Dick was shocked:
By the gods, Geralt, who was repenting and apologizing just a moment ago, why is he now...
Weisha on the opposite side smiled sweetly and said, "Dick, don't you really want to come together? We are really just having fun together [Gwent]!"
"No, you can do whatever you want." Dick smiled helplessly and quickly waved his hand to refuse.
"Then my sister will be very disappointed, but she won't force it. Let's go in first. Goodbye."
"Dick, I will open a new room for you later, so you don't have to spend any more money." Leofu stood up and added.
"Thank you very much."
"We hit it off right away, so there's no need to be so polite."
Then Dick saw the twins carefully picking up a leather box behind the chair and taking it away. It should be their luggage. It was probably something valuable, otherwise it would have been placed in the room.
Seeing several people disappearing at the top of the stairs, Dick looked away:
Not to mention the surprising proposal at the end, Leofu makes people feel very comfortable, and he is also generous and willing to help her if she is in trouble.
Dick After sitting alone for a while, he came to the bar again and asked the boss to confirm the entrustment.
Sure enough, it is exactly the same as what Leofu said.
At this time, the boss looked to the left side of Dick, with a smile on his face, "Sir Brownie, why are you here?"
Dick then noticed a man next to him, wearing a knight's uniform and looking very young.
"Let me see how many good players there are in this tavern. Tomorrow Duke Yalike will personally lead the team to hunt dragons."
"You are very considerate." The boss complimented me again.
Brownie looked at Dick for a long time, with an incomprehensible expression. "Are you... the [Dick of Rinya City] who was recently personally sealed by Queen Meve?"
Dick nodded.
"Are you interested in participating in tomorrow's demon hunting commission?"
"You are?"
"I, Brownie, am the Duke's butler."
"Okay, I'll join, and I also have a fellow demon hunter."
"You two will gather at the gate of the city tomorrow and collect the entrustment money. This is five hundred Kelang. The Duke will probably give you a reward after the work is completed." Brownie then handed over a money bag.
Dick shook it slightly with his hand and then put it into his pocket.
"That's it, Dick, we'll see you tomorrow." Brownie walked directly out the door, ignoring the mercenaries.
Dick After asking the boss about his room, he walked upstairs. After entering the room, he took a hot bath before falling asleep slowly.
Early the next morning, Dick used his arms to block the ray of sunlight coming in from the window, squinting his eyes slightly before getting up lazily.
After washing up, I went downstairs and saw that there were far fewer customers in the tavern. I knew that the mercenaries had already gone to the city gate to wait for selection, while Geralt was sitting at a table looking out the window motionless.
"Where are Geralt, Leofu and them?"
"They left early because they had something to do. They knew you were still in your dream, so they didn't say hello to you."
"Do you want to go to the city gate with me later? Someone came to the tavern after you left yesterday. As long as the two of us go to the city gate, we can directly join the hunting party."
"My status as a professional demon hunter must have worked. We happened to have dinner together, so let's go check it out."
The two of them had a simple breakfast, steaming milk, and half-open and half-soft Western-style dumplings.
Dick was eating dumplings and glanced at Geralt opposite him from time to time.
The latter could maintain a sculptural expression at first, but he couldn't stand Dick's frequent peeks, and finally couldn't help but say, "Dick, do you have something to say?"
"I'm just a little curious about your relationship with Little Yennefer, Alice and the two sisters from yesterday."
Geralt sighed and put down his knife and fork:
"Except for Little Yennefer, I have a pure [friendship] with everyone else.
"Dick, we are all demon hunters. As immortals, we will encounter many temptations in our lives. Of course, we will experience more pain in the world. Sometimes, pure relationships will be like good medicine to make up for our shortcomings in body and mind. As immortals, we pay more attention to spiritual communication."
Seeing Dick's mouth curled downward, Geralt said helplessly:
"Forget it, you are still young, you will understand later."
Dick didn't say anything, he just ate faster.
After a while, the two of them finished their meal and walked directly towards the city gate without paying the bill.
The breakfast fee Leofu has been paid in advance.
Dick always feels that after helping Geralt at the city gate yesterday and drinking with Leofu, Geralt's attitude towards him has improved a lot and is no longer so cold.
This is a good thing. Not to mention that Geralt is the protagonist of the game, and there should be great opportunities around him. Just talking about Geralt's character...
According to the consistent style of the game company [Zumahu], Geralt is not an anti-hero, but a traditional hero, strong in force, righteous, cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
Aside from the 'friendship' issues between men and women, he is a reliable friend.
In a simple sentence:
People are ruthless and don't talk much. I'll hunt you Brother Jie.
The distance between the tavern and the city gate is not that far away. The two of them chatted for a while and soon reached their destination.
But I saw a group of people gathered 200 meters southeast of the city gate.
This group of people is divided into two clearly defined groups.
On one side is Brownie, whom Dick saw yesterday, and more than 30 cavalry infantrymen with him. In front of Brownie, there is another figure with his back to Dick.
This man was about 1.9 meters tall, carrying a giant sword about 1.5 meters long on his back. He was wearing a pair of plate armor and his body was very wide, almost the same as Tyson.
On the other side, there were dozens of mercenaries together, and this group of mercenaries was vaguely divided into two small groups.
One is the common mercenaries, who are dressed in various styles and have various weapons.
One of them had a long leather whip covered with short barbs on his waist. This was a group of miscellaneous mercenaries.
A few steps away from them, there were several mercenaries in full armor. They all carried steel square shields behind them and were wearing heavy armor. They even wore face armor on their heads to block their faces.
Dick I always feel that these fully armored mercenaries look neatly arranged and seem to be more regular than regular soldiers.
One of the mercenaries was surrounded by the remaining mercenaries in full armor, and he should be their captain.
So I counted the number secretly, and found exactly ten.
Brownie was standing on the ground talking to someone. When he saw two demon hunters arriving, he quickly smiled and said:
"We're just waiting for you two. Why don't you introduce yourself to the group of mercenaries now so that you can get used to them so that you can cooperate well when you go hunting for dragons in the valley later?"
"No need!" someone in the mercenary group shouted. Dick turned around and saw that he was one of the mercenaries wearing colorful clothes.
"We can't compare to these extremely powerful demon hunters. No matter how hard we try, it's useless. Besides, we have our own ways to deal with that evil dragon."
And one of the 10 mercenaries wearing face armor also shook his head.
"Okay, Dick, do you have any questions? If there are no questions, we will set off."
Dick was answering when a woman walked out from behind the wide-bodied soldier. A gust of wind blew in her face, accompanied by the smell of cloves.
