Volume 12 The Rise of the Darkwalkers! Chapter 20: An Unexpected Clue (I)
"Lord Duke of Soblay, Lord Count Thonnens," the recorder checked his name on the parchment, then looked up and said, "Yes, please let me go." [No pop-ups.][]"
The sound of sling pulleys sounded from above, and above the mossy rock wall, a hanging basket woven of tree vines was lowered from above, and two people with gold and silver masks were seated inside, one ** The strong man with his upper body walked over, put a thin rope on the ring buckle of the hanging basket, and then called out loudly, and a person came out of a hidden cave on a cliff wall hundreds of meters away, he waved the flag in his hand vigorously, and also shouted, the hanging basket sank suddenly, and shook slightly, which was the vibration caused by the loosening of the hook on it.
The man put his hands on the edge of the hanging basket, let out a low roar from his chest, the muscles on his arms suddenly bulged, he pushed forward hard, and with a "whew", the hanging basket fell beyond the cliff and fell straight to the abyss below, and then he heard an exclamation from someone inside, and he couldn't help grinning.
The recorder's voice remembered again: "Baroness Anthony......"
Hearing that it was a woman, the man swallowed and imagined the screams coming from that delicate throat, and the flame of excitement in his eyes ignited again.
Luo Lan watched the hanging basket fall, and then slid forward along a thin rope, and he teased: "Mr. Sabrandomon, your screams are not only hesitant, but also full of resentment, I wonder if there is really something sad to hide in my heart?"
Ka coughed a few times, cleared her throat, and said solemnly, "If they are willing to change a few young and beautiful maids dressed like that to push the hanging basket, then I guarantee that the voice will be even more mournful." \”
At this time, the two people invariably closed their mouths in unison, because as the speed of the hanging basket sliding down faster and faster, the fierce wind pressure on both sides also made the faces of the two people seem to be covered with a thick layer of cowhide. The air whistling past the ears and blowing the hair back and forth.
Luo Lan noticed that except for the thin rope above his head, there was no foothold around, even the nearest stone wall was hundreds of meters away, and below was a bottomless ravine, even if ordinary people looked at it, I am afraid it would make their brains dizzy.
It's a natural protective barrier.
After about a kilometer of gliding, they reached a gentle slope and the basket began to slow down. Finally, he lightly touched an inflatable cowhide bag, and with a slight shock under his feet, the hanging basket stopped, and a man with the same strong figure walked up, unfastened the metal ring buckle of the hanging basket, and the two people walked down unhurriedly.
The man didn't look at them more, and Luo Lan watched as he unloaded the basket and moved it to the lock not far from the other side. There was a pause. The gondola is automatically pulled upwards along the potholed mountain wall.
The light in Luo Lan's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "Let's go." Walking along the only deep road, the two of them walked silently for about 100 meters, and a ball of light gradually appeared in front of them, and the air seemed to become full of heat.
It didn't take long. The two men stood again in the sunlight and announced the end of the half-hourglass journey. Suddenly from the extremely oppressive environment to this incomparably open world, the scene in front of you is breathtaking.
All the buildings here are clearly in the style of the Heroic Age, with thick but delicate lines, and the huge blocks of stone make up a huge complex of buildings, but each stone is delicately carved with delicate patterns and wall decorations, and the layout is clearly layered, and the streets, shops, and residences are all in good shape, as if they are all unified within an insurmountable rule.
But the wide streets were filled with only a few people. It looks unusually deserted. It seems to be far less prosperous than what is written on the card information.
Ka made a chest expansion movement, took a deep breath and said, "Sin City." The bustle is only under the cover of night. ”
Luo Lan took a few steps forward, glanced around, and said, "Find a place to live first, and then we will slowly appreciate this legendary and mysterious place." ”
Ka squeezed his eyes at Luo Lan, and smiled mysteriously: "Aren't you going to relax, there are female slaves of all races here, I really want to see it." ”
Luo Lan glanced at the card and nodded.
After the figures of the two men disappeared at the end of the street, two dim shadows appeared where they had been standing, and one of them whispered, "Return, no problem." ”
"They're gone," Ka sighed with his hands on the back of his head, looking up to the sky, "I thought they would follow, but they don't seem to be vigilant enough for us two first-time landerners in Sin City." ”
Luo Lan shook his head and said: "Repeating the same work day after day, even the most sensitive people will be numb and tired, not to mention that nothing has happened here for thousands of years, this is an extremely normal reaction." ”
Ka smiled slightly, he pointed into the distance, and said: "Look at that obelisk, there is this thing in every corner of the city, it won't make anyone disoriented, well, this should be the hunter's area......" He squinted at the handwriting on the obelisk, and said: "Go east, through the Whispering Square, it is the business district," he lowered his voice and said, "Our goal is there." ”
Luo Lan nodded lightly.
"I said, is it that after sitting in that high position, a person will become boring," Ka looked at Luo Lan, shook his head again, and said: "But you do look like a duke, no, the duke doesn't have the momentum of you, forget it, it seems that you are more suitable than me to play such an identity." ”
Luo Lan said noncommittally: "I hope that the two people you said are helpful to us, and I don't want to waste too much time." ”
"Got it......," Ka said as he seemed a little tired, "Ever since I came to you, I've been tense all the time, as if a whip was whipping me from behind...... The whip, is that the whip?" said Ka paused, and pointed ahead in a daze.
"Get out of the way!"
A bare-shouldered woman whipped a passer-by in front of her with a long whip, knocking over a fruit stall, her upper and lower body clothes were not how revealing, but they were all tightly clinging to her body, outlining the deadly curves of her breasts and hips like mountains, and her clothes were still covered with fine scales. Full of seduction and wild wildness.
But in the face of such a stunner, no one dared to take a look, but there is no simple role in the city except for slaves, the passerby who was knocked down jumped up, he looked at the woman with angry eyes, but after seeing the bewitching face of this woman, he seemed to have any scruples, but a hesitant look appeared on his face, and finally glared at the latter fiercely, snorted, and hurriedly walked away without even having time to shoot the dust on his body.
The glamorous woman looked at the person with disdain, straightened the whip in her hand with a "snap", spat on the ground, and said, "No seed!"
She took out a gold coin from her belt and threw it at the roadside vendor, saying, "I'll pay you." ”
The vendor had clearly seen much of this, and he took it without hesitation, and bent down to thank him.
The woman was visibly pleased with the merchant's cheerfulness, and she flicked her whip with a crisp sound, and twisted her slender waist toward a tavern. ”
Ka exhaled slowly, and said, "It's her, since she's here, then her sister is also in that inn, well, I'll leave this to me......"
Luo Lan frowned and said, "Are you sure?"
He patted Luo Lan's shoulder and said, "......Lord Duke, it seems that another woman can only be handed over to you, you should be able to handle it......, right?"
"Yes," Luo Lan smiled faintly and said, "Are you so sure you won?"
"Of course!" Ka smiled, then he glanced at the woman's violent back, sighed, and said, "I hope I can be there on time......
At the same time in the hotel, Aisinaya sat alone at the table, every week she would come to this hotel, lightly sipping a cup of unique oriental tea, she turned her eyes to look at the blue sky outside, her delicate facial features glowed with beautiful brilliance under the touch of the gentle sun, but the too cold expression did make the guests on the side unconsciously stay away from her,
At this time, a man with a golden mask walked in, and it was obvious that it was a young man, he stood at the door and looked around, this dress did not make the waiter feel strange, but added a bit of respect, in fact, the foreign nobles of Sin City are dressed like this.
The man's gaze quickly fell on Esnaya, but when he saw the ring on the latter's finger, he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, as if he remembered something, and after thinking for a moment, he walked straight to Esnaya and sat down in front of her.
Asnaya's eyebrows couldn't help but frown slightly, and there was a hint of displeasure on her face.
"I have something for you to show that will be of interest to you. The young man said in a deep voice.
Esnaya sneered in her heart, is it such a pick-up routine again? She has been annoyed by these nobles who have nothing to do all day, and she is about to put on her identity to scare the other party away, but when she sees something exposed in the other party's hand, her body can't help but shake.
"Meet tonight at the Black Pigeon Inn. There was an unmistakable majesty in the young man's words, and he dropped the words, ignored Ainaya's complicated gaze, stood up and walked out without looking back.
