After dealing with the profiteers, Roger sold the gems and some ancient dwarven currency he had obtained, and got a full 5 gold griffins and 30 silver griffins. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Although he received five times the compensation for the small bottle of holy water from Blackheart Ram, with his own money, it was only more than thirty bottles, and in large bottles, that is, more than six bottles.
He couldn't get rid of that evil shadow with such a little holy water, so Roger might as well buy a few vials of life potion to save his life. The ghost's quest takes a while, and you have to wait until you have the money to complete it.
Damon's quest is time-limited, and the monetary reward is not low, and Roger must focus on this task for the time being, and he must reach at least level 3 and have enough infiltration ability.
There wasn't much time left, so he took on a few more tasks to see if he could complete them quickly, and the reward was the least important.
So, like staying with a child for a day, pay 3 silver griffins; Together with a few adventurers, he sent a noblewoman to another city for 6 Silver Griffins, and these quests also gave him 300 experience.
Of course, these tasks are actually bodyguards and escorts, and the pay is low, but the security of the tasks is very high, and they are very rare high-quality tasks, but for him.
Coupled with another small task, it had taken him nearly two months to complete these three tasks, and his level had finally risen to level 3.
Now, the biggest change in his personal information is the strengthening of skills, which have basically reached LV4 or above.
Because skill points are available every time you level up, this one is the fastest to improve.
As a stealth-based assassination class, Roger is now a bit like a real assassin.
…………
Even the capital of the Principality has a dark side, the Eighth District of Barrington, commonly known as the Slums.
The area is full of small stalls, and the corners are not only stuffed with garbage heaps, but also a homeless man lying on the occasion, and there are always many girls with heavy makeup powder standing on the side of the street.
Walking here, there will always be a little less in the pocket of a careless person, and the average little gangster force is mixed in this area.
Karp is a gang boss in Barrington's Eighth District, a relatively small one in Barrington's gray field, and his biggest mistake was to participate in the internal strife of several large families in the Chamber of Commerce and kidnap the heir of the Fadaren family.
After being chased by the guards, Karp disappeared. A few months later, the guards turned a blind eye, even if the Fadalen family was not small, there was nothing they could do.
A month ago, the Fadalen family learned that Karp had reappeared, by which time the guards had dropped the case.
The Fadalen family didn't want to get entangled with the guards anymore, they suspected that the guards had Karp's people, and they wanted to settle it privately, so they spent a lot of money to assassinate Karp.
There is no mention of completion time in the mission information, and Roger believes that the three-month limit was set by Dimon himself.
During this time, he was not only taking on small tasks, but also investigating Karp's information, and he also got to know this arrogant gangster boss.
Just like the thought that flashed through him when he first saw the mission information, Karp used to be a mercenary, and it was still a big mercenary group, but he was just a small minions in the mercenary group.
But in the gray area here, Karp is still relatively combative.
The 8th arrondissement is bustling with activity during the day, and when it gets dark, most of the arrondissement begins to feel deserted, except for a few streets.
At eight o'clock in the evening, Roger hid in the shadows, leaning against a wall, staring at the windswept leaves on the street.
Only on the corner in the distance, a few people wandered idlely.
Ten minutes later, a tall man in black wearing a hood turned the corner and slowly walked towards Roger's position.
The man in black, Mike, one of Karp's men, walked past Roger's front without noticing, and continued to walk as if nothing had happened. And Roger's figure flashed behind him, holding the man's mouth with his left hand. At the same time, the dagger in his right hand moved, cutting through the man's neck.
With a quick and sharp throat cut, after the man fell, Roger dragged his body to a corner, where there was a sewer entrance, and Roger hid the body.
In the 8th arrondissement, the occasional bloodstain on the streets is not a thing at all, and no one cares.
Who knows if some thief is not skilled and someone has his hand cut off.
The guards can't control the theft cases in this area, and they don't bother to take care of them, as long as these thieves don't go to other districts, so the punishment for failure becomes simple and straightforward.
It took Roger an hour to clean up the traces on his body and change into the same clean clothes as the man in black.
Then, he pulls out some props and fiddles with his face, and after a few minutes, he transforms into the man he killed, Mike.
This person was chosen because this person is about the same size as Roger, it is easier to disguise, and this person's status on Karp's side is very ordinary, so he will not be particularly concerned. Because this person is single, as long as the body is not found, he can continue to disguise himself.
It will be almost done in two or three days, and it will be easy to be recognized after a long time.
Thinking so, Roger sped up his disguise, his disguise skills had reached LV6, and it was basically enough to deal with these ordinary gangsters. It's just that the time to meet with those gang members should be reduced, otherwise it will be easy to be recognized.
When everything was ready, Roger sneaked into the shadows, jumped out of the window, left his temporary hotel, and made a quick forward in the shadows for half an hour, when he stopped at a turn, left the shadows, got dressed up, and took a breath.
Then, he turned the corner, walked for a few minutes, and stopped in front of a gate.
"Damn, little Mike, why did you come so late, I just missed you." A young man's head poked out of the door, and soon opened the door, "Come in." ”
Little Mike was Mike's nickname, and Roger struggled to recall the information he had gathered these days, learning from Mike's voice and idiomatic intonation, yawning, and replied, "There was a delay on the way." ”
"Don't be along, Karp is waiting for us." The young man waved.
Roger walked into the house, and the young man guarding the door immediately closed the door.
Karp's headquarters was in this house, and when Roger entered, he found that it was already crowded with more than thirty people.
A stocky, short, middle-aged man sat on a soft chair in the center of the hall, with a giant sword across his knees, and he was the gang boss Karp. The goal of Roger's trip.
Although it is the headquarters, these gang members don't gather together all day, and Roger came over today to explore the way first, but he didn't expect to see it for the first time.
There was a very strange atmosphere in the room, except for a few people who whispered to each other, everyone was quiet, and their expressions looked a little nervous, which really didn't seem like the style of these people.
"Oops, it looks like something big is going to happen today." A hint of bad premonition flashed through Roger's mind in an instant.
Two hours later, Karp spoke: "Okay, it's almost time, now assign the task." ”
"We do what the boss tells us to do." A few sparse people pulled the tunnel.
Then, with the exception of Leo and Sammy, who were the backbone of the staff, Karp divided everyone else into three groups, and the end of the group was an abandoned warehouse in the area.
Instead of swaggering, they separated, met each other, and silently walked through the streets.
