Princess, I am really a good person

Chapter 1Z
  It's very windy tonight.

Zhou Mingyi looked at the watch on his wrist, which showed a ten-minute countdown.

He confirmed the time and walked towards the camp where the fire was lit.

Several modified trucks formed a circle, and a large group of mercenaries gathered around a bonfire, drinking and having fun.

This is a mercenary group with many members, including muscular demons with horns, wild and exposed women, and orcs covered in fur.

The cold moonlight and the flickering fire camp looked like an oil painting with contrasting colors.

Zhou Mingyi walked out of the cold darkness.

The mercenaries gathered around the campfire were drinking and in high spirits, and no one noticed his appearance.

It wasn't until he threw the heavy backpack filled with scraps of gold in front of them that the boss of this group of mercenaries, the fat, pig-like bald man, Bart, rubbed his swollen eyes and hit him. A wine burp asked him:

"What do you call it?"

"Z."

Bart didn't pay much attention to this answer that was obviously not his real name. In Mortan, a paradise without order, there were many people who concealed their identities.

One of the men picked up the bag of gold, reached out and grabbed a handful, leaned on it and took a deep breath.

"it is true."

After receiving a positive reply from his men, Bart turned his attention to the man wearing a cloak.

"What do you want us to do?"

"I got news that you got some elves from Khachipar, and I want to buy one." Zhou Mingyi said calmly.

Bart laughed.

"Just for this? Indeed, these little goblins with delicate skin and tender flesh are indeed smart."

"There happens to be one that hasn't been sold. If you want it, take it."

He waved his hand, and one of his men went to the back of a truck. A moment later, he pushed an elf girl with long blue-purple hair who was covered in injuries and walked out.

She was about fifteen or sixteen years old, with pointed ears unique to elves, and was wearing a dirty shabby cloth. Her beautiful face looked extremely haggard at this time. She must have been tortured enough, and her lips were also because of Chapped due to lack of water, his blue eyes looked at the people around him in fear. After being taken out, he collapsed to the ground, pursed his lips, and trembled all over.

"How's it going? Isn't this a good condition?" Bart said to him.

In order to show him, the mercenary on one side kicked the trembling elf on the ground.

"Call someone!"

The elf was kicked to the ground. He raised his head slightly and looked at Zhou Mingyi in front of him. His lips trembled and he shouted:

"Master"

"How is it? Are you satisfied?"

Seeing that the other party did not speak, Bart added: "Don't worry, she is a virgin, we will not touch the goods you want to buy."

Zhou Mingyi looked at the fallen elf indifferently for a few seconds, then lowered his body and squatted in front of her.

"Your name is Zana, right?"

The frightened elf immediately opened his aqua blue eyes and looked at him in disbelief.
  "Yes..." she replied eagerly and fearfully.

Zhou Mingyi nodded and stood up.

Bart smoked a cigarette and looked at him with squinted eyes, saying nothing.

"Okay, it's her."

Zhou Mingyi reached out to Bart and asked for the key to the elf's shackles, but Bart in front of him chuckled and didn't give it to him.

"You don't have enough money." Bart said angrily. "I remember that the price you sold before was this price." Zhou Mingyi's tone was still calm.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I have temporarily raised the price. Now I want two bags of gold." Bart said with a smile.

His men dropped the bag of gold back to his feet.

"If you haven't prepared a second bag of gold, you can get out now." Bart said coldly.

When I saw the conversation between this man and the elf just now, I knew that he came specifically to find this elf with a purpose, so the price would not be justified if he did not raise it.

Zhou Mingyi smiled and said, "That's better than this. I owe the rest first and will send it to you later. It was Mr. Mattis who introduced me here, just for his sake."

"His face is worth a bag of gold?" Bart's tone improved a lot, "I said, either add more money or get out!"

Zhou Mingyi was silent and couldn't clearly see his face hidden under the cloak. He slowly carried the bag of gold on his back.

"What if I have to take her away?"

Hearing this, Bart burst out laughing, and the mercenaries on the side also laughed.

Suddenly, there were several clicks of bullets being loaded, and the black muzzles of the guns were all pointed at him.

"You can try." Bart raised the double-barreled shotgun in his hand and said to the man in front of him.

The man shook his head and laughed softly.

"You are so eager to die."

"court death!"

Bart's face darkened, anger suddenly appeared in his eyes, and he directly pulled the trigger at the man in front of him.

With a loud bang, the muzzle fire rose, and the scattered steel balls shot toward Zhou Mingyi with impact.

Originally, the force of the shotgun should have directly torn his body apart and sent him flying away, but then everyone saw the steel balls, like someone pressing the pause button, all stopping in front of him. The nearest one was only one centimeter away from his eyes, but it stopped abruptly as if it was caught by an invisible force.

"The Imprinter!" Bart opened his eyes wide and blurted out one word.

Zhou Mingyi raised his hand and waved it forward, and these hovering steel balls immediately shot towards the mercenaries.

For a moment, blood mist rolled and screams spread. Bart in front of him was hit by at least four bullets, and his fat body fell to the ground.

Zhou Mingyi took this opportunity to pick up the elf in front of him, took out a glass ball from his pocket, and crushed it hard. A blue light was released from the broken glass ball, completely covering the two of them, and the light dispersed. Go, he and the elf girl have disappeared.

"You fucking dare to mess with me!" Bart gritted his teeth and propped himself up. The fat on his body blocked the impact of the steel ball for him, but the severe pain on his body made him furious to the extreme.

He pulled off a cylindrical respirator hanging from his body, brought it to his nose and took a few strong breaths before the pain subsided a lot.

"Where's that brat?" he yelled at his men.

The mercenaries under him also took out respirators to relieve the pain on their bodies, and only heard someone shout: "He used the teleportation anchor to escape!"

"Damn it, chase him! The anchor point teleportation can't reach that far. If you catch him back, I'm going to cut off all his limbs and throw him into the excrement pile!"

Just as they were setting off, Bart suddenly saw where the other party had left, leaving behind a round metal ball with a mean toothy smile painted on it with red paint. In addition, there was a digital screen. The countdown above has just reached zero.

"grass."

These were the last words Bart said. The next moment, there was only incandescent light in front of his eyes.

Zhou Mingyi stood on a distant hill and looked at the fireball rising in the distance. A few seconds later, the rumbling explosion sounded.

He took off his cloak, revealing a young and thin face. He looked like he was only seventeen or eighteen years old. What was strange was that his pupils were vertical pupils like snakes.

"It will really save me money."

He weighed the backpack filled with scraps of gold in his hands, and the countdown on his wrist had just reached zero.
