I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

A burly mercenary was walking down the road, laughing and talking to his companion, when suddenly a fruit pit covered in saliva hit him in the face, and his face instantly darkened.

The burly mercenary was nearly 1.9 meters tall, clad in heavy armor, and carried a large axe on his back, looking fierce and menacing.

Upon seeing this, passersby quickly dispersed to the side.

Anno, who had just taken another fruit and was still munching on it, suddenly found himself surrounded by empty space, making him particularly noticeable.

Upon seeing this, the burly mercenary and his companions immediately strode over aggressively.

Anno was dressed in simple civilian clothes, with a sword tied to his waist, but he had no protective gear at all.

Although he looked young, he showed no sign of panic despite being surrounded by a group of people, which made him seem unlike an ordinary person.

The burly man observed Anuo for a while, then frowned and asked, "Kid, have we met before?"

Anno shook his head, saying casually, "Never seen it before!"

"Are we business competitors?"

"No, not at all!"

The burly man took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and held up the fruit pit in his hand, asking one last question: "So, you've had enough of living, do you want to die?"

Whoosh!

The moment the burly man finished speaking, his companions drew their weapons and aimed them at Anno.

These people, and the burly man, all had a wolf tattooed on their clothes!

Although fighting is prohibited within the city.

However, the Jackal Mercenary Group still holds some sway in Sandbir.

The city defense forces will at most impose a fine on a young man who deliberately provoked the jackals.

For a strong man, it doesn't hurt or itch at all.

The burly man thought Anno would be intimidated, but the latter nonchalantly munched on fruit and said, "Of course I haven't lived enough. It's your commander who wants to die."

Before the burly man could reply, Anno continued, "Go tell your Commander Dart that his master has arrived!"

"court death!"

The burly man was instantly enraged upon hearing Anno's words.

In Sambir, no one has ever dared to insult Jackals or Commander Dart like this!

With a wave of his hand, his henchmen immediately shouted and threw punches at Anno.

But in the next instant, all the figures were sent flying backward and crashed in the middle of the road.

The burly man immediately realized he had met his match.

He reached behind his back, trying to grab the battle axe.

Pfft!

A sharp blade cuts through flesh and blood.

The burly man's arm was pierced directly by the longsword in Anno's hand.

The intense pain instantly caused a layer of cold sweat to cover the burly man's forehead.

Anno drew his longsword, kicked the burly man away, and continued eating fruit, saying, "It seems Dart really doesn't want to live anymore."

Although I never intended to do anything to him in the first place.

But since he, like William, pledged allegiance to me in the land of the setting sun, he should keep his word.

After the fall of Sunset City, this guy actually took advantage of the chaos to run back to the Duchy of Aurel.

I hate people who break their promises.

William Dart.

Both of them were peak sixth-tier mercenaries.

Their respective mercenary groups are the two strongest mercenary groups in Sandbill.

Previously, Gilbert, the former lord of Sunset City, had spent a large sum of money to hire the two men from Aurel in order to explore Hidden Dragon City.

After Anno and Gilbert fell out, William and Dart immediately pledged allegiance to Anno in order to save their lives.

After Sunset City fell to the sea creatures, William returned to Zambia and, with his family, traveled to Xuelong City, keeping his oath of allegiance to Anno.

But Dart cleverly stayed in Zambia.

After William left, Dart's mercenary group became the dominant force.

It even reached the point where the Lord of Zambia was unwilling to offend him.

"Who exactly are you?"

The burly man clutched his bleeding arm and looked at Anno with a horrified expression.

He's a level 33, tier 6 warrior.

They couldn't even see Anno's movements clearly.

Although the other party looked young, it was clear that he was not someone he could afford to offend.

I don't want to repeat myself.

Anno threw the leftover fruit pit at the burly man's face again, then said, "Take me to Dart!"

"The commander..."

The burly man originally wanted to stall for time and deceive Anno by saying that Dart had gone out on a mission.

But what Anno said next terrified him.

"If you can't find Dart within an hour, then you have no reason to live."

As he spoke, Anno raised his blood-stained sword, glanced at the burly man lying on the ground, and revealed an evil smile.

He's not joking!

The burly man shuddered when he saw that devilish smile.

He really will kill me.

He really dared to kill me inside the city!

Even when facing Commander Dart, who had already advanced to the seventh rank, he did not feel this kind of pressure.

This young man in front of me might be even stronger than the regimental commander!

"Sir, please come this way. I'll take you to Commander Dart!"

Between loyalty and life, the strongman chose the latter.

Since this troublemaker was caused by Dart, he shouldn't be the one to pay with his life.

The strong man wanted to live.

He did the right thing!

So, amidst the shocked gazes of a group of passersby, the burly man, completely disregarding his injured arm, diligently led the way for Anuo.

"Who on earth is this person?!"

"Whoever it is, he's finished! He offended the Jackal Mercenary Group and thinks he can just run away?"

"Did you hear that? He said he was Dart's master!"

"This young man is too arrogant. Dart is already at the seventh rank, and even the lord doesn't want to provoke him. For him to say something like that is simply courting death!"

Hearing the passersby's discussion, the two soldiers who had rushed over exchanged a glance, then turned and ran towards the lord's castle.

"Sir, our mercenary group's base is just ahead!"

Just as the burly man finished speaking with a smug grin, he saw a large group of fully armed mercenaries rush out of the camp.

The leader was a level 39, tier 6 hunter, riding a one-eyed demon wolf.

Some of the mercenaries who had just been knocked down by Anno had already taken a detour and run back to inform the other mercenaries in the group that someone was causing trouble.

The group of mercenaries who came out at this moment were there to teach Anno a lesson.

The sixth-tier hunter pointed at the burly man and roared, "Labu, you traitor, I'll settle accounts with you later!"

Upon hearing this, the burly man's face darkened.

After joining the Jackal Mercenary Group, the two men, being of similar strength, competed for the position of second-in-command within the group.

Now that this has happened, he probably has no chance of getting the second-in-command position.

After speaking of Laboon, the sixth-tier hunter turned his gaze to Anno and said arrogantly, "Who are you? Although Laboon is a piece of trash, since you were able to subdue him in one move, you must be no ordinary person. However, daring to provoke us Jackal Mercenaries..."

Just as the hunter was still rambling on, Anno suddenly shouted at the building next to him, which was the mercenary group's base, "Dart, now that you've seen me, why are you hiding?"

Do you still want to run away?

In a room on the second floor of the Jackal Mercenary Group's base, Dart, looking panicked, could be seen through the window.

He knows Anno!

He even said that when he came back, he always had nightmares about Anno coming to kill him.

The situation only eased slightly after he advanced to the seventh rank under immense pressure.

However, he knew very well that even if he advanced to the seventh rank, he would still be nothing compared to Anuo!

"He came to see me! He actually came to see me!"

In a state of panic, Dart had only one thought in his mind.

run!

But as soon as he turned around, he heard Anno say those words outside the window.

"We've been...discovered!"

Dart's back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.
