Captain Warburton had recovered from the previous onslaught, and when he looked at the two teammates who had died in the first wave of the attack, the squad leader of the vigilante couldn't help but feel sad. β–³ Top Novel,

At the same time, the eyes looking at him towards Barrett also became a little cold. Because if Barrett had rushed forward at the first moment of the boxer's attack, he might have been able to save the vigilante who had been shot in the head.

However, from Barrett's point of view, those vigilantes who have only met a few times are obviously less important than their companions who accompany him all the way to "birth and death". In the face of the unimpressed attacker, Barrett also needed a buffer to assess his fighting style before he could react next.

In a sense, the sacrifice of that aboriginal was the inevitable result of Barrett's choice. Although the captain of Warburton was not aware of Barrett's psychological changes, he saw that he was the first to pull his teammates back.

But no matter how angry Captain Warburton was at Barrett's behavior, he could only bury this feeling deep in his heart now.

On the one hand, it was because Captain Warburton did not blame Barrett for the position of these collaborators - in any case, the other party solved the attacking strong enemy, and it was considered to save his own team.

On the other hand, it is because Barrett and his party are currently the strongest combat force hired by the "Golden Thorn Bird" Viscount. It will be difficult to find alternatives, at least in the short term.

Captain Warburton knew what he was going to do for a dead man and the adventurers in front of him. It is very likely to affect the next plan of the Viscount of "Golden Thorn Bird". At that time, I will definitely not end well.

Although reason has been telling sΓΉ that he must be calm. But the companion who gets along day and night dies in front of him like this. But it was always like an evil fire burning in Captain Warburton's heart.

After nearly a minute of self-suggestion. He came to the boxer's body as if nothing had happened, and began his own examination.

It was only then that Captain Warburton felt a little glad - before leaving the "McLang Tavern", the thieves and guild cadres who had been captured from under the tavern had been taken away by another security team.

Otherwise, under the surprise attack just now, these experienced old ghosts would have taken advantage of the dust and chaos to escape. At that time, if you want to get them back, you will have to play peek-a-boo with them in the ruins of the slum - it will be very difficult to catch them again in that situation.

It is unknown whether intentionally or unintentionally, Barrett's previous attacks have all avoided the attacker's face. It seems to have been specially designed to facilitate the identification of the corpse. Captain Warburton flicked the corpse's head to look left and right, but he never found any information from his memory.

After discovering that it was impossible to find the right information based on appearance alone. Captain Warburton directly opened the other party's clothes, trying to find any clues from the other party's body.

It's a pity that after some fiddling, a sleek corpse appeared in front of me. But Captain Warburton's expression was still solemn, and after many fruitless investigations, he had to shake his head and sigh: "I can't find any news related to this attacker." It's like this guy fell from the sky. He doesn't have any tattoos on his body, so there's no way to tell if he's a member of the Thieves' Guild. And there's nothing else to identify yourself......"

Regardless of the type of thieves' union, they often have their own tattoos on the bodies of their members. This tattoo represents union membership and is a way to show their loyalty to the union.

Although the location of the tattoos varies from Guild to Guild, according to Captain Warburton's knowledge, all members of the Thieves' Guild in Port Walter fall into the category of tattoos that must be tattooed. This is an easy and effective way to identify.

The situation in front of them was like a clear warning to everyone that the attacker had nothing to do with the thieves' unions they were targeting todayβ€”at least not in the light of it.

Plus when this guy travels. It was as if he was a dead soldier who had been prepared again, and he didn't carry anything related to his identity. After some searching, Captain Warburton, who found no clues, could only scratch his head.

"Like it fell from the sky?" Rielly looked stunned.

Claudia. Auditore was even more incredulous and wanted to go up and check it out for himself. However, the impact of facing a man's naked corpse is too great for a young woman.

Claudia just caught a little in the corner. Auditore. He immediately turned his head to the side and asked angrily, "How can there be no news?" Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird" is also the territorial owner and administrative head of Port Volta! How can there be no news of such a person under his rule? ”

Barrett, who is now half-paralyzed, had to speak out to relieve the embarrassed Captain Warburton: "Rats have rat paths, snakes have snake paths!" Even if it is a city in the clouds shrouded in a mystery, it does not dare to say that it has mastered the list of people who enter and leave the country. Not to mention places like Port Volta. ”

"That is, what is the identity of this guy and why he attacked us. Can't we figure it out? "Claudia. Auditore said angrily.

"Don't worry! Just because we can't find the information right now doesn't mean that others can't find it either. As he spoke, Barrett also felt Clematis. The bursts of vitality coming from Bot's hands were rapidly promoting the healing of the wounds in his body.

"Mr. Boreham, do you mean to bring the body back to the borough so that Lord Viscount can find someone to identify it?" Captain Warburton asked with some hesitation.

"I want to ask a question!" Saying that, Barrett stretched out his finger: "Is it possible for a low-level (level 7) warrior of the Red Iron to be unknown in Walter Harbor?" ”

"A low-level warrior of the Red Iron?" Captain Warburton was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the naked corpse on the ground.

Barrett, who was propped up with a Mo knife, nodded very affirmatively: "At least it's a low-level (level 7) of red iron, if it is not only the power of one blow." Judging from the fact that he has mastered the situation of the heavenly generals. The middle hematite section (grade 8) is more likely. ”

"How could such a character be here. And also to attack us? Captain Warburton stared at the corpse of the boxer on the ground in amazement, and then began to sweep back and forth between it and Barrett with a monster-like look.

The Red Iron rank (level 6-10) is already an elite that ordinary people can reach on the mainland. They are usually famous figures of the party, prominent local heroes.

And the fame spreads to nearby towns. When you walk into the shop, the owner will come out to greet you in a hurry. Alone can easily sweep a group of goblins unscathed, and the cooperation of three or five companions is enough to make some "amazing" achievements.

The best of them even have their own independent forces, and they don't have to look at other people's faces to do things. Anyone who shows their name has to give some face, and every move may be recorded and reported by someone with a heart. Holding the lifeblood of some industry or gang, it has a lot of secrets that no one knows.

Although in the metropolis. Such figures may not be uncommon. But in a place like Port Volta, if not deliberately concealed, it is almost universally known.

In fact, in the case of Viscount Christol of the "Golden Thorn Bird", after more than 100 years of suppression by the royal family, there are few members of the red iron rank that he can use on the surface. Not to mention those above the Black Lead (11-15) ranks. That's why Captain Warburton felt so anxious about the sudden appearance of an enemy who was at least a low-level hematite.

Realizing that Captain Warburton should have thought of something, Barrett struck while the iron was hot: "Let's take this corpse to the administrative district now!" I think the Viscount should be more concerned about the origin of the corpse in front of him than the Thieves' Guild, which can be solved at any time. ”

"Nope! Can't go back now. Anyway, the matter of transporting the corpse does not require many people to do it. I'll arrange the staff, and the rest of us will be able to move on to the next task together. Captain Warburton immediately shook his head. Looking at him, it seems that he doesn't want to leave any unfavorable impression in front of the "Golden Thorn Bird" Viscount.

Barrett stretched out his finger and smiled bitterly: "Do you think that after the battle just now, can I continue today's mission in my current situation?" ”

"Isn't the priest in the team already healing? Besides, there are 5 people in your team, so you can't say that you can't do anything without it! Captain Warburton said reluctantly.

It's a pity that he didn't get the authority to forcibly command these adventurers in front of him from the Viscount of the "Golden Thorn Bird" before. On the contrary, it was Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird" who asked him to fully cooperate with Barrett and other outsiders to solve the problem at hand. So even if you are no longer willing. He also had to listen to Barrett and his party.

"The current situation can't be recovered by relying on healing alone." After glancing at Captain Warburton, Barrett shook his head helplessly: "With my physique, if you want to recover naturally, you have to wait at least 4-5 days." But I think Miss Bott is the time for you to pray tomorrow. Preparing me with a secondary recovery surgery should solve the problem. ”

At the same time, Rieli also roared at this time: "Don't think that the personnel of the adventurer team is just for seeing! Barrett is the best attacker in our team, and without him, the combat effectiveness of the team will drop by at least 3%. ”

"Alright! All right! Captain Warburton reluctantly agreed, adding, "But you must explain the reason for the suspension of the mission to the Viscount yourself." ”

"Don't worry!" "The Viscount will definitely understand our intentions." Instead of worrying about the hostile elements who have been under control, the enemy in front of you, who has been hidden in the past, is the one that needs to be taken seriously. Barrett's brow furrowed again, apparently cracking his ribs still aching in his chest.

But after Clematis. After Bot heals 2 spells in a row that heals moderate damage and one spell that heals minor damage. The HP on Barrett's character panel has been restored to a safe range, and only the scarlet "Fracture" in the status bar tells Barrett that he is not at his best.

Barrett was finally able to stand up. The first thing he did after letting go of the Mo knife. He stepped forward and picked up the brown linen belt that had been thrown on the ground when he had examined the corpse. There was also an unknown ivory or tiger bone carved into a fist-like necklace - as the boxer's killer. Barrett was naturally going to pick up his spoils.

These two items, if Barrett guessed correctly, should be the Heavy Punch Charm and the Warrior Monk's Belt. Among them, the Heavy Punch Charm allows the wearer to gain +1 to +5 enhancements on the attack and damage checks of Innate Weapon Attacks and Unarmed Attacks as if they were blessed with Magic Fang. Of course, the amulet can also enchant certain melee weapon special abilities - as long as they can be applied to unarmed attacks. This should be the cheapest +1 punch amulet.

And the warrior monk's belt is even more powerful because it directly enhances the warrior monk's special abilities. It is well known that the warrior monk is well trained to dodge and has a unique sixth sense, which allows him to subconsciously dodge attacks. He has been trained in hand-to-hand combat, so he is also very powerful in hand-to-hand combat.

When put on, this simple brown belt gives the user the ability to fight hand-to-hand. If the wearer has a warrior monk class level. When calculating the Monk's bonus defense and unarmed damage, he is considered to be one end above the normal Monk's level (level 5). If the wearer has Stare Strike ability, they receive an additional Stun Strike use once a day. If the wearer is not a Monk, they will receive a Monk bonus for defense and unarmed damage, just like a level 5 Monk (although it is not possible to add a Perception bonus to defense). This defense bonus works in the same way as the Warrior Monk's defense bonus.

It can be said that these two items can greatly enhance the combat power of low-level warrior monks. Falling into the hands of the right person can be called a good thing that cannot be exchanged.

Then the security guards put on the clothes that had just been pulled off for the corpse, so that he would not appear naked in front of the Viscount of the "Golden Thorn Bird" and other adults like he was now. At the same time, the rest of the team members also took the opportunity to seize the time to rest and recuperate.

Although there was an extra corpse, with the efforts of the security guards, the return journey was not much more troublesome than when they came. The players who returned to the Civic District immediately took the corpse with Captain Warburton to meet Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird".

After listening to the player's and Captain Warburton's story, Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird" looked at the corpse in front of him and fell into deep thought. After a long moan. He looked up again: "Mr. Boram! May I ask you that in your current situation, is it impossible to completely lose your combat ability? ”

"It's not a complete loss. However, the rib injury will have an impact on my movements. I am concerned that in the current situation, I may not be able to satisfactorily fulfill your request for the task, Lord Viscount. Speaking of this, Barrett stressed worriedly, "And I'm more worried that now that this red iron fighter has appeared. Is there only one person hiding in the slums who is hostile to you, Lord Viscount? In my current situation, if there is another enemy of the same strength, I am afraid I will not be able to deal with it. ”

"Are you worried that there is more than one such enemy?" The expression on Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird" became even more gloomy. He also knew that if there were too many such enemies, it would inevitably affect his next plans.

"There are concerns about that." Barrett nodded first, and then seemed to remember something: "But Lord Viscount, I think the most important thing now is to figure out why this guy is in Port Walter." Although the warriors of the red iron rank are not very rare, they are not the lettuce of geography. There must have been a special reason for their sudden appearance in Port Volta. ”

"Do you think my actions have been discovered by the guys at Craigie?" Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird" suddenly became difficult to look at.

"It may not be an order from the royal capital. Can you recall where the Etasia royal family was closest to Port Voltath? Let's see if they have found any clues and sent spies or reinforcements. Speaking of this, Barrett turned his gaze out the window, "There are also those die-hards of the Etasia royal family in the garden district. Is there something hidden under their men that hasn't been put on the table? ”

"Wait a minute!" Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird" turned to Captain Warburton on the side and ordered, "Go and get Mr. Esmunger here." Remember to be fast! ”

"Understood, sir!" This solemn atmosphere in front of him made Captain Warburton immediately understand the severity of the situation in front of him. He immediately turned around and walked out of the room, to invite the most important ally of the Viscount of the "Golden Thorn Bird" to come and discuss.

After Captain Warburton left, the atmosphere in the room fell into an eerie solemnity. As the captain of the Bloodstained Gray Flower Squad, Barrett's eyes never left Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird". It seemed like he wanted to learn more from his expression. And the Viscount "Golden Thorn Bird" devoted most of his attention. All remained on the corpse in front of him.

Fortunately, Mr. Esmunger is temporarily settled in the town mansion. It didn't take long for Captain Warburton to lead him to his office. After entering the room, Mr. Esmunger's eyes were also attracted by the corpse in front of him.

After circling the corpse, he touched his chin and commented: "Strong muscles, strong limbs, tough epidesis...... He should already be an awakened person who has mastered part of his body and his own mysteries. ”

"You're right! So Mr. Esmunger, can you find out more about these attackers through your own channels? Barrett, who turned his head, asked.

"You don't necessarily need any channels! I haven't mentioned it to you before. I'm a bard by profession. For us, all kinds of rumors are very familiar. But it takes enough information to be able to match the guy in front of me with the words in my memory. Speaking of which, Mr. Esmunger looked at Barrett again, "Tell me about your experience with him!" Maybe I'll be able to recall something just by relying on these prompts. ”

"This guy's strength is pretty good. Coupled with the acceleration of the charge, it can penetrate the average vigilante......" As the soldier who killed the attacker, Barrett had to take charge of the narration again.

"Wait! Wait! Are you saying that the fighting techniques this guy uses are Heaven's Spirit? Mr. Esmunger's expression became a little agitated, as if he had caught some clue.

Seeing this, Barrett immediately nodded, "That's right! I'm pretty sure it's going to be a storm. Because this technique is also practiced in the Boreham family, I have seen others use it before. However, the use of the heavenly general in front of him feels very reluctant. ”

"Of course barely! The strength of this guy in front of him should not be enough to completely control the extremely fierce moves of the Heavenly General Benlie. Mr. Esmunger smiled as he said this, "I think I should have roughly locked down the range of this attacker." Please, Lord Viscount, and I'll wait for me for a few minutes. ”

After saying this, Mr. Esmunger waved his hands and took out a stack of cards from nowhere. Then he played divination directly at the nearest table. People who knew that what he was doing might be some kind of special magic or secret art. They all held their breath and didn't dare to make a sound.

When the last opening shot was lifted off the table, Mr. Esmonk's face became a little difficult to look at. He said very sternly, "Your Excellency. I think someone is aware of our actions. ”

"You mean the guys from Craigie?" The face of the Viscount of the "Golden Thorn Bird" became even more ugly than before.

"It shouldn't have reached the point where it's not so strict! But the nails sent by the royal family near your territory should have sensed something! Mr. Esmunger pointed to the corpse on the ground, "If I'm not mistaken, this guy's name is Alexa. Cosgriff. Originally a well-known underworld tycoon in the city of Hamhill, north of your territory. Known as the "Vulture", he disappeared five years ago. Originally, I thought it was a death in the gang infighting, but now it seems that it should have been absorbed by the intelligence organization under the royal family. ”

"So when will reinforcements from the Battle League arrive? I don't want to face the royal army before your men get here. In that case, we have no chance of winning. "Golden Thorn Bird," Viscount said with a gloomy face.
