Chapter 289: Trace each other

Leaving the Temple of the Winter Goddess Orel, Powell Jr. returned to the street. The excitement of being applauded by the superiors quickly dissipated. He stood on the street and meditated, thinking over and over again how to proceed to investigate the whereabouts of Victor Hugo.
According to the information provided by the old wizard Bank, the black market trading of Banshee Castle has been particularly hot recently. A large number of materials are being continuously transported out of the city. This behavior is even semi-public, because there are many powerful people in the city behind it.
The public behavior of open enemies is not subject to the slightest restraint, which is what Louis Phils fears most. Powell Jr. was also shocked after he understood the traffic and capital flow of black market transactions.
Victor Hugo is really a big deal, just by spending money to smash the banshee fortress into a big hole. There are soul crystals backed by it, and a succubus provides a transportation channel. Zhou Qingfeng can deal with all kinds of low prices in the north Local produce is easily transported to the south.
This resale is several times the huge profits.
In Powell's opinion, a 50% premium opened up to buy Northland specialty products is like bankrupted suicide. But Zhou Qingfeng not only lost money, but also made a lot of money. In turn, he bought the food cloths that the merchants finally brought to the female banshee for several times the price.
It seems that Zhou Qingfeng did not make any money in this one in and one out, and only the wealthy ladies of the Fortress of the Banshee followed the fortune. But the Phils family did not get any gains, but the loss of blood was enough to make Louis Phils hate.
Louis Phils is currently the new owner. Out of prudence, he did not force the old powerwoman in Banshee Castle to stop trading with Zhou Qingfeng. Even if he ordered it, it would be useless. Blocking people's wealth like killing parents would only intensify the conflict.
Powell Jr. was ordered to investigate, and he did not dare to break into the black market casually to get people to inquire. He could only return silently to the residence along the street to discuss with his brothers who were equally troubled.
Someone came to Zhou Qingfeng's subordinates from the black market, some suggested tracking the transportation fleet, and others thought of accepting recruits and mixing them into the trainees. But these ideas were rejected by Powell Jr.
"You don't understand Victor Hugo's horror. He has a mental power called" Holy Light "that can easily identify people with different hearts. When I joined the crusade, there was a guy named Fabro. Remind repeatedly. "
Powell Jr. once again talked about his many encounters with Zhou Qingfeng, and about his unlucky deeds that he has repeatedly defeated. Several of his brothers were silent for a while, remembering the moment when their daddy was sprayed to death by Dragon Breath.
"Facing the enemy, we certainly can't win. But we just have to find Victor Hugo." The little Powell knew what they were thinking when he looked at the expressions of his brothers. Not on us. "
"What would we do if we wanted to find him without alarming Victor Hugo?" A brother asked.
Powell Jr. has been meditating for a long time, struggling to remember the half month he spent as a companion to Zhou Qingfeng, and finally only had an idea, "Maybe we can only find our goal through our habits."
"What life habits?"
"Victor Hugo has a very special aristocratic habit that I have never seen in others. For example, he is too clean, very picky about food, and too kind to pariahs."
The brothers looked at each other and did not know how to find targets that met these requirements.
Powell Jr. is now a formal knight at this moment. The promotion of his status makes him even more hateful to Zhou Qingfeng, who knows his details. "
The brothers looked at each other and nodded slightly.
While the Powell family was racking their brains, Zhou Qingfeng also quietly returned from the lumber yard outside the city to the banshee city. He stood again in the darkness on the city wall, and stared at a tower not far away.
Behind Zhou Qingfeng is Adrian. The clown relied on abundant funds and seemed to be the leader of the city fox club in the Banshee Fort. He even had a way to collude with the people in the city's main government and spy directly on the confidential information of the Phils family.
"It's not hard to listen to the news in the city. The Phils family can't take care of everyone. There are a lot of servants and helpers who are willing to provide daily observations and information in exchange for one or two silver coins. . "
Adrian said with pride, Zhou Qingfeng's tasks were his best. He was a slick fisherman, "I found some old servants of the Phils family, and they have interesting memories of the past."
The life expectancy in the North is low, and most ordinary people do not live to be thirty. Adrian has found an old chef who has lived for more than sixty years, has served three generations of homeowners in the Phils family, and has even seen the demon invasion.
"The old chef is not worried about eating and drinking, and he is still healthy now. He said that when the human coalition resisted the invasion of demons, 17 large fortresses were built in the north. After the war, these forts were gradually converted into 17 cities in the north.
The demon army was driven back to the abyss, but many demon and their descendants were scattered and hidden. Someone must stay to guard and clean up. The first generation of the Phils family was a legendary hero left that year.
The remaining defenders hunted down the demon and his descendants from the beginning. It was only when peace came and the pressure subsided that the human coalition was dissolved. Many things have changed, even reversed. "
Adrian stopped and shrugged. "The old chef refused to say what happened in the reverse. When he was anxious, he scolded people in the southern principalities for betrayal, and said that he wanted to know the secrets. Let me ask Bank . "
There is only one of the top of Banshee Fortress called Bank.
The streets of the city are lit with bonfires, and a faint light can see a high tower standing in the center of the city. It was the earliest building in Banshee Fortress, a wizard's tower. On the first day of Zhou Qingfeng's arrival, Zhou Qingfeng once stood under the tower for sightseeing.
Adrian looked forward along Zhou Qingfeng's eyes and whispered, "Her Hugo, shouldn't you really go to Bank, known as the strongest wizard in the North, right? He was a member of the Human Alliance at that time, yes The only legend in the North that is alive. "
At that time, in order to resist the demon army, human beings gathered almost half of Feren's elite combat power, and it was by no means weak to survive the war.
Bank's name is a lot, and it certainly isn't a fool. It was really difficult to break into the tower of the wizard he guarded.
Zhou Qingfeng turned his head backwards. In the shadow came the voice of the halfling girl, "Don't look at me. I ran with you the last time, but when I met the descendants of the evil insect, I almost died. This time I will not follow you to make trouble."
Zhou Qingfeng said "um" and didn't move. He wasn't so stupid, and he directly challenged the wizarding tower of a legendary sorcerer, which was no different from finding death. The investigation into the Iron Curtain can only come to an end.
But based on their clues, the old wizard who was active during the invasion of the demon is likely to know something. It's just that Zhou Qingfeng is too far away from his rank, and he will be afraid that there is no way to get the other side.
"Forget it, it is very rewarding now." Zhou Qingfeng thought for a while, but decided to give up the idea of ​​taking risks. The green crystals that he had accumulated before are exhausted in repeated tossing, and the modification of the rules has also broken the channel for easy access. This caused him to lose an important killer.
"Sofia, let us know that the staff in Banshee Fort are ready to evacuate. When you see it, take it. It is time to stir up the war in the entire North." Zhou Qingfeng turned around and jumped off the wall. Adrian and Kelly also followed.
At this time, Professor Zheng Zheng, who had been living in Zhou Qingfeng's mind for nearly a month, suddenly said, "Xiao Zhou, I have roughly browsed the content of your" gate of truth "and listed a research plan.
This is a long process that requires a lot of patience and investment. In the first step, I will transform myself into a ghost and work hard for the next few years or decades to eventually become a Lich. "
Lich? !!
