The hero I support will definitely defeat the devil

What right does she have to worry about this?

Biting his lip, Awu spoke.

"Is there any way I can get better immediately? I'm not well off financially and can't afford to rest for a month."

"this...."

Meililu had tried her best to consider Awu, but as a special existence among the giants, she actually had no concept of money, so she forgot one thing, that is, the real low-level adventurers would never consider the problem of healing potions, because that was something they could not afford from the beginning. What they needed to consider was the problem of living in the White Tower area.

"I've seen you."

At this time, Ilsa suddenly spoke.

"Ilsa has seen her?"

Lisha looked at Ilsa curiously.

"You worked in Bestie's store, right? I saw you there."

Ilsa said.

At first she just felt that Awu looked familiar, but after careful recollection, Ilsa remembered that she seemed to have seen Bestie once when she went to Bestie's shop.

If it weren't for Ilsa's excellent memory, she probably wouldn't have been able to remember it. After all, it was just a chance encounter and they only met once.

"what?"

Awu opened his mouth wide.

So they know Boss Bestie?

"Would you like to come and work at Dragon's Breath for a while?"

Lisha invited Awu.

"Dragon's Breath?!"

Awu had naturally heard of Dragon's Breath. Even a low-level adventurer like her had heard of the name of Dragon's Breath.

Rather, it was precisely because she was a low-level adventurer that she was so familiar with the Breath of Dragon.

After all, the order in Baishi Town is as orderly as it is now, and Dragon's Breath is at least half responsible for it.

Therefore, many mid- and low-level adventurers admire Olivia, the proprietress of Dragon's Breath.

"Bestie's shop was opened with the support of Sister Olivia."

Lisha explained to Awu.

"But I don't know anything."

Awu lowered his head with some inferiority.

As an adventurer, she knew very little.

Although he is a swordsman, apart from running fast, his sword skills are only proficient, far from being proficient. He doesn't even know a few decent martial arts moves, and his breathing techniques are only at the entry level after some time. Compared with professionals of the same level, he is relatively poor.

Although she had worked in many jobs, she didn't learn much because she was always changing jobs. She could only say that she knew a little bit about everything, but when it came to really doing the work, she would know nothing.

"I'll talk to Bestie. You can be a clerk in her store. That way you'll get paid more."

Ilsa shook her head at Lisha.

Then he said to Awu.

"Thanks..."

Awu breathed a sigh of relief.

The compensation given by boss Bestie is considered relatively high for jobs of the same level.

If they worked longer hours and were paid more, then if they saved up a little, it would be enough to pay for Kate's medicine and their living expenses.

After all, it's only a month. If things don't work out, she can just sell Kate's leather armor since he won't need it anyway.

"Let's go back first and put..."

Lisha was halfway through her words when she realized that she hadn't asked Awu's name yet.

"I'm Awu."

Awu said his name.

"Well, send Awu back, and then send these three pieces of trash to the Adventurer's Guild as well."

Lisha said this and kicked the adventurer at her feet with a look of disgust.

Because of Awu's injury, she needed someone to hold her to prevent her leg injury from getting worse. In the end, Angela was chosen to hold Awu and walk back.

Merilu is not suitable because of her height. As an elf, Alan doesn't like to contact strangers, and her strength and physical strength are also a bit low, so she is not suitable to be with one person.

Lisha and Ilsa had something to discuss, so the matter finally fell on Angela.

Ilsa thought Awu would be a little unhappy, after all, Angela was an orc.

But Awu didn't seem to dislike Angelina. Instead, he had a pleasant chat with her.

Ilsa didn't know that because of her adoptive father Kate, Awu actually liked orcs better than humans.

After all, she was an abandoned baby and was only able to survive because she was picked up by her adoptive father Kate, who was a kitten.

On the way back, Elsa asked Melulu to give the three of them some treatment to prevent them from dying from their serious injuries. Then Elsa used some tricks to wake up one of the three, scared him a little, and asked a lot of questions.

After asking, Ilsa frowned.

"what happened?"

Lisha, who was walking in front, looked at Ilsa, who had just interrogated the adventurer and knocked him unconscious.

"Things are not simple."

Ilsa glanced at Awu who was chatting with Angela, then turned to Lisha and said.

"These three guys are not just robbers. Someone hired them to catch Awu."

"Catch Awu?"

When Lisha heard what Ilsa said, she understood why Ilsa said that things were not simple.

Because Awu is a Hematite-rank adventurer, three Hematite-rank adventurers were sent to capture Awu, carrying crossbows and arrows coated with paralyzing drugs, which obviously meant to capture him alive.

If the adventurer was really a black-hearted robber, he would not leave any survivors and the paralyzing drug would be replaced with a truly deadly poison.

"But they don't know who the employer is because the other party does not show up and the transaction is only done through a middleman."

Ilsa felt that they seemed to have encountered another trouble, and it was a big one.

Chapter 257 A Moment of Life and Death

"With this style of behavior, could it be that Awu has offended some nobles or merchants?"

Ilsa made a reasonable guess.

The reason why it is not said that it offended fellow adventurers is that if it were so, there would be no such thing as hiring. The adventurers would find a chance to solve the matter themselves, and most likely they would do it in secret. In this way, as long as it is done covertly enough, it can be turned into a missing case with no source to be found.

Only nobles and merchants would use other people's hands to deal with their enemies or people who offended them, and they did so mainly to avoid dirtying their own hands. After all, no matter how dirty some nobles and merchants were in secret, on the surface, they still pretended to be good.

"Hard to say."

Lisha had no idea about this either.

There are too many possibilities to think of all at once.

"But should we let Wu hide in Dragon's Breath for a while?"

Lisha felt that since she had saved Awu, it would be better to help him to the end. Otherwise, given Awu's situation, there would be no difference between helping halfway and not helping him at all. It would be better not to help him from the beginning.

"You should ask Sister Olivia about this."

Ilsa knew that the final decision would be made by Olivia, the owner of Dragon's Breath. After all, they were only staying at Dragon's Breath temporarily, and if they wanted to bring someone back to live, they still had to ask the owner's opinion.

If Olivia disagrees, they can only temporarily place Awu in Bestie's shop or other hidden and safe places.

"But before that, I'm going to ask Awu what's going on."

As Ilsa spoke, she slowed down her pace and walked side by side with Awu and Angela.

"Awu, do you have any idea about the origins of these people?"

"No, I don't know why they arrested me."

Awu really doesn’t know.

She had no idea what they liked about her.

Even though she looked somewhat cute, that was not enough motivation for these people.

Because as the strength of the professionals increases, their figures and appearances will gradually improve, and none of the professionals above the gold level are ugly. Because they have held an awakening ceremony, the essence of life has been sublimated, and they have truly transcended the mundane world.

If Lisha and the others' appearance scored above 90 points, then Awu's was probably just over 70 points.

It's kind of cute, but that's all, and it won't attract these vicious criminals at all.

"You are being targeted. Think carefully, have you offended anyone recently?"

Ilsa asked calmly.

"I don't have any...I don't think so...I can't think of it..."

Awu racked her brains for a long time, but couldn't think of anyone she had offended recently.

She is a typical lone wolf and seldom communicates with other adventurers. It is impossible for her to offend anyone, especially Awu herself, who will try her best to avoid such situations. After all, as a lone wolf, she knows that if she goes against other adventurers, she will definitely be the one who suffers.

"I understand, but you have to be careful, because the people behind these three guys may attack you again."

Ilsa instructed Awu.

"Will they attack my family?"

The first person Awu thought of was his adoptive father Kate.

"possible."

Ilsa nodded.

This is very possible, after all, these villains have no moral bottom line.

"My adoptive father is now at the Pinewood Inn in White Rock Town."

Awu's face showed an anxious expression.

When she thought about Kate's current state, she felt panic in her heart.

Not to mention a Red Iron-level professional, even a professional who has just reached the formal level can now easily kill Kate, who is almost dying of old age.

“Lisha!”

Ilsa called Lisha over and told her what happened just now.

"I understand. Leave it to me."

Lisha then asked about the exact location of the Awu Pinewood Inn.

After getting the specific address, Lisha closed her eyes and disappeared in a flash.

"Disappeared?!"

Awu was startled.

Is it some kind of invisibility technique?

It can't be the legendary space transfer, right?

"With Lisha here, there won't be any problems."

Ilsa said confidently.

......

Kate knew that her time was running out.

But for the sake of his lovely adopted daughter, he still insists on living until now.

With a weak body and a will that is constantly being worn away, every minute and every second is torture.

But Kate had no intention of ending her life.
