Chapter 156 Killer Tiger's Waiting

"…Then it's about time we leave."

"Oh, yes, be careful on your way." Weisley responded to Xu Zhen's farewell with a stiff smile. No one else interrupted at this time.

Then, Xu Zhen and the others turned their attention to Alicia, who was still smiling bitterly: "Alicia, thank you for your care."

"No, I should thank you. Although I feel like I did almost nothing while I was with you guys..." Alicia smiled bitterly while scratching her cheek, while Xu Zhen showed a confused expression.

"Nothing, we're just really grateful that you're with us."

“Really…?”

In Xu Zhen's gentle smile, Alicia couldn't help but blush. The monsters also smiled happily. The receptionist noticed something and whispered to Courtney: "That... Miss Alicia said to Mr. Xu Zhen..."

"It's hard to tell right now." Courtney just said this and smiled. The receptionist couldn't tell whether this was a sincere statement or a polite remark.

"Oh, is that so..." She could only answer blankly.

“Then let’s go. See you next time.”

"Well, bye."

With Wesley, the receptionist and Alicia waving as they watched, Xu Zhen and his companions passed through the west city gate.

After the city gates were closed, they began to walk along the road to the west. Perhaps due to the disturbance a few days ago, there were no wild monsters to be seen. Lati and the others also looked around and could hardly sense any presence.

The only sound I could hear was the wind rustling the leaves, and the road was even quieter than usual.

"It feels a bit strange." Lati whispered doubtfully, and Xu Zhen nodded: "Indeed. However, it seems to be easier to reach the Elf Village."

"Yes. You are right. For us, it is certainly safe and worthy of gratitude not to be attacked by monsters."

In fact, Courtney has been worried. He is worried that there may be a large number of remnants of monsters lurking around the capital.

Although many monsters had been killed during the previous riot, not all of them had been eliminated. In addition, the riot had just subsided, and only two days had passed. He didn't think those excited monsters would calm down so quickly.

However, these concerns may be unnecessary, Courtney thinks.

Even when they reached the fork in the road leading to the Panna Forest, they still hadn't encountered a single wild monster, not even the shadow of one, which made him wonder if all the monsters had really been killed in the city.

"Ah, Master! Look over there!" Lati pointed forward, where there was a large monster. And this monster was a familiar one to them.

"Killer tiger... Could it be that it has been waiting for us?" Hearing Xu Zhen's whisper, Courtney couldn't help but think that this might be possible.

Although it was possible that they came here by chance, the constant gazes they were looking at made them concerned. More importantly, they were concerned that this was a subspecies of killer tiger.

Although it might be a different individual from Barney's father, as far as they knew, there shouldn't be any other subspecies in the area besides that tiger subspecies.

Coupled with the performance of sniping prey, I always feel no killing intent. As Xu Zhen said, it seems to be waiting for us more naturally. The subspecies slowly stood up and then slowly walked towards Xu Zhen and the others. In response, Lati flew over in surprise.

"Barney's dad, are you okay!"

The tiger subspecies held by Lati seemed to be very happy and began to purr. It seemed to feel the joy of reuniting with Xu Zhen and the others.

Xu Zhen and the others were equally happy. Looking around, seeing that everyone seemed to be in high spirits, and realizing that nothing had happened, Xu Zhen felt that he could finally rest assured.

Xu Zhen understood what the tiger subspecies said through Lati's translation.

"Barney's father has been paying attention to our situation since then. We have searched many places together. He happened to be searching near here and noticed us coming, so he has been waiting for us here."

"Is that so? Is there any problem?" When Xu Zhen asked this, the tiger subspecies shook his head.

“So far, nothing seems to be happening.”

"That's good. We've dealt with everything here. The bad guys have been caught, and Ced and Barney are safe."

After listening to Lati's translation, Xu Zhen told him this, and at that moment, the tiger subspecies let out a cry of joy.

I wanted to chat for a while longer, but I couldn’t stay long because I had a destination ahead.

"Then it's about time we get going. We need to go to the elf village in the west."

"Ga-ga? Ga-ga-ga-ga, ga-ga-ga..."

"I can take you there if you like."

The pro-Tiger subspecies kindly suggested, but Xu Zhen shook his head at that.

“Thank you, but we would like to go there on foot this time.”

When Xu Zhen said this with a smile, the tiger subspecies seemed to understand and no longer insisted.

"I'll give you a ride next time we meet." Xu Zhen said so, and the tiger subspecies let out a huge roar. That meant it had to be agreed, Lati explained.

After the tiger subspecies made way, Xu Zhen and his team moved forward again.

"Goodbye. I hope we can meet again one day!" Xu Zhen said this, and the tiger subspecies roared in response. Listening to the heroic roar, Xu Zhen and his companions continued to move forward to the west.

----------------------

On the second day after Xu Zhen and his companions went to the Elf Village, three adventurers appeared at the south gate of the capital of Sforia.

One was a blond elf youth, and the other was an orc youth with short brown hair. Both wore swords at their waists. The other was a petite elf girl with a short light blue ponytail swinging. Their casual attire gave people the impression of thieves.

These adventurers were Russell and his companions, who had previously accepted an escort mission to the Kingdom of Santono.

They set out from the Great Forest of Eugrias, passed the border safely, and finally returned to the Kingdom of Sforia. During this period, they were stopped at the border for one day, but other than that, they moved forward smoothly and finally returned to the capital.

Having just happily returned to the capital, Russell and his friends noticed something strange after seeing the city gate.

"Hey...was the gate so damaged before?" Russell tried to observe carefully to confirm whether he was seeing things, but the gate was indeed obviously damaged. Oliver nodded in agreement.
