Chapter 43 Hidden dangers

Wendel acted as if he respected Ender on the surface, but he didn't take Ender seriously in his heart - even if he heard Xavier claiming Ender was a "master", he had never seen Ender killing people after all.

After all, this new guard hunter is just a young boy whose hair has not yet faded, and he is very tender - I have eaten more salt than the rice he has eaten, so how can I not deal with it?

Even though he is very skilled in martial arts, his combat effectiveness cannot solve everything. As long as he runs through words, he can force him into a dead end and has to agree to his own conditions.

"Robbie and Harry's family are both old hunters. I know that since you can become the new guard hunter, you must be very good in martial arts, but experience is also very important. If you accept these two children, their family will definitely be very helpful to you in the future - not to mention that I have some face in the village, and I will also give you a good price in terms of acquisition."

Wendel's family owns a shop that purchases specialties, and regularly purchases materials collected by villagers and sells them to the town. He is considered a rich man in the village.

Guard hunters can obtain one-third of the collector's income, but most of these incomes are paid in physical form. If you want to exchange for money, you often have to be exploited by such merchants. Xavier opened a shop to buy fur, so as to avoid this exploitation.

In Xavier's view, Ender, a young man, was gentle on the surface, but actually had a cruel and irritable personality, and was not a good person at all.

That night, an assassin attacked, and the young man didn't hesitate to kill the assassin, and even the two locals who accompanied the assassin were not spared - one of them was his acquaintance.

That's not all. He couldn't wait even at dawn, so he rushed to the town for more than ten miles alone, killing people and revenge. In addition, he saw dozens of thieves this morning - such a cruel, irritable, and vengeful personality, would he be able to take Wendel's trick?

Relying on these conditions to threaten? Are you showing off your body with a lot of meat in the tiger's mouth?

Anyway, Xavier was no longer angry, and he even felt a little pity for Wendel. After all, everyone had known each other for so many years, and watching each other step by step, Xavier felt somewhat sympathetic.

Wendel looked at Ender's smile and felt that the game was stable; Xavier saw the crisis in Ender's smile - when Ender's face smiled again, his eyes were looking at the sword left by the thief in the storage box!

"Uncle Xavier, you took the two boys brought by Mr. Wendell to make them familiar with the environment; Mr. Wendell, some thieves came yesterday, and I have to take you to see the traces they left behind - I want to make it clear to you that it is dangerous to be my apprentice."

The smile on Ander's face became gentler and his tone became more polite.

"No, no, they both came to be hunter apprentices and knew there would be dangers. You just need to take care of one or two of them."

Wendel thought Ender wanted to use danger to make him give up, but even if there was danger, it had something to do with him, and it wasn't him who came to be a hunter apprentice. Besides, can he be afraid of danger if he wants to make a name for himself in this world?

"You must go and see it. If you don't see it with your own eyes, I can't accept them both." Ender insisted.

"Uh--Okay, then I'll go see with you. If there are really many traces left by thieves, I'll ask for support to the village - but you may have to pay some errands."

Wendel thought about it and agreed, and could also earn some extra money for himself.

The duty of guarding the hunter is to clear out sporadic beasts and goblins, and to warn when thieves attack, rather than to deal with the entire thieves alone.

The real deal with the large-scale thieves is the Baron's formal troops; the small-scale thieves are dealt with by the village guards of each village.

Watching Ander and Wendell walk out the door, Xavier hesitated for a long time, but still didn't say anything. Finally, he just sighed and stood up and walked out of the house.

————————————

"Uncle Xavier, what did he say?" Robbie was a little nervous.

The importance of becoming a hunter apprentice is self-evident to them, and in order to ensure success, the family has finally paid a lot of money to follow the path of Wendel.

Originally, this matter was pretty sure, but when Lord Ande came back just now, the two girls went up to help. They watched from the side, and they must have left a bad impression on Lord Ande.

However, when he and Harry were embarrassed to come over to ask the two girls to serve as foils for them - they were both peers in the same village, who didn't know who?

Feila's family is already in trouble and she still has to stab her knives in the heart. It is fake for the two boys to say that they are not ashamed and they have no nerve to get in front of the girl.

"Mr. Ender just asked me to take you around and get familiar with the environment first." Xavier had a stern face.

"But Uncle Xavier, we have been here many times. You don't need to be familiar with the environment anymore, right?"

"If you follow me, how can you talk so much?" Xavier reached out and his head broke down.

"Two little bastards, look at Feila and Kelly. The little girl is very good at doing things. You two fools are watching. Now Lord Ander has a bad impression of you.

I tell you that this time, Lord Ander has chosen Kelly and Little Girls Phila. As for you two, it depends on how Lord Ander is in a mood."

Harry and Robbie shouted: "We don't know that it's Lord Ender! If we know, we will definitely go over and help."

As a result, a person was slapped in the head.

"What's the use of saying this now? The old man can be regarded as watching you grow up. I'll advise you, no matter what Lord Ender says, you two fools will listen to me honestly, and you must not have any objections - whether he accepts you two as apprentices or not!"

Xavier was stern, which scared the two boys. This old man was not easy to talk to before, but he wasn't so fierce?

Xavier has been here for too long, and he has watched many children in Wall's village grow up.

That old bastard Wendel was seeking death by himself and offended Ender. He dared to follow him to see the traces left by the thieves. Now he is 80% lying in the same pit as the thieves and fall in love with each other.

But these children can still be rescued, and they can't die in vain.

As for the accusation of Ender, Xavier never thought of it - Ender was a powerful assassin he had never seen before.

Even if such a person is exposed to killing Wendel, he will at most leave Leicester's territory and will never die.

And the greater possibility is to be hired as a subordinate by the lord.

————————————

The sunset shines on the fence outside the hunter's hut, making the plain wooden fence shine.

Four boys and girls stood together and looked forward to it-End and Wendel had been away for a long time, and it was time to come back.

"Fella, Kelly, you guys are so lucky." Harry said enviously.

"Will kindness be rewarded? Hehehe." Kelly smiled as if she had just picked up ten gold coins, and even Fella smiled.

Who would have thought that he would gain such a reward for "seeing lust" for a moment?

Becoming an apprentice to the guard hunter is of course a desperate situation for Phila, but it is meaningless to Kelly.

In addition to completing the tasks assigned by the teacher, the apprentice can also exercise certain powers as the teacher's representative with the teacher's permission.

Not to mention, just the most basic collection and hunting, without paying one-third of the income, can already bring a lot of benefits, not to mention the improvement of social status and connections.

The two girls got the final reward as a runner-up, and this kind of luck is extraordinary

"Look, Lord Ander is back!" Feila shouted.

"Hey, I don't seem to see Uncle Wendell? Didn't he come back with Lord Ander?" Harry was a little confused.

There is only one road from the hunter's inspection area to Wall Village. Is it impossible for Wendel to go back to the village alone?

Watching Ander gradually walk in, the lively Kelly jumped up and met him. Feila followed closely behind. The two boys hesitated for a moment and followed behind to meet him.

"Teacher Ander, welcome you back. We have already handled the leather armor and those swords! According to Mr. Angert's instructions, the sword is placed on the roof platform and the leather armor is placed in the hall." Kelly quickly expressed his merit.

"Well, it's done well." Ender nodded.

"Teacher Ander, how old are you? Feila and I are both thirteen years old." Kelly said even more excitedly after being praised by Ander.

"Well, about sixteen?" Ander couldn't remember whether he was sixteen or fifteen, but he still said it to the big picture in front of the two newly accepted apprentices.

"Ah? Teacher, don't even remember how old you are?"

"Well, I'm an orphan."

"Teacher, you are so pitiful. We will definitely take good care of you! Right, Phila?" Kelly clenched her fist with her right hand to show her biceps to strengthen her speaking strength.

"Well! Teacher Ander, I will definitely repay you!" Feila said seriously.

"Okay, you're still young, what are you going to repay me?" Ender said with a smile.

He touched Feila's little head - the touch felt good, which made Ander feel much better.

To be honest, after dismembering Wendel's body into a big pit and serving the thieves, Ender was in a heavy mood.

This is not because of some guilt, but because Ender feels that his mentality is wrong - there is actually a gentler solution to this matter.

Whether it is using Xavier's influence or his own power as a guard hunter, it is his own freedom to accept whoever he is an apprentice.

The old man Wendel was mostly indirect and had no decisive effect. There was no need for him to kill him.

But everyone has the inertia of thinking. In the past two days, Ende has been so easy to kill. Before he knew it, he has created an idea that "even if murder cannot solve the problem, it can also solve the problem. Even if he does not solve the problem, he will at least give up his breath!"

So before Wendel's words brought out a threat, Ender had no idea. When Wendel relied on being the old man in Wall Village and said the first threatening sentence, Ender's first thought was - "It's a little troublesome, let's kill it."

It is pure nonsense to say that Ender is a murderous intention for Wendel.

An old man who is not threatening is not worthy of Ender's intention to kill—but here's the problem. Ender killed Wendel like dust off his body, and he didn't take it seriously at all.

In the end, in order to prevent others from seeing the time of Wendel's death, which was too long apart from the thief's death, Ender had to dismember the old man and then throw him into the pit. Ender only realized this problem - he was too careless of human life, he was not like this before!

This is not a good sign.
