Chapter 114: Meetings
The meeting place is still the camp bar, which is generally used as a meeting room, after all, there are too few buildings in the camp, and it would be nice to have a place to talk about things anyway.
When Li Huailin walked in, Gilbert, Gurem, and Vanessa had already arrived, but Li Huailin didn't see anyone similar to the Timas Thieves, only the three of them.
"Huailin, here." Seeing Li Huailin come in, Gilbert stood up and said, Gurem here is still not a very talkative type, nodded at Li Huailin, and Vanessa next to him waved her hand mischievously.
"Didn't you say that the men from Timas were coming over?" Li Huailin found a nearby chair and sat down, and then said.
"Yes, it should be almost there, our sentry has already sent back the news, and there are only two people from the other party, it seems that it is quite sincere." Gilbert said.
"According to the information coming in the afternoon, Earl Barrian's team will arrive in Yorkmock City tomorrow, in this case, the search will be launched as early as tomorrow afternoon, and Morin should be in a hurry." Gurem said.
"I've been to Yorkmock City today, and the security level has been raised again, and it looks like it's for real." Li Huailin also said.
"You don't run into any danger there." Gilbert asked immediately, a hint of concern in his words.
"Oh, it's okay, the other party received me very kindly." Li Huailin is honest, the guards are really kind to him, after all, his reputation in the main city is still positive, and he is friendly.
"Huh? Is it? Gilbert smiled, "You have a solution." ”
"Average." Li Huailin said, "That's right, that Morin......"
Li Huailin just wanted to ask about Mo Lin, but before the words began, a loud noise suddenly interrupted him at the door, Li Huailin turned his head and looked, it turned out that the wooden door of the bar was kicked open directly, and there was a male NPC in his fifties standing at the door, wearing a strange dark blue costume, with two muskets and a sharp knife pinned to his body, with a very exaggerated big hat, black hair, a large beard on his face and eyebrows almost grew together, and the green name showed Mo Lin. Duncan's name.
"Gilbert!" Merlin shouted loudly.
"Huh?" Gilbert stood up and said, "Looking for death?" We're going to kick you out of the bars. ”
"Hah!" Morin didn't say much, he pulled out his sharp knife and slashed at Gilbert.
"Alas......" Li Huailin didn't know what was going on, how could the development of things be so unpredictable, and he just wanted to get up and start a battle, but Gilbert here directly pulled out his sword with super speed and met it, and immediately blocked the opponent's sharp knife.
"Look at this!" Morin couldn't strike a blow, so he raised his knife and changed his hand in a different direction and slashed at Gilbert's chest.
With a "ding", Gilbert immediately blocked Morin's attack with a horizontal knife, and the two remained face to face, and the posture of the two knives together did not move.
Just when the atmosphere became very tense for some reason, Mo Lin on this side suddenly smiled slightly: "Gilbert, I haven't seen my strength improve again for a long time, I won't be able to beat you in a few years." ”
"You can't beat me now......" Gilbert said as he put away his sword.
"Damn." Mo Lin laughed and scolded as he also inserted the sharp knife into the scabbard, "Don't you know what it means to respect the old and love the young?" ”
"Your sister, I'm a thief and I respect the old and love the young, why don't you be a good citizen." Gilbert said as he picked up a glass of wine from the table, handed it to Morin, and then picked it up himself, "Okay, don't talk too much, let's have a drink first." ”
"." Maureen raised his glass and touched Gilbert's, and drank it down, a lot of it leaking from his beard because he drank it so quickly, but he didn't care.
"They have a good relationship?" Li Huailin asked Vanessa.
"I don't know why the head of the regiment likes this guy very much, obviously he was very arrogant and asked us to get out of this place." Vanessa didn't seem to like Merlin very much, and said angrily.
The two of them drank a glass of wine happily, and then sat down face to face. Just sat down, and a male NPC ran in at the door, this person is relatively young, less than thirty years old, wearing regular leather armor clothes, and the clothes are very neatly kept, Li Huailin will pay attention to this because the gap between him and Mo Lin is really big, so he can notice it at once.
"Commander, why are you running so fast all of a sudden?" The male NPC who came in blamed that it was Li Huailin who also saw his name clearly, Bill. Stoke.
"Bill, good evening." Bill, who had come in from the Gilbert business, said hello.
"Good evening, Captain Gilbert." Bill greeted him very reservedly.
"This is Bill, the deputy head of the Timmas Thieves." Vanessa whispered in Li Huailin's ear.
"This is ......" Bill asked Vanessa when he noticed that Vanessa was talking to Li Huailin.
"This is our new deputy head of the regiment, Li Huailin." Vanessa also introduced.
"Hello." Bill also bowed to this Li Huailin and said, "Hey, where is Marven?" ”
"Marven is dead." Li Huailin replied simply.
"Oh, that's right." Bill's face changed slightly, but they also knew what it would be like to be a thief, and people would die every day, so they were almost used to it, and maybe it would be his turn that day.
"I really envy your thieves, even the newcomers are of the younger generation." Morin said on the side, not caring about Marven's business.
"Alright, Morin, I've drunk the wine too, so let's talk about something." Gilbert tapped lightly on the table, then said.
"Hmm." Mo Lin's face immediately became serious, "Okay Gilbert, I think you almost know the purpose of my visit this time, that guy Balian sent a regular army of formations to encircle and suppress us this time, saying that he wanted to raze the bandit group in this vicinity, and you, I, will bear the brunt." ”
"You're the first to bear the brunt, we're the back." Vanessa next to her said.
"Hey, Vanessa, I still understand such a simple truth." Without waiting for Morin to speak, Gilbert on this side said first, "Morin, what do you mean by the union?" ”
"There are more than 100 people on my side, plus more than 100 people on your side, adding up to more than 200 people, I think I can at least resist for a while, of course, I will contact other thief groups, but you also know that a few thief groups here are just two of us are relatively large, and nothing else can be ranked." Maureen said.
"Morin, to be honest, there is no problem in uniting with my side, but even if we gather all the forces that can be gathered, the number of fighters is less than half of the number on the opposite side, and there are 500 regular troops on the opposite side." Gilbert also said seriously.
"I know, but is there another way for us? You also know how the empire treats the thieves, hanging, it's a good thing, other punishments...... I said it for fear of scaring the little girl in the back. Maureen said with a smile.
"You ......" Vanessa frowned, but after thinking that the time was wrong, she didn't have a seizure.
"Indeed, there is no way back." Gilbert said, "Morin, is there anything you can do?" ”
"Gilbert, do you know the ruins of Fagerstad in the northeast?" Maureen said suddenly.
"The ruins of Fagersta?" Gilbert obviously didn't know, so he looked at Morin suspiciously.
"The ruins of Fagersta?" Li Huailin here was suddenly stunned, as if he had heard of this name, where is it?
"It is said that there are demons in that ruin, and if we can make a deal with the demons, we will be able to gain endless power, and theoretically, even if all the armies of the empire come to encircle and suppress us, we will not be afraid." Morin said with a smile.
"Really?" Gilbert asked, "There's no such thing as a good thing, even if you can make a deal with the demon, even if you can succeed, I think you will end up being deceived by the demon and your soul or something." ”
"If it's true, I'd rather destroy the army that encircled us after I get the strength, and then die, at least my lovely members are still alive. I'm fifty-five years old, and I can't do it for long, and if I sacrifice one, I'm willing to do it. Morin took a pipe from his bosom and said as he smoked.
"Captain!" Bill, who was next to him, wanted to say something, but was stopped by Maureen with a gesture.
"Don't persuade me, Bill." "It's not that time yet, but if I really pushed me to that job, I wouldn't be able to care so much." ”
"Yes, it's not that time yet, what if the other party can't find our stronghold." Gilbert also said.
"Gilbert, I'm serious about admitting my mistake to you now, we have had friction before, I'm toasting you now, we don't care who is right or wrong, no one will talk about it in the future." Merlin suddenly raised his glass and said.
"No problem." Gilbert also raised his glass and said, "I don't care anymore, you just put down your face and apologize now, as if you said your last words." ”
"Yes." Morin nodded, "Gilbert, if I die this time, those members of my regiment please help me take care of them, and let them join your Nasser thieves, and I will trust you here." ”
Gilbert was shocked when he heard this, then sat up straight and replied: "Don't worry, besides, it's the same on my side, if I die, my members will also ask you to accept them all, and here I only believe you." ”
"Okay, no problem." Maureen burst out laughing, then clinked glasses with Gilbert, and the two of them drank it all.
