Chapter 9 Shitang Town (Part 1)

"No need to go, Pluto will not wait for you to go back to catch him. Remember my words, you must be calm when encountering problems in the future. I forgive you for this incident. After all, Pluto has always been your leader, and you have something to do with him. It is inevitable to have scruples. But if the same mistake occurs next time during the mission, you should understand what the consequences will be."

     After listening to the Lord, he would not punish himself and others. Mie Yi was overjoyed and replied respectfully: "Yes, Lord, thank you for your forgiveness." The nine surviving members of the extermination team knelt down at the same time. Land, relieved.

     "Okay, you go down. From now on, you are not allowed to leave the headquarters for a year. You have to find reasons to deal with your identity. The organization is now missing Pluto, and it is in urgent need of improvement in strength. You must Practice hard, do you understand Mie Yi? You will temporarily take over Pluto's position as the leader of the killing team. If there are any changes in the future, I will inform you."

     "Yes, Your Majesty." The nine members of the extermination team bowed respectfully to the darkness at the same time and then retreated.

     Silence returned to the room. After a long time, a gloomy voice sounded, "Lord, this seems to be against the rules. Are you going to let Mie Yi and the others go like this?"

     The disembodied voice said: "You don't understand, the extermination team has made a lot of contributions to the organization, and now is the time to recruit people. Don't you know how much experience it takes to train an exterminator-level killer?" Although the nine of them together are not as good as Pluto, who is known as the mainland's number one killer, there is no problem in assassinating some high-level magicians. Pluto was originally my most valued one, but it's a pity that he still hasn't become a killer. The highest state of ruthlessness and desirelessness. Pass my order and pay a lot of money to let the thieves union find the whereabouts of Pluto. If you want to see the person in life, you want to see the body in death. At the same time, pass on my nine-star killing order, so that the Yuan Kill Team can be found at any time. Be on standby. As soon as the whereabouts of Pluto are known, move out immediately and don't survive. Pluto who has been poisoned by the Wuer Holy Water has no use value anymore."

     "Yes, Your Majesty." The red light in the dark room flashed away.

     The Lord murmured to himself: "Pluto wants to fight me, but you are still too far behind."

     A month after Owen and Dumb left the Forest of Psychedelic, the magic flame warlock Coris came back. His mood was extremely heavy. The time was almost up. Even after three months of careful consideration, he still couldn't be completely cruel. He was used to being lonely, but since Ah-Dai came, a lot of colors have been added to his life. Ah-Dai's kindness and simplicity deeply touched his heart. The experiment still had to be done, and he could not give up his decades-long wish. With a conflicting mood, he came back again. In one month, it would be April of the ninth year of the sacred calendar. According to Coris' calculation, it would be Now comes that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This month, he must be ruthless in order to successfully fulfill his long-cherished wish.

     "Ah-Dai, Ah-Dai, I'm back." Corris shouted loudly in the direction of the wooden house. Although he didn't want to admit it in his heart, he did still miss Ah-Dai very much.

     After calling several times without getting the answer he deserved, Coris was shocked and quickly walked into the wooden house where Ah-Dai lived. Everything was the same as when he left, without any changes, but Ah-Dai was missing. Walking to the bed, he threw the stone aside and picked up the two letters on the bed. A sense of foreboding filled his heart. He eagerly opened one letter, and at first glance, the flying words on the letter couldn't have been written by Dumb.

     "Hello, brother Corris. Although we have never met, we have been friends for a long time. The day before yesterday, I was chased here. Fortunately, I was saved by my disciple. I am deeply grateful. Brother's research is deeply admired by my younger brother, Dumb. Use the method you studied to help me temporarily frighten the poison of Wuer Holy Water. I suddenly discovered that there is an extremely powerful vitality in Dumb's body, which is very suitable for learning my Kung Fu. Since my Kung Fu has been greatly reduced, in order to avenge the bloody sea, I have no choice but to use my brother's life to force my disciple Ah-Dai to leave. When Ah-Dai succeeds, I will let him come back, join my brother, and serve on the left and right. But I remember you, so I leave this letter. I am no better than him. Worry. You must treat him kindly. I hope my brother will see what he can do." The last sign was, Pluto nodded.

     Corris's hands trembled. Pluto, Pluto, even though he rarely had contact with the world, he was still very familiar with this name. He was the number one killer in the mainland who became famous thirty years ago. He killed countless people in his life and never failed. . A Pluto sword kills all the masters in the world. The description of "Pluto flashes and the earth shakes, and Pluto flashes again makes ghosts and gods startle" is not an exaggeration at all. No one can escape his pursuit. He is the ace killer of the Killer Guild. As early as the third century Ten years ago, he had reached the level of exterminator.

     "He, how could he be taken away by Pluto?" In Corris's heart, Pluto was definitely a much more evil person than him, and a feeling of worry filled his chest. Countless questions were flashing in Corris's mind. Why was Hades here? It was not surprising that he was being hunted. After all, he had killed so many people, so he must have enemies all over the world. However, who had the ability to kill him? What about the poison of holy water? As a killer, he is the most vigilant. Moreover, why did he want to capture Ah-Dai again? Judging from what he said in the letter, it seemed that he did not have any ill intentions towards Ah-Dai, but was prepared to teach him all he had learned. At this time, Coris was full of worries about Ah-Dai's safety, and he never thought that if Ah-Dai was gone, his experiment would no longer be able to continue.

     In the midst of extreme doubts, Corris opened another letter. He recognized at a glance that the slanted handwriting was Ah-Dai's handwriting. After careful identification, the content of the letter was finally clear. The general content of the letter was It means: "Teacher, I am Dumb. Yesterday I saved a person. He insisted on taking me away, saying that he wanted to teach me some skills. I really don't want to go, Teacher, I really don't want to go. Dumb is willing to be with you. Together, you are the best person in the world to me. However, the person I rescued said that if I don't go with him, he will kill you. Although Ah-Dai is unwilling to leave the teacher, Ah-Dai is even more unwilling to see I want to die with the teacher in mind. Teacher, Ah-Dai really likes you. In order to keep you safe, Ah-Dai can only go with him. Teacher, your formula to suppress the Holy Water of Uniqueness was successful. The person I saved has no chance of life for the time being. Worry. Teacher, one day when you were not paying attention, I used a little silver tin from you and left a steamed bun that you brought me last time when you came back. Whenever I miss you, I will look at it. Teacher, if you want to be dumb, just call me loudly, and dumb will definitely hear you. Teacher, that person said that after letting me learn his kung fu, he will let me back. You must take care of yourself. After dumb comes back, I will serve you well. Teacher, I have washed your clothes and put them in your cabinet. I used some of your ingredients when I rescued that man. Please forgive me. Don't forget to eat some fruit when you do the experiment. Oh. You are getting older. You can't do it without eating well. Teacher, I'm leaving. You wait for me and you must wait for Dumb to come back. When I come back, you must teach me magic again. Teacher, goodbye. Dumb, let's go. Please take care of yourself." On the last line of the letter, he wrote, I will always think of you, Dumb. There were a few wrinkles on the letter paper, which were marks of being soaked by water. Of course, Coris knew that those were the tears left by Ah-Dai before he left. Although there are many illogical sentences in the letter, the words "teacher" and every word are filled with Ah-Dai's endless longing for him.

     The letter in his hand fell to the ground, and two lines of tears flowed down his face. He never thought that the silly boy Dumb, who had only been with him for less than a year, would have such deep feelings for him. The tears left by Coris were tears of regret. At this moment, it seemed that his long-cherished wish was no longer important. He suddenly ran outside the house and shouted: "Dumb, come back, come back quickly, teacher, teach you." Magic, teach you alchemy, come back soon, the teacher won't do experiments on you anymore." He regretted, he really regretted in his heart, why he had to leave here, why he was so selfish, what a good boy Duan is, brother In Reese's life, no one had ever been so sincere to him.

     Old Coris sat down on the ground with tears streaming down his face. He was sitting where Ah-Dai was waiting for him every day. For a whole day, Coris did not move, and the surroundings were shrouded in mist as always. During this day, Coris thought of many things. When night fell, he stood up holding on to the wooden wall behind him. His stiff body made him Looking even older, "Ah-Dai, you have to come back quickly. The teacher has already made a decision. When you come back, you will be my real student." Coris felt extremely painful deep in his heart, even for his biological brother. He has never had such an unusually strong longing, "The teacher has given you too little. As long as you can come back, you will definitely see what the teacher has done for you."

     Coris turned around and staggered into the wooden house. His lonely back looked so thin. This old man who has been obsessed with alchemy his whole life finally understands the true meaning of emotion.

     After a month of long journey, Owen and Duan finally arrived at Shitang Town, a seaside town located in the easternmost part of the Solo Federation from the westernmost tip of the mainland. This place belongs to the Xibo tribe, the weakest of the six major races in the Solo Federation. In the past month, Irving bought a horse, and almost everything was done on horseback. He traveled at dawn and stayed overnight, trying to take remote roads. Every time he passed a city, Irving would change horses. Even so, it was quite difficult. Even though they crossed the continent, it still took them more than thirty days to reach their destination.

     The six races of the Solo Federation are the most powerful nomadic tribe, the Yalian tribe. The Yalian tribe are all composed of black people. Although black people are very marginalized by other races on the mainland, it is undeniable that The black race has the strongest body and perseverance. As a nomadic people, they have the most powerful cavalry on the continent. The Yalian tribe occupies nearly one-third of the plain area in the Solo Federation. They are in a dominant position in the federation. Their territory is located in the westernmost part of the federation, bordering the Tianjin Empire to the north, the Huasheng Empire to the south, and the Holy See to the west. To the southeast of the Yalian tribe, there is the Tianyuan tribe that borders only the Huasheng Empire. In fact, this place is composed of many minority races. It is precisely because of this that they compare themselves to the miniature form of the entire continent, giving their race He took the same name as the mainland, Tianyuan. The area where the Tianyuan clan is located can be said to be the most complex place on the continent. There are no plains at all here. Most of them are hills and large forests. The dwarves, elves, winged humans and half-orcs have always been independent of the world. , live a peaceful life, but that does not mean that they can only be slaughtered by others. The coalition formed by dwarves who are good at forging, elves who are natural archers, winged men with the ability to fly at high speeds, and orcs who are extremely powerful, is definitely the elite of the Solo Federation. They are collectively called the Tianyuan Clan, and major issues within the clan are resolved through consultations between the four major races. In the northeast of the Yalian tribe, most of the Yajin tribe is composed of white people. Most of the people here migrated from the Tianjin Empire and reproduced with other races in the Suoyu Federation. After generations of development, It has finally reached its current scale. In the area of the Yajin tribe, almost like the Tianjin Empire, there are cities everywhere. They are also the most developed race in the Solo Federation. Directly to the east of the Yalian tribe is the Puyan tribe, the second largest race in the Suoyu Federation. The Puyan tribe is a mysterious race. They rarely communicate with other races. Unless something big happens in the Suoyu Federation, they generally live a self-sufficient life. life. The Puyan tribe's abundant weapons are their largest source of economic income. To the north of the Puyan tribe is the Red Hurricane tribe. The people there are fierce and their red hair is their biggest characteristic. The Red Hurricane tribe is the birthplace of the mercenary union. The largest mercenary group on the mainland, the Red Hurricane Mercenary Group, is completely Made up of Red Hurricane people. The easternmost point of the Federation, and also the easternmost point of the mainland, is the Xibo tribe where Owen and Ah-Dai came. The Xibo tribe is a simple and kind-hearted tribe. The tribesmen generally make a living by fishing. Their greatest strength is that they can communicate with A fleet that any country on the continent can compete with. Among the six major races in the Solo Federation, only the Xibo tribe relies on the support of other races. Otherwise, their clan strength is not enough to maintain a large fleet. Therefore, there are often sightings in the Xibo tribe. Other races in the Solo Federation.
