Su Ziyu was too lazy to explain.
But at this moment, there was a sudden chaotic noise outside, and then a wealthy man in gorgeous clothes walked in surrounded by a group of people.
He looked like a wealthy businessman, but with a bit of aristocratic arrogance.
Fantsin instantly became much more energetic at this moment. He wiped his face with water and whispered in Su Ziyu's ear: "Business is here."
After saying that, he walked towards him with a stern face and a rather cold attitude.
Melissa, who was standing next to him, had a calm expression. She didn't seem to be angry about him staying in a brothel last night. Instead, she was much colder towards Su Ziyu. She must know something. After seeing Su Ziyu's puzzled expression, she whispered, "The last time we came here, we saw traces of water ghosts by the river."
After traveling through so many worlds, Su Ziyu feels that his analytical ability has improved a lot.
He guessed the general situation as soon as he heard it.
Fan Xin had been here before. The last time he came here, he saw traces of water ghost activities in the nearby river, but he did not spend energy looking for the water ghost at that time.
Just like he said before, he would not take action without a mission or a bounty.
Obviously.
Someone might have been killed last night.
This is why Fantsin said that business has come to his door. This demon hunter seems to treat his job as a business. Su Ziyu does not comment on this because everyone has the right to choose their own way of life. The demon hunter is a bloody profession on the edge of a knife. It is natural to risk your life to destroy those monsters and make some money to support your life.
Just like what Fantsin said during casual chat that day.
——"We are not heroes, we are just a group of experts in dealing with monsters."
Melissa leaned against the pillar and played with her hair. She looked Su Ziyu up and down and said, "These people won't take money unless something goes wrong. They will only be polite when they need us."
Neither of these two witchers looked wealthy.
The most valuable thing on Fantsin should be his set of equipment. As a woman, Melissa hardly has any gold or gemstone jewelry on her. A lot of the money she earned yesterday should have been spent by Fantsin in the brothel.
Su Ziyu is not quite sure how these demon hunters survive.
But in Fantsin, he felt the aura of a prodigal son, a mentality of living one day at a time, being free and easy when he had money, and working hard when he didn't.
I guess he never prepared any money for his retirement, and he might not even have thought about the day when he would have a retirement.
The matter is very clear.
Fantsin went out for a walk, and when he came back he raised his eyebrows at Su Ziyu and said, "Some water ghosts appeared in the river here."
"They offered a bounty of six gold Galleons."
"Are you interested?"
Six gold galleons are six gold coins, which has strong purchasing power in this world.
"Half each?" Su Ziyu crossed his arms and bargained as if jokingly.
Melissa couldn't help but glare at him when she heard that.
Fantsin laughed, came closer and said, "That won't work. I can only give you 40% at most."
"Okay." Su Ziyu thought for a moment, glanced at Melissa beside him and said, "I want two gold galleons. But you are responsible for the travel expenses."
"That's great." Fantsin nodded immediately.
It should be common for demon hunters in this world to cooperate, otherwise Fantsin would not have accepted his bargaining so easily.
When setting out, Su Ziyu clearly felt a little fear from ordinary people. After revealing his identity as a demon hunter, both ordinary people and mercenaries had a hint of fear and dread in their eyes, as if they were looking at an alien. A drunkard died last night, and his status here seemed to be quite high. The murderer was a water ghost, a kind of demon that a drowned human turned into.
Very common, but often seen in groups.
When working, Fantsin is a sophisticated and silent demon hunter, completely different from when he was playing Gwent with Suziyu.
"Did you see that?"
"This is the skin that fell from the water ghost."
"Someone must have been dragged into the water here last night. He struggled hard at the time. This is the skin fragment he picked off the water ghost." Fan Xin picked up a small piece of dark blue skin and said.
At this time, he really seemed like Melissa's mentor, explaining in great detail along the way, including the range of water ghosts' activities and various habits.
"This monster is easy to deal with on land."
"But I'm not sure I can handle more than three of them in the water at once." Fantsin glanced at Su Ziyu and said, "If there are more than five water ghosts, you'd better find some help."
This demon hunter should have special tracking skills.
Su Ziyu saw the cold breath left by the water ghost through his psychic vision. It was a gray-blue trace. Undead creatures seemed to have a little bit of this cold breath. Fantsin certainly didn't have psychic vision, but he could feel and smell this smell, and then find them with his rich experience. Demon hunters are indeed experts in dealing with these monsters.
Melissa currently does not have this ability. She should still be just a witcher apprentice. Her physical fitness is only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people, and has not reached the inhuman level of a witcher.
Female demon hunters are rare.
Su Ziyu felt that such a dangerous job was not suitable for women, but for some reason Melissa was very persistent about it. She listened very carefully and learned very quickly.
"They should be right down here." Fantsin stopped in front of a lake.
He turned his head and looked at Su Ziyu who was one step behind and asked, "How is your swimming ability?"
"It's just so-so." Su Ziyu answered honestly.
Fantsin frowned slightly and said slowly: "Then you have to learn it when you have time. You may encounter sea monsters when you are at the beach in the future."
"They can smell us from a distance."
Su Ziyu smiled and said, "Yeah. Don't worry. I learn things quickly."
The lake water is a bit cold.
There seemed to be a faint stench in the water, and the bottom was very turbid. Being a witcher was indeed a hard job. Fantsin put some things on the shore, drew his sword first and dived into the cold lake.
The perch fish followed closely behind.
As soon as he dived into the lake, he saw some rotten bodies buried in the mud. It seemed that many people had been killed in the past. Deep in the mud, he found some bodies with light blue skin, many spots on the skin, and dark blue webbed feet on their hands and feet. They quickly emerged from the mud and approached the three people at a very fast and flexible speed.
This is the first time that the mullet has fought underwater.
He discovered right after the fight that the resistance in underwater combat was very great, and these water ghosts seemed much more agile than him.
