Chapter 709: Listening and speaking

, The fastest update of the latest chapter of the mysterious world under steampunk!
After making this discovery, Leo also had a guess in his mind, so he pointed to the oil painting and asked, "My Excellency, is the young man in that oil painting you?"
"Yes." Saint Francis didn't understand how Leo suddenly changed the subject, but he nodded patiently and said, "Yes, that's me. The content above is my experience of following the instructor when I was young, I think that experience is the most important experience in my life, so I found someone to paint it and hang it here to remind myself that no matter when, I am just a humble pathfinder."
Leo suddenly asked again, "Are you surnamed Alcott?"
St. Francis was stunned. At first, he didn't quite understand the reason for Leo's inquiry, but he still said truthfully: "When I became an ascetic, when I gave up the past, I gave up my name. My last name was Alcott." When he came to this, he suddenly paused. He seemed to think of something, and his expression became a little excited. Then he asked anxiously: "Did you see Andrew Orr at 9 Golden Oak Street?" Kurt?"
"No." Leo shook his head and said before St. Forsyth was disappointed: "But I saw his children."
"Son?" St. Francis froze for a moment, and did not understand Leo's words for a while. He couldn't help saying: "Can you tell me in detail what is going on at 9 Golden Oak Street?"
"Of course." Leo nodded, but then turned around and said, "But you need to promise me two conditions."
Saint Francis smiled and said, "It has been a long time since no one has talked to me about the conditions like this. You say? What conditions do you want to talk about?"
"Actually very simple two conditions." Leo did not care about the power that St. Francis deliberately or unintentionally leaked, said calmly: "The first is to tell me, what is your relationship with Andrew Alcott?" What is this all about?"
St. Francis was stunned. He did not expect Leo to come up with such a condition. Although this condition had touched his personal privacy, he was not annoyed by it. Instead, he thought a little and nodded. , Said: "Since Mr. Leo wants to know, I will talk about it! In fact, you should have guessed just now. Andrew Alcott and I have a blood relationship. In fact, this relationship may be more than you guessed. To get closer, Andrew Alcott is my father. I was born at 9 Golden Oak Street. Before I was given the name of Forsyth, it was Quin Alcott."
"Quin Alcott?" Leo confirmed slightly: "Andrew Alcott's youngest son, Quin Alcott?"
"Yes." Saint Francis nodded.
Leo was puzzled and asked, "Aren't you already dead? And your age..."
"My age is very old, I have already exceeded the limit of normal people's ability to live. In fact, I should have been to see my lord, but my lord is not willing to see me. His kindness allows me to continue to live in this In the world, spread the word for him." Saint Francis smiled, and then said in earnest: "I was just lucky, when the disaster happened, I was taken out of the manor by the servant of the family, playing on the lake, so I I was able to survive. Afterwards, my priest's priest took me over to raise him, and I volunteered to become an ascetic missionary as an adult until today."
"Have you been to No. 9 Golden Oak Street afterwards?" Leo Shen asked.
"I've been there. After I became an official priest, I found that I could get my Lord's response every time I prayed. At that time, I was confident and thought that I could find out what happened in my house that year, and I could get an answer, but... "San Feucis said a pause, then smiled bitterly: "I stood outside of No. 9 Golden Oak Street for a day and a night, and in the end I failed to take that step into the manor." He said heavily Sighed and looked at Leo and said, "This thing has been my heart disease for so many years. I thought it was impossible to get an answer until I went to see my Lord, but this time you appeared, you It should be the first person alive out of No. 9 Golden Oak Street."
Leo shook his head slightly and said, "I shouldn't be the first one. I remember there seemed to be someone before me..."
"No, you are the first," Saint Francis interrupted Leo, saying, "I know which one you said, but it is not human."
Leo frowned and said, "Even if it's not a human being, but an unknown family, but his knowledge should be able to..."
"No, you misunderstood, I'm not talking about clan." Saint Forsis shook his head, said: "It is a monster that has never been seen."
After talking, St. Francis got up and walked to the bookcase on the side, carefully searched the bookcase, found a very old document, patted the dust on it, opened it to confirm, and then came back And handed the file to Leo.
Leo was also polite and took a look at the file.
This document is a report document, the content of which is mainly that the Paladin of the Hill Kings Church in Milia and others arrested the so-called clan from No. 9 Golden Oak Street. In this report, in addition to describing the arrest process in detail, it also specifically explained the situation of the so-called clan, which highlighted that the monster became a pool of black oil after death, and this Black oil is extremely corrosive and infectious.
In the report, it is mentioned that there are two godly knights of the sky master. Basically, they can receive the grace ceremony and become a paladin in a few years. These two godly knights were inadvertently contaminated with this black oil. , The body immediately appeared a large area of ​​corrosion.
Afterwards, the clergy of the Sky Lord Church removed the black oil from the two devout knights and healed their corroded bodies, but the two devout knights were crazy, according to what they said before they were crazy Words, they seem to hear some kind of indescribable call of terror.
"Abyss." Leo quickly thought of the origin of the black oil in his heart. Apparently the survivor of No. 9 Golden Oak Street regarded as a clan was actually an abyss mutant.
Leo put the report down, turned his head to look at St. Francis, and asked, "Don't you ever doubt that I have become that kind of monster?"
"I suspected it," Saint Francis said truthfully: "But after we investigated, we found that you had no problems."
Leo thought of the spy spies he had discovered in Port Sait. He thought that those people were either black markets or the people of the Kingdom of England, but they did not expect there to be people in the church.
"The first condition is considered to be completed, let's talk about the second condition?" Leo did not ask more, but continued the previous topic, saying: "The second condition is also very simple, you need to pay and me The information provided is equivalent to the item. This item can be information, information, or an item."
Saint Francis frowned, obviously this second condition was much more difficult in his mind than the first condition, because he was not sure how valuable the information provided by Leo about 9 Golden Oak Street, and I'm not sure if I can pay the equivalent.
Leo saw what St. Francis thought, and said, "You don’t have to think about value first. I can tell you what happened after you entered 9 Golden Oak Street. After you have finished speaking, you will decide how much it is worth. Of course, you can say at that time that what I said is useless, only worth a copper horn, and I will not refute the value set by you, take the copper horn and leave, and will not have any trouble with you or the Hill King Church."
"It's interesting," Saint Francis smiled, took a copper horn from the cloth bag hanging on the belt, and put it on the table, saying, "Since this is the case, I'll take the prepayment first."
Leo did not care about this copper horn, he picked it up directly, received it in his pocket, and then very carefully told what happened to him at 9 Golden Oak Street, because he had told it to Sylvia before. Experience, so now he can be said to be familiar.
Originally he was planning to hide things about the abandoned capital and all the territories, but he didn't do that in the end, but said it in great detail, and while speaking it, he looked at St. Francis's look.
Although the expression of St. Francis seemed very calm throughout, but when referring to the environment and scenery of the town on the lake, the development of the Alcott family in the town on the lake, the church of the gods in the town on the lake, and all the places of end, his face His expression has changed slightly, this change is not strong, the average person may ignore it, but Leo, who pays special attention, has caught this change in his look.
When he said that he was planning to enter the next level of the world, but unexpectedly returned to the world of Velon, Leo stopped and did not continue.
Leo then directly asked: "This is what I passed by at 9 Golden Oak Street. Do you think these materials are worth only a copper horn?"
St. Francis did not answer. He seemed to be immersed in what Leo said, and Leo was not questioning. He just sat there quietly, but he remembered the small details on the face of Saint Francis just now. The meaning of the expression.
"He knows the town on the lake." Leo immediately came to a conclusion after recalling the first subtle expression leaked by Saint Forsis.
When Leo talked about the town on the lake, and talked about the town on the lake protected by thick fog, the excitement and excitement when the small expression on the face of St. Francis was excited, as if a secret he had known for a long time was now confirmed. Just like that, I was very excited.
This mood swing is also the largest of several subtle mood swings, and even this sentiment made St. Francis unable to help asking Leo about more detailed information about the town on the lake, such as the environment and architecture of the town on the lake. Wait, this is the only time he asked in the whole process.
From the subsequent changes in expressions, it can be seen that he compared Leo’s content to the point that he later talked about the development history of the Alcott family in Lake Town, but he was a little distracted, obviously thinking about other towns on Lake Things went.
When Leo later mentioned the church in the town on the lake, he frowned inevitably, whether it was the church of the corpse collector, the church of the real eye, and even the church of the mother of the nests was a cult in his eyes. However, when he heard that Ms. Lake actually had a church in the town of Hushang, and even developed very well, his face showed a hesitant look. Undoubtedly, this matter of Ms. Lake was completely beyond his expectations.
However, he did not ask for more detailed information about the development of the Church of the Lady in the Lake in the town of Lake, let Leo continue to talk about it.
It wasn't until Leo mentioned the abandoned city and all the places of the end that his face changed again. Although the expression on his face did not change very much, Leo could feel his inner heart. It was a little chaotic for a moment, because St. Francis' breathing also became a lot quicker, and this situation continued until Leo finally finished speaking, and even after it was finished, he had not recovered.
After a while, St. Francis’ breathing calmed down a little, and he recovered from his contemplation, and he looked at Leo with a complicated look, opened his mouth to say something, but didn’t know how to speak. After a little silence, he sighed heavily and said: "The value of the information you provide is so great that it is unimaginable, even I can't make an assessment."
"It seems that I am lucky, the value of these materials is greater than a copper horn." Leo smiled, and then asked directly: "So now how do you pay my remuneration?"
"The property in my hands is far from being able to compensate for the value of this document~EbookFREE.me~ St. Francis answered Leo honestly.
Leo smiled and said, "Will you want to tell me, do you want to pay the bill?"
"Of course not." Saint Francis shook his head, thought a little, then stood up, walked to the desk, squatted down, searched carefully in the desk, and then took it out of it. A very thick notebook is almost comparable to a textbook according to the thickness of the notebook.
When he took out this notebook, Saint Francis showed a deep memory on his face. It seemed that this notebook had an extremely important position in his heart, so that he also became hesitant now.
But in the end, he made a decision and took the notebook to Leo. He handed the notebook to Leo and said, "Although in my opinion, this note is more valuable than the information you provided. It's a lot worse, but I believe this note will definitely compensate you for the information you just provided."
Leo took this note in doubt, and saw that the cover of the note was made of an animal skin similar to snake skin or lizard skin. Although the production process is simple, it is clumsy, and it is also used on the cover. A Gamorian variant is written with the name of the owner of the note, Conte Solon.
