084 Continuing investigations(4)

Grimm and Setie rushed from Desikxi to White Rock City.

Outside White Rock City, a large group of Desik soldiers, guarding two luxurious carriages, were slowly driving through the gates of White Rock City. The soldiers, each tall, dressed in black leather armor and fur hats, held spears four degrees long, with sharp spears, pointed to the sky in unison. The neat steps, stepping on the ground, the roaring sound came far away.

"You see, Setie, these soldiers are much more elite than the frontier regiments in the west. I had only heard of the Desik Wasteland Warrior Regiment's Ruiguan Continent before, but I didn't expect that even if it was an ordinary soldier, it was comparable to the elite of various countries. Judging by these soldiers, they are at least no worse than our palace guards in Manning. Green leaned over on his horse and said to Setie.

"It should be the garrison, the direct guard of the Central General, responsible for guarding White Rock City. Setie looked at it.

In the two carriages of the noble, General King and the Earl of Norton sat quietly. Earl Norton had been thinking about the identity of the person who wrote those words on that page of parchment, who could have the ability to deliver the parchment to his eyes through General King.

The words were divided into two ends, and the soldiers who left White Rock City escorted the two big men all the way to the southeast, Green and Set, and after the army passed, they also hurried into White Rock City.

As a court magician who has traveled to various countries for San Jose for many years, Setty is also the first time to come to White Rock City, and follows Green, who is also said to be a first-time visitor, to a fur shop in the city market.

Although the Adventurer's Guild is headquartered in the Manning Kingdom of the Business Alliance, its essence is still an international mercenary organization, so even in the White Rock City of the Desik Empire, where the relationship is very discordant, the Adventurer's Guild also has a small branch organization.

Of course, unlike the magnificent "Tower of Babel" at the headquarters, the adventurer's branch here is just a small and inconspicuous leather shop, and the owner of the leather shop is not only a leather goods student, but also serves as the task of publishing and delivering messages.

The boss's name is Gülen, a little old man in his fifties, a member of the merchant alliance, with brown hair, not tall and a little rickety, always smiling at people, the Desik people in White Rock City know that this leather shop opened by the merchant league in the market is of good quality and low price, and the boss is very good to deal with. Glenn is indeed more of a merchant than an adventurer, even if in essence, he should be considered the chief elder of the adventurer's chapter in White Rock City.

In fact, Gülen didn't just look like an adventurer, he wasn't an adventurer at all, he was a serious businessman for the first forty years of his life.

After the departure of the chief elder of the Desik branch of the Adventurer's Guild, the situation in Desik's country became more and more confusing, so in order to reduce unnecessary friction, the Adventurer's Guild withdrew the adventurers in White Rock City, leaving only a covering stronghold in the city, the main purpose was only to collect news from Desik's country. On the entire continent, the adventurers in White Rock City will always be the weakest kind.

This stronghold needs to have a perfect hidden identity, it needs to be able to gain a foothold in the lively downtown area, and at the same time, it can't be too deeply involved with the adventurer's guild. Therefore, at that time, the merchant of the merchant alliance, Glenn, who was doing business in White Rock City in full swing, was chosen by the Council of Elders of the Adventurer Guild.

There is no way for ordinary merchants to refuse the request of the elders of the Adventurer's Guild, after all, in the eyes of ordinary people, the elders of the Adventurer's Guild are all big shots, and being able to get their friendship is tantamount to rain from heaven for merchants.

Gülen's Adventurer's chapter has barely received orders from the club for more than a year, and of course, his fur business has also been affected by tensions with the merchant alliance Desik, and business has recently plummeted. Gülen, who has nothing to do and likes to scratch his head, tugged at the few hairs on his head, and looked at the door of the store boredly.

Until two strangers, a man and a woman, stepped into Gülen's leather store, both of them were quite strange. The man is just that, he looks like a merchant who came to Baiyan City to do business, that woman, that blonde hair, in this northern Xinjiang city, is too eye-catching, and at the same time she looks very beautiful, and her figure is uneven, which makes people shine.

As soon as Glenn wanted to step forward, he saw the man walk into the store, looked around, and saw that there were no outsiders, so he took out a badge from his body and quickly shook it in front of Glenn's eyes.

Gülen is not young, but his eyes are still sharp, although the other party just waved it, but the badge in his hand is still quite familiar, scratching his head, Gülen can't remember a little, and said secretly in his heart, "Which big nobleman in the city came to my shop, mysterious and mysterious." But he didn't hesitate, "This aristocratic lord, welcome to the shop, if you want some good goods, I have all the best goods here." ”

"Poof", the beautiful woman who came with her couldn't help laughing, "Green, why hasn't your badge been working, come to Desik, your badge hasn't been recognized yet!"

The man's eyes were really angry, he didn't expect that although there was not much business, the "chief elder" of the White Rock City branch couldn't even recognize the badge of the general association! Before Gülen could react, the other party had already drawn out the big sword behind his back and put it on Gülen's shoulder.

"Oops", Gülen was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground instantly, Green naturally couldn't do anything, so he had to put away his big sword and take out the badge again, "Look at it again, you really don't know it?"

Gülen, who was frightened, glanced at the two of them suspiciously, and said in his heart that the two of them were too bold, this is Baiyan City, and the garrison of the Central General is not vegetarian. But that badge, how does it look so familiar, where have I seen it, think about it, I always feel that the answer is in my mouth but I just can't remember it.

Night fell on White Rock City, and in the room behind the counter of the grocery store, three people sat on a stool and stared wide-eyed. Gülen didn't have no memory after all, he scratched his head in the afternoon, and almost pulled out the last few hairs, and finally remembered that he had another identity besides being the owner of leather goods.

At this moment, Gülen, who was smiling and apologizing to Green, was only exchanged for Green's angry face and the woman's nonchalant smile.

Green has been sarcastically mocking Gülen, "I said the chief elder of White Rock City, this life is good, even forgot about work, how much gold have you earned, do you want to donate a little to the club." ”

Glenn sneered, "It's been a long time since I've heard from me, I forgot, I forgot, don't mind the chief." Green had already told Gülen his identity just now, and when he learned that Green was the chief hunter of the General Hunters, Glenn was even more frightened. Green gestured to Setie next to him, "This is San Jose's emissary, Miss Setie, and she's my partner on this mission." ”

"Then I don't know what kind of mission do you have when you come to White Rock City this time, and what do you need our White Rock City Branch to cooperate with?"

Listening to Gülen's answer, Green looked around with some curiosity, "How many people are in your White Rock City branch?"

"Besides me, there's probably my guy. Gülen scratched her head again, embarrassed.

The three of them were silent again.

Fortunately, this Gülen, although he is not very reliable in doing things, but this person is really a Desikton, maybe he has lived in Baiyan City all the year round, and he actually knows a lot about the anecdotes of the nobles and nobles in Baiyan City, including the secrets of the palace, and he can also tell one, two, three, four. When Green pulled out the broken fragment of the letter, the emblem of the Steppenwolf's head, Glenn was struck by it.

The golden Steppenwolf is the symbol of the Desik royal family, and only members of the royal family can use this coat of arms to mark their official documents. However, what outsiders don't know is that the Golden Steppenwolf is also different, and different royals can't mix with each other.

"Lord Green, you see, they are all golden steppenwolf heads, but there is actually a difference. As he spoke, Gülen drew on the table with water on it, "The wolf has a crown on his head, which represents the supreme authority of the emperor and can only be used by the emperor himself. The wolf has sharp teeth on its beak, which is used on behalf of members of the royal family who have command of the army. And if there is a raised skull hair on the back of the wolf's head, it represents the status of the crown prince. ”

"In fact," Gülen continued, "the wolf's head you have found is quite strange, with sharp teeth and erect hair, which, as far as I know, no one in Desik has the right to do so, because after the death of Crown Prince Ferdinand, there is no new crown prince in the country. ”

"So this golden wolf head coat of arms is a forgery?" asked Green, confused.

"Not necessarily," Gülen shook his head, "Actually, I think that this wolf head coat of arms is actually very obvious, although the royal family has not yet established the real crown prince, but Archduke Edward, who has been claiming to be the crown prince recently, and at the same time, he also has the leadership of the army." If anyone could use such a coat of arms, it would be him. ”

Setie suddenly asked, "What is the personality of this Archduke Edward?"

Glenn thought for a moment, "A very confident and very arrogant person. ”

Hearing Gülen say this, Green and Setie glanced at each other, and couldn't help but be convinced of Gülen's speculation in their hearts, "If it is really Archduke Edward, then his character will indeed use this kind of heraldry in this situation, a feeling of showing off and being complacent." Setie said, and Green agreed.

"What then?" Glenn couldn't help but ask, seeing that the two big men were silent. Green stood up and walked around the room a few times, "Glenn, tomorrow you go to the Desik diplomatic office in White Rock City to help me deliver the invitation, and I will visit in my official capacity as the chief hunter of the Adventurer's Guild." ”

"Oh, okay. Gülen agreed.

Setie glanced at Green, "What do you mean by that?"

Green continued to walk around the room with his head down, "I want to test Desik's domestic reaction, I don't believe it, they are also monolithic in China!"

Desik is indeed not a monolith, but they don't know that the other ironclad plate has just left White Rock City, just outside the city, and they have passed by Green.
