Chapter 69

Inside the house where he was staying.

Tang Zheng sat cross-legged on the wooden bed, eyes slightly closed, thinking about what to do next.

Creak~ squeak~

The little Evil Spirit Dog was lying under the bed, biting a Goblin leg bone in its mouth, its teeth constantly grinding and making a faint "creak" sound, seemingly grinding its teeth.

The corpse of the Goblin just now had clearly been eaten into the Evil Spirit Dog's belly, leaving only one leg bone.

Suddenly.

The little Evil Spirit Dog's teeth-grinding action paused, it raised its head and looked toward the direction of the door. Then, it turned its head to look at the wooden bed and found that Tang Zheng had already opened his eyes.

The footsteps were not heavy.

Tang Zheng's gaze flickered, and he looked down at the bone in the little Evil Spirit Dog's mouth with an expressionless face.

"Crack!"

The little Evil Spirit Dog's teeth immediately exerted force, easily crushing the Goblin leg bone that looked hard, and swallowed it into its belly in one or two mouthfuls.

"No smell."

Tang Zheng raised his arm and waved his hand.

The faint smell of blood permeating the air in the room immediately dissipated completely.

Clang, clang!

A light knocking sound on the door rang out.

Tang Zheng got up from the wooden bed, and with a light "click" sound, the door was opened.

Enri, who was carrying a wooden tray with both hands, saw Tang Zheng opening the door, lowered her head, and said in a low voice: "Mother asked me to send this food over, thank you for your help today, my lord."

"Actually, I have already eaten." Tang Zheng heard these words, simply glanced at the food on the tray, and spoke.

Once these words were spoken.

Enri didn't know how to speak for a moment.

Looking at Enri, who had become even more nervous, Tang Zheng opened the door wider, "Then come in first."

Enri's heart breathed a slight sigh of relief, walked into the room, and placed the wooden tray on the old wooden table inside the house.

After the things were put down.

Enri glanced at the little Evil Spirit Dog, which was observing her from under the wooden bed, and her body stiffened.

Even knowing there would be no danger, she was still somewhat afraid; after all, this was a very dangerous monster.

Tang Zheng didn't close the door, but pushed it further back, opening it wider, and only then walked into the room.

"Um, my lord, the food is put down..."

Enri crossed her hands over her lower abdomen, her voice a bit cramped.

"If you are not in a hurry, there are a few things I would like to ask." Tang Zheng walked to the wooden table, pulled out a chair, sat down, and spoke gently.

He hadn't expected Enri to send him food, but since she had come, it was perfect to confirm the matter of those adventurer teams from before.

Such a small village couldn't hide any secrets.

And, the Village Chief's words needed to be verified again.

"Okay, okay."

Enri was startled, then nodded, and sat down together.

Tang Zheng looked at the food on the table.

A milky white soup with meat cubes, a very strange combination.

"I will accept this kindness."

Tang Zheng picked up a nut like a pine nut from the side, squeezed it lightly, threw it into his mouth, and said straightforwardly, "The nuts are good."

Hearing this sentence.

Enri's back couldn't help but sit up straighter subconsciously, and her eyes clearly brightened.

Actually.

Whether it was the bean soup with thick meat cubes or the nuts picked from the dangerous environment of the forest, these were things her family usually couldn't bear to eat.

But Enri knew very well that food like this could probably be described as shabby in the eyes of the young lord before her.

Before sending it over, Enri had thought that the other party might not even touch it, but even if she anticipated this result, the necessary etiquette still had to be there!

Just like everyone in the village, who often helped each other, no matter how big or small the help was, a response had to be made.

For Enri, this was the most simple and honest principle.

Tang Zheng didn't think so much; after casually tasting a nut, he began to ask about the adventurers.

Enri clearly hadn't specifically inquired about it, and most of it was heard from other villagers, which was about the same as what the Village Chief had just said.

Tang Zheng nodded knowingly.

"Um, my lord, are you not an adventurer?" Enri suddenly asked in a low voice. "Oh, how did you know?" Tang Zheng asked.

Enri saw that her inquiry was not rejected. At an age full of curiosity about the outside world, she naturally couldn't help but say in a low voice part of the content she overheard from the Village Chief's conversation when she was sending the food.

"So that's how it is."

"I am indeed not an adventurer." Tang Zheng smiled softly.

A moment later.

Enri left the room with a happy expression, carrying the untouched bean soup and the nuts she had only eaten one of.

Crack!

Tang Zheng closed the door again, a look of interest flashing across his face.

He suddenly discovered something he hadn't noticed before.

The color of Enri's hair was clearly different from the hair color of everyone else in this village.

The mainstream hair color of the people in Carne Village was brown or dark brown, and Enri's parents, including her sister Nemu, had dark brown hair.

=9+Shu_ba

Only Enri's hair color was chestnut-gold, a shiny hair color.

Of course, this was just a small matter.

Tang Zheng walked back to the wooden bed and reached out to pat the little Evil Spirit Dog's head, "Your role has been played out."

"Awoo."

The little Evil Spirit Dog's gaze was somewhat bewildered, not understanding the meaning of Tang Zheng's words.

Tang Zheng naturally wouldn't explain.

He suddenly took in the little Evil Spirit Dog, besides letting it deal with the large number of Goblin and Ogre corpses in his item box, it was also to carry out a certain disguise for himself.

Or it could also be said to be actively exposing some information!

When strength is too weak, lowering one's sense of presence is the most appropriate choice.

But for the majority of the time next, he would be active in human society in this world, and lowering his sense of presence would not be so necessary.

As long as there is activity, traces will inevitably be left behind.

Just like being targeted by people from "Eight Fingers" inexplicably before, some troubles cannot be prevented just by actively avoiding them.

In a situation like the Other World, which is stable on the surface but relatively chaotic internally and externally, there will always be someone blind who bumps into you.

If you keep lowering your sense of presence and suddenly make a big commotion, it will instead be more eye-catching.

The existence of the little Evil Spirit Dog itself is enough to form a certain deterrent, but this deterrent is not strong.

The Bone King's approach is worth Tang Zheng's reference.

But the effect pursued is different.

The Bone King established the Darkness squad to gain a large amount of reputation in a short time to make himself famous, in order to quickly break into the human interior and obtain intelligence from the human world side.

But what Tang Zheng is facing is not just the humans of the Other World, but also the "Great Tomb of Nazarick" that will descend in the future.

Just as he said before, this intelligence war has already begun!

Tang Zheng's strongest means currently is his melee ability; in all likelihood, before obtaining the special class "Valkyrie", melee ability should be his strongest means.

Therefore.

Tang Zheng intends to disguise his main attack method as a magic caster next.

It's just that he is not sure yet.

Whether to disguise as a magic-type magic caster or a faith-type magic caster.

All the magic he currently masters, except for "Minor Heal", are magic-type magic. But before, he had actively exposed the existence of healing magic.

That's why he was a bit conflicted.

Of course, he could also disguise as a magic caster who masters both systems; there are quite a few such casters in this world.

"What a pity."

Tang Zheng thought of Enri just now and sighed slightly.

Realizing that Enri had quite good talent in command-type classes, he actually had the idea of wanting to recruit Enri.

But wanting Enri to master command-type classes and increase the level strength of the class, at least requires a small army for Enri to use for command and training.

But Tang Zheng does not have this condition now.

"Sure enough, there are really many things to consider." Tang Zheng rubbed his temples with a headache.

"Awoo." The little Evil Spirit Dog raised its head and rubbed against Tang Zheng's trouser leg.
