Chapter 67: The Hot-Blooded Mercenary Corps

  Little Meteor left with Little Spring, leaving behind the city of Luo Ya where they had stayed for three months. They began their true journey across the continent. Due to his battle with Lao Rui, Little Meteor's desire for combat was stronger than ever before, and he really wanted to encounter a powerful opponent and engage in a fierce battle lasting 300 rounds. Unfortunately, things don't always go as one wishes, and although this continent had many powerful warriors, they were not yet at the level where one could easily stumble upon them by simply walking around.

  After walking for over a dozen days, not a single one was encountered, making Little Meteor feel extremely depressed. As a result, he could only seal away the majority of his cultivation and fight against the magical beasts here. Fortunately, this continent lacked nothing, including magical beasts. Wherever he went, he would encounter 4th-tier or lower magical beasts, and if he was slightly lucky, he might even encounter high-level 6th-tier magical beasts. This was what kept Little Meteor from being depressed to death. Of course, if he wanted to encounter a 7th-tier or 8th-tier sacred beast, it would still require extremely good luck - at least, Little Meteor had yet to encounter any.

  It's not bad, after sealing most of the power, fighting with demons that are stronger than oneself can bring great rewards. It's also very challenging, at first, Xiaoliang was still instinctively releasing his own energy to instantly kill his opponents when he was in danger, but that had no effect at all.

  Later, Xiao Liuxing slowly controlled himself and kept a low-level position, about the level of a 4th-tier human warrior. At first, he had some difficulty with 4th-tier magical beasts, needing hundreds of moves to kill his opponents, and he would also get injured. However, after many battles...

  His combat skills and awareness were rapidly improving, so 4th-tier magical beasts were no longer a challenge for him. He began to seek out 5th-tier, even 6th-tier high-level magical beasts as opponents. Although this was extremely perilous, causing Little Meteor to nearly lose his life several times and making Little Spring cry many times in fear, it also allowed him to grow rapidly. Little Spring had been warned by him not to lend a hand until the very last moment.

  Two months, just two more months, Xiaoliu Xing's combat consciousness and combat experience have made great progress. Xiaoliu Xing believes that if he were to duel with La Ruis now, he would definitely lose! Of course, the premise is that in these two months, he has not made much progress. Xiaoliu Xing trained himself in a way that was almost torturous, although he achieved great success, but he did not let Xia Chun Tian do the same, he couldn't bear to let her suffer like this, even though he knew it was for her own good, he still couldn't bring himself to do it.

  It was just Little Spring who didn't know if she had been infected by Little Meteor or her curiosity had gotten the better of her, but occasionally, she would strongly demand that she seal herself and fight against the demon beasts. Little Meteor couldn't persuade her otherwise, so he could only let her try, at which point he didn't dare to seal himself again, using his full strength, with his divine sense tightly surrounding her, ready to intervene at any moment if something went wrong. Due to being overly tense, several times when Little Spring was just about to deal with the crisis on her own, he would preemptively take action, causing Little Spring to roll her eyes repeatedly.

  Now, the Bright Continent is already in December, and the weather is getting colder and colder. In a blink of an eye, they have been in the human world for half a year. There are still more than ten days before Paul's Day, when humans start to return home and reunite with their families to prepare for the holiday. While the two of them can only spend it together. It's good that there is someone by your side, if you were alone, the loneliness would be enough to drive you crazy.

  Now Little Meteor and Little Spring are both wearing thick fur coats, lighting a fire in the woods, leaning against meat. It's already noon, they're ready to eat.

  They had long since reached the point where they were not affected by temperature, and only to avoid suspicion did they buy such clothes in stores. Xiaochun Tian also particularly liked it, and very early on changed out of her golden silkworm clothing, only wearing that extreme defense-type inner armor inside under Xiaoliu Xing's strong request, just in case.

  The meat is a 5th-level magical beast called Wind Deer that they just killed, this beast can cast intermediate wind magic, and looks similar to the Roe Deer in our world, except its whole body is green, not cute at all. That's why Xia Chun Tian allowed Xiao Liu Xing to kill it for food. Xiao Liu Xing had also killed a few before, the taste was quite good, of course, Xiao Liu Xing hadn't eaten deer meat in his own world, so he can't compare on that aspect.

  For a long time in the forest, Xiaoliu Xing's barbecue seasonings have risen from the initial three to dozens! It can be said that sour, sweet, bitter and spicy, they can eat whatever flavor they want. Now Xiaoliu Xing doesn't even cook by himself, because he found that Xiaochun Tian's cooking skills are better than his. With the same meat and ingredients, she can make it taste better than him.

  Let Xiaoliuxing be impressed. So every time they eat, Xiaoliuxing simply doesn't move his hands and leaves everything to Xiaochuntian, he is only in charge of catching and killing.

  Eating the fragrant roasted venison cooked by Xiaochun Tian, drinking his own brewed strong liquor "Burn Knife", and roasting by the big fire, Xiao Liuxing felt extremely satisfied. "Burn Knife" was brewed by Xiao Liuxing with the materials he collected over the past few days before he left. Its degree is about 55 degrees!

  It was extremely fiery, so the little shooting star directly used its world's most famous fiery liquor to name it. To commemorate its hometown and also because it was too lazy to come up with a name. In Xiaochun Tian's words, the first part is an excuse, while the latter is the real reason.

  About 10 minutes after eating, Xiaoliuxing and Xiaochuntian suddenly stopped at the same time and looked in one direction. Just now, just in the direction they were looking, more than 500 meters away from them, five people entered their spiritual perception range. Although Xiaoliuxing and Xiaochuntian sealed their cultivation a bit, they did not seal their spiritual perception, nor did they know how to seal it.

  In general, small meteorites expand their consciousness by 500 meters to monitor the surrounding situation. Xia Chun Tian also developed this habit under his request. So as soon as those people approached within a range of 500 meters around them, they were immediately discovered by the two of them.

  These five people are all male, two warriors, a magician, an archer and a thief, a standard combination of a small mercenary group. Two warriors, one 6th-level advanced warrior and one 5th-level intermediate warrior. Both warriors wear gray light armor and carry a double-handed great sword on their backs. The sixth-level warrior has green hair, about 40 years old, around 180 cm tall, with an extremely serious face.

  Firm and wise eyes fully showed his master's demeanor, and Xiaoliu saw strength and integrity in his eyes. The eyes are the windows of the soul, and Xiaoliu always had a good impression of good people. The other four people intentionally or unintentionally drew closer to him, indicating that he was the leader of this small team.

  Another warrior of the team was a bit younger than his leader, about 30 years old, with red hair. This person looked extremely wild and tall, about 2 meters high, from his exaggerated movements, Little Meteor knew that this man was more generous and direct, in other words, he might be a bit simple-minded.

  In addition, the magician and the thief were both over 40 years old, while the archer was the youngest, only around 25 years old. These five people are now quickly walking towards him, led by a 6th-level leader. From their occasional swallowing of saliva, Xiaoliu Xing knew that they must have been attracted by the aroma of Xiaochuntian's roasted meat.

  The two of them exchanged a smile, and then ignored them, continuing to eat. However, while eating, Xiaoliu took out the excess deer meat that had been processed and stored in the storage ring. The deer was as big as a calf, and they had only eaten one leg, with the rest reserved for dinner and the next few days. Now that they were here, it was fate, so Xiaoliu brought it out to feed them.

  Within 500 meters, the five of them quickly ran out. Seeing two kids around 4th grade eating barbecue alone, they were stunned at first, but soon they didn't think about it anymore, "Maybe their parents just walked away", and the big piece of barbecue next to Xiaoliu Xing also completely caught their attention.

  "Wow, delicious meat! Little brother, can you give some to your big brother? I'll pay you!" The slightly younger warrior who had been seen by Xiaoliuxing first spoke up and took out a gold coin, shaking it in front of Xiaoliuxing's eyes.

  One gold coin can only buy one small leg of the 5-level Wind Deer meat, and this meat is even smaller than a small spring roast. If you really take it out to buy, one gold coin can only buy half a small leg at most!

  However, in front of the two little stars, he not only didn't bully them but also offered to compensate with gold coins, making Little Flowstar still quite satisfied with his character. Moreover, he had taken out the meat for them to eat in the first place, so he didn't care about the gold coins in that person's hand and just nodded slightly in agreement.

  The leader was about to scold the warrior for his recklessness, but before he could say a word, Xiaoliu Xing nodded in agreement. Seeing that Xiaoliu Xing and Xiao Chun Tian were both dressed extremely well, they thought of them as nobles and assumed that Xiaoliu Xing had the same noble pride as others. "We've met two kind-hearted young nobles," everyone thought to themselves.

  "Then I won't be polite, my name is Glarey, if you need anything in the future, just come to the Mercenary Guild and look for me, haha!" The warrior who spoke first walked towards the deer meat on the ground, laughing as he went. "Young master, young miss, we are from the Hot Blooded Mercenary Team, my name is Roman, everyone likes me, so they made me the team leader, Glarey that kid has always been like this, don't mind him." The 6th level warrior saw how rude Glarey was and quickly came to Little Flowing Star's side, apologetically saying.

  "Don't be so polite" Little Liuxing replied lightly, then continued eating his meat. Only the little Spring beside them was very curious, this was their first time running into a mercenary group outside after all. "Uncle, you guys are a mercenary group? What are you doing here? Are you here to complete a mission? What kind of mission is it? My brother and I are also mercenaries, hehe" Little Spring asked several questions while gnawing on the meat in his hand, looking at the leader of the mercenary group with curious eyes.

  Roman, who was initially taken aback by the coldness of Little Meteor, was immediately captivated by the cuteness of Little Spring. While sneaking glances at Little Meteor with curious eyes, he smiled and replied to Little Spring: "Oh, so you're also mercenaries? Sorry about that, haha! We didn't come here for a quest, but specifically to hunt magical beasts for money. Now we're preparing to head home, haha!"

  Normally, people wouldn't easily reveal their information to outsiders, but Xiao Chun Tian was just too cute, and he couldn't help but tell the truth. "This is our archer Parka, that's our fire mage Huo Meng, and the last one is our Na Hou." After introducing them, Roman also introduced other members of their team.

  At this time, Gela had already taken the meat to be grilled and cut it into several pieces, bringing them in front of everyone. Since the host had agreed, they didn't stand on ceremony, and everyone picked up a piece to eat. "It's so delicious, this is the best meat I've ever had, it's really too good to eat," they all exclaimed inwardly as they chewed the meat.

  Unfortunately, Little Stream had already put away the wine before they arrived, and their relationship wasn't great either. Little Stream wouldn't give them his good homemade wine to drink, and there wasn't much of it anyway. Otherwise, having them eat roasted meat while drinking strong liquor would be an unforgettable pleasure for a lifetime!

  As the saying goes, "When you take someone's hand, it's soft, but when you eat their food, your mouth is short." During the process of eating meat, Little Spring Heaven asked them many questions out of curiosity about everything. As long as they knew the answers, they replied one by one without feeling bored at all, making Little Flowing Star exclaim in admiration at Little Spring Heaven's adorable yet terrifying killing power.

  And at the moment they saw the small shooting stars, they knew that both of them were 4th-stage elementary warriors! Ten-year-old 4th-stage warriors! These two kids must either be geniuses or have a very strong family background. Either way, it's worth being amazed. Of course, they only felt amazed in their hearts and didn't show it on their faces. That would be too impolite.
