In the house where you stay overnight.

Tang Zheng was sitting cross-legged on the wooden bed, eyes slightly closed, thinking about what to do next.

Squeak~squeak~

Lesser Barghest was lying under the bed, biting a piece of Goblin's leg bone in his mouth. His teeth kept grinding and made a weak "squeaking" sound, as if he was grinding his teeth.

The corpse of Goblin just now had obviously been eaten by Barghest, leaving only a piece of leg bone.

suddenly.

Lesser Barghest grinded his teeth for a moment, raised his head, and looked in the direction outside the door. Then he turned his head and looked at the wooden bed, and found that Tang Zheng had opened his eyes.

The footsteps are not heavy.

Tang Zheng's eyes flashed, and he looked down at the bones in Lesser Barghest's mouth with an expressionless expression.

"Click!"

Lesser Barghest's teeth immediately exerted force, easily biting the seemingly hard leg bone of Goblin, and swallowed it into his stomach in one or two bites.

"Odorless."

Tang Zheng raised his arm and waved.

The faint smell of blood in the air of the room immediately dissipated completely.

Dang, Dang!

There was a gentle knock on the door.

Tang Zheng stood up from the wooden bed, and with a soft "click", the door opened.

Enri, who was holding a wooden tray with both hands, saw Tang Zheng opening the door. He lowered his head and whispered, "My mother asked me to deliver these foods. Thank you for your help today."

"Actually, I've already eaten." Tang Zheng heard this and simply glanced at the food opening on the tray.

As soon as these words came out.

Enri didn't know how to speak for a while.

Seeing Enri becoming more nervous, Tang Zheng opened the door wider and said, "Then come in first."

Enri breathed a sigh of relief, walked into the room, and placed the wooden tray on the old wooden table in the house.

After putting things away.

Enri glanced at Lesser Barghest, who was lying under the wooden bed and looking at her, and his body froze.

Even though I knew there would be no danger, I was still a little scared. After all, this was a very dangerous monster.

Tang Zheng did not close the door, but pushed it back again, opened the door wider, and then walked into the room.

"Um, sir, let me put down the food first..."

Enri folded his hands on his lower abdomen and his voice was a little cramped.

"If you're not in a hurry, I have a few things I'd like to ask." Tang Zheng walked to the wooden table, pulled out a chair and sat down, and spoke gently.

He didn't expect that Enri would send him food, but now that he's here, it's time to confirm the affairs of the previous groups of adventurers.

A small village like this can't hide any secrets.

Moreover, the village chief's words need to be verified again.

"Okay, okay."

Enri was startled for a moment, then nodded and sat down together.

Tang Zheng looks at the food on the table.

A portion of soup with milk White and diced meat is a very strange combination.

"I will accept this kindness."

Tang Zheng picked up a nut that looked like a pine nut on the side, pinched it lightly, threw it into his mouth, and said calmly, "The nut is good."

Hear this sentence.

Enri Not only did his back subconsciously sit up straighter, but his eyes brightened significantly.

Actually.

Whether it's bean soup with thick diced meat or nuts picked from the dangerous environment of the forest, these are things that their family is usually reluctant to eat.

But Enri knows very well that food like this can probably be described as shabby in the eyes of the young adult in front of him.

Before sending it over, Enri had thought that the other party might not even touch it, but even if such a result was expected, the proper etiquette should still be followed!

Just like everyone in the village, they often help each other. No matter how big or small the help is, they must respond.

For Enri, this is the simplest truth.

Tang Zheng didn't think much about it. After tasting a nut casually, he asked about the adventurer.

Enri obviously didn't know it specifically. Most of them heard it from the mouths of other villagers, which was similar to what the village chief just said.

Tang Zheng nodded lightly in understanding.

"Um, sir, aren't you an adventurer?" Enri suddenly asked in a low voice.

"Oh, how did you know?" Tang Zheng said.

Enri saw that his inquiry was not rejected. At an age that was already full of curiosity about the outside world, he naturally couldn't help but overhear part of the conversation between the village chief and the two village chiefs when delivering food, and whispered it out.

"That's it."

"I am indeed not an adventurer." Tang Zheng smiled softly.

After a while.

Enri With a happy look on his face, he picked up the untouched bean soup and the nut that he only ate one piece, and left the room.

Click!

Tang Zheng closed the door again, an interesting look flashed across his face.

He suddenly noticed something that he had not noticed before.

Enri's hair color is obviously different from the hair color of other people in this village.

The mainstream hair color of people in Carne Village is brown or dark brown. The parents of Enri, including younger sister Nemu, have dark brown hair.

Only Enri's hair color is chestnut gold, a shiny hair color.

Of course, this is just a small thing.

Tang Zheng walked back to the wooden bed, reached out and patted Lesser Barghest on the head, "You have played your role."

"Ouch."

Lesser Barghest's eyes were a little dazed, and he didn't understand what Tang Zheng meant.

Tang Zheng naturally can't explain.

He suddenly took in Lesser Barghest. In addition to letting him handle a large number of Goblin and Troll corpses in Item Box, he also disguised himself to a certain extent.

Or it can be said to be actively exposing part of the information!

When the strength is too weak, reducing one's own sense of existence is the most appropriate choice.

But most of the time next, he has to carry out activities in the human society of this world, and it is not necessary to reduce his own sense of existence.

As long as there is activity, it will inevitably leave traces.

Just like being targeted by "Eight Fingers" inexplicably before, some troubles cannot be prevented by taking the initiative to avoid them.

Although New World appears to be stable on the surface, in fact, whether it is a relatively chaotic situation internally or externally, there will always be unsighted things that come up.

If you keep reducing your sense of presence and suddenly make a big noise, it will be more eye-catching.

The existence of Lesser Barghest is enough to form a certain deterrent, but this deterrent is not strong.

Bone Lord's approach is worthy of Tang Zheng's reference.

But the effects pursued are different.

Bone Lord founded Swords of Darkness to gain a lot of reputation in a short period of time and make itself famous, in order to quickly penetrate into the human race and obtain information on the human world.

But Tang Zheng faces not only the humans of New World, but also "Great Tomb of Nazarick" who will come in the future.

As he said before, this intelligence war has already begun!

Tang Zheng's strongest method at present is his melee ability. There is a high probability that before he obtains Special Class "Valkyrie", his melee ability should be his strongest method.

So.

Tang Zheng plans to disguise his main attack method as Magic Caster.

However, he is not sure yet.

Is it Magic Caster disguised as Arcane System, or Magic Caster disguised as Divine System.

All the magic he currently masters, except for "Minor Healing", is the magic of Arcane System. But before, he took the initiative to expose the existence of Healing Magic.

So I was a little confused.

Of course, you can also pretend to be Magic Caster who masters dual spells. There are many such spell casters in this world.

"What a pity."

Tang Zheng sighed slightly as he thought of Enri just now.

After realizing that Enri had quite good talent on Command System Class, he actually had the idea of recruiting Enri.

But if you want Enri to master Command System Class and increase the level strength of the profession, you must at least have a small army for Enri to command and train.

But now Tang Zheng does not meet this condition.

"Sure enough, there are so many things to consider." Tang Zheng rubbed his Sun Anglerfish point with a headache.

"Ouch." Lesser Barghest raised his head and rubbed Tang Zheng's trouser leg.
