When he returned to the War Guild in the outer city, there were not many people there except for the two guards on duty. Seeing Garon leave, the two of them were surprised but didn't say anything.
After returning to his villa in the small district without any surprises or dangers, Garen realized that the entire small district he was in had become a paradise for his little pets. All the scattered monsters had been cleared away, leaving only large groups of monsters in the surroundings. There was no way to find a single monster to hunt.
It was drizzling and the clouds were gloomy.
Garon walked into the courtyard and the two Parasitic Beetles on guard bowed to him from both sides. The Giant Eagle on the roof, the Resonance Eagle, stood up from its nest and let out a clear whistle.
Garon took out the key to open the door and walked in. He closed the door behind him. Lala, who was dressed as a maid, took the gray robe from him and hung it on the clothes rack.
"You've worked hard." Lala said softly.
"You've adapted quickly." Garon joked.
He walked to the sofa and sat down. With Lala's help, he changed into a pair of clean slippers. He then took a sip of the prepared black tea.
"The tea is a little cold."
"Sorry, although there's water in the house, there's almost no firewood. I don't dare to use it." Lala stood aside and answered.
"That's a problem." Garon nodded. "I'll think of a way to deal with it. It's just that the smoke from the fire is a little obvious. See if there's any other way to deal with it."
"I'll try." Lala nodded hesitantly.
Garon drank the black tea slowly and closed his eyes as he leaned back on the sofa. After waiting for a while, he realized that Lala was still beside him. He opened his eyes again.
"Is there anything else?"
Lala held her white apron hesitantly.
"Although I've troubled you a lot, I still want to ask you something. But I still want to know, how are my family members doing in the inner city? And my friend, my only good friend, Beyonce. "
"There are too many people in the city and the branches are very messy. It's troublesome to find them." Garon frowned. "I have a lot of things to do too. As an exchange, you should think of a reward for me. If it's suitable, I'll deal with it."
"Alright." Lala nodded. "I'm very fortunate to have met an employer like you."
"You're welcome."
Garon picked up the cup of black tea and drained it in one gulp. He looked around the hall and saw that it was clean and tidy. He smiled with satisfaction.
"Then I'll go up first. If there's nothing else, please don't disturb me. Until dinner. "
"Alright."
Garon walked into the study and locked the door.
The windows of the study were not closed, and the wind blew the curtains up, bringing in traces of moisture.
He went over and slammed the window shut. He sat down at the table.
He took out the things he had gotten from the blonde woman and spread them out on the table.
A leather bag and a pamphlet.
The brown leather bag was about the size of a fist, and it was bulging. Who knew what was inside?
Garon tore open the knot on the bag and poured out everything inside.
What landed on the table was a large mess of various gemstones and jewelry. There were rings, rubies, diamonds, and even the rarest and most expensive amethyst.
Garon's face showed a hint of surprise.
"It's actually this?" He recognized the use of these gemstones and jewelry.
"Evolution gemstones … Various key primers that must be used during totem evolution. Red represents the direction of fire, purple represents random unknown directions, and diamonds represent natural evolution. You're really rich. "
Garon smiled with satisfaction.
"Although I don't need these things, other totem users definitely wouldn't mind having more of them. Amethyst is a necessary evolution primer for many totems. While using other resources to cultivate them, the key to evolution requires high quality gemstones as primers to guide them in the desired direction. Otherwise, the evolution will be chaotic, and it might even evolve into a completely useless ability. These things are good for trading with others. "
He put away these gemstones and a few pieces of jewelry for girls. Garon's gaze fell on another item.
A black leather pamphlet.
He gently flipped open the cover of the pamphlet. It was filled with dense handwriting. The handwriting was messy, and the order was messy. It was obvious that it was some sort of essay.
Garon flipped through it for a while, and browsed through all the words that he could recognize.
"Eh?" Suddenly, he sat up straight, and his gaze became serious, staring at a page of the pamphlet.
He took out the quill pen from the pen holder, and dipped it in the ink bottle.
He copied down this line of words on a piece of white paper.
'15th of March, what an interesting place. An old man who appears to be a rich businessman is actually a powerful totem user in secret. When the mission is completed, I'll find some people to kill him. Solidifying tactics are good stuff, and it's not something that an old man can keep. '
Garon copied down the name of the place at the back. It was a little blurry and messy, and difficult to recognize. Although it was written in Ender language, and he could recognize it, it was crooked, and difficult to recognize. However, he was sure that this place was within Iron Tank City.
He took out a map of Iron Tank City, and started to compare the names one by one. Soon, his index finger stopped at a place.
"Nister district, this is a famous immigrant district. The people who live there are all immigrants from the outside, and if they're not rich, then they're technical elites."
He kept the map, and memorized the name of the place. He looked at the sky outside.
"It's still early, I can go take a look."
After greeting Lala, he started to instruct the totems under him to prepare to leave.
After leaving the villa, he jumped to the top of the wall, and quietly looked at the totems under him.
The three heads of the giant eagle on the roof kept circling, and occasionally let out a threatening whistle, to warn the surrounding monsters in the sky that this was their territory.
On the ground, the deep swamp croc led eight beetles in a row in the courtyard.
Garon left two beetles to guard the house with the petrifying lizard, and took the other six beetles with him.
Then, he recalled the route on the map, and directly brought the group of totems, and slowly walked around the city wall.
Soon, the resonance eagle found a broken part of the city wall, and it seemed to have been broken by a giant monster.
Garon brought the croc and beetles in through the broken part, and it was the craftsman's district in the inner city.
Rows of white and grey single-story houses were connected together, built close to the city wall. There was no one inside, and it was quiet, except for the creaking sound of the wind blowing on the wooden doors and windows.
The ground was wet with black soil, and there were white bones and blood stains everywhere. There were many tools like hammers and iron blankets scattered in the blacksmith shop by the road. A few arrows were nailed to the pillars of the wooden houses.
Garon was surrounded by beetles and crocodiles, and quickly walked through this area.
After walking around the inner city buildings for a while, suddenly there was a soft voice in front of him.
"Jagula, Stindia!"
Garon frowned, and did not understand what it meant. It sounded like a local dialect, and was not the language of any of the three powerful countries.
He ignored it, and suddenly there was a woman's sobbing and crying from the direction of the voice.
The voice from before suddenly became cold, and seemed to be cursing the woman.
Garon ignored it, and directly went through this area. In this chaotic world, the strong were the ones with the greatest authority, and this kind of thing happened everywhere, and could be seen everywhere.
Very quickly, he passed through this area, and moved forward for a while, occasionally avoiding large groups of unihorn lizards flying in the sky. Although these monsters saw the silver totems as their own kind, and would not actively attack them, if they offended them, their own kind would also attack them.
Garon walked and avoided them, and only in the evening did the crossroads of the Nister Street faintly appear in front of him.
Along the way, he consecutively found six underground basements in the outer city where the survivors hid. Many of these underground basements had become the private kingdoms of the strong. They hid in the basements and became unprecedented kings, and wantonly enjoyed and trampled on the dignity and benefits of others.
Garon did not care about these people, and directly followed the address in his memory, and rushed towards the residence of the rich merchant in the street.
Very quickly, among the white buildings, a white house with a silver dome appeared in Garon's vision.
On the silver roof of the house, there was a huge white bat.
The bat's body was huge, at least five meters tall, and four meters wide. Two white wings lay on the roof, like two pieces of white cloth, and spread out to more than ten meters. From afar, it looked like a white glider.
Garon commanded the totems to spread out, and surround the silver-roofed building. This house was where the rich merchant lived, and it was obvious that this had become the monster's residence. The rich merchant was either in hiding, or had been killed.
Garon hid behind a broken wall, and quietly peeked out to size up the huge bat.
There was a black iron chain hanging from its furry neck, and at the end of the chain was a red ball of flesh made of a man's corpse, with blood dripping down from time to time.
Garon observed carefully, and found that the black iron chain seemed to have grown out of the bat's chest. It was not man-made.
He quietly released his aura, and the platinum ripples slowly spread out, covering the white bat's body.
Hiss!
The bat suddenly opened its eyes, as if it had felt something, and shook its head left and right, sizing up its surroundings.
A huge amount of blood and Qi spread out, and actually forced Garon's aura back.
Oh!
Garon groaned, and clutched his chest.
"There's actually a monster with such strong blood and Qi! Aura is the combination of my essence, Qi, and spirit, and it doesn't belong to this world. It can actually force my aura back by subconsciously circulating its blood and Qi. Amazing! With this level of blood and Qi, I reckon that in my previous life, normal bombs and missiles would not be able to kill it. Maybe only a nuclear bomb could kill it! "
This was the first time he had encountered such a situation. After he mastered the Divine Statue Technique, his blood and Qi had reached the limit of a human, and even the other wild creatures would not be much stronger than him. But this time, the bat he encountered had an incredibly strong blood and Qi, which meant that its vitality was extremely strong. If it could not be killed, it could quickly recover and make a comeback. This kind of monster with strong vitality was the hardest to deal with.
"If I want to go in, it seems that I have to kill this monster." Garon narrowed his eyes, and hid himself deeper.
With a thought, a black beetle slowly crawled into the courtyard of the house, and its ferocious mouth screeched at the bat provocatively.
Hiss!
The bat did not even look at the beetle, as if it did not exist. It bent down and prepared to rest. But when the beetle wanted to enter the building, the white bat suddenly let out a warning hiss.
Garon thought for a while, and secretly summoned the neon butterfly, and began to use the poison powder to smear all the claws of the Resonance Hawks, the Deep Swamp Crocs, and the beetles, one by one.
Although this bat was a mutated creature released by the Obscuro Society, it also had an offensive nature similar to the Totem Light, and its specific strength was unknown.
Garon took out the monster information he got from the War Guild and flipped through it.
