"The southern suburbs are areas I used to hang out in and know every street very well. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info Moreover, no one can sneak into a place closely guarded by Noxian soldiers alone, and if you want to go, you have to need the help of my friend, who can buy some merchants in the southern suburbs, so that we can disguise ourselves as poor people who work in factories and enter generously~"

In order to make this business, the madman Gray is almost already salivating and selling himself.

These were of great help to the two of them, who were trying to find a way to find and infiltrate the southern suburbs, and after a brief eye contact, Ezreal said cautiously, "Take us to see the situation first." ”

"Of course, even if it's part of the whole agreement. Come with me, instead of swaggering all the way around like the two of you. ”

Gray, a madman who did not hesitate to put himself at a disadvantage in order to make a business, did not even negotiate the price, so he agreed to take the two of them to the southern suburbs first, and seemed to trust the mage's personality very much.

Following the stout Gray through the trail to the southern suburbs, the whole process seemed extremely relaxed, and the only time spent was on the road.

In the afternoon, Izawa and the two, who had invited Gray to a good lunch, finally arrived at the area where the city and the southern suburbs were combined.

After a cursory look at the ground from a slightly higher position, Ezreal understood Gray's confidence that he was not in a hurry to negotiate the price.

At a glance, it seems that on the main street, there are many caravans of horse-drawn carriages driving on it in a hurry. But if you look closely, the gang following the carriage is very awkward, like the escort team he led a few months ago, trying to disguise himself as mercenaries to pass through Mogro Pass.

In addition, part of the road in the southern suburbs may be blocked by something, and from a distance, there are long queues of people lined up in three places.

"That's the checkpoint." Presumably noticing the battle mage's puzzled gaze, the stocky Gray took the initiative to explain, "Since the Noxian army was stationed, the factories that worked overtime all day have been even busier. More people were recruited from the slums to help, but they had to go through the checkpoints first. ”

"And the other roads, big and small, are guarded so tightly that not even a rat is put in them." That's when his worth is revealed, so Gray doesn't mind blowing a little bit about the Empire's military.

Ezreal and Lux watched closely below, but Zaun didn't have many hills like Piltover, and the height they stood on was too high to see too far.

Therefore, the two who guessed that the Noxians had set up strict surveillance measures secretly speculated that if they found a way to do it themselves, they would waste a lot of time.

Looking at each other again, Ezreal asked tentatively, "Gray, how much commission are you going to charge?" ”

Gray, who was still a little eager to sell himself in the morning, was a little up now, and he replied in a good time: "It depends on how far the two Excellencies want to go?" ”

"It doesn't need to be too far, we just want to get closer and observe, just get to the barracks."

"I'm sorry two of you, the people in Noxus down there are very closely monitored, and the area near the barracks is the focus of defense, so I can't send the two of you to the barracks. We can only choose to follow our people to pretend to be laborers to sneak in, and then find a way to sneak out of the factory, as for whether they can blend in near the barracks, it depends on the strength of the two mages~"

Unexpectedly, Gray, who was originally eager to make a 'deal', immediately rejected Ezreal's request as soon as he heard it, and then gave a plan that he could afford.

With this scene here and now, coupled with Gray's attitude, Ezreal couldn't help but trust this 'deal' a little more, and he said in a deep voice: "Mr. Gray, then follow your way. ”

"Thank you, Master Mage. It's just that this is a head-off job......" Gray showed that philistine expression again, and after getting the male mage's nod of approval, he cautiously quoted his price: "Both mages are going to go in, and we will be responsible for disguise and reception...... There is also the risk fee of the brethren, so give five gold coins. ”

"So tall?"

"That makes sense, Your Excellency. We're just ordinary people, and we're taking a lot more risks. ”

"Wait, we're going to think about it."

Of course, the so-called consideration is just a small trick of the 'explorer' bargaining, and all the way through the city of Zuan, he has long been seen through by the vicious-eyed Gray.

Ezreal, who had to find a way to get in after a short 'discussion' on the side, had to come to Gray, who was surprisingly calm, but he still habitually said: "Mr. Gray, you mentioned some discounts before, maybe as magicians, we can find a way to cooperate that is satisfactory to both parties?" ”

"Ha~ discount, yes. But even if the two were powerful magicians, I don't think it would be possible to predict where my friend Trist would wander, so we ...... anyway."

"Wait! Mr. Gray, you mean... Trist? ”

"Right? Trist, he and I like to play cards just as much, mage, have you seen him? ”

"Of course! Triste, who loves to play cards! I've seen it at the ball in Piltover, well... He looks tall and thin, with a well-groomed beard, but he's probably been doing well lately. I don't think it's something that ordinary people can just go into. ”

It's hard for Ezreal to combine Trist, a mature and polite lady who is good at grooming noblewomen at the Ambassador's Reception Ball, with Gray, a down-and-out adventurer in front of him.

Gray, whose eyes were shining, took advantage of his height to lower his head almost to his chest, and tried his best to suppress the excitement in his heart and echoed: "I think Your Excellency Master is right, maybe it's just a coincidence. We're all just penniless adventurers. ”

"We've been here for a long time, Mr. Mage, are you still going in? If it's too late, it may have to wait for tomorrow. ”

"Let's go, Gray. Pay a deposit of two coins first, and pay the rest when you arrive. ”

"No, no, your Excellency, the people of Zu'an never take a deposit, and I will fulfill my due responsibility."

In the end, Ezreal still had no way to take Gray, who insisted on collecting the full amount at once, in order not to really drag it out until the next day, he could only reluctantly take out five gold coins and hand them to the other party, but then he also had more eyes and never let Gray out of his sight for even a second.

It didn't take long for them to be led by Gray all the way to the checkpoint.

When the distance was not too far, Gray, who seemed to be looking for someone around, brightened his eyes again, and found a few teenagers chatting against the wall in an alley.

He asked the two mages to wait not far away, and he was within the range of the mages' surveillance and attacks, talking to several teenagers in a low voice, and occasionally stretched out his finger to this side.

Ezreal, who was on guard against what Gray was doing, didn't let his guard down until Gray walked back with one of the teenagers.

Gray, who walked back, had a bright smile on his face, and he happily lowered his voice and said to Ezreal: "Your Excellency, you are very lucky, Bill just found a secret passage today, and he can pass through the checkpoint, if you two are careful, you can go straight to the garbage mountain not far from the Noxus military camp!" ”

After saying that, Gray patted the shoulder of the boy next to him as if encouragingly, and the boy named Bill also nodded confidently.
