After leaving the blacksmith shop, An Nuo went straight to the Guangyue Tavern.
The battle with the giant slime in the morning had consumed too much energy and he was already hungry.
Before arriving at the Kozuki Tavern, I could see from afar that it was packed with people, and there was even a long queue outside.
"What's going on?"
An Nuo was a little confused. Is the business of the Kozuki Tavern always so popular?
It’s almost one o’clock in the afternoon, and there are still so many people queuing!
An Nuo observed and found that the people who came to the restaurant to eat and those queuing outside were basically young men.
People outside looked inside from time to time, as if they were looking for someone.
"Brother, is there a discount at the Guangyue Tavern today? Why are there so many people?" An Nuo walked to the end of the line and patted the young man in front of him.
The person being photographed turned around and saw a ragged man standing behind him with a look of disgust on his face.
But soon, he caught a glimpse of the dagger at Annuo's waist and immediately put on a smile.
"Brother, the people who came to the Guangyue Tavern today did not come for food. They came for two beauties!"
An Nuo frowned and repeated, "Two beauties?"
“That’s right!”
The young man pointed at the Guangyue Tavern and said excitedly, "I wonder where Uncle Lun brought back these two women. They are so beautiful, with black hair and black eyes. They are exotic beauties!
I have never seen a woman with black hair and black eyes in my life, and I don’t know which country they are from!
Hey, why do you have black hair too?"
As the young man was speaking, he suddenly got stuck.
Because he found that the man in front of him, who looked a bit difficult to deal with, also seemed to have black hair and black eyes!
An Nuo looked at the long line in front of him and said speechlessly: "Just for this?"
He also has black hair. How come he hasn't caused any sensation after being active in this small town for two days where people have all kinds of hair colors except black?
"At the end of the day, men are all LSPs!"
Anno shook his head and prepared to leave and buy some black bread.
After all, judging from the situation, it wouldn’t be his turn to eat even if he waited another hour.
But just as Anno was about to leave, a commotion suddenly broke out in the tavern.
The diners in the tavern suddenly stood up and rushed out of the tavern.
While running, he reminded others: "Bully Harry is in there!"
The people queuing outside didn't understand what was going on at first, but after hearing this, they ran away.
After a while, the Kozuki Tavern, which was crowded just now, became deserted.
An Nuo felt something was wrong and was about to leave, but then he remembered his two compatriots who worked in the tavern - let's just count them as compatriots.
“Let’s go and have a look!”
An Nuo placed his right hand on the hilt of the sword and walked over slowly.
"Hahaha, two beauties, as long as you follow me, Harry, I promise that you will have a worry-free life and you won't have to work as waitresses in this shabby tavern anymore!"
"Stinky man, let me go, let me go!"
"Woo, woo, Uncle Lun, save us!"
As soon as he walked into the tavern, An Nuo heard the conversation inside.
An Nuo glanced around and found that the tavern, which was not very big to begin with, was now in a mess.
There were overturned tables and chairs and spilled food and wine everywhere.
The table in the middle of the tavern was the only one that had not been overturned, and five men with knives on their waists stood next to it.
One of them was less than 1.7 meters tall, with shoulder-length blond hair, a pointed chin, a lewd smile on his face, and each hand grasping a delicate arm.
As expected, the two people who were caught were the exotic beauties who attracted the attention of men in the town - Lu Yan and Liu Rongrong.
Lu Yan was struggling to break free from the wretched man's grip, but the latter was stronger than her and she couldn't break free at all.
Liu Rongrong's face was filled with fear, tears streaming down her face. She turned her head to ask for help from a middle-aged man who was kneeling on the ground and shivering.
An Nuo recognized the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground. He was Lun, the owner of the Kozuki Tavern!
The situation is clear at a glance.
The two women's extraordinary looks attracted the attention of people with bad intentions, and the bad guys were not ordinary people, which led to the current situation.
When An Nuo was observing the situation in the tavern, the people in the tavern were also looking at An Nuo in surprise.
Harry winked at someone next to him, who immediately kicked the stool at his feet in front of An Nuo and shouted fiercely, "Are you deaf? Didn't you hear Lord Harry say that this place is closed? Get out of here!"
Annuo shifted his gaze to the person who was speaking, and the information on the panel was clearly visible.
Name: Burton
Race: Human
Level: 3
Occupation: Trainee Warrior
Skills: [Basic Sword Skills]
Talent: None
Burton has gray-brown hair, a long face, and is 1.8 meters tall. He is not tall, but not thin either.
After all, he is a third-level trainee fighter.
Looking at the others, he found that except Harry, they were all level 3 apprentice warriors, and their skills were all [Basic Sword Skills].
Harry's rank is the highest among the five.
Name: Harry
Race: Human
Level: 4
Occupation: Trainee Warrior
Skills: [Basic Sword Skills] [Sweep]
Talent: None
Harry's level is the same as Anno's, and his occupation is the same as his lackey's, both are apprentice warriors.
The skill has been expanded to include [Sweep].
Around the necks of the five men were hung almost identical sword seals.
However, the distance was too far, and Annuo could not clearly see the sword engraved on the seal.
But it is obvious that these five people are all professionals!
No wonder Uncle Lun and the diners in the tavern didn't dare to intervene. After all, they were just ordinary people and dared not go against professionals.
Even An Nuo was considering whether to offend them for the two women.
This was the first time that Annuo had seen professionals other than the guards and the old priest since he entered the town of Gruul.
He is weak now, still in the development stage, and is not clear about the other party's background, so he does not want to cause trouble.
"Lord Harry, could you please let these two girls go? They are my friends!" An Nuo hesitated for a while, but when he saw the two girls looking at him for help, he asked tentatively.
When the two women heard Annuo's words, complex expressions of joy and worry appeared on their faces.
They saw it when An Nuo came in.
If it were normal, the two would definitely be very happy - they kept praying in their hearts that Annuo was safe, and wanted to thank Annuo in person for leading the goblins away.
But the current situation is somewhat special. Even if An Nuo gets involved, he will most likely just be beaten up by Harry and others.
Just now, there was a diner in the tavern who couldn't stand Harry's opinion and wanted to be a hero to save the beauty, but he was knocked down by Burton with a few punches and then dragged out by others.
Anno is not very big and looks like he is no match for Burton!
Now that Anno has spoken up for them, he will most likely be beaten by Burton.
"So you know me!"
Harry laughed when he heard An Nuo's words, but then his expression changed and he said angrily, "Since you know that it is Master Harry who is doing the work here, how dare you cause trouble here?"
When Harry first saw the dagger on Annuo's waist, he was a little cautious, thinking that the other party was also a professional.
But then he noticed that Anno was dressed in rags and his hair was messy, like a pariah from the slums.
Moreover, there was no professional seal on his body, which meant that Annuo was not a professional!
He believed that the other party's weapon was just a pretense and not worth mentioning, so he ordered: "Burton, cripple one of his hands and see if he dares to meddle in other people's business again!"
"Yes, sir!"
Burton responded, rubbing his hands and walking towards Anno, sneering, "Boy, don't think you can be a hero and save the damsel in distress just by holding a weapon. Lord Harry is not someone a country bumpkin like you can afford to offend."
As he said this, he reached out to snatch the dagger from Annuo's waist.
A dagger usually costs at least seven or eight silver coins. If you grab it and sell it, you can get a lot of money.
He did this kind of snatching thing a lot when he was with Harry.
Not to mention country folk like Anno, even in Valkham, they have snatched those poor trainee warriors who have chosen a profession, learned skills, but no mercenary group or army is willing to accept them!
Without background and strength, they can only endure it even if they are robbed.
But obviously, he picked the wrong target this time.
When Burton approached to grab the dagger, Annuo raised his leg and kicked Burton, knocking him away. After knocking down several tables and chairs, he lay on the ground, holding his stomach and wailing.
