York Town is located in the southwest of Night Song Forest, in the middle of the Eastern Continent. To the south is the vast and fertile blue water plain that humans rely on most in the Eastern Continent.
Most of the townspeople in York Town make a living by farming and hunting. During the busy farming season, they will be diligent in farming. During the off-farm years, these townspeople will go to the Night Song Forest not far from here with axes and bows and arrows, and occasionally hunt some wild animals. Sell to support the family. There are even some skilled guys who simply gave up farming and became full-time hunters. Their monthly income from hunting alone was more than those who worked as farmers. This made the residents of the town very envious, and for a while, they became quite martial. . In addition, under the influence of the mercenaries who happened to pass by, the folk customs of York Town became particularly tough.
It’s just that toughness is toughness. Everyone in these towns practices martial arts. Although the moves and routines are dazzling, there is no perfect fighting spirit training system. Although many people in the town are self-taught and have inspired fighting spirit, but in terms of talent and Under the double restrictions of the environment, it is difficult to make a big breakthrough, so many people only stay at the third or fourth level of fighting spirit and it is difficult to improve.
For some reason, a huge brown bear has always appeared near York Town recently. Many villagers who went out have died in its hands. According to the living villagers, the brown bear was nearly three years old lying on its belly. meters tall, with two blue bear eyes as big as fists, and its reddish-brown fur makes it even more invulnerable, and its roars are so heart-wrenching.
At first, many hunters didn't believe this rumor. They took the villager's sickle and laughed and said, "This kind of sickle can't even cut through the wolf's skin. Of course you said the bear is invulnerable." Then a few people picked up their weapons and equipment with confidence. They were ready to go to eliminate harm to the people. After that, these people never came back.
News of residents being injured by bears kept coming from the town, causing panic in Yorktown for a while. After consideration, the town mayor decided to use the town's self-defense force to hunt bears. Many hunters in the town also signed up to join the bear hunting team.
This confident team searched for two days in Yege Forest, and finally found a red-blooded bear drinking water next to Shimmer Lake. But after finding the bear, the leader of the team, the captain of the Yorktown Self-Defense Force, decisively issued an order to evacuate.
"That is a red-blooded bear. It has broken away from the category of beast. It is a magical beast. It is not something ordinary people like us can deal with." The captain explained.
The mayor originally thought that the captain was shirking responsibility, but after seeing the horrified looks in the other bear hunting team's eyes, the mayor had to accept this fact. Attacks were still happening, and winter was coming soon. The townspeople originally wanted to attack and kill the bear while it was hibernating, but they saw people around them getting injured and dying, and whether this monster hibernated was still a question. So the townspeople finally decided not to be stingy with money, and they issued a bounty for a bear hunt to the mercenary alliance.
When Kordak and his party came to Yorktown, they were warmly welcomed by the residents of the town.
Firstly, it’s because the townspeople have been threatened by red-blooded bears for the past few months and have been worried all day long. Now someone finally came to eliminate the harm to the people. Although they took some money, when it was shared, everyone actually didn’t have much. How much money will be paid, so everyone has to show it no matter what.
Secondly, because the people of York Town are tough and fierce, they watched the best hunters in the town tremble in fear in front of the red-blooded bear, and many of them even lost their lives. Now this small team is confident in taking on the hunt. After completing the mission, the residents of the town couldn't help but wonder how honorable these powerful mercenaries were. Could it be that they had three heads and six arms
After actually meeting Kordak and others, the townspeople couldn't help but secretly nod, and their expectations for this hunt were a little more high.
Although there are many tall and powerful men in the town, those who are as tall and strong as the leading mercenary with extremely well-proportioned muscles are quite rare. Looking at the equipment on their bodies, the captain is wearing a well-made suit. Fine iron armor, look at the gleaming armor pieces. I'm afraid even the Crimson Blood Bear's claws can't tear this kind of iron apart, right? The captain was wearing armor and holding an ax and a heavy shield in his hand. The total equipment weighed one hundred and fifty pounds, but he still walked with a breeze and did not feel bulky or sluggish at all!
Look at the two team members behind them, each carrying a long bow. The tendons look very elastic. Coupled with the sharp arrows that shine coldly, it is no problem to shoot through the hide of the hateful red-blooded bear!
Looking at the last follower again, wow, wow, I didn’t expect that these days, even mercenaries would bring followers. This little guy also has a dagger and a long sword. His eyes are rolling around. You know that he is a smart and capable follower. If the master needs anything, he will definitely be able to handle it safely! Hey, no wonder the asking price is so high. These mercenaries knew from their posture that the fifty gold coins were not in vain.
Therefore, Kordak, Vera, and Silenos were warmly welcomed by the townspeople, while Regnar was selectively ignored by everyone as a follower. At first, Regnar just thought that he was too young to be respected, but after hearing someone shout, "I wish you and your entourage a speedy return with victory." Regnar finally understood that this was not a matter of respect, but a matter of respect. He was completely looked down upon by others.
But looking at the enthusiastic townspeople, Regnar was also angry and had nowhere to vent his anger. Who is to blame? Do you blame Kordak and the others for having too strong aura? Or is it because the townspeople are ignorant? In the final analysis, it is because I am too thin. So Regner had a sullen face all the way. Although he wasn't very happy, he didn't cause any trouble.
After arriving at the hotel, Kordak booked four rooms for everyone. Since there were free rooms, Kordak would naturally not let Regna take up his soft and comfortable bed, and Regna was happy not to have to smell it anymore. Kordak's stinky feet are as lethal as the Stinky Cloud Technique.
After everyone made arrangements, Kordak led everyone to prepare to go upstairs. At this time, a ragged little boy hurriedly walked towards Vera and bumped into Vera's body.
"Stop!" Regnar stopped the little boy who apologized hastily and turned to leave. The guy made a subtle move just now. The three old mercenaries Vera, Kordak, and Silenos didn't notice it, but they couldn't escape from the notorious "Skillful Little Thunder" in the Merindell Slums. Eye. Because that action was so familiar to him, he didn't know how many people's wallets he had taken away with this move. He never expected that he would meet his "fellow disciple" on the other side of the mainland this time.
"Hand over the money bag." Regnar stretched out his hand and his tone was quite kind. This little guy seemed to be a little younger than him. Thinking of the miserable scene back then, Regnar couldn't help but feel some sympathy in his heart, and his tone Naturally, he became much softer: "Hand over the money bag, and we will let you go and won't cause you any trouble."
The young man was so frightened by the tall Kordak behind Regna that he trembled and stretched out his left hand to take out Vera's money bag from behind his waist.
"Oh!" Vera exclaimed, and then said in a weird tone: "You little thieves are so hateful, so is Xiao Lei, and so is this guy. Everyone is trying to hit my wallet, hum!" Vera said. Then he actually gave Regnar a bang.
"I've made up for it this time." Regnar smiled bitterly and rubbed his head. Just as he was about to pick up the money bag, he saw the boy's eyes change from fear to ferocity in an instant.
"Fuck you!" The young man cursed fiercely, and then the right hand that no one noticed had already grasped a dagger and suddenly swung it over, pointing directly at Regnar's throat. The most shocking thing was , this dagger actually has a hint of fighting spirit!
Regnar remained calm in the face of danger, looking coldly at the dagger getting closer and closer to him, then stretched out his hand and hit the young man's wrist accurately. As soon as the young man felt the pain, his hand suddenly lost strength and the dagger fell to the ground. Then Kordak dodged in front of Regnar without hesitation, raised his leg and kicked the boy directly in the chest.
Fortunately, Kordak saw that he was young, so there was no fighting spirit attached to this kick, nor did it require much strength. However, despite this, the young man still flew for more than two meters before falling heavily to the ground and groaning. The money in his left hand The bag also flew out, and the glittering silver coins jingled all over the floor, but no one in the hotel dared to stoop to take advantage of these powerful mercenaries.
"How can you be so ruthless at such a young age that you will kill someone if you fail to steal?" Kordak said with a frown.
The young man struggled to get up. Although he was at an absolute disadvantage, he still kept cursing: "Okay, you are the stronger! I can't beat you. If you have the ability, kill me, otherwise I will be with you forever." It’s not over, I won’t kill you, but I’ll make you sleepless every day, so be damn careful tonight!”
"How dare you be so arrogant! Let's see who can't sleep well!" Kordak was greatly annoyed and took a step forward to show off this vicious little guy. Although it wouldn't kill him, it would still easily make him unable to sleep for several days. But at this moment, a hand grabbed Kordak.
