After leaving the team, the adventurer ladies regretted it deeply

From the available information, it was known that the owner of the small Western-style house was a severe social phobic and a poor person who scraped by making handcrafted dolls. The food they could afford to eat was probably nothing more than rotten cabbage.

And this meat feast, which even adventurers envied, could she reject it?

Eating meat fulfilled the need for sustenance in real life, while selling her dolls at a high price was her blueprint for the future.

While grilling the meat, Lin Da loudly extolled the benefits of joining his adventure team:

"Join Phoenix Tail Flower, and you'll be escorted to the tenth floor of the World Tree. In three years, you'll be stable at thirty floors, with high salary and benefits. The base pay is one hundred Gold Coins, with extra for entering the Mystic Realm;

"Equipment, accommodation, and meals are all inclusive, plus you'll get a Town Portal Scroll. You're only required to follow the team leader's orders;

"Join the team now and you get ten days of luxurious feasts, sleep on a luxury bed, and ride in a luxury coach!"

Wave after wave of tempting voices, like whispers of a demon, mixed with the mouthwatering aroma of grilled meat, wafted through the cracks of the window to Monica's nose and ears.

Having not eaten a proper meal for over a month, she was drawn to the scent like an Elf Lady hypnotized by Beastmen, drooling foolishly as she walked over to the window.

"Eat, Monica wants to eat grilled meat."

A pair of excessively pale and small hands pressed against the window latch.

Just as Monica was about to be lured out,

an untimely harsh shout resounded: "You little brat, when are you going to pay back the debt you owe to Mandala Gold Firm?!"

"Eh, big brother, what a coincidence, the one who hit my ox is that guy! You've got to let him taste some good juice!"

"He bullied my little brother? Fuck, today I, Luke, will let him know what it means to mess with the wrong person!"

Outside the small Western-style house.

Three Beastmen dressed in black leather jackets, carrying wooden sticks on their shoulders and with ruffian-like faces arrived.

The leader was Luke, a Wild Boar Person with large tusks, his small eyes filled with brutality, as he crudely weighed his wooden stick in his hand, staring at Lin Da in front of the grill with a vicious gaze.

Then, seeing Kafni, the Wild Boar Person Luke, was stunned.

Kafni, squatting in front of the window fanning herself with a palm-leaf fan, her large buttocks perched up, her long legs under her shorts white and flawless, her luscious thighs softly resting on her knees, nearly brought the three Beastmen brothers to tears!

On the spot, Wild Boar Person Luke entered a combat state!

"Old Ox, Old Donkey, surround them, don't let them escape!"

Luke sneered as he approached Lin Da, who looked utterly calm, and mockingly said, "You humans are quite bold. Seeing me, the 'Debt King' Luke, and you don't kneel and beg for mercy?"

Lin Da finally glanced at Luke.

Just now, Kafni told him that this Wild Boar Person had a Level Aura of about 8, only one level higher than him.

But as a Healing Hero, Lin Da's Basic Attributes were twice that of the average Beastman's, and it wasn't certain that a carriage-load of Wild Boars would be a match for him, let alone a single Wild Boar Luke.

"Before I beat you up, let's ask what you want with the owner of this house," Lin Da said politely, not forgetting to keep flipping the meat of Magical Creatures.

Luke's forehead bulged with veins as he laughed in anger: "Fine, today I'll make sure you die understanding. The owner of this house owes our Mandala Gold Firm 10 Gold Coins. With interest compounded, by the end of the year, she still owes us 97 Gold Coins. If she doesn't pay up today, the house will belong to our Mandala Gold Firm."

"The Empire's statutory rate is a maximum of 24%, right? Anything above that is considered usury and needn't be paid back," Lin Da said.

"Then you're mistaken," Luke sneered. "We loaned her that 'leaflet,' the leaflet's initial value was 10 Gold Coins, and now it has increased in value. It's a total of 127 Gold Coins now, and not a copper less will suffice!"

"Oh, I see. The Mandalas are quite the scumbags, always skirting around the laws of the Empire," Lin Da said.

Lin Da placed the grilled meat of magical beasts onto a plate, stretching his aching shoulders as he produced cracking sounds from his bones. With a smile, he looked at Wild Boar Person Luke: "I'm ready. Let's start."

"Arrogant! 'Skills, Boar Charge!'"

Luke's expression changed drastically. In Red Heart City, which adventurer would dare to disrespect him, 'Debt King' Luke?

A pair of Wild Boar tusks aimed straight at Lin Da as the Wild Boar Person charged in a beeline!

Lin Da, with arms crossed over his chest, stood still while his body emitted a purplish magic glow.

This glow formed a set of half-real, half-illusory Spiky Thorn Armor around him, like a sea urchin.

Poison Technique Series Skills, Spiky Thorn Armor, increases defensive power by 30%, and reflects 10% damage back onto the attacker!

Among the major attributes, defensive power and Magic Defense are the rarest. If the defensive attribute exceeds the opponent's attack, then apart from being hit in a fatal weak spot, at most you would lose 1 Hit Point.

Lin Da's basic defense is 24, his Leather Armor under his clothes adds another 1, and after the boost from Spiky Thorn Armor, his defensive power is 32.

As for the level 8 Wild Boar Luke, his basic attack was at most 50, and his equipped gear seemed rather shabby, probably a big thug from The Mandalas, let's estimate an attack of 60.

When Luke rammed into him, his feet were rooted like a great tree, unmovable, feeling as if a swiftly running cat had nudged against his belly.

To say it didn't hurt was an overstatement, but to say it did seemed a tad too delicate.

Above Lin Da's head, a faint red -40 floated up, while his total Hit Points were 1880.

It was as if a long red health bar had lost a sliver as thin as a strand of noodles.

"Aiya!"

Luke, dizzy from the blow, was also hit by the rebounded damage, clutching his head in a daze.

In front of him, Lin Da wore a slight, disdainful smile and crooked his finger in a beckoning gesture.

This left Luke's henchmen, Old Cow and Old Donkey, completely dumbfounded.

How could that human withstand their boss Luke's Wild Boar Rush and remain unscathed?

Unlock tales at m-vl-em-pyr

Their boss Luke was a level 8 adventurer; taken head-on by a Wild Boar Rush, even someone of level 9 would be sent flying several meters and seriously injured!

But what was with this guy?

No injuries whatsoever, and he even sent their boss flying back?

The two Beastmen exchanged a stealthy glance, each seeing a hint of bad omen in the other's eyes.

"Aaaaah!"

Luke, not giving up, his face red with exertion, charged again with another Wild Boar Rush.

Bang bang!

Bang bang bang!

After three or four times, the result was the same each time; the human before him was like an iron tower, impossible to budge, whereas it was Luke's head that was nearly dazed from the collisions.

He didn't even see the man wearing any impressive Magical Equipment, how could his skin be so thick?

Luke was sweating profusely, panting and bending over, hands on his knees; the man he was attacking wasn't losing any blood, and Luke was the one tiring himself out.

"No, can't do it, brothers. I need a breather, you two go."

"Eh... boss Luke, I just remembered I forgot to take a dump, so I'll be off."

"Same here."

Luke was overjoyed: "My gosh, I feel the same actually!"

This good juice, afraid it can't be given to that human now.

The debt collection would have to be postponed too, for Luke knew well that today he had kicked an iron plate!

The other party had taken his four Wild Boar Rushes without a hitch; he must be at least level 13 or 14.

The three of them tiptoed back to the main road, as if making even a slightly louder noise would draw Lin Da's attention.

But it was just deluding themselves.

"You're leaving, did you ask my permission?"

Lin Da's expression darkened as he raised his hand and threw a dusky purple Venom Magic Sphere.

Luke felt that the Magic Sphere didn't seem to be very imposing, and if hit by it, he figured it probably wouldn't be too serious.
