Barrett knew that his previous conjecture had been confirmed. He made a slightly thoughtful look: "Mr. Sainoa, the current situation is really unfavorable for us!" There is no need to worry too much about the water source when there is a well, but the food reserve is decreasing day by day. Curling up in the house like this and consuming it with the other party, can it really force back the Silver Shark and the Black Dagger? ”

"It's very disadvantageous, but the pressure on our side is so great, and the pressure on those businessmen is not small. The conflict between the Silver Shark and us has led to a drop of more than forty percent of the caravans in this small city of Hammer. Add to that the other losses, and for every day that goes into this situation, those merchants shed one more day of blood. It's like saying something that has nothing to do with you. Even if you are trapped in the old house,. Although more than 50 years of operation is not long, it should not be underestimated by others.

Rielly pressed her index finger to her seal and asked incredulously, "But Mr. Senoah, since the merchants have invited the attackers, they must have been prepared for this." ”

"This young mage, you should know that the merchant who manages Hammer City is not the same, and there is a lot of conflict between their ideas and ideas. At present, it is only a few families interested in our family who have temporarily suppressed others. "Is an ethereal rumor really worth it for them to pay so much? ”

It can be seen that the head of the Sainoa family is really feeling a little tired now. A rumor that I don't know if it's true or not, in a short period of time, led a originally prosperous family to the point that they didn't dare to go out in the city. This is not so easy for anyone who has experienced it firsthand.

"Ethereal rumors?" Noodle's face is written all over 'I don't believe it'.

Rielie was also ugly: "? I don't think that businessmen who were able to take over the taxes and administration from the lords would make such a lowly mistake. They must have done their research before they did it. Only after having accurate information will we invite the violent gangs like Silver Shark to cooperate. ”

The mage's statement is not wrong, no matter what world the business competition is, it is not a child pretending to be a family wine. Blood and filth flowed from every pore of the beast of capital. It is impossible for each of them to act without confirming the authenticity of a piece of information...... Barrett's eyes even twitched slightly in her knuckles.

"Guys, don't get so excited? I think it's better to be tactful on this topic! Since the violent mage in the team finished singing with a red face, Barrett naturally hurriedly took on the white face: "We're not peeping at anything. I just want to know how determined those guys out there are and how much they are willing to pay. To be honest, on the first day we were here, we killed the three loitering men of the Black Dagger because of the counterattack. Now it can be said that it is a grasshopper on a rope with the Sainoa family. Even if we want to betray you, those guys in the house across the street won't let us go. ”

"You said you killed ......". The Senoa family speaker stared at the four players with his own eyes for a few moments before breaking the silence in the hall: "If I'm not mistaken, Mr. Barrett should be a member of the Boreham family!" In this case, I think you should know what happened to the only black dragon in the northwest of the Big 6 in the past few decades! ”

"The only black dragon to die at the hands of man?" Barrett was stunned for a moment, then nodded suddenly in realization: "Mr. Sainoa." I think I get what you mean. I'm here to apologize to you for me and my companions, and those words just now are so rude. Then you can give us the tasks that we can."

"If you don't need it for the time being, you should have a good rest today!" If you add new people to the original patrol team, it is easy to make mistakes if you don't plan well. Sophia, you personally lead these gentlemen to the upstairs rooms, I think there should be some left. ”

"Father, I'll arrange it." Saying that, the girl, whose expression hadn't changed much since they met, walked in front of the players: "Come with me, several!" There is a family-style house on the second floor. ”

"Those are troublesome Miss Sainoah." Barrett showed his friendly side to each of the two hosts in the hall: "Mr. Senoa. Then our blood-stained gray flower mercenary group will retire for the time being. ”

Following in the footsteps of Miss Sophia, the players leave the hall and re-enter the corridor, then step up the steps to the second floor. A few of Barrett's companions followed,.

But no matter how Noodles and Rielly winked at him, Barrett didn't make it clear here. Perhaps understanding each other's concerns, the two of them temporarily died down after Rielly's fingers were successful.

"Miss Sainoa! I have one thing I want to ask you about, in the previous conflict with the Silver Shark and the Black Dagger. What about the casualties of the Sanoa family. As Barrett spoke, Sophia on the steps suddenly stopped.

Barrett, who couldn't see the other party's expression (even if he could see the other party's face, he might not be able to see the specific expression change), his heart suddenly changed, and he quickly added a sentence to explain: "Of course you find it inconvenient." It is also possible not to answer this question. I apologize again for bringing back bad memories of the passing of someone you know. ”

Sophia, who turned her head, looked at Barrett with a blank expression, and then restarted her steps. Accompanying the pace of her continued progress appeared her voice, which seemed to be unchangeable: "During this time, we have had a lot of conflicts with the silver shark and the black dagger. And although this mansion was built with the rebellious soldiers entering the city in mind, it is not a real fortress after all. The damned robbers had broken into the mansion three times. We have suffered a lot of casualties. But fortunately, my sister is the priest of our lord Bahamut, and her efforts have allowed many of the wounded to hold on to their lives. ”

"Priest of Bahamut!" Rielly exclaimed when she heard this. Immediately, she knew that she had to be a little too out of shape. He hurriedly apologized to Sophia and said, "I'm very sorry Miss Sainoa, this incident is really surprising to me. The priest of the Dragon God of Good is too rare. ”

"It doesn't have to be this way. In fact, many outsiders who have heard this news before will have this kind of expression. Sophia, whose tone remained the same, should have accepted Rielly's apology. But I always wonder if His Highness Bahamut is as rare a priest as you say? I remember that my grandfather was also a priest in Bahamut. You non-dragonborn expressions are too exaggerated. ”

Regardless of Sophia's point of view. But above the big 6, this dragon god of goodness has almost no priests, and he can't see the temple. First, because His Highness is arguably one of the most compassionate beings in the multiverse, willing to accept the worship of a good priest. The second is that the number of dragons is scarce, even if it is expanded to half-dragons and dragonborns, it is not much. Missionary work is based on civilized society, and since it is difficult for groups of faith to form social communities. Naturally, the pastor in charge of the mission became scarce.

Hearing this, several players looked at each other and smiled, and they suddenly had such a thought in their hearts: "No wonder the strength of the Isai Noah family is also recognized by the system as the Dragon Vein family!" From time to time, if someone becomes a rare dragon god priest's family and is not recognized as a dragon vein family, then there is a real problem! ’

I don't know if it's because of solving a mystery in my heart, the spirit of several players seems to have become a little different.

"I don't think it's that we non-dragonborn people are too exaggerated, it's that His Highness's priest outside is too rare. Even the Beverstock family in Boreham's territory. I haven't heard of anyone who has become the priest of His Highness in these decades! As he spoke, Barrett asked tentatively, "If it weren't for this incident, I don't think many people would know about your sister being a priest!" ”

After a slight pause, Sophia seemed to confirm something in her mind, and her pace slowed down. It wasn't until everyone stepped on the floor on the second floor that the eldest daughter of the Sainoa family replied: "Our family really didn't deliberately publicize this news outside. However, the Beversstock family, who are also dragonborns, should know about this. Every time before and after the festival of His Royal Highness, they would send people to bring sacrifices. ”

The conversation just now can be said to be the first good news that all of you have heard these days. Noodle, who hadn't laughed since the attack on the alley, felt like a burden had been lifted from his words: "Anyway, having a pastor really makes people feel safer." ”

Suddenly, there was a fluctuation in Sophia's words: "Everyone, I want to warn you. Having a priest is not a reason for you to take the risk. In the space of a few days, three people, including my father's personal attendant, have returned to the arms of the gods forever. If you can, please be careful to keep yourself safe when facing the enemy, my sister is still a low-ranking priest......"

"Rest assured, we'll take care of ourselves. Even if a pastor is slashed by a sword, the pain will not go away. We're not masochists. Noodle walked to the front and said as a matter of course.

Barrett, on the other hand, was now captivated by some of the messages in Sophia's words. He was quietly concentrating on the surface, and finally caught the flash of aura: '. Most of the time, he should be inseparable, and such personnel are not the enemy's priority targets. Then his basic safety factor should be higher than that of ordinary family members. Such a character who is not easily threatened died first, and Miss Sainoah's words did not mention any Savior sacrifice or anything like that. I seem to have something happening! ’

The hollow-shaped corridor on the second floor wasn't very long, and before she had taken a few steps, Sophia stopped and pulled out a bunch of keys from her belt. Twisting the lock and pushing the door in, she familiarly waved her hand to drive away the dust.

"Ahem! Cough! Arrived at a few people! This is your makeshift shelter here, and although some of the dust has not had time to be cleaned, the bedding has been torn down into bandages and cotton wool. But for now, I can only ask for your forgiveness. It's a pity that the cold tone still doesn't make any apologies at this time. Fortunately, players who know the reason are not going to get angry with an aboriginal in this regard.

Barrett, who walked into the house and patted the bedboard, smiled: "It's okay, this is already much better than camping in the wilderness." We had our own sleeping bags and blankets. ”

Sophia nodded coldly: "Then if there is nothing to do." I'll leave first. Unless there are special circumstances, please stay in the house as much as possible. I don't want you and the adventurers who came before to get acquainted with each other. As for dinner, I'll arrange for someone to bring it over when the sun goes down! ”

"Don't worry! We know what we have to do in the current situation. Rielly said as she reached for Barrett's backpack, which housed a lot of the group's bulky items in the big bag behind Barrett.

That's the sadness of being a power character. When the rest of the teammates don't look like people who can bear heavy loads, the 'big sniper' has to help his companions share a little more.

As soon as Sophia left, Rielly closed the door. Barrett was then surrounded by three companions.

The noodles trim their nails with a file that they didn't know where they came from. While half-jokingly said, "It's three sessions now!" Barrett, tell us everything you know about the Black Dragon's treasure. Otherwise, you'll understand what halfling anger is. ”

"That's right! That's right! Lalu also scratched his paws and coaxed aside.

"Do you really want to know about the Black Dragon Treasure?" Barrett touched his chin and looked playfully at the companions in front of him.

"Barrett, don't doubt us. While many players enter the game without any scruples, we don't set out on that path. However, we still have a lot of curiosity about the various hidden information in the game. Puzzle solving is one of the fun parts of the game! Rielly smiled, but it made Barrett sweat coldly, 'Can you let go of the hand on the whip, it makes your words very unconvincing!'

Barrett, who had retreated into a corner under the pressure of his teammates, took a deep breath: "There is no treasure. ”

"No treasure?" As soon as Rielly's hand was forced, the whip hit the wall directly, stirring up a puff of dust.

"No treasure! It hurts" The filer of the noodle accidentally left a wound on his ring finger.

"There is no treasure!" Hearing this, Lalu's ears drooped.

Rielly, who had withdrawn the whip, stared at Barrett with wide eyes. At the same time, he picked Barrett's chin with his slender fingers: "Please tell you the truth Barrett, my mother and I are here to enjoy the game, please don't test my patience." What happens if you spoil my spirit, my family knows best. ”

Hearing this, Lalu seemed to remember some bad memories, and the whole person suddenly shuddered.

"It's really gone. At least there is no treasure of the black dragon anymore. Barrett's words almost provoked a certain lady. Out of self-preservation, he hurriedly reached out and pressed the other party's shoulder: "Don't get excited, this story is actually quite long, a few people sit down and let me talk slowly......"

, that is, 6o years ago, from the Marquis of Malkin, the Earl of Boram also participated in a dragon slaying battle to exterminate the black dragon of the wetlands.

However, apart from the participants, not much is known about this dragon slaying battle. The two families who succeeded did not carry out such propaganda before or after the war. Because the location of the dragon slay was in the wetland swamp in the territory of the northern city-state, this kind of cross-border action was of course secretly carried out in order not to cause any diplomatic disputes.

And several cities in the northern city-states. The trade road has been harassed by this black dragon for a long time, and it seems that he is happy to see his disappearance -- the premise is naturally not to let the matter of "cross-border law enforcement" become known to everyone, so that they cannot get off the stage.

"You mean that the rumored black dragon treasure refers to the treasure of the black dragon that was exterminated." Rielie scraped Barrett's chin with her own nails.

The tickling sensation in his jaw made Barrett feel a little uncomfortable. He turned his head to the side and said, "That's how it should be!" There are not many black dragons near the Principality of Norhan. It's really unlikely that there is another black dragon treasure. If my guess is correct, the exact location of the black dragon's lair should be provided by the Sainoa family. Of course, most of them also enriched some treasure from that operation. But the big one is probably in the treasure trove of the two lords! ”

"Go! It's boring. When will you be able to have an exciting treasure hunt! Rielly, who had spared Barrett, grabbed Lalu and rubbed his ears as if she was venting something.

"It's easy to fool people with this kind of half-truth, but those businessmen shouldn't be so easy to deceiver." Ignoring the dust, he scratched the back of his head at the noodles sitting on the bed, "In other words, their purpose is probably a black dragon treasure that has been assigned to the Sainoa family." Things seem to be getting more and more fun in this way. (Unfinished pending renewals of recommended votes and monthly passes.) )
