Chapter Twenty-Four: A Bad State of Affairs
After Aetis gave the Uncrowned the task of finding Gianna, he returned to the Glory Grocery Store next door, which was his home, and there were two reasons why he came here.
First, this place is relatively close to the Uncrowned Ones' base, and he can get the news as soon as possible, and secondly, he also needs to prepare the 'goods', after all, he promised the Uncrowned ones to provide the news of the 'Dreadblade'.
As soon as he said that, Etis took out a map of the Eastern Kingdoms from the cabinet and placed it on the table, looking for his target, while muttering to himself: "I remember that the Dreadblade was specially put on Azeroth by the demons of the Burning Legion, just to corrupt mortals who are not strong-willed....... But he failed...... Last Location...... Booty Bay ...... up It's in this area!" Etis drew a circle with his pen to a spot on the map.
Looking at the location marked on the map, Etis was not very satisfied, although he found the approximate location from memory, but the ocean was so vast that he could not find it accurately.
Etis looked down and thought for a while, picked up the invisible magic ink that Antonidas had quietly brought to him when he was teaching him, and then wrote a paragraph in the blank space on the map: "Dear Jack, it is not easy to find that artifact in the vast sea, and I am sure you will not be happy to be taken by your peers within the Uncrowned One...... But this time I'll give you another piece of news for free, about the weapon was buried in an isolated island by the admiral of Kul Tiras, there were quite a few of them at the time, maybe you can go to Kul Tiras to find the eyewitness, good luck!"
"Hmm...... That's it, it should be fine, all that's left is to wait for Gianna's news. When he was ready to deliver, Etis leaned back in his chair and waited quietly, squinting his eyes.
......
After a few hours, Etis felt something unseen creeping into his room, and he said with a little displeasure, "Jack, I said you can't knock on the door and come in?"
"Hmph, have you ever seen a thief knock on the door?, there's already news from my side" A voice suddenly appeared in the quiet air.
"Gianna has any news?" Etis didn't answer, and went straight to the point.
Jack Fender's voice came again from the empty room, but this time it seemed to have a strange emotion: "I say...... Elf, aren't you playing tricks on us?"
Etis frowned: "I don't understand what you are talking about, I don't need to trick you with the exact news of an artifact, I have prepared my goods, what about yours?"
The light in the room seemed to dim suddenly, and Jack Fender's figure slowly became clear from the empty corner, and Etis watched curiously, for the first time he had seen the thief withdraw from the stealth.
Glancing at Etis again, Jack Fender said slowly, "According to my inquiry, the last place where Miss Gianna appeared was your ......."
"What?"
"What are you talking about?
Etis's expression was incredulous! He didn't even know Gianna had been here.
Etis hurriedly asked, "What the hell is going on?"
Jack Fender didn't speak, just stared at him quietly, Etis looked at this for a moment, and then seemed to understand something and calmed down, and then threw the 'goods' that had been prepared on the table directly to him, and reminded him: "There is a magic potion written to you on it, wipe it off yourself after reading it, I hope my investment is worth it." β
Jack Fender picked up the map that Etis threw over, checked it, then put it back in the pocket on the inside of his coat and squinted at Etis, "What do you mean?"
"It's nothing, it's just an investment, and I hope to have the opportunity to work together again in the future, it's a win-win deal, isn't it? β
Jack Fender was silent for a moment, as if he didn't understand Etis's words, and said slowly: "I went to the sewers and asked about the 'rats', and your little Gianna came to your house on the day she disappeared, and no one has seen her go out since. Jack Fender gave Etis a disdainful look, and his body gradually became transparent and disappeared.
"Hey..... Don't go! What kind of eyes do you mean, say it clearly!" Etis chased after him, but Jack Fender's was gone.
"Bastard, does he think I'm the kind of pervert who likes little girls? And then the golden house hides Jiaojiao, and the thief shouts to catch the thief, right? What does he think of me? I think everyone is like them, and I am not using an artifact to seal your mouth! and...... I have the heart of a thief, and I don't have that thief...... Ahh......h
It's just that there really is a day...... I want her to grow up, and now she's only 15 years old...... Shaking his head and pulling himself out of his imagination, Etis sat on the chair and sulked: "What do you two of you have in my house......! Huh, cats?"
Etis chuckled in his heart, wouldn't he?
Don't.......
Thinking of this, Etis quickly opened the locker, the locker was a mess, there was nothing, but Etis was sure that he put a large plate of venison in it......
Seeing that the thing put in it was gone, and then there was a strand of white hair next to it, I was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that this season is not the time for cats to shed their hair if I remember correctly......
Ettis put his hand on his forehead and thought weakly, "That little girl can't have bumped into Mr. Bigworth's thief cat...... It can't be that he didn't see it clearly and hit it with magic, doesn't it know that the cat doesn't know how many kinds of protection there are on it?"
"Oh...... No...... If it's true, it's a big problem this time...... I hope it's not true...... but Etis knows that this is very likely, after all, the naughty little guy in the head of the gas is here to trouble him......
Etis was a little worried, although the little guy was usually a little naughty, but he was not bad to him, he wanted to save her, but his ability was limited, but he didn't go, but it was not suitable, and he couldn't be 100% sure that Gianna's disappearance was because of Kel'thugad, these were his speculations.
And the teacher doesn't know when he will be back......
Etis walked around the room, pacing back and forth, looking hesitant, and it didn't take long for him to sit directly on the ground as if he had accepted his fate: "Hey, forget it, let's work hard, recently the teacher has taught me a lot of arcane spell casting skills in order to lay a foundation for my future studies, and the power of time thanks to him has also recovered a little...... If it's really a chance, let's check the scene now......"
"Can Alpha help me make sure it's Bigworth's, and find out if Gianna has cast a spell here. β
