The newbie who met Kieran before wasn't nervous at the gazes from the other lone wolves in the inn. Instead, he nodded at each of them.
The other lone wolves also nodded at him.
It seemed like both of them were quite familiar with each other.
"Hurry up, Garwen! What's going on?"
Lawless urged.
"Blair, why don't you tell him?"
The lone wolf named Garvin turned around and revealed the players who had been following him.
Compared to Garwen's steadiness, the player was undoubtedly very nervous.
Not only was he short of breath, but he was also trembling.
Especially when he looked at Kieran, his eyes couldn't help but dodge Kieran's gaze.
His dodging piqued Kieran's curiosity.
"Have we met before?"
Kieran looked at Blair and asked.
"Yes, I saw him once."
Before this, I accepted a mission from someone to keep an eye on a certain room. "
Blair stuttered.
"Someone? A certain room? "
Kieran squinted his eyes and instantly thought of that cunning merchant and the battle back then.
The others around him were also familiar with the scene.
Instantly, they looked at Blair in a different light.
Blair immediately sensed the difference. He, who was already very nervous, immediately became even more nervous.
However, he didn't forget to explain.
"I-I don't mean any harm.
I was just hired back then, I don't have any malicious thoughts.
I can attest to that. "
Garwen stood up and spoke up for his friend.
"Garwen, are you sure?"
Lawless asked.
His expression and tone weren't as playful as usual. The others were also extremely serious.
They were familiar with Garwen and were willing to trust him.
But because of that, they were worried that something would happen …
Lies!
The reason why lone wolves became lone wolves was because of their natural disposition.
Some were born to be loners, like Kieran.
Some of them were nurtured, such as the people around him.
They had more or less tried to form teams to complete dungeon runs, but in the end, they became lone wolves.
As for what happened?
It was self-explanatory.
They who walked alone in the dungeon world did not become a recluse. On the contrary, they cherished every single person they could call a 'friend'.
Therefore, they were happy to stay at the Harvest Tavern.
Staying in this place with friends, where they can relax.
They don't want any accidents to happen here.
Whether it was a person or an object.
"I'm sure."
Garvin took a deep breath and enunciated each word clearly.
He took out the oath contract that he had prepared earlier and signed his name on it. Blair didn't hesitate either.
Looking at the oath contract with their names on it, the atmosphere in the tavern relaxed a little.
Rhino walked towards Blair with a glass of wine.
"Blair?"
"Rhinoceros!"
Rhino gave a simple introduction and passed the wine glass in his hand to Blair.
"I'm Blair … cough cough."
Blair said as he extended his hand to the rhinoceros. Then, he tilted his neck and drank all the wine in the cup. However, Blair drank too quickly. He only drank half of it before he started coughing.
This scene caused the surrounding people to burst into laughter.
He didn't mean to mock her.
It was just kind laughter.
Amidst the laughter, Blair clearly felt the barrier between him and the other lone wolves swiftly vanish.
He was blending into this special group.
Huu!
Blair heaved a long sigh.
Although he had his friend's promise, Blair truly heaved a sigh of relief at this moment.
After all, he was facing the Flaming Devil who killed without batting an eyelid!
Rumor had it that hundreds and thousands of players died in his hands and all of them died horribly.
Even Broker, who could almost rule the whole big city, wasn't a match for the Flaming Devil. He was forced to temporarily hide and recuperate.
Once he thought about how he was once enemies with the Flaming Devil, Blair felt terrible.
He had been thinking about how to redeem his relationship with the Flaming Devil.
Especially after he broke away from his original way of clearing dungeon worlds and became a lone wolf, the need to redeem his relationship with the Flaming Devil became more urgent.
He didn't want to be drinking and chatting with his friend in Harvest Tavern a moment ago only to be killed by the Flaming Devil the next moment.
Coincidentally, an opportunity presented itself in front of him at this moment.
Blair thought he had to seize the chance.
So, he told his friend everything.
His friend didn't disappoint him though. Not only did he support him fully, he even helped him strategize.
At first, Blair was reluctant to sign the contract.
After he became a true lone wolf, he hated any kind of restriction.
But he chose to listen to his friend's advice.
Now, feeling the kindness around him, Blair was glad that he made the right choice.
He sorted out his thoughts and started to speak.
"I was considered half a mercenary before this.
Other than completing my own dungeon world, I would occasionally get some easier missions from the transit station. The mission to tail Hon. 2567 was also from the transit station.
Although I've become a lone wolf now, I still have some habits: I'll check the transit station from time to time.
"Before I came to the inn, I noticed someone had placed a bounty on Sir 2567's head at the transit station — the kind of bounty that must be killed.
Blair was still a little cautious around Kieran, but the others didn't care.
However, the people around them didn't care about this. They were completely attracted by Blair's words.
The transit station was similar to a mission posting platform, but most of the missions were posted by the players themselves.
No information would be left in the transit station, only the contents of the mission would be announced, and when the mission was completed, the player would get his revenge.
No one would break the contract.
Because when the mission was posted, the person who posted the mission would sign the contract through the system.
The contract was mostly like: I, XXX, will pay whatever reward to any player who completed my mission, no cheating, no lying, etc.
Under the premise of such a contract, the "transit station" became honest and reliable.
Kieran knew about the transit station.
And he was very clear about it.
This was because there was a similar transit point in the Harvest Tavern.
This' transfer station 'was far more famous than the other' transfer stations'.
It wasn't just because it was managed by someone, unlike the other transit stations which were unmanned and hidden in the big market.
It was also because the posting of a mission in the transit station required a high fee.
Kieran had posted a mission before as well.
But it was the first time he had a bounty on the list.
"A bounty on his head?
How much is it? "
Kieran asked with a hint of interest.
"5 million Points!"
Blair answered.
