Chapter 17: Goodbye
Looks like I need an assistant who can help me analyze my intelligence.
An hour later, Zhuo Ao pinched his eyebrows and put the information worth five gold coins on the table, and the information recorded all the big and small things that happened in Punk Town in the past year, most of them were trivial things, such as which day, which mercenary completed a big task and received a good reward, or a mercenary found an unmined ore vein nearby, all of them, most of them revolved around the theme of mercenaries, in addition, there were also some records about the news about Punk Town.
The Holy Swordsman Lord and the establishment of the Temple of Light are also recorded, but Zhuo Ao did not find any useful information for him, but accidentally learned some news about Punk Town.
The relationship between human beings and aliens, at least three days ago, was not as tense as it is now, although it was not friendly, but it also maintained a state of peace and tranquility between the well water and the river water, and this state was completely broken by an incident that happened three days ago.
An elf was captured by a human slave trader three days ago, this incident made all the aliens in the entire Punk Town angry, for three days, a large number of aliens walked in every corner of Punk Town, and even the sky and the underground were monitored by trogloders and winged people, it can be determined that the captured elves have not been sent out of Punk Town, and are still in a corner of this territory.
The only places that haven't been searched are the Mercenary Guild, the Temple of Light, and ...... Lord's Castle.
The belief of the Holy See of Light spreads throughout the continent, and it has a sacred and inviolable status in the human race, and the temple is the symbol of the God of Light, so naturally foreign races are not allowed to desecrate, and the mercenary union is also one of the largest organizations in the mainland, how can people say that they can search it, as for the lord's mansion, it may have been nothing before, but now, it is the castle of a tenth-order holy swordsman, and the new lord is very strong and refuses to allow foreign races to enter his castle.
"Husband, have you thought of a way?" Ren Tingting boredly teased the shrunken green dragon, and when she saw Zhuo Ao put down the information, she hurriedly asked.
Shaking his head, at least based on these materials alone, Zhuo Ao couldn't find a reason for the Holy See to settle in, plus a holy swordsman, if he simply seized power, he only needed to kill this holy swordsman with lightning speed, and then show his lord certificate, it was not difficult to obtain the status of lord.
What is really difficult is the chaotic status quo of the territory, the irreconcilable ethnic contradictions, the complex situation and the purpose of the Holy See.
With all kinds of magical props, as long as the captured elf is still in this town, it is not difficult to find it, but the problem is that even if he helps them find the elf, Zhuo Ao doesn't think they will support him because of this.
"So what now?" Ren Tingting looked at Zhuo Ao and asked.
"Find a place to stay first." Zhuo Ao stood up and was about to leave, but at this moment, a figure suddenly looked at Zhuo Ao in surprise.
"Oh my God, Zhuoao, you're actually here!" In a familiar voice, a chubby figure rushed towards this side.
"Old Jack?" Zhuo Ao looked at the chubby old Jack with some surprise, who seemed to be a lot fatter than when they were separated last time, and a smile appeared on his face: "It's great that you are still alive." ”
When Tris ordered the execution of everyone related to Zhuo Ao, when he saw the corpses of Gianna and Keya, Zhuo Ao had no hope for the survival of Old Jack and Gloria, plus the zombie virus later, after all, he was his first friend in this world, and because of this, Zhuo Ao had a killing heart for Tris, but he didn't expect to be reunited here, which was really an unexpected joy.
"Gloria guessed right, as long as you live, you will definitely come here." Old Jack was a little excited and wanted to hug Zhuo Ao, but Zhuo Ao avoided him.
"Gloria? What a smart girl. Zhuo Ao smiled and nodded: "So, you came here a long time ago?" ”
"yes." Old Jack sighed: "That night, after separating from you, Gloria ignored my objections, took all the gold coins, and went straight to Punk Town, sorry, dear friend, you know, in that case, I don't think you can fight Viscount Triss, only Gloria, that stupid girl, will believe in miracles, and decide to put all her possessions here, waiting for your arrival, it turns out that she is right, you really came." ”
"Honestly, your confession makes me feel the urge to beat you up." Looking at Old Jack's chubby smiling face and thinking of Gloria, Zhuo Ao sighed in his heart and smiled.
"Hey, you haven't introduced me yet, who is this beautiful lady next to you who has the same skin color and hair color as you?" Old Jack hurriedly changed the topic and looked at Ren Tingting beside Zhuo Ao.
"Husband, what is he talking about?" Ren Tingting looked at Zhuo Ao suspiciously, she was still learning the language of this world, and she couldn't understand it, so she could only look at Zhuo Ao.
"He's saying hello to you." Zhuo Ao took Ren Tingting's hand, looked at Old Jack with a smile and said, "Let me introduce you, this is my second wife, Ren Tingting, from my hometown, he doesn't understand the language of this continent." ”
"Strange name." When Old Jack heard this, his face suddenly became a little ugly, and he nodded reluctantly to Ren Tingting: "Hello, beautiful young lady." ”
"Hello." Ren Tingting nodded reservedly.
"Okay, don't talk about that, let's go, I'll take you to our villa, you must not be able to think about what a great place it is, by the way, tell me about your experience in the past year." Old Jack nodded, and pulled Zhuo Ao towards the outside of the mercenary union.
……
In Punk Town, in the huge Temple of Light, Pastor Delin looked at the burly man in front of him with an ugly face: "Jett, do you know what you're doing?" How much anger will anger those aliens have an impact on our plans to be made, you know, Death Mountains, but their place! ”
"So what?" The burly man poured himself a glass of red wine without care: "I'm not from the Holy See, Pastor Delin, pay attention to your tone, we are now, we belong to the partnership, do you think I am willing to come to such a poor and remote place?" ”
"But if it gets big, even if it's to your family, you can't explain it." Pastor Delin looked at the Holy Swordsman in front of him angrily.
"Don't worry, how can I say it, this is also my territory, those aliens are too arrogant!" Jett sneered, "The first batch of samurai sent by the family will arrive soon, and you don't need to care about the attitude of those aliens at all. ”
"This matter is not just your family's business, once anything goes wrong, even your family can't afford it!" Pastor Delin looked at the arrogant swordsman with an annoyed attitude.
"I've got my own measure." Jett waved his hand impatiently, he hated such a lecture: "When will your temple people arrive, recently I have found a lot of mercenaries in Punk Town, these nasty reptiles, the sense of smell is very keen, I think, you have built a temple here, they have found out." ”
"I'm afraid it's even more strange for a tenth-order holy swordsman to be the lord of a small territory, right?" Pastor Delin sneered, "As for when the Templars will arrive, it's not up to me to decide. ”
"That's a shame." Shaking his head, Jett said, "You invited me here today, wouldn't it be just for this matter?" ”
"Do you think it's a trifle? If you anger the elders of the elven clan, even your family, I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it, right? Pastor Delin snorted coldly and said, "Isn't the Terran girl enough for you to vent?" ”
"How is that the same?" Jett rolled his eyes and then became a little distressed: "Damn, I hate the chastity guard of the elven race, people can only look at it, not eat it, I heard that your Holy See has some special magic, can you ...... it"
"Presumptuous!" Pastor Delin glared at him fiercely, "Light magic is divine magic, and it is impossible to help you do these dirty things!" ”
"It's just a matter of talking, why bother with such a big reaction." Jett pouted, magic is just different attributes, what does it have to do with the use, if it's really sacred, you should tie me to the cross now, what a bunch of hypocritical guys.
"There are some things that you can't joke about." Glancing deeply at Jett, Pastor Delin said solemnly.
"Alright, my friend, don't be so serious, it's time for me to take my leave." Not wanting to stay any longer, Jett stood up and walked straight out of the temple.
"The Golden Family, that's it! One day, you will pay the price for your arrogance! Looking at the direction Jett was leaving, Pastor Delin snorted coldly.
