Chapter 1049 A new beginning

[I would rather suffer than seek light]

Foreword:

No one can make me let go of hatred.

It’s like no one can make me forget the past.

Everything should have an end!

Everything needs to change!

The value of life…needs to be defined!

The meaning of life… needs to be defined!

destiny……

There needs to be an answer.

you,
What’s left?

Lamb to the slaughter!
(One)

【Sometime! Some moment!】

“It’s so cold…”

“help me……”

In the darkness, someone was struggling and shouting…

“It’s so cold…”

“Why……”

His voice is getting weaker and weaker…

“why me……”

“I still want to live…”

Something was climbing, slowly approaching him.

What kind of eyes were those! The cone-shaped eyes bulged out for no reason, and looked dull and empty like a goat.

They glowed red, thirsting for his blood!

“Strange…monster…”

He could only watch the monster slowly approaching…

“save……”

Ah ah ah ah ah! ! ! !

Ah ah ah ah ah! ! ! !

Legend has it that a giant elemental dragon fell and died in the north of the Principality of Allan. The dragon’s tail turned into a thick swamp, the dragon’s body turned into continuous mountains, and the dragon’s wings turned into two towering mountain peaks. Where the dragon’s skull lay, the “Dragon City” [Winti County] was born.

Wenti County is located in the Fallen Dragon Plain. Although it is on the northernmost border of the Principality of Allan, it is different from the cold northern areas of other principalities. It is evergreen all year round and has unique livable climate conditions.

Ivy covers the ancient city walls of Wenti County, and moats surround the marble main city area of ​​Wenti County. It winds along the huge sewer opening underground in Wenti County, like a long snake entwined in Wenti County, guarding one side.

The underground moat is bounded by the city hall opposite the fountain in the Central Park, and the commercial area, living area, and manufacturing area are clearly separated. People flow between each area, and the prosperous scene is everywhere. People of different languages ​​and races communicate or pass by each other.

Manned Warcraft carriages traveled through every corner of Wenti County. The vendors’ storefronts were crowded with people, and the vendors sitting on the ground were trying their best to sell their wares. They each sold the unique goods and weapons of their own race. Adventurers of various races hurried past, and they had different costumes, different professions, and different ethnicities.

The caravans moved slowly through the streets, and there was even a circus passing by, performing rare acrobatics.

Not surprisingly, as one of the largest cities in the Principality, Wenti County accommodates every traveler and adventurer who comes.

The marble city sculptures in Wenti County depict a giant dragon soaring into the sky, and many of the ancient buildings are inlaid with large and small carvings that record the legend of the fallen dragon.

[Mus Village] is located on the east side of Wenti County, facing the raised head of the “dragon”. Here, anyone can imagine the grand occasion of the “dragon fall” a thousand years ago. The long mountain “Dragon’s Spine” and the huge “Dragon’s Skull” are as if the tragic dragon is sleeping in front of it. One only needs to raise his head from the position of Mus Village to look face to face with the dragon’s corpse.

Nine years ago, a raging fire burned Mousse Village to ashes, and almost all the vegetation on the entire mountain was cut off around the two Dragon Bone Rivers – the Qingyue River and the Yinxing River. It is hard to imagine that without these two Dragon Bone Rivers, the fire would have continued to burn and burned through the entire Wenti County.

The current inhabitants of Musi Village are either migrants from within the city or travelers who have settled here, except, of course, the only family that survived nine years ago.

I don’t know whether it was extremely lucky or extremely unlucky, but in the fire that burned everything, even the entire rescue team of Wenti County, the only ones who survived were a family of four named Nieman, an unknown man.

Jack Nieman, a nine-year-old boy, is called “the survivor of the natural disaster” by the people of Wenti County. Of course, he also has another extremely insulting name: “Son of Disaster”.

The whole family was given the ugly name of the Plague Family, although they were not recognized by everyone.

No one in Wenti County could forget that natural disaster, especially the parents and brothers of the rescue team members whose lives were taken away. They poured all their hatred for the only survivor onto this family of four.

Jack’s family was expelled to the outskirts of Mousse Village. Fortunately, Jack’s father [Ragel Niemann] had amazing perseverance and built a self-sufficient farm in Mousse Village. His mother [Alia Niemann] also subsidized the family’s income with her excellent craftsmanship, and taught her two children with her rich knowledge.

Although their lives were hard, there was no other family as warm and ordinary as theirs in Mousse Village or even in Wenti County.

Jack Nyman usually takes his sister Erica Nyman into the mountains to collect herbs. In his spare time, he follows a master named “Old Tom” to learn “guidance” knowledge, and hopes that one day he will be able to leave Wenti County.

[Guide] refers to people who can accept various types of leading tasks. They are familiar with the topography, cultural environment, and even history of a region or even multiple regions. They can lead caravans or even unions that need to cooperate across regions to earn commissions or profits.

Wenti County, as a metropolis with spring-like weather all year round, has a constant stream of caravans coming and going. Among those humans who do not possess magic or spiritual power, being a guide is a very popular profession.

Jack Nyman was born without magical powers, and for special reasons he did not participate in the [Dragon Conference] in Wenti County – a national youth talent selection conference held once a year. Through ranking, outstanding young people from various regions are assigned to colleges of different rankings for education, providing a large number of outstanding talents for the principality. Jack missed this opportunity and could only enter the society to make a living early.

By chance, he met Old Tom, and entered the guiding world with his special talents.

His special talent is that he can hear the sounds of almost all animals and plants.

Strictly speaking, as long as the animals and plants don’t lie to him, he can know everything that happens thousands of miles away. Even as long as the animals and plants live long enough, the “plants” don’t lie or lose their memory, and are even willing to tell, he can occasionally hear things that happened a few years or even hundreds of years ago.

However, Jack Nyman has a “secret” that he has never told anyone.

He is from Earth and is a time traveler!
In this fantasy world, the gears of his destiny turned silently and endlessly.

His legendary life has just begun.

[Principality of Allan, May 2025, 5]

【Wenti County Tenafaro Tavern】

Jack Nyman was wearing a very fine blue coat, and the loving woman liked to sew clothes for her son in sky blue and white. For the same reason, Erica Nyman always wore a blue and white dress.

At this moment, the brother and sister were sitting quietly side by side on the chairs, facing an old man in front of the table, with their backpacks at their feet containing the herbs they had picked.

“To be honest, Jack, you still don’t know the history of Wenti County in detail.” Old Tom stroked his beard. The skin on Old Tom’s hands was wrinkled and had many calluses, but his beard slid down smoothly again and again, feeling extremely comfortable.

“Especially when you are dealing with students who have just graduated from college, they know much more than you do.”

Old Tom seemed to be thinking about something. “But you don’t need to be discouraged. The most important thing for you now is to accumulate more knowledge. It would be best if you could practice with the kids who have returned home.”

“They all have a social practice course to report to their teachers in the fourth grade. Many young guides earn their first pot of gold through these courses.”

Old Tom looked at Jack who was serious. Jack had round eyes and extremely beautiful black pupils, even more beautiful than Erica’s green and yellow pupils.

Old Tom actually had to sigh that the Niemann family’s genes were so strong that they gave birth to such a pair of “treasures”.

It’s just a pity…

“I understand, Master!” Jack nodded vigorously. His eyes were sincere and warm. His gratitude to old Tom, his master, was expressed in their eyes.

He was too young to be able to give anything in return to Old Tom. Besides, he knew that Old Tom must be under great pressure to contact him.

Now, the two brothers and sisters can go in and out of this tavern, in large part because the owner of this tavern is old Tom’s friend.

Otherwise they would have been kicked out long ago.

Although outsiders are not familiar with the name of the Sons of Disaster, the locals of Wenti County are more or less taboo about this family.

Old Tom not only treated Jack kindly, but also taught Jack a cooking skill that ordinary people could also use to make a living. It can be said that he was like a rebirth for Jack, so Jack loved Old Tom from the bottom of his heart.

“Jack Nyman!” Old Tom said in a loud voice: “Do you have the confidence to complete your first tour guide commission?!”

“Have!”

Jack shouted loudly. He really hoped to fulfill Old Tom’s expectation. Not only for Old Tom, but also for himself, the first guide commission was extremely important.

Faced with such a complex alien world, faced with a complex and cold reality, it is better for him to have a means of making a living than any meaningless preaching.

“Do you have the confidence to find your first commission?!”

Old Tom continued to ask questions.

“Have!”

Jack continued to answer loudly.

Erica held the biscuit in her hand, looked at her brother Jack, and opened her mouth happily.

“Do you have the confidence to complete it safely?”

“Have!”

“Have!”

Erica found it interesting and playfully joined in the question-and-answer session which was like a pledge.

“Do you have the confidence to make a lot of money?”

“Have!”

“have–“

Jack’s eyes lit up, and this time he clenched his fists and punched forward!

Erica also imitated her brother and punched hard, as if at this moment, she was the little apprentice taught by old Tom.

Old Tom nodded with satisfaction, stroked his beard, took a sip of wine, and was actually a little tipsy, with a slight blush on his face.

He didn’t say anything else, but waved his hand: “Go ahead, go ahead, today’s lesson ends here, don’t disturb me while I’m drinking.”

The pub was actually very noisy. No one cared what the two kids were doing. People drank and talked, telling stories of the past, or romantic anecdotes, and beautiful women, as if the world was just like this, and apart from these, there was nothing else to talk about.

After the two children left, the owner of the tavern [Polset] sat down in front of old Tom. He was a middle-aged fat man with his belly against the table. A button of his clothes was missing. Under his fat head and big ears, he was wearing a pair of small black round glasses that covered his appearance a little.

“I don’t know what you’re trying to do…”

The boss stared at the wine glass in Old Tom’s hand. The ice inside slowly hit the wall of the glass, making a crisp sound.

“Ha, ha, ha.” Old Tom just laughed, one laugh after another. His joy made him raise the wine glass quickly, letting the wine slide into his throat, bringing the sweetness of wheat.

“Polset! Come! Drink! Drink!”

Old Tom put the cup down and filled Polset’s glass!

Polset shook his head slightly, picked up the cup, clinked it with old Tom’s cup, and drank his own cup.

The pub was filled with noise and clinking glasses was a common occurrence. Drinking was a must for men.

The bright sunshine shone on Jack’s face as he walked among the crowd holding an umbrella, while the little girl Erica held a small basket of herbs in each hand.

“Hurry up, Erica!” Jack shuttled through the crowd, holding the blue umbrella like a long sword, and he was like a warrior clearing a way through the crowd with his umbrella.

“Okay brother!” Erica answered quickly!

“We are probably late now, but it doesn’t matter. We might get some better commissions if we go now.” Jack was very excited. To be honest, he always felt that he was a little out of place in this world. Although he did not possess the so-called knowledge from another world, his current knowledge came entirely from his parents in another world and this serious but kind guide teacher.

Being able to make money through commissions is definitely something that makes him very excited and also something that means a lot.

in case……

If you save enough money…

Maybe I can leave this place…

Leave… this city, this country, even… this world…

“Okay brother!”

Erica followed, stumbling along, her little basket tilting a little too far to the side. But as she followed behind her brother, her eyes never left her brother’s head, as if she would lose him in an instant. She was a little flustered, and her little steps were shaky.

“Hurry up and follow Erica.”

“Okay! Okay brother!”

Erica was panting, her little feet were shaking as she ran on the ground, her little shoes making a puffing sound.

Jack smiled. Amidst the crowds that seemed about to crash into him, he looked happily at a very tall church.

This church named “Saint Mariana” is located in the east square of Wenti County. It is the famous “Client Hall”. Many commissions, including but not limited to guide commissions, come from here.

The client hall was already crowded with people. A sea of ​​colorful people were crowded together to compete for those simple commissions that could make a lot of money.

Jack didn’t even catch his breath after running for so long. Erica, however, was panting heavily, putting the small basket on the ground, and watching her brother squeeze in in front of the commission board.

He was so excited, she could feel her brother’s happiness, and watching him pushing and shoving like a monkey, she felt less tired.

She was sweating profusely, and her two small baskets were somewhat out of place in the crowded crowd here, and soon attracted the attention of people around her.

“Hey! Erica! Is that Erica!?”

He placed a hand on Erica’s shoulder and stared at her condescendingly.

Erica was surprised and scared. She turned around and saw a fat little boy with a big nose, a round face and a black mole at the corner of his mouth.

Of course she knew him, his name was [Locke].

Locke participated in the Dragon Conference and was ranked 201st in Wenti County. He was in the upper middle level among the four or five hundred children. Naturally, he was assigned to study in the more outstanding institution, the [Franto Swordsman Academy].

Locke, naturally, was what old Tom called the kid who had returned from high school.

“You don’t recognize me? Erica!”

Locke felt a little disappointed and surprised. He wanted to roughly pull Erica to face him. Erica was pulled by him so hard that she frowned and took a step back.

“It’s me! [Locke Balor]!” Locke shouted even louder: “I’ve fought you before! Do you remember?”

Locke pulled up the sleeve of his right hand, revealing a lightning-like scar.

“You’ve left me a lifelong mark!” Locke was trying to awaken Erica’s memory of himself, and he couldn’t help but get excited: “I’ve always been honored to be defeated by your magic. It has taught me a lot.”

Locke was not stingy with his praise for Erica. He was just showing off his scars.

“I haven’t seen you for three years. You look much more beautiful now.”

Locke looked at Erica. They were about the same age, but Erica, a girl, was as tall as Locke, a boy.

She was wearing a little blue skirt. Her mother, Aria, had woven a butterfly for Erica and sewed it on her chest. The hem and pleats of the skirt were very beautifully modified, and it was so silky and more beautiful than the skirts of the daughters of famous families.

Her mother braided two small braids for her and put them behind her head, and tied a blue bow in front of her bangs, making her look generous and gentle.

“You! So beautiful!” The more Locke looked at Erica, the more embarrassed he felt and he scratched his head with his hand.

Locke was wearing a neat school uniform, a blue and white suit that covered his fatness decently.

He was also quite cute due to his chubby appearance, but Erica had no impression of him. She took a step back, frowned more tightly, and went to look for her brother again.

A group of people slowly gathered around. They were also wearing school uniforms, but they were different from Locke’s. They should be students from different schools.

“Hey, isn’t this Locke?”

The leading student put his hand on Locke’s shoulder, pouted his lips and asked for laughs from everyone around him, “What? The 201st student is going to ask for advice from someone who is not wanted by the school?”

This person had blond hair and blue eyes, and was a little taller than Locke. He pressed on Locke, causing Locke to tilt his shoulders. Locke looked at Erica with difficulty, trying to shake her off.

His name was Ross. He became famous at the Dragon Exit Conference that year in Erica. It was said that he put drugs in his opponent’s water cup, and he advanced to the next round because of his opponent’s diarrhea. In the end, he ranked 182nd.

The classmates around Ross all laughed. In their eyes, Locke was a piece of trash who lost to a woman. In addition, his fat and funny body made him laugh at them.

“Wow, this little girl is so pretty!” Seeing how pretty Erica was, Ross wanted to touch her face with his hand. Locke couldn’t get rid of his shoulder pressure, and when he saw Ross’s hand reaching out, he had to shake his shoulders hard, trying to grab Ross’s hand.

His eyes widened, and a different kind of emotion made him feel shocked and angry at the same time, and he was about to scream!
However, the other hand grabbed Ross’s hand fiercely and shook it away with force!

Erica actually didn’t react to Ross trying to touch her face, but she saw her brother Jack grab Ross’s wrist hard and shook it off with a frown.

“who are you?!”

Jack took Erica’s hand and walked straight into the crowd.

“What do you mean?” Ross was a little annoyed, but when he saw that it was Jack, his annoyance disappeared in an instant and turned into ridicule.

“Look everyone, the mentally retarded boy comes to save the beautiful girl!”

“Hahahahaha!”

Ross and his group burst into laughter, and it was like a roar of laughter, which was out of tune with everything around them. Everyone looked at them, and then went back to doing their own things.

Locke snorted and glanced at Ross, then trotted after him. Ross was a little confused, and he kept staring at him and laughed at him, then laughed.

“Hahahaha, the last-place student in our class and the mentally retarded boy in Wenti County are getting together~”

Ross’s companions were laughing so hard that they were shaking with laughter, not paying any attention to the three people who had barely taken a few steps.

Locke turned down his mouth and glared at Ross unhappily, but what he got in return was Ross waving his fist in the air and spitting silently.

“I received a commission, look!”

Jack waved the letter of attorney at Erica.

“But it’s not a big commission.”

Jack looked very relaxed and smiled to himself.

Of course he also heard the ridicule from those people.

The Dragon Competition was such an important selection, and he was the last one at the bottom.

There is nothing wrong with being the last one, as you cannot compete with others, so it is only natural for you to admit defeat. But the funny thing is that the second to last one is a boy with a runny nose and drooling mouth.

He was a well-known “mentally retarded child” in the area. It was pitiful to say that his brain was damaged since birth. Although people did not deliberately insult him, they all knew it in their hearts.

Everyone knew that this mentally retarded boy could not possibly achieve good results, but Jack lost to this boy, ranked behind him, and “gloriously” snatched away his “reputation” of last place.

This resulted in all the kids in that class finding it difficult to keep a straight face when they saw Jack.

Even if I didn’t deliberately laugh at Jack, it was hard not to laugh. Now three years have passed, and whenever I see Jack, I still laugh happily. In fact, because Jack is the son of disaster, this kind of laughter has no burden at all.

Among his peers, Jack’s “good name” is well-known to everyone. There is a saying among them that if you meet the mentally retarded Jack, just laugh it off and don’t be polite.

This is Jack’s shadow. In addition to being called the Son of Disaster, he lost to the mentally retarded boy and ranked last. This almost insulting title hurt his self-esteem and he almost never mentioned anything about his participation in the Dragon Conference that year.

Faced with the ridicule just now, Jack really felt uncomfortable. He pulled Erica away. He could only stay away from these peers to feel better.

He just felt that he deserved this humiliation, but what could he do since he didn’t have any spiritual power.

He was not born into this world.

Each of you has magic, spiritual power, and even special abilities.

I… heh…

However, I still think this way, and if I feel uncomfortable, I will really feel uncomfortable.

Listening to their tone and contemptuous attitude, I still feel upset.

Erica looked at him with some worry, which made Jack feel uncomfortable. However, Erica’s look was gentle and caring, so he had to pretend to be calm. This smile was really embarrassing.

Jack stopped smiling, “What’s wrong Erica?”

“It’s okay, brother!”

Erica grabbed Jack’s hand and held it tightly. In fact, they both knew each other tacitly that no one would not care about such a thing.

Jack looked at Erica’s silent comfort and quietly took out the crumpled letter of authorization.

He took a deep breath and prepared to read the power of attorney to Erica, but he inadvertently glanced at Ross and others in the distance, and then he noticed Locke who had been standing next to Erica.

“Who are you?” Jack coughed deliberately to cover up the embarrassment, and put away the letter of authorization.

When Locke saw Jack looking at him, he awkwardly touched his nose with his palm and stared at the letter of authorization in Jack’s hand.

“Ahem, I’m Locke. I’m here to ask for a commission.” Locke pretended not to know Jack and grabbed his hand to greet him politely: “Hello, hello. I’ve heard a lot about you! I’ve heard a lot about you!”

“I’ve heard a lot about you.” Jack’s eyes turned cold, and he thought, what the hell, and shook Locke’s hand away.

He angrily pulled Erica’s hand and continued to move away from Locke. He rushed straight towards the crowd and squeezed his way out.

Actually, it’s escape.

Erica looked at her brother’s back, he didn’t even turn his head. She still remembered that her brother with a strong self-esteem cried for the whole day when he lost the Dragon Conference three years ago.

The whole family couldn’t find him, and in the end he came back on his own.

After he came back, he was talking and laughing, no different from usual, and no one mentioned the matter again.

In fact, everyone in the family knew that Jack had always remembered this incident, and it gradually turned into a scar that would hurt when it was opened, and remained in his heart.

The elder brother who had no magic and was too weak to practice swordsmanship, met Old Tom and it was like he had found his life-saving straw. He grabbed it tightly because it was the only thing he was skilled and good at.

Become a wizard!

Excellent guide!
A guide to making money!
The world’s best guide!
(Fives)

More and more students are arranged by the school to return to their hometowns where they were selected for a two-month social practice.

In fact, to put it bluntly, after graduating from different schools, the gap that has accumulated year after year has become very obvious. It must be a very special and meaningful thing to meet the same group of guys selected from the Dragon Assembly in your hometown again.

By the way, I got to see my family whom I hadn’t seen for several years.

Among those who return home, a large number of them will choose to look for monsters around their hometowns and conduct various forms of actual combat to cope with the next learning tasks in school.

People like Ross and Locke would look for some reliable guides to find monsters around Wenti County for actual combat.

Of course, most of them will look for monsters that they can easily defeat. However, there are exceptions. In order to quickly improve their actual combat skills, people who want to challenge themselves will also look for more well-known monsters to achieve the purpose of actual combat training.

Locke is naturally not one of those people. He is lucky enough to have met the goddess Erica who defeated him, and he will not let go of this opportunity to reminisce.

After all, he still came from an excellent college, was an absolutely good student, and had a bright future.

“Why are you following me again!”

Jack was a little surprised.

“That’s not what I meant. I meant that you are Erica’s brother. I heard the legend about you a long time ago!”

“Legend?” Jack looked at Locke awkwardly. He winked and didn’t understand what Locke meant: “Isn’t this the same meaning?”

“No, no!” Locke apologized hurriedly: “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, Brother Erica, I didn’t mean that.”

The originally flattering words turned into some sarcastic words, which made Locke extremely anxious.

This made Jack feel more uncomfortable than scolding him directly.

That’s terrible…

He followed very closely. The scent of Erica was very charming, which made him follow her very closely step by step. He wanted to pull Erica to stop, but he didn’t dare to do so, and it was impossible.

If you offend Erica’s brother, it will be difficult to talk to Erica, or even see her.

Seeing that Jack was about to drag Erica away again, he simply ran quickly, knocked away the people around him, and stood in front of Jack.

“Sorry, sorry, brother, please don’t misunderstand!”

Locke was sweating profusely, with his arms outstretched, blocking Jack’s way. He glanced at Erica anxiously, then returned his gaze to Jack.

Jack glanced at Locke, and noticed the way he looked at Erica. The “concerned look” of this little fat boy could not be concealed at all. He looked at the “little fat boy” in front of him thoughtfully, and then turned back to look at Erica.

Erica was baffled.

“What are you…”

Jack stopped and looked at Locke speechlessly. He didn’t know what to say. As for his own inner demons, he could only stop talking.

His mouth was dry and he felt quite embarrassed. He took out the letter of authorization. What legends, what great names, it was really terrible.

The Dragon Assembly, a selection competition that can almost determine one’s life. He thought he had let it go, but… when his peers from that year showed up and brought up the old things, he became upset again.

“Brother, it’s really not what you think. I admire Erica very much…” Locke felt that he had said something wrong again: “Of course, I admire you too!”

“Hey! Shut up!”

This guy is really…

Jack finally couldn’t bear it anymore. Locke was stunned on the spot. Facing someone with such a “famous” or “legend” in the past, every compliment Locke said turned into an outright mockery, making Jack’s face turn red and it was difficult to see any smile on his face.

This “fool” is really both infuriating and funny!

I’m not a three-year-old!

childish!

He had a stern face and stared at Locke, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

His pair of black, dazzling eyes could hardly show any resentment even when he was angry.

Because the object of his anger was not Locke, but himself three years ago.

Everyone around him looked at him as if they were staring at an angry lone wolf.

He seemed like he was going to bite at any moment!

Invisible rage!

“It’s weird…”

The blond man named Pylos fanned himself with the hat in his hand.

In one hand he held a very unique “cowboy hat” and in the other he held a letter of authorization.

This kind of cowboy hat is extremely eye-catching. It is the kind of hat that only cowboys would wear when they were pioneering in the western part of the Principality of Arlan.

But now it is an antique. No one wears this hat anymore, except for this archaeologist named Pylos Phoenix.

He was wearing a very capable mountaineering suit and looked like he was ready to climb the mountain at any time.

The weather was getting hotter. He fanned himself and looked anxiously at the crowded commission hall, expecting someone to come towards them.

“【Skarner】, this is very strange. It seems that our commission has been taken away by someone else. However, we have waited for so long. Why hasn’t anyone come to find us yet!?”

Pylos touched his head curiously and smoothed out his tangled hair.

Skarner leaned against the marble pillar of the church with his eyes closed. He did not answer Pylos.

Skarner was wearing a simple black windbreaker with an extremely eye-catching thin-bladed long sword on his waist. With his muscular figure and cold expression, no one would doubt that he was not a powerful swordsman.

“It’s too bad. The weather is getting hotter. I don’t know if we can find the thing before sunset.”

Just as Pylos was worried, two smaller figures suddenly emerged from the crowd.

One of them was holding a letter of authorization, and the other was carrying two small baskets, and they slowly walked towards Pylos.

Pylos did not notice them at first, and it was not until his eyes met those of the two children that he dared to speak again.

But he was surprised and shook the resting Skarner hard, asking with an incredible look on his face.

“Wouldn’t it be those two kids?”

Pylos opened his mouth wide, and at this moment, it was impossible for him to close his mouth.

“what?”

He looked back at the letter of authorization in his hand, and then saw the letter of authorization in the boy’s hand. His surprise was beyond words: “Two children are coming towards us! Skarner!”

Skarner was shaken by Pylos, but compared to Pylos’s surprise, Skarner was much calmer.

Pylos’s smile was about to spread all over his face. A little kid… received his commission…

He originally thought it would be a beautiful woman or something… Well, it doesn’t have to be a beautiful woman, he thinks it would be completely fine even if it was an experienced guide.

but……

The reality is… this…

Haha …

The “little guy” even looked at himself, as if to confirm!
Before Pylos and Skarner could say anything, Jack and Erica had already stood in front of Pylos.

“Actually, there will be some… I’m old enough to think about it…” Pylos shook his head, put on his cowboy hat, and said helplessly, “Remember the [Bentian Island]? There were only kids serving as guides there, and it wasn’t as bad as we thought. We just lost 10,000 gold coins.”

Pylos spread his hands.

He noticed this young man. In fact, he had a delicate appearance, black hair and black eyes, and his clothes were very clean, but he did not look like a child from a wealthy family.

There was a very special thing on his neck that caught Pylos’s attention. This thing made Pylos, an archaeologist, eyes light up and he immediately became interested.

It was a piece of “jade” with half of it exposed!
Although it is still unclear what style this jade is, judging from the material alone, this piece of jade is very valuable. Its roundness and luster throughout the body are likely to fetch a good price just through auction.

The jade was quietly hidden in Jack’s chest. Seeing that Pylos was very interested in his jade and even stared at it, Jack frowned suddenly.

This person… is staring at his jade pendant?
“You guys are going to… [Longshou Mountain]?”

Jack once again confirmed the letter of authorization he had seen. Each letter of authorization had a unique mark assigned by the client, like a compass, indicating the direction of the client, making it easier for the person receiving the authorization to find the client.

The cowboy hat mark left by Paolos was clearly lit, pointing at Paolos, which was why Jack was able to recognize his client at a glance.

“Yes, little guy.” Pylos fixed his makeup, took off his cowboy hat and put it on his chest, revealing his handsome face. He extended his other hand forward to shake hands, and he smiled very happily: “What’s your name?”

“Jack Nyman.” Jack shook Polos’ hand. The handshake seemed extremely natural, which did not surprise Polos. From his professional point of view, this boy was not simple.

“Erica, my sister.”

Erica was carrying a small basket like a flower girl picking flowers, and she nodded quietly.

“Hello, Mr. Jack. Hello, Miss Erica. Pylos Phoenix.” Pylos looked at Skarner and introduced Jack: “My dear friend, Skarner Carnellton.”

Skarner glanced at Jack and closed his eyes again, obviously not wanting to pay attention to him.

“Don’t worry about it, he is just that kind of person. But you only need to spend one day with him. Haha.” Pylos explained for Skarner. He glanced at Jack and then glanced at the jade on his neck.

The jade finally revealed some appearance. The skull of an ancient blue dragon was carved on the white jade, but one of the dragon’s horns broke out of the jade body, shining its majesty under the sun.

Jack noticed Pylos’s gaze, but he quietly raised the letter of authorization and handed it to Pylos.

“I am very familiar with Longshou Mountain. I hope that our guide Jack Nyman can satisfy you this time, Mr. Paolos Phoenix.”

Pylos realized his mistake and smiled.

He suddenly found that things seemed to be getting interesting.
