Kapitel 74: Vigil

Lin Mu felt strange about the clerk's words. He thought that he may be lying at first, but then looking at his face made him think differently. Though he thought he should listen to the complete story first.

"The report about the spirit beast was given by a mercenary to the second vice-captain. The second vice-captain thus issued the order to close the town and the routes leading to it. But later, when he didn't return, the other guards went to talk with the town head about the mercenary who gave the report. The town head told them that the mercenary who reported it disappeared too and they can't find him." The clerk explained.

"Is that why mercenaries are standing outside the town center?" Lin Mu asked.

"Yeah, they're angry that more of their mercenaries disappeared and the town head is not responding to their complaints." The clerk answered.

"And what does the second vice-captain look like? Because I don't think I've seen him before." Lin Mu asked his main question.
