Hawke sits at the door of the ore warehouse. This warehouse is located at the entrance of a mountain road that enters Montenegro. This mountain road has just been repaired and is relatively wide. It can be easily passed by bullock carts. There is a tributary of the Kalma River more than 20 meters away from the warehouse. The miners at Camp No. 3 transport the mined ore from the mountain road and transport them to the downstream smelter by flat-bottomed boat.
Since the transportation team does not travel frequently, the fleet only comes once every three days, and the warehousing statistics are also quite simple, so Hawke is actually quite idle.
At this time, he was pressing a stack of dried yellow leaves with his fingers and rolling them into a long strip. This is self-made soil smoke, and the smoke he uses is not real tobacco, but a broad-leaved plant called "worms" that is a specialty of Montenegro. There is very little real tobacco in the border town of Floro, and local people often dry this spicy leaf to enjoy it. This little trick quickly spread to the resettlement camp. Hawke was not very young, but his cigarette addiction was not small. In his early years in the South, most of the few remaining properties were used by him to buy good tobacco and wine. After being a slave by accident, he has never opened a meat dish. When he arrived here, there was not much tobacco supply in the camp, so he also learned that the Montenegrin was able to support himself.
Soon, a burnt yellow cigarette was rolled up. Hawk picked up three slender grass stalks and the cigarettes in the front, middle and back three positions, which is also the traditional practice of Montenegro. When the fire hits the grass stems, the compressed leaves will suddenly loosen, and from the front, it looks like a burning flower is blooming. Therefore, the locals call smoking a cigarette "blowing three flowers".
However, Hawker lit a cigarette and blew a flower before being accidentally interrupted. Lorenzo covered his nose and flashed into the warehouse. He looked disgusted and threw cigarettes from two camps on the table.
"Nearly pinch that and smoke me to death."
Hawk took a deep breath before throwing the cigarette on the ground reluctantly, stamped it out with his feet, and then put the two cigarettes given by Lorenzo into his pocket. He smiled and said, "You don't understand, this is enough."
Lorenzo didn't even bother to tease him, waving his hands to disperse the smoke in front of him, and he opened the door to see: "How about camp No. 3's manpower recruitment place?"
"Now people in the camp are hard to find." Hawkla took a chair and asked Lorenzo to sit down and talk: "Otherwise, these Montenegrin people are still very good at managing people. Those mud legs are now over The days are much stronger than before they were slaves. What else can they be dissatisfied with? If you want to persuade them to work with the magician, that is a dream. If you are dissatisfied, most of us are people like us, but we Such people ’s congresses are a bit knowledgeable. It ’s not easy to persuade them to make trouble. "
"How many people are you looking for below?"
"More than twenty."
"Too few, at least fifty people are needed."
"I also know that there are few people with little momentum, but" Hawke gestured an empty hand gesture. "Someone likes the existing benefits."
Lorenzo sighed, took a purse from his arms, and threw it to Hawke.
Hawke caught the purse and opened his mouth to look inside, whistling uncontrollably.
"Thirty silver coins. It's enough for you to do a good job." Lorenzo's eyes stayed on the purse for a while, and said, "This is the last sum of money, you save it!"
"I've been waiting for this for a long time. No one will have trouble with the money. One silver coin can make the farmer sell his life, and two silver coins can let the soldiers bend over. Rest assured, I promise that people will surprise the Montenegrin that day. . "
Lorenzo nodded: "When things are done, your benefits will surprise you."
"However. You are willing to pay such a large amount of money." Hawke hesitated suddenly, holding the purse, "Will there be no real danger?"
"How come, we are just fighting for the treatment we deserve. Of course, nobles, mages, and warriors should not be left in the middle of these broken things every day and do the same things as those untouchables. This is not only a matter of situation, but also honor Question! You must not back down at that time, haven't you enough of this library manager? "Lorenzo asked back.
Hawk glanced at his warehouse and laughed somewhat self-deprecatingly, "The longer you stay here, the more lazy you are to move."
"Hawk. I heard that your ancestors won the knighthood because of military merit?"
"The Battle of the Coconut City. My great-great-great-great-grandfather touched the dark city and ran hundreds of kilometers with his feet. He brought in reinforcements and got a baronial title. Later, a generation of family owners sold their lives to the city owner before they were awarded the title of Viscount. Hawke looked at the mountains beyond the door of the warehouse, and said with a sigh of emotion: "But since I lost my house and became a slave, I don't want these things in the face. Lorenzo, It ’s easy for everyone to discuss things about pulling people to make money, and it ’s okay to make troubles, but do n’t call me for desperate things. I ’m not a crazy warrior.
Seeing Hawk's slowly sinking face, Lorenzo snorted at the corner of his mouth: "When did I put you in danger? Just do what you promised us. Don't mention this, and Let me tell you, what is the news about Camp 3 recently? "

Lorenzo and Hawke chatted for about a quarter of an hour, then hurriedly left the warehouse. He followed the forest road into the mountain and walked on a path for about twenty minutes. I walked up and trudged for a while, and came to a plain mountain side by the road. Seeing no one on the left and right, he reached out and fumbled for a while on the stone wall, then took a round piece of iron from the pocket on the inside of his jacket and pressed it to a specific position on the stone wall.
A moment later, a complex law array appeared on the stone wall. After the streamer between the law arrays was running, the law array gradually disappeared. Instead, a light film appeared on the stone wall. Lorenzo walked into the light film. The light film gradually disappeared.
When Lorenzo walked out from the other end of the light film, the surrounding light was dark. After spending a few seconds to adapt to the surrounding environment, he found that it was a wooden house with several armed soldiers and mages in the room. Weapons, looked at him closely.
There was no word on either side until the light film behind Lorenzo dissipated and the talents relaxed.
"Galdo, don't worry, I don't have a tail behind me." Lorenzo looked around the environment and wondered, "Why did you change the stronghold? Move the teleportation array around every day, is it effortless?"
"I heard that the spies of the pseudo-god are also staring at the Master of Montenegro, and we have to be careful." The leading warrior Gardo inserted his sword into the sheath and answered seriously. If Xiao Chen is here, he will surely recognize this "troubadour" who once happened to be on the road.
"There is such a wind, but we are all very careful and don't need to be too nervous. Changing the stronghold suddenly will also attract the attention of interested people." Lorenzo said.
"This is what the third-order priest Lord Sophia means." Gardo did not intend to explain more.
"Master Sophia is here?" Lorenzo's face stretched, and his attitude suddenly became serious. "Well, when I didn't say that."
"Master Sophia is waiting for you next door," said a man dressed as a mage, who was another Letroona bard.
Lorenzo followed Letona to the next room, a bald-headed and white-haired old man, a freckled teenage girl and a third-order priest Sofia sitting around a round table, all three dressed in ordinary clothes Farm clothes are also very temperamental.
The old man is Russell, a second-order priest. He is the maker and manipulator of the beacon. In the face of a girl, the high-level assassin Dala, like Lorenzo, has already infiltrated the slave camp, but acted alone, not under his jurisdiction.
Seeing Lorenzo coming in, Sofia said with a smile: "Wisdom is supreme, Lorenzo, come and sit down. This time you dive into the camp of these foreign magicians personally, the courage is commendable, how is the harvest?"
"Wisdom is supreme, Master Sofia. That is not my courage. Everything is in the calculation of the God of Wisdom." Lorenzo saluted Sofia, nodded to the other two, and then sat on the remaining chair on.
"Lorenzo, I have been looking forward to your progress since the temple was over. Now that the time for our operation is approaching, I personally brought all the people involved in the operation. Now, talk about the specific situation. Tao Is the standard set? "Although the priest of Sofia looks ordinary, but when she looks closely, she shows a wisdom pearl everywhere, and the eyes are more like blue gems, giving people a feeling of seeing through everything .
"Yes. I thought of sneaking into the castle and placing the signpost in a very obscure warehouse. As for the personnel, we developed about 200 more dissatisfied people in the five camps. These people will be us. The main force of the incident, they will at least cause a riot of more than 500 people. This will give us enough opportunities to break in. "Lorenzo replied respectfully.
"How many of us are involved? I mean people who are completely under our control and can complete tasks at any cost."
"This is about ten." Afraid that the priest is dissatisfied, Lorenzo explained, "But these people are really elite, and I have revealed our covert identity to a limited extent."
"What do you mean?" Asked Sophia the priest.
"The Repulse Bay Mercenary Corps. It is most convenient for us to block the southern city-state as a front. These places are already chaotic, and it is difficult to find out the truth."
The priest of Sophia yelled recklessly and asked again: "Is that enough preparation now?"
"How many people did you bring in the end?"
"The two teams of temple warriors, one can be led by Gardo and the other by Juan."
A squad is ten people, and each temple warrior has the worst low-level grudge. Actually with so many people, Lorenzo figured it out and said, "Then I think I need to prepare some more days."
