Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

Later, Emilia reluctantly said goodbye to Banning, and then was so happy that she couldn't sleep all night.

As for Jiang Ran, he was so tired that he fell asleep as soon as he got back to the hotel.

The next day, Jiang Ran cheered up and continued with his daily routine.

He has become adept at improving his skill proficiency and producing antidotes in batches.

After breakfast, Jiang Ran first inspected the Quest Guild, and then went to check out the Adventurer Guild. At present, everything was calm.

Jiang Ran speculated that after the mayor failed to find his son's whereabouts yesterday, he should take some action, such as bringing people to the task union to ask for his son.

The last time the mayor's son Kivey appeared in Sunny Town was when he was causing trouble at the Mission Guild. Now that he is missing, it will be difficult for the Mission Guild to deny its involvement even without evidence.

Although this situation is not good for the task union, it is exactly the development that Jiang Ran wants.

As the saying goes, it is easy to hide from an open gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.

As long as the opposing relationship can be established, the task union will not be so dangerous.

Since the mayor hasn't taken any action yet, it only means that he is still "accumulating strength".

He would not create trouble for no reason like Kiwi did, but would bring absolute evidence or absolute force to wipe out the Task Force Guild in one fell swoop.

(Absolute evidence is definitely missing... which means... he's waiting for outside help.)

(Local security forces cannot be used for private fights, but if they are mercenaries hired from outside, it will not affect his reputation as the mayor.)

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran quickened his pace and headed for the equipment store that Branch Chief Oleg had introduced to him before.

"Good morning, Master Craftsman!"

"Oh, it's you. You can't wait to see the plan, right?"

Today is the day Jiang Ran agreed upon with the craftsman. As long as the plan is finalized, they can start forging the equipment.

[See "4.52 - Preparing for War"]

[img=700,311]https://rss.sfacg.com/web/novel/images/UploadPic/2022/11/14396fbd-afdf-4bc9-8e53-25d208b29a53.jpg[/img]

"Yes, I've been looking forward to it every day for the past three days. Master, you must have designed something amazing. Let me see the plan!"

The craftsman was in a good mood when he saw the young man's support, and he took out two draft plans with a smile.

The first plan is to design equipment around the Corruption Claw of the Corruption-Removing Poison Blade Rat King.

The Corrupt Claw itself has very strong hardness and is suitable for direct grinding and transformation into a sharp weapon, so the masters finally decided to make a curved blade dagger based on the size and shape of the Corrupt Claw, and open a bleeding groove on the dagger to help bring out the toxicity of the Corrupt Claw itself.

The second plan is to use equipment that utilizes the "Magic Core of the Shadow Devouring Rockdemon Svalerok".

Things like monster cores are not suitable for being made directly into equipment. Their function is to be embedded in the core position of the equipment to provide some characteristics to the equipment.

Whether the characteristics are attached successfully or not depends on the grade of the magic core. Usually the success rate of the second grade and below is almost zero, and the success rate of the third grade and above is about 5% to 15%. The second thing is the compatibility between the magic core and the equipment. This is more metaphysical and is almost up to fate.

If the characteristic attachment fails, the magic core will be directly scrapped, so few people are willing to gamble with the third-level magic core. Most people prefer to sell the third-level magic core in exchange for a large amount of money.

Even if the attachment is successful, the characteristics are random, and some characteristics may even have negative effects.

Therefore, there are very few equipments that have excellent characteristics.

"This magic core is relatively small. We suggest making it into gloves or boots. It's up to you, young man."

The craftsman gave the decision to Jiang Ran, who thought about it for a while and made his choice.

"Then make it into boots."

"Are you sure? If the special feature fails to attach, don't blame our craftsmanship, okay?"

"Master, I believe in the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in Sunny Town."

After hearing what the young man said, the craftsman dared to let go and work hard. He was very eager to try forging equipment with such rare materials.

"Master, how long will it take to deliver the goods?"

"Four days, about that. Also, the material and production costs will add up to two gold coins. Since you're a benefactor of Sunny Town, I won't ask for the full payment now. You can pay it back when you have the money."

The craftsman was a good man. Jiang Ran could tell that he was not going to overcharge anyone. The asking price of two gold coins was not profitable at all.

However, four days was too long for Jiang Ran.

"How about this, Master."

Jiang Ran took out four gold coins and placed them neatly on the table.

"Two days, four gold coins, payable in cash, is that okay?"

[Confession death countdown remaining: 27 days]

━━━━━━━━━━

In a luxuriously decorated mansion, the mayor of Sunny Town, Kilian, had just finished listening to the report from his subordinates.

So many people were dispatched, even searching the suburbs, but they couldn't find any trace of Kivi... Mayor Kilian knew in his heart that his son was probably gone.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't sad, but if I said I was sad, I wasn't that sad either.

Mayor Kilian was now feeling more angry.

His own son was actually murdered in the town he governed! Isn't this a slap in his face?

The murderer simply didn't take him, Gillian, seriously!

In anger, Mayor Kilian immediately issued two orders, one was to add guards to his other children, and the other was to triple the funds used to hire "outside personnel".

For Mayor Gillian, the death of his good-for-nothing eldest son was of no concern, but nothing could happen to his two younger sons and one daughter who still had hope.

This time, he was determined to make the Task Force Guild disappear from Sunny Town!

—(But… that old fellow Oleg has always valued peace…)

——(Such an extreme action this time... doesn't seem like something he would do...)

——(So... who exactly attacked Kive?)

Mayor Kilian will definitely blame Oleg for the death of his son. This is the best "reason" to use against the Task Union.

However, Mayor Kilian is not a shady person.

If someone wanted to borrow his "knife" to deal with the Task Union, he would not be so foolish as to let others use it.

So he issued a third order, asking someone to track and monitor Emilia from the Task Union.

The person who can move freely now and has the closest relationship with Oleg is this fox girl.

Mayor Kilian wants to take the opportunity to eradicate the Task Force Union, but at the same time he will not let go of the real murderer who killed his son.

In the task union, Emilia is working with other staff members to issue commissioned tasks.

In the past two days, everyone felt that Emilia had changed. Although she still had a blank expression on her face, her work attitude had become much more positive.

Some people even said that sometimes they could see Emilia smiling out the window.

"Emilia smiled? How is that possible?"

"Though, those little golden foxes on the hotel walls are really cute, aren't they?"

Everyone would discuss it quietly in private, but they certainly wouldn't dare to say it in person. They all knew about the relationship between Emilia and branch chief Oleg, and it would be bad if they made Emilia angry.

Besides the discussion about Emilia, a name called "Banning" has recently appeared in discussions among the bounty hunters.

The bounty hunters who survived the "Mulberry North Wasteland Incident" praised the newcomer named "Banning" highly, calling him a chivalrous warrior who dared to risk his life to lure away the enemy in order to protect his companions.

Then someone remembered that "Banning" was the guy who showed off with a golden badge of the Scarlet Qi family.

When everyone looked at the character's characteristics, they found that it was indeed the same person, so they became even more interested in this newcomer.

"I originally thought he was just a playboy, but I didn't expect him to be so dedicated."

"Maybe he's new to society and doesn't know the rules? I think his brave and courageous character will make him a great man in the future."

"Isn't there a rumor that he even killed the giant red-scaled snake?"

“Is this true? That’s impossible…!”

"..."

The hunters' discussions about reward came one after another. Emilia listened quietly on the side, feeling secretly proud in her heart.

——(Praise them, praise them as much as you can!)

——(You’ve only scratched the surface of Benning’s excellence!)

·

Although she was proud, Emilia also felt a sense of crisis while being proud of Benning's excellence.

Defeating the "One and Only Demon God" is a lifelong endeavor. No, to be more precise, it's a feat that requires the lives of countless people and generations to strive for.

If Banning can do this, he will undoubtedly become a legend in the history of Prison Star that has never been seen before or since.

In order to achieve this goal, Banning will definitely challenge the advanced trial in the near future. Emilia has already heard about this from Branch Chief Oleg.

Emilia has been stuck at level 20 for some years. Previously, she lost her parents and was disheartened, so she gave up the magician profession. But now, she has the motivation and courage to keep working hard.

After participating in two battles recently, she has further strengthened her confidence.

——(I also want to become stronger along with Benning and never become a burden to him!)

·

At the same time, Jiang Ran was also thinking about Emilia, but not in a loving way.

(Benni: I always feel that Emilia's mood changes a little too quickly... Jiang Yan, you better be careful. I don't understand the four emotions of love, but there is a kind of hatred called hatred caused by love. The rate of hatred is quite high, especially for a girl like Emilia.)

(Jiang Ran: You still know about hatchets?)

(Benni: Hum, I even know the meaning of “good ship”!)

The stupid loli was feeling proud in Jiang Ran's mind, while Jiang Ran seemed to be thinking about something.

Emilia's reaction after the misunderstanding was resolved was indeed a bit exaggerated, almost overturning Jiang Ran's previous perception of her.

Girls often only show their true side in front of the person they like. Perhaps, that is the real Emilia, who dares to love and hate, and is full of affection.

But because of this, Jiang Ran was a little worried about whether he could completely sever his relationship with Emilia when he left Sunny Town.

In Jiang Ran's plan, it would be best if he never saw the girl he had conquered again after getting the confession points.

However, due to various coincidences, he is currently unable to do it so cleanly and neatly.

If one day, girls like Wei'er, Viviana, and Emilia met together, the scene...

Just imagining it made Jiang Ran feel like a thorn in his back.

·

In the afternoon, Jiang Ran patrolled around the Mission Union again. This time, he found a suspicious guy.
