“I understand,” I said, barely moving my tongue. - What happened now is just a deception. If you don't pay the money, the Shah will come to you again. You will not return half a million, say goodbye to life. If you hide part of the money - blame yourself. The image suddenly turned off. Shah looked at me. - We're watching you, Tim. Don't you dare play around. To transfer six thousand five hundred credits to Yuuji's account today. - But I'll be left without money, what do I have? - Department store "Tor-tor" today throws out the delay. You can eat there. The door silently opened for him, the Shah stepped over the threshold, and then she came back. I got up on shaky legs. Your face burns, waves of pain run through your body. Even though I was severely beaten, this Shah, having hand implants with which you can crush concrete blocks, still did not beat with all his strength and in such a way as not to break anything. It was something like a demonstrative flogging, which should stimula

- Can I help you? - came from the left quiet, but at the same time such a deep voice that goosebumps ran through my skin. I winced a little and looked around. In front of me stood a woman with white hair and dark blue eyes. Moreover, when I say white, it does not mean gray-haired. They are white with such a slight sheen of metal. And even if there are barely noticeable wrinkles in the corners of the eyes, I can’t turn my tongue to call her old. She looks to be thirty or thirty-five years old. Looks up. Dressed in a strict dark brown dress, reaching to the ankles, with a white lace collar and cuffs. - Ah, Tim is a magician, what helps the city? - Oh, yes, ma'am... - You can just Martha. I am the owner of the store. You don't see men very often. - Well, we usually wear clothes until the fabric starts to fray. She giggled. - Yeah, that's right, that's right. Even my husband, despite the fact that I am the owner of a clothing store, himself prefers not to change clothes until they a

"I'll think about the offer," I said evasively.- Like, you want to see if we are worthy to enter into a contract with you? – with a chuckle asked Mist. - No, well, you heard what?Those present guffawed along with the commander. I was embarrassed and looked at the others. In addition to this big guy, there are six more in the group. Three guys and three girls. Everyone has a different physique, everyone has different clothes and age.- It's okay for you to laugh. You can’t just take and join strangers, – I finally said.Don't be offended, I was just joking. Of course you are right. Okay, we must wait for the last little man and let's go.Are we waiting for someone else? I asked in surprise.- Yes.I was about to ask who they were waiting for, but then I heard footsteps behind me."Sorry, I'm late," a familiar voice said.I turned around sharply, in front of me in leather armor stood a girl with long red hair and bright green eyes. We stared at each other for a moment, and then sharpl

- Get ready. Tim, hit the joints, Osh and Tera, let's go.Fog and Tanchi stepped forward with their shields up. The golem seemed to feel them, there was a roar with notes of grinding metal, the monster quickened its pace. I created an ice block, threw it at the monster's shoulder. There was a crash, ice shards rained down on the steps, and the number 25 rose above the monster. Not twenty, because I have a magic damage modifier that increases it by a quarter. And still this is not enough. If the monster really has a thousand hit points, then I need fifty blocks of ice.Osh and Tera each fired a shot. The arrows struck at the burning green eyes, stuck, trembled slightly. Two numbers appeared above the monster's head at 18 and 14. Meanwhile, the Golem approached Tanchi and Fog. There were heavy blows on the guys' shields. Due to the fact that they are standing in front of me, it is impossible to hit the monster with a lump. The guys themselves delivered two blows to the joints, there was

- Tim, how are you? Tanchi asked, rising from the dead howl.- Fine. Only bruises remained.- Truth? He has pretty dangerous attacks.- And I have stone skin.“That’s it…” the guy drawled.I looked back. The rest of the monsters were also decided. Everyone is standing, breathing heavily, Aki has a small cut on his forehead. The fog pressed his hand to his side, but there was no blood visible, so it was just a bruise. Healers quickly fled to heal.I sat down on the floor. Krista suddenly approached, smiling embarrassedly, put her hands to her chest. I felt heat spread from the girl's fingers in different directions, the pain subsided."Thank you for protecting us," she said. - I was very scared.- Do not mention it. That's my job.- But thanks anyway.When the treatment was over, the group moved on. And soon she ran into monsters again and everything started anew. By the time we reached the opposite end of the hall, according to my estimates, they had killed almost six dozen howls, whi

Howl is killed, Howl is killed, Howl is killed… – the messages were full of them.Attention received knowledge - Howl. Experience gained for knowledge +50.Monster. Creation of chaos. Has 170 hit points.Attack type: pincer strike, 55 damage, effectiveness against A-1 armor is reduced by 90%. Has four claws for attacks, can deal damage simultaneously with all.I turned around. A huge stalagmite, crashing to the ground, buried under the rubble almost all the howls, leaving three that flew at the very end.“Now let’s talk,” I croaked, exhaling heavily.They swooped in at once, but I was ready and fired lightning at the first. Tentacles drummed on me, I should have run away, but I no longer have the strength. A green light enveloped me, and the lost hit points were restored. Meanwhile, arrows pierce the bodies of the howls one after another. After a while, the monsters were finished.I literally fell to the ground, wiping sweat off my forehead. Krista ran up to the left.- Tim, are you o

- Don't get in my way."Don't fall under my spell," I warned.She did not have time to answer, as a growl was heard ahead. We tensed at once, I noticed how Christa hurried to stand behind me.Appeared from the darkness. Dog? Wolf? I don't know what to call this creature. It is similar in build to a wolf, only larger in size, the muzzle is disproportionately huge, instead of wool there is red embossed shiny skin. The mouth is open, showing a row of teeth sharp as steel spikes. The creature has four eyes - two on each side, more like four cuts that open slightly and become visible green iris and pupils elongated like a snake. Xag moves on paws similar to lion's - the same massive with sharp claws. From his back, like the Howls, four long, sharp tentacles protrude, similar to the legs of a spider. It seems that xag can stand on them and walk.- Ready! – commanded Tanchi, threw away the torch, the sword pointed towards the monster.Chaos Hound abruptly, without warning, jumped towards the

Depths of darkness. Part 3- Christa, no! Aki rushed forward with a cry.This cry brought me out of my daze. I immediately threw an ice block at the monster. She punched the creature in the paw. She squealed, turned to me, fire flared in her eyes, and then an arrow hit one of them. Green blood spattered and ran down his muzzle.- She is still alive, we must quickly soak this creature! shouted Mist. - Pounce! Tanchi, come in from the other side, we'll clamp it.The boy nodded, grimacing at the pain in his torn chest, ran around the elite hound, raising his shield. The warriors cut at the same time, which indicates a long team work. Xag tried to answer, but at that moment, a heavy arrow fired from Osh's bow hit his chest, piercing the skin and sinking deep into the body. The beast roared and chose the archer as its target, but Aki and Weasel came from behind, delivered several quick blows. Their hands spattered with blood, the creature squealed, one of the hind legs twisted unnaturally,
