Before Hao Ren could finish his words, he was hit by the weak shadow arrow. Although the damage was basically zero, he was still confused for a moment, and then the two "people" looked at each other.
Two seconds later, the little weakling opened his hands and made a threatening gesture: "Scare"
Vivian pulled the little thing off her shoulder, held it in front of her eyes and stared at it: "Why did you follow me?!"
"His ha"
"Ask her how she knows!" Hao Ren came back from his shock at this time and looked at this little thing with surprise, who should have been left in the outer world and given to the care of the goddess sister, "
Instead of handing her over to Raven 12345..."
As soon as he mentioned the words Raven 12345, the little guy immediately let out a high-pitched scream, turned over, hugged Vivian's thumb, and curled up into a ball tremblingly, as if he was frightened.
appearance.
"Could it be that she secretly followed you when you left the goddess?" Vivian asked in a low voice, "But that's not right. Where has she been hiding along the way? We don't know anything about it."
Didn’t find it…”
Hao Ren secretly glanced at Leah, who was looking at her with curiosity. She was obviously very curious about this little guy who could move, scream, and had exactly the same appearance as Vivian. But out of politeness, she
She didn't interrupt but she always asked.
"Didn't you notice it too?" Hao Ren also lowered his voice and asked Vivian, "She was standing on your shoulders just now. If I am right, she should have been hiding on you."
Vivian shook her head: "Not at all...eh?"
She looked at her hands in surprise: the little weakling who had been holding her thumb and shivering since just now seemed to feel that this still did not feel safe enough, so he shrank even more into her palm, and with this movement, the little one
His body became illusory little by little, and soon turned into a hazy mist, just like the blood mist that Vivian usually summoned integrated into the latter's arm.
Lily blinked: "Uh... bat, did you just eat her?"
"No!" Vivian immediately stared at the husky girl, "Can you stop thinking about eating everything! She seems to have melted into my body..."
"Can you feel her presence now?" Hao Ren asked curiously.
"It seems like I can feel something vaguely now," Vivian said uncertainly, "So that's why I felt a little strange in my body before... It seems like this is how this guy followed me here."
Hao Ren was stunned: "...just to avoid being locked up next to Raven 12345 and eating noodles, you actually forced me to develop a new skill."
At this time, Lia finally couldn't restrain her curiosity and broke the silence: "Ahem, let me ask...is this lady a psychic? But the spirit you summoned looks a bit strange.
Ah, you were specially shaped like this?"
Hao Ren was having a headache over how to explain the existence of the little weakling. When he heard Leah's words, he immediately found the solution. Although it sounded like even the so-called "psychic master" profession in this world would not be able to summon someone like the weakling.
There is such an existence like a chicken, but this is more or less a way to explain it, so he nodded quickly: "Yes, she is a psychic, but her inheritance seems to be different from that of a normal psychic. Anyway, it is mysterious and difficult to find out.
, in short, the spirit body she summoned is like this."
"Um..." Leah didn't know what she was thinking of. Anyway, when she looked at Vivian, her eyes became weird. She even slightly retreated half of her body, "Make the summoned spirit body into your own."
It looks like...Ahaha, although I heard that many wizards and psychics from ancient times have some quirks, but...hehe, hehe, it's pretty good, it's still pretty good."
Seeing Leah's reaction, Vivian couldn't help but frown: "I always feel like you have misunderstood something."
"Ah, no, it's nothing. I shouldn't comment on other people's inheritance and hobbies. After all, this does not affect our employment relationship." Leah waved her hand quickly and stopped the topic abruptly, "Then let's
Let's continue to introduce each other. According to the general rules, first of all, as mercenaries, of course I know that you are adventurers, but since you have accepted the commission, you can be regarded as mercenaries for the time being. Let me introduce myself first."
Hao Ren originally planned to find an opportunity for Doudou to come out for some air and meet Leah, but now it seemed that just explaining to a weakling was already quite difficult, so he suppressed the idea for the time being and prepared to wait.
Let the baby fish come out after learning more about the world and finding the right opportunity. Anyway, he has prepared a quite comfortable environment for Doudou in his portable space, a huge water tank and a fully enclosed and highly simulated environment.
There is a real environment simulator, as well as various toys to play with her. The little one will not be bored if she stays in it for a long time. Or maybe she throws the data terminal in as a sacrifice every now and then...
After making the decision, he revealed the identity that he and his group had discussed before: "My name is Hao Ren. I am good at double swords and spears. I can be regarded as a warrior with more complicated skills; Vivian, um... a psychic."
, but also some side spells; Lily, as you can see, a werewolf giant swordsman; these two are brothers and sisters Nangong Sanba and Nangong Wuyue, the former is good at spells and rune spells, and the latter is our therapist
; This big man’s name is Yzaks, a warrior, and this is his daughter Elizabeth, a fire magician... I’m serious, this is really his daughter!”
These identities are all fabricated based on the intelligence collected by the probes in the city, and there are some ambiguities. This is also to fit the identity of the adventurers: although adventurers and mercenaries are often easily confused, in fact
There is still a big difference. Adventurers usually move freely, are seriously lacking in organization, and are not bound by many mercenary rules. Although they often participate in mercenary unions, they are mostly for issuing commissions or reselling some information and information.
Materials. In order to survive in various environments, adventurers usually do not have such obvious career boundaries. Basically, they will master some skills that are useful; while mercenaries have higher organization and discipline.
gender, most of them belong to a larger team, have significant divisions in career positioning for team actions, accept the management of the mercenary union, and also pay more attention to credibility and team honor.
This is why Leah was so concerned about whether Hao Ren and his party were adventurers, mercenaries, or gangsters: Of course, mercenaries are the first choice when hiring helpers. After all, there are rules that bind them. In order to stay in this industry for a long time, they are usually more reliable.
; The second level is also looking for adventurers. Although they are not registered as a union, they have great uncertainty, but adventurers still have to operate openly in the market, and they have to deal with other organizations.
Get support from the mercenary union, so you will pay more attention to the contract; black accounts are an option that must be avoided as much as possible. They are dangerous elements who have serious misdeeds, such as killing their employer and having their license revoked by the mercenary union. Some of them are still in various places.
Stay in jail, and nine of those guys who have been released from prison or have not been sanctioned by the law for various reasons are all outlaws. Only a down-and-out and fearless guy like Leah will take advantage of the law.
Also include it in your employment goals...
"Hao Ren... Vivian..." Leah repeated the names of the people in front of her one by one. Some of the names sounded strange to her, but this is White Maple Leaf City, with people from all races from all over the world.
People would gather here, including many foreigners from remote areas and even from across the "Golden Sea". No matter how strange their names were, her eyes finally fell on the cat man who was sitting across the table and taking a nap.
Regarding the young lady, "Hey? Why didn't you introduce her?"
"This..." Hao Ren coughed twice, "Her name is Gun, and she is the Shadow Assassin."
Although there is no need to worry about Lia's reaction if it is directly transliterated, it does feel strange when the unfortunate name of Cat Girl is mentioned in front of strangers.
I might as well have named her hellokitty at that time.
"Miss, are you going away?" Because it was a transliteration, Leah didn't feel anything was wrong, and repeated it seriously, "The one-character name...is a practitioner from the Kingdom of Mist, right? I yearn for you very much.
Hometown, that is the most mysterious place in the entire Lahirien."
Vivian coughed twice: "Ahem, Miss Leah, we have finished talking about our matters, is it time to talk about you?"
"My name is Leah, I don't have a surname, because a great magician doesn't need those things, a name is enough to be passed down through the ages!" Leah became energetic, and even stood up from the table, patting her chest,
"As you can see, I am a senior scholar and magician, and I am most likely the last smart person in the entire White Maple Leaf City!"
Hao Ren and his friends: "Oh..."
Everyone in the circle had such a blank reaction. Even Leah, who has a flamboyant personality, realized that she was a little too jumpy in front of strangers, so she sat down again with an awkward smile: "Ahem, in short, I am an academic."
I am a practicing mage, and by the way, I am also a scholar who studies ancient civilizations and historical legends. I am looking for you mainly for this aspect. Recently, I found clues about an ancient ruins in the literature. The location of this ruins is very important to me.
It's a bit troublesome. Of course, I am quite capable of fighting. When I practice, I often go to Changfeng Ridge to fight lions and tigers. But if I want to explore that ruins, it's better to find a few helpers.
You don’t have to worry about money. Although I seem to be a bit poor, as a mage, no matter how poor you are, you are still a rich person. I will pay the price of hiring an ordinary caravan guard... No, double the price on this basis. How?
Sample?"
Of course, Hao Ren didn't understand the price, so he pretended to think about it and nodded: "The price is easy to say, but now I want to know more about where the ruins you are talking about... are?"
A smile appeared on Lia's face that looked fake at first glance: "Ah haha, it's actually not that dangerous. It's within the Changfeng Ridge, but it's just a little... closer to the underground, and... a little bit closer to the Big Tunnel.
A little bit connected. Of course, you don’t have to worry. According to the information I have, the ruins are just next to the big tunnel, and there is no need to go in..."
