Section 193, the truth about the payment of the Grande
When Delon heard Dante say that he knew Pushkin, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly glanced around, and then asked in a low voice: "Sir, may I ask you what is the matter with Pushkin?" ”
"Huh?" Dante felt a little strange when he saw the orc boss's nervous reaction, but he had experienced so many thrilling events and was much more sophisticated in dealing with people, so he didn't show a surprised expression, but didn't change his face, and asked in a calm whisper, "What?" Any questions? ”
De Rohn's face seemed nervous, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead. He took out a hand towel to wipe his sweat and asked in a low voice: "Sir, please describe what Pushkin looked like." Why did you meet him? ”
Yes, it looks like there may be something wrong with the payment for Pushkin and Grandet! When Dante heard this, his heart suddenly hung in the air, and he hurriedly whispered to De Rohn about Pushkin's situation, and then talked about his previous rescue of Pushkin in Blue Heart.
After listening to Dante's words, Dron frowned and looked at him and Ash for a while, and finally nodded, his expression relaxed a little, and said, "Please follow me." Let's go into the inner room and talk. Dante and Ash followed De Ron into the small room inside the tavern, where the black wind in the form of a steed was chained to the stable outside the tavern door.
Walking into the small room, Dron pointed to a long chair placed on the side of the wall and said to Dante and Ash, "Please be seated." Dante and Ash sat down.
De Ron poured two cups of tea for the two of them, then sat down across from them and whispered, "You're really here." Pushkin came back some time ago, and I almost didn't recognize him. Alas, what a tragedy his father was. ”
Dante nodded and said, "Well, may I ask what is the matter with Pushkin?" ”
Dron showed a very embarrassed expression, shook his head and said: "When Pushkin comes back, he will come directly to me. He seems to have something on his side. Listen to what he means, he wants to help others collect debts. As soon as I inquired, my God, he actually wanted to ask about the batch of arms from half a year ago! Isn't that self-defeating? ”
"This ......" Dante heard De Rohn say this, and his heart "chuckled", and secretly screamed that it was not good. He and Ash looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Deron was also a well-informed old man, and seemed to immediately notice the expressions of Dante and Ash, and said, "Please tell me the truth." Are you here for the arms? ”
Dante was silent, and Ash certainly wouldn't say anything. Dante hadn't figured out what this orc boss was, so he didn't want to answer him directly, but went around, touched the iron sword on his back, and said coldly: "Mr. Drohn, there are some things that you don't need to know too clearly, right?" You should understand this truth. Sorry, I may have spoken a little rudely, but I just want to ask about Pushkin. Is he now back in the Mogaure steppe? ”
“……”
Of course, De Rohn saw the meaning of Dante's touch of the iron sword, his face turned pale, and he hurriedly waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Ah, don't do this. Mr. Dante, we have something to say, don't we? Please...... Please put your weapons down first. ”
Dante didn't want to intimidate a stranger for no reason, so he put his hand down and whispered to Drowan: "Is something wrong with Pushkin?" What the hell is going on? ”
Dron sighed and said, "That cow cub is really unbelievably thick! Do you know what happened to that batch of arms? At the beginning, the caravan escorting the arms took a boat from the Dongyang Continent to the port of Jingya City, and as soon as they left the city, they were attacked by the dwarves of Balmodan! All the escort guards were killed, and all the goods were removed. It was late at night, and a mortally wounded human guard struggled to crawl back into the city, with only my tavern still open. The guard died in my shop. So, only I know what the whole thing is going on. ”
"Is there such a thing?" Dante was shocked when he heard this, and Ash was also surprised, and couldn't help but nervously grab Dante's hand.
De Rohn continued: "Pushkin approached me and asked where the caravan was, and I didn't want to say it for fear of hurting him, but he insisted on going and seeing. I told him that it wasn't that far from Jingya City. However, that stupid hat actually went alone! He actually went like this, saying that he would just go and see it first. Results ......"
"He was captured by the dwarves?" Dante barely screamed, but Ash grabbed him just in time.
De Ron nodded and said, "Yes, I regret telling him the location of the caravan, it really hurt him." When he was gone, I quietly followed him and saw with my own eyes that he had found the wreckage of the caravan convoy and was captured by several dwarves patrolling the neighborhood. Alas...... What a sin! ”
"Damn!" Dante angrily slapped his thigh and said indignantly, "These dwarf robbers! ”
Seeing that Dante was so angry, De Roon asked carefully, "It seems that you are not from the Alliance, do you?" So I'm relieved. After all, this is the territory of the tribe, and humans and jīng spirits are not treated well. You'd better be careful when you move here. ”
Dante nodded and said, "Thanks for the reminder." We came this time to fear that Pushkin would get into trouble in this matter, and we didn't expect that there would be real trouble. Looks like we're going to have to find a way to save him. ”
"Save him? OMG! De Roon spread his hands, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "Do you know what Balmodan is?" That was the stronghold built by the Jīng Rui troops of the dwarves of the Iron Hammer Kingdom on this side of the Xiyue Continent! It's so well guarded that not even a fly can fly in! How do you two big living people go in and save him? The dwarven musket is a great weapon of death! ”
Dante thought for a moment and said: "Pushkin, as a member of the tribe, was captured by the dwarves of the alliance, and the tribe has nothing to say?" I've heard that the minotaurs are very united. ”
De Rohn thought for a moment and said, "The Minotaur is facing a lot of difficulties right now. The Centaur tribe and the Boar People tribe are fighting the Minotaurs for territory in the savannah. The Minotaurs paid a great price to barely suppress these two barbarian tribes in a certain area. I don't know how, but the aid provided by the main city of the tribe to the Minotaurs is not very much. The Minotaurs probably can't muster extra forces to attack Balmodan, right? ”
"It's not going to work!" Dante said in a very resolute tone, "We must save Pushkin!" I've got to figure it out! Then, he wanted to inform Grande of this matter as soon as possible, after all, Grande had money and connections, and he didn't need to fight and kill to do many things, so it was more suitable than him.
Thinking of this, Dante asks De Rohn about the wreckage of the caravan and the location of Balmodan, and then stays at De Roan's tavern. After everything was settled, Dantedo gave De Rohn half of the room fee and asked him to keep his mouth shut, or he would die. De Ron only collected the money and served the two big financiers with a smile.
Dante ran outside the harbor and took advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention, and released the magic crow to find Grande, even if it was across the vast sea, the magic crow could arrive in an instant.
When Grandet received the magic crow, he hurriedly asked, "Dante, how is it?" ”
Dante said embarrassedly, "This...... Something happened to Pushkin! ”
"What?" Grandet seemed to hear what he feared most, and asked aloud, "What's going on?" What's wrong? ”
Dante 1510 told Grandet about Pushkin's capture by the dwarves, and asked: "Didn't you hire bodyguards to escort the car?" Don't you think it's strange that the bodyguards are dead and haven't come back? ”
"How do I know?" Grandet laughed and said, "Alas, that time it was my bad luck. I happened to be sick, and I had no choice but to ship it, so I had to arrange for my subordinates to do it. As a result, no one came back, and I really fucking fell into blood mold at the time, and I was sick for two months, and I couldn't even get down! I don't know if these turtle grandsons embezzled the goods themselves or were robbed. Because this batch of goods was brought out of the Alliance's territory, I was already targeted by the Alliance's spies, and I didn't dare to send anyone to investigate at all. I'm really ...... Alas......"
"Yes, I understand your feelings." Dante smiled wryly and said, "What now?" I don't think we should give up easily. You are in good health now, and you have money and connections in your hands, so come over quickly. Let's talk about it together. ”
"That's all it can be." Grande sighed and said, "I'll come to Jingya City by boat early tomorrow morning. Oh my God, I'm going to have to wait ten days, it's going to kill me! ”
