Chapter 150: The Man Behind the Scenes
"Don't ask, tell me where he lives."
"Oh, he lives in a mansion at the back of the high-rise area, and he finds one with a courtyard."
"Okay, you can wait a little longer, maybe I'll be back soon."
Edith said lightly: "You go, I've been waiting for more than ten years, and it doesn't hurt to wait a little longer." ”
According to the address that Edrice said, Bai Yan walked up the stone steps leading to the hill in the city, and the terrain gradually rose, and the scenery of Marcus City was in full view.
Nepps's home was not difficult to find, the door number was written, and there were a group of guards standing on the left and right sides of the gate, and as soon as Bai Yan approached, he was stopped.
"Stop! No one is allowed to enter here. The guard held the spear in front of Bai Yan.
"I'm coming to Nepps." Bai Yandao.
"Lord Neppus, too, can you see what you want?"
"Oh? So, you won't let me in. ”
"Of course."
"Okay." Bai Yan took a few steps back, took a deep breath, and opened his mouth to the guards and the gate with a dragon roar: "Vos-Lo-Da!" ”
"Boom!"
"Wow!"
The shock wave blasted everything in front of Bai Yan away, the iron gate of the compound collapsed, and the guards were blown into the distance, clearing the way for Bai Yan to advance.
"How is that possible!? This is a dragon's roar!? The guards staggered, stunned by Bai Yan's performance, the dragon roar is a rare stunt, comparable to high-level magic.
Bai Yan directly pushed open the door of Nepps's house, and walked into the hall without manners, there was a bald old man sitting on a chair facing the fireplace, reading intently, a handsome-looking housekeeper stopped Bai Yan, and said with a sullen face: "I'm sorry, Mr. Nepps won't be a guest, please go back......"
Before he could finish speaking, the old man stopped him: "No, I want to see him and let him in." ”
Bai Yan smiled at the housekeeper, strode close to the old man, forced his eyes on him, and asked, "Are you Nepps?" ”
The old man's eyes rolled on Bai Yan's face, and he lowered his head to continue reading, and he said slowly: "I guess you have a lot of questions in your heart, such as who am I? ”
"Of course you're an oathbreaker, respectable Neppus." Bai Yan sneered, "That's why you can command Wei Lin to kill people." ”
"Of course I am, and I must be, that Marcas City is our home, this is our land, and we must take it back." Nepps said lightly.
"So you've been killing people in the city and outside the city."
Neppus laughed, "Death of a few northerners is nothing compared to what we have suffered." ”
He didn't raise his head, Bai Yan couldn't see his face, but his hand holding the book began to tremble: "Young man, do you know about the tragedy in Marcas City more than twenty years ago?" ”
"I want to hear about it." When Bai Yan said these words, several guards had already come to the side, apparently wanting to make a big news.
"Good." Neppus said slowly: "You may know that Marcus was originally our territory, and then the barbarian northerners came, and we were reduced to slavery, but we never gave up, and it was not until the war between the North and the South that we found the opportunity to recover Marcus and re-establish our own country, but it was not long before Ulfrik came with an army. He breached the walls of Marcas, and all those in the city who could not escape, or who had not helped them, whether we or northerners, old men or women, were killed, and the city was covered with corpses and blood, and even the rivers outside the city turned red. ”
Nepps's tone became agitated, and he exclaimed, "I ran away with some of the people, and I've survived until now." And our Majesty, who is still suffering in the dark Hildana Mine, is threatened by the Silverblood Clan to make me do something for them, or else I will kill our king, and you dare to say that we are beasts? How much better can northerners be? ”
Bai Yan was silent, and Neppus gasped and said: "Although we fled to the mountains, we have not forgotten our hatred for a moment, so I am back again, and I will cooperate with Your Majesty to completely drive the northerners out of Marcas." As long as you disguise it a little, the brainless northerners will not be able to see it at all, for example, the few people standing next to you now, they are the same age as you, but they are all orphans, and their parents have either been killed or can never see each other again. Look at my housekeeper Wu Aile, her father is mining for the Silver Blood Family at the moment, I'm afraid she will never be able to come out again, can you imagine the mood of a daughter who has never seen her father? ”
"I know, but that's all history, the northerners are not all bad people, I believe you should also understand, it is only the people who suffer from the war, it is better to give up hatred and follow the new lord, right?"
"The new Sovereign? You? ”
"No, it's the princess of the Southern Empire, Ciri, as long as she ascends to the throne, your position in Makas can be preserved, and the Silverblood family will also be expelled, as long as you don't kill innocents indiscriminately in the future, isn't it beautiful?"
"Hmm.... There seems to be some truth. Nepps pondered, "As long as the Silverblood family perishes, we retake Marcas, the king is safe, and we are willing to get along with other northerners and southerners." ”
"A smart move."
"Does that Princess Ciri have what it takes to take on the task?"
"Absolutely."
"Okay, I trust you." Nepps can't trust Ciri and can't trust Bai Yan? He is the one who single-handedly excavates the truth, and even the guards can't help him.
Bai Yan made a settlement with Neps.
Then, Bai Yan left the house of Nepps and silently walked towards the tavern opened by the Silver Blood Family, his thoughts were almost complete, and now only the last link was missing.
Although many people have reminded him not to provoke them, Bai Yan believes that he must do so, the truth must be revealed, the grievances must be revealed, and the culprit must be punished.
It is our responsibility, and it is our duty to not hesitate, and we must not allow evil to continue to loom over the city of Makas.
Well, that's actually a lie, and it's a shame to say it.
Bai Yan is just for the treasure of the Silver Blood Family, just imagine how much treasure he can get from its treasure house after overthrowing this great force?
*****
After walking into the tavern of the Silver Blood Family, the waitress looked at Bai Yan with questioning eyes, and said politely: "I'm sorry, we don't greet outsiders here, if you want to drink, please go to the hotel." ”
While guessing in his heart that she was Edith's wife, Bai Yan said gently, "I want to see Tonal. Silverblood, he doesn't know me, but he must know me. ”
The waitress looked embarrassed: "But Mr. has instructed that he will not see anyone tonight......"
Bai Yan smiled: "That's because he didn't expect the development of the situation, I believe that he will be very unhappy for me to visit, but he will be willing to see me, just because he also has some questions, he wants to know how many things I know." ”
"Okay, then please come in, Sir is in his study." The hostess was persuaded to take Tonal. The silver-blooded study was pointed out to Bai Yan.
