Arrow was slightly stunned, then turned around and smiled, "Do you know Viscount Norris?" ”

Viscount Ruichi snorted: "I can't talk about acquaintance, it's just that I've met a few times and talked a few times." Hey, I'm a viscount anyway, I'm a nobleman! It's good to know a little nobleman very ordinary! ”

Arrow immediately put on a smiling face, nodded and said, "Of course! I knew that Viscount Ruichi was a very remarkable man. So handsome, chic and suave, it's no wonder that so many girls like you~~~! ”

Hearing these flattering words, Viscount Ruichi looked warm and very comfortable, he nodded vigorously and said with a smile: "Hahaha! I know that you know you very well and can see the good things about me! Speaking of which, you are also the first person among men to praise me like this~~~ Hahaha! ”

Arrow smiled, noncommittal.

After the Viscount of Ruichi was happy, Arrow continued to ask, "Then may I ask, what kind of person is that Viscount Norris?" Did you know? ”

Viscount Ruichi pursed his lips and thought for a moment, then said, "On the surface...... This is a person who seems to be very polite. He also treats people very well, and although he is a nobleman, compared to other nobles with real power and territory, I heard that not many people died at his hands. It should be a character who is not very interested in killing. ”

"Other than that...... Although he was from a noble background, the title was just a false name, and the family had no territory. After that, he joined the army and went to the battlefield, that is, the first border war between the Hunter Empire and our country more than ten years ago. It is said that it was in that war that he made a meritorious contribution to the canonization of the territory. ”

Retired soldiers, people who endure and do not let their emotions vent everywhere. Being able to perform military exploits in war proves that there is also courage and wisdom...... Looks like a really tough guy to deal with.

After thinking about it, Arrow continued to smile and ask, "Is there anything else?" ”

"Others? Well...... Well......" Viscount Ruichi thought for a moment, and suddenly said happily as if he remembered something, "I heard that after joining the army, he studied under a very famous nobleman, became his student, and learned military advisory, politics, economics, and so on. It's one of the outstanding students who belong to that great noble gate! Which great nobleman is it...... Well...... Can't remember. ”

Hearing this, Arrow felt a chill down his spine.

Hehe, I just hope I don't fall into that infinite loop mode where one is defeated and another one pops up later, right? That's exhausting.

But it's too early to think so, and what you really need to think about now is whether you can pass this hurdle in front of you.

Minutes and seconds passed.

After the townspeople had dispersed, Arrow was the only one who continued to stand at the south exit, looking out at the castle that had always stood in the sunset.

The white-painted walls and the fire-burned walls create a very staggered visual appearance in the sunlight, just like the name of the castle - Granite Castle, Swan Castle. People don't know what to think of it, and don't know that it has now become truly holy? Still shrouded in darkness that I couldn't look at.

As the sun slowly descended on the other side of the mountain, Arrow's mood became more and more nervous.

He sat on a mound beside the exit, his hands folded, almost counting his own pounding heartbeat to survive the long time.

Not coming back for so long is not a good thing.

Maybe the members of the honey pot were well-trained and observed before attacking?

God knows how many methods can be used to test the weaknesses and bottom line of that monster when there are abundant resources, perfect logistics, perfect equipment and abundant props.

What's more, not long ago, his Mermaid Song had explored that basement, and at the last critical moment, Uncle Saint Cake had used a light magic that seemed to be very powerful, although he didn't quite understand the effect.

If this light magic has weakened this monster very well, and now those people in the honey pot are making the final harvest, then have they made the biggest mistake of their lives?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his thoughts were a little unstable, and his emotions were a little abnormal.

Despite the bad thoughts, he began to pray that Uncle Saint Cake's power at the last moment of his life would not be able to harm the monster.

Alas...... When I was in school, the professor once said that the harvesting of capital will make capitalists completely disregard fairness and justice, and even the kindest person will become a monster licking blood after becoming the operator of capital.

Once, Iero only verbally agreed with these theories in the test papers and graduation defense, but in his heart he still felt that no matter how powerful money was, it was impossible to turn the kindest person into a demon, right?

But now, when he began to find himself sincerely wishing that the adventurers with whom he had no grudge against him would be killed and wounded, and that they would return from defeat......

He believed.

"Brother President, aren't you going back?"

As the sun went down, the lights in the town slowly lit up. Coco walked over with a plate of bread and frowned after glancing at the untouched food box at Arrow's feet.

"Even if you don't go back and don't eat lunch, can you worry so much about those people from other guilds?"

Coco put the plate in his hand on the mound on the side, walked up to Arrow with some complaints, and took his hand: "Brother Arrow, I know you are kind, but it's not a way to worry about those people all the time?" Whether they can solve it or not, it's out of our control. ”

Seeing this little girl comforting herself like this, Arrow couldn't help but exhale and said with a smile, "I know, I'm just worried...... You think, Uncle Saint Cake spent so much effort to get us out, and I'm really worried about the lives of those adventurers...... Although they didn't come to buy information about this monster from us, for the sake of Pelican Town's safety, I still hope to cooperate with them. ”

Coco grinned and said, "I knew that the president's brother had the best heart!" But you're going to just wait? Let's go back. ”

Arrow glanced over to Swan Castle again, but there was still no movement. It was already getting dark, and the black rumbling castle was about to be hidden in the night.

After thinking about it, he began to feel that it was indeed a little stupid for him to wait like this, after all, it was really useless......

"Okay!"

Thinking so, Arrow stood up from the mound, stretched, and rubbed his slightly stiff shoulders. But just as he turned around and was about to leave, the answer he had been waiting for all day appeared at this time.

Some people.

Some of them, who looked very embarrassed, crawling and crawling, as if they were being chased by something, and with a panicked posture, ran out of the swan castle.

Originally, there were ten of them inside, but now there were only eight figures running towards the town in the distance.

As they got closer, Arro became more and more able to read the expressions on their faces.

Whether it was the strongest warrior, or the most devout priest of the light, even the assassin who should know the most cunning and shady, none of the people in this team could maintain a normal expression at the moment.

When they saw the light on this side of the town, it was as if they felt unprecedented hope from the deepest despair!

When rushing into the confines of Pelican Town, Arrow clearly felt a very relieved and relaxed mood from their faces.

It was also when these discarded and embarrassed adventurers ran into Pelican Town with tears in their eyes and terrified expressions......

"Oh my God, they went ten people, and only eight came back! It's a shame......"

Verbally, Arrow showed great empathy.

But secretly, his heart, which had been clutching all day, was finally let go.

- March 17, 1302, food expenses: -2 silver, 3 copper and 1 iron, money laundering income: 2 gold, account balance: 479 gold, 5 silver, 2 copper and 7 iron (money laundering: -4 gold, stolen money balance: 30 gold, 7 silver and 7 copper) -

Judging by the results, is anything good happening?

Well, if there's one thing that can be found to be the only thing that can be happy in this terrible situation, it is to see that the Honey Pot Guild has not moved for three days in a row after that setback, this should be the best news in this terrible situation.

Thinking of this, the troubles caused by the constant whiteboard on the account books these days have finally eased a little.

Arrow let out a long breath and stood in front of the bulletin board, looking at the page that was cleaner than his face.

Although the current environment has eased slightly, the general direction has not changed, and everything has not changed qualitatively. If you want to make money, you still have to think more carefully about what you should do now......

Turning his head and looking at the now empty guild, Arrow remembered that the members had gone outside to practice one by one. They don't have time to work, but they have a lot more time to exercise. Especially after the death of the Holy Bread, each of the members was riveted, and although they didn't say anything explicitly, Arrow knew what was going on in their hearts.

Swan Castle, the demon in the basement.

I guess they all have a kind of hope in their hearts, hoping that one day they will become strong enough to return to the castle that devoured their teammates and avenge Uncle Saint Cake.
