Chapter 352: Talking Down
A middle-aged man with a smile on his face, but his whole body exuded a fierce atmosphere, appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing the Linghu mercenary group that was waiting for him, the middle-aged man didn't seem to be a little surprised, but showed a hint of appreciation from his eyes.
"Yes, at least this alertness has passed."
He smiled slightly, like a general inspecting his subordinates.
"You're the Spirit Fox Mercenary Regiment, right?"
Although he didn't like the condescending posture of the visitor, Franco just frowned, and replied flatly: "That's right, what do you have to do?" ”
The middle-aged man's attitude was quite calm, and he said: "My master has something to invite, I wonder if you can appreciate your face and go with me?" ”
The meaning of his words was quite polite, but listening to that tone, there was no doubt, and it was impossible not to go.
York had already seen him unpleasant, and interjected: "Who is the master of your house, the shelf is big enough." Won't you come over by yourself if you have something, and you want us to come over to visit? ”
Everyone in the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group nodded secretly, even Franco, who had always been steady, did not say a word to reprimand.
The thief's words were unkind, but they were to the point. Everyone is very unhappy with the middle-aged man and the master behind him.
The middle-aged man frowned, and his face changed color slightly.
"Hmph, when you go south and north, you should always have eyesight. My master was genuinely invited, but he wanted to ask some things clearly. Don't waste the kindness of others and add unnecessary enemies to yourself. ”
With his words, a huge momentum suddenly rose from him.
The momentum was extremely strong, and Franco's perception was slightly contacted, and he immediately knew that the other party's strength was far above his own.
At the very least, it is a silver high level, and it may even be the silver great perfection.
With such a master, it's no wonder that he doesn't look at the Linghu mercenary group, which is no more than the highest silver mid-level. And how powerful should the master behind him be?
In this world, in the final analysis, strength is respected. The middle-aged man showed his strength, and even the thief York stopped talking, and everyone turned their eyes to the regiment commander Franco.
If the other party really has no malicious intent and rashly refuses, it will anger the other party and add a powerful enemy to himself; But if they deliberately deceive in order to trick the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group into stepping into a trap, then it will be very dangerous to go.
In the absence of information, it can be too nerve-wracking to make a decision.
Everyone looked at Franco, but Franco set his eyes on Long Aotian.
"Brother Long, what do you think?"
This new member of the group is unfathomable, knowledgeable, and has a unique vision, and Franco is also very impressed. Thinking back to the fact that before these people appeared, he said that this journey was by no means peaceful, as if hinting at something, as if he had foreseen the current situation in advance.
In this way, Franco, when he couldn't make up his mind, couldn't help but pray that he could have some good advice.
Long Aotian, who was pinned on his high hopes, waved his hand gently, without the slightest intention of shouldering a heavy burden: "I don't have an idea, you have decided, head of the regiment." ”
Franco was stunned, and the middle-aged man opposite couldn't help but glance at him more, surprised in his heart.
The other five members of the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group either had solemn expressions or were angry and indignant, but this young man had a hint of a smile on his mouth from beginning to end, and he didn't seem to care about what was happening in front of him.
It's not that I'm not afraid, but I don't care at all.
Franco pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision.
"Okay, Your Excellency, please lead the way."
"Those who know the times are Junjie, Captain Franco, you have made a right choice."
The middle-aged man seemed to have anticipated his decision, and reached out to make a gesture of please, leading the way in front of him.
Franco and the others were on guard, followed him, and walked back along the official road.
After walking a short distance, the middle-aged man turned into a small fork in the road, with dense woods on both sides.
After walking a little further, it suddenly became clear in front of me, but I came to a flat lawn.
The first person to attract the attention of everyone in the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group was a man with a majestic and resolute face, not angry and arrogant. He was of medium stature and ordinary appearance, standing in the middle of a crowd of samurai and masters, but he could be seen at first sight.
Looking at the uniforms of the guards on the left and right of the attendants, they were exactly the same as the two groups of knights who had rushed to front them just now, and they were all the same people. If there was no accident, the six knights should have rushed to the front to set up obstacles to prevent Franco and the others from riding their horses along the official road to escape.
It's a big battle!
If it comes, it will be safe. Seeing the other party's pomp, Franco's worried heart calmed down. It's a blessing or a curse, if the other party doesn't have malicious intent, then it's just that. If you really want to deal with the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group, there is only one way to fight to the death, what is the use of thinking about so many and some of them.
The middle-aged man who led the way walked up to the majestic man and said in a low voice, "Second Master, the people from the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group have brought it." ”
"Okay."
The second master waved his hand slightly, and the middle-aged man bowed back and stood behind him.
Only then did the second master raise his head, and his eagle-like sharp gaze swept to the bodies of everyone in the Spirit Fox Mercenary Group, without wasting the slightest time and getting straight to the point.
"Sorry to bother you. I take the liberty to invite you to come, mainly to ask, have you received a mission from the Best family? ”
"The Best Family?" Franco was stunned by the question, thinking to himself, isn't this one of the top families in the Desert Kingdom, how can it be related to us?
"No, Your Excellency is mistaken."
"Are you sure?" The second master's eyes were like electricity, staring at Franco tightly, not letting go of any slight change in expression on his face, as if to distinguish the truth from the falsehood of his words.
Franco was calm: "Sure." ”
The second master took a long breath and suddenly smiled.
"Captain Franco, don't say it so surely. The Best family is so powerful and has a lot of people, I don't dare to say that I know all of them, let alone you. ”
Franco was silent, because it was true, and he was powerless to refute it.
The second master didn't care, and continued to ask: "It doesn't matter if you don't know each other, my people do." Just tell me, the person who secretly entrusted you with the task at that time was an old man with gray hair but a ruddy face? The item he entrusted you with was a delicate pill? ”
Franco chuckled in his heart, finally understanding the other party's purpose.
They are goods that they want to consign.
"I'm sorry, but I can't give out the client's information. As for the consignment, I haven't opened it and looked at it, and I don't know if it's the same as your Excellency said. ”
"Oh?" The second master looked at him and sighed meaningfully.
"Listen to what you mean, if I wanted to inspect your goods myself, I guess you wouldn't agree?"
The second master squinted his eyes, and his eyes flashed with a dangerous light.
Franco was not afraid, he had his own principles, and he also had his own professional ethics. Even if he knew that this opponent was not trivial, he was not willing to give up his persistence easily.
"Forgive me!"
Franco's words were categorical, leaving no room for manoeuvre, and everyone present could hear the determination in his words.
The second master slowly straightened his waist, and a ruthless look gradually appeared on his face.
"Since you're not interested, don't blame me for being rude. If you don't give it, I'll take it myself! ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and made a gesture, and immediately a guard warrior pressed forward.
