"Let me guess for myself?" Barrett stretched out his finger and scratched his cheek, "This, I really have to think about it!" There's so much going through during this time, it's time to calm down. ”

"Oh! In that case, Barrett, think about it! There's still a lot of time to do it, anyway. Count Boreham, who had said this, continued to look out the window, as if inspecting the city before him.

How long should I choose?' I hope I won't see any flaws in the Earl of Boreham...... Barrett, who looked down in thought, muttered to himself. Apparently he didn't expect the Earl of Boreham to play this game with him.

After a quarter of an hour or so, Barrett finally put down the palm that was touching his chin, raised his head and spoke again: "Although those corpses do have tattoos of the 'Scarlet Hand' on them, this kind of characteristic that is fairly easy to disguise is not a good evidence. What's more, I don't believe that a bereaved dog like the Scarlet Hand can still make his own members willingly die for him. ”

"Was it the performance of those attackers that led you to such a conclusion, Barrett?" At this time, the Earl of Boreham finally let go of the palm that had been pressed on the windowsill, and then turned around: "But unfortunately, you guessed wrong this time. The guys who attacked this time were really members of the Scarlet Hand. ”

"If that's the case, it seems that I really underestimated the high-level of the 'Scarlet Hand' before." Barrett's face changed slightly, "It's possible to be in such a bad situation." Raise your own cohesion to this level. That's not a simple group of characters. ”

Replenishment is done so. Another question arose in Barrett's mind: 'Since you have such a mind.' Why did you participate in that plane invasion before? Could it be that their brains are suddenly broken, thinking that they can really access the power of the lower plane to run rampant in the main plane? Could it be that these guys were collectively affected by the 'retarded' technique before? Still being ...... by lust |

Seeing Barrett's expression, the Earl of Boreham was obviously very satisfied with the decision he had just made. It's just that he doesn't seem to be ready to let Barrett dwell on this matter for too long: "Barrett, if you have such thoughts. If the guys at the Scarlet Hand had such abilities, they wouldn't be that sort of underworld organization long ago. In the face of adversity, the leader who does not let people be discouraged, but twists the organization into a rope, at least in this field, he can be called a rare figure in a century. Just for those few talents, the kingdom has already handed them an olive branch. Where is the need to continue to live that dark life. ”

After hearing Earl Boreham's explanation, Barrett realized that he had just gone wrong. If the higher-ups of the 'Scarlet Hand' had such abilities. It will never be where we are today. Immediately, a flash of inspiration flashed in his head: "Could it be that some external force intervened?" ”

"That's right! Judging from the information obtained from the mouths of the dead, the guys of the 'Scarlet Hand' have been co-opted by another organization that is much more powerful than them. The Earl of Boreham added as Barrett spoke.

Barrett's eyelids jumped: "Co-opted? I didn't expect these plague-like guys to really dare to touch their hands. I'm not afraid that the mutton won't be eaten, and I'll be empty, but it seems that the guy who co-opted them is probably also using them as cannon fodder! Maybe by the way, we can also confuse our eyes. By the way, Lord Earl, do you now know who is behind these attackers? ”

"What a pity! When these corpses were originally alive, they didn't have a high status in the 'Scarlet Hand'. So although I know that the 'Scarlet Hand' has now been co-opted by another organization for two days. But it is not known who exactly co-opted them. Count Boreham said and shook his head, "But in the Kingdom of Norhan, he is plotting against our Bolim family. It's just those few people. We have been prepared for this for a long time. ”

"Lord Count, what you just said is only the enemy in the kingdom of Norhan!" Barrett frowned and touched his chin: "But what if this time it is those enemies outside the kingdom who are involved?" ”

"If it's outside the kingdom. It's not easy for them to reach out to us. When the time comes, just chop it off. Earl Boreham was arrogant just now, but then he frowned and smiled bitterly: "On the contrary, these guys in the country can't deal with it so directly." That's why it's a headache! ”

"Looks like you're ready to be different, sir!" Barrett slapped himself vaguely, "But if it's really a domestic force, are they still making trouble in the territory?" Won't we fight back in the Boreham Collar? ”

"How do you know we in Boreham haven't given those guys a look behind the characters." Speaking of this, the Earl of Boreham glared at Barrett fiercely, and scolded in a fierce voice: "You kid doesn't want to join in that kind of action, do you!" If that's the case, don't even think about it, the action in the shadows is for you. Obediently give me to walk on the right path, and the family will have a place where you can be used in the future. ”

"My lord, that's all I said. I don't have any intention of going into the shadows. While saying this, Barrett also took the opportunity to show his loyalty: "Of course, if the family has been sent in this regard, it is incumbent on me below. ”

"If only you could think so. It is not without the rebellious young man with outstanding talent in the family who has to step on the rugged and gloomy thorn bush without leaving the good sunshine. The Earl of Boreham couldn't help but complain, "Their actions not only affect their own future, but also cause a lot of damage to the family." Barrett, you must remember not to go astray like them. Things that are not mainstream though sometimes seem appealing. But the reason why they do not become mainstream is often because they have major flaws that cannot be avoided. ”

In the face of such a straightforward admonition from the Earl of Boreham. Barrett nodded yes. There is simply no other suitable response. And the Earl of Boreham also seems to have taken on a role, constantly telling Barrett about the fallen 'former geniuses' in the family. Barrett kept complaining in his heart: 'Lord Earl, you should go home and talk to your lord!' What the hell is it to get me here? It's not because Lord Lord is in a rebellious period that you ......

Not to mention how Barrett arranged this top leader of the Boreham Collar in his heart. After a mouth-dry admonition, the Earl of Boreham finally stopped, and took the teacup on the table and moistened his throat.

Barrett, who was finally able to clear his ears, immediately spoke: "Lord Earl! Is there anything else we need to do next? If not, I can retire for a while. ”

"What's next?" Earl Boreham, who heard Barrett's words, touched his chin. "I think you'd better stop mixing it! The next actions of the family are not suitable for you to participate in. That's the end of this matter for now! ”

With Count Boreham's words, the system prompt began to ring in Barrett's ears: "The Bloodstained Grey Flower Squad accepts the small regional story mission: Shadows under Order to complete...... All players gain 500 XP...... Earn 200 House Boreham Fame...... Gain 50 reputation for the Lord of Notary and Order Church...... Gain 50 reputation for the Church of the Sun God...... Earn ......"

"Players receive 350 Family Contribution ......" is an additional bonus for Barrett. Perhaps because the organization of the 'Scarlet Hand' is wanted by the mainland, the blood-stained gray flowers have also gained the prestige of many good factions of the church. With these rewards given by the system alone, players didn't lose money this time.

Barrett, who pretended to be calm on his face, immediately bent down and saluted: "If there is nothing to do, then I will retire first." ”

"Wait! This is your little mercenary group's reward this time, don't let them think that our Boreham family is letting people do day jobs. However, the part that belongs to you, I have taken it upon myself to exchange it for your family contribution. I don't think you mind! The Earl of Boreham, who had said this, drew a gold coin from his pocket. Then he threw the card at Barrett.

The gold coupon issued by the 'Church of the Goddess of Fortune and Commerce', which was silent, lost its strength to move forward when it reached Barrett's side. I saw that it just fell into Barrett's hands. Barrett, who took the gold ticket, looked at the mark on it, and the words representing 3,000 gold coins were printed on the gold ticket.

This special 'print' will be redeemed to make up for the player's upfront investment in this operation. And that's after deducting Barrett's own pay. Plus the loot and the 'Dead Talk' scrolls that were bought but not used. This operation is quite profitable even in terms of money. If you also take into account that Boreham Collar offers Mara. Lady Edami's excellent foreign aid and the aftermath army. I have to say about the generosity of the Boreham family. It's really a golden sign on the Western Continent!

Barrett, who held the gold voucher and stored it close to him, showed a satisfied smile that was not fake: "Lord Earl, you have thought so well, what I am worried about now is the lack of family contribution. Rather, it's the yellow and white things. It's relatively simple to make. ”

"I said since you want more family contributions. So I have a task in my hand that no one has accepted for the time being, Barrett, are you going to take your teammates to give it a try? The Earl of Boreham, who said this, felt like a strange uncle who coaxed children with lollipops.

Hearing this, Barrett suddenly hesitated: "If it were just me, I would naturally obey your arrangement unconditionally, Lord Earl. But now my companions have only just gone through that series of struggles and pursuits. Now is the time to recuperate. If your mission is too hasty, I think it's safer to find someone else. ”

As the leader of the mercenary group, Barrett naturally has the highest authority in the team when it comes to taking on tasks. And the companions also believed that Barrett would not fool them with such a thing. However, it is precisely because of the trust of his teammates that Barrett feels that he should think more about his teammates. Players who have just experienced that protracted battle need nothing more than a good rest now. At least for the last two or three days, Barrett wasn't prepared to let the players take on any more tasks.

"It's right to think about your teammates. But don't forget, with so many things to tackle in the Bolim family, it's impossible to find a job that suits you. The Earl of Boreham pointed at Barrett and scolded with a smile.

"Looks like you're prepared, Lord Earl!" Barrett deliberately made a look of abrupt realization.

The Earl of Boreham said as he threw a roll of parchment to Barrett from his desk: "I don't need to prepare for this, there are naturally people in the family who are in charge of this." See for yourself what is suitable! ”

As a result, Barrett, who was in the parchment, immediately read the words on the machine, and at the same time, Barrett also understood that he was free to choose from many family tasks today, which was also a further deepening of the Earl of Boreham's trust in himself. You must know that although the tasks on this parchment scroll are not classified by each one. However, if all the above mission arrangements are leaked, it will not be difficult for outsiders to guess the movements of the Boreham family during this period through these tasks.

If Barrett was really a spy bought by hostile forces, today's gains alone could have caused incalculable damage to the Boreham family. Even if it is well planned, it can make the Bolim family suffer losses while disguising everything as an accident.

After looking at it for a while, Barrett finally made a decision: "Lord Earl, I choose the fifth mission and join the family's escort team. ”

"Are you going to the royal capital? Looks like you're going to take those guys to see the world! Count Boram smiled and nodded, "But you have to remember that the royal capital is not the same as the Western capital you have been to before. There are quite a few people engraved there, enemies of our Boram family. So your last name may not just be a help, but a nuisance. (To be continued......)
