There is an old saying in my previous life, "It is better to bully the white beard than to bully the poor youth; There must be a day when the dragon wears the phoenix, and I don't believe that the pants will wear the hole", this is very suitable for Grimm himself.

At that time, Green's strength was weak, and there were only little foxes and Ah Bu around him, and he had no right to refuse in the face of the powerful federation, so he had to join it under the half-persuasion and half-threat of Shagenman, the owner of the Golden Trout Tavern, and became a thief under the federation. What happened after that can be regarded as his bent on death, and as soon as his head was hot, he did something that he almost regretted for the rest of his life. In fact, sometimes when I think about it, I didn't have to be drained by a necromancy spell from Sandru, and it can be regarded as the double favor of Alice and Longano.

Fortunately, there is still room for redemption, so the situation has developed to this day.

Greenfield, son of uniform, Grandi II, fifth-level absolute power, really? An Awakener, the lord of the city of Origin of Jinlunga, the great hero of the Kingdom of Rodland, and the official duke who was awarded the title by the ruling princess herself. Many of his identities are known only to him, but even those that are known to outsiders are enough to deter the vast majority of Rhodes.

The Federation, which collects intelligence as one of its main jobs, is naturally unaware.

What was once an ordinary thief became a hero of the kingdom after months of being lost, and was even made a duke in an astonishing way, which is unique in history. The elders of the Federation once wanted to take advantage of this to allow the Federation to expand its influence in the kingdom, and even directly manipulate the Greenway Federation to do things, but soon the information they gathered, a few simple things, suddenly silenced them.

Let's take a look at the targets that Green has defeated -

In Idalia, the former capital of the Dark Elves, destroy the lifeforms of suspected dragons, and fight the undead on the border of the Kingdom of Rhodeland to achieve victory. After entering the royal capital of Rhodeland, Milt. It is known that it was at odds with the Supreme Funeral, and that the Meerter Division of the Funeral Society was completely destroyed shortly after he went to the Funeral Society's stronghold. During the earthquake in the royal capital, he first helped the current Pope of Hope get rid of the assassins, then single-handedly eliminated a large number of banshees, and then faced several rebellious Anglican knights, and finally led his troops to fight the Fifth Brigade of the Griffonhearts and finally won the victory.

Let's take a look at the forces that are friendly with him.

The Bone Syndicate and the Dark Elf Task Force worked with him in Idalia. Count Mrak, the youngest son of the wealthy family of the kingdom, was his friend, the Pope of Hope was also a friend of his old age, the Royal Anglican Knights always had gratitude and respect for him, and the current ruling princess and the sword guard who had assisted two kings stood firmly behind him. In addition to this, there are unverifiable reports that the mages of Endymion and the Kunari of Winged God Island have a close relationship with him, and even the Federation's senior analysts believe that he is likely to be closely related to the once famous Nameless Juggernaut.

This is the information that the federation has been able to investigate, but so far they have not been able to find out the background of this young man. So the elders of the Federation quickly made a decision: at the risk of proximity to anger. To try to manipulate such a person? No, the federation is not a fool, and it is necessary to quickly adjust its attitude to people of different statuses, so they quickly decided to befriend him unconditionally.

So Shagenman, the original introducer, was naturally pushed out.

However, the federation will obviously be wrong, and the fisherman only felt that Green had some potential, but he was more curious about his secrets, so he recruited this hairy boy into the federation. But time has passed, and Green's current achievements are far beyond his reach. Shagenman was inevitably a little unacceptable, but fortunately, Green did not intend to mock him in turn, but after inquiring about the recent news about Duke Bauhinia, he directly issued a commission application.

He needs the Federation's help to investigate the whereabouts of Grand Duke Bauhinia, who he has been in contact with, and what he has done. Although both the client and the party under investigation are the Duke of Rodland, the Federation has the intention of befriending Green. Naturally, after Shagenman reported it, he chose to accept his commission.

"So that Your Highness can be a little relieved?"

The two people who had just left the headquarters of the federation were sitting in the carriage at this time, and Albert looked at Green, who was staring at the text in his hand, and asked.

Green let out a "hmm" and skimmed through the text before responding, "The old duke is not in Charcha Harbor now. We can't afford to lose time. But after all, I promised Chid, not to mention that I really want to solve this problem for them, we can't investigate it for the time being, and someone has to do the job for us. ”

"In terms of force value, the strength of the Federation is not upstream, and there are many forces in the Kingdom of Rhodeland alone that can suppress it, but when it comes to intelligence gathering, there is no other in the country, and this sewer organization that gathers a large number of pickpockets and thieves is like a huge spider web, well-informed in all directions. Beard used to be a mystery trader, and his business scope was to sell information, in fact, the mystery dealer was indeed good at this, but compared to the Federation's network, he had to admit that he was a small thing. ”

"Your Highness is really well-informed and well-connected." The Master of the Servant smiled and replied.

Knowing that he was alluding to the fact that he was hanging as the lowest member of the Federation, Green snorted lightly and ignored it.

Since it is a port city, it is not only rainy and windy, but the roads have also become rough due to the long-term dampness, but today it caught up with the drizzle, although it did not delay things, but the ground appeared more slippery. Fortunately, Green was well versed in the selection of carriages and coachmen, and although the price was not cheap, he quickly sent the two to the main port of Chalcha. The two men got out of the car, Albert delivered the coins in the back, and Green walked ahead when he saw Samael running towards him.

"My lord, are you done?"

Seeing that Albert hadn't followed, the two-gun envoy took on the umbrella job.

"Toluna's Fu, a qiēshun lì." Green nodded, originally wanting to take the umbrella and fight it himself, but when he caught a glimpse of Albert, who was also carrying an umbrella behind him and seemed to be ready to 'mend the knife' at any time, he immediately dispelled this thought, "Then again, has the fleet arrived?" On the way I was also worried that we would be late. ”

Green had just asked casually. However, seeing Samael's strange face, he couldn't help but ask: "What's wrong?" ”

"The fleet has arrived a long time ago, but at this moment they are busy with sacrifices, and it seems that they will not be able to leave for a while." Samael said, reaching out to the other side of the harbor, "Look. The whole fleet was gathered over there. ”

Green looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, the sailors, who should have been busy loading and unloading cargo, were now all gathered on the edge of the dock in the light rain, and there seemed to be something burning on the bonfire. The young duke was a little curious, and hurried over two steps, then found the person in charge of the port, stuffed him with a silver dollar, and asked, "I am a passenger of this fleet, isn't it almost time to sail?" What are they doing? ”

The port attendant quietly took the coin. Then he answered Green's question, "Sir is an outsider, right?" The seas have not been rough lately, and they are praying for Luna to bless the voyage, although it may take you a little time, so we ask for your understanding. ”

Green nodded, glanced at the flagship of the leader of the fleet, and asked again, "Under which flag is this fleet hanging?" Ice Rose? Or Little Naven? ”

The port attendant glanced at Green in surprise, and he thought that Green was coming to Charcha Port for the first time. But he didn't expect to look away, and quickly replied: "It's Falgar." It's just a fleet funded by Tong Guò Xiao Naiwen. ”

"Oh?" Green was even more puzzled because he knew the fleet, "'Daughter of the Sea'? Isn't Captain Harvey the most objectionable to praying to Luna before he sets sail? And how did the flagship mail ship also change? ”

The port staff felt that the other party's identity was not ordinary, and they became more respectful, "You are right, but it was all the 'Daughter of the Sea' a week ago." ”

"A week ago?"

"Yes." The port attendant sighed softly, "The seas have been very violent lately, and a week ago Captain Harvey led a team on a voyage, but the whole fleet was lost in the middle of the journey, and the ship damage was found. But apparently torn to pieces by the storm, all the people on board are missing, and it must have been swallowed by the sea. As he spoke, the port staff seemed to be thrilled by the autumn rain, and they couldn't help but shudder when they thought of the terrifying scene of the stormy waves.

Green listened to him and was silent. The Sea of Virginia is a continental sea, that is, a natural inland sea, and the navigation environment is much more stable than that of the open sea, but in any case, the forces of nature are far beyond the power of human beings, and it is difficult for any ship to survive the sudden storm and waves.

But before the rise of the Dark Lord......

The thought of the possible connection between them made Green feel worried.

"The sacrifice of the fleet is over, this little brother, don't miss the boarding."

Green was still thinking when a voice suddenly came from behind him. He subconsciously raised his head, and saw a figure in a black dress passing by him with a small suitcase, and the moment the two missed it, Green just saw him turn around, and there was a kind smile on his elegant and handsome face.

...... this person?

Green was curious, but he didn't have time to think about it. The fleet had indeed entered the stage of passenger boarding, and without his signal, Albert set off to deliver the luggage, leaving Samael to board the ship with Green.

"Please show your ticket."

The sailor in charge of checking the ticket kept repeating the same words, but it was still raining, obviously impatient.

"Samael." There were only a few people left in the queue in front of him, and Green motioned to Samael to take out the ticket to prepare in advance, but Samael rummaged through his pocket, but could not find it, and hurriedly rummaged for other places, but hurried more and more until the two reached the boarding gate, and Samael could not take out the ticket.

"Please show your ticket." The sailor's tone was already a little stiff.

"Well, wait a minute, I remember it was put here......" Samael was sweating profusely, but he couldn't turn it out no matter how much he turned it.

"Please hurry up, if you don't buy a ticket, go and reissue it immediately." The sailor snapped. He seems to have identified Samael as someone who intended to evade the ticket and falsely claim that the ticket was lost, so he even looked at Green with a bad look.

"Hurry up, hurry up, I'm still waiting to get on the boat!" The man in the back looked like a hanger, and he also cried out impatiently.

"Wait a minute, I'll find it, I ......remember," Samael rummaged in a hurry, begging the sailor to give him time, for fear of delaying the young duke's journey. Green, who was standing on the side, was not in a hurry, he looked at the ticket inspector with a straight face, and then looked back at the passenger who was babbling, in fact, he already knew in his heart.

The last thing that is lacking in the port of Charcha is professional thieves, and it couldn't be easier to steal a few tickets from a berserker who doesn't know the place well. And the sailor who checked the ticket may also have nothing to do with the thief who stole the ticket, maybe he is also connected to the port that sells the ticket, and when they really can't find the ticket to make up the ticket, the conductor will say that the ordinary ticket is sold out, and only the high-priced ticket is left. Seeing that the ship is about to set sail, the anxious passengers of course can't care so much, and would rather spend a lot of money to buy tickets to get on the ship quickly, so that the passengers don't know it, and this person also makes easy money, and this kind of fraud is not uncommon in the port of Charcha. Green had seen this happen in his previous life, and even had a mission to catch the thief NPC who cheated the NPC out of money, but he didn't expect that one day, this bad thing would happen to him.

Green didn't intend to be the wronged leader, and he wasn't afraid of offending these local snakes, so he planned to solve the matter directly. Normally, the work of stealing tickets and urging passengers is done by one person, that is, the man who was hanging just now is the person who steals the tickets, and if he is taken down, there is a good chance that his ticket will be searched from him. Even if he couldn't find the ticket, he was not afraid at all, and when the matter became big and attracted the port staff, he could rely on the identity of the Duke of Jinlunga to directly suppress the matter.

As for why don't you just show your identity? For these well-known people, they would not believe that the dignified Duke of Kinglunga had chosen such an ordinary fleet in order to reach Tania as much as possible.

Just as Green had already made up his mind to make a move, and was about to turn around to take the man down, a hand with white gloves took a step ahead of him and pressed it on the man's shoulder.

"Hey! What are you doing ......?"

The man who was held was taken aback, and then he screamed inwardly, and suddenly his face turned pale, and all the words that followed were swallowed back into his stomach.

Green looked up in astonishment, and the black and graceful smile that greeted him was the one who had reminded him to board the ship.

The man in black smiled at Green, "We're meeting again, little brother." ”

He put down the suitcase, freed his other hand, and reached into the pocket of the man who was holding it. Surprisingly, the pale-faced man for some reason didn't stretch out his hand to stop him, let him feel for Green's ticket, and then gently shook it in front of the sailor and the man's eyes.

"Gentlemen, it's illegal to steal."

He smiled. (To be continued......)
