Later that day, the Water Snake Town Adventurer's Guild sent a clerk to the door to confirm that the bounty mission issued by Victor and the others had been completed. Harvey pressed his fingerprint on the animal skin paper document, which meant that the large bounty was
Now he belongs to Lao Lang, the leader of thieves in Water Snake Town.
This is somewhat funny. In the end, the thief took away the reward for the mission.
Water Snake Town is a big place like this. Without the protection of the Thieves Guild, Stephanie would have been dragged out in exchange for a huge bounty no matter how clever she was. Perhaps the old wolf couldn't bear the pressure from adventurers and townspeople.
He had no choice but to hand over the thieves under his banner.
Although this goes against the rules of the Thieves Guild, it also calms down the turmoil caused by the huge bounty in the town.
Neither Harvey nor Maddie thought deeply about the reason. After all, Stephanie is just a teenage girl. It is normal for her to be treated as an outcast by the Thieves Guild. Even if she has outstanding talent and full potential, it will take time and effort to become a powerful professional.
resource.
No one can say what the future holds for Stephanie.
The clerk got the paperwork signed by the employer, said goodbye politely, and then hurriedly left the rental house.
Harvey folded his arms and stood at the door. He scanned the corners of the streets and alleys with fierce and sharp eyes, but found no one following him. It seemed that the informants arranged by the town guard were scared of him, and they were not there these days.
Dare to appear in his sight.
With a creak, Harvey closed the door and turned around to see Stephanie washing Ruth and Jessica's face and wiping her hands. He couldn't help but shake his head and muttered: "5,000 gold pagodas, enough to buy 20 young and strong barbarian female slaves."
, the result was a skinny child."
"You know nothing." McGrady said to him rudely.
McGrady has trained more than a dozen secret hunters. The town of Braun has undergone drastic changes. His students have died and scattered. It is not known whether those scouts who were lucky enough to survive can be reunited in the future. Fortunately, as one of the top four, he
A level 1 dark hunter, even if he loses most of his power, can still teach the Awakened.
The Adventurer's House in Braun Town recruits top level four professionals. Most of them are disabled during adventure activities, but they can serve as instructors in the training camp and teach the mixed-race children of the Hemer tribe.
Harvey is not qualified to teach the law, but he believes in the experience and vision of his old friend Maddie. If Stephanie really has a chance to become a Venerable, she will definitely be able to relieve Master Victor's worries.
How can twenty strong barbarian female slaves compare to a fifth-level dark stalker?
Harvey's eyes became softer when he looked at the little girl, and he thought to himself: Cole, you, a lecherous old doctor, must not die at the hands of an orc.
Cole, the doctor in the Adventurer's House, also plays an indispensable role in training professionals, and his role is even more important than that of a preacher.
When they and Cole parted ways during their escape, Victor and his group broke into the shadow lurker's forest and took on the responsibility of attracting the pursuers. Dr. Cole's team should have more chances to survive.
Harvey also counts on Doctor Cole to help Master Victor train a steady stream of capable subordinates. Now he often thinks of the benefits of Doctor Cole, hoping that he can escape the pursuit of orcs and barbarians and wait to reunite with everyone in Sands Town.
.
Stephanie is not very old, but she is a smart and sensible little girl, and she is very aware of her status. She rushes to do the work, cooks, washes, cleans, and takes care of Jenny and Jessica, just like an energetic person.
, the hard-working and capable little maid took care of all the chores in the rental house in order.
Harvey and Maddie originally had to do these trivial things every day. Although they were not tiring, they were indeed a waste of time. Now that Stephanie is doing it for them, Harvey and Maddie feel relaxed. The only regret is that Stephanie’s cooking skills are really bad.
The food they eat is unflattering. Fortunately, it is common for Harvey and the others to eat and sleep in the open. As long as the food is enough to satisfy them, they will not be picky about the taste of the food.
Victor woke up only once every other day and night, ate briefly, dealt with personal problems, and listened to the intelligence information collected by Harvey, then went into sleep again, and never interfered with Stephanie's affairs.
Time passed like this, and on the sixteenth day of the blockade of Water Snake Town, a group of Guard soldiers finally came to the door.
There were five of them in total, wearing leather helmets and carrying long and short weapons. They walked menacingly through the alley and came to the steps in front of the rental house. When Harvey yanked open the door from the inside, with cold eyes, he spoke with an uneasy look.
Disguised contempt prevents their actions.
This group of heavily armed guards immediately retreated, like a mouse encountering a cat. Under the gaze of natural enemies, they had nowhere to hide but did not dare to move.
In fact, weapons and armor have a hidden characteristic - giving them courage and recklessness.
Half-elves have neither the power of minions nor the possession of scales, but they are equipped with tough armor and have sharp weapons in their hands. Ordinary civilians will also have more courage, invisibly improve their own spirit, and become brave and possessive.
Aggression.
They are protected by armor, so they may not be injured if they are hit. If the sharp blade in their hands hits the enemy, it may kill them.
This is by no means an illusion of the guard soldiers. Strengthening defense and attack as a common cognition can indeed change the mentality of half-elf soldiers.
After all, a sixth-level venerable is still a body of flesh and blood. He can bleed, be injured, and can be killed by swords.
Several heavily armed Guardsmen could easily establish a psychological advantage when facing an unarmed Harvey. As for Harvey, who could easily kill several ordinary guardsmen, it was not a real danger that they could realize.
These days, Harvey openly beats and humiliates the guard sergeants on the streets of Water Snake Town. Many young and energetic guards are holding back their anger and always want to take revenge on him. But when they see Harvey in person, they feel afraid.
Because, Harvey is a servant of a famous noble family, and if a famous noble family wants to kill a few ordinary guards, they don't need to be responsible. At most, they will pay for it.
Harvey's group happened to be rich and powerful. Perhaps with just one word, they could take off their standard leather armor and turn them into lower-level civilians.
The army soldiers of the Disa Alliance were naturally shorter than the famous nobles. When Harvey glanced at them, they were so frightened that they did not even dare to breathe.
Although the Water Snake Town Guards all believed that Victor and others came from noble families in the Highlands, their noble status was not confirmed. The leading soldier regarded them as ordinary travelers, tightened his face, and said stumblingly: "I...
We received a report that you are harboring a fugitive from Island Street. I...I want to search this room now. Oh, no...we were ordered to search...yes, we were ordered to search!"
The notorious Wolf Shepherd female bandit Bertina once settled in Dao Street in Beibang, Luoye City. Therefore, all the residents of Island Street were judged by the Supreme Council of the Disa Alliance as associates of the Wolf Shepherd female bandit. The sergeants of the Luoye City Public Security Department arrested her.
In the name of the Island Street fugitive, he took advantage of the situation, bullied men and women, and did many dirty things. Ordinary people would have to shed their skin if they were associated with the Island Street fugitive.
Harvey did not forget that back in Braun Town, the famous Golden Oak dragoons also slandered Wiltok as an accomplice of the Wolf Shepherd Girl and planned to arrest Wiltok without any reason.
Now, the Water Snake Town Guards actually charged them with the same crime. Harvey suddenly became furious and stepped forward and pushed the guard leader in the chest.
"roll!"
The soldier only felt a huge force coming on him, and his legs uncontrollably stepped back more than ten steps. The speed of retreat became faster and faster, and the steps became larger and larger. Finally, he really fell.
On the ground, he rolled several somersaults in succession.
The half-elf residents watching the excitement around the streets all burst into laughter upon seeing this. The few guard soldiers did not dare to retaliate, so they had to evacuate in embarrassment amidst the laughter of the residents.
The five soldiers returned to the guard station for business. As soon as they entered the guard captain's house, one of the soldiers left the team quietly. There were five of them when they went, but one more came out on the way. When they came back, there were still five.
In fact, one person was missing. But they had no feeling at all about this, as if the soldier who had just left the team did not exist at all.
The most terrifying thing is that what passers-by in Water Snake Town just saw were five Guards soldiers looking for trouble for Harvey, and even Harvey only saw five soldiers.
The "invisible" soldier turned into a living room in the mansion, took off his helmet and gently threw it on the ground without making a sound, revealing an ordinary face that was hard to remember.
In the living room, Anthony, the leader of the Beibang Thieves Group, seemed to "hear" the movement at the door. He turned around naturally and smiled at the soldiers who entered the room:
"Kyle Fedi, I just like your unique way of knocking on doors. You always wake up the person you want to wake up... How about the target person? Are you still satisfied?"
The killer king who shocked Beibang showed no expression and completely ignored the compliments of his companions.
Anthony smiled slightly. He had long been accustomed to Kyle Fedi's boring style, but he would never succumb to his character. Even if Kyle Fedi could kill him with a little finger, Anthony still insisted on finding Kyle.
Feidi chats. In fact, Kyle Feidi will not only "disappear", but can also make the people he hates feel nightmarish terror. However, Anthony could endure the murderous intention Kyle Feidi unleashed on himself.
Di also endured the other party's nonsense.
Even Red Sir Brad was surprised that Anthony the Awakener had reached some kind of compromise with the Assassin Lord, as if they were a pair of old friends.
Of course, Anthony knew what was enough. He took out a piece of cotton paper and spread it on the table, picked up the quill full of ink, and asked: "Okay, you can say, I am responsible for recording."
Kelfedi spoke, his voice hoarse and erratic:
"The target, Harvey, is a third-level shield guard. His body and spirit have reached the top level of a dragon-veined half-elf, but he is not a dragon-veined one! He is a strong man who has mastered the heart of the mirror... I have to prepare for twenty days to deal with him."
"Maddie, a level four stealth hunter, is seriously injured and poses a certain threat."
"Ruth, crazy or idiot, no threat."
"Jessica, like Ruth, is no threat."
"Stephanie, a natural awakener with agility expertise, poses a certain threat."
"Victor..."
Having said this, Kelfedi paused for a moment before continuing: "Unknown."
"unknown?"
The tip of the quill crossed the paper, leaving a thick ink mark. Anthony was stunned for a moment, then raised his eyelids and asked in a thoughtful tone: "Can I understand that Mr. Victor you have seen is an ordinary person?"
He is a half-elf, but we all know that Mr. Victor has extraordinary skills and is by no means an ordinary person?"
Kelfedi nodded silently.
Anthony couldn't help but take a long breath. He knew very well that Kelfedi's core secret blood ability was to see the breath, and it was difficult for targets he had sensed at close range to hide their own strengths and weaknesses.
Harvey was not a sixth-level venerable, but a third-level shield guard who mastered the Heart of the Mirror, which was enough to surprise Anthony.
However, Anthony is not worried that the King of Killers will not be able to deal with Harvey. Although the strong ones with the Mirror Heart should not be underestimated and their fighting skills are extraordinary, Kyle Fedi is also a fifth-level assassin who has mastered the Mirror Heart. As far as he is concerned, assassination is
Like a perfect art. He said that it would take twenty days to make preparations, and he would be able to kill Harvey and escape unscathed.
The King of Killers never disappoints, and Anthony has full confidence in his abilities.
However, Kyle Fedi's insightful aura made a mistake in Victor's body?
Anthony furrowed his gray eyebrows and asked thoughtfully: "Have you ever seen Victor with your own eyes?"
Kelfedi shook his head first and then said: "I can feel that he is sleeping upstairs. He exudes a healthy, strong and agile aura, but he is an ordinary half-elf. I can sneak in again and take a closer look.
he."
"No, no, no." Anthony waved his hands repeatedly and said, "You are not ready yet. If you are hit by Harvey, the strong man with a mirror heart, the situation may become very bad..."
The core secret blood ability of the Shield Guard is to predict the attack, and then combine the defense with the attack, especially to restrain ambushes and assassinations. Harvey is also a mirror-centered strongman comparable to the Dragon Veined Half-Elf, so Kelfedi needs time.
Only by arranging a killing move in advance can Harvey be killed. If the two of them are in close combat, even if Kelfedi takes the lead, he may be killed by Harvey's counterattack.
Anthony thought for a while, shook his head and said with a smile: "The boss has told us that we only need to hold back the target. Assuming that the situation is not good, we must first find a way to escape. Only when there is no guarantee, will we consider killing Victor.
The bodyguards around him protected him and kidnapped him secretly."
"Although I think Mr. Victor is of great value to the boss, there is no need to risk your life and mine."
"I am now very sure that Mr. Victor's origin is very extraordinary. He is either from an ancient pillar family, or from a secret sect in the 'Tower'..."
"Let's see and wait... I have a hunch that we will have a chance. The only question is whether we should seize the opportunity." Anthony murmured in a low voice.
After a period of silence in the room, Kelfedi said with a dull expression: "I have remembered Harvey now, and I am going to find the next target...White-haired Rhine."
"Damn it! We didn't come to Water Snake Town to satisfy your desire to create 'assassination art'... Just thinking about Mr. Victor's problem is enough to give me a headache." Anthony covered his forehead and complained dissatisfiedly.
There was a dark luster in the eyes of the King of Killers, and he said softly: "I didn't say I must assassinate them, I just carved the target in my mind in advance... kill them in my mind first."
