This brave man is a scumbag

Chapter 562
"I still don't feel right."

The carriage driving on the border of Tariq wobbled forward in the forest. The groom was lazily leaning on the carriage with a pipe in his mouth. From time to time, he lightly whipped the horse's buttocks to make it move a few more steps as much as possible. .

And in the carriage, a handsome young man wearing standard adventurer's attire and a large book hanging around his waist was rubbing his chin, squinting his eyes, and whispered thoughtfully, "How can this sword be so expensive?"

Sitting on the other side of the carriage was a beautiful girl with long hair reaching her waist.The warm light from the window of the carriage fell on her long blue hair like a lake on her shoulders, reflecting an enchanting halo.After the girl heard the voice from the opposite side, she looked away from the spar in front of her eyes, and then said softly:
"Maybe the village chief's family is short of money."

"I can't."

The young man pinched his chin with an unacceptable expression on his face, "Why did I hear that the village chief bought that sword from the antique pile for one silver coin? Why did he sell you ten silver coins? I feel that the village chief He is not the kind of person who is greedy for money, he clearly said that as long as I show perseverance and determination, he will directly sell me the sword at the original price, why did he suddenly turn his face?"

At this time, what the boy didn't notice was that a look of embarrassment flashed across the face of the blue-haired girl in front of him after listening to his words.She turned her head and muttered in a low voice: "Who knows, maybe, the village chief is suddenly short of money."

The girl forcibly concealed her guilt. After all, the crystals she brought from the God Realm were too few, and the restoration techniques used on the brave man a few times before were too exhausting. If she didn't replenish some energy, she might disappear with the wind.

"not"

The boy suddenly raised his head and looked at the girl in front of him, with a trace of suspicion flashing across his face.But soon, he smiled and said mockingly: "Hey, me too, how can I doubt you. After all, you are a dignified envoy, how could you be short of this little money."

Hold on, hold on!

The blue-haired girl who had been holding on to her perfect goddess appearance was pinching the seat with all her strength at this time, for fear that the boy in front of her would see the clue.She nodded slightly, and said in a cold tone: "It's okay Zhou Li, this is human nature, I don't care."

"Sorry, Angel of Elma."

Zhou Li sighed, he felt a little guilty, how could he doubt this noble envoy?Whether it's temperament or behavior, Elma is the most elegant and noble existence he has ever seen, after all, she is a god.

Thinking of this, Zhou Li couldn't help feeling a little longing for the next trip.Not long ago, he solved the calamity of the bull monster by buying a sword that could only kill cows from the village head of Xinshou Village. After getting a lot of gold coins, Zhou Li chose to follow the Book of the Brave and Elma Suggestion, head to Taric for a new adventure.

Looking at the usual scenery outside the window, Zhou Li thought for a while, took out the exclusive book for the brave, and after communicating with this artifact from the God Realm through spiritual power, Zhou Li began to browse through his files.

【Name: Zhou Li】

【Race: Human】

[Occupation: Radiant Knight]

[Level: Silver]

[Talent: Heart of Justice, Seven Virtues, Blessing of the Brave, Blessing of the Twelve Gods, Blessing of Magic]

[Professional abilities: Roar of Justice, Glorious Armor, Judgment, Radiant Flare, Flame Fang]

Seeing the grade column that has been stained with a touch of gold, a faint smile appeared on Zhou Li's face.He closed the book called [Apocalypse], closed his eyes, and began to recharge his energy and prepare for the next adventure.

Before that, Zhou Li had been training in a small country named [Nancy] outside the border of Tarik.This small country is located in the grassland and mainly lives on animal husbandry.Not long ago, the aura of a demon king appeared here, infecting a bull used for bullfighting, and finally turned into a bull monster, causing disasters everywhere.If Zhou Li hadn't solved the bull monster, then Nancy might have asked their neighbor Tarek for help.

After solving the bull monster and being promoted to a silver-level shining knight, Zhou Li chose to follow the advice of Elma and Apocalypse, and went to Taric to seek more breakthrough opportunities.Therefore, after receiving a high reward of ten gold coins, he directly chose to apply for two extradition documents for Tariq, hired a carriage and started a 20-day slow journey.

"Well, if it's Magnum, we'll be able to fly in an airship."

Zhou Li remembered the description of the country named Magnum when the old man passed by the village had a conversation with him, and said enviously for a moment: "It only takes half a day for the airship to go from Magnum to Tarik. It just doesn't take that long."

"Master, do you know how expensive an airship is?"

At this time, the groom who was driving the carriage sneered, and said to the carriage with a pipe in his mouth: "One person, five gold coins! I will take the two of you to Tariq, and only one gold coin is enough. Yes. If you are really rich, why don’t you rent an airship directly, and still ride the carriage here bitterly? Are you free?”

Zhou Li didn't say anything, just smiled.He has not been recognized by a country now, so his status as a brave man is actually not counted.But in fact, even if it was his silver-level shining knight status, if he showed it, the groom could only knelt on the ground with a pale face and begged him to show his noble hand.

After all, in this kind of wilderness, if Zhou Li killed him directly, no one would hold him accountable.However, 25 years of legal life on earth made Zhou Li dislike the feeling of killing people easily, so he just smiled and did not pursue the offense of the carriage driver.

"Let me tell you, young people must not be arrogant. Look at me, even though I drive a carriage in this dense forest every day, I can earn three gold coins a month, and I can be considered a high-income group. Now, let’s talk about you again, alas, one day..."

Suddenly, with a sharp sound of breaking wind, a flickering feather arrow pierced the groom's left arm.Immediately, the somewhat aged black horse kicked its heels, broke free from the carriage, neighed, and suddenly accelerated and ran deep into the jungle.

Looking at the black horse fleeing to the depths of the dense forest, the coachman ignored the pain in his arm, but sweated coldly, curled up on the spot, and shouted loudly: "My lord! Don't kill me, my lord! I'll give you money, you want I'll give you everything! Don't kill me, please!"

【Stay in the car, you, get out of the way】

At this time, a deep voice came from the dense forest.After the carriage driver heard the archer's voice, a trace of hesitation flashed across his face. He looked at the unmoving carriage, gritted his teeth, carefully placed a dagger in the carriage door with his right hand, and then quickly stood up, ready to get away.

call out!
The sound of feather arrows tore through the air, and with a muffled groan, the carriage driver fell to the ground in an instant.

Zhou Li, whose glory had turned into golden scales, stood in front of him, firmly grasping the feathered arrow with his left hand, while keeping pushing the driver with his right hand.

"Let's go."

Throwing away the feather arrow, Zhou Li glanced at the blood-oozing palm, and then said lightly to the driver behind him, "Thank you."

"take care."

Seeing that Zhou Li seemed to have nothing to worry about, the man in the middle of his life stumbled to his feet and fled the scene in a hurry.But Zhou Li looked at the dense forest not far away, and a golden light suddenly appeared on his body. In an instant, a brilliant mosaic appeared in the sky above the dense forest, and a burly figure was also exposed.

"Not bad, at least you can find me."

The burly man walked out of the dense forest slowly, put the bow and arrow in his hand back behind his back, and pulled out the giant hammer at his waist.After fully revealing his figure, Zhou Li's pupils constricted suddenly, his whole body tensed up, and he quickly rolled to the right, dodging the feather arrows attacking behind him.

"The response is pretty quick."

The man grinned, and thick black mist oozing from the corners of his mouth slowly emerged on that ghostly face. The cheeks with skeletons exposed and sharp teeth all proved that the one who attacked Zhouli's carriage was not are people.

"Lin Gui, it's you again."

Zhou Li looked at the burly monster in front of him with a ferocious face, but there was a sense of lightness in his whole body. He gritted his teeth, and his eyes were full of hot flames.

"Thank you for the compliment."

The monster known as the forest ghost bowed slightly, and its polite appearance was the opposite of its terrifying face.He tapped his exposed ribs on his chest, and then asked Zhou Li, "Where do you want to go in such a hurry?"

"Justice protects me!"

With the golden scales on his body, as Zhou Li shouted angrily, a scorching aura like the scorching sun emerged.He didn't go to talk to Lin Gui, but raised the long silver sword that had removed the entry, and turned into a monster with a blazing sun rushing straight in front of him.

"Still don't have a long memory."

Lin Gui shook his head, the corners of his mouth curled up, and then he stepped heavily on the ground, countless fallen leaves suddenly enveloped his body, and the next second, Lin Gui's figure disappeared among the fallen leaves.And Zhou Li's heavy blow also landed in the empty space.

"If Lord Demon King hadn't said it himself, I really couldn't believe that a waste like you is actually a brave man."

Standing on top of the tree, Lin Gui bent his bow and set an arrow, and a sudden rain of arrows enveloped Zhou Li's head.Facing the deadly rain of arrows, Zhou Li took a deep breath, and suddenly roared, an invisible force instantly dispersed the rain of swords.

Knight Ability: Eliminate Streamers

The long sword in his hand once again burst into a scorching aura, Zhou Li's eyes suddenly showed solemn power, and the next second, Lin Gui was stared at by Zhou Li's eyes, and the long sword directly threw out a fiery blade , cut to the forest ghost on the tree.

Cavalier Ability: Deterrence

Shining Knight Ability: Fangs of Flame

"Oh?"

Being firmly nailed to the tree and unable to move, the forest ghost who could only watch the flames coming towards him raised his eyebrows, with a look of interest on his face.

"In such a short period of time, you have understood the linkage between professions, which is not too wasteful."

Just when the flames were about to cut Lin Gui's body in half, Lin Gui stepped on his scales and thorns covered feet hard. During his breathing, the tree under his feet directly covered his body with bark, and at the same time blocked the blow.

Child of Nature Talent: Nature Conservation

"how is this possible?!"

Seeing this scene, Zhou Li's pupils constricted immediately.As a brave man with the Apocalypse, he naturally knows that this is a special talent of a race called the Son of Nature.This talent allows the Son of Nature to communicate with the creatures in nature in exchange for their protection.

However, the man named Lin Gui in front of him had already sold his soul to the devil, how could he still retain this ability.

"Confused?"

Slowly walking out from the trees, Lin Gui looked at Zhou Li's terrified expression, and said with a smile: "Don't doubt, you will never be able to doubt again soon."

In an instant, Zhou Li's pupils constricted, and countless breaths of death locked him in place.Lin Gui stretched out his hand, and a beam representing death gradually condensed in his palm.

Demon Talent: Life Stripped

"Goodbye, future Mister Brave."

A cruel smile slowly emerged. Looking at Zhou Li who was locked by the light beam and kept fleeing in the dense forest, Lin Gui suddenly laughed and pointed his palm at the carriage beside him.

"And this Master God Envoy!!!"

Accompanied by a sharp buzzing sound, the carriage beside Lin Gui was suddenly enveloped in a beam of life-stripping light.Lin Gui turned his head, looked at Zhou Li who was standing there not far away, laughed ferociously and said, "Look! You still can't protect anyone! Just like that boy herding cows, everything you cherish will be destroyed. I was easily reduced to ashes!"

Then, Lin Gui saw the faint smile on Zhou Li's face.

"As you said."

Not far away, Zhou Li took off his golden helmet, with a sarcastic smile on his handsome face, "I don't have a long memory."

Suddenly, countless warning voices emerged in Lin Gui's heart, and all his cells were screaming frantically, warning, warning that there was an extremely dangerous existence beside him.

Soon Lin Gui knew what was in that carriage.

"Guess why, I have made a lot of money, why do I still care about this slow carriage?"

Looking at Lin Gui who had inhaled the black powder and started to look dazed, Zhou Li smiled.And Elma, who was hiding in the shadow of the flare, also stepped out from the side, stretched out her hand, and the gentle water tightly locked Lin Gui's ankle.

"Guess why, I gave up the safe desert road and chose a closer forest path."

Stretching out his hand, the flame rune that cost three gold coins began to burn slowly.Looking at the terrified Lin Gui who seemed to beg for mercy, Zhou Li's voice became low, "Would you like to guess, whether I will blame you for Xiao Yasen's death."

Pressing down the flame rune in his hand, accompanied by a violent roar, a strong sulfur breath immediately filled the dense forest.Looking at the dense black rock in front of him, Zhou Li covered his mouth and coughed twice, turned his head and looked at Elma beside him.

"he died."

Just as Erma nodded, the moment the two of them relaxed, a huge arrow made of spines burst out from the black smoke, piercing Erma's forehead with endless malice.

And on the ground that was bombed and shattered, the shattered forest ghost slowly fell to the ground with a tragic smile, and his body was limp after the spine was removed, as if mocking Zhou Li .

You are still careless.

At this time, Zhou Li suddenly felt cold hands and feet, and his mind went blank.At such a distance, he had no time to save Elma, nor could he protect her.

I am just a silver-level weakling.

"Heavy rain is coming!"

Suddenly, a Jiaohe sounded from the forest nearby.Elma's face was instantly shrouded in a veil condensed by the torrential rain, and the arrow in the spine, which was entrusted with evil thoughts, was also directly shredded by the violent wind and rain.

In the jungle, a heroic woman wearing heavy mithril armor engraved with storm patterns and holding a giant sword slowly walked out.She looked at Zhou Li and Erma beside her, and took off her helmet, revealing her long golden hair and pretty face.

"Captain of the Storm Legion, Tiya, nice to meet you."
