereditary marquis. Dulu Province is a large province in the Tianjin Empire, and the adjacent Mica Province at the southernmost tip of the empire is a strategically important place. Being able to serve as the governor here shows the trust of the top management of the Tianjin Empire. Today, the grandson and god-granddaughter of his good friend Tierhaus, Governor of the Mica Province, visited him on behalf of Tierhaus and brought many precious gifts, which made him very happy and specially hosted a banquet for him. He and Tierhaus have been friends for decades. When they were young, they were once a pair of powerful upstarts. They both succeeded in inheriting the titles left by their parents, and climbed to today's position with their extraordinary minds. . After the two got older, they rarely saw each other because of their respective responsibilities, but this did not affect the relationship between them. Although Tierhaus was unable to visit him in person due to his busy schedule, he would always send his cronies to visit him. Of course, he would also let his cronies pay a return visit. The two provinces of Mica and Dulu are also formed as a monolith because of their relationship. They have a very large influence in the entire Tianjin Empire. Even the emperor will not easily do anything to these two important provinces. A major awareness mobilization, everything is handled by themselves, Figget and Tierhaus have become the local emperors who dominate the Tianjin Empire, and one-third of the military power of the entire Tianjin Empire is in their hands.
"Grandpa Figate, on behalf of my grandfather, I would like to offer you a toast. I wish you good health and all the best." Tilo, the grandson of Tyrhaus in white, raised his glass and toasted Figate with a smile on his face.
Figuete drank the fine wine in his glass, laughed, and said: "Grandson! You are welcome, I have heard that you are young and promising, and seeing you today really deserves your reputation! You are so young that you have won the favor of the Northern Sword Master and his old man. Appreciation, I became his named disciple. Your grandfather is really blessed! Compared with my few grandchildren who are not good enough, you are much stronger than me who only eat, drink and play all day long."
As soon as Figate mentioned the four characters of Northern Juggernaut, Tiro's eyes suddenly showed reverence, and he said humbly: "Grandpa Figate, I am just a registered disciple of his mentor, and if I am lucky enough to be able to meet him in the future It is my blessing to be officially included! However, how can we juniors compare to you? I heard from my grandfather that you used your own strength to suppress the rebellion in the entire Dulu province. In this position. Compared with you, what is my little achievement? Grandpa said, if he didn’t inherit a higher title than you at the beginning, he would never be able to catch up with your current achievements.”
Tivya, who was sitting next to Tilo, watched her elder brother deal with Figate calmly, and couldn't help showing a faint smile on her pretty face. The purpose of their visit this time is to allow Tiro to get in touch with this feudal official more, to get in touch with each other. Tilo is young and promising, and has already been designated as the direct heir of Tillhouse. These are all things he has to go through. test. Up until now, all his answers have been very tactful.
After hearing Tilo's words, Figgett, who was already a little drunk, suddenly glowed. Who doesn't want to be praised for his heroic past? He laughed and said, "Did Tierhaus really say that? Thanks to this old guy who still remembers what happened more than 20 years ago, I am already old, and time is not forgiving! From now on, it will be your young people's world."
At this moment, the servant walked up to Figate and said in a low voice: "My lord, there is a man who claims to be a mercenary outside and said that he was entrusted to bring you a gift."
Figuete was happily chatting with Tiro, and he was naturally unhappy when he was suddenly interrupted. He has never had a good impression of the profession of mercenaries. He always thinks that those people are just low-level civilians, and said impatiently: "No Do you have any guests here? Just ask him to leave the gift. Do I have to deal with this kind of thing myself?"
The servant panicked and said: "But he insisted on seeing you, saying that he must hand over the things to you. We chased him away several times but failed to drive him away. He is a bit skilled, and he knocked down several guards guarding the gate. "
Figuete snorted, and said: "You dare to come to me and make trouble, you are not small! Well, then you can bring him in and let him wait at the door. I want to see, this mercenary What's the matter."
The servant took the order, and after a while, he led a tall young man with black hair and black eyes to the outside of the hall. The young man's simple clothes were damaged in many places, and he looked very downcast. He held a wooden box in his hand, Although he looked downcast, there was an aura about him that no one dared to ignore, and a pair of bright black eyes shone with a faint brilliance. Tilo and Tivya glanced at each other, isn't this the beggar they donated to not long ago? Why did you become a mercenary again? Dare to come to the city lord's mansion to provoke.
Figuete is also looking at the down-and-out young man. He can firmly hold the position of governor of Dulu province. Naturally, he has a good eye for knowing people. Although this young man is dressed in ordinary clothes, the temperament exuding from his body tells He, this is not an ordinary young man, his heart moved, he waved to the servant, motioning him to bring the young man in.
Duan spent a long time outside the door before convincing the servant to inform him. When he walked to the door of the hall, he recognized at a glance that the girl sitting at the table in the hall was the girl who gave him alms and made him feel familiar. With a shock in his heart, the servant had already led him into the hall. The dilapidation on Dumb's body was in stark contrast to the luxury in the hall. Except for Figget and Tiffya, the girl in white, everyone showed disgust.
Figget put down the wine glass in his hand, looked Dumb up and down a few times, and said, "Why do you have to hand things over to me yourself?"
Duan glanced at the Tilo brothers and sisters, and said, "I am a mercenary, and the mission I have received requires me to do this. This is a gift, please accept it." As he spoke, he handed over the wooden box.
The servant brought the wooden box to Figgate, who smiled slightly and said, "I want to see what this gift is. Open it."
The servant responded, lifted the wooden box, and with a puff, a puff of pink smoke came out of the wooden box, carrying a strong sweet fragrance. The servant who opened the box had no time to react, and subconsciously inhaled a mouthful of mist. His mind was dizzy, and he fell to the ground suddenly. Figget screamed inwardly, he quickly held his breath, and slapped his hand casually, a burst of light blue fighting spirit shot out from his palm, blowing away the pink mist. Although he reacted quickly, he still inhaled a trace of poisonous mist, and a feeling of drowsiness suddenly shocked him.
Seeing such a scene, Ah-Dai was startled, and the poisonous mist scattered by Figate happened to float in his direction, and the genuine energy spread all over Ah-Dai's body in an instant, isolating the pink mist.
Facing the sudden change, Tilo knew clearly that this was the time for him to perform. With a snarl, he flew up, circled his hands in the air, and the red battle energy surging with huge energy suddenly burst out, and the pink poisonous mist was caught by him. After a circle, it suddenly converged, unable to spread out. He wrapped the shrunken poisonous mist with his fighting spirit, and slapped the ground lightly. The shrunken poisonous mist immediately sank below the ground under the action of his fighting spirit, and could no longer disperse and hurt people.
Figget reluctantly urged the fighting spirit in his body to control the inhaled poisonous mist, pointed at Dumb and said, "Grab him, don't let him run away."
It wasn't until now that Duan finally realized that this was a trap at all. The person who entrusted the mercenary union to perform the task simply wanted to use the poisonous fog to harm the Lord of Dulu City, but he himself became a victim. At the same time he reacted, Tiro had already dealt with the poisonous mist. Even if Figuet didn't explain, he knew what to do. He floated up and punched Duan in the chest.
The red grudge put tremendous pressure on Ah-Dai, and the surrounding air seemed to become scorching hot. Ah-Dai stood with his right palm in front of his chest, blocking Tilo's fist. There was a look of disdain at the corner of Tilo's mouth, his body trembled strangely in the air, and the fist that was attacking Duan's chest turned into attacking his shoulder.
Tilo's change of move was very fast, and there was no time for Dumb to react. When Dumb found out that he had changed his move, his fist had already reached less than three inches in front of his shoulder. In desperation, Ah-Dai shrugged his shoulders and shrunk his back. Relying on the feeling of his mind, his body turned ninety degrees in the Lightning Class. The scorching red grudge almost slid past his shoulders, but burned Ah-Dai's already damaged clothes. A big hole, the remaining energy of the scorching grudge was isolated by the armor of the giant spirit snake, and it did not hurt Ah-Dai.
Tilo was too confident in his attack. At this time, the move was too old to be retracted, and his whole body was exposed, and half of his body was given to Dumb. Duan knew that all this was a misunderstanding, so naturally he would not hurt him, so he lightly pressed Tilo's shoulder with his right palm, retracted his anger, and sent Tilo's body out. Tilo felt that he was surrounded by a pure fighting spirit, and he couldn't break free. When the fighting spirit disappeared, he found that he had returned to Tiffya's side. It was the first time that Tilo had encountered such a powerful opponent since he became a teacher. Although he knew that the opponent was merciless, he was still furious. He was so proud that he would not allow himself to fail. Especially, his sweetheart and related My future Figuet is still by my side, so I don't allow him to fail even more. With an angry shout, he rushed out again, countless palm shadows were transformed into his hands, and the red fighting spirit attacked Duan overwhelmingly.
At this time, Figget's guards had also attacked Ah-Dai's side, and eight masters and eight weapons concentrated on Ah-Dai's body at the same time. Dumb had no chance to explain at all, the huge pressure made him exert his full potential, his whole body centered on his left foot, and he spun quickly, and he flicked the eight weapons with his fingers respectively, although Figuet's eight The skills of the personal guards are not low, but they are so fragile when they encounter Dumb's fighting spirit approaching the ninth level. Everyone feels that their chest is like a giant hammer, and their bodies fly up with the surging fighting spirit. All the weapons flew out of their hands, and it took almost an instant for Dumb to repel them.
Tiro's second attack had arrived at this time. Being attacked by the opponent one after another, although it was a misunderstanding, it still made Ah-Dai's anger secretly rise, and he shouted, and the yellow-green grudge light instantly formed a solid shield centered on his right hand. The sound of thumping kept ringing out. Although Tiro's attack seemed gorgeous and powerful, it seemed so flashy compared to Duan's unpretentious and transforming shield. All the attacks couldn't shake the shield's defense at all, and it turned into a little bit of vindictiveness and light rain flying in the air. With a flick of his right hand, Tilo had already been knocked out. This time he used a little force, and Tilo felt that he was hit The strand was thrown out vigorously, and with a bang, it had already hit the wall of the hall heavily. Dumb didn't find a gap in the explanation until now, and hurriedly shouted: "Don't do it, it's a misunderstanding." While talking, his body turned into a phantom and flew to Figate's side like lightning. No one has time to stop it. At this time, Figget was struggling with the poisonous fog, and he had no power to resist. Dumb pressed Figate's shoulder with his palm, and the surge of true energy rushed into his meridians immediately. Figate relied on his true energy to push the poisonous mist out of his inner organs, and was not hurt by the poisonous mist. At this time, a thick and gentle energy blended into his battle energy, which was full of vitality. He was really angry, and with the help of Dumb, he finally managed to force the poisonous mist out. With a bang, he spewed out a mouthful of black blood, and he felt much more comfortable immediately.
The surrounding guards had already surrounded him again, but seeing that Figget was in Dumb's hands, they were afraid to step forward.
Figget raised his hand weakly, and said, "Stop it all." He looked up at Ah-Dai, smiled gratefully, and said, "Thank you, little brother. What's going on?" Ah-Dai forced him out. Poison Wu's behavior has clearly told him that Ah-Dai was not the one who came to harm him, otherwise, Ah-Dai rushed in front of him just now, and was fully capable of taking his life instead of helping him force poison.
Dumb apologized: "I'm sorry, Lord City Master, I don't know what's going on. After I took this task from the mercenary union, I sent the things to you directly. Who knew that this would happen."
Tiro came over with the support of Tiffya, and he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with no demeanor, looked at Dumb with hatred, and said: "It must be your fault, Grandpa Figate, kill him .”
Figuet glanced at Tilo and said: "Shisun, don't be impulsive. This matter is a bit strange. I'm afraid it's not as simple as it seems on the surface. This little brother is very skilled. If he wants to assassinate me, There is no need to poison at all, besides, it is not a serious poison, it is just a thousand days drunk that makes people sleepy, take a look." He pointed to the unconscious servant who fell on the ground.
"Wow, Grandpa, you've seen through all of this, you're so amazing." Following the sound of a silver bell, a blue figure ran in. Duan looked intently, only to see that it was a little girl who came in. She was a little shorter than Tiffya, but her appearance was not inferior. With a sly smile on her face, she bounced to Figate's side.
Tilo couldn't help being stunned when he saw this beautiful girl, Figget frowned and said, "Rongrong, is it your fault?"
The girl stuck out her tongue, pretending to be aggrieved, and said, "What's the matter with you? They see that you are so tired from busy work all day long, so they want you to have a good sleep. They are just joking with you. They understand." It's medicine, Qiantianzui won't hurt you. Grandpa, you love Rongrong the most, and you won't be angry, right?"
Dumb stared at the girl dumbfounded, and murmured: "Is it the task you left in the mercenary union?"
Rongrong glared at Dumb, and said dissatisfiedly: "It's me, how is it? You are so stupid, you have ruined other people's plans. If you leave the things to grandpa, you still don't hurry up, and you will be seen through."
Figget looked at his only granddaughter with both a laugh and a smile, and said helplessly, "Rongrong, you are too bold to poison grandpa. See if I won't let your father spank your ass."
Rongrong made a face at Figuet, put her arms around his neck, kissed him hard on the face, and said with a smile: "Grandpa will definitely not report on Rongrong, are you willing to see Rongrong get beaten?" ?”
Figuete sighed, and said: "I really can't do anything about you girl. You are still so presumptuous when you have a guest today, aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Rong Rong looked at Ti Luo, snorted at him, and said, "Do you dare to laugh at me?"
Tilo looked at Rongrong's pretty appearance, and said repeatedly: "Don't dare, dare not, it turns out to be Miss Sun, I'm being polite to Tilo."
Duan asked suddenly: "Miss Rongrong, what if the mercenary who took over the mission opened your wooden box out of curiosity?"
Rongrong said casually: "Then it's bad luck for him, who told him not to abide by the rules of mercenaries, and he can't die if he gets drunk for a thousand days, and he can only sleep for more than ten days at most."
Dumb sighed secretly, this noble child is indeed beyond his comprehension, although she also likes to play pranks, Yueyue is much better than her. At least I won't make fun of other people's health. There is no place for him to stay here anymore, he saluted Figate slightly, and said: "My lord, since it was a misunderstanding, then I will leave." After speaking, he turned his head and walked out. "Wait a minute." Figuet called Dumb, looked at him with admiration and said, "Young man, I appreciate your martial arts very much. Are you interested in coming to me to do things?" If a martial artist with such profound skills as Dui was discovered by him, there is no reason to let him go.
Dumb shook his head lightly, and said, "No, thank you for your kindness. I am used to being free and don't like being restrained." After finishing speaking, he continued to walk outside. When passing by Tiro, he heard clearly Tilo said to the sound transmission: "Boy, remember what happened today, and I will settle the score with you." Duan didn't stop because of his words, thinking, are there still few people who want to kill me? It's nothing if you have one more? Although Tilo is not weak in skill, he has not been seen by Dumb.
As soon as Duan walked to the door, Figate's voice came out again, "Young man, may I know your name?"
Ah-Dai urged the vitality in his body, and floated up, leaving his faint voice in the air, "My name is Ah-Dai."
Hearing Ah-Dai's answer before leaving, Rong Rong burst out laughing, and said, "No wonder he is so dumb. His original name is Ah-Dai. This person is quite interesting."
Contrary to Rongrong's reaction, Tifuya's whole body was shaken after hearing Duan's words, and the blood on her ruddy pretty face faded instantly. Dumb, he is brother Dumb, no wonder she felt familiar, it turned out that he was I have been looking for Dumb unsuccessfully, and he has learned such advanced kung fu, Brother Dumb, so you are still alive.
Tiffya is the girl in the small town of Nino. She returned to the Governor's Mansion with the wife of the Governor of Mica Province Tierhaus. Because of her cleverness and cuteness, both the Governor and the Governor's wife loved her very much, He adopted her as his granddaughter and changed her name to Tiffya. Although she has changed from a thief to an enviable nobleman, she will never forget the dumb who loved her when she was young. She always remembers the promise she made to dumb. Three years ago, when she was sixteen years old, she tried everything possible to win With the consent of the governor's wife, she took people back to Nino City to look for Dumb. During the search, she finally found Uncle Li, but Uncle Li told her that Duan died shortly after she left. Hearing the news of Ah-Dai's death, the girl was heartbroken. After a long time, she gradually recovered. It was also at that time that Tilo, the governor's grandson, fell in love with the pretty girl. In the constant pursuit, the girl finally couldn't bear his begging and became his girlfriend. Although the governor and the governor's wife have always loved the girl very much, her background is not good after all. Although they were allowed to interact, they never mentioned the matter of getting them married. Today, she and Tilo came to Dulu City to visit Figate. When she saw Dumb like a beggar in the city, she had a very friendly feeling, but as her age changed, Dumb couldn't recognize her , she also couldn't recognize the tall and burly dumb anymore. Unexpectedly, this young man who was given alms by him was Dumb who had been separated for more than eight years.
Tilo didn't notice the change in Tiffya's expression, and his mind was on the pretty Rongrong. Although he also liked Tiffya, he was so proud that he always felt that Tiffya's background was not worthy of her. For himself, Rong Rong, who is not inferior to Tiffya in appearance and has a noble background, has already made his heart beat, this is his best choice!
Figget looked at the back of Duan leaving, and murmured: "This kid's martial arts is so high that I have never seen it in my life! It's not easy to have such an achievement at such a young age, but unfortunately I can't use it for me."
Tilo snorted coldly, and said: "I was afraid of killing him just now, so I didn't use the master's unique skills, otherwise, hum."
Figuet glanced at Tiro and thought, although this son is a disciple of the Northern Sword Master, he is too conceited and narrow-minded, so he may not be able to become a big man, but considering his relationship with the Governor of Mica Province Tyrhaus, he smiled. Said: "Of course, how can a disciple of the Northern Sword Master be compared to a commoner like him."
After hearing Figuet's words, Rongrong said to Tiluo in surprise: "So you are a disciple of the northern sword master! I heard that sword master is the highest title for warriors on the mainland."
Tilo said proudly: "Of course, my teacher, the old man has the ability to reach the heavens and the earth."
Rongrong laughed and said, "It's a pity, you haven't learned much from your teacher! You can't even beat that stupid mercenary."
Anger flashed in Tilo's eyes, but when he saw Rongrong's charming smile, he held back and said bitterly, "One day, I will let that kid know how good I am." He couldn't get angry when facing the beautiful woman, But the resentment towards Dumb in his heart deepened.
Rongrong looked at Tifuya, gasped in surprise, and said, "Sister, why do you have such a bad face! Did you also get drunk just now? I have an antidote here, would you like to take one?"
Tiffya didn't even hear their conversation before, and her mind was completely on Dumb who had left. When Rongrong asked her, she shook her head and said, "Thank you, I am not poisoned, but I am not feeling well. That's all. Grandpa Figate, I'm sorry, I want to go to rest first."
Figuet asked with concern: "Is it uncomfortable? Let me ask the doctor to help you."
Tiffya shook her head and said, "Thank you, I don't think so, maybe I'm tired from the journey, and I'll be fine after a rest."
Figuete apologized: "It's all the fault of Rong Rong, who frightened you, Tilo! Just take good care of your sister for me."
