Volume Dragon: Start by obtaining the Infinity Gems

Chapter 65: Boy Under the Moonlight
Colette stood outside the living room somewhat nervously, waiting for the dragon to wake up.

She bit her fingers nervously and walked to the restaurant to make herself a cup of honey tea. The warm tea soothed her nerves. She walked quietly to the chair and sat down gently.

The cold iron had been returned by Mensa, but her dereliction of duty still existed. Colette clearly remembered what the dragon said when he bestowed the dragon blood ceremony on the four members of her team.

"You are too weak, so grow up, my followers, and don't let me down."

The clock in the living room ticked away bit by bit, and the night passed.

At dawn, the first ray of sunlight shone through the stained glass windows of the living room, refracting dreamy colorful light and shining on Nemesis' eyelids.

He woke up.

"Um Colette, are you drinking honey tea? My favorite, make me a cup."

Colette stood up in a panic: "Yes, I'll be right there."

The girl skillfully took out the quilt, poured honey into it, and then added Nemesis' favorite Tumis black tea, and mixed them all.

Nemesis changed back into human form and took the teacup handed to him by the girl. The warm and sweet tea flowed down his throat, followed by a slight bitterness.

"How long have I slept? Colette."

"Ten days, Master." Colette answered somewhat helplessly.

Nemesis narrowed his eyes, took another sip of tea, and asked casually, "You seem a little nervous, Colette? What happened?"

Colette was silent for a while, then told everything that had happened in one breath. She lowered her head, her heartbeat slightly faster, waiting for the scolding from her master.

"Charis Rosa?" Nemesis rarely went berserk. He just took another sip of honey tea and pondered the protagonist of the story in a low voice.

It was that Tok again, and he still obeyed the orders of the successor of the Rosa family.

Nemesis, who had just had a long and satisfying sleep and was in a good mood, now had enough patience to think about how to deal with it.

That Tok has to die, that's the first thing.

Chrys Rosa will follow in the footsteps of his loyal followers, but Mende Rosa and the large number of guards in the castle are a problem that requires long-term planning.

"Owner?"

Seeing no sound for a long time, Colette was a little confused.

Nemesis came to his senses and did not blame Colette, because he knew that the gap between Tok and Clangedin was huge and it was not his fault.

In fact, this time he would take matters into his own hands and quiet that annoying flea.

At night, in the outer city of Degen City, at the Tok Mercenary Group camp.

The so-called mercenary group, different from the adventure group, is usually established by one or several middle and high-level professionals, who gather a large number of local ordinary thugs and low-level professionals to surround themselves and form a combat group.

Mercenary groups are usually stationed in a city and radiate the mercenary business around the city. They do not have much conflict of interest with the adventuring groups that travel around the country.

It’s just that the Iris Adventure Group is rather special. They have established a foothold in Degen City through the Yorozuya, and with the powerful strength of Colette, they can barely protect themselves in the Tok Mercenary Group.

To put it bluntly, a mercenary group is a gang with a large number of local thugs used as cannon fodder.

For this reason, the Tok Mercenary Group bought a large piece of land in the outer city area and used it as their camp.

In the center of the camp is a huge training ground for mercenaries to train. Besides this, there is a magnificently decorated reception hall.

The mercenaries' residences are in the basement of the reception hall. The huge underground space accommodates hundreds of people from the Tok Mercenary Group.

At this time, most of the mercenaries in the camp had fallen asleep, the training ground was empty, and only a few patrolling mercenaries were on duty in the watchtower outside the camp.

Tok was in his office at this time, looking through a list.

"There are still two beggars on East Street in the outer city. The five outsiders that Fedri had been following can also be rounded up. We are still three short of this batch." He looked at it for a while, then threw the list on the table viciously, pinching his eyebrows with both hands. His brows were furrowed so tightly that he could kill a fly.

"This is a damn job, it's not for a human being to do. What kind of crazy medicine did the Baron take to trust that lunatic from Sel so much?"

He stared into the void with awe, and hypocritically begged for God's forgiveness in his heart.

Suddenly, huge explosions were heard from above, the ceiling kept shaking, dust fell from the air, and the books on the table fell to the ground due to the vibration.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" A panicked voice came from the corridor.

Tok opened the door with a gloomy face, grabbed a mercenary by the collar, and asked coldly with an expressionless face: "What happened?"

The mercenary said tremblingly, "It's an explosion. Sir, the ground was hit by an explosion. Initial suspicion is that it was caused by alchemical gunpowder or several spellcasters."

"Damn it!"

Tok hurried back to the room, put on the white magic armor, picked up the hammer and hurried towards the exit.

Most of the resting mercenaries had gathered here at this time, and the stairs leading to the ground had been blocked by rubble.

"Get out of my way!" Tok shouted as he pushed aside several mercenaries who were blocking his way.

He walked over to the gravel, the muscles in his arms swelling abnormally.

"Hoo!!"

With a roar, Tok swung the hammer in his hand with tremendous force at the rubble, which was broken into even smaller pieces by the terrifying force.

Part of the blocked passage was immediately cleared, and Tok swung the hammer again, continuously clearing the rubble, and the blocked passage was finally revealed.

"Everyone, get out!" Tok ordered coldly. Many mercenaries who were frightened by the explosion had to grope their way to the ground through the dark passage.

When Toke arrived at the first floor of the reception hall, his eyes were bloodshot.

He was heartbroken to find that the reception hall he had built at great expense of gold coins had been reduced to ruins. The bright Selune was hanging in the sky, and the mysterious moonlight was shining on the people in the ruins.

"Who! Who is it!" Tok asked angrily.

"Boss, look!" A mercenary pointed to a place not far away.

Tok looked over and his expression became serious.

The sky was covered with darkness, and the moonlight covered the earth like white frost and snow. On the watchtower, a silver-haired young man in a black robe stood in the sky.

He was holding a book in his hand, his long silver hair cascading to his feet, the gold-rimmed glasses on his face glowed faintly in the moonlight, and a pure black five-pointed star accessory hung on his chest.

"Tok?" the boy asked, tilting his head.

Tok said in a deep voice: "I am. Your Excellency, come here tonight and destroy my camp. What on earth do you want to do?!"

The silver-haired boy casually flipped through the book in his hand and replied, "You've caused me a lot of trouble, Tok."

"Disrupting my business, robbing my property, and humiliating my men."

"My followers have proposed to me that they will assassinate you for me, cut your throat in your sleep, and kill your beloved relatives so that they will accompany you to the Nine Hells."

"I vetoed it."

He closed the book, and his dim yellow pupils looked into Toke's eyes. At Toke's shuddering expression, his pupils instantly turned vertical.

"Because I'm going to finish you off myself, bug."
