Chapter Ninety-Five: An Unexpected Invitation
Even for an ordinary person, it would be unwilling to suddenly lower his status to a level overnight and become a vassal of others, let alone a person from a dark mercenary, if he could, these dark mercenaries would not mind using their fists and knives to teach each other a lesson, so that the other party could understand what the correct 'master-servant' relationship was.
However, when such a situation is based on absolute strength, the situation will change accordingly, especially when they meet a smart person, they will naturally understand what they should do - Rod. The sand fox is a smart person, and the shadow is also a smart person; Therefore, after knowing Ye Qi's true identity, the two of them straightened their positions very simply; For an existence that can decide their life and death at will, unless they really want to die, anyone will know what to do.
And whether it's Rhodes. The sand fox is still a shadow, and they definitely don't want to die - the former According to himself, in addition to Powell, who impersonated the sand fox, there were two other people among the people who killed his parents and those elders, and he would never be able to die without killing these two people.
As for the latter?
The shadow of the killer's background does not have the so-called 'killer tradition' - according to the shadow himself, the 'killer tradition' of treating death as home is just the brainwashing of the top of the killer organization for the bottom, and he will not become the product of such brainwashing and education; although he is a killer, he definitely wants to be a long-lived killer; and in fact, it proves that the performance of cooperation from the beginning of the shadow meeting Ye Qi is enough to prove that the other party is indeed sitting like this.
Light-handed, but very quickly moved a chair behind Ye Qi. The shadow once again blended into the shadows - [Blind Fight Perception]. Belongs to the fluctuations of shadows. quickly approached the door of the room; Although within the scope of Ye Qi's [Blind Fighting Perception], there was no need to make such a move, it did not mean that Ye Qi would stop the shadow's actions.
Since you have become a servant, you must have the consciousness of a servant - when to do what and how to do it, which is naturally the embodiment of the concrete; And whether it's Rhodes. Sand foxes are still shadows, and as smart people, they will naturally do such things to the fullest.
"The Devaro family is even more rotten than Powell expected, and not just the rot of the upper echelons of the interior. This level of decay has spread to the next generation of heirs! "Rhodes. After thinking about it carefully, Shahu began to think about Ye Qi and said, "My lord, I think our plan can speed up the progress, and in two years, it should be about the same!" ”
"Since it has been handed over to you, then everything is up to you!" Nodding, Ye Qi handed the note with a certain address written on it to the other party, and said, "This is the address of my other servant, if you encounter a shortage of manpower or insufficient strength." You can contact it! ”
It?!
Aren't they humans?!
Rod. The sand fox apparently noticed the appellation, though. The next moment he returned to normal, took the note with a respectful face, carefully read the address on it several times, and made sure that it was completely memorized in his mind, and then a wisp of fire erupted from his finger, and the whole note was ignited. Sand Fox's innate ability is not flame, and he doesn't even have any connection to flames, but studying his parents' wizard diaries since he was a child is enough for him to have a considerable understanding of wizards' spells; At the very least, with a good foundation in alchemy and potions, some small tricks could not be difficult for this young man.
And looking at Rod. Shahu's move, Ye Qi nodded secretly, such caution and caution is the most important point that he thinks that taking the other party as a servant may get a considerable amount of Kimpton in the future - a cautious and careful servant, even if the strength is weak; It is always better than a strong, but reckless 'friend', especially if the former is built on considerable loyalty.
"My lord, someone's coming!"
The sound of shadows came from the shadows.
"I know it!"
Ye Qi, who had found out everything through [Blind Fight Perception], nodded, and said in the end: "If you encounter any unexpected conflict with our plan, remember to notify me through the contract!" ”
"Yes, sir!"
Rod. Sand Fox and Shadow immediately replied respectfully—for that contract, even the sorcery of Rhodes. Shahu didn't figure out what kind of foundation or principle it was built on, but the magic of that contract was clearly displayed in front of the two of them; Especially when they recalled that when they faced that contract, the aura of being inoffensive, unable to look at it directly, and wanting to worship with all their hearts surged from above, and the two of them were even more afraid of Ye Qi who took out this contract.
At the very least, from the perspective of the two of them at this moment, Ye Qi, who can come up with such a contract, is an unsurpassable existence that is so powerful that he has a pair of wizards as his parents. The sand fox even guessed the existence of a clue; However, as a smart man, Rod . But the sand fox won't pick and choose at all; After all, some things are much better to rot in the stomach than to say them.
When the two raised their heads again, Ye Qi, who was sitting in the chair, had already disappeared; And Rhodes. Sand Fox and Shadow were not surprised by this, that day Powell, a solar-level existence, was as weak as a child in the hands of the other party, which had already made the two of them understand how big the gap in strength between them and Ye Qi was; It is normal to not be able to perceive, and vice versa is strange and unsettling.
Knock knock knock......
"Young Master Valan, are you there?"
When there was a knock on the door, the whole room was back to the scene before Ye Qi appeared; With Rhodes. Shahu nodded, and the shadow opened the door calmly and forcefully - a fat businessman appeared at the door, with a humble smile, the businessman who had failed in the inner market to compete for the 'Mind Flayer Brain Marrow', and said apologetically: "Sorry to disturb your meal!" ”
"Mr. Kev, please come in; If you have breakfast with friends. It is pleasant for the body and mind; Just wish you hadn't eaten yet? "Rod who completely changed his identity. Corsac fox. politely and intimately said to the fat businessman in front of him.
"Of course not. Would love to have breakfast with you! ”
The fat businessman immediately walked to the table. Sand Fox gestured and thanked Shadow for another bacon roast that he brought out later, this one was originally Rhodes. What Sandfox had prepared for the representative of his kindred, he thought it was going to be wasted; Now, though, it's time to put things to good use.
"I don't know what you mentioned yesterday......"
Although Zhilu Dao was eating and talking, it was very impolite to a person from a family like the other party, but he hadn't slept all night since he got the news. The fat businessman who has been entangled until now can't help it.
"Of course it's true, but how about we talk after breakfast?"
"No problem, no problem! Everything is up to Master Valan! ”
Looking at Rod who frowned slightly. Sand Fox, the fat businessman immediately nodded in reply.
The first step of the plan is success!
And while the fat businessman bowed his head and ate those bacon roasts, Rhodes. The sand fox and the shadow glanced at each other without a trace, and showed a smile that only the other could understand.
……
After returning to the side hall of the Nosd family, the remaining week after planning is whether to return to the Tanah Lot Temple at the bottom of the lake to continue cultivating, or to rush to Ye Qi in Dude in advance. Before the final decision was made, the original train of thought was interrupted by a message brought by Jacob; Ye Qi turned his head. Looking at Jacob in surprise, he asked—
"Master Stendon looking for me?"
"Well, that's what Old Man Fletcher said after passing it on!"
Jacob nodded and replied truthfully; Then, looking at Ye Qi's frowning and thinking appearance, he couldn't help but pat Ye Qi on the shoulder: "Don't worry, Master Stendon is a real master, and he won't have any ghost thoughts; At most, that's because of the problem with those potions of powerful healing! ”
"I'm worried about the powerful healing potions! After all, I don't have much! ”
Ye Qi looked at Jacob with a wry smile, spreading his hands and looking helpless.
"Say this to others, and they believe it absolutely; Tell me, I don't believe anything! ”
When Jacob saw Ye Qi's pretended helpless appearance, he immediately pursed the corners of his lips.
"Although it is a little more than the outside world knows, it is not too much; Moreover, the value of these powerful healing potions, Uncle Jacob, you don't know the way, do you? ”
"Of course I know! However, for us witchers, it is difficult to have a status corresponding to its value! After all, pulling out the best potions among us is no more than the disciple of a certain master! Speaking of this, Jacob paused deliberately, and then looked at Ye Qi again: "Unless you can find a Potions Master for me!" ”
"Potions Master? Where can I find you? ”
Ye Qi looked at his elder with a wry smile again
"Others certainly can't, but you don't!"
Jacob said it very simply, clearly with confidence.
"I don't know where your confidence in me comes from!"
Ye Qi, who was smiling bitterly, changed the topic at the next moment, and he said, "Uncle Jacob, I will probably choose to disappear for about a week after that, and then go to Dude!" ”
"Dude? Are you going to participate in the secret gatherings of the dark mercenary organizations such as Thoughts of Destruction and Hand of the Abyss? ”
Jacob, who heard this sensitive word, immediately reacted - although the secret gathering of this dark mercenary organization was very hidden at the beginning, but as time passed, more and more people participated in it, and the channel of the witcher naturally did not know nothing, especially after the Supreme Government wanted to encircle and suppress the dark mercenaries who participated in the Wizard Secret City this time, this news became more and more people's attention.
After all, in the eyes of many people, the Supreme Government, which has always kept a low profile in the Dark World, would not have done such a thing, but now it has happened, undoubtedly because something has happened that the Supreme Government cannot tolerate - and coincidentally, the secret meeting of the Dark Mercenary Organization was held in Dude, the capital of the Supreme Government, which does not give people a hint of association.
"Hmm!"
For Jacob, Ye Qi naturally didn't have anything to hide, and nodded straight.
"It just ends up in Wizard's Secret City. A lot of people's eyes are on there; After all. For the Wizard Secret City, which is bound by the Final Armistice. It's a no-holds-barred paradise! As he spoke, Jacob frowned - although he was a witcher, not a member of the supreme government, he did not want a large-scale riot that might occur; After all, no one can guarantee that such a riot will not upset the balance of the entire Lorante.
"Isn't the age of peace bad? There are always some people who want to come out and find trouble! ”
Eventually, the treasure hunter sighed.
"Because. They are always so greedy and self-righteous! Think you're in control and be the winner! Ye Qi stood up with a chuckle, walked out as he spoke, and said goodbye to Jacob: "I'm going to Master Stendon, and I need to change back into my own attire; Well, Uncle Jacob, Herman and Tony will be left to you to explain, and there will be a meeting later! ”
"Have a nice trip!"
Jacob sat in his chair and waved.
……
When Yetch returned to the Nosd manor again. It was already after lunch—although he had spent the next week just going to the Tanah Lot Temple at the bottom of the lake outside Randingburg to continue his cultivation. But as for his whereabouts, he will naturally go to inform his friends; And the ensuing lunch, under the gaze of his female disciple, obviously could not be shirked.
So, when I came back, it was already after lunch.
And after the whole wizard secret city experienced lunch and a short break, it fell into the excitement again - after the culprit of the previous robbery was caught, there was no pressure in his heart, and some merchants who had been preparing for a long time began to join in, and this situation naturally made the wizard secret city lively again; Moreover, some magic items that have reached the boutique level have also begun to appear in this ordinary secret market, and this has increasingly stimulated people's desire to find suitable items in the wizard secret market.
In this regard, Ye Qi naturally understood what was going on - after the old man Fletcher reached some private agreements with Master Stendo, he generously opened the treasury of the Nosd family, took out some things, and 'put them' into the wizarding secret market.
Of course, with Ye Qi's understanding of this old man Fletcher, this old man will definitely not suffer, and he must have obtained greater benefits to do so—as for what kind of benefits, as long as you think about the magic materials he sold to the other party before, everything will be self-evident!
"Here!"
Before Ye Qi could reach the hall, Old Man Fletcher's voice came from the side; Then, he walked straight to the back of the Nosrid family manor, which was a huge complex of buildings connected to the suburban forest, and the purpose of the tall and heavy wall-like existence was naturally very clear: to defend against foreign enemies.
Before entering the age of freedom, there were quite a lot of bandits in any era, and most of the time, when the number of these bandits reached a considerable level, there would be a 'banditry' - even in the age of the Holy See's self-proclaimed charism, large 'banditry' broke out three times, the largest of which plunged about half of the entire Lorante into war and chaos; And in such a 'bandit', the Nosd family was able to survive the disaster, naturally having its own means.
In addition to its own strength, the solidity of the home is also essential.
The location of this conversation, Mr. Fletcher chose a place that should have been the original barracks, but compared to the previous atmosphere of slaughter everywhere, this barracks has now become a place that people will not want to return to—all kinds of flowers bloom in it, and through the direct sunlight, it looks more and more charming.
And next to these purple and red flowers, a small round coffee table is placed there, and a pot of boiling fruit tea on it is exuding a unique fragrance, mixed with these flowers, it is even more involuntary yearning -
"Leaf!"
Master Standon greeted Ye Qi cordially.
"Compared to the side hall, this place is more comfortable!"
Ye Qi glanced around, sat down in the chair he had prepared for himself, and said with a smile.
"This is the place we old guys like, what are you doing as a young man? Or are you ready to retire early? Old man Fletcher looked at Ye Qi jokingly and said, "However, it doesn't matter if you want to retire, after helping my old friend, it's not too late to retire!" ”
"Master Stendon, what the hell is going on?"
Ye Qi didn't care at all about Old Man Fletcher's jokes, turned his head directly, and asked the wizard master in front of him.
"We're ready to explore the unexplored areas of the Thousand Ponds once again, and we hope you'll join us!"
The old wizard didn't have any concealment, and sent an invitation to Ye Qi very directly - although he had only met once, but for what kind of person Ye Qi was, with his rich experience, the old wizard naturally saw it clearly; He knows very well that people like Ye Qi must not go around in circles, otherwise it will only be himself who suffers.
"When?"
Ye Qi was slightly stunned, and then immediately asked.
