"How did you know?" The cricket bee calmed down and waved the cylindrical mechanism box in his hand. He had only seen the ability to find the way to crack the mechanism box by external observation from the Brahman Snake. The other people in the special forces had tried this before, but none of them had succeeded.
Cricket Bee's eyes flickered under his long hat. He carefully sized up the guy in front of him. He did not have any items that could represent his identity, but from the wounds he saw on the streets of the City of Qi yesterday, he was probably a mercenary. In this day and age, it was really hard to live peacefully without brains and connections.
The ambitions of the Dragon Mountain Empire were obvious to all. Barok and the Dragon Mountain Empire bordered each other, so there were naturally many wars. Because the military power had been divided by the upper echelons, Barok's army was now a pool of stagnant water. Not to mention their strength, the simple equipment they were given could not be compared to the knights. Without some policy support and benefits, who would be willing to serve the upper class nobles? Because of this, mercenaries had developed in Baroque. Not to mention how much they earned, the simple freedom and the remuneration of being hired by merchants were far superior to those of the lower ranks of the army. More importantly, they didn't have to wade into the deep waters of politics.
When the merchant saw Barker handed over by the cricket bee, his eyes instantly lit up. He immediately took it and squeezed out four words with slightly trembling lips: "Thank you for your patronage." Then, he quickly found a Buck for the cricket bee. He thought that after the cricket bees knew the solution, they would no longer be interested in this mechanism box. After all, the people who bought this kind of thing were after mystery and luck. After knowing the solution, the mechanism box would no longer have any novelty. In the end, this was just a big wooden box.
"I'm fine." The cricket bee looked at Shang clan's stiff expression and could not help but find it funny. He grabbed the mechanism box in his hand and turned around to look at the scarred man.
"Are you a mercenary?" Cricket Bee asked. Although he already had what he thought was an accurate guess, he couldn't help but want to confirm it. Without Thunder Wolf, there was no need for him to be so restrained.
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment. He leaned over and asked in confusion,"Why would you think that?"
"Hmm? Aren't you?" When the cricket bee heard the other party's words, it could not help but widen its eyes. From his tone, it seemed that he was very puzzled by his guess. Could it be that he had guessed wrongly?
" No…" The uncle smiled shyly and scratched the back of his head. The scar on his face shook with his smile, making him look very ferocious. The cricket bee looked at the hideous scar and frowned."You really can't judge a book by its cover."
"Previously, the merchant group asked me if I was a mercenary. Could it be that I'm a mercenary because I'm a little ugly?”He touched the long scar on his face that could not be erased and muttered to himself. A trace of indescribable sadness flashed across his eyes that were buried in the shadows.
"No, it's just that scars are the standard for most soldiers on the battlefield. You're outside, so it's easy for others to mistake you for a mercenary.”Seeing this, the cricket bee immediately advised. At the same time, he could not help but mutter in his heart, This guy was a little silly, and he was right about that.
"Hehe, is that so? As expected, it's still a matter of appearance?" The simple-minded uncle laughed, as if he didn't care.
"Yes." The cricket bee smiled bitterly and said,"But not all mercenaries have scars on their faces, like me. As expected, being good-looking was also a kind of talent.”
"Alright!" The simple-minded uncle raised his right hand and shouted in the direction of the sound. Then, he spread his hands apologetically to the cricket bee in front of him."I'm sorry, I have to go to work. Otherwise, it won't be easy to explain.”
The cricket bee looked at his face that was full of murderous intent and his honest smile. It really didn't feel out of place. Thank you for telling me the solution to the trap box.”The cricket glanced at the mechanism box in its hand, pressed it a few times, and thanked him.
"It's a small matter." The middle-aged man smiled as he finished speaking. Then, he turned around and ran in the direction of the shout.
The cricket bee watched him leave, and a trace of doubt appeared on its face. For some reason, it felt that his back was extremely similar to someone.
"You're worrying too much." The cricket bee laughed softly and shook the box in its hand. A series of clanging sounds came from the box. If he was not wrong, it should be a child's toy similar to marbles. Since that was the case, he would bring it to that little fellow. The cricket bees lifted their feet and walked towards their caravan without further delay.
Time passed quickly, and the clouds in the sky changed. The sun was still warm, and a breeze began to blow. In the carriage, Yin Yu, who was still considering the compilation in his hand, slowly raised his head. At this moment, Thunder Wolf was already half-asleep on the saddle. To them, no matter where they were, they could sleep, whether it was for their own sleep or to guard against the war that might happen at any time. From time to time, laughter could be heard coming from the carriage behind him. It was from the child and the Nether Tortoise, but not from Brahman Snake.
After fighting alongside him for so long, it seemed like he had never laughed before…Yin Yu couldn't help but exclaim in her heart as she listened to his laughter. However, it wasn't surprising that there were several people in the special forces camp who didn't like to laugh like Fan She. Those who did not like to laugh must have had unimaginable experiences in the past.
Just as the Yin Fish was murmuring, a short sword flew out of nowhere, silently cutting through the air and attacking the Yin Fish. The Yin Fish sensed the danger, but it didn't make any big movements. It just turned its body to the side and grabbed the short sword in the air. The short sword magically appeared in its hand. It didn't get up, but sat upright. After taking the short sword, the Yin Fish quickly got up, but it didn't attack again.
Looking at the strangely-shaped dagger in his hand, the cricket bee's expression changed drastically." What is he doing here?"
