Chen Huijie, I am not a good person anymore!

"I'm just kidding. I can't do something like stealing someone's love. Ahem, I'm serious."

"Don't challenge my bottom line, Tolan. You know what happened to the last person who tried to treat the people around me as commodities."

He gently held Afdoka's hand under the table and told her not to worry. Luo Ya almost wanted to hit Tolan on the head with a sword. This guy clearly wanted to test Afdoka's identity and her relationship with him, but he just asked directly and had to use such an unpleasant way, which reduced his favorability a lot.

Of course Tolan knew that someone had tried to trick Xiao Ke into selling him, and ended up in a miserable situation. At least Tolan did not want to become the poor guy who had his hands and feet chopped off and thrown into a wine jar, and he realized that what he had done was indeed wrong.

"My apologies, young lady. As a token of my apology, I am willing to help you. However, I cannot decide what you need by myself. The Rusty Hammer group probably won't mind if hundreds of you want to survive in the wilderness of Casimir. However, some people will definitely not like it and think you have offended them."

He took Roya's deal and expressed his apologies, but these things were indeed not something Tolan could decide.

"You should know 'yellow smoke' and 'fire lungs', right?"

"I've heard that the two most powerful mercenary leaders in Casimir have many scavengers and bounty hunters under their command. They are in the wilderness near Ursus."

After the unfriendly exchange just now, Luo Ya's expression was still very cold, which made Tolan somewhat embarrassed. It was inevitable that he would become frivolous after hanging around in a place like Songqiu Town for too long. Fortunately, Luo Ya did not take action directly, so this matter could still be discussed.

Having said that, Luo Ya knew what Tolan was going to say next, so he picked up the bow and motioned for Avdoja to follow him.

"I'll come back in seven days."

"I wish you success, but let me also be clear, this is just a down payment."

Strictly speaking, this was more like a test of Roya's ability. Tolan raised his glass and took a sip. Then he suddenly felt something and spit out the wine in one breath.

"My god, it's so hot!"

Listening to the wailing coming from inside, Luo Ya reached out and gently patted Afdoka's head, and rubbed her ears. To be honest, the feeling was better than Xiao Ke and Rosemary's. After all, Afdoka had always taken good care of her, but the most important thing was her current mood.

"Avdoga, are you feeling better?"

"It's been much better since you helped me out, but you should still call me Hong Xue outside so that I won't be targeted."

Afdoka smiled charmingly. She was indeed very angry just now, but when she thought that Luo Ya actually risked the failure of the cooperation to stand up for her, she felt very happy, and even had an indescribable sense of pride and more peace of mind.

"Since you are willing to come with me, then of course I have to protect you. That guy is just a mouthful and he won't dare to do it next time."

It was easy for Roya to use Draco's power and the spirit of words to make the wine boil the moment it entered Tolan's mouth. The day before yesterday, when he said he was coming to Songqiu Town to visit his old friends, Afdoka was worried that he would have a lot of trouble because of his blindness, and the other people in the Integration Movement needed to do a lot of things, so she volunteered to follow him.

Avdoka felt better after hearing what Roya said, but she was also a little worried.

"What if the cooperation fails because you help me?"

"Then it won't work." Roya touched the sword at his waist. "If I can't even protect you, how can I protect the rest of the Reunion? Besides, if someone really has to sacrifice for the Reunion, it can only be me."

Regardless of how Avdoga felt after hearing this, Roya was not just saying this to please others. After all, he could be resurrected, and if something really happened, it wouldn't matter if he died. But Avdoga had finally escaped from the nightmare past, and she deserved a better future.

As for why he didn't bring Abrana's sword but replaced it with Da Yan's, it was simply because Abrana's sword was too damaged and Roya felt distressed.

But when he thought of a hot pot fanatic he met in Longmen who not only ate his offerings but also wanted to do some archaeological work, Luo Ya felt that it didn't matter how he messed with the long sword at his waist.

"Let's go, there are still many things to do."

"Yeah." Reaching out her hand and holding Roya's, Avdoka was not at all opposed to such an intimate action. She just told herself in her heart that it was nothing. Since Roya couldn't see, this was the only way to lead him.

She was in a better mood than ever before. During this period of time, Roya protected her in the Integration Movement, and he continued to protect her after she came out, and he cared about her mood. She enjoyed the feeling of being protected very much, so she also wanted to do something for Roya, preferably something that only she could do.

In Afdoka's heart, the girl's unique feelings are gradually taking root, growing and brewing.

Chapter 144 Afdoka's Little Thoughts

Terra was a world that was extremely unfamiliar to Roya. The only place that he felt somewhat familiar with was Dayan, which was very similar to his hometown. However, apart from Longmen, he had only been to Yumen City in Dayan once. Therefore, if Roya wanted the Integration Movement to temporarily settle down in Casimir without being disturbed, it was not enough to just find Tolan. He needed to figure out how the various forces in Casimir were distributed and what attitude they would have towards this group of suddenly infected people.

But before that, Roya needed to fulfill his agreement with Tolan, and then he could ask him about what other forces were hiding in the dark besides the knight nobles and the Commercial Federation in Casimir. This was also the main reason why he appeared in this tavern called "Yellow Smoke" now.

The tavern in the wilderness would only entertain guests with blood on their bodies. As soon as Luo Ya and Hong Xue entered the tavern, they smelled a bloody smell and a slight stink. The voices of bounty hunters could be heard everywhere. Luo Ya could also feel many people's eyes sweeping over him, and finally they all stopped at Hong Xue. After all, even if this girl covered her face, it was not difficult to tell from her figure that she was a very beautiful girl, not to mention that she didn't cover it.

Reaching out and gently holding Hongxue's hand to signal her not to worry, Luo Ya took her to the bar and sat down.

"Two glasses of Captain Morgan, on the rocks."

After saying that, Luo Ya expanded his perception range to the entire tavern, and used Draco's thermal induction and his own consciousness perception to determine who his target was. Then he felt something, held Hong Xue's hand a little harder, and drew an arrow on her palm.

Hong Xue immediately understood and looked towards Luo Ya's side. There sat a woman with silver hair and red eyes. She was wearing a strange blue-black uniform and a pointed hat. She had a big sword on her back and was tasting wine quietly.

There are not many people who can attract Luo Ya's special attention, which means that this woman is very powerful, or at least a threat. After noticing Hong Xue's gaze, she looked back, but then her attention was attracted by the voices of the bounty hunters over there.

"Hey, let me tell you, we made a big profit a few days ago, enough to live on for several years. Don't you really want to consider joining us? This is much better than participating in that knight competition."

Hong Xue looked in the direction where the voice came from. She saw two unfriendly and scarred Kuranta men sandwiching a taller, dark-skinned Fengti man, as if they were trying to persuade him to join their team. Hong Xue recognized at a glance that the two men were her and Luo Ya's targets, and they were also very famous bounty hunter brothers in Casimir, the "Yellow Smoke" and "Fire Lung" brothers.

Hong Xue had heard something about the Knights Tournament. It was a competition event that had been popular in Casimir for many years and was quite famous. It was a grand event that was held every three years in Casimir.

Roya obviously sensed their presence, and his tail couldn't help but touch the sword at his waist. Although he didn't want to admit it, this sword was much more useful than Abrana's heirloom. It could even be said to be a sword specially made for Roya. It could not only perfectly display the power of the Scarlet Sky Swordsmanship, but also help Roya control the flames. But Roya didn't think that the old beggar knew that he had become Drake, so why did he forge the sword like this?

Luo Ya wanted to ask about this matter in person after returning to Longmen. It would be fine if the offerings were eaten, but of course he had to dig up his grave himself. There was no way he would let others do the archaeological work.

Just when Luo Ya finished his sabbatical and was thinking about how to get rid of the two brothers Huang Yan and Huo Fei as quickly as possible, he felt that the extremely powerful consciousness beside him focused on him. In fact, she had been observing Luo Ya intentionally or unintentionally since she walked in.

"who are you?"

"An ordinary bounty hunter, the kind you can find everywhere." Luo Ya picked up the wine glass in front of him, then put it down. Hong Xue also put it down without drinking a sip.

For Luo Ya, this mission was originally very easy. After all, he did not think that the two brothers Huang Yan and Huo Fei were difficult to deal with. In fact, this was also what he felt. The consciousness of Huang Yan and Huo Fei was not strong. At most, they were stronger than Chen Huijie without Chi Xiao. If the two brothers cooperated, they could exert the power of 1+1=3, but it was still not a problem for Luo Ya.

But what surprised Roya was that the woman next to him had a strong consciousness, and gave him a slightly familiar feeling, just like Tallulah who was possessed by the black snake. There was another more powerful consciousness in her mind, but the latter seemed to be just sleeping.

The second is the man sandwiched between the two brothers "Yellow Smoke" and "Fire Lung". Roya feels that he is not weak either, at least much stronger than the two brothers combined, probably on the same level as the normally serious Frost Star. Hmm... Thinking about it this way, the high-end combat power of the Integrated Movement is simply a dimensionality reduction attack on the bounty hunter ecology on Casimir's side.

However, if the woman next to him is in cahoots with Huang Yan and the others, Luo Ya will have to send Hong Xue out first and find a safe place before taking action. After all, the opponent's strength may be at the same level as the Patriots.

Seeing that Luo Ya answered her question casually without even saying her name, the silver-haired woman couldn't help feeling unhappy. However, the aura of the other party was so familiar, which made her curious about Luo Ya's identity. After all, her compatriots shouldn't have these strange horns and tails. However, the other party's attitude should mean that he wanted her to introduce herself first, so her tone was as cold as before.

"My name is Skadi, and I'm also a bounty hunter."

(There's nothing wrong with his tone, but he's too concerned about me. Could it be that he knows me in the past? Could it be that he's the one I messed with before?)

Skadi's tone and other aspects showed that she had no ill will towards Luo Ya, which meant that she should not be a member of Huang Yan's gang. After all, this tavern was actually one of the bases of Huang Yan's brothers, a den for selling stolen goods. The information given by Tolan would not be wrong. Luo Ya and Hong Xue were being watched since they entered the door. If the person next to them was also an accomplice of Huang Yan and Huo Fei, then his tone would definitely not be so polite.

With the two precedents of Kal'tsit and Kashena, and the fact that the other party seemed to care about him a lot, it was hard for Roya not to doubt whether he knew the other party in the past. However, what surprised him was that after hearing Skadi introduce herself, the whole tavern was actually quiet, but soon many whispers were heard.

"She is Skadi, the rookie bounty hunter who has become famous recently?"

"I heard that she wiped out a scavenger camp by herself. What was she doing here?"

"Why don't we go first? I feel like it might not be safe later."

"What are you afraid of? This is Brother Huang Yan's territory. Who dares to act recklessly? The whole village outside is theirs. If you cause trouble, you might die without knowing how."

It seems that Skadi is not a member of Huang Yan's group, but Luo Ya still can't understand why she cares so much about him. Do they really know each other? He can introduce himself and test the other party's background.

"My name is Luo Ya, um, when I was a mercenary I was called Noah."

If Skadi's name only made the tavern quiet for a while, then when Roya introduced himself, all the bounty hunters in the tavern subconsciously put their hands on their weapons. Even Huangyan and Huofei, who were trying to win over others, were stunned for a moment, and then they noticed the black longbow on Roya's back. Because Roya's appearance had changed to Drake, they did not recognize it for a while.

The name Noah is extremely famous among the bounty hunters in Casimir. Although there were dozens or even hundreds of bounty hunters who attacked the Black Steel International convoy, Roya was the only successful one, and Black Steel International even offered a high reward for him. For bounty hunters, a higher bounty means more danger, but also greater strength.

Although Luo Ya disappeared for two months after that, Black Steel International still had a bounty on him. The bounty hunters who took up weapons just now were not only on guard against him, but also subconsciously regarded him as a big piece of fat meat.

"Roya...I think I made a mistake. Are you from Agor?"

Skadi lowered her eyes in disappointment. She recalled but could not find the name Roya in her memory. However, she seemed to have some impression of "Noah", but she could not tell whether she had heard the same name before.

Skadi's question aroused Roya's curiosity. He had heard of the name of Agor, a country in the sea. It was said that they had extremely advanced science and technology. The Agor people had no racial characteristics in appearance and were very similar to the humans in his previous life. Back then, it was only the technical support of some immigrants that allowed Iberia, a coastal country, to become the overlord of Terra. It was conceivable how high the scientific level of the Agor themselves was. They even completely disdained to interact with people on the ground.

But this is strange. Luo Ya is very clear that his appearance is Drak, but many people don't know the Drak race, so most people regard him as a relatively rare tribe among the Vaifans. No matter how you think about it, he is not an Agor... No, he seemed to have no racial characteristics before. So it seems that he is really related to the Agor.

"I don't know. Maybe I really am from Agor. After all, I didn't have any racial characteristics before. My current appearance is due to some accidents. As for the past, I have forgotten a lot."

Since Skadi was not familiar with these two names, Luo Ya did not need to doubt that she knew her past self. Huang Yan and Huo Fei obviously realized that Luo Ya was an uninvited guest, but they were still observing his reaction. The people on the second floor of the tavern had already aimed their crossbows at Luo Ya, and would shoot him if there was any problem.

Luo Ya didn't care about the crossbows pointed at him at all. He patted Hong Xue gently and told her not to be too nervous. Then he took off his mask and hood so that Skadi could see his face clearly.

"So Miss Skadi, are you in league with them?"

"No, I just happened to be looking for a place to have a drink."

Skadi shook her head slightly, her smooth silver hair fluttering. She didn't want to have anything to do with these people.

"So, what about the gentleman over there? Are you one of them too?"

Luo Ya's attention was focused on the man who had been won over by Huang Yan and Huo Fei. If the other party also wanted to be his enemy, then this mission would be more troublesome, after all, he was bringing Hong Xue who could not fight.

"No, I'm just passing by and want to go to the Great Knight Territory of Casimir."

"That's good. After all, you are very strong. I don't want to add extra trouble to my mission."

It was obvious that Luo Ya was here to cause trouble, but Huang Yan and Huo Fei couldn't understand how he got the courage to act so recklessly in their camp. You have to know that there were thirty crossbows pointed at him, and more than forty people blocked his way. Ninety percent of the people in the tavern were theirs.

But Luo Ya is famous after all. Anyone who dares to rob the Black Steel International Transport Convoy must be a tough guy. Huang Yan still doesn't want to have a conflict.

"Young man, don't think you are an important person just because you are a little famous. It's not good to be young and impetuous. As long as you tell us who asked you to come, leave the woman next to you and leave obediently, we will not embarrass you because you are a junior."

Unlike Tolan's half-joking, Huang Yan was obviously really attracted by Hong Xue's appearance. Such beauties were rare. Although Skadi was not bad, he did not want to provoke Skadi and Luoya to unite.

Hong Xue almost couldn't help laughing when she heard Huang Yan calling Luo Ya a young man. But when she heard the second half of the sentence, she couldn't laugh at all. How come all these bounty hunters are like this? It turns out that except for Luo Ya, none of them are good people.

Now it was Luo Ya who wanted to laugh. He was really curious about how beautiful Hong Xue or Afdoka was to attract so many people's attention. It was a pity that he couldn't see it. However, he would never agree to Huang Yan's request.

"If young people are not full of energy, can they still be called young people?"

By pushing his own wine in front of Skadi, Luoya had already made his attitude clear, and Huangyan and Huofei signaled to take action without hesitation.

The first thing that flew over were dozens of crossbow arrows, enough to sting anyone into a hornet's nest, but Luo Ya was not even willing to move a step away. The moment he opened his mouth, the time around him seemed to slow down.

"Fly back."

All the crossbow arrows stopped in mid-air the moment they were about to hit Luo Ya, then turned around and flew back at the original speed, killing and wounding most of the archers on the upper floor.

This strange scene surprised Skadi and the dark-skinned Fengti people. Huangyan and Huofei had never expected that Roya had such ability. But what surprised them even more was the flames. Black flames came out from the surroundings and enveloped the entire tavern.

Although Luo Ya's expression didn't seem to be anything special, Hong Xue felt that he must be angry. She knew that Luo Ya was not a person who liked to put on a show, but when he got angry, the scene he created was never small.

Was he angry for her? She didn't know, but she inexplicably hoped so, so she just assumed it was so.

Chapter 145 Luo Ya's kidnapping plan

In the pine forest on the border of Casimir, in the temporary base of the Reunion Movement, Tallulah took a look at the dress she was wearing and frowned uncontrollably. She felt that the dress was too light and too loose. What if she was exposed?

"Hey Alina, why don't I just wear my old outfit? I'm not used to wearing skirts."

Looking at Alina who was smiling particularly happily, Talula looked embarrassed. She really didn't know when Alina had prepared such a black skirt for her. It must have been sewed by her own hands, otherwise it would not have been possible for it to fit her well.

But when Alina heard Tallulah say that she wanted to change it back, her expression suddenly became serious, completely different from the gentle look just now.

"You are not allowed to change. You are now in Casimir's territory. How can you still wear the Ursus military uniform? Not to mention that it is old clothes and will restrict your body development."

"...Actually, you just want to see me wearing a skirt."

Tallulah ruthlessly exposed Alina's idea. In fact, it was not that Tallulah could not accept wearing skirts at all. It was just that she had been wearing tight military uniforms for so many years. She was not used to changing back to skirts. The more she wore them, the more uncomfortable she felt.

Seeing that Tallulah had burned the thin skirt she had carefully prepared, Alina frowned slightly, and then decided to use a trump card.

"But I think Roya will like you like this."

Tallulah stopped trying to take off her skirt and looked at Alina doubtfully.

"Are you serious?"

Seeing that Tallulah seemed to be okay with wearing a skirt, Alina immediately stepped up her persuasion. To be honest, she was not sure whether Roya wanted to see it, but she really wanted to see it. This was also the first time Alina saw Tallulah wearing a skirt. Although her temperament still had some room for improvement, it was indeed very suitable.

"Of course, I have talked to him before. He told me that you would look great in a skirt, preferably with black stockings. He seemed to know what you look like."

Her originally frowned brows suddenly relaxed, and Tallulah suddenly felt that the skirt was not so uncomfortable anymore. Although it was still a little light and not quite used to it, she could take it slowly.

"Roya does know what I look like. Draco can communicate through fire. Hey, Alina, do you have any high heels? I'll buy a pair and try it out."

Sure enough, I have to use Roya to deal with this guy. Thinking of this, Alina took out a pair of exquisite black leather boots. She exchanged them with a merchant a few months ago. At that time, she thought they were very suitable for Tallulah. Unfortunately, Roya had not joined the Integration Movement at that time. Tallulah didn't wear them at that time, saying that it would hinder the battle. Now she is eager to change them herself.

But I have to say that after Tallulah put on her new clothes, she really seemed like a different person. Compared to the previous leader who was upright, meticulous, enthusiastic and just, she had more of a woman's temperament. She was not delicate but attractive, just like a rose that was beautiful but had thorns.

Sometimes Alina would wonder, of all the things Kosice taught Tallulah, was it the only thing he didn't teach her about how to dress herself and her fashion sense? It was such a pity that she had to wear that tight uniform when she had such a good figure and appearance.

"If Luo Ya saw it, he would definitely not be able to take his eyes away."

"It's a pity that he can't see it."
