Chapter 204: Urgency

♂?,,

"This ...... Are these people poisoned!?"

"I should have been killed and killed......

"Found the poisoned orb! Be careful, don't touch it!"

In the midst of the chaos, there wasn't much that Add could hear...... But clearly, the situation is not optimistic;

"Isn't this a member of our guild!?"

It seems that among these men in black, there are people from the Burning Flame Guild...... Sure enough, it has nothing to do with Changpo, Eddie thought;

But until there is sufficient evidence, it is better not to contact him;

As the salute ceased completely, the adventurers who had been avoiding it came over again and chattered and discussed;

"Why is there anyone who wants to make a move on Huofeng?"

"This must be because of the struggle for power! cough, I didn't believe it before!"

"That's all there is to it...... Who could it be?"

"I think the vice president of their guild is the most suspicious!"

Well...... It sounds like adventurers are also inclined to investigate the vice president;

Things should be going to fall into place after that, Eddie thought - judging by the scale of this operation, Changpo could be called to press down on the resources of the department;

Such a large stroke is naturally accompanied by huge flaws, and it is estimated that it will not take too much effort to investigate.

So, on the premise of ensuring the safety of the surroundings, let's listen to what the adventurers are discussing for a while-

"Ah, Big Brother Add!"

A soldier squeezed towards Add from the crowd, "Finally found!"

This...... It should be because the costumes of the three magic queens are too recognizable in the crowd.

I may also be targeted by Changpo, and this must be added to the future plan setting.

"What's the matter?" Eddie asked in a low voice as the soldiers approached;

"Lord Fire Phoenix in the castle wants to talk to you!"

Did she realize her mistake?

......

Eddie and his party followed the soldiers out of the crowd and into Cangliu Fort;

Compared with the steel and wood forts, this place is obviously more unpretentious - to put it bluntly, it lacks aristocratic temperament;

If you compare carefully, the level of interior decoration is about the same as the "castle" in Maple Town.

...... Could it be that the indoor situation is also affected by strength?

Ascending the stairs and coming to the living room, the fire phoenix, who had already changed his clothes, was waiting for Eddie and his party;

This time the others didn't have to wait outside the door, and the living room was fine for them.

At this time, even if it is a fire phoenix, it can no longer maintain the domineering posture before;

She knew very well that if it weren't for Eddie's presence, she would have been killed by the attackers.

“...... Thanks again. The fire phoenix stood up and bowed slightly to Eddie across the table;

Eddie knew that with the temperament of the fire phoenix, he would not normally salute people—but he knew that now was not the time to be entangled.

"You should take my word for it now. Add sighed, "Someone wants to kill them, and the specific reason has nothing to do with whether or not they plan to leave the city......"

"This should be inseparable from the presidents of the other two guilds. Huofeng sat back, "After I was killed, they benefited the most......!"

Why is this still so unenlightened......

"Add, the other two guild leaders are also in the castle right now, and they have asked for a simple meeting here to discuss the future...... Whether to investigate the civil strife first, or to investigate the outside of the city. Huofeng's speed of speech was a little faster than before, "I'm ...... now Some panic;

It's better not to be flustered, Eddie thought;

"Should I tear my face with them now?" Fire Phoenix seemed to ask, as if to say to herself, "If that's the case, the Blazing Flame Guild will also face some problems in the future......"

"The crux of the matter is not them at all. Eddie interrupted, "Have you ever wondered who the real biggest beneficiary is after death? ”

Huo Feng's body trembled slightly, obviously, she could still figure things out, but ......

Reluctant to believe.

"If it's dead, the Blazing Flame Guild will inevitably have a new president to rule the overall situation. Eddie continued to guide - some things were more effective if she had to say them herself, "And who could this person be?"

Don't tell me that the Scorching Flame Guild needs to fight again if you change the new leader in an emergency like this. ”

"Yes...... It's going to be ......," Fire Phoenix gritted her teeth, "but that doesn't ...... reason for me to doubt the guild members!"

"I think I can hear the voices outside, right?" Eddie sighed, "Those men in black have members of their guilds...... Is it possible to say, 'Those people were arranged into the guild in advance?'"

Huo Feng himself felt that this reason was too outrageous.

She lowered her head, wondering if there were other possibilities;

Add felt that it would be good for her to think about it for a while, so she kept silent.

What else can explain the current situation other than what I have been denying?

...... Like, really no.

"Alas. Huo Feng sighed a little desperately, "If it's really him...... Why do you want to do that? Now is the time to go out into the city and investigate...... Wouldn't he think about it from everyone in Cangliu City?"

"Maybe what he thinks is the power is not necessary to solve the problem. Add shrugged, "The other two guilds can solve the problem just as well, and if he chooses this time to become the guild president...... Successfully solving such a big problem can brush up a lot of prestige. ”

"But ......"

"On the other hand, if you solve a problem, you are at greater risk of failure. Eddie continued to explain patiently, "Of course, the other two guild leaders can't be taken lightly;

While they're not the masterminds, I think they'd love to see that...... It is still quite possible to help as much as possible for the long slopes. ”

Huofeng was silent for a while before speaking in a somewhat helpless tone

"What the hell should I do?"

...... Eddie could more or less guess how she was feeling at this moment;

The idea that I had always believed in collapsed with an attack.

"The first thing to do is to keep yourself safe," said Add, "and don't go back to the guild during this time—then give him and his supporters a chance to break the net, and stay in the rooms of this Cangliu Castle." ”

"Hmm...... So, how do I get in touch?"

"That's where a little bit of help comes in. The corners of Eddie's mouth rose slightly, "Talk to Viscount Qingyang and arrange a guest room for the five of us, he should give this face." ”

Phew, now you can save the cost of staying in a hotel, Eddie thought......

I guess the rooms in the castle are more comfortable than the rooms in the hotel, right?
