Chapter 1357: Xiaoguaner

When the battle under Vatican was in full swing, General Verapuni, the commander of the Semitic Western Front, did not know that another war had already begun in his newest fief, and the Kingdom of Ripoll had quietly begun.
At this time, the center of the Kingdom of Ripoll, the city of Ripoll was raining heavily.
The heavy rain seemed to be pouring down directly from mid-air, and it fell on the ground with a huge ‘crushing’ sound.
The rain washes everything on the ground, trees, houses, ground······
The stagnant water on the ground was getting deeper and deeper, and soon passed the foot, and it was still rising.
Rainwater flows on the street like a stream, and the poor drainage system of the city makes it difficult for rainwater to accumulate and drain away.
A dazzling bluish-white electric light instantly illuminates the earth, and then, an ear-splitting roar blasts at low altitude: ‘Kacha...,
At the moment when the electric light was shining, a palace under construction in the distance revealed its tall and gorgeous appearance, and immediately sank into the darkness.
Even with a glimpse in the blink of an eye, you can see the grandeur of the palace, even if it is still under construction, the dome of the main hall is already soaring.
On the entire continent, such a magnificent palace is rare.
This represents the brilliance of the imperial attitude, and shows the prosperity and abundance of the new kingdom.
The thunder rumbling, like a huge wheel, rolled over the city, gradually away.
At this time, in Ripoll City, all houses were closed with their doors closed. In the whole city, there were almost no open shops, and the whole Xiacheng was like a dead city.
Although the old Joseph's inn in the west of the city was not in this list, he still gritted his teeth and insisted on opening the door, but the gray-haired boss sat behind the counter and looked at the empty street with a sigh.
He stared blankly for a long time, then turned his head and stared blankly at the rain running down the eaves. He couldn't help sighing again, and muttered: "It's a dog, the demons don't give a way to survive. ·Business is not good, and now even God is against me."
With that, I picked up the teapot and took a sip of the tea. But I found that the teapot was already cold, but I couldn’t bear to pour it out. I couldn’t help but sigh again.
He turned around and scanned the hall.
The hall was empty, except that there was a famous painting by Monet "The Fallen Big Wave Madonna" on the opposite wall. (Have you seen "French Pavilion"?)
The only famous man was also lying on the table, his head dozing off little by little.
"It's impossible for guests to come. Forget it, close the door." The boss murmured in a low mood, and then exclaimed: "Parker...Parker!"
The dozing buddy shook suddenly, jumped up, and yelled in a dazed voice, "Here is a guest, please come inside, please come inside~!"
The boss glared at him irritably, and cursed: "You slacker. Be careful I deduct your wages."
The shop clerk showed a flattering smile, nodded and bowed: "Old uncle, don't you just take a nap?
Besides, since the demons occupied this land, no business has come to the door for most of the month. Our business is almost impossible to continue. I say you can close the door as soon as possible.
"If you don't want to die, don't scream from the demons. Now they are the masters of the Semi tribe, and they have to beheaded when they are heard." The boss yelled, grabbed a cup and tried to smash it.
The boss laughed and cursed twice, and then said: "Forget it. I won't make trouble with you. It seems that there is no business today. You closed the gate and closed it today. It's raining so heavily that you can't even do business at the side gate."
At the moment, the guy cautiously poked his head out from behind the pillar and saw that the boss really didn't intend to chase him down. Then he smiled, and then ran to the door, reaching out to close the door.
The heavy door shaft made a creak.
Seeing that the door was about to close, only a small slit remained.
At this moment, a thick arm suddenly stretched out from the dark rain curtain, one against the door, and then pushed open the door forcefully.
The guy behind the door was pushed back a few steps by the sudden force, and almost didn't sit on the ground.
A burly man walked in from the darkness, with a large hat on his head, his whole body was soaked with rain, and his clothes were dripping dripping.
Just the effort of standing there has formed a puddle of water on the ground.
"Hey hey, I said you, we are closed and we are no longer doing business." The guy jumped out from behind the door and shouted.
"Hot water." The brawny man said with a hoarse voice.
The man was stunned.
The brawny man turned his face, stared at the man with fierce eyes under his hat, and repeated: "Hot water~! Hurry up, uncle, I want to take a bath."
The dude was taken aback by the fierce light in his eyes, and took two steps back. Then he felt a bit ashamed to do so, and said, "We are off..."
The boss ran out of the counter quickly, kicked the guy's butt, and cursed: "Fuck your grandma's eggs, there is no reason for business people to drive guests out."
Then he bowed to the guest and said loudly: "Please come inside the guest. That little new here, don't be familiar with him. Please inside."
Immediately after turning around, he kicked the dumbfounded man again, and scolded, "Clean the guest room and prepare hot water."
"Please inside, please inside, you are right. In Ripoll, my old Joseph's hotel is the cleanest and most affordable." The boss boasted about his hotel's long history and led the strong man to the back. Said: "Where do you come from, guest? On a rainy day, you are on your way."
"West." The brawny man said casually: "Hurry? No, I have reached my destination."
The boss's face changed slightly, and he gave a dry smile.
Half an hour later, the strong man wrapped in a bathrobe walked into the hall. Although he only had this thin robe on his body, Hao didn't feel cold at all when he saw what the strong man meant.
He sat down on the chair with a great deal of money, put his hands on his knees, and said to the hotel owner: "Good wine and good food, I'm hungry, uncle."
The innkeeper leaned forward, with a helpless, bitter smile on his face, and said: "Don't hide from the distinguished guests, there are only bacon, some miscellaneous noodles and home-brewed potato wine in the small shop, which is economical.
The brawny man frowned, and said dissatisfied: "Bacon, miscellaneous noodles, potato wine...
You who open for business only have this stuff. Don’t you think I can’t afford it? "
As he said, his face changed and he slapped the table suddenly.
The boss waved his hand in shock, and said anxiously: "No, no, absolutely not."
"Not a Demon." The guy murmured fiercely behind him.
The boss quickly winked at the guy and motioned him not to speak.
The strong man sneered and said, "What happened to the Semi?"
The boss sighed and said: "Since the heavenly army of the seat entered the city and your majesty ascended the throne, the city's materials have been given priority to supply the army of the seat.
Your Majesty has just promulgated the law. Ordinary people are not allowed to eat white rice and white noodles. Otherwise, they have violated some special economic laws. Once caught, they will either have to go to jail, or they will have to use a whip and be fined. Hard labor.
It’s not that there’s nothing in the shop, but there are really only these things on the market. "
The brawny man curled his lips, muttered in a low voice, and said, "What a bastard..."
I don’t know who I’m scolding. Then he said, "Then come here."
"Okay." The guy immediately agreed, and then ran from the back kitchen and the hall diligently, placing a few plates and a wine bottle.
The brawny man looked at the dry and dark bacon, like wooden scum, shook half of the turbid liquid in the bottle, and muttered dissatisfiedly: "At this level, it's far worse than Fengye Danlin's. ."
The boss and the buddy watched the strong man eating alone in the hall one after another. A few minutes later, the strong man swept away the food on the table and wiped his mouth.
The boss rolled his eyes and then brought another bottle of wine, grinned and said, "This is for you."
While talking, he sat opposite the strong man, and said kindly: "The accent of the guests is not like a local. It's not safe to run around outside."
The strong man looked at him coldly, suddenly smiled, and said indifferently: "It's okay, I have a pass."
The boss showed an unexpected expression, and deliberately or unintentionally glanced at the guy in the distance, then he picked up the wine bottle with a dry smile, poured wine into the glass in front of the brawny man, and said: "That's it, you come here. Does Ripoll visit relatives or do business? I know this city well."
The strong man laughed and said, "Find someone."
"Looking for someone?" The boss put down the bottle, clapped his hands, smiled like a flower, and said: "Then you are in the right place, in and out of Ripoll, there is nothing I don't know about. You are the first Come on again.
You talk about who to look for, maybe I can show you the way. Let you avoid the wrong road.
Don't you know, now the world has changed. Ripoll City is a mixed bag, and it's extremely uneven. Even a seven or eight-year-old boy dare to lie with his eyes open. "
The brawny man immediately laughed and said, "Don't be so troublesome. Actually, I'm looking for you this time."
As soon as the voice fell, his face changed and he calmly looked at the boss.
The boss was stunned for a moment, laughed in a few seconds, looked at the brawny man and said, "You are kidding."
The brawny man smiled and shook his head, and said, "It's not a joke, I'm looking for you, aren't you the head of the underground resistance organization?"
The owner of the hotel changed his face as if he heard a thunderbolt.
He kicked the stool down and jumped up, and the probing hand took out a short sword from behind.
The innkeeper who looked like an old man immediately changed. He was holding a dagger with a grim face, and pointed at the strong man and cursed: "When you say that you have a pass, you know that you are an adulterer. I will tell you the truth. You came to the wrong place. That's it~!
I have killed more than one of the puppies of the demon clan, so don't expect to get out of this door today. "
The strong man raised his hands and shook his hands to the boss to show that he had no weapons. He smiled and said, "Hey, relax, relax, the guy behind the crossbow is trembling, I don’t want to hang on this inexplicably. A ghost place. I'm dead, maybe humans won't be saved."
The boss glanced, and saw the shop assistant behind the strong man shaking his hands back and forth with the crossbow and arrow.
The strong man patted him on the shoulder and said kindly, "Old Joseph, right?"
The inn clerk finally installed the crossbow with trembling, raised the crossbow and shouted sternly: "Don't let go of my old uncle~!"
The strong man smiled and stepped back two steps, and said: "I'm looking for people with eagles carved on their foreheads, but they hide too deeply. Someone told me to find you first. Who can lead the way?"
It took a long time for the old Joseph to come back to his senses. He frowned and thought for a long time, waved to the guy, and said, "Put the guy down."
He looked at the strong man up and down, and said to himself: "I can't make any waves by measuring you alone."
Then he hooked his finger and said, "Follow me."
"You have to change my clothes first, and I don't want to get in the rain anymore."
Old Joseph snorted coldly, then turned and went out.
A few minutes later, the old Joseph and the strong man boarded a carriage together, and the man sat on the opposite side with his crossbow and arrows.
Old Joseph took out a black headgear, stuffed it into the strong man's hand, and said unceremoniously: "Put it on."
With a helpless hand, the brawny man put the black headgear on his head, and the simple carriage went round the narrow streets under the rain.
It took several hours for the carriage to stop in a yard, and Old Joseph pushed the strong man out of the cart and walked into the room.
There were a few quick and deep conversations in the room. Just as the strong man twisted his body, a cold blade was attached to his neck, and someone said solemnly, "Don't move."
After staying in the room for a full two hours, he was pushed into a car again. After running for an unknown period of time, he changed to another car in the middle, which shows that these people are very cautious.
Finally, the strong man felt himself sitting in a dull, silent room.
For a while, a voice suddenly sounded on the other side, saying: "Who are you?"
The burly man tore off the hood on his head and found that he was locked in a secret room with only one door. There was an oil lamp on the table, and someone was spying from the door.
He dissatisfied: "Hey, I said, can I change a place? It's boring here."
"No, for everyone's safety, you'd better not see us." A low voice came from outside the door.
"Okay, okay," the strong man murmured dissatisfiedly, "Are you a company member? I don't want to take a car anymore. I said, you guys are too careful, just look at me and come here carelessly." .
"Unprofessional." Someone commented disdainfully.
There was clearly a commotion outside, and it seemed that he was right.
"Very good," the strong man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Please send a letter to your boss, password ‘recommendation letter. I will not speak until the correct code word is returned."
There were a few rapid whispers from the other side, and then all of them left.
The strong man was locked in the room, and someone in the middle gave him a meal.
I don't know how long it took, someone outside the secret room said: "Your Excellency, I want your password to be heard again."
"Recommendation letter." The brawny man said irritably, "I said, can you be more efficient. Are Lorraine's men just such a waste?"
"Okay," the voice outside the door was rather helpless, said: "The whisper, the little white rabbit is white and white."
The strong man said loudly: "No~!"
There were two jumping sounds outside the door.
The brawny man started to laugh, clapped his hands, and said, "Okay, that's it."
Immediately reported a series of numbers.
Finally said: "Did you write it down?"
The person outside the door retelled one side, turned around and left after confirming that it was correct.
The rest was waiting again. Just as the brawny man was picking his toes boredly, someone outside the door said: "Mr. Battusta, please put on your headgear."
"It's not fair," Batusta was not surprised at being called by his name, and he exclaimed dissatisfiedly: "I don't know what your names are yet?"
The people outside were silent for a moment~EbookFREE.me~ and said, "You can call me the section chief."
"Section chief." Battusa crooked his lips and said, "What kind of bad name is this."
"We don't have a name, only a code name." The section chief said coldly.
Batusta was once again taken into the carriage. Before closing the door, the section chief suddenly said: "In the future, someone from the company will contact you, so there is no need to go through dangerous middlemen.
Also, the boss said, thank you. "
Batusta froze for a moment, then shook his head slightly, and said, "This is also for ourselves."
The information transmitted by the black band was sent back to the headquarters of Neidel's venture capital company within a day, and the company's general manager Belen himself squatted at the telegraph station, waiting for the news.
When a long list of boring numbers was sent back by the telegraph, in the company's surprised eyes, the steady general manager Belen immediately grabbed the telegram and rushed out.
An hour later, Lorraine threw away the scriptures and set a piece of paper translated by himself in the ashtray and lit it.
It was written in scribbled handwriting: "October 22, the third group of Semitic troops has arrived and will take Vatican directly."
If Veraprani could see this note, he would jump up in shock. The content on it was exactly the same as when he received the top secret, and only the highest-ranking Semitic generals could receive the news.
In the plan of the high priest, this group of fresh troops, with a population of more than 100,000 who have just arrived from the Semitic continent via the sea, will avoid the sight of mainland humans and land directly in Vatican via sea.
The army that is suddenly under Vatican, like a soldier, will surely catch the human defenders by surprise.
