"What happened next?" Kordak poked the bonfire in front of him with a fire stick. Regnar's past was more tragic than he imagined, so he knew very well that under such an environment, nothing major happened to Regnar's psychology. Distortion is not easy, and this shows that Irene's influence on him is really huge.

Regnar thought for a while, then shook his head and said: "My mind was fuzzy at the time, and I can't remember clearly what happened next. I don't even know how I got back to my shabby nest. When I came to my senses, I found that I was angry.

In the days that followed, I started asking around about the Rawson Chamber of Commerce. After researching for about half a year, I was caught following them once. Then they kept chasing me. I escaped into a large mansion and found that they were not chasing me. Seeing that there were not many guards in the mansion, I wanted to go in and steal some things. As a result, I was knocked unconscious as soon as I reached the warehouse. I woke up again. He was thrown into prison and sent here a few days later. "

"So that's it." Kordak said calmly, but a turmoil arose in his heart. Only then did he notice that Regnar had no fighting spirit in his previous stories. If it is true that Regnar suddenly gained fighting spirit half a year ago, then this kid's progress is really crazy.

After thinking about it, Kordak thought that Regnar's future would naturally be arranged by the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild, so he didn't say much and just continued to ask: "What about the future? Are you still looking for her?"

"Look! Of course I have to look for her! No matter where I go, I will find her. I have already thought about it. I will work hard to practice in the future and strive to gain a certain status in the Moon Shadow Thieves Guild, and then rely on the power of the guild to find her." Reg Na answered very simply.

Kordak smiled, gently hammered Regnar on the chest and said: "Good boy, have a conscience! I think you will get what you want, okay, it's getting late now, you go to my place to sleep for a while Well, I can still sleep for three more hours now."

Regnar stood up. He was indeed a little sleepy, but before leaving, he still hesitated and said to Kordak: "Boss..."

"Huh?" Kordak looked at Regnar.

"I feel good that I can express what's on my mind a little bit today, thank you."

Kordak was stunned for a moment, then grinned: "Silly boy, what are you thanking for? I am your elder brother and your friend. There is no need to thank friends."

Gerhart was still taciturn along the way, but with Regnar's mediation, his eyes on Kordak had become much softer and no longer so cold and harsh.

Kordak and others also understood Gerhart's difficulties after being informed by Regnar. Now they felt that the child was no longer so annoying, so Gerhart successfully joined the mercenaries the next day. , no longer alone in the lead.

When Gerhat successfully brought Regnar and others to the surroundings of Shimmer Lake, his mission was finally completed. Regnar was originally worried that he would be in danger alone in the forest, and wanted him to stay in Shimmer Lake and wait for everyone to hunt down the red-blooded bear before returning together, but Gerhart refused.

"I have walked through this area many times, and I am also good at fighting. It is no problem to protect myself when encountering wild beasts. Besides, my two sisters are waiting for me at home. I really don't trust them two. "Jerhat explained.

Regnar opened his mouth, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just took out his wallet and gave Gerhart ten silver coins. Vera behind her let out another exclamation when she saw the money bag in Regnar's hand.

"Take these ten silver coins." Regnar stretched out his hand and said hurriedly before Gerhart could speak: "Don't refuse in a hurry. Think about your two sisters. Their food and clothing are better than yours. Dignity is much more important, think more about them.”

Gerhart took a deep look at Regnar, then reached out and took the coin, his lips moving and he whispered "Thank you" in a low voice.

"Don't be so impulsive when doing things in the future. Remember what I said, leave room for others and yourself." Regnar patted Gerhart on the shoulder, then turned and walked towards Kordak and others.

Gerhat looked at Regner's back, which was hiding his merit and fame, and couldn't help but feel impressed by this young man who was not much older than him. Then he saw the following scene.

"You dare to steal my sister's wallet and spend my money casually? I think you are really tired of life, aren't you?" Vera grabbed Regnar's ears and lifted him up so that he was walking on tiptoes.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch, ouch! Pay it back! Definitely pay it back! When this mission is over, I will pay you back double the money! Ouch! Sister Vera, stop dragging me, I am about to be dragged into an elf." Regnar bared his teeth. Yell.

Vera nodded with satisfaction: "Huh, that's pretty much it. You don't have to pay back the money. Just help my sister carry her luggage in the future. Do you dare to steal my wallet in the future?"

"Hey hey hey, how dare you? If you steal from Sister Vera again, you will chop off my hands and roast them to eat." Regnar said flatteringly, looking like a dog wagging its tail, and no one wanted to Would doubt he could shake his ass off.

"Huh, don't worry! I don't care about eating your dirty chicken feet." Vera curled her lips.

Gerhart looked at Regner's back again, and suddenly felt that he had met such an embarrassing person. He shook his head and turned to leave.

Since it was already evening when he arrived at Shimmer Lake, Kordak was not in a hurry for his companions to start preparing for the hunt. He just asked Regnar to scout the surroundings, and after confirming that there was no threat, he started to set up camp. .

The next day, after everyone searched everywhere, the mercenary team finally found traces of the red-blooded bear in the afternoon.

"Judging from the footprints, the last time the red-blooded bear came here was two days ago." Regnar looked at the footprints, then closed his eyes and calculated in his mind for a while before saying.

Kordak gave him a strange look: "How did you calculate that?"

"Oh, the notebook I got contains calculation methods." Regnar said casually, continuing to observe the footprints.

"Well, if your calculations are accurate, it should be not far away from the next arrival of the Red-Blooded Bear, so get ready." Kordak flew up and kicked Regnar away to set up a trap. Regnar rubbed his butt dissatisfiedly and started to work with a mumble.

"Hey, Xiao Lei." Kordak threw a large bottle of thick golden liquid to Regnar.

"What is this?" Regnar looked at the bottle in confusion.

"You know the refined honey from Cerla Manor." Kordak gave Regnar a look that said, "Old man, we have a tacit understanding."

"Oh, the boss is so considerate, and he also knows how to replenish our health." Regnar happily opened the bottle and smelled it, and sure enough, a rich and sweet smell hit his nostrils.

"Get out! This is the bait used to lure the red-blooded bear. Who will replenish your body?" Kordak suddenly felt that it was impossible to be in sync with such an idiot.

"Tch, it's boring. As a captain, you don't know how to sympathize with your subordinates." Regnar muttered softly, and then took two big sips while Kordak wasn't paying attention. To be honest, he had never eaten this stuff before in his life.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's so sweet." Regnar smacked his lips. The old man said in the past that this stuff was very sweet. When he tasted it today, Regnar found that it was indeed well-deserved.

"Hey! You're such a greedy kid. You want to grab some of the shitty things to eat." Kordak couldn't laugh or cry at Regna.

"Oh, I can't use it all anyway. I'll take a few sips first to fill my stomach. It's almost night and I haven't eaten yet, so I'm hungry!" Regnar said confidently and took two more sips.

"Hurry up, don't miss it. When the honey is gone, I will use your meat as bait." Kordak didn't bother to pay attention to this living treasure.

After an hour or two of work, Regnar finally set up his trap. According to Kordak's description, ordinary traps cannot penetrate the fur of a red-blooded bear. So after discussing with Kordak, Regnar decided to let Regnar use traps to destroy the red-blooded bear's eyesight. As long as the red-blooded bear's eyes were hurt, the rest of the matter would be much easier to handle.

"Boss, do you think the red-blooded bear will come?" After the trap was set up, Kordak ordered everyone to hide in the grass and wait for the red-blooded bear to arrive. Vera and Silenos each found ways to attack and attack. He hid in a hidden place, but Regnar was too lazy to find another place and simply hid with Kordak. At this time, he asked Kordak beside him while sipping the remaining honey.

"If your judgment of the time is correct, then it should come." Kordak looked at Regnar and frowned: "Stop drinking, what will happen if the red-blooded bear notices your smell later. "

"Oh, you don't want to let anyone eat this late at night. I'll at least get something to make up for it, otherwise I'll be discovered when my stomach growls." Regnar took another sip, savoring the taste with his mouth. Refreshing sweetness.

"You're not tired of it either." Kordak looked at Regner's happy expression and swallowed: "Give me the rest."

Kordak grabbed the little honey left in Regnar's hand and poured it into his mouth in one breath. In fact, he had been busy and hadn't eaten until now...

"Tch, you should keep on pushing forward. You sound like you are a man of steel." Regnar couldn't help but look down upon him.

Kordak shook the last few drops of honey from the bottle into his mouth and said, "What do you know? I'm going to go up and fight against such a big man in a while. You've got enough to eat and drink, why don't you go up?"

"Hehehehe, don't we have a different division of labor? Look at my small body, which is not as thick as a bear's legs. Boss, you are more reassuring." Regnar quickly changed his expression and said, licking his face.

"Hmph, you know what's going on."

"Roar!"

As soon as Kordak finished speaking the word "phase" of "knowing phase", a deep roar sounded not far away.
