1335 Pub 1

The Qingmai Forest, located in the northwest of Kelan Mountain, is a paradise for surface monsters and the only area that has not been massacred by surface wizards some time ago.

Because there is not only a long-standing peace agreement here, but also an alliance of many extremely powerful beasts.

Of course, the outer area of ​​the Qingmai Forest is still open, because many beasts with low strength but extremely fast reproduction speed still need to be cleared, otherwise the resources of the Qingmai Forest cannot supply the consumption of many beasts.

So more than a thousand years ago, when there were brave people who ventured into it to collect resources and hunt low-level monsters, they were not stopped, but came out with an agreement dictated by the beast alliance, making the Qingmai Forest, which had been closed for ten thousand years, open to the human world again.

However, the beast alliance in the Qingmai Forest also seemed to understand the principle of control, so it only opened the only entrance on the south side and strictly formulated the rules for hunting and trading.

However, because the resources in the initially opened area were not rich, and the low-level monsters occasionally had mutated individuals that were quite powerful, when the risk of entering was greater than the benefits, many wizards and adventurers who heard about it suffered a great loss. Even a city lord and his guards who happened to pass by here were trapped in it and lost contact.

But for some reason, after the "city lord incident", the Qingmai Forest became friendly and safe overnight, and eventually a small town of not very large scale was built at the southern entrance, so that adventurers entering and leaving the Qingmai Forest had a fixed resting place.

It's just that any store in this town is unique.

There is only one tavern. There is only one hotel, and there is only one pharmacy, ironware shop, grocery store and many other stores!

It seems that this is the customary rule in the town for many years. As long as it is a new store that has not been opened before and has no conflict with other stores, it can be opened. Otherwise, at most, it will appear in this town for three or five days, and the shop owner who does not abide by the rules will disappear in vain, without exception.

When there are more adventurers traveling in the Green Haze Forest, conflicts often occur in hotels, taverns, restaurants and other places in the town, but as long as the conflicting parties compensate for the broken objects in full afterwards, they will not be held accountable.

But if you want to rely on your strength and strength to refuse to pay, then there will be many fresh corpses under the humus of the Green Haze Forest, which will become the nutrients of the Green Haze Forest.

Therefore, when these many special rules are known to everyone, this town will become mysterious and extraordinarily comfortable.

It is just because of the conscription order issued by the Supreme Council during this period. The subsequent great success of invading the nightmare world has made those guys who originally did not want to participate eager to move, so more and more adventurers enter and leave the Green Haze Forest, making the shops and residents in the town busy.

The conservative residents of the town are mysterious and powerful in the eyes of outsiders.

But for old Mike, the owner of the town tavern, he is familiar with everyone here.

Because all the people here are hermits, and they have obtained new identities from the Green Haze Forest Beast Alliance in various ways, so that they can settle in the town.

So the street is just a drunkard who loves alcohol, but in fact, when he pulls out the dagger in his boots, he can immediately restore his identity as a powerful thief!

And the silly old man wrapped in a dirty and old robe curled up on the recliner will become a mysterious and powerful wizard with a secret past when he gets angry. The scorching fire technique he releases at will can even burn all the outsiders in the town to ashes!

Of course, as the owner of the only tavern in the town. Old Mike was also an extremely fierce guy in the past, but because he had been in seclusion here for too long. His originally strong muscles became loose, his belly had long been protruding, his sharp eyes became turbid, and the rough calluses on his hands were not very visible, but only his vigilance was still there, but it was not easy to attract the attention of outsiders.

It's just that Old Mike's purpose of taking over the tavern is not to make money, so when the tavern business is good, he is very dissatisfied. However, due to his current status, he must also ask the kitchen to prepare more food and ask the women to be more diligent, so that all outsiders who enter the tavern can eat and drink enough, and then quickly leave his territory and give him a safe environment.

But the guys who returned from the Qingmai Forest today celebrated because they got a precious golden-horned snake, so even though it was close to closing time, the tavern was still extremely noisy and noisy. Even the kitchen clerks had to come out to deliver food and wine, and the two women were already full of feet...

But just when the wine in Old Mike's mouth became bland and his eyes staring at the hourglass were a little sore, a gust of cold wind came in vain, causing Old Mike, who was sitting shirtless behind the stage, to shiver, and then turned his angry eyes to the door not far from the stage!

A pink little face first appeared in the crack of the door that was pushed open from the outside, with curved eyebrows and eyes that contained a strong curiosity and a little vigilance.

Then the person who was dragged in by the little girl was a young man with a thin figure, black hair and pale skin, but a very gentle look.

The tavern, which was about to close, naturally did not welcome new customers, but whether it was because the girl was too busy today or because of the cuteness of the little girl, the girl who had just put the bottle down actually stepped forward to lead the way!

Seeing this, Old Mike was furious and just wanted to slam the table, but the girl with a delicate face and panting in a huge cloak who came in from outside the door, and the sturdy young man who was less than one meter tall but so strong that it was impossible to be human, were... It made Old Mike quickly lift his palm that he had slapped down!

Having been in charge of this tavern for decades, and with his sharp eyesight honed through his career as a knife-edge licker, Old Mike immediately sensed something was wrong.

But old Mike was still a little confused about what was wrong, so after thinking about it for a while, he decided to take a look before talking about it.

The four people who were led by the woman to the corner ordered meals and drinks after sitting down. Although the atmosphere in the entire tavern had already been extremely lively, the atmosphere in the corner was a bit stagnant!

The pink little girl held the young man's arm and secretly looked at everything in the tavern, with excitement and a little nervousness in her eyes.

The thin young man next to her kept looking at the little girl with a smile on his face, with an expression that was both gratifying and a little helpless, while the tough young man with a sinewy face but clear eyes seemed to Very curious about everything around me.

Only the girl with a pretty face had her mouth pursed and she was lying on the table with a look of boredom on her face. Her eyes were randomly scanning the smoky tavern. Finally, she turned to the table and noticed that she was resting her chin on the table and staring. Old Mike looking in this direction.

He paid attention out of curiosity, and because this was the tavern he was in charge of, Old Mike naturally made no secret of his peeps.

But when the pretty girl turned her eyes, the noisy and noisy sounds that old Mike could hear before seemed to be blocked in vain, quickly weakening and disappearing!

But the face of the young girl in Old Mike's eyes gradually became blurred amidst the smile, as if there was a piece of tissue paper blocking his eyes, making everything in his sight blur. They are no longer transparent.

Old Mike was very depressed because of the good business in the tavern one night. Although he knew that he drank too much today, logically speaking, he shouldn't be drunk after such a small amount of wine. So after he cheered up, he stared at I want to take a closer look with my eyes!

But the entire face of this delicate girl began to fester as if it had been severely corroded. After the skin peeled off, he saw the bright red muscles and transparent blood vessels underneath, and then what caught Old Mike's eyes was that The horrifying pale bones... (To be continued...)
