Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

After eating roasted rabbit together and defeating the Phantom Snow Mantis, the relationship between Junzu and Mr. Gfix has become more than strangers.

This increasingly familiar relationship made Junzu instinctively want to keep a distance from Mr. Gfix, so as not to accidentally leak the secrets of the Dark Rabbit Clan.

·

"Little sister, I plan to go to Norman Town and ask someone to help dismantle the monster, and then transport it to the town to see if I can sell it or something. What about you? What are your plans next?"

Mr. Griffiths seemed unaware of Junzu's little thoughts and was as carefree as before.

Junzu also thought this was a good opportunity to say goodbye, his only regret was that he could not repay the other party for saving his life.

——(Oh, and the silver-haired, red-eyed lady who saved my life last night… I wonder how she’s doing now…)

Thinking back on his near-death experience last night, Junzu felt that he owed more and more people.

The only thing she could do now was to remember these favors and hope that she would have the life to repay these benefactors in the future.

"Well... I'm planning to..."

Junzu looked at the white snow-capped mountains around him and wanted to make up an excuse, but he found that he couldn't even make up a decent excuse.

If he returned to the tribe's temporary retreat, the monster in the guise of his mother would surely have set a trap for him.

But if I go out, where can I go when no one even recognizes me?

Among the options before Junzu, the only feasible one is to train and practice alone until he is strong enough, then return to the tribe and expose the true face of the monster.

However, the time required for this practice is obviously not as simple as ten days or half a month. Once you embark on this path, it will be difficult to achieve results without three to five years.

By that time, the tribe would have been completely ravaged by the monster. What would be the point of going back?

——(I…I…where should I go?)

Gallop looked at Mr. Griffiths, unable to continue his unfinished words.

Do you want to take a gamble on this man of unknown origin?

Such a ridiculous thought suddenly flashed through Junzu's mind.

·

Absurd, but reasonable idea.

·

When there is no power within the tribe to rely on, only power outside the tribe can solve the problem.

And this "former wandering mercenary": Mr. Gfix, is not only extremely powerful, but also has a kind heart.

Junzu even began to think that what she should worry about was not whether Mr. Gfix was reliable, but whether Mr. Gfix was willing to help the Dark Rabbit Clan.

After all, the Dark Rabbit clan has a very bad reputation in the outside world.

"I actually... don't know where to go."

When all his thoughts came to no avail, Junzu couldn't help but tell the truth.

"Oh? Are you in any trouble?"

Mr. Geffex put away the smile on his face and replaced it with a serious expression.

Seeing that the other party was so serious about him, Junzu finally let go of the last line of defense in his heart.

Isolated and helpless, she decided to bet her future and the Dark Rabbit clan's future on the man in front of her.

·

After making the decision, Junzu no longer concealed his identity and told Mr. Gfix the truth that he was from the Dark Rabbit clan.

Mr. Gfix was very surprised at first. He said he had always thought that the Dark Rabbit Clan was just a legend, and he didn't expect that such a race really existed.

Then he said that Steedfoot looked different from the Dark Rabbit Clan in the legend. The Dark Rabbit Clan in the legend were all cruel and ruthless guys. How could a kind and polite child like Steedfoot be a Dark Rabbit Clan?

After being praised by Mr. Geffex, Junzu's originally nervous mood immediately relaxed a lot.

She explained to Mr. Gfix that because the Dark Rabbit Clan lived in seclusion for many years, there were bound to be many misunderstandings from the outside world. If Mr. Gfix was willing to visit the Dark Rabbit Clan, he would probably have a new understanding of the Dark Rabbit Clan.

At this point in the conversation, according to normal development, Junzu would have formally extended the invitation, and Mr. Geffex would have gladly accepted it.

However, the current situation of Junzu and the Dark Rabbit clan is not a state where they can invite anyone casually.

After a few seconds of silence, Junzu took the initiative to tell the reason why she was seriously injured. She told Mr. Gfix that there was a monster that could mimic humans and took her mother's position in the tribe. Her real mother and her sister Fenger were now missing and suspected to have been killed by the monster.

"Mr. Gfix...can you, can you help us?" Junzu gathered all his strength and squeezed out these words from between his teeth.

After she finished speaking, she lowered her head and eyes, not daring to look Mr. Geffex in the eye.

And Mr. Geffex's answer to her was...

"I'm sorry, little sister... I can't agree to this request."

10.143 - Delegation

Hearing the answer, Striding Foot's body trembled.

She was quite surprised by Mr. Geffex's refusal, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that the refusal was actually reasonable.

The two people who met by chance had no relationship with each other, but to go to the tribe to fight against unknown dangerous monsters together obviously requires a certain foundation of trust and mutual understanding.

"Mr. Geffex, you don't have to apologize. It was my fault for not asking you this."

Junzu didn't want to embarrass Mr. Geffex, so he immediately took all the responsibility on himself.

At this time, Mr. Griffiths changed the subject and gave Junzu hope again.

"Haha, little sister, you're too polite. I just rejected you, not because I really couldn't agree, but... well, how should I put it? In the adult world, we value 'profit' more."

As Mr. Geffex said this, he took out a roll of parchment from his arms and unfolded it for Steed to see. On it was written the content of the investigation commission.

"Look, take the commission I accepted this time for example. Although the Besent area is quite dangerous, as long as the commission reward is high enough, then I have a reason to take the risk... right?" said Mr. Gfix.

·

Commission, remuneration.

These key words fell on Gallop's mind, and she immediately understood Mr. Griffiths' intention.

Yes, if it is a piece of cake to carry the fallen Galloping Foot back into the crevice;

If you say that defeating the Phantom Snow Ghost Mantis in a short time is a violation of justice;

Then going to a certain cave community and risking unknown dangers to solve the major hidden dangers of the secluded tribe is a deliberate troublesome matter.

Geffex has no reason to go through such trouble, so he needs Gallopfoot to give him a reason.

For a "former mercenary" and "current reward hunter", there is no more suitable reason than "reward".

However, Junzu, who has lived a secluded life for many years, has no property to use as a reward.

It is no exaggeration to say that the most valuable possession on her body is the "Blood Tiger Claw" that has just been sharpened in battle.

"Well, Mr. Geffex, I understand what you mean, but I'm afraid I can't offer you a decent reward..."

Junzu lowered her head even lower. She felt that she was really useless.

However, Mr. Geffex, who was standing opposite her, didn't think so. He took the initiative to step forward and patted Junzu's shoulder, then told the dark rabbit girl that she was not completely without anything.

"You've overlooked one thing, little sister... You actually possess the most precious treasure in the world. The name of this treasure is 'youth'."

Mr. Griffiths said that Junzu didn't have to pay the reward now, and it was okay to pay her later when she had money.

“Eh…? Is this even possible?”

Upon hearing such a special method, Junzu's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Yes, of course. So if it's convenient, could you tell me your name, little sister?"

Mr. Geffex smiled as he took out his quill and ink and began to draw up the agreement on a blank sheet of parchment.

·

Under Junzu's watchful eye, Mr. Gfix quickly wrote a meticulous commission agreement, the general content of which was: the reward hunter Gfix would accompany Junzu, a girl from the Dark Rabbit clan, back to the temporary cave where the tribe lived in seclusion, and help her defeat the monsters that endangered the safety of the tribe and reveal the truth to the Dark Rabbit clan.

In return, the Galloping Girl needs to pay Geffex one hundred gold coins or equivalent as compensation, which must be paid within thirty years.

If the Galloping Girl dies before the payment is made, Geffex will have priority over the Galloping Girl's estate.

[Note: One hundred gold coins are equivalent to the purchasing power of one million RMB.]

Seeing the astronomical figure of one hundred gold coins, Junzu's jaw almost dropped to the ground.

"Mr. Fix... This is so much money, how can I ever pay it back?"

"Don't panic, Sister Junzu. We still have thirty years to go. If you can earn thirty or forty thousand gold coins a year, you'll be able to pay it off slowly."

Mr. Griffiths' explanation seemed to make sense to Junzu.

As a person who is not good at thinking, it is no surprise that Junzu is also not good at mathematics.

Now she thought, thirty or forty thousand gold coins a year didn't sound like that much.

Moreover, defeating monsters and saving the tribe is actually the responsibility of the entire Dark Rabbit clan. If the time comes, she will ask the tribesmen to work with her to earn money to pay off the debt, and everyone should agree, right?

Thinking of this, Junzu suddenly felt the pressure on his shoulders was much less.

Taking a step back, no matter how high the price Mr. Griffiths offered, as long as he was willing to help first and then get paid, that would be enough for Junzu.

After all, if the tribe is harmed by monsters, the dead cannot be resurrected.

"I understand, Mr. Geffex, I agree to your terms!"

Junzu felt that he had grasped the key point and made a decision immediately to avoid himself, who was not good at thinking, from falling into some strange thinking problem.

Mr. Griffiths was also very straightforward. He immediately handed the quill pen and parchment to Junzu to sign, and then sealed it with wax and stamped it.

"Alright, Sister Junzu, now that I've officially accepted your commission, let's get going without further ado!"

"Ok!"

·

In order to save Junzu's tribe, Mr. Gfix didn't even want the materials of the Phantom Snow Ghost Mantis. He just dug out the magic core and left.

Junzu saw Mr. Griffiths's righteous behavior and was filled with gratitude.

However, the dark rabbit girl did not know that she had a congenital physical defect and it was impossible for her to live for another thirty years;

What she didn't know was that Mr. Geffex didn't help her for any reward at all.

From the very beginning, Gallop Foot fell into Mr. Griffiths' trap.

Mr. Geffex's real purpose is to make Junzu ask for his help.

·

On the way to the tribe's temporary retreat, Mr. Geffex took the initiative to ask about the Dark Rabbit Clan, which made Junzu feel a clear difference.

Before signing the commission contract, Mr. Geffex always maintained a polite distance and did not ask about Junzu's affairs at all.

After signing the contract, Mr. Geffex immediately demonstrated his professionalism as a reward hunter, making Junzu understand what it meant to "intelligence warfare is a frontier battle that must not be ignored."

In order to help Mr. Gaffix win, Junzu told him everything he knew.

Starting with the "nightmare" last night, Junzu recounted everything he had experienced in detail.

10.144 - The Path to Truth

(Stupid Loli: It wasn’t easy, Jiang Yan, but I finally let you succeed.)

As always, the compliments from the stupid loli are still so unpleasant.

Jiang Ran knew that this girl had rarely seen the opportunity to mock and ridicule him, and he was determined to take revenge for all the bitterness and hatred he had suffered in the past.

The way to make this little girl lose face is very simple, that is to ignore her.

If you have the ability, just jump out of the eyes of the God of Super Dimension and walk away, right?

Right now, the most important thing for Jiang Ran is the "treasure trove of intelligence" - that is, the Steed-footed girl of the Dark Rabbit clan.

According to Junzu's description, this "monster" who can disguise herself as the "Dark Rabbit Queen Wusuoqi" not only has the strength of the sixth or even seventh level, but has also infiltrated the inner circle of the Dark Rabbit clan.

Combined with the battle situation Jiang Ran observed last night, the strength of the "monster" is real, and it is very likely that some of it has not been brought into play.

But regarding the issue of "infiltration", Jiang Ran felt that this might not be a direct danger, but a huge "doubt".
