The distance between Sunset Town and the ancient city is not far.
It only takes dozens of minutes to walk.
If you borrow horses from the inn, it only takes about ten minutes.
However, Dolank and Ellie did not choose horses, but went on foot.
According to the information obtained from the Mercenary Association, Kate, who issued the mission, once emphasized that the mysterious life in Sunset Town did not appear recently, but has been around for a long time.
It's just that the recent activities have been extremely frequent, often causing people to disappear.
Although the Mercenary Federation also sent a large number of mercenary elites to ensure that no accidents occurred during the anniversary festival, the conclusion was that there was nothing wrong with Sunset Town.
It was also compiled into a report, describing the investigation process in great detail, and there was nothing unusual about it.
The so-called "missing people" in Kate's mouth were later confirmed not to be missing, because Kate said that most of the missing people were hunters who went up to the mountains to hunt, but the mercenaries did encounter these people in the mountains.
It is also for this reason that the Mercenary Federation believes that Kate is mentally disturbed.
But Dolank knew very well that he could feel that the ash-brown boy was not lying, and it was impossible for those eyes to deceive him.
He could also guess that the senior officials of the Mercenary Federation could also guess that Kate was not lying, but the matter was indeed beyond quibble, so the Mercenary Federation had no choice but to continue to suspend the task, but it could no longer stop the manpower from wasting more effort.
Got it "But what's a little strange is" Dolank suddenly said, "We wanted to know what the mercenaries sent to Sunset Town knew.
It turned out that these mercenaries were all on mission today.
Is it a coincidence or something wrong?
Woolen cloth" "It's quite strange."
Ellie looked at Dolank and smiled, "But they should have no reason to avoid us.
Could it be that they knew in advance that we would come back to take care of this matter?"
"Same."
Dolanke nodded.
After the two of them accepted the mission, they also wanted to find out the mercenaries who were on the mission at that time to understand the situation.
However, what they did not expect was that all the mercenaries who were on the mission at that time were not in the Ancient City Mercenary Association.
The group of mercenaries who drove away Kate only heard about this incident and became hostile to the young Kate who came to the mercenary association again.
This coincidence made Dolank feel a little uneasy.
At this moment, a guest that no one expected came to the ancient city.
"Squeak."
The door of the grocery store opened again, and a handsome blond boy walked into the store.
"Welcome, may I ask?"
The black-haired girl who heard the noise hurriedly came out of the back hall again.
She had already packed the boss's treasures and said with a smile, "What do you need?"
"" The blond boy did not speak, but looked around and frowned, "Where is this place?"
"Ah" the black-haired girl was startled, but looking at the appearance and dress of the beautiful boy in front of her, he should be a noble young man who came to attend the anniversary festival.
It was normal that he had never seen such a civilian shop before.
The girl soon returned to normal. , explained, "We are a grocery store that sells Warcraft powder.
It is usually provided to hunters or people living in the mountains and forests."
"Warcraft powder" The beautiful boy still frowned and suddenly sniffed, as if he was looking for some smell.
What are you doing?
Is there any smell here?
The girl was a little confused.
Although these Warcraft powders were made from feces, after being made by hand, there would be no smell that humans could smell.
Moreover, the bottles were sealed well and nothing could be smelled.
"It's very light, but it's really pure."
The beautiful boy sniffed carefully for a while and suddenly said, "It's there."
As he said that, under the girl's dazed eyes, the beautiful boy wanted to enter the back hall, as if this was not someone else's shop, but his own back garden.
"Wait a minute."

The girl immediately stopped him, with a bad look on her face, "Guests are not allowed to let outsiders in."
"An outsider."
The beautiful boy turned his head and looked at the girl, with a slightly evil look on his face, "I am not an outsider when it comes to things like that."
The beautiful boy's meaningless words left the girl confused, but this was not the reason for the beautiful boy to enter the back room.
"Guest, if you continue to be so unreasonable, I will drive you away."
The girl walked forward in three steps and stood between the beautiful boy and the back hall door.
She put her hands on her hips and shouted.
""The beautiful boy was silent, looking at the girl without saying a word.
The girl was a little frightened by this look.
The beautiful boy's look seemed to be a mixture of excitement and teasing as if he had seen some very interesting toy.
"What's your name?"
the beautiful boy asked.
"My name is Lucia, Lucia Meili."
The girl thought for a while and then said her name.
"Lucia Amelia, you are not from the Golden Continent" the beautiful boy asked, looking at the girl's black hair.
"No, I actually said, "Why should I tell you?"
The girl suddenly reacted and said angrily, "What on earth are you here for?"
"It's okay, just taking a look."
The beautiful boy smiled, turned around and walked towards the door, "Nice to meet you, Rukia."
Before Rukia could say anything, the beautiful boy had already opened the door of the grocery store and was about to leave.
"That's right."
But just when the beautiful boy was about to leave, he suddenly seemed to remember something, turned his head and smiled at Lucia, "I forgot to introduce myself, my name is Lu Qi, Lu Qi Dover Ful, don't forget Oh” "Squeak."
The door closed, and the blond handsome boy left.
Lucia stood there blankly, then seemed to think of something, and suddenly realized, she hit her hand: "Is this what the boss said about me being approached?
" "Hahahaha, I was accosted, and the boss said that no one wants to snort at me.
When he comes back, I must let him know how powerful I am."
Lucia smiled happily, and muttered something in her mouth, "Lucci, Luchi."
I’ve never heard of this surname, Dovefor.
He’s probably not a foreign noble from the Golden Continent.”
On the road outside the "Shit Is More Expensive than Gold" grocery store, Lucidover was walking leisurely towards his next destination.
He didn't know that if he had come here earlier, or Dolan If they had arrived here later, everything that would happen next would have changed.
Sunset Town, this town is so named because it is close to the peak called Sunset Mountain.
The residents of this town make a living from the mountains, and it is a village with many hunters.
Sunset Mountain is very large, and there is also some Warcraft action, but it is rich in resources, so it is a very good treasure trove for experienced hunters.
But recently, there seems to be a shadow called "fear" hanging over Sunset Town.
At least for Kate, who was born and raised here, this atmosphere is so strong that he can't breathe normally.
The hunters who went up to the mountains to hunt in the town had all disappeared one by one recently.
At first, no one cared about it, because sometimes it was normal for hunters to go up to the mountains and stay even for three or four days.
But dozens of hunters went up the mountain and there was no news from any of them, which was really unsettling.
And there has always been a legend in the town that this Sunset Mountain is where a mysterious creature lives.
They have the behavior of robbing humans, and no one has seen what they are.
Naturally, no one believed this legend at first, but as news of the missing hunters gradually spread, this legend was also brought to the forefront.
After the hunter disappeared, people in the town began to report that their relatives were missing.
This is different from hunters.
Hunters who go up the mountain may encounter various dangers or other emergencies and have difficulty returning.

However, it is abnormal for people in the town to disappear.
People in the town soon became panicked, and Kate suddenly discovered one morning that her sister, who depended on her for life, suddenly disappeared.
In desperation, he immediately came to the Ancient City Mercenary Association and submitted his request.
The top management of the Mercenary Association also took it seriously and immediately issued the task and gathered all the mercenaries.
But here's the weird thing.
The mercenaries came to the town and learned that many people indeed claimed that their relatives were missing.
However, before the mercenaries could finish their investigation, those missing relatives appeared one after another.
According to them, they were just going for a normal walk or having fun, but they didn't tell their family.
Although there were a lot of people missing at once and the situation was quite unusual, the mercenaries initially wanted to investigate whether there was anything wrong with these people, but the residents of the town soon proved that these people were their relatives.
And there is no problem.
The mercenaries concluded that this happened because rumors and legends made people panic.
But the root of the problem still lies in the missing hunters.
So the mercenaries were divided into several elite teams and went up the mountain to look for these hunters.
I originally thought it would be an arduous task, but unexpectedly, good news came soon.
Most of the hunters were found.
They were just hunting some targets that were difficult to hunt in the mountains, so they did not go down the mountain.
This situation is actually quite common.
It's just the large number of people that causes problems In this way, this is just a farce to scare themselves.
The mercenaries conducted repeated investigations.
Although some hunters were not found, other hunters told the mercenaries that these hunters are very experienced masters and they usually hide.
Get up to hunt, even other hunters can't find them.
In this case, the mercenaries closed the team and returned to the Mercenary Association.
But it wasn't that they thought it was Kate lying, and they didn't blame Kate at that time.
But unexpectedly, in the afternoon after the mercenaries returned, Kate came to the mercenary association again, claiming to have seen mysterious creatures appear and eat people.
This also shocked the mercenaries.
They thought they had not completely discovered the problem, so they formed a team again and followed Kate to Sunset Town.
But this time, something happened that made the mercenaries confused and angry.
The person who was eaten in Kate's mouth appeared in front of them again and greeted them as if nothing had happened.
The so-called mysterious creature was also discovered with the help of mercenaries who were good at tracking.
It was just a third-level monster, and this monster was not carnivorous.
The mercenaries felt that they were being tricked and mobilized their troops to form a team, but it turned out that they were doing it for a mere third-level monster.
The mercenary who left angrily told other mercenaries what happened today, and the next day, other mercenaries saw Kate kneeling in front of the mercenary association.
Then the scene that Dolank saw happened
