Chapter 90: Chivalry is harmful
ββWhen the strong tiger man waved his hand and made the [Let's go] gesture and was about to turn around. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Deputy Head of Tiger, Your Excellency Eshuin I also brought it here, and I have already done all the things that the head of the regiment has explained. Then please follow the agreement in advance, and let me go to rescue my sister Nia in a group. β
Sokite hurriedly ran in front of him, his eyes wincing as he glanced at the orcs around him, and said in embarrassment.
"Hmph, little man. The head of the regiment has instructed that he will deal with it naturally after the incident is over, your kid's sister seems to be doing well, if we can cooperate happily with His Excellency Eshuin, then she will not have to come back. β
"It's not the same as saying yes! Youβyou're not trying to use Nia to curry favor with that skeleton ......!"
Hearing the tiger man say this with a smile on his face, Sokate's face seemed to turn pale.
However, the tiger man, who was the deputy head of the thief group, ignored him.
"As you heard, Lord Esthein. The head of the regiment instructed him to be very optimistic about the bag of magic crystals you handed over as a sample, and if we can cooperate happily, it will be a gift. Feel free to call that cat-man girl. β
Turning his gaze to us, he smiled meaningfully, but after one look at me, he immediately withdrew it.
I always felt insulted and wanted to beat him.
But I really heard something terrible, it is worthy of a group of thieves who put interests first, and this guy Sokite was sold by his own backer like this.
But this is also expected, but I didn't expect them to do it so badly.
[How's that, boy, I'm starting to rejoice in betraying these guys now.] You're doing a good job as a double agent, and I pretty much appreciate you. Don't worry, I said a long time ago that we are a promising and conscientious enterprise. ]
Hearing my teasing from the soul link, Sokat had an indescribable look of loss on his face.
[Although I had guessed that even if I betrayed Your Excellency Esshoin, Captain Matt would not be so happy to send me additional manpower...... I didn't expect him to abandon us a long time ago, we have been thieves under him for more than ten years, but this bastard ......!]
Trembling with extreme anger, Sokite bit her lip unwillingly.
It seems that this picture is not exactly acted.
"Hmph, leave that cat-human crumbs in place, calm him down, and leave him alone. Anyway, his soul is still in our hands, and it is impossible to run away no matter what, let's go-!!"
After saying this, he also retreated behind us intentionally or unintentionally, probably to prevent us from breaking through.
It's so well thought out.
By the time he got to the carriage on Exile Street, Soquat had already told him that Matt had told him to take us to the ambush spot.
He seemed pleased with the bag of magic crystals I gave to Sokite to seduce him.
And I asked Soquette to tell him that we don't have many magic crystals, but they are all high-quality goods. Needless to say, the source is unknown, and there is currently no way to make a move.
Judging from the fact that he ordered his subordinates to set a trap, it is estimated that he can also see how much interest there is behind this transaction.
But we decided to do it anyway.
One of the purposes was to give Paul a little test of the depth of the water for this group of thieves.
Although we don't know the specific reason for Matt's ambush, we are here to negotiate, and he is just out of a desire to add some bargaining chips to himself in the situation of Ma Wei.
To put it bluntly, it is estimated that he wants to properly show his strength in this way.
Not only would it be no good to take us down, but we would have to fight against a high-ranking undead like the Death Knight, and no one should be so stupid.
Even if we are really unlucky, this group of thieves is extremely deep, and it hides strong people that Paul can't beat. Then continue to maintain the superficial identity of the lawless magic crystal businessman, and pay the money to keep you safe.
Since you can guarantee your safety no matter how you calculate, you don't have to worry about it.
"That's our stronghold up ahead, Lord Aesiin. It's broken, but I can only deign you to be there, so please come along, the boss has been waiting for you in the basement for a long time. β
After being surrounded by a large group of orcs for some distance, we also arrived at our destination, the stronghold of Matt's thieves.
"It's remote enough, well, it's a place where the rats in the gutter live. β
Glancing coldly at his surroundings, Paul sneered mercilessly.
He seemed to be a little angry from the beginning.
There is no way to do it, after all, there will be ragged boys and girls of all races on the road at any time trembling and falling on the side of the road, most of them are children who are handcuffed by slaves, and they are being squeezed by these orcs.
It seems that this group of thieves is still engaged in the slave trade, and it is really not a good bird.
And then it became what it is now.
Paul was originally regarded as a paladin of the Holy See, and the son of the presiding judge of the Holy See, who received the most orthodox knightly education since he was a child, and he would not be calm when he saw the constant scenes of bullying the weak in front of him.
It is even said that it is already on the verge of an explosion.
If I hadn't been telling him to calm down, I guess the thieves would have been removed from the list tomorrow.
"What are you talking about, don't think we're scared of ...... if you're a Death Knight."
Hearing Paul's speech full of gunpowder, a member of the cannon fodder thieves who was standing near us put on a very arrogant expression, as if he wanted to teach us some lesson.
Then, Paul seems to have drawn his sword......
Ah, really, guys from other worlds really don't know how to cherish life.
"Wind.tooth.edge"
"You, you guy dare, dare to do it in public. Put Sheehan's ...... Brothers, don't, don't play cards, Sheehan's head is flying to your ass-!!"
It seems that some people have an opinion, but I think headless orcs are quite artistic.
Hearing the roar of the orc cannon fodder, the surrounding orcs all came back to their senses, and those orcs who were resting in this stronghold dispersed solemnly, and then pulled out their weapons to form an encirclement network.
But it feels good that the magic pool has deepened, and it's not at all as constrained as it was in White Oak.
What a bunch of guys who don't know how to repay their kindness.
"Hmph, it looks like we're being underestimated. You don't think we have a numerical advantage, do you? No kidding, we're undead, and we're a combination of a Death Knight and a necromancer! Think about who has the numerical advantage. β
Damn, why are these orcs so stupid.
If Paul were to draw his sword, all it would take was a horizontal slash that would send out the fighting spirit, and you idiots would really be turned into orcs, zombies, and skeletons.
While increasing the number of undead scourge is also good for my strength, there is no need to plan so much.
If I had known this, it would have been better to come over from the beginning.
Damn, I didn't know in advance that this group of thieves was also involved in the slave trade. No, I miscalculated by forgetting to ask Soquet, otherwise I wouldn't have brought Paul with me.
It would be a ...... for a guy like him to abide by [the knightly precepts] and not save the weak
Impossible.
"Tiger man over there, take care of your men. This time it's a warning, if there is a next time. Maybe you want to see if a magician like the Death Knight can turn this place into a dead place. β
At this point, I can only try to see if I can scare the strong tiger man.
If it doesn't work out, it's better to expand the undead scourge.
