Wind Spear Hills. Cuimi City.
This was a city with a long history. Although it had been destroyed several times in war, it was eventually rebuilt by people. This was a city very close to the Wind Spear Hills and also a city close to the forest elves. Now the Avatar Crisis had also caused a lot of impact on this city. Refugee camps could be seen outside the city. However, Cuimi City was better than other places in that it had a good garrison, so there was not much loss in the attack of the demons.
Tremont Tavern.
A tall figure pushed the door and walked in. Although she was covered with a cloak, one could still see the exquisite curves of her body and fiery red long hair. This was a female adventurer, and a very beautiful one at that. Many other people in the tavern turned their heads, and some frivolous men couldn't help but whistle. But when the other party glanced at them coldly, these people immediately shrank their necks and stopped talking.
That was a very dangerous gaze.
And as adventurers who had been on the knife's edge all year round, they knew very well that this kind of gaze often meant that the other party was a woman who had been stained with a lot of blood.
This woman was very strong, and they couldn't afford to provoke her.
The tall and seductive woman glanced around the tavern, and then her eyes fell on a man sitting in the corner.
It was a rather down-and-out middle-aged adventurer with a face full of whiskers. The equipment on his body was a bit shabby, and it seemed that it had not been repaired for a long time.
"Are you Andre?"
The beautiful woman with fiery red long hair came directly in front of the middle-aged adventurer, then sat opposite him unceremoniously, and said directly: "Looking at the scar on your neck, you should be Andre Lott?"
The middle-aged man's expression was quite alert. He involuntarily pressed his hand on the hilt and said in a deep voice: "Who are you? Why do you know me? "
He was just an unknown adventurer.
Although he lived all the way to middle-age, except for leaving scars all over his body, he didn't accumulate much wealth. Many adventurers wanted to earn a lot of money when they were young, and then live a quiet life as a noble manor owner in their old age. But in fact, there were very few adventurers who could do this. Most of them were strong and lucky. Most of them were adventurers like Andre. When they reached middle age, they had no choice but to give up adventuring and find a place to live in seclusion and become a member of the guards.
The red-haired woman glanced at him indifferently and then showed him a token.
It was a black token, and the emblem on it represented one of the most famous places in the outer islands.
"Modo! … "
The middle-aged man couldn't help but let out a cry of surprise, and then he quickly suppressed it as if he realized something. However, his voice still trembled with a trace of excitement and fear. He looked at the red-haired woman in front of him with a respectful expression and said respectfully, "Your Excellency! … "
"What business do you have with me?"
Andre couldn't help but call her Your Excellency. Because of the iconic fiery red long hair of the woman in front of him, he couldn't help but think of a legendary figure. Although she rarely appeared at present, there was still such a figure among the pirate leaders in Modo city, and she was the only woman among the many pirate leaders in Modo city.
Thinking of this, Andre couldn't help but swallow, and he recalled something that happened some time ago.
The red-haired woman waved to the bartender to bring the most expensive wine here. This kind of tequila that cost 3 Kindler for a glass was not something Andre could afford at all, but these seemed to be nothing to the red-haired woman in front of him. She first motioned for Andre to have a drink, then slowly said, "I heard that you have news of an interesting thing in your hands."
"I came to you personally for this matter."
The red-haired woman's attitude was very casual, but Andre's heart sank, and then he couldn't help but become nervous.
It was really for this thing!
Andre couldn't help but show a wry smile. As expected, he shouldn't have said that after drinking. Although he tried to deny it afterward, some people had already noticed him.
The red-haired woman picked up the expensive tequila and just glanced at it, then slowly said, "To be honest, even if you know where this thing is, it's not something you can get with your strength."
"It's better to tell us the news in exchange for some more reasonable rewards."
"At your age, it's time to arrange your future for yourself. Are you going to learn from those guys who can't even pick up a sword when they're old and poor until they die? "
The red-haired woman's words made Andre hesitated.
But then the other party's words destroyed his last trace of hope. The red-haired woman slowly said, "Sir Søren must also be very interested in this thing you know."
Sir Søren!
Andre's expression changed drastically. To an adventurer like him, this name was a legend that he didn't even dare to imagine. If that Sir wanted to obtain this item, the fact that this red-haired lady was still sitting in front of him and chatting with him was already a very generous attitude.
"What can I get?"
Andre swallowed hard. He knew that he should take a stand at this moment. Otherwise, he might not be able to walk out of this tavern. He thought about it seriously and said, "If I tell you the news, what can I get?"
The red-haired woman couldn't help but smile. She seemed to be very satisfied with Andre's attitude, and slowly said, "Two choices."
"30,000 Kindler."
"Or I can recommend you to find a position in the army of Mordor city. I think you should be competent with your strength."
30,000 Kindler.
This was definitely a very amazing wealth for ordinary people. It was enough for Andre to buy a manor and live comfortably like a noble for the rest of his life.
However!
Now was the time of the Avatar Crisis. Sometimes money was not as useful as it used to be.
Andre couldn't help but show a bitter smile. Even if he got so much money now, could he guarantee that he would be alive to spend it? Not to mention those adventurers who might be jealous, just the attack of the devils could kill him at any time. Now the manors outside were cheaper than the previous one. The nobles tried their best to get rid of the manors and live in the city because the defensive power of the manors was not enough to fight against the wandering devils.
So he thought about it and made a choice, "I choose to join the army of Mordor city."
Join Mordor city.
This was a very tempting choice. Although it could not bring Andre a lot of wealth, it could give him a higher status.
And Mordor city itself was a very special place.
"Very good."
The red-haired woman smiled. She was not surprised by Andre's choice and said slowly, "A very wise choice."
"So."
"Now you can tell me where the legendary [Bodian's Sword] is?"
