Chapter 151: The Origin of the Brotherhood
"That surprised me." Being held by a dagger around his neck, Lei Kai didn't see any panic, not even Vaughn and the others behind him, "An organization full of ungifted civilians can cultivate so many thieves, Van Cleef seems to have learned a lot from MI7, isn't it, Miss Vanessa." ”
Although Lei Kai had not yet guessed who this person was based on the information he got from the pheasant, when he saw the outfit of this organization, Lei Kai already had some certainty.
"Who the hell are you?" The little girl named Vanessa became nervous, and she pulled out her weapons, a delicate dagger glowing green and a dagger that was blazing.
"Don't be nervous, little girl, I'm not one of those Stormwind nobles who came to capture you, I'm just a passerby." Lei Kai raised his hands, but everyone around him was nervous.
Lei Kai slowly took away the dagger around his neck, as if the thief who had received some order also watched Lei Kai's movements without any other reaction.
"I really admire your guts." A voice suddenly emerged from the shadows, "But you still underestimate Defia!" ”
More stalkers popped up from around Rekai, all of them staring at Rekai with daggers in hand.
"You're the one who underestimates people, Edwin." Lei Kai smiled, and a circle of ice light suddenly appeared around his body, and then an extra ice ring appeared under the feet of those thieves, and this ice ring completely restricted their movements, "I don't seem to be an enemy of you Defia, I just came to Stormwind City to make money." ”
"Make money? Just you're a foreigner? Van Cleef's words were full of disdain, "Those great nobles will suck your blood to nothing." ”
"So I'd like to work with you." Lei Kai said, suddenly disappearing from the spot, and when he reappeared, he was already in front of an ordinary-looking man, but this man was still in a wheelchair.
"I didn't expect the famous Edwin Van Cleef to be in this wheelchair now." Rekai looked at Van Cleef with some emotion, this man who dedicated the best time of his life to Stormwind City, but was finally forced into a madman by the nobles of Stormwind City.
"You ......" Obviously, Van Cleef didn't expect that he would be discovered, and he seemed a little at a loss.
"Don't hurt my dad!" Vanessa called nervously.
"I didn't mean to hurt him." Rekai turned his head and smiled at Vanessa, then turned his head back again, "So now, we can have a good talk." ”
Edwin looked at Lei Kai's clear eyes, and finally nodded: "But I have a request, let Vanessa go, go farther, the farther the better." ”
"Are you still afraid that I'm going to hurt you?" Lei Kai sighed slightly, "But I can't agree to your request, because in my future links, Vanessa will be an important role." ”
"You ......" Edwin excitedly tried to stand up, but after several efforts, he could not succeed, and finally sat back in his wheelchair.
"Don't worry, I don't mean to hurt you, on the contrary, I need your help on this path." Lei Kai reassured Edwin first.
……
Gilded Rose Hotel. It's a completely different hotel from Pigs and Whistles, there is no noisy environment, but the atmosphere here is much more peaceful.
And now, it's quieter, Fiona took Vanessa up to the second floor, Vaughn and they went to the second floor to rest, and now the whole hall is only Rekai and Edwin, oh, and there's a boss, the beautiful courtesan Orison.
"Tell me, what the hell are you doing when you come to me?" Edwin looked at Rekay warily, his eyes still filled with distrust.
"First of all, I would like to introduce myself, my name is Rekai and I am from Kalimdor. Maybe you haven't heard of Kalimdo......"
"No, I know, I've seen it on MI7, and the kingdom hasn't relaxed its investigation of orcs at all, but you don't look like those green skins." Edwin interrupted Rekay.
"Forget that you've spent a lot of time with MI7, so you trained all these thieves under your command?" Lei Kai remembered the kings of the shadows before, who used to be the most troublesome profession for mages.
"I trained them, but I could only teach them some basic abilities, and their talent was just so poor." Edwin said with pity, "If I were given a hundred thieves with better talents, I would definitely turn the whole of Stormwind City upside down." Let me pay back all those nobles owe me. ”
"Hey, do you mean to destroy Stormwind City?" Lei Kai was surprised.
"Why destroy Stormwind, it's the brainchild of our Brotherhood!" Edwin was also a little surprised by Rekay's thoughts.
It seems that Edwin hasn't germinated that terrifying idea yet, but think about it, this Edwin has lost his legs now, and it's not the Van Cleef he used to brush often.
"Well, in that case, are you interested in extorting a sum of money from those noble lords?" Rekai smiled devilishly.
"Blackmail those noble lords? Even though you're a professional, or you have a few companions around you, I think you're probably underestimating Stormwind. Edwin looked at Rekay with pity in his eyes.
"No, no, no, you're wrong, I didn't want to use powerlessness in the big city of Stormwind." Lei Kai waved his finger, rejecting Edwin's words, and then, taking out a handful of pearls of all kinds and a red coral from the space, "Do you think these can attract the attention of those noble lords?" ”
"This ......" Edwin looked at the table in shock, and Orison, who had been standing next to the table, already had his eyes glowing.
"Azeroth still has too little exploration of the sea, and humans are too greedy, so the rarer things are, the more expensive they will be." Lei Kai pointed to the coral and said, "These things in the deep sea are enough to attract their attention and make them obediently take out the money." ”
"But Stormwind is not a good place, if those noble lords knew that you had such a treasure, they would definitely swallow you, and there would be no bones left." Van Cleef came to his senses from the shock and spoke his mind.
"So, I need a force, a force that can knock out the teeth of those nobles, and your presence is exactly what I wanted." Lei Kai said.
"But the current Defiya is still too weak compared to those noble families that have been inherited for many years, and our enemies are all the noble classes." Edwin is self-aware.
"Talent is cultivated, as long as you have someone, I can grow him." Lei Kai said, tossing Edwin a black elixir, "Eat it, and then tell me your answer." ”
