"Let's go? This is my tavern, why should I go?" The tavern owner just continued to wipe his wine glass that seemed to never be wiped clean, his expression was indifferent, completely no longer the flattery of yesterday.
"On the other hand, you two, it would have been better if you left earlier last night, but it's too late now."
As soon as the words fell, the sound of neatly lined footsteps came from outside the tavern. Amid the friction and collision of armored weapons, a thick bass began to shout to the inside.
"Listen, people inside, you're surrounded..."
However, Su Chen and W, who seemed to be in a tight siege, didn't feel any nervousness at all.
"It's quite early. It seems that Tracy's men are quite capable? But, how did they confirm that you are here so quickly? The mission information of your Tower of Babel has been leaked?"
"The news leaked? No, the task was assigned by that guy himself, and I have always been a loner, so how could it be so easy for them to catch my whereabouts?"
The main reason why W appeared at the back of the main battlefield instead of participating with other operators was that the doctor assigned her a task - to intercept and kill the mercenary group drawn by Tracys' side, and to find ways to reduce The possibility of them going to support the battlefield.
As a former Sarkaz mercenary, she is not too familiar with the behavior patterns of other colleagues, even with her eyes closed, she can guess the follow-up actions of those people.
In addition, this task is not just for W to complete alone. In addition to some operators who are responsible for doing black work, those mercenary groups that have signed strategic contracts with the [Tower of Babel] must also cooperate. For example, a certain The [Cardinal Mercenary Corps] led by Hedley, where the explosive madman once stayed.
By the way, a certain Miss Heichangzhi Sarkaz who has been "falling in love and killing each other" with her is also in this mercenary group.
That's right!It was the Ines who evaluated the doctor as "The Evil Spirit of the Tower of Babel" and publicized his name. No matter how you look at it, this young lady is very courageous.
In fact, when Su Chen met W, she had already completed her mission and was cleaning up the last remaining fish that slipped through the net.
Except for the six unlucky ones who didn't run away in the end, she had set off all the other targets with an extremely splendid "firework".
Chapter 11, The Survival of Little People (2.0)
The serious-looking Centurion Sarkaz received a message from his subordinates last night.
It is said that someone saw the legendary [Mad Dog of Babel]——W in old Paul's tavern. The other party appeared here for some reason, and brought another man to stay with him.
Davis knew that old Paul. It might be better to say that the town is only this big. He has been stationed here for a while, so he naturally knows that the other party is just an ordinary little man.
The old Paul didn't know when he opened a tavern, and he usually paid his taxes in a stable manner, with no defaults.
While not as popular as some of the other "nice places", it also provides a rare bragging spot for the idle slackers in town who don't have much money.
This time Davis was able to receive the news so early, precisely because he had already bought all the low-class people in the town, and paid money with one hand and gave news with the other. The cooperation was very pleasant.
This is because the veterans who were promoted from the bottom by Tracys never thought there was anything wrong with places like taverns after they made contributions on the battlefield.
On the contrary, it is in these dark and damp underground corners that all kinds of news that cannot be spread on the bright side often become extremely well-informed. After all, small people also have ways of survival for small people.
Davis did not immediately launch an attack after receiving the news. After careful verification by many parties, he finally came to a more accurate conclusion-the opponent is indeed the long-known [Mad Dog of Babel] , This time it is indeed only two people walking together.
So he resolutely seized the opportunity, and in the early hours of the morning, he began to continuously deploy troops to surround Old Paul's tavern, intending to directly arrest the two Babel operators and torture them.
Under the cover of night, everything went very smoothly, and the other party didn't seem to notice them at all.
But when shouting inside, Davis always felt a little uneasy, as if something had been forgotten by him.
As a former mercenary, W has always used brutal and efficient combat methods to annihilate the enemy on the battlefield. Almost everything he passed was filled with flames and explosions, as well as stumps and broken arms all over the ground.
The level of madness and horror can only be understood by those who have actually met her face to face, but unfortunately, there are too few such people.
Because most of her enemies have already died!
Davis, who is extremely experienced in combat, took this seriously with the attitude of "I would rather believe what I have than believe what I don't have". Therefore, this time I brought almost all the elites under my command.
Frontal attacking swordsmen, piercers, great swordsmen, long-range attacking snipers, dozens of heavy crossbows and modified firearms, plus a specially formed team of Sarkaz magicians, and his experienced Sarkaz centurion fighting.
'One hundred to two, the advantage is mine! '(A captain of the transportation brigade liked this.jpg)
After thinking about it carefully, and confirming that there was no problem with his arrangement, Davis gradually let go of the inexplicable worries in his heart, and narrowed his eyes looking at the tavern that still had no response.
"It seems that you already know the boss? Then why don't you run away?"
Su Chen glanced around, and the entire tavern was empty at the moment, and those alcoholics who had already started to drink alcoholic drinks all fled far away today, without the lively atmosphere of the past at all.
"As I said, this is my tavern. Do you want me to leave? Unless I die." When he was speaking, the old Paul put down the wine glass in his hand that seemed to never be wiped clean, and his expression suddenly became a little hideous.
Accompanied by his action, the philistine and shrewdness when we first met yesterday, and the flattery and flattery when he knocked on the door later seemed to have faded away, and those eyes that were originally weak were gradually filled with knife light and blood. full, just like——
Su Chen glanced at W beside her. She was also observing the tavern owner in front of her with great interest, as if she was looking at her own kind.
——Same as the former mercenary beside him!
"Oh, it looks like a colleague who chooses to live in seclusion after getting tired of fighting, just a little too stupid." The white-haired Sarkaz girl withdrew her gaze, and suddenly became a little less interested.
Like the other party, W has seen a lot of them when he was in the Cardinal Mercenary Corps, and most of them chose to put down their sabers and leave the industry for the same reason.
But those guys are much smarter than this idiot in front of me, Longmen, Letania, Victoria, Columbia...
Although infected people are not welcome anywhere, compared to the current war-torn Kazdel, choosing to live in seclusion in other places where the situation is relatively stable is not much better.
That's why she said that the other party was "too stupid" and wouldn't even choose a better place to open a tavern.
The tavern owner, no, he should be called Old Paul now, because judging from the current situation, his tavern will definitely be lost later.
"...Yeah, he is obviously a mercenary who takes his life for a living, but he naively wants to give up everything and escape from the battlefield and live a peaceful life."
"It's hard to open a tavern, but after only a few years of opening, I have already forgotten what kind of world Kazdel is now, thinking that the so-called 'peaceful life' can be exchanged for the so-called 'peaceful life' with daily patience and concessions, but in the end I found that I was actually still that Little people on the battlefield can't escape at all."
The middle-aged Sarkaz man clenched his fists and looked complicated. Obviously, he was also a person with a story in the past.
"Really, it's stupid enough." After making a definition for himself with a sneer on his face, the old Paul looked at Su Chen, probably because he had already discovered that he was the one who made the decision.
"In any case, when that guy Davis chose to try his best to destroy this tavern and catch you, we were already in the same group. If this is the case, should we join forces to break through?"
While speaking, the skin of his whole body began to undergo a strange change—the color of iron rust gradually spread upward from the fingertips, covering his whole body like some kind of living thing.
"As you can see, my origin stone skill is [Iron Skin], a defensive spell that manipulates the iron element in my body and covers it on the surface of my skin. Although the effect is simple, it allows me to act as A qualified front reload."
The old Paul, who has completely turned into a "tin woodman", explained the changes in himself in a low voice, obviously he had been prepared for a long time.
"...Surprised, Jieweiling?!"
"Youth Deteriorated Version of Jeston (Convinced)"
"Jeston: First of all, I didn't offend any of you!"
"Looking around the prison is invincible, looking back at the clown myself.jpg"
"..."
At this moment, the expression on Su Chen's face became exactly the same as those of the doctors in the barrage, which was extremely strange.
It’s like seeing a dishonest and pretentious boss monster who is obviously difficult to kill but is comparable to an elite monster. In the plot, he was directly defeated by [Rhine King of Fighters · Serea] The embarrassing boss "Jeston" Williams".
It's just that compared to that guy's powerful origin stone skills that can be used for long-range and close-combat, the former mercenary old Paul, who has retired for a long time, is much weaker, and can only cover himself as armor.
"Actually, it's not as troublesome as you said." Su Chen glanced at W who seemed to have no worries at all and didn't plan to make a move, and spread his hands.
While the three inside were discussing breaking out, Davis and his party outside had completely lost their patience. Of course, this may also be due to the fact that the surrounding residents have been dispersed.
Even though those people knew old Paul, the tavern owner, and even had a good relationship with them, they still chose to leave silently when faced with the shining sword.
resist?Although they are all infected with Originium disease and have their own Originium skills, the gap between professionally trained fighters and ordinary civilians may sometimes be greater than the gap between humans and dogs.
What's more, although the infected can "cast spells without a stick", it is at the cost of accelerating the infection, in other words, "krypton life".
No Sarkaz would pay so much for a stranger they just knew, not only killing their lives but fighting the local ruling class.
Being wise and protecting one's life is the way of survival of the little people.

Chapter 12, Ms. W, who has regained her enthusiasm (2.0)
"Start the attack!" Davis, who had made all the preparations, directly issued an attack order.
Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh! …
The raindrops of metal crossbow bolts mixed with dozens of low-quality etching bullets rushed towards the tavern, which was only a mixture of wood and masonry. The walls that were so fragile that they could not protect the people inside.
However, after a round of covering shots, there was no cry of pain from inside, and there was not even a hint of a sense of response after the hit.
"Continue! Don't stop!" Eyes full of fierce light narrowed slowly, and the hidden worries in Davis' heart that had not disappeared from the beginning to the end seemed to be gradually expanding, covering his face full of scars shadow.
But in the tavern at this time, it was a completely different scene.
The transparent energy barrier composed of countless hexagons centered on the bar, enveloping the three of Su Chen in it. The arrows and bullets flying from the outside hit the barrier, but it only caused a little ripple.
Even with the special etching bullets fired from modified guns, the bursting flames and fluctuations can only make the [Psychic Barrier] shake undetectably for a moment, and it will return to its original state after a while.
W, who seemed to have guessed this scene a long time ago, seemed to be sitting on the edge of the bar very leisurely, and even raised a beautiful black silk leg and swayed slowly.
But the hand that has never moved on the waist from beginning to end, and the eyes that have been staring at Su Chen and old Paul show that she has never let down her vigilance.
"Well, this origin stone skill, I would like to ask, do you know a black-robed doctor named Shining?"
Looking at the strange shield surrounding them, the middle-aged Sarkaz man suddenly opened his eyes wide, and the expression on his face became a little strange, as if he saw something he had seen before. (Second skill [Automatic Cover])
As a mercenary, it is a routine operation to fight in the wilderness for various missions, and this extremely dangerous way of survival will naturally bring endless pain.
Old Paul still can't forget the slender helping hand extended to him when he was dying in the battle that almost killed him in the first half of his life.
Emergency treatment, heal the pain, stop the bleeding and heal. At that moment, he even suddenly felt that he saw a black goddess! (Black and white demons save lives and heal the wounded.jpg)
Even if he was able to leave the battlefield alive in the end, and came to this remote town to open a tavern, to some extent, he had to rely on the extremely kind Sarkaz travel doctor.
Su Chen: ... Huh? !
"Shining? You're not talking about a Sarkaz woman with white horns, wearing a black robe, holding a sword-shaped staff, walking in the wilderness and saving lives?"
"Yes, no wonder your origin stone spell looks so similar to that lady's. So you really know each other."
The two men, who had never met before, looked at each other in blank dismay, obviously not expecting such a connection between them.
In fact, Su Chen has never encountered the "Pleasant Goat" at this point in time. The characteristics he just mentioned are completely based on his memory, the six-star medical operator on [Rhode Island] in the future "" The appearance of "The Shining" is described.
Judging from the time, the current Shining should be in the period of rebelling against [Absolution Master] and constantly wandering in Kazdel.
Maybe she has already met Nightingale, but the other [Yao Knight] Linguang in the trio is probably still staying in Casimir at the moment, not wandering around because of the so-called "Original Stone Infection", until finally joining 【apostle】.
"No, to be precise, my ability has nothing to do with her, and although I know that doctor, he doesn't know me at all, at least not at this point in time."
After shaking his head, Su Chen still decided to put this matter aside for the time being. Compared with the Shining doctor who seems to be related to him, they still have more important things to do right now.
"Anyway, let's talk about other things after I get rid of the group of guys outside first." He stretched out his hand while speaking.
The golden spiritual energy visible to the naked eye and the ubiquitous origin stone energy in the air resonated in a certain way. Under the double suppression of [spiritual control] and [energy surge], the so-called "origin stone skill" for him, It's just some simple spells that come at your fingertips.
Although the current Su Chen is still unable to achieve the point of "earth, wind, water and fire, all listen to my orders", but due to the particularity of the Terra world, he can easily fill his [ Elemental spells], and released in a way similar to origin stone spells.
In the blink of an eye, a violent tornado suddenly blew up in the dilapidated tavern, and there were countless small and sharp boulders in the middle.
The blue and white stars condense out of thin air, dance with the wind, and are extremely beautiful under the morning light.
However, the [Dance of Fine Snow], which was supposed to wreak havoc on the snowfields in the north, seems to be imprisoned in the small confined space around by an invisible big hand at this moment, even the well-informed W and old Paul can't help but watch A little terrified.
In case one of the casters didn't control it well, what would he do? The other two people present were probably going to die.
After all, at such a short distance, once this terrifying large-scale "Origin Stone Spell" explodes out of control, they have no place to hide.
Just when Davis outside commanded his Sarkaz soldiers to form a surprise attack and planned to attack directly, the "Song of Ice and Fire" that had been prepared for them also suddenly rang out.
Among the three lines of sight with varying emotions, a group of heavily armored defensive fighters headed by holding a large shield rushed into the tavern in an extremely stable formation.
But at this moment, in the suddenly rising twisted airflow, a circle of bursting flames appeared outside the transparent barrier, and then exploded with a bang.
boom! ! !
The deflagrating red flames and the released ice and snow tornado coerced each other, the terrifying high temperature and the extreme low temperature alternated back and forth, and the howling wind even gave this "ice and fire" treatment to everyone present. one extra.
In just a moment, the original location of the tavern was turned into ruins, and the surviving wine table also showed two traces of burning flames and freezing ice.
"Ahem!" Davis sat up from the ground with difficulty, and the face that had looked extremely hideous due to the scars in the past was now full of confusion.
On the ruins, the Sarkaz elites he brought over were already lying on the ground, and the snipers and magicians staying behind were fine, except for a few who lost consciousness due to evading in time, most of them were dead. At least one full body remains.
But those vanguards and heavy equipment who rushed to the front were completely annihilated at this moment, especially those who had already rushed into the tavern, almost all of them were dead.
"Huh? There's still one alive here? It looks like it's still an officer. Do you know W?"
"Tch! Are you kidding me? You're just a centurion, and I'm not qualified to know him yet."
"I know him, the supreme commander of the garrison in this small town——Davis, he is actually a pretty good guy, it's a pity."
