The two of them first dismantled some of the traps in the corridors, and then carefully reconnoitred some of the rooms, and found that they were all servants' rooms, or empty rooms, or rooms for various purposes. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

After a quick search, the two finally confirmed the master room of the mansion.

However, after Zhou Dong and Jack sneaked in, they immediately noticed an unreasonable state of affairs.

The host is not there!

Zhou Dong quickly rummaged through the cabinets, and soon found a bag full of gold coins, which should be the owner's private money, and together with it, there were some precious gemstone necklaces, and he did not politely take them together, all of them were stuffed into a large cowhide bag.

Jack looked a little angry, with his professionalism, he didn't have the speed of the other party to find the place where the valuable things were hidden.

Zhou Dong didn't do anything wrong, and probably left about thirty percent of the value of this room, which is equivalent to three or seven points.

However, Jack soon found some unexpected catch, a tightly locked chest hidden in a wall mechanism at the back of a famous painting.

"Hey! Looks like Lady Luck is still on my side! ”

This wall trap and chest have powerful traps and advanced locks, respectively, and even cost Jack a nice booster to safely disarm the trap and unlock it.

"This ......"

"Nice stuff."

After Jack opened the box, he was immediately dumbfounded, but Zhou Dong was not surprised.

The contents of the box were not some peerless treasures, but a stack of paper.

didn't care about the annoyed Jack, Zhou Dong took the desk by the window and spread it out, and the bright moonlight outside reflected the contents of the scattered stack of papers clearly.

His eyes were like scanners, reflecting a faint and relentless light, and the contents of the document could be called shocking to ordinary people.

Jack stood aside and watched, and as he looked more and more, he couldn't help but breathe more and more rapidly, and his pupils dilated, and it was obvious that the seasoned adventurer was also surprised by the contents.

"Eric, what are you going to do?" Jack asked tentatively.

"Didn't you have a plan in mind from the moment you approached me?"

Zhou Dong turned around, half of his tough face was bronzed by the sea breeze and sun, and it softened a little in the moonlight, but the other half of his face was hidden in the dark, adding a bit of mystery and compulsion to his calmness.

"......" The thief was silent, and after a few seconds, he asked faintly, "And how much do you know?" ”

"Not much, not too much." Zhou Dong grinned, his teeth looked quite white in the moonlight, but this gentle smile without smiling was not the slightest warmth.

Jack quietly took a few steps back, most of his body disappeared into the shadows, and he was silent for a while, thinking again before he spoke again: "Let's all talk about it, maybe we can cooperate and get what we need." ”

"I don't want to say it yet, and I don't plan to ask, if you want, you can continue to follow me until the Vortex bandits are wiped out, I think we should have a more certain idea at that time."

"Okay."

After the two finished speaking, Jack saw that the other party gently pushed the window away as if nothing had happened, and he also collected his mood and quickly followed.

But after walking for a while, the thieves realized that something was wrong.

"Hey! Erik, that's not the way out of town, is it? ”

"It's still early in the morning, so let's do one more thing."

"You're going to follow up on the clue you just had?"

"That's not what we should be in contact with now, let's concentrate on solving the Vortex bandits at hand first."

"Then you'll have to tell me about your plans."

Jack was a little irritable, and a man of his rank had clearly perceived from all kinds of details that he, an adult, had been suppressed by this young man who seemed to be very young, both intellectually and forcefully.

"It's simple, we help the Vortex Bandits kidnap someone."

"What!"

Rao is Jack, and he can't help but be surprised at this moment.

This person is also a private house to steal, and he is planning to kidnap, although he has also done a lot of bad things in his adventure career, but it is the first time he has seen a person who can do these things so calmly and indifferently.

"Who are you going to tie up? Could it be the official? ”

"I'm not interested, I'm going to tie up the city lord's son, not long ago we robbed the prison, and we happened to take away a lot of troops in the city, the guard force of the city lord's mansion must be slack than usual, it's a good time."

"Kidnapping the son of the city lord...... You're going to cause trouble! ”

Jack immediately guessed the intention of Zhou Dong's behavior, thinking from his thinking point of view, the effect of this is indeed very good, but the disadvantages are also very obvious, he said puzzledly: "But in this way, even if the city lord is really angry and sends troops to exterminate the Vortex bandits, but when he finds out that you did this, it will be an absolutely undying mortal enemy." ”

Zhou Dong glanced at him indifferently and replied, "He won't necessarily send it, because he knows that the Vortex Bandit Group exists, even if he doesn't stop me and my clan from taking revenge, that's enough." Besides, why did the city lord know about the existence of the Vortex Bandits, but he had been derelict in his duties and did not deal with it, resulting in the hunter family I was born in being almost completely killed by the Vortex Bandits yesterday? ”

"First, the city lord is not at the level of a qualified city lord, and I just rang the alarm for him; The second is that the city lord is also very likely to collude with the Vortex bandits, judging from those document clues, this possibility is not small, no matter which one it is, we don't have to worry about making enemies with the city lord of Moss Stone City, unless you plan to take refuge in them. ”

"Of course not!"

Jack shook his head, and he said: "Although I am an adventurer and a thief who is greedy for money, I also have my own bottom line, and the things recorded in those documents have crossed my bottom line. ”

While waiting until four o'clock in the morning, Zhou Dong and Jack got two horses first.

Everyone knew that the city lord of Moss Stone City had a son and valued his precious son very much, but none of them could have imagined that someone would have the audacity to attack his son tonight.

It is clear that the city lord's mansion, but the magic traps arranged here are not as strict as the mansions of the previous high-ranking officials of the patrol team, but Zhou Dong and Jack, who have seen those secret documents, will feel that it is normal for the two to be different.

Because that high-ranking official is not only a corrupt official, but there is also a force behind him that supports him, whether it is financial or manpower, as well as various resources and material resources.

One of the most time-consuming aspects of infiltrating the castle was waiting for the patrolling guards to walk through the shadowed area where they were hiding, allowing them to move forward quickly for a while, then lurking, and then moving forward a little further, and the two of them acted cautiously.

There was not much resistance on the road, and the attitude of the soldiers on patrol was not as rigorous as before, and it seemed that the prison robbery over there had indeed attracted a lot of attention.

When successfully kidnapping the seven-year-old son of the city lord who was stunned by the medicine handkerchief out of the city, Jack had to admit that Zhou Dong's bold behavior was actually based on care.

They galloped out of the city on their prepared horses and hurried to the hunting house.

The hunting house is a mountain forest transit station established by some hunters, you must know that sometimes hunters need to rest temporarily in order to track some difficult prey, or hunt in the mountains for many days, these temporary huts are for the hunters at this time.

Of course, this kind of title is only for this world, and the original world known to Zhou Dong is a different name, but as long as the same meaning can be understood, the difference in the name cannot affect the essence.

When Zhou Dong and Jack entered the hunting house, they found that everyone was waiting for them, and the time was only a little past six o'clock in the morning, and everyone was not in the mood to sleep well.

"What's the matter with this kid?" Leah was a druid, and immediately noticed that the child Zhou Dong was holding was not sleeping, but in a coma.

"This is the city lord's child." Zhou Dong put the child on the animal skin chair, then glanced around at everyone, gently pressed his hand, and signaled them to be restless.

"Guarding the safety of Moss Stone City and the surrounding jurisdictional areas, it is the responsibility of the city lord, the current period has been more than ten years away from the nearest major war is more than ten years past, the development of Moss Stone City is thriving, and I have never heard of any foreign forces want to provoke war, it can be said that it is a very peaceful period, but why as the city lord, but let the bandit group of the Vortex Mountain Range grow stronger and stronger, and even just because one of the eldest brothers of my family saved a female family member who was insulted by the bandits, he was exterminated, I am afraid that this kind of thing is not the first time it has happened, However, Moss Stone City turned a blind eye, I inquired about how they had launched several activities to suppress bandits in the mountains, but they were all painless, and it could be seen that some high-level collusions between the two sides were deep. ”

Zhou Dong said this long story in a low voice, coupled with his slightly hoarse male magnetic voice, and his speech was coherent, which aroused everyone's interest to continue listening.

"I didn't go to school, I only lived in a hunter's house for six years, when I was six years old, my parents died, I left the family, and lived alone in the wild, until the eighteen-year-old coming-of-age ceremony the day before yesterday, and I learned some very simple truths from nature in these twelve years."

"Wait! Erik, are you really only eighteen? ”

Zhou Dong finished speaking, but Calder interrupted him.

"yes, what's wrong?" Zhou Dong turned his head to look at him in confusion.

"Me too, but I always thought you were years older than me." Calder realized that he had interrupted the conversation, and scratched his head in embarrassment.

Zhou Dong nodded, did not delve into the topic, and continued: "So, after I left with you, I went with Jack to kidnap the city lord's son and came here, and left a note, telling them that they were kidnapped by the Vortex bandits, and bluntly said that we would take his son to attack the Vortex bandits together, but in fact I would let Will and Jane stay here to take care of this child, I think those who can become the city lords are probably very smart, so this revenge operation, the seven of us should be able to complete it easily, Here's a portion of your reward, so take it first. ”

Zhou Dong took the gold coins and pearls that had been given to the mansions of the high-ranking officials of the city patrol team, and distributed them to the female elf Leah and the dwarf Olseco according to the previous agreement, they were two teams, and these two people were the obvious backbone.

This interlocking plan seems to be imaginative, but as long as you think about it carefully, you will also feel that the success rate is extremely high, and the only drawback is that when the Vortex bandit group is exterminated, their own situation will be very embarrassing.

Without waiting for the other hired adventurers to give their opinions, Will was the first to shout, "No! Eric, I don't want to be a babysitter for the city lord's children here, I'm going to work with you to kill those Vortex bandits with my own hands to avenge my people! ”

"Eric, Will and I are also hunters, and even if our combat effectiveness is not as good as these adventurers you hire, it is not too bad." Jane's face is also not very good-looking.

However, adventurers such as Jack the Thief, Dwarven Boss Adilk, and Elf Lea have some strange expressions on their faces.

Will and Jane were familiar, and that was the look they would have on their own when they heard someone boasting about themselves.

Boom!

Zhou Dong was expressionless and threw a hunting knife hanging on the wall in the hunting house on the table.

"You've only hunted animals, not people, have you?"

Zhou Dong's gaze moved calmly on the faces of the two, and he continued: "And what we are going to do is to kill those people, kill those who are alive, and will desperately want to kill you because of death, I don't believe that you can do it, but since you seem to be very determined, I will give you a chance to test." ”

He snapped and pressed the palm of his left hand against the table.

"Will, you come first, pick up the hunting knife, cut off my left hand, and if you do, I'll take you with me to attack the Vortex bandits."

As soon as these words came out, not only Will and Jane were stunned, but even a few adventurers who had seen a lot of blood were a little frightened.

"You...... Are you crazy?! Will's eyes widened, and he didn't even think about picking up his hunting knife.

The female elf Lea also frowned, she felt that she could understand that this employer was doing everything to protect her people, but this way was too crazy, and she couldn't help but persuade: "There's no need to be so desperate, anyway, if the two of them are hunters, just let them shoot arrows in the back." ”

"It's weird, but I don't know why it feels so exciting." Adilke, who had no brains, muttered in a low voice, and his heart was a little inexplicably excited.

Only Jack and Olseco noticed some small details of Zhou Dong's behavior, and when they casually glanced at each other, they both gained a little more understanding of each other.

This young man doesn't go crazy for no reason, and there must be a reason why he does it.

Will felt that Zhou Dong was crazy, and he didn't want to listen to him at all and picked up the hunting knife.

"I'm coming!"

However, at this time, Jane suddenly stepped forward and picked up the hunting knife, her face was a little pale, and there was a lot of sweat on her forehead in the cool morning, but her eyes were very firm, and the small hand of the woman holding the hunter was also tightly clenched.

"Jane! Are you crazy too? Why should we listen to him, why should we take revenge on us, why should we ......"

"Shut up! I said let me come! ”

But at this time, Jane, who had always behaved gently and decently, rarely drank from her companion, and only looked at this person one last time with a slight disgust.

Jane turned her head and looked at Zhou Dong's deep red black pupils, her body trembled, but her eyes did not flee at all.

Hand up, knife down!
