In the rest of the three towns, the dwellings in the rest of the area are in the traditional northern style - high eaves, wooden buildings with the highest two floors, smooth lines, and rough foundation stones form the hallmark of the Tusosian people. The only thing that is different from the rest of the district is that Duran can feel it after walking a dozen steps - the houses here are more serious and even almost rigid than the other areas, and every unit is almost identical, and all of them are single-storey bungalows.

The roof of the house arched slightly upward, and even the angle of arching between the houses was almost exactly the same - this was the conclusion that Duran had reached with the accuracy of 0.1 degrees with his [Scouting] skill. Such a monotonous and neat complex makes one feel a special serious atmosphere as soon as you enter, and in addition to Kate, there are two men in black who accompany Duran into the depths of the third district, who seem to be official members of the black.

Just as Kate had finished speaking, the road ahead came to a crossroads, and from the other end of the crossroads, three people were standing.

It seems that Kate's description is not very accurate, not "they are coming", but "they have been waiting for Duran".

Duran looked at the two black-clad people who accompanied him and Kate, but both of them had thick black gauze on their faces, and they didn't seem to have any expression in them, and they didn't seem to have any intention of interfering in the affairs. However, his perception was so high that he could see any change in the eyes of the two black-clad people—he could keenly feel a hint of banter flashing in the eyes of one of the black-clad people.

Looks like they know each other. Duran sighed in his heart, he had come too hastily, and he had not yet had time to establish his prestige among the black-clothed people. More people are willing to believe that Kate played a bigger role in the process of getting rid of Andrew, and as for Duran, he is just a lucky boy.

"Hello, Sean." At this time, Kate took the lead and greeted the person opposite.

Duran didn't intervene, Kate's face was obviously a little nervous, and he didn't bother to use force if it could be resolved peacefully, which could be regarded as giving Kate a face.

The man at the head of the three was very tall, and he had blonde hair that shone like the midday sun—a hair color rare among the Tusosians. He's fair-skinned, but he's not the kind of idler. After a few glances, Duran finished exploring the strength of everyone present.

The strength of the two black-clothed people behind him was about the middle of the silver level, on par with Kate, and among the three people in front of him, except for the guy who was the leader of the silver peak, the other two boys didn't even touch the threshold of the silver.

"It's no wonder that the black-clothed people choose a corner of safety, and can only choose the lords of the remote mountains to assassinate, it's not that they don't want to, but the strength is too weak." Duran shook his head inwardly, for the vast lands of the central and northern parts of the empire, even the famous Grand Pudding City in the south was just a rural place. And in fact, it is true, the fact that the black-clothed people can stir up troubled waters in the south has nothing to do with the weakness of the southern forces. But even so, compared to the young dragon nobles in Big Pudding City, the strength of the main members of the black-clothed people was still a little inferior.

Take Sean in the trio as an example, although his strength is at the peak of silver, he is estimated to be twenty-four or five years old. With his talent, even if he studies hard at night, without too good opportunities, I am afraid that in this life, he can only enter the golden realm at most, and he can't even touch the threshold of the master realm.

And Rudy and Sinclair, who are in golden strength, can be qualified as the leaders of the black-clothed people, which shows that the overall strength of this organization is not strong, and the reason why it can have a certain prestige among the people is also to occupy the advantage of assassination. After all, assassination is not a duel, whether it is poisoning, assassination or other methods, as long as you can kill the enemy, it does not require that the assassin's strength be much higher than that of the enemy.

Such a low strength is also one of the reasons why the black-clothed people were destroyed by the dragon prince after they were said, if you want to change this situation, it is definitely not possible to rely on the current development.

"Although the three towns are a paradise, the number of people is still too small, not only lacks new forces, but also the young people who grew up here will inevitably lack knowledge, even if the qualifications are amazing and the potential is endless, they are still a dirt bun when they go out." Duran thought to himself.

Sean saw Kate by Duran's side and showed a reluctant smile: "Hey, Kate, it's rare to meet you." ”

Kate looked at Sean and said calmly, "This is Duran, a disciple of Mr. Qiu and a candidate for the next leader......"

"No, I don't need your introduction." Sean nodded, his eyes focused on Duran: "I have heard of Mr. Duran's name for a long time, but I didn't expect ......"

"What didn't you expect?" Duran smiled brightly.

Sean's words were interrupted by Duran, a trace of resentment flashed in his eyes, and he raised his voice and said, "It's just that I didn't expect you to be much younger than I thought." ”

Duran smiled and said, "Reality and imagination always deviate, don't they?" ”

Sean was obviously a little annoyed by Duran's indifferent attitude, and Kate coughed: "Sean, Duran and I are going to Mr. Qiu's funeral, I'm sorry." ”

With that, she naturally grabbed Duran's arm and prepared to turn to the right.

Duran chose to obey without any obstacles, who knew that at this time, Sean suddenly shouted: "Wait!" ”

The smile on Duran's face faded.

Kate's eyelids jumped, and she said calmly, "Do you have anything else?" ”

Sean said loudly: "Kate, believe me, the next leader of the black-clothed people will definitely not be this kid next to you. ”

Kate frowned.

"On the contrary," Sean became more and more excited, his face flushed slightly, "I'm the one who performs best in black!" Even if I had to choose a new leader, I would be more qualified than that kid! He's just lucky, Mr. Qiu's relics are in his hands, and it doesn't mean that he is qualified to inherit that position! ”

"I don't know what you're so blind as to speak for that kid in front of the leaders, but I'll beat him in the battle for the chiefs!" Sean stared at Duran viciously, as if the latter was a complete liar.

"Enough!" Kate said roughly, "Sean. Mr. Blatch, the position of the leader of the Black Men is determined by the other two leaders, and neither you nor I can decide. What's more, today is Mr. Qiu's funeral, wouldn't it be rude to talk about this before the funeral? I think I've understood your ambitions for the position of chief, so now I'm leaving. ”

With that, she took Duran in her arms and turned to leave.

Sean's face was flushed, and he seemed to be trembling with anger, his eyes widened, and the two companions around him did not dare to step forward to comfort him.

Duran looked back at Sean, shrugged his shoulders, and muttered, "What she meant was what I me." ”

Sean gritted his teeth, stared at Duran's back, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Lucky boy, do you dare to duel with me?" ”

Duran stopped, Kate tried to hold Duran and continue walking, but found that the latter did not move, she looked at Duran with some concern, and the two black-clothed people who followed him also showed a look of good fun.

"Mr. Sean, you could have said more detail." Duran said calmly.

Sean straightened his chest: "Men's duel, fight with me, if you lose, please give up the position of the leader of the black-clad crowd - also, stay away from Kate, do you hear?" ”

Duran suddenly couldn't laugh or cry in his heart, and immediately lost the mind to compete with Sean - this guy is twenty-five or sixteen years old, and he is still as immature as a second-year teenager, and it seems that he still has a little bit of interest in silver-haired warlocks, but this way is too stupid, huh?

He looked at Kate, who blushed slightly, but gave Duran a pleading look.

Duran's heart moved, and he said happily: "Okay, time and place." ”

Sean was overjoyed: "Just after Mr. Qiu's funeral, well, tonight, how about the grassland in the east of the first district of the three towns?" ”

Duran nodded resolutely: "No problem, you have to go early, I swear I will go." He silently added in his heart, "Lao Tzu won't go, let you wait until dawn alone", and then ignored Sean again, and left the place quickly with Kate. (To be continued.) )
