Chapter 323: Interrogation! Collect Confessions!
Southern Empire, Saarbin Province, Kenid City.
"Boss, are we really going to continue to smash the Imperial Newspaper today? I always have a bad premonition. β
In a gloomy alley, a thin middle-aged man with a thief's eyebrow said worriedly, and across from him, stood a middle-aged strong man with a height of two meters.
It is not far from the Imperial Newspaper Office, and even from the alley, you can clearly see the gate of the Imperial Newspaper.
There were two newsboys with cloth bags slung around their waists, selling newspapers to passers-by, both of whom were Kenid City natives employed by the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce.
"This matter was explained by the Saldero family, so we can't help it!"
When he said this, the middle-aged strong man's face was also a little cloudy.
They were just a small group of gangsters in Kenid, and there was no comparison with a big family like the Saldros.
If they dare not obey the orders of the Saldero family, they will be left with nothing but death.
"Besides, it's not the first time we've done this, if there is really someone behind the Imperial Newspaper, after so many days, it should have been done a long time ago!"
That being said, the thin man still clearly felt the uneasiness in the middle-aged strong man's tone.
Although they don't know the origin of the Imperial Newspaper, the existence that can make the Saldero family so jealous and dare not directly attack them is definitely not something that a small gangster group like them can provoke.
And he knew very well that the reason why the Saldero family did not directly deal with the Imperial Newspaper, but chose to hire them to smash the Imperial Newspaper, was nothing more than to dissociate this matter from the Saldero family and let them be the substitutes.
But even if he knew about the Saldero family's plan, he didn't have enough strength to stand up against the Saldro family.
This couldn't help but make him feel a wave of frustration!
So when he was asked to smash the Imperial Newspaper, the middle-aged strong man specially explained to his subordinates that he must not hurt the people of the Imperial Newspaper, which can be regarded as leaving a way out for himself!
He decided that after completing this order and getting the bounty, he would leave Kenid City and start his life again incognito in a place where the Sardero family's forces could not interfere.
I believe that with the gold coins accumulated over the years, his future life will not be too bad.
As for the grievances between the Saldero family and the Imperial newspaper, who wins and who loses in the end, he doesn't bother to care so much!
"That's right, boss, I'm going to inform Ange of them!"
The thin man lowered his head and said, so that the middle-aged strong man did not notice the slightly strange look on his face.
It was a look of disappointment!
"Well, get Ange and them all as soon as possible, we can go back early when we finish things early, and go to the BarΓ§a bar in the evening, I invite you to drink!"
The middle-aged Zhuang said with certainty that the Ange in his mouth was second only to his subordinates in strength, and he already had the strength of a third-level warrior.
For a small gangster group like them, it is already very good to be able to have two third-level fighters.
The Saldero family approached them to do this, and that's why!
Of course, the Saldero family is not the only one looking for forces, and the four Imperial newspapers in Kenid City have all been arranged with a small gangster group to be responsible for sabotaging the operation of the Imperial newspapers.
"Well, I got the boss!"
The thin man nodded, and then his figure flashed and rushed into the depths of the alley, disappearing into the depths of the alley in a short time.
Only the middle-aged strong man was left alone to continue to squat at the mouth of the alley, looking at the Imperial newspaper in the distance and not knowing what he was thinking.
What neither of them noticed was that after the thin man left the alley, a pair of eyes hidden in the dark also disappeared!
After a long time, he sighed faintly and took out his weapon from the spatial ring and carried it behind his back.
Unlike the other warriors, his weapon was not a traditional broad-bladed sword, but a two-meter-long decapitating broadsword inlaid with nine huge iron rings, which he had stolen from a small caravan five years earlier......
On the other side, after the thin man left the alley, he did not follow the orders of the middle-aged strong man to inform Ange.
Instead, he pretended to be a nobody, shuttled through the alleys of Kenid City, and soon came to the portal located at the south gate of Kenid City.
Many people have gathered here, and they have been divided into dozens of groups, each with no more than fifty people, depending on where they are going.
This is the rule of the teleportation array, and every time the teleportation array is used, it requires a mana consumption fee of 5,000 gold coins, and this fee is shared equally by the person using the teleportation array.
The more people who use the teleportation array at one time, the less gold coins will be evenly divided, and a maximum of 50 people are allowed to use the teleportation array at a time, and the minimum cost is 100 gold coins per person.
Therefore, in order to save gold coins, they usually wait for fifty people to gather together before they open the teleportation array and leave.
Of course, if you are in a hurry and have the money, you can directly spend 5,000 gold coins to wrap up the entire teleportation array.
found the group with the largest number of individuals, and the thin man ran straight in.
This is the team heading to Mani City, separated from Kenide City by two full provinces, as long as he hides there incognito, then no matter how strong the Imperial Newspaper is, it is impossible to find him across the two provinces.
With his savings over the years, it is no problem to do some small business in Mani City, and live the rest of his life well.
"Lao Tzu won't stay and die with you!"
The thin man said disdainfully in his heart.
As the person in charge of gathering intelligence in a small group, he knew far more than anyone else.
Through his observations in the past few days, he discovered a terrifying secret, that is, it did not cost anyone to use the teleportation array by the people of the Imperial Newspaper.
You must know that in the entire Violet Empire, only those who are powerful in the Sacred Domain or above can have the right to be exempt from the cost of the teleportation array.
In addition, even if the major nobles use the teleportation array, they still need to pay the teleportation array fee, without any exceptions.
But now this exception has emerged, and that is the Imperial newspaper.
With this discovery, he made up his mind not to participate in the grudge between the Saldero family and the Imperial newspaper, otherwise a small shrimp like him would probably be crushed in an instant, and there would be no scum left.
He didn't think that at that time, the Saldro family would still bless them with these little shrimps!
It's most practical to run!
However, no matter how beautiful the ideal is, how cruel the reality is.
The moment the thin man walked into the Mani City team, a figure descended from the sky and came to the teleportation array.
"What people!"
The guard in charge of protecting the teleportation array immediately drew his weapon and watched vigilantly at the figure falling from the sky.
However, when they saw the face of the person who came, those guards directly withdrew their weapons and looked at the figure with respectful and fearful eyes: "We have seen Lord Nick Sword Saint!"
"It's Nick Sword Master! Why is he here, didn't he say that he started his retreat three months ago?"
"Oh my God, it's actually Nick Sword Master!"
......
Not only did the guards recognize the identity of this figure, but many of those who were waiting for the teleportation array to open also recognized the identity of this figure.
As one of the two powerhouses of Kenid City, they have all heard of the great name of the Nick Sword Saint.
Moreover, as the dean of the Kenid City Demon Martial Academy, there were many people present who had been his students!
"Hmm!"
Glancing at the people around him, Nick Swordmaster nodded slightly, even in response to their greetings.
"Mr. Nick, are you going to use a teleportation array?"
The captain of the guard hurriedly came to Nick Swordmaster and said to Nick Swordmaster in an almost flattering tone.
He was a graduate of Kenid City's Martial Arts Academy, and had been taught by Nick Swordmaster in the past.
"No, I'm here to find someone this time!"
Without looking at the captain of the guard, Nick Swordmaster flashed in front of the team in Namani City, and his eyes fell on the thin man who had just walked into the team.
"Whew~"
Being looked at by the Nick Sword Master with such eyes, the thin man couldn't help but gasp, and his whole heart couldn't help but beat faster.
He had a hunch that this Nick Sword Saint who fell from the sky was here for him, and it was also for the fact that the Imperial Newspaper was smashed.
With Nick's Swordmaster's actions, everyone near the teleportation array turned their eyes to the thin man, wondering who he was, and he was able to let Nick Swordmaster come and find him in person.
"Come with me!"
After speaking, he didn't care about the thin man's opinion, he directly reached out and grabbed the thin man's shoulder, and flew away into the distance with him, leaving only a group of inexplicable onlookers.
"Listen, you should have seen nothing about this today, you know!"
After Nick Sword Master left, the captain of the guard reacted immediately and said loudly to the people near the teleportation array.
"Got it!"
The guards replied.
Onlookers nearby also said they knew what to do.
No matter what reason the Nick Sword Master wanted to take that skinny man away just now, he had already violated the laws of the Empire.
As the enforcers of the Empire, it is impossible for them to remain indifferent.
However, as one of the powerhouses of the two holy realms of Kenid City, and the dean of the Kenid City Demon Martial Academy, they had no way to take the Nick Sword Saint at all.
So the best solution is to act when nothing happens, so hello, hello, everyone!
It's just that no one noticed that there was a man in the crowd who was not too tall, and there was a flash of excitement in his eyes.
The engram in his hand happened to take a picture of everything that had just happened.
"If you sell this to the Imperial Press, you should be able to sell it for a good price!"
......
"ε²~"
The thin man was thrown to the ground by Nick's Sword Master, and the sharp pain came, making him gasp.
This is where the Nick Sword Master lives in the Kenid City Demon Martial Academy, and no one will come near here without his permission.
And the subordinates who were originally here were also transferred away by him for reasons.
"If you're dead, if you're not, stand up quickly!"
Looking at the thin man lying on the ground pretending to be dead, Nick Sword Master said with some impatience.
At the same time, beside Nick Sword Saint, several more figures appeared out of thin air, all looking at the thin man on the ground with a dead man's gaze.
This put a lot of pressure on his heart, and he immediately didn't dare to continue pretending to be dead, and got up on the ground to greet Nick Sword Saint and several figures around him: "Little Skak, I've seen all the adults!"
Although his strength is not strong, only two levels, as a person who specializes in gathering intelligence, he has a lot of knowledge.
With just one glance, he recognized the identities of the people standing beside the Nick Sword Saint, all of them were big names in the towns near Kenid City, and none of them had the strength to be under the Holy Domain.
He even saw a mage who resembled the legendary god Tokfa.
In an instant, cold sweat soaked his back.
While panicking in his heart, he couldn't help but wonder who had the ability to bring so many big people together.
"Next I ask, you answer, don't talk other nonsense, or die!"
When he said the word death, the thin man couldn't help but shudder, and fell to the ground.
"Huh!"
With a sneer, Nick Juggernaut took out an engram crystal and put it in his hand.
If it weren't for the fact that Calaf bastard wanted them to collect evidence of the Saldero family's dealings with the Imperial newspaper, he wouldn't have bothered to do this.
Rather than doing these things, he prefers to solve all problems directly by force.
Even if it were Calaf holding Speydo's black fog list, their ghost clan wouldn't give Calaf a second look.
It's just a human being, how can it be compared to their noble ghost race.
"Why are you smashing the Imperial Newspaper!"
Nick's cold words sent chills down the thin man's heart.
Sure enough, I came here for the Imperial Newspaper!
"Someone else hired us to do this, and for every time we smashed the Imperial Newspaper, we were paid 10,000 gold coins. β
Not daring to hesitate, the thin man was afraid that if he answered slowly, he would be broken by the Nick Sword Master.
Legend has it that one of Nick's favorite things to do is to twist the enemy's head, and he doesn't want to use his own head to verify whether this legend is true.
"Who hired you, and why did he hire you!"
Nick Juggernaut continued to ask.
These questions were given to them by Calaf, and not only them, but everyone else was told the same thing by Calaf before leaving.
Before completing the Black Mist List mission, be sure to gather enough evidence.
As for why they did it, Calaf didn't tell them.
"It was the Saldro family who hired us, because we have two third-level warriors, not only me, but the Saldro family also hired three other groups to smash the Imperial newspaper office of the other family. β
The thin man directly confessed to the Saldero family.
Now he has probably guessed why Nick Swordmaster arrested him and asked this, this is to find a reason to attack the Saldero family!
