Chapter 49 Accepting the Hunting Team's Invitation

Teeter Town.

Defense Officer Craigie approached Richard.

"Our main target of this monster hunting is the black-faced monkey. There are so many of these monkeys in the Gadlanmon Mountains. If we don't hunt them regularly and limit their range of activities, they will soon run to the town of Tete."

Hunting black-faced monkeys?

Richard, who is about to be promoted to a third-level wizard, is naturally not afraid of this. Even if he goes hunting, he will go with Viscount Fast's private army, and the wizard will definitely be under the protection of the team.

"Okay, I'll join the hunt." Richard replied.

Craigie nodded. There were so many black-faced monkeys that even though his own soldiers were able to handle them, with the help of a few wizards, casualties would naturally be reduced.

After Craigie left, Richard asked Lucy to call Hansen and Pine in.

"Lord Richard, what do you want to talk to us about?"

Hansen asked. Hansen had also seen Craigie, the defense officer of Teet Town, just now. Could it be related to him?

"Just now, Craig, the defense officer of Teet Town, came and invited me to join this monster hunting." Richard paused, and then said, "I have agreed."

Richard observed the reactions of the two knights. Hansen had a serious expression on his face, while Pine was a little confused. They probably didn't know the strength of the Black-Faced Monkey.

"But I have something else that I need a knight to do, so you don't have to go on this hunt. Who of you wants to go?"

Richard asked.

Anyway, a first-level knight can't do much in the hunting team. Richard thought, why not take this opportunity to let the knight buy back the Wind Ling Technique so that he can learn it directly after the hunting is over.

"This time, please help me buy some magic books that are not available in Teet Town. I will give the person who goes there 300 gold coins."

Three hundred gold coins.

Pine was stunned, he had never seen so much money in his life. Hansen was also a little surprised, but then he put his mind at ease.

There is no doubt that Richard's arrangement is very profitable. Three hundred gold coins, as long as some of them can be deducted, will be a huge sum of money for the two knights.

However, it is impossible to abscond with the money, and the two knights still need to serve under Richard.

After a period of stalemate, Hansen spoke first: "Sir Richard, let Payne take charge of this mission! I will still be needed to lead the team for the next monster hunting mission."

Richard nodded and let Hansen go out first without saying anything more.

Afterwards, Richard gave Pine some instructions, gave Pine three hundred gold coins, and let Pine leave Teet Town first.

Three hundred gold coins were just the money Richard needed to make a few enchanted equipment. Even if they were lost, it wouldn't be a big deal. On the contrary, it would help him see his subordinates more clearly.

……

The Warcraft hunting team went on their first hunt. All four wizards accepted Craigie's invitation, but Margaret did not come.

Richard couldn't help but chuckle when he saw Bertha and Cronin hanging out together, and the two of them wearing the same leather armor.

Needless to say, these two pieces of leather armor must have been bought by Cronin with the money from selling the wind elemental ring. I wonder how long Cronin's money can last.

However, Bertha still needs Cronin to help her make enchanted equipment, so the two of them should not break up so soon.

Richard and Dart, who was also observing the two of them, looked at each other and both laughed.

What Richard didn't see was that a noble knight in the hunting team was staring at Bertha and Cronin with red eyes. He was the noble boy who was intimate with Bertha on the day of the cocktail party.

As if she had been stared at for too long, Bertha also looked towards the noble boy and threw him a provocative glance.

……

Mount Gadrammon.

The dense woods made rustling sounds in the breeze, and small animals jumped out of the woods from time to time, scaring the soldiers of the nearby hunting team.

The sun was scorching, and the group was soon sweating as they were climbing the mountain.

As the weather was still very hot, the hunting team of several hundred people did not move very fast. Craigie led the team at the front, and the other soldiers were divided into more than a dozen small teams, distributed in a fan shape.

Richard and his group of wizards were in the center of the team, and the closest to them were the four wizards' squire knights.

For safety reasons, Richard also put on the Earth Bear leather armor, but he didn't expect that it was so hot today that he was sweating all over after a short while.

Bertha and Cronin had taken off their leather armor because of the heat, and Cronin was even fanning Bertha enthusiastically.

However, the hunting team continued patrolling until noon and found no trace of the black-faced monkey.

After all, the forest is the home ground of the black-faced monkeys. They are also quite intelligent and know that the hunting team is not easy to mess with, so they will definitely avoid the hunting team's area.

However, the hunting team must take advantage of the hunting time to eliminate a group of black-faced monkeys.

"Take a break for an hour."

Cronin, who was at the front of the team, gave the order.

Bertha complained a few times, and Cronin beside her quickly asked his escort knight to take out a piece of silk cloth and put it on the ground for Bertha to sit on and rest.

After sweating, one just wants to drink water, but Richard knows that the human body needs to replenish salt when sweating profusely, so he took out his special salt. Richard also took the water bag from Hansen, put it in the water bag, gulped down a few mouthfuls, and let Hansen and the others drink it.

Richard took out a handkerchief, tilted his head back and wiped the sweat off his face.

However, Richard also felt several burning gazes directed at him.

Richard looked in the direction of his sight. Bertha swallowed and rolled her eyes at Richard. Next to her, Cronin's angry look made Richard feel uneasy.

Did I provoke you? Bertha was obviously using you, but you couldn't tell.

Richard looked in another direction and saw the noble boy who was intimate with Bertha in the garden at the cocktail party that day.

What was going on? How did he join the hunting team? Now there was something interesting to watch.

But why was he staring at him, and what was with that look that was the same as Cronin's?

Richard sighed secretly, this was too much charm, it was annoying to him too!

It was time for the hunting team to eat. Richard ate the lunch boxes prepared by Lucy and Patty, which tasted much better than the dry food Hansen prepared himself.

The unnoticed treetops.

A monkey with a completely black face was looking at the hunting team resting in the distance with angry eyes. However, although it was very angry, it did not make any sound, but silently observed the distribution of the hunting team.

Although its brain could not allow it to count the number of people in the hunting team, it could sense from the distribution of the hunting team that this time there were more people than in the previous hunts.

Moreover, this time the lord himself gave the order to teach these annoying humans a lesson.

Thinking of the powerful lord, the black-faced monkey couldn't help but shudder, but only a powerful lord could get rid of these annoying humans.
