The last rays of light from the slanting sun on the horizon stained the endless sky red, slowly setting down the continuous mountains. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

At the foot of the hill sits a small town, and in the coming night, the smoke curls and is peaceful.

"Another beer!"

"Okay! Wait! ”

In a tavern in town, the inhabitants of a tired day drank and chatted with each other about what they had seen and heard, and the tavern was bustling with low jazz music coming from the dilapidated radio.

"You know, I heard that something big seems to be going on in that country next door."

"Do you mean the plague on the borders of the Norvi Kingdom? Fool, how long ago did it take it out. ”

"But I heard that the plague has not gone away until now, and there are bloody corpses! Do you know about bloody corpses? The kind where the body is rotten, tsk, I feel goosebumps all over my body when I think about it. ”

"But it's good that we're separated from them by a big mountain, otherwise we might have passed it sometimes."

"Yes."

While the people in the tavern were chatting with great interest, from outside the tavern door, a slightly thin man slowly walked into the tavern, wearing a black cloak with an elongated hood covering his cheeks, and on his left arm, a white kitten lay on it, wagging its tail lazily.

Looking at the stranger who had lowered his head and slowly walked in, the inhabitants of the tavern only stared for a moment before turning their eyes away.

In their small town, there are often some strangers who appear, all of them are some merchants who deliver goods to the Norway Kingdom, although the Orlan Empire has issued a ban on trade to the Norvi Kingdom, but there are still some smugglers who take risks, after all, this is an opportunity to make money, no one wants to let go, and this town is also a gathering place for those smugglers.

The black cloak slowly walked to the counter of the tavern, sat down at the counter, bowed his head and said, "A beer." ”

As you can tell from the voice, it is a very young person.

"Your beer." Soon, a large glass of bubbling beer was brought out and placed in front of him.

The white kitten let out a pleasant cry, the black cloak hesitated slightly, stretched out his hand, grabbed the slightly cold wine glass, raised his head, and a young and even slightly green face was revealed, and the black pupils looked at the bored clerk at the counter with a little thought.

"Hello, I have some questions, could you please answer them for me?" The cloak was pulled down, and his face was completely revealed, and it was Luo Qi who left the Norway Kingdom some time ago and entered the Orlan Empire on a mission.

"Well, of course." The clerk hurriedly walked over and said with a smile.

"Well, your town is under the jurisdiction of Werner City, isn't it?" Luo Qi picked up his glass and took a sip.

"Yes, our town is a town on the edge of Werner's mouth, well, the border of the Empire." The clerk said indifferently.

"Hmm." Luo Qi nodded, paused, and then asked, "Werner City, City Lord's Mansion, what is their reaction now?" ”

The clerk was stunned and looked at Luo Qi blankly, not understanding what he meant.

"It's just what happened during this period of time." Luo Qi said, took out a gold coin from his pocket, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of the clerk.

"Oops, I see." The clerk hurriedly put away the gold coin, approached Luo Qi, and whispered, "Isn't that what you said about the hidden killer?" ”

Luo Qi didn't say a word, and looked at the clerk quietly.

The clerk rolled his eyes, and then said in a low voice: "Hey, this is needless to say, that hidden killer killed the two personal guards of the city lord, and the city lord was furious before, saying that he must break the hidden killer's body into ten thousand pieces or something, but ......"

After a moment's hesitation, the clerk continued: "But I heard that the hidden killer seems to have targeted the city lord this time, and sent a threatening letter or something, and now the city lord doesn't even dare to come out of the city lord's mansion." ”

"Sounds excessive, why did this hidden killer assassinate the city lord?" Luo Qi smiled faintly without missing a trace, and then said with a straight face.

"It's excessive, it's not bad." The clerk seemed to be a little helpless, "What's the use of the City Lord's Mansion?" It's not that you can't manage anything? It's all under the control of that warrior guild, except for the warriors, they don't care about us civilians at all, there's no way, to be honest, if our royal family has the backbone of the royal family of the Norvi Kingdom, it won't ......"

Speaking of this, the clerk looked at Luo Qi's index finger on his lips and couldn't help but hurriedly cover his mouth.

"When you speak, you must also pay attention to your own personal safety." Luo Qi smiled slightly, then picked up his glass and drank the rest of the beer.

"Thank you, your answer was very helpful to me." With that, Luo Qi stood up, threw down a gold coin again, then put the hood back on his head, covered his face again, turned around, and slowly walked out of the tavern.

The clerk looked at Luo Qi a little stunned, glanced at the gold coins on the table, and hurriedly put them away.

"Hey! One more drink! ”

"Hey, good!"

……

Walking on the main road in the town, Luo Qi kept his head down and walked slowly, and the people around him did not pay too much attention to him, and the evening breeze slowly blew from his front, slightly lifting the cloak he wore on his body.

It has been a month since he came to the Orlan Empire, and during this time, Luo Qi has been wandering around Werner City, and he has a general understanding of the Orlan Empire after obtaining the information about the Orlan Empire from the intelligence department of the Norvi Kingdom, as well as Luo Qi's observations during this period of time.

Although the Orlan Empire has the name of an empire, it has no empire, the only reason is that because of this country, the king has almost no rights, and almost all the power is in the hands of the Imperial Warrior Guild.

And I heard that this time, the 'ruler' of the Oran Empire is a queen, so there is no deterrent, because in the history of the Oran Empire, there is no precedent for a woman to be in power, so it is difficult for the people to accept such a thing as a weak woman controlling the fate of the entire country for a while.

"Queen, Warrior Guild, what an interesting match." Luo Qi couldn't help but let out a low chuckle, looked up, and found that he had walked out of the town.

Now, it's time to get some more information from the city lords of these surrounding cities and see if you can have something valuable.

And Luo Qi has now made a bold plan.

Slightly silent, Luo Qi kicked lightly, and his figure instantly rose into the sky, the black cloak hunted in the wind, and the magic power on Luo Qi's body surged, and his figure suddenly flew forward, and in the distance, there was a brightly lit city.

In Werner City, the city lord's mansion is heavily guarded at this moment, and many guards are constantly patrolling outside, as if they are guarding against something important that is coming.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Dillan, the City Lord of Werner City, was sitting in his room with a sad face at the moment, looking at a piece of letter paper on the table, his body trembling constantly.

"Soon, I will take your head - the hidden killer."

"This ...... Why is this guy coming to me for trouble! Dillan's face was full of fat and shaking, and his thick fingers pointed to the letter, and he said with a sad face.

"Don't panic! Father, I've already told Caston that if the assassin comes, we'll take him down, and we won't hurt you!" Beside Dillan, a dark-haired man in a crewneck guard suit said loudly.

"You, even if you call all the top ten on the guild's list, whether you can stop that guy or not is two words!" Dillan held his head, "Oh my God, why, it's the Warrior Guild that holds the power now, what does it have to do with me!" ”

As he spoke, Dillan suddenly grabbed the arm of the man beside him, and said tremblingly: "Venat, listen to me, if I don't hide, then you don't have to stay in the City Lord's Mansion anymore, there is no way out here......"

"Father, don't think about it! It's going to be fine! Weinert shook off Dillan's fat hand and yelled.

"I'm not just greedy for a little money, a little bit, why do you ...... me like this," Dillan lowered his head and said slowly.

Until now, he could remember the tragic situation of his two personal guards at that time, almost in an instant, just a flash of blue light, the two guards with the strength of an eighth-level warrior had already separated their heads and fell to the ground and died.

What is the origin of this hidden killer who appeared in the sky? And what does he want to do?

At that moment, there was a knock on the door of the room, which was particularly piercing in the silence of the house.

"Who?" Weinat frowned, and a golden weapon card was clenched in his hand.

When a normal guard arrives, they will never knock on the door, and they should report the matter directly outside the house.

"What...... Person? Dillan leaned back, and his voice changed.

I saw that the card in Weinert's hand had turned into a short sword, held it in his hand, walked to the door, grasped the doorknob, and gently pulled the door open.

As soon as the door opened, Weinat looked at the people outside the house, his face changed, and the short sword in his hand rose with blue magical power, and stabbed at the other party fiercely!

"Boom!"

"Hiss......"

At this moment, Weinat's pupils contracted slightly, and he looked incredulously at the man in the black cloak standing in front of him, and his own short sword between his fingers.

"You...... Who? Weinatt asked through gritted teeth.

"Are you here to take my life too!" Dillren shouted. "Why! Why do you want to kill me! ”

"You're mistaken." A faint laugh came from under the cloak, and the young voice floated out leisurely with a characteristic magnetism.

"I'm here to help you."
