Chapter 207 The Eve

On the second floor of the hotel, when the boss brought the mercenaries behind him to the door, he trotted down the stairs. At this time, he found out how cute the rude and vicious mercenaries downstairs were!

"Like a poisonous snake, no, no, a snow bear, no, no, not..."

Recalling the previous feelings, the innkeeper's heart trembled continuously, so that he lost his footsteps and fell down the stairs.

Listening to the figure rolling down the stairs, there was an obvious contempt on the face of the 'Random Killer', and then he pushed open the door——

In the room, Baron de Fendi's chief guard had already been waiting there early. Looking at the 'random killer' who walked in, the noble chief guard said angrily: "You are two days later than agreed. Hour!"

"So what? And... are you accusing me?"

The 'Random Slayer' said indifferently, and then, the eyes filled with whites began to stare at the head of the guard of Baron Defendi.

"Don't think..."

He also came from a mercenary background, but after becoming the head of the noble bodyguard, it is obvious that the head of the bodyguard's temper has not become humble, and is still as violent as before.

However, this time, his words stopped just as he exited his mouth.

Because the 'random killer' who was standing in front of him suddenly disappeared, a palm passed through his back, and put his backhand on his throat, feeling the cold feeling, the chief guard My whole body shuddered.

"What do you think?"

The 'Random Killer' asked in a low voice.

"No, nothing..."

Sweat appeared and fell from the forehead of the head of the guard of the Baron Defendi, and his voice became dry; while the palm of the 'random killer' slowly fell down, giving the head of the guard a feeling. It was as if a snake was swimming on his body. Until the bag containing gems at the waist. Just left with that bag.

"If you hadn't brought enough 'deposit', you would have been a dead man!"

Weighing the weight of the bag, the gems made a burst of noise during the period, and the voice of the 'random killer' said softly.

"This is half of the 'deposit' that the baron gave you,

Pay the rest when you kill or humiliate that guy! "

The head of the guard of Baron Defendi turned around and took a few steps back, after getting a sufficient distance from the 'mass killer'. That's it.

"I want to add 30%!"

The 'Random Killer' said suddenly.

"What?! Impossible, it's just a knight who has just been baptized as a knight. Two thousand Kimptons is already the limit!"

The chief guard of Baron Defendi was startled, and then roared loudly the next moment.

"Is a knight who has just been baptized by a knight worth two thousand Kimptons? Two hundred is about the same! Dean Ken is different. He is the future golden knight of Emerald, so he is only worth two thousand Kimptons. 'White Rose' is also by his side. So, you need to give me 30% more. Because I need to spend more energy to escape the other party's pursuit - you don't think that after I kill Dean Ken, Can I return to Del County in an open and aboveboard manner? Emerald cannot tolerate me!"

The 'Random Killer' poured the bag of gems into his hands, and pressed his cheeks against it as if savoring the colorful luster; however, his words were clearly transmitted to Baron Defendi's chief guard in the ears.

"You don't need to kill yourself!"

The chief guard of Baron Defendi said.

"Since your master has found me, he naturally understands the consequences; or...he came here for the consequences!"

Without raising his head, the 'Random Killer' said slowly.

"I can't decide this, I will report to the baron!"

After hesitating for a moment, the chief guard of Baron Defendi replied like this.

"I'll be waiting for your reply..."

The voice of the 'chaotic killer' suddenly became indistinct, because thick saliva suddenly overflowed from his mouth, covering those gemstones layer by layer.

Immediately, the brilliance of those gemstones seemed to have dimmed a bit.

On the other hand, a strange blush appeared on the face of the 'Random Slayer', and a slight change began to appear in the eyes full of whites.

Watching this scene, the head of the guard of Baron Defendi felt inexplicably a chill down the spine of his back.

Without even saying goodbye, he just left the room.

In such a hurry, many people in the lobby saw him leave.

However, none of these mercenaries paid any attention to the chief guard. Nord glanced at 'Scorpion' Ster and the captain of the lion, Kasted, and winked directly at his subordinates.

Then, the entire Nord mercenary group left the 'Night of the River'.

Then, after frowning, the captain of the Lion Mercenary Corps, Kesde, also chose to leave.

Only the 'Scorpion' Ster of the Scorpion Mercenary Group sat there without moving, even though some of his subordinates had become anxious and panicked.

And when footsteps sounded on the stairs, such anxiety and fear were completely occupied by fear.

"'Poisonous scorpion'?"

Deirdran glanced at the other party in surprise, but immediately became more contemptuous. He stood there and looked at the flattering other party: "Do you want to cooperate again?"

"Of course, Lord Deirdran! After all, cooperation is a win-win situation!"

'Poisonous Scorpion' said flatteringly.

"What price are you prepared to pay?"

Deirdre asked slowly.

"It's enough to make you not a price tag!"

'Poisonous Scorpion' replied like this.

After that, the two returned to the second floor of the hotel.

Most of the mercenaries of the poisonous scorpion mercenary group on the first floor looked at this scene blankly, especially those who were occupied by fear before.

However, there are a few with a clear look on their faces.

While the mercenaries waited quietly, the 'Night of the River' seemed to have returned to its former peace.

Of course, except for the boss who was supposed to be standing behind the bar. He was lying down in his room at the moment. Moaning outside. Everything is so peaceful and peaceful.

...

It snowed heavily for three days in a row, but people were not as bored as before, on the contrary, there was a tinge of joy.

Because, in Vauban County, there is a saying that the more snow falls before Midwinter Festival, the better luck will be in the coming year-most of the four northern counties have this saying.

so. People just cleaned the snow in front of the door and the roof, and waited for the Midwinter Festival with a mood of leisure and anticipation.

This is even more true for the commoners of Tyreland——

The bowstring on the longbow was picked off and put into the bow sleeve, sprinkled with some sand powder and sawdust to ensure that the bowstring would not lose its elasticity; the hunting knife was also wrapped in layers and hung high on the roof to prevent it from being stolen by minors. The hunters and woodcutters of Tillland began to prepare after the children of the lords met.

A fairly sumptuous meal, or a gift made of animal skins and feathers.

They are all indispensable for the Midwinter Festival.

Especially those prestigious commoners invited by the Baron. He even took out a new dress that hadn't been passed on for a year, and smoothed out the creases on it. Started to try on them one by one.

Although according to the tradition of Tillland, Midwinter Festival starts in the afternoon of the first day and lasts until midnight of the second day.

At midnight the next day, it's already a new year.

At that time, after blessing each other, you can rest to your heart's content to relieve the fatigue of the Midwinter Festival carnival.

Therefore, at this time, everyone, there is no harm in taking a break.

However, some people can't.

For example: the old Siren's family living in the north of the town; because his son became one of the captains of the knight order, the old Siren, who was the head of the family, was invited by the baron.

This hunter with a strong figure is carefully asking his wife to pick up the clothes for him to try on - this is after the Kimpton exchange given by his son, and he spends a silver corner to let the tailor customize it; For old Siren, it is also one of the most expensive clothes he has worn so far.

"How about it?"

Old Siren asked his wife a little nervously.

"Very good, Siren will be surprised that his father has such a clean and elegant side! Do you still feel sorry for that silver horn?"

Old Siren's wife, a simple townsman of Tyre, teased her husband softly.

"Well, there is one thing; but... I can't embarrass Siren, he is favored by the leader, I can't let Siren lose his future because of myself!"

Old Siren nodded, the pride on his face was obvious.

"I'll be at the baron's mansion tonight for a banquet...you take care of the children!"

Before leaving the house, Old Siren urged his wife again, and then, with his wife's repeated assurances, he left the house.

"Old Siren, old Siren!"

Old Siren, who was walking, turned around and looked at the short man approaching - Ike's father, Old Ike, had the same reason as him, and the child became one of the captains, and was received by the baron this time. invite.

"It cost a lot, didn't it?"

Old Siren pointed to the same brand new clothes on the other party.

"Looks like yours isn't it?"

The old Ike, who is also a hunter and quite famous, rolled his eyes, and then asked in a low voice, "Can I do this? I won't embarrass Ike, right?"

Unlike Old Siren who still had a wife, Old Ike's wife died after giving birth to Ike.

Therefore, old Ike couldn't even find someone to discuss.

"No, good enough!"

Old Siren cheered up his friend, and then greeted the two men who came from a distance: "Old Chad, old Maher, here!"

Chad and Maher's father, also in brand new clothes, walked over quickly.

Then, the previous conversation was repeated again.

Then, the four fathers once again confirmed to each other that they would not embarrass their sons, and then walked side by side towards the baron's mansion.
