In the southern district of Saville, in a private house next to a tavern.
Several people who looked like adventurers were in a circle talking about something. At this moment, a rune suddenly lit up on the table, and the one in the lead immediately signaled everyone to silence.
Immediately after hearing a loud knock on the door, the leader carefully distinguished it, showing a relaxed expression, "Someone is coming, go and open the door."
As soon as the voice fell, an adventurer walked out, and soon walked in with an adventurer. The newcomer knelt on the ground as soon as he entered the house, reporting respectfully: "My lord, there is a message from the guild. The news said that the mission has changed and it has become an investigator."
"Your people didn't get involved, right?"
"No, sir, you told us that we don't touch that task." "Go out."
"Yes."
After the messenger left, several people formed a circle again, "It seems that everything is going well, let them discover that thing by themselves!"
"My lord is wise."
"Haha." The leader twirled his beard and smiled, "It's just taking advantage of no one in the mage tower. Prepare to prepare, we will withdraw tomorrow." "Tomorrow? Is it Ai"
"Shut up!" Before the subordinate spoke, the leader pointed to his mouth. The speaker opened and closed his mouth up and down, but he didn't make a sound.
"My lord!" The others also seemed to be frightened.
After sealing the subordinate's throat, the leader breathed a sigh of relief, and his face recovered a little, "Idiot! Don't drag us down if you want to die!
"Did you know that when an advanced arcanist was a wizard, a wizard was very sensitive! As long as someone called his name, he would be aware of it!
"Epps didn't show up, but it's not his advanced level. As long as the person reminds him that someone is doing trouble in his territory, you and I will die here!"
After finishing speaking, he seemed to be puzzled and yelled at an idiot again, and the person who had just spoken was scared at the moment.
"Forget it, don't wait for tomorrow, I will withdraw today."
Perhaps I was really frightened. The leader gave an order to mention the time of evacuation today. Other people went to other rooms to pack their things without any objection.
Soon, a white light flashed, and several people disappeared, leaving only the empty room as if they were telling something.
...
On the other side, in the living room of Felbers Villa.
Mrs. Patty stopped in front of Chateau, "Master Chateau"
Xia Duo sighed, "Things may be far more complicated than you think. I don't want to take a trip this time. It's not in my interest."
This attitude can be said to be very clear, but Mrs. Patty is still unwilling to give up persuasion. She was shocked by Chateau’s detection spell before. If it weren’t for Chateau, she might finally have done something with Felbers’ body. .
This is not what she hoped, and Xia Duo is the one who changed these things. She has a kind of fascinating confidence in Xia Duo, "Master Xia Duo, I can increase the reward, double or triple it!"
This woman is really crazy! But gold coins are indeed very tempting, and Xia Duo hesitated.
At this time, Carey, who had long been envious and jealous, couldn't help but scream, "Xia Duo, are you ready to give up like this? Are you afraid? Lord Carey is not afraid!"
Mrs. Patty immediately turned around and thanked Carey, "Thank you, Lord Carey."
This reaction, this speed is like waiting for this moment, hurry! Xia Duo is a little speechless, aren't you overly sad?
"Mrs. Patty, have you ever thought that the Mage Tower will be found in the end? Carey, have you thought about this question?"
Although it is unlikely that the lord did it, it is also a trouble to involve a certain mage in the mage tower. It is obvious that Xia Duo does not want to provoke a trouble that can be avoided.
In other words, these gold coins were not enough for Xia Duo to attack an unknown wizard group.
And Kaili also hesitated. No one is a fool. He can take on the task for gold coins, but Bi will surely provoke the mage in the mage tower for gold coins.
He is just a new mage who is not much better than the apprentice.
Even if he temporarily agreed, he would still do what he would do later, but in front of Xia Duo, he disdain to lie, and silence is his answer.
So the scene is also very obvious. Seeing that the two wizards are planning to back down, Mrs. Patty showed her trump card, "Two adults, I can be sure that this matter has nothing to do with Lord Lord, and if you find the murderer, Lord Lord I will definitely reward you!"
"This is impossible!"
Carey retorted subconsciously. He glanced at Chateau and asked Mrs. Patty, "What is the relationship between Felbers and Lord Lord?"
"I don't know exactly what the relationship is, but many trades in the territory have to go through Felbers' Chamber of Commerce, and Lord Lord is very kind to Felbers." Madame Patty said affirmatively.
Now even Xia Duo is a little suspicious, is this woman telling such a lie just to let them continue their investigation?
What is Felbers’ Chamber of Commerce, Chateau didn’t know, but Carey knew, and he retorted,
Impossible, Leaton Chamber of Commerce, I know. Although it has a bit of historical background, it’s half dead now— "
But before the words were finished, Carey suddenly fell silent. Why did a half-dead chamber of commerce pay a big price to investigate the murderer? Why do you post tasks in the Mage Tower?
Carey felt that he was a little bad. He looked at Xia Duo subconsciously, hoping that he would say something to support his point of view.
But Chateau hadn't even heard the name of the Leighton Chamber of Commerce before today, so what can he say? So he ignored Carey’s gesture and turned her gaze to Mrs. Patty, hoping she could explain clearly~EbookFREE.me~ If the lord can be ruled out, Xia Duo is still interested in participating, but then we have to worry about it. There are more competitors, maybe they are already on the way by now.
Suddenly, Chateau also felt a little urgent, "Mrs. Patty, please explain."
"Master Chateau, I'm really sorry. I'm not interested in Felbers' business. These are things that I usually come into contact with occasionally. As for the Lord Lord to be very kind to Felbers, that's because I saw Lord Lord called by myself. Felbers' old friend."
"That letter!" Carey reacted immediately. "The'Greg' in that letter is Lord Lord?"
Chateau also thought about it, but Mrs. Patty denied this, "No, Greg is a bard, I have seen him."
Isn't it just admitting it? However, Mrs. Patty's denial seems to indicate that her previous words may indeed be true, plus the ability to post missions in the Mage Tower, after all, is somewhat extraordinary.
In fact, Xia Duo was ready to agree first, if he really felt resistance, then retreat in time.
So, he agreed, of course, Carey could not wait to agree before Xia Duo agreed.
Seeing that Chateau agreed, Mrs. Patty's face also smiled for the first time, but it was fleeting.
...
After leaving the Felbers Villa, Chateau decided to start the investigation from the Leaton Chamber of Commerce under Felbers. He believed that there was no unprovoked killing in this world.
There must be interests involved in this matter, otherwise, who would kill an ordinary person if nothing happened? If it is not motivated by profit, killing will only consume one's own physical strength. What's more, it is to control first and then kill, so much effort is just to kill an unrelated person?
Chateau didn't believe it.
