The next day, somewhere in the Blade Sea, the bottom of the sea.

Wrapped in a huge bubble and accompanied by several toothed whale people, Anrui dived all the way to a fish-man gathering place under the deep sea.

It is not enough for a scavenger to find out the news, the scavenger is good at finding the news on the land, but it is difficult to find the news in the sea. If you want to find out the news in the sea, you have to rely on the fishman.

Most of the fish-people are ferocious and difficult to communicate with, but there is only one fish-man race called the "Clown-Fish-Man", who likes to deal with the races on the shore.

The clownfish man is short in stature and ugly in appearance, and there is a red spot on the nostrils on the fish's face, hence the name.

This fish-man is weak, but it has a very intelligent brain, at least much more intelligent than other types of fish-men. They like to do business with people on the shore, selling the products of the seabed to the shore, exchanging some things that are only available on the shore, and then reselling these things on the bottom of the sea to trade with other fishmen.

In addition, clownfish people also like to do things for the people on the shore in exchange for various benefits.

In order to act in unison, and in order to earn greater benefits, the Clownfish People formed an organization called the Clownfish Guild, which spanned several seas.

The place where An Rui is now heading is a gathering place for the Clownfish Guild, where you can contact the Clownfish People and entrust them with errands.

There were many tuna people patrolling in the gathering place, and suddenly they found An Rui and the others who were approaching, and immediately shook their smooth bodies to meet them.

The clownfish man himself is weak, but he relies on his clever mind. Played with many powerful fish-man races in applause. These tuna people have no trouble killing ten clownfish people at a time, but they have to work hard for the clownfish people.

The toothed whale man named Osiji stops the tuna man through the fish-man language. Instead of An Rui, he expressed his intention.

Several tuna people stayed behind, and one of them swam back into the gathering place and got into a tent covered with aquatic weeds and kelp. Not long after, a clownfish man dressed in terrestrial race clothing swam out, and ironically, he had a monocle on his left eye.

The Clownfish Man, under the protection of the Tuna Man, swam in front of An Rui. In a fluent land lingua franca, he asked, "Sir, the Clownfish Guild is happy to serve you, what do you command?" ”

"I'd like to ask you to help me find out about the Bloodblade band. Especially where they are now, and what has happened in the near future. When this is done, I am willing to pay you 30,000 gold coins. Anrui said something similar to what he had said to the scavenger earlier.

Thirty thousand gold coins is a tempting number, and it is relatively safe to find out the news.

An extremely human smile appeared on the clownfish man's face.

The deal was quickly negotiated. The two sides hit it off. Money on hand. Scattering a lot of gold coins will naturally make things much easier.

The next thing to do is to wait patiently for a reply.

The power of money soon became apparent, and the Scavengers and Clownfish Guild's powerful network spread across the Blade Sea began to dig out the news of the Bloody Blade. All kinds of information flew like snowflakes, and after digging out the wrong information, we finally sorted out the location and path of the Bloody Blade pirates!

This information is very important to Anrui.

The scavengers and the Clownfish Guild will continue to inquire about the Bloodblade. Keep reporting the news to Anrui until Anrui tells them to stop.

Right now. Bloodblade was rushing to the so-called Oxhorn Bay with his fleet, as if he wanted to go to the appointment. Judging by the time, it will take them another five days to arrive.

There are still eight days left until the fifth day of the Valentine's Moon, and An Rui will use these eight days to gather all his strength.

After confirming the location of the Blood Blade, Anrui contacted Duke Lawber of the ancient kingdom of Aran through the Sound Transmission Stone.

After a few words of greeting, An Rui got straight to the point and said, "Lord Duke, I want to borrow some troops from you." ”

"Borrowed soldiers?" Lauber's voice revealed a hint of surprise, "What soldiers do you want to borrow?" ”

"I want to borrow your country's 'griffin legion', the number must not be too small, at least a hundred griffins."

"A hundred griffins? Anrui, you're not kidding, are you? Griffins are so powerful that they are extremely difficult to raise, and even the ancient kingdom of Syria can't afford to raise too many, only a few hundred of them. The Griffin Legion is a special forces unit that is personally run by the king, and no one can be mobilized by outsiders. I can't help with this, I really can't help it. ”

"Don't be in a hurry to refuse me, since I found you, I naturally have my confidence, otherwise I won't look for you." An Rui's eyes deepened, "I know that you don't have the right to mobilize the griffon legion, but you have the right to negotiate with the king, and I want you to help contact the king so that I can talk to him." ”

"Anrui, it's no joke to talk to the king, no matter what you say, the king can't lend you the griffon legion."

"I have something that will make him happy, and I will exchange it with him to convince him to lend me the griffon legion."

"What do you mean?"

"The exact location of Caesar's Tomb."

"Caesar's Tomb?" Lauber's tone was rather shocked.

Caesar, an ancient king who once occupied the lands of the ancient kingdom of Syria, brought a lot of treasure into the cemetery after his death, but no one knows exactly where the cemetery was. For hundreds of years, people have been searching for this cemetery, but they have never been able to do so.

Caesar's Tomb has become a kind of secret that exists only in legends.

Now, Anrui wants to use the location of this ancient tomb to exchange with the king of the ancient kingdom of Aram, and Lauber will of course be shocked when he hears it.

An Rui knows the location of many cemeteries and treasures, this is just one of them, Caesar's tomb is full of mechanisms and extremely dangerous, with his current strength, he can't get the treasure inside. He wanted to keep it for a later time, but he didn't expect a bloody blade to suddenly appear and threaten him, forcing him to use the location of this ancient tomb as a bargaining chip to borrow troops.

Ji Lu is not as fast as changing, and the blood blade really him off this time. took out all the means that were reluctant to use before.

The location of this tomb is immeasurable, enough to borrow a hundred griffins.

Trying to deal with the Blood Blade that has domesticated a large group of bipedal wyverns. There must be a powerful air force like the Griffin, otherwise it will definitely suffer a big loss in the fight.

The matter of Caesar's Tomb was not trivial, and Lauber did not dare to be careless, and after repeatedly confirming that Anrui was not joking, he helped contact the king.

"Lauber said you know the location of Caesar's Tomb." A very majestic voice came from the sound transmission stone.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Anrui admitted.

"How did you find this tomb?"

"It doesn't matter."

"Where's the tomb?"

"I can tell you the location of the tomb right now, and let you send someone to find it. Once you've sent someone to find the tomb. I'm sure what I'm saying is true, and I'd like you to lend me a hundred griffons to help me deal with a group of enemies. ”

"No problem. As long as you can help this king find Caesar's Tomb, let alone a hundred griffins, I can lend you even two hundred griffins! The king agreed very simply.

The words of the king of a country still carry a lot of weight. There is not much need to make guarantees.

Anrui immediately told the king of the ancient kingdom of Syria the location of the tomb.

He can't be wrong about where he is. The matter is quite safe, and then it is enough to wait for the king to send someone to find the tomb.

During this time, An Rui certainly could not be idle, and he ordered the fleet to set sail and set sail towards the next destination. These griffons borrowed from the ancient kingdom of Aran are mainly used to deal with bipedal wyverns, and these griffons alone cannot completely crush the group of pirates of Bloodblade. He had to borrow troops from somewhere else.

In fact, you can also borrow naval power directly from the ancient kingdom of Aran. But the problem is that the navy is not as fast as the griffin, even if it can be borrowed. The navy was also unable to get to Anrui's side before the deadline. Therefore, An Rui can only borrow troops from the nearby seas, and the distant water cannot save the near fire from too far away.

Soon after, the fleet arrived on an island called Eternal Night Island.

This island is very strange, under the influence of a dark force, a black vortex condenses above the island that does not disperse all year round. Whirlpools shade the sun, plunging the island into eternal night.

This island is home to the famous mercenary group, the Shadow Mercenary Regiment. This group of mercenaries takes money to do things, does not have any political bias, and often haunts the major battlefields of the Blade Sea, sometimes helping this family, sometimes helping that family. The leader of the mercenary group is a dark warrior, and he is given the title of Shadow King, whose real name is Belmont.

The Dark Warrior corresponds to the Holy Warrior and is able to use part of the power of darkness to perform some evil and even weird skills.

Anrui needs the help of this group of mercenaries.

The fleet sailed into one of the island's rivers and into the interior of the island, and halfway through the voyage was stopped by a heavy sluice gate.

"The fleet can't go deep into the island, and if you want to go in, you can only send a small boat to row in, which is the rule of Eternal Night Island." A human head poked its head out of the cave above the cliff and shouted in a deep voice.

An Rui knows this rule, and has no idea of breaking the rules.

The Electric Eel lowered a small rowing boat, only three yards long, with two pairs of oars. Anrui led two sailors up the rope ladder to the boat, where they rowed with the help of two sailors, and he sat in the middle of the boat, dressed in a black robe.

The boat rowed all the way to the sluice gate, which opened a small gate and let An Rui and the others row through.

Behind the sluice gates is still the river, zigzag, and there is no edge in sight.

The boat had been rowed for a long time before it landed, and a group of mercenaries had been waiting for a long time to take Anrui into a castle built on the island.

Inside a room in the castle.

Anrui got his wish and met the Shadow King.

The Shadow King is a middle-aged Terran man dressed in a black and red aristocratic attire, quite tall, with a layer of stubble on his chin, giving people a rather noble temperament. Around his waist, hung a folded whip, which was his usual weapon.

"You may be seated." Belmont said lightly. The attitude is lukewarm.

Anrui sat down, not inhibited by the fact that the other party was a powerful dark warrior.

Belmont walked over to a wine cabinet standing by the wall, took out a bottle of vintage, and poured it into two glasses.

An Rui took one of the glasses of wine and took two sips, the taste was quite good, strong but not hot, and the wine had an endless aftertaste.

"Your face is very unfamiliar, you have never cooperated with our mercenary group before, why did you suddenly remember to find our mercenary group?" Belmont asked, as he drank his drink.

"The Shadow Mercenary Regiment has a good reputation, and I came here to admire it." An Rui shrugged.

"Word of mouth?" Belmont laughed to himself, "It's about the same notoriety. ”

"Notoriety is famous."

"What do you want the Shadow Mercenary Corps to do for you?"

"I want to hire you to help me deal with a group of Viking pirates led by Bloodblade, I don't know if you know the details of this group of pirates of Bloodblade."

"Bloody Blade......" Belmont thought for a moment, "I've heard something about him, he should be a pirate from the Arctic Sea, how did you mess with him?" ”

"That's a long story." An Rui concisely talked about the experience of himself and the Blood Blade, and introduced the situation of himself and the Blood Blade, so that Belmont had a clearer understanding of this mission.

"That's what happened." Belmont nodded, falling into a brief silence, before adding, "I have a proposal for the conflict between you and the Bloody Blade. ”

"I want to hear about it."

"Your fleet, combined with our mercenary group, is enough to pose a threat to the Bloodblade, making him a rat trap. You can use the strength of our mercenary group to exert pressure on him, transfer the conflict to the negotiation table, and resolve the conflict through negotiation. The law of the big fish eating the small fish is pursued at sea, and when the opposing sides are big fish and no one can eat the other, a balance can be formed, and this balance can resolve the vast majority of contradictions. Belmont said with a sigh.

"I really didn't expect to hear this kind of peaceful words from the mouth of a mercenary group leader." An Rui said in surprise.

"It is true that the mercenary group eats war meals, and if there is no war, the mercenary group will be disbanded. There is often more than one means of resolving war. Bloody victories are sometimes more enjoyable. Destruction will only bring deeper hatred. You eliminated Bai Ge and provoked the Blood Blade, and if you destroy the Blood Blade, you will definitely provoke other Viking orcs. As far as I know, this orc race is quite united, and this is one of their few virtues, and they will surely avenge the death of their people. ”

"Contradictions are divided into two kinds of contradictions: reconciled contradictions and irreconcilable contradictions, the contradiction between me and the Blood Blade belongs to the latter, even if peace is temporarily negotiated, he may still secretly do it to me in the future. True peace does not exist, and hatred can only be counteracted with more hatred. I wouldn't be afraid if it would anger the entire Viking orc race and make them look at me as a thorn in their side. For Viking orcs, if they come to one, I'll kill one, and if they come two, I'll kill a pair! An Rui said murderously. (To be continued......)
