Chapter 27: The Jewel of Remnant Magical Power: Part I

As he had judged, before the Contractors followed Master Tabesa to the camp for a lunch break, and the golems who could carry out simple orders made their way to the ruined noble mansion, the "Gray Wolf" was given a swaggering way in.

After the escape, he lurked on a high point where he could observe the mansion of the nobles, and while listening to the long poems sung by the High Elves on the bell tower, he was really a strange man, strange elves, and with a little mixed feelings, he also made sure that the three adventurers who had a very good understanding did not search Hausen's body.

When the three of them left, the figure of the "gray wolf" slowly emerged next to Hausen's corpse.

What's the use of being able to fight? The important thing for a good Assassin is to be stealthy and agile!

He pursed his lips in contempt, and spat on Hausen's dead face.

As expected, after a simple search of Hausen's pockets, he found his target. Taking out the old and somewhat special wooden box, the "gray wolf" smiled smugly, lowered his head and opened the lid curiously...... Immediately, his face turned iron-blue.

The box was empty.

The thing that was originally contained inside, the one with a beautiful hazy green sheen, the valuable item that had made the elders issue a high reward, was gone.

But the three adventurers had no idea of beating the dead hausen's belongings at all, and the "gray wolf" could swear to the sky, which he had clearly seen with his own eyes!

Then the conclusion is obvious. Even though Hausen had the upper hand, he still kept a hand on him, and turned around and hid the contents of the box elsewhere - perhaps with the idea of handing over the box first to prove his worth, and then selling the contents for a good price. If it weren't for the inopportune arrival of the Constructed Golem, he would have even wanted to vent his anger on the other party, even if it was just a corpse that he had just laughed at and proved the failure of his former owner.

He was furious at the disappearance, or rather the regain of an unknown valuable. Not only the careful guidance of the Barov tutor, but also the death of the fool Hausen obviously provided him with just the right space to go further in terms of his status and prospects in the organization. The "Gray Wolf" could even have imagined howson's death causing the senators' attention, if only partially, to turn their attention to himself.

Now, however, on the other hand, Hausen, who had obtained this precious thing at first, had always been quite trusted by the patriarchs, so he had the qualifications to be pampered and proud, but he could not do it; In addition, if he had done this, the thing would have already changed hands, and now after such twists and turns, if he handed it in with the box and the gems, it would obviously still be greatly appreciated, and there was also a "more", but if his immediate boss took the box with great relief, and then gladly opened it, and saw only the lining velvet in it, except for the lining velvet...... That's a tragedy, no matter when the time comes to report to the boss that "in fact, only the box was found" or "the antiques inside were lost by the unlucky guy who hung up", waiting for him is a reprimand with the theme of "unfavorable", "incompetent and stupid", "pigs are smarter than you", and there is a great possibility that the senior management misunderstands that he discovered the hidden secrets of antiques and swallowed them privately! Once such a prejudice takes root in the hearts of the higher-ups, he has no doubt that what he will face next is to kill mistakes and not let go!

Wealth is moving! - What's more, although he doesn't know the details, he is already keenly aware that it must be a secret that is 10,000 times more exciting than wealth!

********

"So that's it,"

Stunned, he said, waving his arm in a large circle and making an exaggerated spread: "What the hell are these syndicates thinking?" What the hell ......."

Jin Shaolan was in a trance, and saw an emoji on his face with several black lines crossed on his forehead=. =||||

The French soldier smiled calmly: "It's not difficult to understand. The law of piracy, or, as it is now called...... Is it called 'Darwinism'? Is it? I'm glad we wouldn't have ...... otherwise."

The "Italians" were silent, and the polar bear grinned and touched the back of his neck. It's not a good experience to be targeted by an enemy who lurks not far away but doesn't know it - what's even more intimidating is that the other party didn't show up until the end, but took the initiative to show up and leave.

"- Our broken house can hear the 'Chinese singing."

"Russian" said, in an affirmative tone. "The little boss we killed, the mercenaries outside must have some deep hatred for him. So even under the influence of singing, he only had the mind to watch a good show. ”

"β€”rather to say that the contradiction with that tricky little boss was so great that the influence exerted by the 'Chinese' did not work for him," the "Italian" snapped his fingers vigorously, "my God." So he was really cheering us on those whistles, oh I'm so fucking grateful! ”

He shook his head vigorously to strengthen his tone. β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hey, so what? ”

"'Chinese' can affect even a character at the level of a small boss," the Frenchman continued for him as he hesitated, as if he wasn't sure whether he should continue, "so ,...... Thanks, my friend. ”

The soldier smiled at Jin Shaolan and raised his glass in greeting. When the talkative partner wanted to speak again, he gently pressed down with his other hand, and the "Italian" kept quiet, looking at Jin Shaolan and then at him. The Frenchman laughed.

"It's good to get straight to the point and ask for advice about this kind of thing." He said, gesturing to Jin Shaolan: "I'm sorry, my Chinese friend, this is presumptuous: I would like to ask if the strange 'influence' exerted on those mercenary enemies in the morning battle is an additional effect of your auxiliary skills?" ”

Seeing Jin Shaolan smiling and silent, he breathed a sigh of relief, and the polar bear also laughed twice. The French soldier continued: "For I wish I could find out if you could continue this wonderful influence in the afternoon battle?" Provided, of course, if you want to. ”

Regarding the request to continue to "help", Jin Shaolan felt that the four-hour concert (...... would be concocted in the afternoon Not a big problem. With the contractor's digital body and physical abilities far beyond ordinary people, he has recovered to seventy-seven eighty-eight at this time; At the same time, he was still exploring to a certain extent in the morning's attempt, and after being relatively proficient, the energy consumed must have been greatly saved. He then sidestepped the previous question, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm not sure about that." But I'm ready to continue my morning attempt, and it's not so easy to get the friendship of Ms. Tabeza, isn't it? ”

Although he was still so humble and gentle in their eyes, the slightly curled corners of his mouth as "Mysterious Shao Lang Red-robed Mage from the East" undoubtedly revealed that he was very confident in this point.

"Thank you so much for your help, the delicious lunch refreshed me a lot and I feel like I can persevere," he joked. And the Frenchman, with a calm smile, suggested:

"I think, or rather, I hope, we can be more 'helpful' for you."

"More help" refers to the two scrolls taken out by the "Russians" (he seems to be one of the troika in charge of keeping the loot), to be honest, this thing is more like a page of notes than a magic item, the material is ordinary white paper no matter how you look at it, and the paint on it is very bright and eye-catching. One is the "Primary Spirit Scroll" and the other is the "Primary Intelligence Scroll", which, as in the game, has a temporary increase in individual attributes for half an hour.

At first, Jin Shaolan wondered why the polar bear showed a similar attitude towards the two scrolls, and even faintly disliked the intelligence scrolls - "We physique factions with developed limbs have nothing to do with 'intelligence' or anything anyway, but they should still be able to help a mind like you." Unlike in the game, the increase in "Intelligence" in Nightmare Space is no longer only meaningful for legal professions, but determines the maximum amount of mental power and the recovery speed that is important to everyone. Although Jin Shaolan, who had just entered the space, still lacked understanding of everything in the nightmare space, judging from the average intelligence of ordinary adult males of 5 points, why did the "three soldiers" and their party not attach much importance to Zhang Scroll? It wasn't until the polar bear happily traded the two scrolls directly to him that Jin Shaolan suddenly realized.

Looking at the malicious "10%", Jin Shaolan took some effort to suppress the smile at the stage of nerve signals, without allowing it to be successfully transformed into expressions.
