In the evening of that day, Kino's motorcade arrived in Shilin Town.

The news spread from ten to ten, and the soldiers came out after hearing the news. When they heard that Kino had brought not only live animals and livestock, sophisticated weapons, but also many strange faces, they came to watch one after another.

It has to be said that these mercenaries who eat wine and meat are different from the malnourished border guards. Except for Lugo, who is leaner, the others are all strong men. The only people who can compare with them in burly include Paladin

, the centurions including Baixa.

Among the mercenaries was a strong man carrying an axe. After getting off the car, he glanced at the thin Xilin Town soldiers with disdain and said with ridicule: "Look at these monkeys, I can break them with just one breath!"

Paladin and others dared not speak out in anger, after all, this was the person brought back by Kino, and it was not their turn to deal with him.

Seeing that none of the soldiers spoke, the strong man mistakenly thought that he was awesome and spat on the ground arrogantly: "He~tui!"

Kino was counting supplies with the quartermaster, without looking back: "Take your clothes and wipe up the saliva on the floor."

The strong man had quite a stubborn temper. The muscles on his face twitched and his eyes widened: "What did you say?!"

Kino looked at him with amber eyes and a smile: "Maybe you can lick it clean."

The strong man's temper erupted like a volcano, and he walked over with angry eyes.

Paladin was about to draw his sword, but realized something, stood there with a sneer, and winked at the soldiers who were about to move, telling no one to move.

The soldiers did not move, nor did the remaining 31 mercenaries, because they wanted to explore the bottom.

Senior mercenaries like Lugo can feel that Chino is dangerous, but how dangerous it is and where it lies cannot be explained in a few words.

It is not ruled out that intuition is wrong, after all, intuition is not always accurate.

Now someone happens to stand up and challenge the authority, so let's take a look at what Chino can do.

Wild dogs are no better than domestic dogs. Wild dogs are the most difficult to tame. You need to feed them well and be stronger than them. Both conditions are indispensable.

The strong man walked up to Kino. In order to be eye-level with Kino, he even had to squat down. There was phlegm in his throat, and he was ready to spit into Kino's face: "he~"

Suddenly, an extremely thin black line appeared, drawing a perfect semicircle in the sky, and then disappeared in an instant.

The black light of the blade seemed darker than the night.

Kino took out a tissue and wiped the dagger, put it in his arms, and continued to count supplies with the quartermaster without looking at the frozen strong man.

Without any warning, a bloodstain appeared on the side of the strong man's neck away from Kino.

"Pfft!!!" The thin line-like wound was squeezed by the arterial blood pressure, and the blood arrow shot out several meters away. The strong man's body also collapsed to the ground along with the inertia. Corpse tremors appeared from time to time, and soon there was no movement.

.

At this moment, all the mercenaries, especially Lugo, had cold hands and feet.

He didn't know if others saw it clearly, but at least he saw it clearly.

Kino didn't simply kill someone just now. The speed with which he drew the knife was terrifyingly fast. The most obvious evidence was that there was no blood on the paper towel used to wipe the dagger.

Because when the dagger cut the strong man's artery, the speed was too fast, and the blood didn't have time to get on it.

Not to mention that at such a terrifying speed, Kino actually controlled the cutting angle to perfection, allowing the blood from the artery wound to spray out to the outside without any splash on the body. It was as precise as a surgical operation.

Lugo recalled that he had bargained with this man in the tavern, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

I don't know how long the silence lasted, until a pool of blood gathered under the strong man's body. Lugo knelt down on one knee, stretched out his hand, and hammered his chest hard, regularly and rhythmically.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!..." Soon, the other mercenaries followed suit and performed the same action, and the dull sound of impact was heart-stirring and resounded over Xilin Town.

This action represents surrender in Doguland culture.

No words were needed, the wild dogs obeyed.

...

After arranging the accommodation for the 31 mercenaries, and sorting out the supplies and equipment with the quartermaster, Kino found Paladin: "Did anything happen during my absence?"

Paladin shook his head: "No, sir, everything goes well."

"That's good."

"Forehead..."

"explain."

Paladin rubbed the back of his head: "It can't be said to be a big deal. There is just a caravan with just two people. Their leader said he wanted to find you, and asked you when you would come back and where you were... Anyway, he talked a lot. But

If there is no problem with their goods, I will let them go."

Kino thought for a while and asked: "What kind of person?"

Paladin said bluntly: "Two men."

"There are more than 5,000 people in Xilin Town. You want me to find two men? Be specific."

"Um...two...very ordinary-looking men."

Chino: "?"

Seeing Kino frowning, Paladin kept patting his forehead, trying to remember something. Suddenly, he opened his eyes wide and said: "Oh, yes, that leader is wearing a ring on his hand. I have never seen that before.

I don’t know if it’s a craft from the Far East. They came from Xizhou.”

With the ring mentioned by Paladin as a clue, it will be much easier to find it.

Jewelry such as rings are generally luxuries for silver-moon settlements, and not many people in Xilin Town can afford them.

But if these two people have left Xilin Town or taken off their rings, then they are looking for a needle in a haystack with no way to find it.

Xilin Town is no better than a closed rural town. It is located on the border and has a large population flow, making it easy for outsiders to hide here.

Kino was wondering, what would be the identities of these two people?

If it was someone whom "Kino" knew before, or if he was visiting on official business, he would probably leave a message or something like that and not leave without saying hello.

Or are they just ordinary caravans who are just talkative?

or...

Kino subconsciously looked at the mark of the rejecter.

【241:23:11】

The countdown is very clear, there are still 10 days until the invasion of the Samsara Team, it cannot be the Samsaras who come to explore the way first.

Kino paid a little attention to this matter, but didn't think too much about it. After all, the reincarnation invasion is the main problem now.

He instructed: "Paladin, increase the amount of training for the soldiers during this period, especially the training of crossbows and swords; change the three meals a day to five meals a day, and each person must have at least four meat dishes per meal; stand guard.

In terms of work, we changed from three shifts to six shifts to ensure everyone's sleep time."

Paladin hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "You seem to be very interested in the garrison strength in Xilin Town recently. What will happen next?"

Acting too mysteriously at this time will actually arouse suspicion. Chino put on a relaxed smile and said: "What? Can't I be a good civil affairs official and fulfill my duties to Xilin Town and you?"
