Chapter 17: The Frost Sword Queen

The group of thieves who came early in the morning had already set up stalls for several kilometers in the makeshift market.

An armory shop with a dazzling array of muskets, a blacksmith shop with billowing black smoke from a boiler, a potions shop with a strong smell of medicine, a steam equipment shop...

It's more of a stall paved with rags.

The streets are bustling with people, mostly adventurers with muskets and sharp blades.

These are all members of the major monster bandits, and you can feel the ferocity of the outlaws overflowing from them from afar.

The weather was nice today, the poisonous fog was not so thick, and there were some guys who didn't wear gas masks, showing the horrible tattoos and fierce eyes on their skin. Worn leather pants, sweaty linen shirts, smoky makeup, nose rings, small dreadlocks, colorful cockscombs, mechanical arms with exposed clockwork gears...

The heavy metal dark punk style that slowly thickens into the eyes.

......

"Come and see... Excellent musket, 300-meter ultra-long range, high-precision scope, smokeless gunpowder... The wholesale price is 13,000 miles, and the minimum price is 100 pieces. ”

"Fire Elemental Enchanted Blade, Famous Weapon [Bagil's Red Serpent Scimitar], the heirloom of the Lafayette family... Just five million risos! ”

"Pack and sell a ton of potion materials, it's still hot when you just rob it, and the price is 30,000 gold crowns..."

"A war slave of the highest order, a rich merchant's lady, a lady's ladies, a knight of the Marquis's Palace... Let's take a look..."

"Empire-standard steam mechanical external skeleton, the current service of the Royal Praetorian Guard, a small amount of speed..."

β€œ...”

Along the way, the cries were endless.

A group of robbers who didn't look like serious businessmen were setting up stalls and selling them.

Those valuable goods are randomly placed on the floor, looking like a grocery store...

The numb female slave girl only had a strand of her body to cover the key parts, and she was chained like an animal and sold in a row on the booth. And in the audience, a group of obscene-looking buyers are pointing...

There were also sporadic gunshots, which were from the black market arms dealers selling their muskets and steam gear...

On the open-air gladiatorial platform, two shirtless sturdy men are fighting for their lives, and the gamblers in the audience are shouting excitedly...

Of course, the most lively thing is the Fengyue Tavern and gambling stalls with Feng** Lang soliciting customers at the door.

The speculative merchants who are secretly in collusion with the thieves will not pass up such a good opportunity, they have already prepared the wine and the girl, waiting to "loot" all the gold coins in the pockets of the thieves...

These knife-licking guys are the ones who are most willing to spend money and enjoy indulgence.

......

This is a chaotic, disorderly, bloody "black market fair"...

But Raymond saw it in his eyes, but a certain emotion in his heart became more and more unbearable.

Over the past year, he has been hovering on the edge of life and death every day, and this is the closest he feels to "freedom".

This "black market fair", the largest in the past decade, may have gathered more than 100,000 people!

This was the best chance to escape, and he had to take it.

Of course, some old guy thinks the same way.

"Let's go, there's nothing good on the street. This kind of exchange meeting, really good things are exchanged in a small circle in private..."

"Yes, Teacher."

β€œ...”

Pisis pretended to lead Wren around, and then walked more and more remotely, and came to a sake pub called "Hyacinth Tavern".

This kind of black market fair, taverns without call girls, rarely frequented by lecherous and alcoholic thieves, but it is the favorite place for the haughty potions masters to meet.

It's an upscale tavern in the middle of nowhere, perfect for something private.

For example, killing people and selling goods.

......

The butterfly spring door was pushed open from the outside to the inside, and the wind chimes hanging on the door rang crisply.

The look catches the eye of a western cowboy dΓ©cor, but the difference is that there are many more black pipes and valves for steam boilers.

I don't know if it's because it's still early, and when the two of them came in, there were no guests in the tavern. The bartender at the bar was boredomily wiping his goblet.

Pisis, a two-star potions master, seemed to be quite famous, and the bartender greeted him warmly when he saw him coming.

"Hey ~ Mr. Pissis, my old friend, meet again!"

"Hmm."

Pisis nodded coldly, and then asked, "Boss Tom, have they been here with Joseph of the 'Flower Snake Regiment'?" ”

The bartender shrugged and responded, "No, Mr. Picis." But the fair hasn't started yet, and I think Mr. Joseph is probably still on his way..."

"Oh..."

Pisis raised an eyebrow.

He didn't skimp at all, he popped out a gold kronor with his fingers, and landed steadily on the bar, "Old rule, prepare a big quiet room for us." ”

That's a full 10,000 miles.

The bartender took the gold coin and smiled: "Good Le... It was my pleasure for the noble Mr. Potions Master to patronize the despicable tavern. ”

Listening to the conversation between the two, there seems to be nothing suspicious.

Wren didn't say anything the whole time, but he had a full view of the entire tavern.

He's looking for an opportunity, and he's always on the lookout for Pisis's sudden attack.

Tuk, tuk, tuk...

The wooden staircase has a slight crunch when you walk up.

Wren cautiously followed Pisis upstairs, only to find an inconspicuous guest in the corner not far away.

"Huh... Why didn't you see any guests just now..."

He glanced at it.

The guests were a man and a woman.

The man is a bearded man, burly like a man-bear, probably a martial artist sequence transcendent.

The woman has a graceful figure and a shawl of wavy flaxen hair, but she wears a half-covered gas mask that only shows her eyes, making it impossible to see her face.

The two seemed to be talking about something secret, and even if they listened attentively, they couldn't hear what they were talking about.

"These two guys... It's a little suspicious. ”

Wren pondered in his heart.

At this moment, everyone in the room can be an "enemy".

After glancing at it, he naturally retracted his gaze and quietly followed Pisis upstairs.

I didn't know that he was observing others, and his every move fell into the eyes of the two people in the corner.

......

Two outsiders suddenly arrived at the tavern, and a flash of vigilance flashed on the faces of the two men in the corner at the same time.

But when you can perceive the strength of the person who is coming, the vigilance flashes again.

It is impossible for a transcendent person of this level to pose any threat to them.

No matter how you look at it, it's just two guests who happen to come to the tavern.

After waiting for the two of them to go upstairs, the bearded man spoke and said to the woman opposite: "Your Highness, let's continue to talk about cooperation... The conditions can be negotiated, but I have to see your sincerity first..."

The woman with a half-face gas mask said with a kind of coldness that refused to be thousands of miles away, and said calmly: "Mr. Bazel, you should know that I have come here alone to talk to you, and I have already given your Excellency enough sincerity. ”

"Hey, hey..."

The strong man shrugged his shoulders with a smile, his tone did not hide his praise at all, and said, "His Royal Highness is indeed the most courageous high-ranking nobleman I have ever seen, but he is much better than those hypocritical villains. I can't trust the Omar royal family, but I decided to believe you, and we can talk about cooperation..."

Hearing this, the woman nodded indifferently.

I'm afraid no one would have thought that the two inconspicuous drinkers in the corner of the tavern would be two famous figures in the Omar Empire.

One is the leader of the "White Wolf Monster Bandits" [White Wolf] Bazel Gustaf; And the other is the eldest princess of the Omar royal family, who is also a top master [Frost Sword Queen] Ymir Sprurban!
