Chapter 508 The Current Situation
At the same time, Wang Zhiran and others, who successfully infiltrated the dukedom, did not know that their whereabouts had been discovered, and they were still shopping happily.
Of course, this is not to take care of the shopping instinct of the girl, but because she is new to the dukedom, she is not familiar with this place, so she needs to travel a lot to get familiar with the terrain......
"Chi ...... Mograini, is this hairpin pretty?"
I saw Gui pick up a red hairpin from the stall of a roadside vendor and put it on his head, and asked with a smile at Wang Zhiran.
"Of course, that hairpin knows how to compliment the wearer's beauty. ”
Wang Zhiran showed a "sunny" smile on his face, and then took the initiative to face the middle-aged vendor and asked, "How much?"
Wang Zhiran, who knows Gui very well, of course knows that Gui has already liked that hairpin, and to this extent, even if Xiao Wang doesn't want to buy it, it's impossible!
As for the middle-aged peddler, who obviously had a lot of experience in life, the man and the woman in front of him immediately laughed treacherously, and said unhurriedly:
"Don't worry, sir, this hairpin is not expensive, it only sells for twenty copper plates. ”
What was the concept of twenty copper plates in the Uurith Empire?
If you take life on earth as an analogy, it is the price of a bowl of noodles at a noodle restaurant. The price of selling a bowl of noodles for a hairpin is clearly extortion!
However, this peddler is smart, and that is because the extortion price is not outrageous.
After all, what he sells is just a hairpin, and if the lion really opens his mouth, the other party won't want it. The price of a bowl of noodles, although obviously greater than the actual price of the hairpin, is by no means a price that ordinary people cannot afford.
So, Wang Zhiran could only force a smile in front of Gui, took out twenty copper plates from his pocket and threw them to the vendor, and then immediately picked up Gui, who was wearing a hairpin, and walked quickly out of the street.
Well, yes, the street where Xiao Wang and Gui are located just now is a famous commercial street on the west side of the dukedom, specializing in selling all kinds of small commodities.
With Gui's posture, if she is allowed to continue shopping, then the money in Wang Zhiran's pocket will probably be spent!
Wait a minute?
Why are there only two people, Wang Zhiran and Gui just now, where did the eldest cousin Jin Potian go?
Our eldest cousin, naturally, went to do something meaningful, after all......
Who let Jin Potian be a single dog, do you want him to stay by Wang Zhiran and Gui's side and watch the two of them release flash bombs!
Of course, this separation, the three of them are not unprepared, just like before, they have long established a spiritual connection between them, and they can contact at any time.
For example, now:
"Xiao Wang, how is the investigation in the west of the city?"
Jin Potian asked through a spiritual connection.
"There's a street of small goods......"
Wang Zhiran said: "Gui bought a lot of things......
Hearing this, Jin Potian, who was walking on the streets east of the city, immediately frowned.
I didn't expect that even if I was separated, I could still be a bad dog!
You dog men and women!
"Uh, Brother Jin, how are you scolding?"
Then, Gui's voice came to Jin Potian's mind.
"Smack!"
Potian couldn't help but pat his forehead with his hand, and this action even caused passers-by who didn't know the truth to look sideways, making him can't help but speed up his pace and leave the place.
Damn, we have a spiritual connection between us, and they know everything that is going on my head......
"Well, yes, what's wrong, brother?"
Wang Zhiran's voice came to Potian's mind again.
They heard that sentence too!
So, Jin Potian could only restrain the untimely thoughts in his mind and talked about business:
"I just walked around the east of the city, and I bought some newspapers and magazines to learn about the current state of the Uurith Empire recently. It's a pity that most of those publications are advertisements, such as magic vacuum cleaners, magic refrigerators, etc., ......"
Wang Zhiran couldn't help but interrupt: "So brother, have you found any useful clues?"
"Don't interrupt me, I was about to say it!"
Jin Potian said slowly: "Although there are many advertisements in those publications, they are not without dry goods. For example, the enthronement ceremony of the Empress Belda will be held in two weeks. ”
Wang Zhiran interrupted again: "We all know this news, aren't we here just for Berda!"
"I've told you everything, don't interrupt me!"
Jin Potian said dissatisfiedly: "What I really want to say is actually the current situation in Lear City, the capital of the Ulris Empire!"
"In a newspaper, I saw an article the size of dried tofu, which mentioned that recently in the imperial capital, there were often sightings of a scarlet monster at night, but the official, that is, the Minister of Support, Violet, claimed that it was a drunkard's hallucination, and that there was no scarlet monster at all. ”
At this point, Jin Potian paused deliberately, and then continued to say in his mind:
"But we all know what it is, right?"
Wang Zhiran nodded and responded in his mind:
"Of course, brother, we are special workers, and if we don't have a certain level of understanding of the information of the multiverse, we are not qualified to do this business at all!"
"That scarlet monster, I guess it must be the Abyss Demon, the bottom monster from the Abyss Hell. After all, the mastermind behind this incident is none other than the Prince of the Abyss, and even the subordinates of the Four Cowherds of the Abyss are here, so it is not surprising that he brought some Abyss Demons as thugs. ”
Gui, who was holding hands with Xiao Wang, suddenly asked:
"Zhiran, what are the Abyss Demons, are they powerful?"
Xiao Wang explained to his lover:
"Abyss Demons are the collective name of the demons at the bottom of the Abyss, their basic characteristics are that they are scarlet, and they are tall and strong, and they have brute strength. ”
"However, after all, the Abyss Demon is only a low-level monster, and in terms of individual strength, it is stronger than ordinary humans on the earth, but it is not as powerful as those powerful people. ”
"As for a magical world like the Elvin Continent, their strength is only at the gold level, even if it is measured by the local human power, their strength is only at the level of a middle-level officer. ”
Hearing this, a word popped into Gui's mind:
"Cannon fodder?"
"Yes!"
Wang Zhiran continued: "In the eyes of those big guys, the Abyss Demon is cannon fodder, except for the large number, there is nothing special. Of course, even the lowest abyss demon has a certain amount of wisdom, at least knowing how to distinguish the situation and cling to the upper level. ”
"In addition, the origin of the name Abyss Demon is just because others are too lazy to classify, so it is just a general term for the low-level monsters, if subdivided, there are many types of Abyss Demons, there are humanoids with two hands and two feet, and there are also strange-shaped alien species, and so on. ”
At this time, Jin Potian interjected: "As soon as the two of you speak for Mao, I feel like a flash is playing in front of me?"
"What?"
Gui and Wang Zhiran asked in unison.
"Damn, the woman sings and the husband follows!"
Jin Potian couldn't help blinking his eyes a few times, calming down the impact of the evil dog he received, but fortunately he had already walked to a no-man's corner on the side of the street at this time, so no one noticed his abnormal behavior.
As for the spiritual connection between the three of them, it calmed down for a while, and then Jin Potian continued:
"In short, judging from the information I have received so far, the Abyss Demons who came to the Elvin Continent this time should all be humanoids, that is, the type with two hands and two feet and a head, so it is more convenient to disguise themselves as humans and infiltrate. ”
"Okay!"
Wang Zhiran said: "Knowing yourself and knowing that you are invincible, it's time to collect specific information about the abyss forces." ”
Who knows, Jin Potian interrupted Wang Zhiran's words and said, "Hey, you two, how long are you going to go shopping, and don't look at what time it is." ”
"When?"
Just as Wang Zhiran finished speaking, his stomach "growled", which not only attracted the attention of Gui next to him, but also showed:
"Lunchtime!"
Moments later, the three met in a small restaurant and enjoyed a hearty lunch inside......
"Dry bread with salt, heated milk and a bowl of soup with a few slices of bleached meat. ”
Wang Zhiran looked at the thing in front of him, shook his head, and said helplessly: "Is this thing still called Fengsheng?"
"And the cook is still second-rate, and the same ingredients, I cook better than him!"
Jin Potian also pursed his lips, expressing helplessness.
There is no way, who let them only go to the restaurants of low-level civilians in order to hide their identities, how can the food there be compared with the top hotels!
Of course, it is not without purpose to come here, after all, a low-level restaurant like this has always been a mixed place, and it is also a good place to inquire about the news.
No, Jin Potian and Wang Zhiran are together, super hearing, collecting the conversations of everyone around them.
Sure enough, I heard a lot of news.
For example, two seemingly gangsters at the opposite table are talking:
"Hey, have you heard? Just now, the Duke ordered the south gate of the territory to be blocked from the imperial capital, and it is said that it was because a few wanted criminals had infiltrated the dukedom!"
Well?
A wanted criminal infiltrating the duke?
Are you talking about us?
And the two people sitting in the right corner, their words also caught Wang Zhiran's attention:
"In other words, for the enthronement ceremony of the princess, the security measures are very strict, and even the spatial teleportation ban has been made. ”
"Isn't it! Usually it is only for some core areas, but now that the entire imperial capital is banned, even civilian teleportation cannot be carried out, and it can only rely on ordinary vehicle transportation, which is too inefficient. ”
Violet would do this, it must be afraid that we will directly use the teleportation array to sneak into the imperial capital through spatial teleportation!
Ah, of course, for us, there is time just by walking.
Soon, enough information was gathered. Well, I guess after lunch, they left the small restaurant in good spirits.
"The south gate to the imperial capital is blocked, what should we do?"
Jin Potian said quietly in the spiritual connection as he walked.
"Actually, it's not hard for us to force out. ”
After thinking for a moment, Wang Zhiran said, "But I don't believe that Duke Caroline, a native of the Elwyn Continent, would be willing to listen to the words of the Four Cowherds of the Abyss and destroy her own world, which is not good for her. ”
"But the situation is stronger than the people. ”
Jin Potian continued: "Whether Caroline knows Violet's true identity or not, judging from the fact that she was kicked back into the fiefdom, she has been kicked out of the inner circle after the death of the previous emperor. ”
Wang Zhiran continued: "So, I think we can observe for a day and see the situation. ”
Jin Potian nodded and said, "Agreed, anyway, Caroline's own strength alone can't help us." ”
With that, the group came to a hotel.
Of course, the grade of this hotel is also relatively low, similar to a hotel like Homeinn in Huaxia.
At the front desk, after registering the pseudonyms they had prepared earlier: Lexa, Mograine and Whitemane, the three of them got two room keys and went to the corresponding room according to the room number engraved on the key.
The old rules, Jin Potian is one, Wang Zhiran and Gui are one.
The configuration of this hotel is ok, at least there is bathing equipment, just enough to wash away the dust. As time passed, the three of them finished their dinner and went back to their rooms to get ready to rest.
At least, nothing special has happened within the dukedom so far.
Until nightfall, when the moon hung in the sky, Jin Potian, who was lying alone on the bed in his room, used his perception ability to explore the surrounding situation, and suddenly found something terrible:
"Huh? The ban on space teleportation has been lifted?"
