dark moon

Chapter 159 Connectors
Diana of the Silver Moon danced briskly and stopped in the middle of the sky, showing off her beautiful dancing postures to the world. Semiya, the lady of the night sky, hid behind the darkness, lifted the mysterious veil, and cast her passionate gaze on the mortal world. In this world, Wind Sailuo carries his luggage, rolls up the fallen leaves in late autumn, and strides tirelessly into the distance.

The chirping birds have been noisy all day long, and now they have fallen into a deep sleep tiredly. The chirping of insects in late autumn has taken over the right to speak, singing in every corner of the streets and alleys, making the city resound with a late autumn sonata. .

Singing the glory of the gods, the clergymen wearing various holy robes closed the doors of the sacred hall one after another. Sacred hymns came from the closed sacred hall. Hundreds of churches praised the gods at the same time. This is what happens every night. A spectacular scene that occurs during worship.

It's like this every day, night in the pantheon, just like always.

As time went by, the aroma of food began to spread on the streets of the temple, and people gradually began to appear on the deserted roads after nightfall.After replacing the stereotyped holy robes and putting on personal clothes that showed their individuality, the priests left the sacred hall and each found a place to spend the night. Most temples were not abstinent. During the long night, it was the believers. Find time to be happy. Even in this city made up of churches, there is too much happiness lurking in the night.

"Creak", the door of Tree Hole and Donkey's Ear - a tavern with a very strange name - was gently pushed open, and five travelers in cloaks walked into the lively tavern with the cool night wind.

As soon as I walked in, a wave of heat hit my face.

It's not the actual temperature that's hot, but the fiery atmosphere.

Although the temperature in the tavern was indeed not lower than the cold night outside, it was far from the warm atmosphere like a fire.

Hundreds of guests crowded into the small tavern, making the hall of the tavern extremely crowded and noisy.

In the bar at the end of the hall, the arms of several bartenders seemed to have been dragged out of the afterimages, and the wine shakers became the most magical magic props in their hands. Cups of colorful and delicious wines were shaken like magic. It was generated in the wine vessel, and then disappeared into the mouths of the drinkers surrounding the bar.

In the corner of the bar, several dartboards have become the most popular entertainment props. At least ten customers dressed as mercenaries are surrounding the targets, and there are even less number of busybodies nearby who are watching the excitement and commotion.

The targets that were originally very ordinary are like tricks in the hands of these guys. Throwing?Throwing blindfolded?Post-up throw?What does that mean? How can a mercenary game be so simple?Throwing to five targets at the same time, this is just the basics, throwing by hand?No, no, no, the mercenaries all throw with their feet or mouth.Hit the bullseye?Sorry, that doesn't count at all. We have to use darts to draw images on the target. The clearer and more complex the image, the higher the score.You may be surprised to see that there is no target over there, but the silhouette of the beautiful woman on it looks like a painting. Well, it was originally painted to deceive people.

The two shirtless men held each other's hands on the table. Their muscles were bulging high. They were squirming like snakes with all their strength. Sweat slipped from the ravines of the muscles. Before it touched the table, it was evaporated by the body temperature. In the mist, several people gathered around the two of them, beating the table and shouting wildly. The transparent wine splashed from the wine glass with the impact, and the pungent smell of alcohol was like lighting another fire to the warm atmosphere.

There were more people gathered on the other side, but it was much quieter here. A group of people seemed to be afraid to breathe, holding their breath and staring at the protagonists at the table.The shiny gold coins are stacked in a pile on the table, each one is crystal clear and emits the cutest light. The thin cards are as heavy as a thousand pounds in the hand, and every touch makes people feel heavier.

Gorgeous lights flash above the head, and fast-paced music stimulates people's hearts, making them beat farther. The aroma of powder spreads in the closed space, mixed with the aroma of alcohol, stimulating the most primitive impulses in people's hearts. The glistening skin covered with sweat flickered with the swing of the waist, and one couldn't help but reach out to wipe away the water stains on the skin.

Here is Tree Hole and Donkey's Ear, the most famous tavern within the pantheon of gods. It is a wonderful place where mercenaries and believers of the gods can coexist harmoniously. It is the link between the world of gods and the mortal world.

This place is located near the city gate of the Temple of the Gods. It is an industry run by the guardians of travelers and the believers of Wind Silo. These believers of the wind, who have poetry and distant places hidden in their hearts and are hopelessly romantic, regard the upcoming trip as As the most sacred ceremony, we do not hesitate to provide this refuge for all travelers before departure.

Originally, this was just an ordinary tavern. Mercenaries from far and wide gathered here again. Travelers who were about to leave also regarded this place as their last stop. The two parties met here, negotiated, ate, and organized for the upcoming start. Making final preparations for the journey.

However, there is no chaos in the world. If there are too many mercenaries, chaos will form.

This sentence was originally a slanderous message sent by the neighboring countries that were defeated by the mercenaries because they were unwilling to fail. However, something even the creator himself did not expect happened. Well, the mercenaries quite liked hearing it. , they happily spread this sentence more and more widely.The mercenaries don't care, not at all. To them, this is not a slander, but a boast.

Sitting in the tavern represents safety, enjoyment, and carnival. However, once leaving the tavern, it means leaving the city and entering the dangerous wilderness, which means fighting, bloodshed, and cruel death.

There is only a wall between life and death. Not only mercenaries, but everyone sitting in the tree hole and donkey's ear knows in their heart that even if they are protected by mercenaries, entering the wilderness is a gamble. Everyone may die. We can no longer return to a safe city. Faced with such a situation, what reason is there not to indulge and laugh to our heart's content?
"Oh, oh, oh, oh oh oh." The cheers went from slow to fast, and became more and more urgent. With a bang, one arm was pressed on the table by the other. Rising red, the winner raised his arms and let out a deafening howl, beating his open chest.

The audience burst into thunderous cheers, and they were even more excited than they were when they won. Large swaths of drinks were splashed into the air amid the cheers. Several women in cool clothes screamed and rushed forward, caressing them with forgetfulness. Touching the winner's solid chest muscles, one even quickly licked the chest, and then let out a high-pitched laugh like a nymphomaniac.

"Tut tsk tsk, it's really lively." Touching his chest submissively, the tallest one among the five guests who broke into the tavern—of course, that was Xiuer—said regretfully, "It's so immoral. It’s too immoral, we should grab them, reprimand them in a secret room, and use the love of the Lord to influence them.”

There is no doubt that the comments with obviously impure intentions only received a blank stare. Although the new priest Talina was no longer young, she still couldn't stand it, so she could only lower her head and keep drawing circles on her chest. , praying to the almighty Lord of the Dark Moon to punish these shameless sinners.But the great Lady Lisa has already seen a lot. What does this little scene mean?The girl kept holding Xiure's arm and nodded frequently with a bright smile on her face, which seemed to make it clear that her brother was right in everything.

Naturally, the two children following Talina would not give Seul any good comments. They looked at Seul with disdain without concealing it. However, this young man named Eddie, can you tell me, How do you manage to despise me and keep peeking at the big sister’s thighs over there?
"I'm not, I didn't, shut up." How could the little boy be a match for someone like Xiure? The boy's skin was red all over, and he was holding his head in the eyes of his companion Sophie who seemed to understand. It is estimated that he is now You must be doubting life. I like what I hear and see. I really like what I hear and see.

"Everyone, please be careful." Shuer blocked his ears and took out a copper basin from his backpack. Although it is difficult to understand why a priest would put such a strange thing as a copper basin in his backpack, but After all, there is no doctrine that stipulates that priests are not allowed to do this, so no matter how strange it is, others cannot interfere.

A copper basin and a hammer, without a doubt, equal a harsh noise.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom", it was like beating a gong, startling the drinkers around.Well, only those around me. The tavern was so busy that people a little further away couldn't even hear the gong.

"Is the person from the Dark Mercenary Group there? Come out quickly. If you don't come out, the client will leave." Accompanied by the sound of broken gongs, Shuer shouted loudly, "Is the contact person from the Dark Mercenary Group there? No, the contact person of the Duck Mercenary Group, please come out quickly."

"Sir, although I really don't want to conflict with my employer, but... can you correct the pronunciation of our mercenary group?"

This time it was the turn of several priests to be startled. Just now, they were surrounded by passers-by, and suddenly a person jumped out and spoke to them. Except for people like Xiuer who had been mentally prepared, anyone else would have been shocked. Be shocked.

Fortunately, this voice is relatively normal, a woman's voice, a very serious and orthodox woman's voice.

Turning around, even the two children couldn't help admiring and admiring in their hearts.

The woman who suddenly appeared was not beautiful, but she had excellent visual effects. She had long curly chestnut hair, bronze skin, dark blue eyes, strong muscles, and a toned figure, especially her two slender legs. She looked explosive. The power is full of dangerous temptation.In comparison, any flaws in appearance have long been ignored.

"Who is Ms. Lisa?" The woman's voice was calm, "I am the liaison person of the Dark Mercenary Group."
