Chapter 29: I Need Volunteers
Pock was clearly a man of the best at the city, and he knew he was in trouble when Mike began to tell the secret between the local lord and Antoine. Incidents at this level, as a boss at the bottom of the slum gang, are like ants interfering in a battle between elephants.
Boss Bock tried to stop Mike from continuing with his eyes, but was stopped by Vittoria with the same eyes, and he could only be secretly anxious in his heart. The two people in front of them are obviously not good, they want to get involved in this big (harmonious) trouble, why do they have to carry me, can't they knock me out?
Xu Yichen sat on a high stool, crossed his hands to cover half of his face, thinking about the news that Mike confided in his words.
Antoine's butler took advantage of the young age of the local lord to control the port of Antonine with a strong wrist, this matter is already known to everyone according to the current point of view, this person must have relied on it, so blatantly breaking the rules of the game between the nobles.
The little earl obviously didn't want to be arrested, but just looked at the form and style of the Blood Roar Gang, according to some of the knowledge he heard from Master Gangze, the Blood Roar Gang was a cult cult that worshipped evil gods. I'm afraid that my task will be on them, but I don't know if the little count knows their details, and what forces are behind Antoine.
Xu Yichen organized his language and decided to use the gang members in front of him to make up for the weakness of his own people, half intimidating, half speculating: "I know your worries, Mike." But you're right to be worried! The Blood Roar Gang bought the corpses to please the evil god, and now it seems that the disappearance of the people in the ghetto was also done by them, in order to complete the sacrifice ceremony to the evil god as soon as possible, and when the ritual is completed, I am afraid that the whole city will fall into disaster! ”
Mike asked with a pale face, "My lord, please be sure to inform the city church and the city guards of this matter, they don't believe my words, and may listen to the testimony of a powerful adventurer!" ”
Xu Yichen continued to maintain his posture, but his tone was a little more cordial: "You must know that if the city is really under the threat of evil, the city guards will give priority to protecting the nobles, and the church forces here are afraid that they will not be able to take care of the slums, no matter what kind of disaster happens, here, the slums, will be the biggest victim, no one can save you except yourself!" ”
Mike thought about it carefully, and felt that Xu Yichen's analysis made some sense, the slum has always been a three-way zone, and no one cares about the lives of the people here: "My lord, my friends, and family are here, I don't want them to suffer such a disaster, what should we do?" ”
"Mike, I see your noble personality, even in this impoverished land, you still have a heart for the sake of others." Xu Yichen patted Mike on the shoulder, habitually learning from his teacher when he was in the Loyal Heir Academy: "Now, I need you to mobilize the masses, let them look for the faces around them, report anything suspicious to you, and bring me what you hear and see." I will do my best to ensure that the cultists' plot does not succeed! ”
"I'll do it, my lord!" Mike, with an excited face, turned and walked out of the room, not even looking at the stunned Polk next to him.
Xu Yichen received a system prompt: "You have influenced a person's behavior with superb words, and you have obtained part of the information of the Fa Seal, the Yakexi Fa Seal, without a teacher, and you have mastered some of the relevant skills, and I believe that you will fully master this skill in the near future." ”
This is an unexpected gain, Xu Yichen's mood can't help but be happy, I don't know how much Mike can do, but it doesn't matter, it's just a spare card, it's better than nothing.
Looking at the remaining gangsters, one by one they were horrified and watched their companions voluntarily change from coerced to accomplices, and they didn't even dare to look at the Seris man sitting in the chair. Even the female warriors muttered, could it be that New Huaxia still retains the profession of political commissar?
Xu Yichen coughed, attracting everyone's attention: "Now, I still need someone to show me the way, I need to find a warehouse hidden in the slum." As he spoke, he took out the address on the receipt.
Boss Pock glanced at the address on the paper, and his face was embarrassed: "This place is on the territory of the Blood Roar Gang just mentioned, and that piece is their property... ”
Xu Yichen grabbed a handful of gold coins from his pocket and threw them on the table: "Maybe this can make you full of courage." ”
Polke looked at the gold coins on the table, and hesitated in his heart for a long time, still not wanting to risk his life for money: "My lord, we really don't know much about that area. ”
Xu Yichen slowly dropped the gold coins on the table together, a total of twenty-two gold coins, suddenly pulled out his saber, and quickly swung a knife, neatly splitting the gold coins on the table into two halves: "Now I need to know how strong the Blood Roar Gang is, how many people are there, and where they usually gather." I need volunteers, lead the way, find this warehouse, and by the way, see the secrets of this Bloodroar Gang. ”
Poke looked at the gold coins neatly divided into two on the table, swallowed, and asked cautiously, "Is it okay not to go?" ”
"Humph!" The female warrior next to her impatiently stretched out a hand and slapped the gold coins on the table into the wooden tabletop, directly becoming an inlay, parallel to the tabletop.
"Understood, understood! We are all volunteers! Boss Pock nodded with his younger brothers.
I don't know if my teacher will feel like being cheated if he knows that he intervened in the situation in the city so quickly in order to advance the progress of the task, Xu Yichen looked at the few people who were leading the way in front of him, and thought as he walked.
