Chapter 1022 The Cursed Dragon and His Human Knight (9)

The Cursed Dragon and His Human Knight (Part 9)

The mercenary town has recently fallen into a state of madness. This state is mainly reflected in the fact that the population flow has suddenly increased by more than twenty times. The previous state of rushing back and forth for missions has turned into staying in the town all day, and occasionally going to the only tavern in the town for a drink.

The purpose of drinking is naturally not just to get drunk, but more to find out some valuable information from the people coming and going in the town.

For example, not long ago everyone heard the dragon's roar that resounded throughout the entire continent. Where did that dragon come from and where can we find it?

There is almost no mercenary who doesn't want to find this dragon. After all, no one is not paying attention to the two top S-level tasks in the mercenary task hall.

One is from the royal family of the Drai Empire, and the other is from the Temple of Light, but both are offering a bounty for the cursed dragon, and they want it alive.

In addition, there is an A-level mission, which involves the brave hero from the Dragon Slayer Team, who is almost unknown to everyone.

The reward offered by this brave prince is for any information about a dragon. Anyone who can provide reliable location information will receive a handsome reward. This is the real reason why the mercenary town attracts so many low-level mercenaries.

Compared to diligently completing tasks to increase mercenary levels and get rewards, this high-level bounty with no level restrictions is the overnight wealth that everyone desires most.

Sophia is the bartender's female bartender. She is a typical orc. She carries a huge bottle on her shoulders and shuttles between different guests, removing corks and pouring wine for them.

Song Ning, who was sitting in the corner, was observing everything here with a gloomy face. He watched Sophia walking around with a wine barrel, chatting with the mercenaries from time to time, and then a thoughtful expression appeared on his face.

Song Ning also had a thoughtful expression, but when Sophia walked in front of him, he became his usual unkempt and decadent look again.

Sofia tapped his desk with one hand and glanced at his wine glass.

"Boss Ning, are you worried about something? It's not like you to drink so little, or is it because you have something else that you care about more, like these people?"

She nodded towards the mercenaries at the table in the northwest corner and casually said, "They've all had more than one drink, but you know, they're all here for that."

Song Ning's expression didn't change. He took a big gulp of wheat beer and said casually.

"I knew this even earlier than you did. Why do you think I haven't come here to drink for so long? There are many more people who go to my place than here."

Song Ning did not lie when he said this. The store he opened in the mercenary town has always been popular because of its fair prices and the private sale of recovery potions.

After these mercenaries flocked here recently, his business has indeed become much better, especially after many people discovered that he has recovery potions that cannot be bought anywhere else, basically new business has been introduced to him continuously.

Song Ning even came here to drink today because he was lazy. Although his purpose was to inquire about some information, it was not the main reason.

When he said this, Sophia immediately realized that this was indeed a well-known fact.
