Chapter 64 My Name Is Hall, I’m Panicking Now

"My name is Hall, and I'm panicking now."

"In front of me, there are hundreds of gnolls. They eat humans! And they like to eat alive!"

The only one who is a little confused and has not reacted yet is the newly joined level 8 rogue Hall.

When he was young, Hall was one of the best rogues in Blood Moon City digging underground ruins.

His personal vision, agility, and cautious acting style allowed Hall to survive the dangerous underground ruins adventure and gain a lot.

However, Hall, like most adventurers, naturally spends a lot of money when he has money.

Whether it is the enjoyment in life or the consumption of improving strength, purchasing magic weapons and equipment, spell scrolls, and life-saving alchemical potions are all expensive.

They are like whispers in the ears, attracting people to indulge in their dreams and longing for a better life, urging adventurers to continue their adventure.

However, after all, there are only a very small number of adventurers who can step into the extraordinary and extend their lifespan, or even step into legend, and be respected and praised by everyone.

An accident during an adventure, an inexplicable conflict, or even a fight caused by "unequal sharing of spoils".

It may ruin the adventurer's adventure career, or even his life!

Those adventurers who survived faced increasingly dangerous adventures as they grew older.

When there is no hope of improving the professional level, and the blood and courage have been exhausted over time, most of them have only one choice.

Put down the sword in his hand and return to the life of an ordinary person...

Hall, who is over 40 and has lost an arm, should have lived a retired life, away from adventure and fighting.

However, the huge family expenses of three sons and two daughters forced him to worry about his livelihood again.

Especially the two daughters, who are very talented and have embarked on the road of becoming professionals. The consumption has been rising, and the accumulation in the early years has disappeared quickly.

There are also rumors that the opponents he provoked in the early years are trying to cause trouble for him.

It happened that at this time, news of Adam Smith's rather lucrative recruitment spread in Blood Moon City.

Hall inspected it and resold himself for 180 gold coins.

On the first day of contact.

Hall was startled by the completely different Bay Village and the mysterious and powerful lord.

Then he felt a little at ease, especially after seeing the old Arnold's task of imparting experience to other soldiers.

Hall originally thought.

As long as he trains some young and impulsive wanderers, he can enjoy a pretty good salary and spend the rest of his life in peace.

With a smile on his face and pretending to be sneaky, Old John suddenly came up to him:

"Brother Hall? Do you want to make quick money??"

"Huh? Money has been a bit tight lately. Do you have any connections?"

"That's necessary. I'll visit the lumberyard with me tomorrow, and I'll get an extra two silver coins in salary every day."

"Call me!"

So the unsuspecting Hall joined the ranks of guarding the lumberyard.

On the first morning, nothing happened and it was indeed quite pleasant.

Before Hall could think about it:

"What will you have for lunch?"

"Where can we rest for a while after eating?"

The battle between the territory and the jackals broke out!

"This guy John is just a fart, you can't believe a word he says."

"Guarding the logging camp will indeed prevent you from encountering a fight, but you can't stop the lord and soldiers from fighting!"

Hall, who had not fought for a long time and was somewhat rusty in his skills, completed his mission with many dangers.

Killed a Gnoll Poacher Sentinel.

Just when Old Hall was hesitant about whether to join the battlefield, the jackals on the front battlefield had been wiped out.

While the jackals who were unwilling to fight were running away, Hall thought of the contribution John had shown him.

Based on the simple idea of ​​"if you don't take the money, it will be a kobold egg", he pursued him without hesitation.

He jumped down from the tree trunk lightly, landed on the back of the jackal, and pierced the opponent's spine with a sharp dagger.

When he successfully killed the first escaping jackal, Hall still had some hesitation in his heart.

But when I think about it, a jackal most likely represents 2 to 3 gold coins, which is enough to train two precious daughters for a month.

Hall didn't have much resistance and easily killed the second and third Jackal deserters.

And to prove his merit, Hall cut off their gnoll ears.

Looking at the last wolf man escaping, he couldn't hold it back after all.

With one step faster than anyone else, Hall successfully circled in front of the Jackal and lurked in a tree.

He just waited for the escaping gnoll to pass by so that he could return with the ears that could be exchanged for gold coins.

As a result, I got hit!

A large number of jackals came around, hundreds of them!

They surrounded the gnoll deserter who was originally the prey, and squawked under Hall.

Before Hall, who was sweating deeply, could react, he suddenly realized something extremely terrifying.

Because he was not prepared for the battle in advance, he did not have a sealed bag to collect the loot, and the bloody ear that had just been cut off was still in his arms.

The strong smell of blood could be clearly smelled even by his dull nose!

The gnolls, who have a very sensitive sense of smell, are very likely to have smelled this smell.

It should be that they just haven't been able to tell whether it came from the fleeing gnolls or his arms!

Panic and fear grabbed Hall's heart, squeezing it hard, making him a little breathless.

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have trusted John..."

"Otherwise, I would still be lying comfortably in the safe Bay Village..."

"If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been greedy to chase the last gnoll..."

"Otherwise, I would have given more than 10 gold coins to my precious daughters..."

"If I had known earlier..."

"..."

In short, Hall is now quite regretful!

Regret and helplessness made Hall confused. The sharp and dense howling suddenly woke him up, and he looked down cautiously.

Nearly 500 gnolls were divided into two parts, left and right, and they surrounded the front.

Hall was sure that unspeakable thoughts surged into his mind.

Once such a large number of gnolls launch a surprise attack on the lord and soldiers, it is very likely to cause huge casualties.

There is even a danger of annihilation!

Hall twisted his thigh hard to calm down the pain, and stared at the gnolls who were divided into two teams below.

Below him, there were dozens of gnoll barbarians surrounding two cloaked gnoll watchers.

This should be the backup force and command center of the gnolls!

"No, I must inform the lord."

"If the lord is alive, he will definitely give my two daughters a generous pension with his generosity..."

"If they die, I can't live anyway..."

With a determined heart, Hall pulled out the scroll from his waist.

In a chant, a bright red fireball was released.

Feeling the violent fluctuations of the fire element, the gnoll watchers below raised their heads in horror.

Boom!
