Chapter 19: The Slave Market
Underground, inside the Thieves' Guild. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Mersef and Artiman looked at Agil with incredulous expressions on their faces, and he pulled out the title deed he had stolen from the Glensh Manor and handed it to Arteman
"Agil, how did you do that?" Artiman took the title deed and said in surprise. He never expected that a little boy who was only sixteen years old would go deep into the Jinguang Manor, steal the title deed, and retreat, looking at the entire thieves' guild, there are only a handful of people who can do it.
"Agil, I'm underestimating you." Mersef gave Agil a thumbs up and said with a slight smile. After all, Aigil was brought in by him, and Aigil completed the task perfectly, and he was naturally very happy.
"It was a thrilling process, and I almost got caught a few times, but luckily, I was lucky." Agil said lightly.
"Good!" Artiman gave him an unhesitant look of appreciation, then took out a large bag of gold coins from the cabinet and said with a smile: "Agil, this is the employer's commission money, a total of 1,000 gold coins!" ”
Aegil didn't shirk and took the coin. He didn't expect that he would become a rich man in just a few months after coming to Karnos. There are more than 1,000 gold coins on his body, you know, ordinary people can't use so much money in a year.
"Agil, I'm now officially extending an invitation to you, hoping you can be one of us!" Artiman walked up to Agil, held out a hand, and said sincerely.
Aegil hesitated.
"Agil, what do you want, say yes!" Mersef said anxiously.
I don't have a place to go now, even if I want to leave Karnos, I have to wait for Miraya to come back and then say goodbye to her, and now, staying in the Thieves' Guild seems to be a good choice.
Agil shook hands with Arteman, then said.
"I'm willing to join the Thieves' Guild!"
……
Carnos City, a bustling street, inside the Black Thorn Tavern, Mercerf and Aegil sit at a table. Since Agil joined the Thieves Guild, it has been half a month, and he has also taken over several small tasks, and Agil has completed them perfectly, and the president of the Thieves Guild has become more and more appreciative of Agil, as if he had picked up a treasure.
"Agil, you tell you honestly, who did you learn the lockpicking technique from?" After half a month, Mersef and Agil have become more and more acquainted, and he didn't believe that Aegill's superb lock-picking skills were actually taught by an old beggar.
"Mersef, didn't I tell you, old Nick taught me." Agil shook his head and said.
"Don't fool me, then you say, where is that old Nick now?"
"Dead." When he was ten years old, Old Nick left suddenly, no one knew where he had gone, everyone said he was dead, and Agil acquiesced.
"It's a pity." Mersef raised his glass and said, "I'm here to see this great man." ”
This is the Black Thorn Tavern, the largest tavern in Carnos City, with three floors. Upstairs is a private room, which ordinary people can't enter. The bottom floor of the tavern was very noisy, and many shirtless adventurers were chatting, who killed a dragon python a few days ago, and all kinds of cowhide were blowing all over the sky.
"These individuals, the kung fu of bragging is not small, and the strength of the dragon pattern python is at least equivalent to about the first-order warrior of the human race, how can they kill it." Mersef shook his head disdainfully.
At this moment, several middle-aged people dressed very richly came down from the box upstairs, and their conversation was naturally overheard because of the proximity of Agiel's table.
"How many new colors have come recently, go check them out?"
"Hey, dude Bag, I've got you in for a treat this time."
"It's not a thing, I heard that it's still a chick, and I played with it tonight."
……
When a few people walked out of the tavern, Mercerse suddenly looked disgusted.
"The people in the slave market are really not good things."
"Slave market?" Agil was a little puzzled, he had never heard of such an organization in Karnos.
"You've just been in Karnos for a short time, so naturally you haven't heard of it."
The slave market, the darkest trading place in Karnos, where people are sold as goods, where humanity is worthless. Most of the people who were caught were scavengers, most of whom were women, and those who were a little bit beautiful would be bought back by those rich armor and nobles. The end is naturally ineffable.
Agil was shocked when he listened to it, this slave market is too dark, it actually sells people as goods, such a humane organization, it has existed in Karnos for decades, I don't know how many children have been hacked, and those who are sold out of the slave market basically have no good end.
"Aren't the guards here all about business?" Agil said angrily. But anyone with a little conscience will scoff at the slave market.
"Guards? Hehe. Mersef took a sip of wine and said, "That group of people are all dry food, and the forces behind the slave market are not simple, even if they are the lords of Karnos City, they have to weigh before they start. ”
"Listening to the conversation of those people just now, it seems that today, another group of children will be murdered." Agil gritted his teeth and said.
"Hey, don't think about it so much, here, it's good to be able to save your life." Mersef said with a sigh.
"I don't think so......" Aegil took a sip of the wine in his glass and said, "Merseph, you go back to the guild first, I still have some business to attend to." ”
"Agil, you don't want to ......" Merseph looked at Aegill's posture and immediately thought of the slave market.
"I've got my own measure." Agil said lightly.
"Don't mess around, if anything happens to you, Artiman will have to cut me down." Mersef wanted to stop Agil, but after half a month of understanding, he knew that Agil's temper was very stubborn, and he only hoped that he wouldn't cause anything.
"Don't worry."
Agil didn't have a good impression of the slave market, he had the same experience as the children there, he was abandoned by his parents and lived on the streets, even so, the group of animals in the slave market even talked about them being captured and sold, and he wanted to go there to investigate.
With that, Agil paced out of the Black Thorn Tavern, the previous people did not go far, and Aegil could vaguely see their backs. He didn't think much of it and just followed.
The location of the slave market was also very hidden, and Agil followed the men, zigzags through a few dark and damp alleys, and finally the men stopped.
Agil hid behind the wall, watching them closely.
