Ruan Xin stared blankly at the dark-skinned man in front of her. "Do I even know you?"
The clothes look like someone from my old neighborhood, but this place is miles away from my old neighborhood. It can't be such a coincidence, right?
“Ruan Xin. The proprietress of the residential complex!” Liu Nian accurately identified the proprietress.
Holy crap, it really is him!
This man seems to be doing quite well; he's already a bronze-level mercenary.
Mercenary points can be accumulated by doing low-level missions, but the assessment missions are extremely disgusting.
Those who can now successfully advance are all exceptional masters, one in ten thousand, and they are also the targets that various forces are trying their best to win over.
In the blink of an eye, Ruan Xin had weighed the pros and cons. What was that brat just saying? He got married? What about my friend Wu Qiong? Who's the official wife?
Liu Nian, unaware of what Ruan Xin was thinking, greeted her with a shrug and prepared to leave, noticing Ruan Xin's distorted expression.
"where you go?"
"where you go?"
Two voices called out in unison from behind.
"Is it any of your business?" Liu Nian looked at the proprietress speechlessly. "We're not that close, are we?"
"Go accept the mission," Liu Nian said to Zhou Momo.
“If we go now, it will be dark by the time we leave the city,” Zhou Momo said, looking at Liu Nian with some concern.
"It's nothing serious, just take care of yourself," Liu Nian said, looking at her.
"Take care." Zhou Momo knew he was powerful, and she still had to pack her luggage, so she didn't want to take up any more of his time.
"You too." Liu Nian nodded at her and left, completely ignoring Ruan Xin's presence.
"You two seem to have a good relationship," the landlady said indirectly as she watched Zhou Momo go upstairs, feeling ignored.
"Yeah, we're very familiar with each other," Zhou Momo said casually.
"Tell me about it," Ruan Xin said, scratching his head in frustration at the seemingly pointless suggestion.
Zhou Momo's lips curled into a sneer as she looked at the proprietress with displeasure.
Seemingly unaware that he had said something wrong, Ruan Xin unleashed his trump card.
"If the story is good, the rent can be reduced a bit."
Seeing that Ruan Xin's expression didn't seem fake, Zhou Momo felt a little more reassured. Ruan Xin noticed this and continued to push the issue, driven by his burning gossip spirit—oops, I mean, for his friend's happiness.
Breakfast is included every day!
"Fine, I'll tell you!" You're a devil! Zhou Momo was defeated.
Back in the Adventurer's Hall, Liu Nian can now accept Fd-level quests.
Based on Liu Nian's understanding of missions, they can be roughly divided into several categories: clearing, escorting, attacking, and collecting.
Escorting and collecting were not within Liu Nian's considerations; they were too time-consuming and the rewards were meager.
So he looked at the screen in the lobby and selected other tasks he could accept.
Rank D Mission: Exterminate the Giant Lizard!
The number of tasks is unknown, and eyeballs are required as proof of task completion.
Rewards: 400 experience points, 300 crowns, one random card and one equipment card, and 50 mercenary points.
Failure or overdue: 40 mercenary points will be deducted.
Overdue? Liu Nian took a closer look. This was a time-limited task, and the time limit was only five days.
This is it, Liu Nian chose to accept the task.
After paying a 100-crown deposit, Liu Nian received a map from customer service.
Perhaps the mercenaries of the World Society were already used to the existence of bronze-level mercenaries, so Liu Nian wasn't treated like a monkey being watched.
To be honest, he felt a mix of anticipation and disappointment!
After checking the motorcycle's fuel level, Liu Nian glanced at the direction on the map and drove in that direction.
The World Society only had two entrances and exits, so Liu Nian randomly chose the one that was closest to him to leave.
The mercenary badge saved him a lot of trouble; the guard at the exit glanced at the badge in his hand and waved him through.
After watching Liu Nian walk away, the guard glanced at the time, 3:30 pm, and muttered under his breath, "It's almost dark. This guy is greedy for money and doesn't care about his life. He's a madman."
The guard next to him nodded and said, "That's right, I didn't expect that even a bronze-level mercenary could be out of their mind."
"Nightmare will teach him a lesson, if he can come back."
"Who cares about all that? It's his life, let him go!"
"That's right, all we need to do is guard the gate!"
[Congratulations to player Liu Nian for successfully defeating the Night Demon and gaining 50 experience points.]
[Congratulations to player Liu Nian for successfully defeating the Night Demon and gaining 50 experience points.]
In the unseen distance, the Night Demon they had been talking about, who was supposed to teach him a lesson, was killed by Liu Nian on his motorcycle.
【Intimate Paradise】
A comic book? You can flip through it when you're bored!
Liu Nian looked at the card that Da Hei had brought over and said.
The remaining night demons, seeing that the man before them was not to be trifled with, vanished into the night in a flash.
In the shadows of the car headlights, a ghostly green gaze followed Liu Nian's motorcycle.
Those were the eyes of wolves, the smell of blood stimulating them, but they were more cunning than the Night Demons, knowing this was a powerful opponent, and kept themselves out of Liu Nian's sight.
This was just a minor incident during the night. After glancing at the map by the moonlight, Liu Nian continued driving in the direction where the giant lizards were known to be.
A short while after he left, the wolves swarmed forward and began to devour the Night Demon's corpse.
Meanwhile, at a residence within the entertainment district.
Young Master Zhu Xiaotian, suffering from kidney deficiency, is listening to the report from the mongrel dog.
He was furious and sitting on the sofa doing something indescribable.
The scoundrel was embellishing his story, explaining how he had bravely saved the guard's face and how he had humiliated the guard before collecting a hefty protection fee.
However, a shrewd man appeared out of nowhere, and the protection fee was intercepted by the young city lord and a mercenary dressed in black.
"So you mean you didn't receive the money?" After listening to his nonsense for so long, Zhu Shao finally got to the point.
The dog now looks just like a stray dog, with its tail between its legs and its head down, not daring to look at Young Master Zhu on the sofa.
"Yes," he said through trembling teeth.
Upon hearing this, Zhu Shao laughed heartily, "That's wonderful, that's really wonderful!"
Zhao Tianba didn't return, nor did the people from Wushuang City. That idiot still didn't get his protection money back.
Are one or two people treating me like a pushover?
"Someone, take care of this idiot!" Zhu Shao shouted irritably.
Upon hearing this, the guard at the door pushed the door open and came inside.
Upon hearing that he was going to be punished, the scumbag shuddered and glared venomously at Young Master Zhu on the sofa.
I do all the dirty and hard work, but you want to kill me to vent your anger just because I messed up one thing? I might as well... strike first.
As a level 3 warrior after all, before the guards could get close, Sanggou activated his warrior's movement skill and charged forward.
He flashed forward, moving as fast as a blur towards Zhu Shao, who was sitting on the sofa.
Zhu Shao was busy exercising, completely naked. If someone got close, death would be his only way out.
The guard was stunned. He never expected that the usually timid and subservient dog in front of Young Master Zhu would be so audacious. He hurriedly ran forward to try to catch up with the dog.
All around was the naked woman on Zhu Shao's body. It was too slow. Sang Gou looked at Zhu Shao in front of him with smugness, anger rising in his heart and evil thoughts surging in his mind.
With the scene of Zhu Shao being tortured to death in his mind, Sang Gou raised his knife and slashed at Zhu Shao.
The expected sensation of the knife piercing flesh did not come; instead, it struck an invisible wall.
The dog slashed several more times, but when it was five centimeters away from Zhu Shao, an invisible wall blocked the attack.
With each slash, the dog's face grew paler. Thinking of Young Master Zhu's methods, his hand went limp and the knife fell to the ground.
At this moment, an old man slowly walked out from behind Zhu Shao. He gently raised his palm upwards, and the body of the mongrel floated upwards uncontrollably.
Ignoring the howls of the mutineer, the old man clenched his fist, and the mutineer's body was squeezed into a ball of flesh in mid-air by an invisible force.
The ball of flesh, accompanied by blood, traced a path through the air before being thrown out through the open door.
The only sound in the room was the woman's continuous moans.
The guards inside exchanged glances and, at the old man's instruction, withdrew outside.
After a long while, Zhu Shao finished firing, glanced at the unconscious woman, and turned to the old man, saying, "Uncle Xiao, please deal with these three people."
Watching the old man leave the room, Zhu Xiaotian sat on the leather sofa inside, muttering to himself, "A masked man in complete darkness? Interesting!"
