Chapter 125: Preparation (II)
"Yes!" Fang Xin said lightly, and casually took out a badge, this is the magician's unified badge, and there are only slight differences between cities.
Hadak was shocked in his heart, but he thought in his heart, and after a moment, he said, "My lord, if you are willing to contribute a sum of money, I can temporarily hire 10 assassins in the city, all of them are level six. ”
"How much?"
"150 silver rakes/month, double round-trip."
10 people, back and forth once, it is 300 silver rak, which is equal to 300 gold rak, Fang Xin thought about it, and said: "Okay, I hired it, and also, you can buy me a batch of bows and arrows, about twenty pairs, four hundred arrows are enough, if the money is not enough, I will guarantee it as a magician." ”
After calculating the strength, he still felt that there was a difference, but seafarers could not be hired at will, Fang Xin said: "Is there a ship back to Buoshe?" We can go along, preferably with people with a bit of status. ”
"My lord, it's easy, I'll go up and check the dock records, very few people want to go with strangers, but it doesn't matter to you, who would refuse to go with a magician? Please wait, these things will be done in an hour. Hadak said with a slight bow, and immediately withdrew.
Fang Xin's eyes were deep, and inviting a boat to accompany him not only strengthened his strength, but also was a witness, so he had to be a person with an identity.
Fang Xin'an sat on the chair, supported his left cheek with his right hand on the table, closed his eyes and rested in contemplation.
An hour later, Hadak came in with ten men, and they were ten chests, whom Fang Xin had received in the captain's quarters.
"Well done, Hadak." Fang Xin looked at the bow and arrows in the box for a moment and said. The soldiers who came from the island were all elite, and although they were not specialized archers, they were also skilled archers.
With this, the strength of the team can surge, and the group of assassins in front of him, Fang Xin, looked at it with great attention.
Thieves are not really good at frontal combat, but are better at concealing operations, and even more at spying on intelligence, but assassins are different, assassins. The thieves' elites, although not priests and mages, have also gained special powers due to their hard work and devout faith.
The group of assassins in front of them, dressed in black, although in front of them. There was still a vague feeling, it was the hidden supernatural power, and there was a gloomy and cold look on his face, and his eyes flashed with evil and cunning - Fang Xin could feel the smell of blood on them from the moment they met.
"Very well, I will arrange your accommodation in case of an attack. I allow you to fight freely, and these are some poison gases and potions, and you are free to use them when you want. "When it comes to using these things, Fang Xin can't compare to these professional assassins.
The Assassin at the head bowed slightly, and took the magic potion.
Fang Xin took another letter from Hadak: "A letter of introduction from the Althorp Chamber of Commerce? Well, Dave. Baron Barnum? ”
"Yes, Dave. Barnum, who is considered a relatively declining nobleman in this continent, also invests in business, this time going to Imbu. There was a boat, and the noble escorts on board were also very nice. There are 50 people. ”
"Very good, no matter how he declines, he is still a hereditary nobleman, a baron." Fang Xin smiled, there was nothing wrong with the leafy continent, but it was very messy to call each other, so Fang Xin decided to name it according to himself. Refer to his original continent as the One Leaf Continent. Now the continent is called the Futaba Continent, and so on: "Hadak." You're doing a really good job, you arrange accommodation for them, I'll visit the baron, and then we can go." ”
"Yes!"
The baron's ship was not far away, Fang Xin looked at it, took out a post, wrote some things about himself, and then put on his magic robe, and first ordered the polite Coel, to visit the baron.
Moments later, the baron met with Coelle in the captain's room.
Coel was relatively well-dressed and well-mannered, much like some aristocratic family.
The baron glanced at it, then opened the salute.
"Lord of the Silver Rose Manor of the Kingdom of Sampole, Hamblin. Fox Knights ......"
The kingdom of Sample is in the Yiye Continent, which is considered a kingdom above the middle, with a territory of 500,000 square kilometers, and it is his destination, this baron naturally knows, however, there is nothing for a knight, but the surname Fixes seems to be somewhat familiar, and owning a manor means that it is a legitimate knight, not a knight who got it casually.
The baron was a little disdainful, but in the blink of an eye, he was shocked by the three words of magician below.
"Your Lord is a magician?" The baron asked puzzledly, it was rare to be both a knight and a magician.
"Yes, the master is a magician, a member of the Fix family." Coael explained further.
"The Fixes, oh, are the Grand Dukes of the Duchy of Mandabe." The baron suddenly remembered that the Duchy of Mandabe, an independent principality on the Yiye Continent, had an area of about 50,000 square kilometers, was close to the sea on three sides, and had considerable power on the sea.
Combining these identities, the baron immediately became much more enthusiastic: "Welcome to Hamblin. The Fox Knight came to visit, oh, you just said that your master is the owner of the Breaking Wave and the Rose? ”
"Oh, Lord Baron, one boat belongs to the family, and another boat belongs to the master of my family."
"Oh, of course, of course, the Fixes have a talent and talent for seafaring." The baron sold one-fifth of his territory, and only bought one ship to make some profit, and now knew that Hamblin had two ships, and was naturally a member of the famous Grand Duke's family, and said enthusiastically: "Go back and tell your master, I welcome his arrival." ”
"Yes, Your Excellency."
A moment later, Fang Xin arrived on the ship, and the baron personally greeted him.
Fang Xin was dressed in a magician's robe, but he was heroic.
"Oh, Hamblin. Knights of Fix, welcome to my ship. The baron said in admiration.
"Oh, greetings to you, Dave. Baron Barnum, I was in the Chamber of Commerce just now, preparing to set sail, and I learned that you were also going to Sample, how could I not pay a visit to a gentleman of your honor? Fang Xin said secretly with joy, he didn't even seem to have to take out the letter of introduction from the Chamber of Commerce.
"What, are you going to set sail too?" The baron asked.
"Yes, Baron, I am already fully loaded, in fact, if I had not known that you were here, we would have set sail, you see, our two ships are ready."
"Oh, I really can't think of it, I'm also ready to set sail today, it seems that we can go together." Indeed, the sea is dangerous, and it is best to go with it, provided that you are accompanied by reliable people.
"It is my pleasure, Baron, that I invite you to visit my ship." Fang Xin said.
"Of course, of course!" The baron was quite fond of the advice of the letter.
The group moved to Fang Xin's ship, the full load of goods made the baron admire, waiting for Fang Xin to think about it, or gave the letter of introduction from the Chamber of Commerce to the baron, the baron completely dispelled the doubts and worries in his heart, agreed to set sail together, and then went to the Samppur Kingdom on the opposite continent.
Of course, Fang Xin also understood the details of the baron, forty-eight warriors, all of them were about level five, and two of them were already level six, obviously, this time the baron sailed, for safety, he still gathered all the warriors in the territory, and may even hire some warriors.
This is of course quite advantageous to the other party's letter.
At the sound of an order, three boats set sail at the same time, cut through the waves, and left the harbor.
However, at this moment, a small boat looked at it from a distance, this ship, a small sailing ship, although it could not sail on the ocean, but it could operate within ten miles of the coast, and it could sail at three times the speed of the Fangxin Breaking Waves.
It's the fastest clipper at sea, but a little rougher wind and waves can turn it over, so even if it's a coastal cruise, those who dare to sail it are all veteran sailors who are proficient in water.
The boat approached, questioned for a few more moments, and then rushed to a hidden boat in the docks.
Leaning into the boat, an old man on the boat had already watched the departure of the three boats from afar, until the mast had disappeared, he did not turn around, if Fang Xin was here, he would have found that this was Vincent. Sir Manley.
"Sir, I've observed, there are seventy people in two boats, and the new one is Dave. Baron Barnum, there were fifty people on board, a total of one hundred and twenty people. ”
"One hundred and twenty people, it seems that this Hamblin is very cunning, and he seems to have smelled something." Sir it is clear from this that our ship was robbed by him, although it has not yet been detected by what method was used. A middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "However, we have three boats, two hundred people, all old sailors, and we can definitely take them." ”
Vincent. Sir Manley gazed at the water, felt the ship, and as the waves swayed slightly, the ripples of the water, in the sunlight, were constantly changing.
He withdrew his gaze and said, "Add another boat, whose boat is there nearby?" ”
"There's the Dan, but it's going to be transported to Irons." Someone cautiously said, temporarily transferred, it will be too much loss, money is still a small matter, a matter of credibility......
"Transfer over, no matter how big the loss is, as long as you take these three boats, you can make up for it." Vincent. Manly immediately said decisively, his eyes narrowing to reveal a cold light: "Let's set sail first, and when the other two ships and the Dan'er have merged, we will catch up immediately." ”
"Yes, Sir!" Now that the decision has been made, it is carried out naturally, and a moment later, a ship leaves the port.
