Quantum Godhead

() Freeman, the owner of the Yorktown Hotel, is in an extremely bad mood right now. He looks at the broken tables and chairs scattered on the ground and frowns in silence, but the tense confrontation between the two fighting parties makes him dare not say much.

After running the hotel for decades, he actually looked down on the adventurers who would fight if they disagreed.Still struggling to make ends meet but bragging about being a dragon-slaying hero.

"The sheriff's indecisive bastard!" Freeman cursed fiercely in his heart.

Yorktown is at the crossroads of the Oasis Trail, near the southern border of the Empire.After the battle with Odin, the trade routes to the east of the empire were almost paralyzed.Trade goods can only flow in from the United States of Commerce by detour, and the Oasis Trail is one of the main routes, making the already prosperous town even more prosperous.

The empire has rebuilt the garrison fortress in the southern Gale Canyon, controlled most of the main routes, and severely cracked down on the smuggling activities of some nobles colluding inside and outside.However, the fortress has no good means of blocking the vast wall of wind and sand.And the Empire saw little need to block that place.

The Wall of Wind and Sand is a forest of thorns, which is covered by layers of desert thorn trees, a specialty plant of the Quicksand Empire. Some thorn trees can grow to a height of more than 40 meters, and their roots can reach nearly [-] meters underground. This forest It extends from the southeast of the Wind Canyon to the territory of the Odin Empire, effectively preventing the wind and sand from the northwest from spreading to the east and south.

The wood of the desert thorn tree is sparse and porous, but extremely tough, and a lot of sap is stored in the holes, which are poisonous and volatile.A thorn tree can suffocate people even if it lights a fire, so it can be said to be worthless.

Its leaves are sharp thorns with tubes connecting them to holes in the trunk.If it is accidentally stabbed, the cuticle at the tip will fall off immediately, and the venom in the hole will volatilize into the body.In fact, it is not a big problem for ordinary people to be stabbed a few times, but it is very difficult to go through a large forest of thorns.Only some dangerous creatures in the desert like this kind of place.

This windbreak forest is also a natural barrier for the empire. The Wind Fortress only needs to regularly send desert giant eagle knights to patrol the sky above the forest to prevent smuggling by air.Since the means of transportation could not pass through the thorn forest, the empire didn't bother to control those individual smuggling activities.

The garrison army has stocked a large number of poisonous sand lizards in the thorn forest, specially dealing with those who use space equipment to smuggle valuables.Those expensive space equipment generally only have a cabinet-sized interior space, and the things that can be carried are limited no matter how expensive they are.

The Oasis Trail runs southwest along the edge of the Sandwall for quite a while before entering the Merchant United States through Windy Canyon.As a result smugglers traveling through the forest often took this route, and these people caused a large number of security problems in Yorktown.

The sheriff of the small town was also a member of the adventurers in the past. After successfully activating the blood, he found a stable job and no longer lived a dangerous life without security.Over the years, he has been steadily promoted to the third level, but he still hasn't forgotten the bloody and tearful career during the adventure.Knowing the hardships involved, he is more tolerant to the adventurers, as long as they don't cause death, it's fine to punish them casually.

"Golason, you haven't activated your bloodline yet?" An elven woman in tight leather armor put her feet on the broken table, casually holding a crossbow gun in her right hand and pointing at her. It is a piece of magical equipment.She was actually quite beautiful, and elves are not ugly.It's just that she doesn't have the quiet and elegant temperament of the elves at all. There is an obvious scar on her left cheek, and a little bit of the pointed ear on the left has been cut off.

"That's enough to keep you from getting up in bed, Sally, you're so sweet..." A sand dwarf with a tangled beard laughed loudly, and licked his lips as he said it, as if he had tasted Same.The hometown of the sand dwarves is in the windy and sandy land where human footprints are seldom, bordering on the northwest border of the Kinky Rock Kingdom.They also believe in the king of quicksand.

"You can try..." the female elf Sally straightened her slender waist ambiguously, and stroked her lower body with her left hand as she spoke, and everyone around her was used to it.It seems that with long-term contact with humans, even elves will become vulgar.

In the corner sat a table of people in sand-proof burqas, and they had been staring quietly at the venue.

Freeman turned his head and glanced at the people at the table, then looked away.This dispute was caused by those people. They found a corner and sat down as soon as they entered the hotel, and they kept gesturing on the table.Then ask to hire a team of guides to take them into the wall of wind and sand.They said they wanted to hunt a special kind of sand scorpion... Not only did they offer a high price of one hundred gold coins, but they also dumped the gold coins on the table on the spot.The temptation of Jin Glitter made the adventurers immediately start to compete, and the ones who are still standing in the arena are all ruthless characters.

According to his rich experience, that group of people is very likely to be smugglers.But he didn't dare to make extravagances, this kind of people were more dangerous than adventurers.Smuggling is none of his business, so there's no need to get into trouble.

A young man with the hood of his dust smock off stood up. He had dark chestnut hair and was handsome, if a little thin.He walked towards Sally slowly, hugged her from behind, and kept rubbing her chest with his left hand. "You are charming... ma'am. Your party may be best suited as guides."

The female elf Sally raised her head slightly, and opened her mouth slightly, obviously enjoying this movement.

"Sir, if you only want to find prostitutes, there is no need to spend a hundred gold coins." The sand dwarf Gorazon said in a low voice. "I'm very familiar with the Wind and Sand Wall, and I often hunt some wild beasts in it. If you don't want to go through the forest, I can guarantee your safety."

Hearing these words, Sally didn't even lower her head. She pulled the trigger with her right hand, and the green arrow shot towards Gorazon's head with the power of her blood.

"Blood of the Wind Rider!" Gorazon didn't have time to react, he could only watch the arrow shoot towards him rapidly.Although he knew that Sally had become an official bloodline shooter, he had never seen her ability with his own eyes. In his opinion, it was at most the common Hawkeye.Just when the arrow was about to touch his forehead, a huge palm stopped in front of Gorazon. With a puff, the arrow pierced through the palm hard, and slid through the bones, making a teeth-stinging friction sound. Then gradually stopped.

Gorazon took a few steps back in shock, with a look of fear in his eyes... He murmured, "The power of the wind?"

The wind rider is the bloodline of the elite shooters of the elf empire, but it appeared on an adventurer.Why would you be an adventurer if you have this kind of ability...... Going directly to participate in the selection of the garrison officer of the Elven Empire is many times better than living a life of wandering.

The elven bloodline family has no bad habits of adultery. They have always followed the ancient and conservative marriage customs, so their bloodlines are scattered, and the difficulty of activation is much greater than that of humans.Fortunately, elves live much longer than humans, and the combat power accumulated from this is also very impressive.

And due to the dispersion and cross-combination of blood vessels, various mutated blood vessels have been produced. Some of the abilities attached to the blood vessels are useless, while others are very powerful.Therefore, there are often members of various bloodlines in the elves' bloodline family.

And the members of the human bloodline family are all highly pure single bloodlines, but different people show different abilities in the same bloodline.This can also show the huge difference in the concepts of the two races. It is easy for human beings to do whatever they can for the sake of power, and they have no pressure on the nobles of human blood.But for the elves, this kind of behavior is absolutely unacceptable, and they would rather give up the purification of the blood and maintain the tradition.

"Wind Rider" is a brand-new bloodline produced during the process of bloodline intermingling. Its several abilities are very powerful, and any one of them can be activated to become an excellent bloodline shooter.

What Sally activated was the power of the blast, which was second only to the blasting ability in the "Wind Rider" bloodline.The power of this ability is that not only will the air resistance not become an obstacle to shooting, but it can also be converted into the power of the arrow several times or even dozens of times.

Those middle-level bloodline shooters with blast power have no ballistic arrows at all, and high-level shooters can turn rapidly in the air at will. These shooters are undoubtedly terrifying snipers on the battlefield.

The hotel seemed to be silent for a few seconds...... Even the hand of the young man stroking Sally's chest was stiff. Except for the members of Sally's team, everyone else in the hotel felt a sense of absurdity ——If you have this ability, you still need to take risks?

They looked at Sally with complicated eyes, this female elf who always brags and jokes with them... Now she has become a bloodline shooter with unlimited potential.

"No matter how you look at it, I will satisfy you..." The elf leaned back towards the young man's shoulder, turned her head and whispered into his ear.

"My name is Kido, and I'm your employer now." The young man moved his hands away from Sally's chest in embarrassment, and looked towards Gorazon.Next to the sand dwarf stood a one-eyed ogre, and now the ogre was pulling out the arrow embedded in his palm, as if he didn't know the pain.

"Help Arua!" The sand dwarf, who came back to his senses, ordered behind him, and a burly man immediately pulled out a knife, and began to pry the arrow out for the ogre with great effort.

Gorazon was very grateful. Although he didn't activate the bloodline, he picked up an ogre cub during his adventure.After raising it for a period of time, I found that its body is extremely tough, and most first-level professionals are not easy to cause damage to it.With this ogre, he was able to steal business from competitors time and time again.But today is obviously not going to work, he can't guarantee that Sally's next arrow can stop the ogre in time.

"Where's your companion, charming lady?" asked Guido, who was a little calmer now.Sally then pointed to a few people on the left and introduced them to Guido one by one.

"Including you are four ladies and one gentleman." Kido nodded lightly.

Then he looked at Gorazon, took out another bag, and poured out the gold coins inside.Gorazon's eyes were straightened, and he swallowed subconsciously.Guido's casual voice came from next to his ear: "I am going to hire you at the same time, Gorazon, where is your companion?"

Gorazon waved his hand back expectantly: "They are all!"

"Four men, one woman, uh, if that ogre is a woman..." Kido sniffled, apparently not being so polite to Gorazon.

Then he glanced at the table of burqa men in the corner seemingly unintentionally, and one of them shook his head insignificantly...

"Golasson, I will give you one thing first, find a young, beautiful and energetic prostitute, and ask for a young one! We don't want to be too lonely when hunting." Kido continued.

Gorazon nodded in doubt. The four women in Sally's adventure team are all part-time prostitutes, and they are pretty, so why do you need another one?Sally alone can handle them all.But it wasn't his money, and he didn't bother to ask.

Kido took out two agreements for them to sign separately, and then went to the town's council hall to notarize and record.If the notarized agreement is violated, double compensation must be paid, otherwise it will be wanted by the empire.After signing the agreement, both Sally and Grason felt relieved, and the faint worries in their hearts were completely eliminated.If these people were really smugglers, they would definitely not dare to go to the notary. The notary office has most of the wanted information of smugglers.

I saw the adventurers signing the agreement and discussing the departure time and various details.Freeman was in a terrible mood. They were legally hired, and if he reported it to the sheriff now, he would undoubtedly get into big trouble.No matter how legal and reasonable the procedures of the group of burqa people were, he vaguely felt that those people were dangerous.As for the loss, I can only bear it myself...

After the guests returned to their rooms to rest, Freeman cursed and began to clean the main hall of the hotel.Cursing the sheriff's incompetence as he cleaned, he would have cursed even those men if it weren't for the spooky burqa men still upstairs.

He had just finished tidying up the broken tables and chairs when he saw a gold coin handed to him.Freeman looked up in astonishment, and found a young man with black hair and black eyes looking at him with a smile on his lips.The young man, with his monocle on a gold chain and the dust-coat that was popular among the high society of the Empire, looked like a scholar or a businessman.

Freeman has an impression of this young man. He arrived at the hotel early this morning, and has been resting on the bench in the corner with his eyes closed ever since.

"Hello, sir, the hotel needs to be repaired. If you want to stay overnight, please wait for a while before going through the formalities." He didn't dare to neglect, the temperament of the other party didn't look like those savage and rude adventurers at all.

"I do want to rest for one night, but I would like to ask a few questions before that." Heras put the gold coin in Freeman's hand and said with a smile.
