Episode 8: Walking a Thousand Miles Chapter 15: The Pharmacist

After another assassination, the siblings of Jenny and Keane also truly realized that this time the road to the county town of Chill was going to be full of dangers. There was always the danger of being killed. Unable to help themselves, the siblings also relied on Linley.

“Big brother Lei, what do you think we should do in the future?”

Jenny looked at Linley and inquired with some worry in her heart.

At this moment, both Jenny and Keane felt as if the future was shrouded in mist, they couldn’t see the way forward and didn’t know what would happen if they continued on.

Looking at this innocent sibling, Linley comforted, “Don’t worry, the acting city lord of a county city, I’m still confident in dealing with it.”

Nowadays, Lin Lei was at rank eight, and after his dragonization, he was at the peak of rank nine. As for the Black Striped Cloud Leopard Heilu, who was also a peak level nine magical beast, Bebe’s strength was no less than that of Heilu and Linley.

With this man and two magical beasts combined, as long as a Saint Realm powerhouse didn’t show up, it was feared that even more people wouldn’t be able to stop them.

When Jenny and Keane heard Linley’s words, they couldn’t help but worship Linley a little in the bottom of their hearts.

Their siblings were unable to judge Linley’s true strength even now, and in their siblings’ eyes, Linley was a mysterious powerhouse. As for Lambert on the side, seeing this scene, his heart was also pleased. As long as Jenny and Keane’s siblings were able to live a safe and quiet life, he, the old servant, was willing to die. For a strong man to be able to help the countryside siblings regardless of anything else, this kind of action alone was enough for Lambert to be grateful to Linley from the bottom of his heart.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

A knock sounded outside the courtyard door.

“I’ll go open the door.”

Lambert said smilingly. “Perhaps the waiter from the breakfast delivery place has arrived.”

“We’re ready for breakfast.”

Linley smiled, leading Jenny and Keane towards the living room, while that Lambert opened the courtyard yard door at this moment, and two waiters pushing food carts walked in.

“Bring all of this to the living room.”

Lambert instructed smilingly.

“Yes, sir.”

These two waiters were both humble in their attitudes and pushed the food carts forward separately. Only during the march the two looked at each other. But a hint of determination flashed through.

This time, they had come to assassinate Keane, and whether they succeeded or not, they were bound to die.

They could have known beforehand about the existence of Linley, a powerful man, and both Linley and his black panther were enough to kill them easily. Sitting down in the main seat, Keane and Jenny sat on either side, the two waiters wearing humble smiles. Pushing a food cart into the living room. “Sir, miss, this roasted whole lamb is?”

The waiter lifted the iron lid.

“Put it on the ground over here.”

Linley pointed to the stone floor on the ground next to him, while the black-striped cloud panther Heilu was lying on the ground looking up at the roasted whole lamb.

With Heilu’s appetite. A roasted whole lamb could only be considered breakfast.

“Yes. Sir.”

The waiter was respectfully holding that special large chassis and directly placed the roasted whole lamb on the ground. Bebe directly leaped over, and with a slash of its sharp claws, a roasted lamb thigh was grabbed by it.

Heilu glared at Bebe, and then also walked over and started to tear and eat it with a big bite.

“Sir, please.”

That waiter placed the dinner plate in front of Linley, before placing another dinner plate in front of Keane.

The other waiter was also carrying dishes onto the table at this moment.

At this moment – both waiters were leaning next to Keene, who without any caution at all was excitedly picking up his knife and fork to start enjoying his meal.

The two waiters looked at each other. With a mutual understanding, they grabbed at Keane almost simultaneously. The hands became claws. They stabbed at Keane’s chest, head, throat and other vital parts.

Four hands attacked at the same time!

Normally, a fifth or sixth level warrior would be able to easily smash a boulder with a slap. It was a rank four warrior who could directly poke through a thick wooden board.

Keane. An ordinary teenager with very weak strength, whether it was his head or throat, I’m afraid he wouldn’t be able to resist any of the attacks.

Too close to the ground.

The two attendants were too close to Keane, and the striking distance was too close. With such a short distance, it was an eighth level warrior, and I’m afraid that just after reacting, Keene would already be dead. Linley let out a cold snort.

A demonic purple light instantly flashed and disappeared, only to hear ear-piercing screams ringing out, and all four hands of those two attendants landed brokenly on the ground.

“Ah.”

Jenny jumped straight up in fright.

“Young master.”

Next to him, Lambert reacted and angrily kicked the two waiters into the wall so hard that the wall shook. The two attendants groaned in a low voice, only to look at each other with a hint of despair in their eyes.

“You, how are you?”

One of the attendants looked at Linley incredulously.

At that time, the two of them were only half a meter away from Keene, and although the two of them were only rank four warriors, with a distance of half a meter, it was estimated that they wouldn’t even need to blink, they would be enough to kill Keene.

That amount of time would be too late for even a strong person to react. But Linley not only reacted, he also broke all four of their hands.

“Wondering why I reacted?”

Linley looked at the two of them blandly, “An ordinary attendant would have his hands cultivated to the point that you have?”

These two looked at their palms.

The men led by that red-haired man this time were all elite archers, and as an elite archer who had spent years and years in hard cultivation, the calluses on those hands were clear.

These two attendants looked at each other, filled with despair.

And their broken wrists are bleeding continuously, so go on after a while, they are also sure to bleed to death. But they knew …… that if they failed in their mission, even if Linley let them go, their captain and Mrs. Weed would not let them go. Wouldn’t let them go either.

“Don’t mind them, let’s get going right away.”

Linley said as he stood up. Jenny and Keane had also experienced two assassinations, and this third time hadn’t been as vulnerable as the last two. Keane even whispered, “Big brother Lei, this breakfast? Are we packing it up and taking it on the road to eat?”

“No.”

Linley shook his head, “Be careful with what you eat in the future as well, I doubt it. It’s poisoned.”

“Poisoned?”

Keane looked at the food on his plate, but was startled.

“Zee next to the ground Beibei this time but called out to Linley, Linley looked at Beibei and couldn’t help but smile.

“Yes, you’re not afraid of poison, alright.”

Linley said helplessly.

In fact, magical beasts were very different from humans even in their physiology, and many magical beasts were inherently toxic, and the poisons that humans feared, they weren’t necessarily afraid of. The more powerful a magical beast was, the more inherently resistant to poison it was. Moreover, magical beasts generally live in primitive forests and other places. From childhood, they will come into contact with some poison or something. This generation down, the magic beast anti-poison ability is naturally stronger than one generation. Setting off to leave the hotel, while the red-haired man watched from afar as Linley’s group of people left, his face was even more unsightly.

“Lei?”

The red-haired man muttered. “Where did such an expert appear from. And he also happened to get involved with these two countryside siblings.”

The red-haired man was indignant in his heart.

This time, the task of assassinating Keane and Jenny was originally very easy. Lambert, this old servant, his strength didn’t count for much at all. But the original easy task, from which a mysterious expert suddenly appeared, was tricky.

“There’s no way around it, we can only report it to madam.”

The red-haired man knew how powerful Linley was, and he simply didn’t dare to take the risk.

The O’Brien Empire, as the number one military powerhouse on the Yulan Continent, had a very well-developed summoning system. It was a summoning team that was dominated by the fifth level magical beast, the Green Wind Eagle.

The entire O’Brien Empire. There were several Green Wind Eagles in every county and city, and there were specialized people who controlled these Green Wind Eagles. The Green Wind Eagles were also extremely intelligent, and they knew their way around. Under the orders of their masters, they can completely send letters to the places they need to go.

It was just that this Green Wind Eagles summoning letters had to be used by the official side of the empire. General civilians and even nobles are not qualified to use it. Of course,……, the army also has its own independent summoning system.

The red-haired man took the letter from the city lord of Chir County, and then asked Black Stone City to send a Green Wind Eagle to Chir County.

The speed of straight flight in the air was far greater than the speed of running on the ground, and not long after Linley and the rest of the group had left Blackstone City, the Green Wind Eagle arrived at Chir County City.

Chir County, this was a relatively large city.

It was also ranked in the top ten amongst the northwestern provinces, and at the moment, inside that castle owned by the city’s owner, the atmosphere was depressing and gloomy.

The owner of this castle was Mrs. Weed! A noblewoman famous for her coldness and arrogance two middle-aged men ran into the middle of the castle’s back garden with quick steps, and at this moment the graceful and noble Mrs. Weed was enjoying the sunlight under the service of her maids.

“What is the matter, my two brothers?”

Mrs. Weed looked up at the two middle-aged men.

“Sister, this is the letter sent from the summoning office, this mission, failed.”

The slightly fatter of the two men said.

“Failed? How could Cord be so useless?”

Mrs. Weed received the letter and opened it, her brows couldn’t help but wrinkle up as she queried, “A mysterious strong man with a black panther?”

According to the narrative in the red-haired man Cord’s letter, that black leopard was at least a rank eight magical beast, and that mysterious man was naturally at least a rank eight strongman, or even a rank nine strongman.

Mrs. Weed instantly felt that this letter was heavy.

“Sister, what should we do?”

Mrs. Weed’s elder brother, the fatter man inquired. And Mrs. Weed’s second brother looked at Mrs. Weed with the same expectation.

Mrs. Weed frowned and thought for a moment.

“Both brothers, you go and ask Apothecary Holmer.”

Mrs. Weed said calmly.

“That old monster Holmer?”

Her second brother immediately shrieked.

Mrs. Weed said coldly, “According to Cord’s investigation, that mysterious man named Ray is at least a rank eight powerhouse, if not a rank nine powerhouse. I don’t have the strength to kill a rank nine powerhouse head on, it’s better to let Apothecary Holmer do it. Apothecary Holmer, after all, has a precedent of killing a rank nine powerhouse.”

“But Holmer he ……”

Mrs. Weed’s elder brother was also a bit hesitant.

“Hmph, the two of you will never achieve great things if you go on like this. Even if I kill Keane, just like you guys, you still want to be the city lord?”

Mrs. Weed snorted coldly.

“Okay, sister, we’ll go to the Holmer Apothecary now!”

Mrs. Weed’s two brothers gave in.

The title of Holmer Apothecary was self-appointed by Holmer himself.

Some people thought that Holmer was a killer, but Holmer thought that he was a pharmacist.

Indeed, Holmo’s ability to save people was very high, Holmo was over three hundred years old this year, and it was almost impossible for a level six warrior to live to be over three hundred years old. But Holmo did it, and it looks like, Holmo still looks good. It is because Hormo he always take some strange medicinal herbs, even make more than three hundred years old his body as strong as a strong man general robust.

“Oooh, Mrs. Weed is really generous enough, this time the business can be done, can be done ……”

Holmer stroked the beard that was already a bit white and smiled smugly.

Mrs. Weed’s two brothers were still a bit formal in front of Holmer.

“Apothecary Holmer, your old man should still leave early.”

Mrs. Weed’s elder brother urged, “Our people, will bring you to meet your target this time.”

“Haha, why don’t you guys pay half of the deposit first, I’ll set off right away.”

Holmer laughed. “Deposit?”

The two brothers glared.

In Chil County City, the two of them had never really been so stifled. However, having heard of Holmo’s deeds, the two brothers didn’t dare to annoy this old man who called himself a pharmacist. Once this old man got angry, no one knew how many people would have to die.
