Chapter 37

He pushed open the door of the tavern.

The noise, the pungent smell of alcohol, and the stench of sweat made Ye Chen a little dizzy.

Right at this moment, a wine bottle directly smashed toward Ye Chen’s face.

His pale golden eyes flashed slightly. Then, he silently tilted his head and dodged the incoming wine bottle.

The wine bottle landed on the door frame behind him, causing glass shards to fly everywhere.

Ye Chen lightly swayed his body and dodged all the flying glass shards.

Only then did he frown and look in the direction where the wine bottle had come from.

In front of the bar counter, there were two burly men throwing wine bottles at each other. They were also cursing offensive words. Then, the two started to fight.

The bottle just now was thrown by one of the drunk men.

The people around them did not have any intention of stopping the fight. Instead, they surrounded them in the middle and started to cheer.

Ye Chen naturally would not run over and ask, “Why did you throw the bottle at me?”

Instead, he went around the crowd and went to the other side of the bar counter.

He took out a gold coin and said to the bartender, “Give me the strongest bottle of wine.”

The bartender hurriedly put away the gold coin. Then, after confirming that it was real, he quickly turned around and helped him bring the best liquor in the bar.

“Sir, please enjoy your drink.”

Ye Chen nodded slightly and picked it up to take a sip.

The thick liquor was poured in, and Ye Chen only frowned slightly.

The current him was not the scientist who would choke after drinking a bit of liquor.

With his current physical fitness, even if he drank all the liquor in the tavern, he might not get drunk.

Just as Ye Chen was thinking about how to speak…

Not far away, a figure sitting in a booth suddenly waved at him.

Seeing that, Ye Chen walked over with the bottle in his hand.

“Please take a seat.”

A beautiful female voice came out from under the hood.

Ye Chen raised his eyebrows and sat down in front of her, looking at her with confusion.

From his angle, he could only see her delicate white chin, not even her lips.

However, Ye Chen guessed that the woman in front of him should be pretty good-looking.

“Why did you call me here?”

The woman in the hood shook her head.

She said softly, “Don’t ask too much. If you don’t want anything to happen, you can follow me later.”

Ye Chen looked at her with a smile.

He took a sip of the liquor and said, “What if I say no?”

The woman said impatiently, “Then you can just wait to be killed and have your money taken away!”

Ye Chen was slightly surprised.

The woman’s pleasant voice was mixed with a hint of mockery as she said softly.

“You, a commoner, carrying such a big bag of gold coins, buying wine at a bar in a small town.”

“Don’t you know how attractive you are?”

“Do you think you are strolling around in the capital’s tavern street? Are you stupid?”

Ye Chen rubbed his chin.

He had not expected this.

After all, he had gotten used to it in that extremely safe country in his previous life.

Now, he was looking down at himself.

He was wearing the clothes of a commoner that he had just stolen. The gold coins that he had taken from those human corpses were all casually stuffed into the bag on his chest.

As he walked, he could hear an excellent ‘ding dong’ sound.

No matter how he looked at it, he was just a silly fat sheep…

He coughed awkwardly.

Ye Chen nodded slightly. “Oh, I did not expect that. Thank you for your reminder.”

After saying that, he was about to get up and walk towards the bar again, planning to continue asking for more information.

As for the fact that there were humans who would rob him?

Of course, Ye Chen did not care about that. He even wanted those humans to attack him so that he could kill them and devour them without any psychological burden…

Who knew that after taking two steps, Ye Chen’s wrist would be grabbed by that woman.

She softly reprimanded him in disbelief, “Are you a fool? Or do you want to die?”

Ye Chen looked at the ‘warm-hearted’ woman helplessly, not knowing what to say.

In the end, he sighed and sat down on the wooden chair.

He said, “Alright, I will ask anyone. What is your name?”

The hooded woman answered unhappily, “Lina, what do you want to ask? Before my companions come, you can ask if you want to.”

Ye Chen took another sip of liquor. Then, after thinking for a while, he asked, “Who is the leader of Eagle Nest territory? Where is his mansion?”

“Why are you asking this? Do you want to be his servant? No, you have so many gold coins… oh right, where did you get your gold coins? Did you steal them? Or did you find some ruins nearby?”

Ye Chen was stunned.

He did not expect that he would only ask two questions.

Not only did he not answer, he even asked him so many questions right away…

Ye Chen said with a bit of a headache, “Tell me first, then I will tell you.”

Lina stuck out her tongue and said in a low voice, “The leader of Eagle Nest territory is called Wheeler. But, of course, he lives in Eagle Nest City. So, alright, it is your turn to answer.”

Ye Chen smiled.

After saying ‘thank you’, he stood up and walked out of the bar.

Lina was stunned. She would never have thought that after Ye Chen got his answer, he would turn around and leave!

This was… this was too infuriating!

Looking at the bar, a few people had already stood up and followed him out.

Although Lina was angry, she still picked up the sword beside her and chased after him.

Soon, she found Ye Chen, who had already been surrounded by five or six people, in a small alley on the side of the bar.

“Kid, hand over the gold coins!”

“Hahaha! I did not expect to get such a big reward.”

“Give us the gold coins! How did you get the gold coins? Tell us honestly. We will consider leaving you with a whole body.”

Ye Chen looked at the six drunkards who were shouting at him, his face full of disdain.

Therefore, he said with some dissatisfaction, “Hey, hey, hey! Can’t you take a shower before you go out? How can I eat you guys like this…”

Before he could finish his sentence.

A clear and angry shout came from the entrance of the tavern.

At the same time, a sharp sword that was shining with a cold light was nailed to the wooden wall by the side.

“Get lost, all of you! He is a member of our blood ring mercenary group!”

The six drunkards were shocked. They looked at the hooded woman who was rushing at them and wanted to argue.

However, before the leader could say anything, a small foot was already imprinted on his face.

Broken teeth mixed with blood sprayed out.

The leader got kicked far away and fell to the ground.

“Take him and get out of here!”

Lina yelled, and the other five quickly ran away with their people.

Only then did Lina pull out her sword. She glared at Ye Chen and said, “Huh! What did I say? You are crazy! Let’s go, I will take you home!”

Ye Chen spread out his hands speechlessly.

Right then, he was sure that this girl called Lina was, to put it nicely, a natural warm-hearted person.

To put it bluntly, she was just stupid….
