Chapter 105: Goal, Go!
As the sun sets, the last rays of light dissipate from the sea level.
Once again, the world is shrouded in darkness.
Lisanna, who found the "key" in the post station, walked out without squinting, came to the door, and turned around to explain to the steward of the chamber of commerce that she and the president would come back later tonight.
His gaze drifted upward, looking at the figure standing on the balcony on the second floor of the hotel on the left.
There were no lights in the house, but they could barely be distinguished by the light from the warehouse in the inn, so the two guards behind them just glanced at it, thinking that it was a resident, and they didn't pay much attention to it.
Herod~
At the neighing of the horses, the wheels began to roll, and the carriage was carried away, leaving only a little smoke and dust to drift.
On the edge of the balcony, Lobelin clutched the note in his hand, and there was not much on it, just a short sentence: Someone has snatched the scorching box, and the president needs help.
This is the note that Lisanna used the key as an excuse to delay time when she came back just now, using the sand parasite to quietly leave in the room, and reminded Lobelin when she passed by the hotel, and he only got it after Lisanna left.
"An enemy that even you need help...... It seems that there are quite a few contenders this time. ”
Grabbing the note in his hand, Lobelin jumped off the balcony, the scorching box was something he had to get his hands on, and now that he finally saw hope, he naturally wouldn't allow someone to break it at this critical moment.
It was only when he reached the door that a noise from outside made him stop, and he retreated behind the door to observe the situation outside.
A few black-robed people stopped the steward of the Shuojin Chamber of Commerce outside the post station, and when they heard the voices coming over, they seemed to be asking about the whereabouts of Zhu Jue and Lisanna.
"Dream Eater?"
The other party's outfit made Lobelin immediately think of the people he had killed at the Popeye Tavern today, and through mental induction, he quickly determined this.
How can there be two groups of people?
After asking about the Scorching Box, Lobelin set out to clean up the cultists and competitors, thinking that they would be less troublesome, but now there is another team of Dream Eaters.
In normal times, Lobelin might choose to strike again, but now is obviously not a good time to make a move, not to mention that the opponent's strength is unknown, in case of an evenly matched, the Scorching Box side is prone to problems.
But it doesn't seem appropriate to just leave.
After lingering behind the door for a while, eavesdropping on voices outside, Lobelin was surprised to find that the Dream Eaters were behaving as if they didn't even know what was going on today.
He didn't ask the Dream Eaters who had come to the Shimmering Gold Chamber of Commerce before them, and he didn't show obvious hostility, and even put himself in the position of an ordinary merchant in his conversation.
That's a little weird.
You must know that when Zhu Jue chatted with Luo Bailin before, he also mentioned that a dream eater came to the door this morning to snatch the scorching box and was killed by them, in this matter, Luo Bailin did not think that Zhu Jue would deceive himself, because it was meaningless.
Then there is only one possibility left, these dream eaters are not the same group as the ones they killed, they may already know that the dream eaters on this side of the port of Dillas are dead, but they don't know who did it, and there is no way to find out in a short time, and there is also a possibility that these people did not join the original group of people at all, and they did it themselves, but these two routes will eventually be intertwined in one point, that is, they can only focus on the most critical scorching box first.
In that case, there may be an opportunity to take advantage of this!
No longer in a hurry to go to the Earl's villa in Otland, Belolinge straightened her clothes and walked out of the door.
The people outside the door naturally noticed Beloline's existence for the first time, but just as the latter thought, this group of dream eaters didn't know who he was at all, and just looked at the wooden mask on his face in some surprise, which made Belolin, who was still secretly on guard, completely relieved.
"Hey, your vice-president said he was going to give something to the Earl of Otland, and he said he wanted me to go and see it too, but where are the people now?"
Beloline didn't look at the group of dream eaters, and asked the steward of the Shimmering Gold Chamber of Commerce on her own.
Lishana and Zhu Jue were just two people when they left, and when they came back, Zhu Jue was not there, but there were two more armed guards, plus the note just now,
Unsurprisingly, before the steward could answer anything, the Dream Eater noticed his question first.
"You just said that the vice president of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce wants to send something to Earl Otland?"
The man in black turned his gaze to Beloline, he hadn't been to the port of Dilas, and he naturally wouldn't be unaware of a character like Count Otlan.
The vice president of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce sent something to the Earl of Otland?
In his opinion, this kind of flattering behavior would not have been possible without the instructions of the head of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce, in other words, it was now the head of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce who was currying favor with the Earl of Otland, and this undoubtedly aroused his alarm, and he quickly thought of the deterioration of the relationship between their Dream Eater and the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce during this time.
Turning to the local forces of the Dream Realm can not only protect the interests of the Shimmering Gold Chamber of Commerce in the Dream Realm, but also will not violate the alliance with the Dream Eaters, at least in the matter of not completely falling to the Dream Realm Brigade, the Dream Eaters' side will not completely tear their faces with it.
Therefore, in a sense, this behavior of the Shining Gold Chamber of Commerce can even be said to have found a new way in the alliance between the two sides, which is now in danger.
"Hmph...... What a calculation!"
Thinking about the hidden meaning behind the hand of the Glittering Gold Chamber of Commerce, Rao is the leader of the Dream Eater's side, and he can't help but secretly appreciate the decisiveness and accuracy of the new president's decision.
Tut~
This brain supplement ability is really not ordinarily strong, anyway, when Lobelin heard this, he thought that his plan was exposed, and he almost did it directly, but after the person in front of him finished speaking, he turned around and left with the team, probably going straight to the Duke of Otlan's manor, ready to have a yellow finch behind.
Lobelin was naturally happy with the result, and even the quicksand face under the mask churned a little, and he followed these people from afar, and these dream eaters would help him find his goal.
On the other side, Otlan Manor.
The content of the drinking party in the fantasy dream is no different from what Zhu Jue imagined, it is still the same old-fashioned staggering, and people in bright clothes shuttle between the banquets, putting on a hypocritical face that seems to be smiling but not smiling, and there are many bright and dark interactions.
As for Zhu Jue, an out-of-place guy, for a full three hours, he just wandered around the periphery of the drinking party, either leaning against the fountain, or half-lying in the peripheral corridors, alternating wine bottles in his hands, and almost drank unconscious.
However, Zhu Jue's current physique really didn't allow him to faint, and those drinks entered his stomach, and it didn't take long for them to be absorbed.
So Zhu Jue became a frequent visitor to the toilet......
When he came out of the toilet for the fifth time, Zhu Jue finally saw the manor housekeeper he had been waiting for at the table at the end of the reception.
"Mr. President, the reception is over, and Lord Earl is waiting for you at the door, as is Miss Lisanna. ”
Originally, Lishana was not allowed to follow, but she took the initiative to tell the Earl of Otlan that there was a special pattern in the placement of the Scorching Box, and Zhu Jue, as the new president, had not yet fully mastered it, and it was likely to trigger the built-in mechanism of the collection, so it was best to let her accompany her.
Otlan didn't turn down Lishana's offer, he didn't think the woman could play any tricks under his nose, and his eagerness to look forward to the scorching box made him subconsciously start to ignore some less important details.
"Got it...... It was a treasure left to me by my ancestors, and now it is going to be given to someone else, which is really ...... Hiccup~"
Zhu Jue rubbed his stomach and burped, he was not drunk, but his footsteps were still swaying, and finally he even had to lean on the butler's side to move forward, muttering and complaining all the time, and he didn't stop until the door.
Not only did the butler not stop this, but a smile appeared on his face, and the same expression appeared on the face of the Earl of Otland, but the latter was more sarcastic.
"Mr. President had been drinking all afternoon, and on the way there he was complaining that you had robbed him of his treasures. ”
The butler stood by the carriage and reported what he had seen in the afternoon, in fact, he had been paying attention to Zhu Jue's every move since the deal was concluded, and whether the deal that the latter agreed to under his own pressure was really soft or prepared for it may be seen from his behavior at the reception.
The things that the master didn't have time to do, naturally he had to be the housekeeper to do it for him, and Zhu Jue's behavior in the end undoubtedly dispelled their last suspicions.
"Young people are young people after all, and they can't hide anything in their hearts...... Oh, it's a good thing, don't worry about him. ”
Otlan waved his hand casually, glanced at the young man on the other side who was retching on Lisanna's shoulders on the side of the road, and said in a deep voice.
Let's go!
Target Scorching Box!
