The wizard starts by trimming the donkey's hooves

Since the Tokkar Hammer Technique has reached level 4 (3/1000), Renn is currently comprehending some fragmented training memories of the Tokkal Hammer Technique in his mind.

These memory fragments are scattered fragments of hammer training, which are being quickly digested and absorbed by Ren at the moment and integrated into muscle memory.

The whole process gave Renn the feeling as if he suddenly had the experience of practicing the Tokkal hammer technique for a year.

Some details of the hammer technique that were previously ignored have also been improved and supplemented.

In addition, Ren also noticed that his knight (extraordinary) professional level has reached lv3 (476/500) and will soon reach lv4.

Of course, since the professional level of the wizard apprentice is already lv4, it is still very early for him to be promoted again.

"Ahem. Renn, I really didn't expect that you could actually kill this guy Adams." Hamilton patted Renn's shoulder and said with relief.

However, it seems that Hamilton's physical condition is not very good at the moment due to the counterattack damage he just suffered from the 'secondary physical reflection shield'.

His body had been injured by some unknown energy, and he was coughing non-stop.

"By the way, are you... ahem... planning to apply for the bounty directly this time, or are you going to report it as the deputy security officer of Goldsmith Town?"

"Uh." Hamilton's words made Renne think involuntarily.

He is no longer a newcomer within the imperial system, and he certainly understands the implication of Hamilton's words.

If you apply directly, you will get a reward of 1,000 imperial gold coins. By the way, you can further upgrade your bounty hunter level.

If you report as the security adjutant of Goldsmith Town, the rewards in terms of gold coins will basically be gone, and will be converted into merit points. In addition, killing Adams will be included in the resume as a separate deed.

"Well, based on your performance in this battle, I think you can definitely get a lot of meritorious rewards. Once you pass the canonization assessment, there is a high probability that you will be promoted immediately."

Seeing Ren's hesitation, Hamilton expressed his opinion tactfully.

In fact, Renn was leaning towards the first option. In the previous battle, he saw Adams' combat power, and also saw the combat power that a third-level wizard apprentice could unleash after having a few witchcraft scrolls in his hands.

Obviously these all require money, that is, gold coins to support them!

but

If the official becomes bigger and bigger, will there still be a shortage of money?

Just think about the reward given by the Crowley family this time when they hired themselves as guardian knights.

Thinking of this, Ren couldn't help but smile.

In addition, if the latter is reported, Hamilton and his fellow Night Watchmen will be able to add a nice touch to their resumes and receive a certain amount of meritorious service rewards.

"Of course, Sir Hamilton, then report it in the name of a coordinated killing by the security forces of Goldsmith Town. By the way, please don't be stingy with words for your and your colleagues' combat contributions."

"Good boy, cough carefully!" Hamilton couldn't help but laugh while coughing.

Ren's words naturally made the night watchmen listen.

Many people were injured by the female resentful spirit. They were treating their wounds with bared teeth. At this moment, their expressions became much more relaxed, and some even laughed.

Sometimes, as ordinary people, night watchman is more of a job to sustain their lives.

If you can get a little more and make your family's life a little better, even if the tasks are sometimes dangerous and you will get hurt, it will still be worth it.

"If nothing else, your adjutant is really generous in terms of his military exploits!" This was the sentiment of most of the elite Night Watchmen present.

Thinking of the female grudge, Ren turned his head and looked around again, and found that the other party seemed to have disappeared with Adams' defeat.

Ren recalled that when the battle just ended, he vaguely saw that the moment the opponent disappeared in the alley, there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his mouth.

"Lord Sheriff, Lord Lieutenant, look at this corpse." An elite member of the night watchman reported.

"Leave it to the adjutant!" Hamilton smiled and waved.

At this moment, Renn remembered that he had not yet had time to pick up his trophies.

I wonder what kind of trophies this strongest enemy he has encountered so far will bring him?

Renn couldn't help but feel a long-lost sense of anticipation in his heart.

But when Renn walked to the pile of black-robed minced meat, he couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded!

This is really a bit difficult to start with!

After hesitating for a moment, Ren resisted the sticky and warm feeling on his hands and began to rummage around the black robe.

The bottles and jars in the opponent's waist bag have been shattered, but the contents have not been leaked.

Therefore, Ren was careful not to turn over them, but chose to collect other items first.

Soon, Renne rummaged through all the loot, including a twisted wooden stick similar to a cane, a white slender finger bone, an iron key and a money bag containing a small amount of gold coins.

Nothing else

This can't help but make Ren a little disappointed.

This feeling is very similar to that in Rennes' previous online game, when a group of people killed a big BOSS, but the result was garbage.

However, Ren still looked at the three trophies carefully.

The first is the wooden stick. To be precise, it should be a short stick. The head is slightly thicker and the bottom is much smaller. The whole body is dark gray and seems to be polished from a whole piece of unknown wood.

As soon as Ren received it, he felt something cold, delicate and heavy. Obviously, the density of this kind of wood was very high.

For a moment, Renn couldn't tell whether this material was valuable or how much it was worth.

And that white slender finger bone aroused Ren's interest even more.

Since Renn's mental power had reached 20 points, he could immediately tell that there was an obvious aura of the female resentment on the white finger bones.

In this case, the finger bones are probably the bones of the other party during his lifetime.

Of course, there is also a possibility that the phalanges had nothing to do with the female resentful soul during her lifetime. It was just that after being modified by Adams in some way, the phalanges became a medium for performing magic.

Next, there was the money bag. When Ren opened it, he saw only thirty or forty imperial gold coins.

This level of wealth is actually not proportional to the opponent's strength.

Weighed the money bag and put it away.

Finally, Ren held the iron key and started playing with it.

"Obviously, the items Adams left on his body are completely incompatible with his strength. There is a high probability that they are hidden somewhere."

"Maybe the iron key in my hand is the key."

"It's a pity that it's unlikely that I can use this key to directly locate and find the other party's secret location."

At this time, from the corner of his eye, Ren saw two familiar figures appearing at the entrance of the alley.

It was Lagret and Anna.

Both came.

Renn was not surprised that LaGrei could detect the movement here.

After all, the barbarian girl has rich fighting experience, and this place is not far from her bedroom. Such a fierce battle took place, and if she still didn't notice anything, then Ren would find it strange.

but

Why did Anna wake up too?

Now the two of them share a room.

By the way, Ren suddenly remembered that Anna and he practiced basic meditation at the same time, and 80% of this should be the effect of basic meditation.

By practicing basic meditation methods, your mental power will gradually increase, and naturally, your perceptual abilities will also improve.

"Ana, Lagre, why are you here?" Ren greeted.

"Ren. Here." The two looked around. Since the alley was relatively dark, they did not see Adams' body at the end of the alley.

"This little trouble has been taken care of," Ren said with relief.

Little trouble?

Hearing what Ren said, the corners of Hamilton's mouth couldn't help but twitch!

In your eyes, a wanted criminal with a bounty of up to 1,000 imperial gold coins is just a minor nuisance?

Well you are the winner, you have the final say!

"Woof woof!" At this time, the greyhound 'Cookie' also stuck out its head next to Lagre's beautiful legs.

This action.

Just like his sister Mint! Renn couldn't help but complain in his heart.

Huh!

A flash of inspiration flashed through Ren's mind, making his eyes suddenly light up!

I saw him running quickly towards the alley where Lagret and Anna were.

When the two women saw Ren rushing over, they had different thoughts.

"It seems that Renne and the others should have won the battle just now. This is great!"

"Hey, Ren is running towards me. Doesn't he want to give me a hug after victory?"

"Then should I respond? Or should I hug him gently too?"

Anna was a little confused.

When LaGrei saw Ren rushing towards him, she immediately felt that Ren wanted to hug her and Anna.

"This guy is really going too far!"

"Aunt Emma is really true. She teaches her son no matter what happens. As long as he becomes a noble master, he can have a combination of wife and lover. No, it is a combination of wife and multiple lovers!"

"He doesn't know that we barbarian girls are very traditional!"

"Hey! Forget it, it's okay to give her a hug!" Lagre said in her heart.

Just as the two women were waiting nervously and nervously for Ren's hug, suddenly Ren squatted down right under their noses.

I saw Renn, picking up Cookie's dog head and saying: "Cookie, come with me quickly."

Instantly, ‘Cookie’’s dog eyes lit up!

Judging from his expression, he seemed to be saying, could it be that his family status in the heart of his master was already higher than that of the two mistresses?

I don't know if it was Ren's illusion, but he always felt that 'Cookie' seemed to have become smarter after taking the mutant growth potion.

Ren brought 'Cookie' and quickly came to the pile of black-robed minced meat.

This made the two women look at each other, and they both felt a sense of loss.

Renn commanded 'Cookie' to smell the bloody black robe on the ground first, then the short staff and the iron key.

Then, Ren made a gesture, and Cookie's eyes suddenly lit up, and he sniffed and ran towards the north of Goldshire.

This made Renn feel happy immediately.

Sure enough, the book from the past life said that dogs’ sense of smell is thousands of times that of humans. It’s not just a lie!

"Sir, maybe we will get something unexpected." Renne turned to Hamilton and said.

Hamilton glanced at the greyhound running while sniffing, and immediately understood the meaning of Lane's words.

He couldn't help laughing and said: "I won't go. It will be a burden if I cough. You can choose a few people to go with you."

"Okay, sir." Renn nodded.

Renne waved to Mateo from a distance.

I saw Mateo running over quickly.

"Call two smarter ones to come with me," Ren said.

"No problem, Lord Adjutant! Vares, Lennon, you two come with me." Mateo looked happy and patted his chest and said.

Ren's closeness made Mateo feel that his recent performance should satisfy the adjutant.

"Yes, captain!" Two capable night watchmen stepped forward.

Just as Ren was taking the three of them and preparing to follow 'Cookie' to the north of Goldsmith Town, he soon noticed that there were two familiar footsteps behind him.

He turned around and saw that it was La Gret and Anna.

"Ren, do you need us to accompany you?"

After thinking for a while, Ren said: "Well, Anna, you'd better go home first, there may be some danger later. Lagre, then come with me."

Anna nodded, and at the same time, she lowered her head slightly and her eyes darkened.

Sure enough, Renn must feel that he is a burden.

She glanced at Lagret, who was holding a brand-new metal shield and looked heroic, and couldn't help feeling envious.

How wonderful it would be when I could be like LaGrei!

Soon, Ren and his group of five arrived at the north of Goldsmith Town.

However, what made Ren a little confused was that even though the greyhound 'Cookie' reached the northern edge of Goldsmith Town, it continued to run forward without any sign of stopping.

Could it be that Adams's residence is in a manor on the outskirts of Goldsmith Town? Renn couldn't help but guess in his mind.

But an hour passed!

'Cookie' continued to run while sniffing, and he saw that he was getting closer and closer to the county town.

In an instant, Renn reacted immediately!

Yes, a master of Adams's strength naturally has the highest probability of being hidden in the county.

After all, if a third-level wizard apprentice wants to advance, a small town will basically not be able to provide the resources it needs.

In other words, if such an expert lives in a small town, it will be very inconvenient to obtain resources.

The group of five people quickly passed through the city gate, and then, 'Cookie' ran towards a place that Ren was becoming more and more familiar with.

Huh!

This is near Frank's Tavern.

A flash of light flashed through my mind!

Renn immediately thought of a perfect location.

Could it be that Adams usually hides in the Bat Market?

Sure enough, Cookie, the greyhound, walked into the alley with the bat mark. Then, it barked a few times and looked at Ren with a dumbfounded expression on its face.

It seems to be saying, 'It should be here, but the breath is cut off here, and there is nothing in front! ’

Renn smiled, turned to Matteo and the other three and said, "Your uniforms are too obvious. Wait here for a moment."

"Yes, Lord Adjutant!" Matteo said with a smile.

After thinking about it again, Ren said to Lagre: "Your shield and figure are too obvious. It's better to wait for me here with Matteo and the others."

"Um, okay!" LaGrei tightened her hand on the shield and nodded.

There is a big gap in strength between her and Ren now, so she didn't raise any objections.

Renn grabbed the cookie and walked into the bat market.

The four people on the side watched with surprise as Ren suddenly disappeared in front of them!

Immediately, the four of them couldn't help but look at each other for a while! ——

At this time, the sky had begun to get bright.

Perhaps, in a normal morning market, there should already be merchants and pedestrians who get up early, but in the Bat Market, the flow of people is extremely sparse at this time, and the streets are empty.

As soon as he entered, Ren put the greyhound "Cookie" down. "Cookie's" dog eyes regained their previous agility, sniffed with his nose, and began to quickly explore the road ahead.

Soon, one person and one dog came to a shop with a signboard with stars, sun and moon hanging on the door.

"Woof!" 'Cookie' called in a low voice.

After that, it wagged its tail and walked back and forth in the closed shop door.

Apparently, this is where 'Cookie' identified Adams as having stayed before.

Renn raised his eyebrows and looked happy.

Following him all the way from Goldsmith Town to the county town, he finally found a place where he was suspected to have stayed.

Ren first looked around and found that no one was paying attention to him and 'Cookie' on the street. He immediately walked around the store and observed carefully.

Soon, he discovered that one of the windows in the store was partially open.

After thinking for a moment, Renn began to use his newly mastered beast tamer's core skill 'Eye of the Beast'.

The next second, Ren's vision switched to 'Cookie'.

I saw 'Cookie' take a running start and jumped in from the window with a height of about 1.5 meters.

After a while, a male yelled from inside: "Where did that stray dog ​​come from!"

Soon, 'Cookie' jumped out of the window again.

At this time, Ren also ended the skill 'Eye of the Beast' and smiled.

"There is only one adult male inside, and he is very weak. He seems to be Adams's servant. Of course, it may be just an ordinary employee helping to look after the store."

"It should be easier to solve."

So, Ren stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Dong dong dong!"

At this time, the people inside asked cautiously: "Who is outside?"

"It's not business hours yet, and the fortune teller isn't here yet." The other party explained again.

Fortune teller?

It seems that this is most likely a false identity used by Adams to cover up.

Don't open the door?

Renn raised his right hand wearing a plate glove and struck hard at the wooden door!

"Snapped!"

Sawdust breaks!

Renne chose to break directly into the goal.

A hole the size of a washbasin suddenly appeared on the wooden door of the shop. Renn pulled the bolt on his own, pushed the door open and walked in.

"Who are you?" A man in his twenties inside asked with some fear when he saw how powerful Ren was in knight armor.

"As Adams's co-defendant, you are under arrest!" Lane shouted.

"Adams?"

"Sir, are you mistaken? We don't have this person here." The young man replied with a confused look on his face.

"Do you recognize this?" Renn took out the crutch from Adams' back.

It's very possible that Adams never showed the white phalanges, but with this inconspicuous crutch, Renn felt that Adams would most likely not hide it.

really!

"The boss's crutch?" The young man's eyes suddenly widened twice, as if he thought of something, he said in a voiceless voice.

"Your boss's real name is Adams, a wanted criminal in the empire. Do you have anything else to say now?"

"Sir, I was wronged!"

"I just joined this divination shop last month. I had no idea that our boss turned out to be a wanted criminal in the empire." The young man couldn't help but weaken his legs and slowly slumped against the wall, crying out for injustice with a look of disbelief on his face. .

"Well, if it's true as you say, you will be released soon."

"Now, please cooperate with my work. Let me ask you, where is Adams, your boss's bedroom?" Renn asked leisurely.

Ten minutes later, Renn walked out of the fortune telling shop carrying a big black bag, followed by a dejected young man.

Just as Ren was about to leave the Bat Market, two hooded men in black robes walked toward Ren from the front of the street.

Renn's pupils suddenly shrank and his expression turned grim.

He could feel the active mental power of the two people opposite him.

It seems to be no worse than him, that is, the level of a second-level wizard apprentice.

Of course, it could also be higher than him, such as a third-level wizard apprentice, and then deliberately hide it at the level of second-level.

"Young man, there can be no fights in the Bat Market. If there is any fight, you need to apply to the market manager." One of the men in black robes said.

"Are you the managers of the Bat Market?"

"I'm here to capture Adams, a wanted criminal in the empire. Regarding this, I think even the Bat Market cannot protect a wanted criminal, right?" Renn pointed to the emblem on the chest of his knight's plate armor.

"This." The two men in black robes didn't expect Ren's answer to be this.

The two looked at each other for a while and said, "Since it is official officials of the empire who perform their duties, it is naturally a different matter."

Sure enough, it’s easy to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree! Renxin said.

When Ren walked out of the Bat Market, Claire and Mateo, who were waiting at the door, immediately gathered around them and heard Mateo say: "Sir, did everything go well?"

"Matteo, lock this man up and interrogate his relationship with Adams later."

Although Ren was basically certain that the employee in front of him was just an ordinary person. The only difference was that his mental power was slightly higher than that of ordinary people. However, this situation was relatively common in the Bat Market.

Most of the shop assistants are young people who are selected from ordinary people and have relatively strong spirits.

"As you command, my lord!"

Immediately, Mateo asked the two elite night watchmen behind him to escort the opponent, and followed Ren back to Goldsmith Town.

Two hours later, when Ren returned home, he immediately went to the utility room and placed the black package directly on the table.

Renn's face was filled with joy and he waved his hands heavily in the air!

The harvest this time can be called huge!

After calming down the excitement in his heart, Ren planned to start counting his gains this time.

A crystal ball, two witchcraft scrolls, three books written in spiritual script (Akkadian) and a lot of miscellaneous materials.

Currently, Ren doesn't know the efficacy of these things.

Therefore, the first thing Ren opened was the three books written in spiritual texts.

"good!"

"Not a serious person."

"There is a diary!"

"In that case, I should be able to roughly identify the origins and uses of these things in my hand!" Renn looked at the book he was holding and smiled.
