109 Misled by NPCs

There are very few people in this world who are suitable to be magicians, but that doesn't mean there aren't.

How can a city of a million people make up a hundred or so children with good magical talents?

But whether you are willing to learn or not is not the main reason, whether you can learn or not is the most important factor.

The poor boy wants to learn words, and the commoner wants to learn magic?

Even if you scrape together enough tuition, no one wants to teach.

The written word is in the hands of the aristocracy, and the magic is even more mysterious, and there is no way to learn it.

But now Roland says he is willing to teach two commoner children to become magic apprentices. It's no wonder that Gru is excited.

Looking at the other party's excited look, Roland nodded and said in a soft but determined voice: "I will do what I say." ”

Gru straightened up, his hazel pupils filled with fanatical excitement, "Your Excellency, rest assured, our Grey Sand Gang will do everything we can to help you find out the news." ”

Roland nodded: "Don't use excessive means. ”

Gru nodded repeatedly: "I understand, I understand." ”

Roland looked at Gru, who was already a little quiet, and sighed in his heart.

In fact, when Gru came just now, although he showed a humble appearance, Roland could see that the other party was more just acting.

The other party is just afraid of his own strength and his identity, but there is still a little pride in his heart.

But now, that pride is gone, and only real flattery and flattery remain.

Such an expression Roland had actually seen before. When he was a primary school student, the whole country was generally not wealthy, and one classmate's family was so poor that he couldn't even pay for books and uniforms for compulsory education.

Roland saw the classmate's father, who was in the teacher's office, and asked for some forgiveness to pay for school uniforms and textbooks.

At that time, the parent laughed with him, and he was also humble to the dust.

And now Gru's smile is the same as he had seen it when he was a child.

After a moment of silence, Roland got up and said, "I'm waiting for your good news in the Magic Tower. ”

With that, Roland began to walk out, and Gru immediately rushed to the front and opened the door for Roland, while stooping down to see him off, like a servant.

Roland frowned and didn't say anything more.

He understands this kind of mentality a little, for the growth and future of his descendants, even if he is humble, it doesn't matter how much suffering he endures.

Roland left the Grey Sand Tavern, and it wasn't until he was far away that Gru straightened up his slightly bent waist.

And the voices in the tavern are gradually recovering.

Gru took a deep breath and ran to the top floor of the tavern to a door.

There was a middle-aged man with a weathered face and a reddish and black skin from long exposure to the sun.

The man was counting the silver and bronze coins, and he looked happy.

Gru slammed the door open and rushed inside.

Frightened, the man turned around and took the dagger out of his sleeve, but when he saw that it was Gru, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Gruran was a little incoherent excitedly: "Boss, Roland, the son of gold, said that if we help him complete something, he will give us a place for one or two magic apprentices." Let's give our kids a try! ”

The middle-aged man was stunned, shook his head and said, "Gru, you can't dream, magician masters, how can you give us apprenticeship places to civilians, even the nobles they don't look down on." ”

"Boss, I'm really not lying, you believe me." Gru rushed to the middle-aged man, grabbed the other man's shoulder, and shook like crazy: "This is our best chance, you must believe me, Master Roland personally made a promise." ”

Looking at Gru's red eyes and distorted face, the middle-aged man gradually became puzzled: "Really? ”

"I'm not going to joke about something so important, boss."

The middle-aged man closed his eyes and took a deep breath, his face also showed an expression of ecstasy, but he was still not as excited as Gru, but his tone became a little faster: "What are his conditions?" ”

"Help him find out."

Roland did not return to the Magic Tower, but to the castle.

Although Roland did not come by carriage, his magic robe was the best identification, and the soldiers defending the city did not dare to slack off, and after asking him for his intention, they immediately ran into the castle to report it.

It wasn't long before John, who looked sleepy, came out to greet him personally.

"What a rare guest." John's expression was a little surprised: "I thought it was Aldo, but I didn't expect it to be Lord Roland." ”

"I take the liberty to visit, there are some things I want to ask you."

John pointed sideways to his castle: "Let's go in and talk, at least let me entertain the guests." ”

Roland shook his head: "No need, the matter is very simple, just leave after asking." ”

"You...... It's too shameful to give me. John scratched his head: "The nobles come to the door, but they don't want to enter my house, and other nobles will laugh at me." Forget it, let it be, you sons of gold all have strange personalities, and I dare not provoke them. ”

John's words could only be listened to, and if he really didn't dare to provoke, he wouldn't have deliberately tried to lead Bud to turn against him.

Roland took out the small wooden plaque again and asked, "You nobles are very good at heraldry, help me see which family's coat of arms this is." ”

John took it, looked at it again and again, frowned, and said, "This is not the real family coat of arms!" ”

"Huh?" Roland was a little surprised.

"It's more like an imitation of the family crest." John said: "The family crest of every aristocratic family has a strict meaning and production process. This thing is a practice piece. ”

Roland took a deep breath and said, "I understand. Thank you. ”

After speaking, Roland turned to leave.

Walking down the street, Roland's face was a little gloomy. He found out that he had indeed been misled.

Perhaps John did have some opinions about his son of gold, but it is unlikely that he was the murderer.

When he was at Gru's place just now, when he heard that the coat of arms did not belong to the city of Delbon, he suddenly figured it out.

And now John's words made him confirm his thoughts.

Someone deliberately led him to suspect John.

There is indeed an unspoken rule of 'backstabbing' among nobles, but if John wants people to take the blame, as the son of the city lord and the future owner of Delbon, the identity of the backstabber will definitely not be too low, and it will not be a quasi-aristocratic merchant family like Edward.

Suffice it to say, Great Edward didn't even have the qualifications to take the blame for him.

There is also this wooden sign, most of which were left by Great Edward, as a merchant family, and want to become a real aristocratic family, so it is normal to make a draft of the coat of arms in advance.

And the relationship between John and the girl's disappearance, just like this coat of arms, looks genuine, but in fact it is fake.

John is hostile to Roland and other sons of gold, but it is not necessarily related to the disappearance of the girl.

There could be other reasons.

If it was really John, his backer would be a real nobleman's son, not a merchant's descendant.

Then he suddenly remembered that when Great Edward held the girl hostage, when he saw him, he had that excited and crazy look, and his eyes were sad and desperate.

Roland suddenly felt a little chill in his body.

No wonder he's been feeling something is wrong lately.

it, almost crushed by the NPC IQ.
