An originally difficult matter ended peacefully because of the unexpected appearance of a stranger. Lin thought about the characteristics of the noble boy and the attitude of the soldiers towards him, and thought that such a person should not be difficult to find. He decided to ask Kaya to use the forum index to find out if there was any information about the other party after going back. At least you have to know where the other person is coming from.

Another consideration is, is it necessary to continue to hang the bounty on the demon moth species?

With the diversity of insects, Lin believed that there would definitely be moth species that he had not collected, which would be more suitable for making magic silk, but he didn't know where in the corner of the land. However, except for the initial period when new moth species could be found, all that comes to my door now are troubles and no new surprises.

Moreover, breeding operations have now begun, and even cross-breeding in Finland has begun. Judging from the current results, the silk cocoons spun by several species of magic moth larvae already meet the material standards that they have preset.

The reason why it has not been cultivated on a large scale is because I want to find out if there are better materials and matching methods. At least after completing all the existing breeding plans, make a comparison before deciding on the final moth species.

In this case, the need to find new moth species does not seem to be so great.

So, cancel the reward?

Because he was considering matters related to the business of the Adventurer's Guild, Lin did not leave directly. While he was thinking, the girl in charge of the counter led a man over cautiously.

When she turned around, she saw that she was a mature woman who was dressed quite simply and looked a little weathered, but she still couldn't hide her charm. However, the thick clothes made it difficult to tell whether the figure was plump or fat. A dirty, dark face, coupled with a few strands of untied hair hanging to the side, gave people a weather-beaten look.

They have all been brought here, no matter how slow they are, they should know who they are looking for. So Lin asked: "Who is this?"

The girl at the counter introduced: "Mr. Tripwood, this is Vanna. I have news about your bounty mission. I hope to get some rewards from you."

Seeing the woman rubbing the apron in front of her uneasily, with nothing beside her, Lin had a confused look on her face. Because the bounty mission he posted requires adventurers to directly capture live moth seeds to submit the mission, and those who only have information will be ignored. Such a requirement is clearly stated in the description of the bounty mission.

This is to prevent someone from coming to claim the reward after only hearing hearsay information. On the other hand, as long as there is news on the forum, you can basically find it by relying on Kaya's forum index. The information collected by those above was sufficient and detailed enough, so Lin Ke never thought that he would also need to obtain information from other people.

Of course the girl in charge of the counter was aware of someone's bounty request, but she said anxiously: "Sir, I know you always ask for the target to be captured directly and handed over to you. But Sister Wana's husband was killed more than a year ago. She died during the adventure, leaving her alone with a five-year-old child, living a very hard life. Their family all came to live in the Holy City from other places, and now that something like this happened, even the travel expenses to return to their hometown were lost. No. Sister Wana is here to help with cleaning now and then, but our situation is not very good either."

The girl flattened her mouth in embarrassment. In fact, it's because she doesn't know how to run a business? Why is it that the signboard of the Adventurer's Guild is clearly displayed here? But the popularity is sparse, and she can't afford to support even one more person. Is this the case for the mercenary guild? I don’t know; but the adventurer guild is clearly facing the rapid expansion of its base and malnutrition everywhere.

"So, sir? Can you listen to Sister Wana's information and give her a reward? Any amount is fine."

In these days, there are basically no scammers who rely on tears to defraud charity. And the story the girl told is not a special case, but can happen everywhere, even more tragic ones are out of the question. It is too difficult to live well in this world. Don't look at someone's life as a child, it's because the hard days of wallowing in the mud have been skipped.

Of course, someone is not the great benevolent and compassionate Guanshiyin Bodhisattva, who sheds blood and sweat in vain, but also wants to transform the lost land into a better world. But when it happened? Just to prevent myself from becoming the legendary Virgin Bitch, it was wrong to say no to helping. Everyone has a sense of compassion. Not to mention the orphans and widowers...

Of course there can't be any evil intentions. There is a lich at home, which can be rewarded and manipulated. Besides, this person is an otaku who traveled through time, not a cowherd who traveled through time. Plus, after forty, my waist is not good enough...

There was no need to say anything more. After Lin asked the other party to sit down, he said: "Since you have the information I need? Then please tell me. I will pay you according to the content, so that's no problem."

"Yes, sir, there is no problem with this." Wana, who was sitting down, was encouraged by the girl who had always taken good care of herself, and said, "My hometown is on the southern border, on the border of the Khorasan Marquis territory, which is adjacent to a forest. There is a king-level monster inside, which is a huge magic moth."

A king-level monster not only refers to the most powerful hunter in the region, but also means that the secular government recognizes that monster as the ruler of the territory.

Regarding such news, Lin frowned and said: "I have known about the rumors about a king-level magic moth in the south a long time ago. If it is just a rumor, it is of little value."

Varna, who was questioned, said anxiously: "No, sir, I have seen that demon moth king with my own eyes. Its wings are spread out and are as big as a lake. Its front feet are like a mantis's sickle, and the patterns on its wings are Like a flame, it will sway its flame body with every flapping of its wings. It will also emit a very sharp chirping sound, and the sound can be transmitted tens of kilometers (km) away. Everyone who sees it will feel aroused. I feel a sense of awe. My hometown is close to the edge of the forest. There, we do not regard the Demon Moth King as a natural disaster. It has another meaning for us, and is our patron saint."

Seeing Wana's serious look, Lin couldn't help but smile. Said: "If it is really your patron saint, then tell me this news, is it really okay? Maybe it will die in my hands because of this."

After hearing this, the mature woman in front of her looked a little uneasy. She returned to her original timid appearance and said, "I heard that you just want to capture the demon moths alive, not to kill them, so I made up my mind to tell you."

Although I didn't kill it directly, I was prepared to kill its descendants for generations to come. In this case, someone did not say it out loud. He just thought about the authenticity of the witness information. If this is true, it is not worthless news.

While thinking about it, he casually summoned Shakiri. The sudden appearance of the weapon in the magician's hand startled the two women present.

But the girl who works in the guild is okay, because she remembered the information about the magician, which only confirmed one point. But Vana was really frightened. Her vision and the world she was exposed to were not enough to understand this magician. So she was thinking anxiously about where she had offended the other party.

Of course, the purpose of summoning someone cut out of the box was to confirm something, using a relatively rough method.

The communication in consciousness was quick and secret. Lin Ping held up the box and said to the mature woman in front of him: "If you have paid attention to my rumors, you should know that I have a weapon that can read minds. This sword is that sword. But you don't have to worry too much, it will only read what you are thinking about now. If you really see the Moth King with your own eyes, just try your best to recall the situation that day, and then hold this sword. "

What someone didn't make clear was that what Haggiri knew was more than just the memories he was desperately thinking about. Instead, every thought that passes through your mind will be captured by it. Not talking about this, I actually want to find out the purpose behind the other party.

However, holding a sword that could read minds really made Vana hesitate. Is there something wrong with the other party, or something else? Lin looked at the mature woman in front of him and stretched out his hand to the blade of the sword tremblingly, knowing that the other party had misunderstood something. He retracted his hand and said: "You don't need to hold the blade to cut blood or anything, you can just hold the hilt. Don't get me wrong."

Vana breathed a sigh of relief and carefully held the box. Because she didn't know what to do, she took the weapon, which was not heavy at all, and stood in front of the sword. As she moved, the white flames of the sword leaked out, which was so beautiful that it actually made her lose her mind for a moment, and she also had some random thoughts in her mind.

After a while, Lin took Shakiri back. It was rare that the sword didn't speak today. As soon as the two parties combined their minds, they used whiteboard techniques to outline the scene in Vana's memory.

It was a lake in the forest, and there was a huge moth on the lake. With its wings spread out, it is actually bigger than the big lake below. If the trees beside the lake are used as a reference, it is estimated that the wingspan of this giant moth is nearly two hundred meters, and its body length is also nearly a hundred meters. A standard behemoth.

Although the picture is only composed of simple lines, Lin turned the scene in his memory into a dynamic and continuously displayed it. It's just that in terms of fps, it's not high, just a little worse than page-turning animation. The traces of freeze-frame are very obvious, but it also develops from static pictures to dynamic ones.

The Moth King in Vana's memory was exactly as she described it. There were even more details that she didn't describe, but they were also very important clues.

For example, the huge Demon Moth King's wingbeat frequency is not very high. It can even be said that it is so slow that it is impossible to explain it with physics as to how it stays in the air.

It can be seen from this that the magical power possessed by this demon moth king is amazing. Only in this way can one use magic to maintain the state of flying in the air. Otherwise, if this demon moth king uses the flapping frequency of ordinary insects, the hurricane caused by flapping its wings alone can be called a flying natural disaster.

In addition, the pair of mantis-like sickle forelimbs don’t look friendly at all. This shows to some extent that this Demon Moth King is not afraid of melee combat.

However, the body structure is not like that of a falcon, which means that there should not be any attack methods such as dive attacks; even if there is, the speed should not be fast. But this judgment still needs to be reserved, because I don't have many opportunities to fight flying monsters, and I am not very familiar with their magic skills. Especially the opponent is not an ordinary bird, but a flying insect.
