Chapter 53, Misunderstanding
After Erwin left the tavern, the Free Guild sent people to the abandoned mines in the Bekhara region to confirm the authenticity of the information, while others began to secretly investigate Erwin's identity.
The men sent out returned that night, and after confirming that the Fire Pit Viper's lair was indeed in an abandoned mine, the Freeman's Guild had some more information about Erwyn - except that he had done something with a female companion after entering the city, but his identity and origin were unknown.
The next morning, Erwin took Susan to the Victor's Tavern again.
As if he had known that he would come at this time, the waitress had stood at the door waiting for him yesterday.
The hostess deliberately changed her style today, put on more attractive clothes, and when she saw Erwin coming over with a girl who was much more beautiful than herself, her eyes immediately became resentful.
Erwin touched his nose and smiled awkwardly, and Susan, who was following him, didn't know what he had misunderstood, and stabbed him in the back with a winged bow.
Continue to the room from yesterday, the room is still the middle-aged man we met yesterday, but in addition to him, there are two strangers.
Two faces that Elwin had never seen were on the chairs on one side of the room—both men, one in his forties, dressed in heavy black armor, with no head on his head, a long string of beards under his nose and under the bar, and two pigtails, and his faces looked a little menacing, but his eyes were very peaceful.
The other was a young man of no more than twenty-five years of age, who was handsome, with meticulously groomed hair, and wore the most popular set of leather armor and a very pretentious black cape.
When Erwin and Susan came in, they immediately attracted the attention of the three people in the room, and the middle-aged man didn't seem surprised that Erwin was bringing the girl, still with a smile on his face, and stretched out his hand to make a gesture to please take a seat.
The two mercenary-looking men were also looking at Erwin and Susan, the bald eyes stared at Erwin without blinking, and a look of solemnity flashed in his eyes, while the young mercenary was very interested in Susan and kept looking at her.
"Sir, as you can see, we have confirmed the authenticity of the information, and it is good to know that it is true." The middle-aged man's tone was unhurried, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "But there is one thing I have to inform you, after confirming the truth of the information, the guild immediately sent someone to inform the lord, but you must know that the person who placed the bounty many years ago was Sir Becras, but he no longer manages the affairs of the territory, including this bounty. And the current lord is Sir Becras the Younger, Lord Lord, he ...... I don't want to mess with that fire pit worm anymore, you know what I mean? ”
After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he looked at Erwin without blinking, but what disappointed him was that after hearing the news, the expression of the young man in front of him did not change at all, and he didn't even see the slightest surprise in his eyes, as if he had already known about it.
"Of course I understand, I've heard that the current lord is a very thrifty person." Erwin nodded and said.
This evaluation made both him and the middle-aged man laugh tacitly.
Sir Becras Jr. was a very stingy and even dime a dime nobleman, and after he inherited the domain from his father Becras, he kept reducing unnecessary or even necessary expenses in the domain, and refused to pay even the meager monthly salaries of his servants, and hid everything for golden money, so that one had to wonder if the sir had dragon blood, because his mother used to be a famous courtesan, and it was not surprising to bring a green hat to his father.
This matter is a laughing stock for many people who have money and have access to the upper circles in Black Pearl Cell, and ordinary people don't know this, for example, the other three people in the room now don't know what the two of them are laughing at.
After laughing, the middle-aged man's attitude obviously became a little more respectful, although he didn't know Erwin's identity, but this did not prevent him from guessing this young man in his heart.
Able to map this kind of stealth technology, you can easily find the location of the fire pit worm's nest, know the secrets of the upper class, talk freely, live in cheap hotels is probably a hobby, and have a beautiful maid disguised as a mercenary by her side - if Susan knows the guess in the middle-aged man's mind at this time, I am afraid that she will be angry and pull out the winged bow and shoot him over.
All in all, Erwin's status in the minds of middle-aged men has been gradually improved a lot.
But God knows, Elwin knew what was going on with Sir Becras Jr., only because he liked to gather background information about the game, and he had already guessed that the bounty would not be available before he came here.
The conversation between the two was quite pleasant, and seeing that Erwin was not annoyed by the bounty blown, the middle-aged man hurriedly said the decision of the Free Men's Guild.
"Sir, please don't mind this matter, our guild is willing to buy your information at a high level of six hundred Sid gold coins, and if you have time, you can wait for us to dispose of the fire pit viper, and you can choose two things in the lair as the guild's apology and compensation to you."
Naturally, it is impossible for the Liberals Guild to offend one of the masters of this area because the lord has withdrawn the bounty, and the troubles that arise as a result are very simple to solve - just go back and add to this mysterious young man and buy the information from him, which is not a loss for the Liberals Guild, the value of a fire pit beetle nest is not low, and if this matter spreads, the last person who will lose face will only be the lord, anyway, the sir has always been shameless.
Whether it is actual profit or reputation, it will not be lost, and if you give a little sweetness, you may be able to make friends with this mysterious young man who may have an aristocratic background, and this kind of business will be very happy to be done by the Free People's Guild.
"Oh? Are you going to take care of this lair yourself? Erwin raised his eyebrows, but it was normal to think about it later, the Liberals Guild was one of the major forces in the vicinity, and it would naturally have its own force organization under its hands, probably thinking that he could eat this fire pit worm by himself!
"Yes sir, please let me introduce you, these two are Captain Tom and Captain Jace, the heads of the Evil Claw Mercenary Regiment and the Flame Mercenary Regiment respectively, two large mercenary groups that are famous in Black Pearl Cell City, and are currently working for our Free Guild." The middle-aged man hurriedly introduced Erwyn, with a hint of smugness in his tone.
These two mercenary groups are the largest and strongest mercenary groups in the Black Pearl Cell, and they have been serving the Liberals Guild for a long time, and if they are only in terms of force, they are stronger than the lord's private soldiers.
The bald middle-aged man was the Tom leader of the Evil Claw Mercenary Group, and the young man with a high fashion value was the Jace leader of the Flame Mercenary Group.
Erwin also smiled and nodded, he hadn't seen these two people, and he wasn't in the game right now, so he couldn't check their level and career tendencies. However, judging from his dealings with the mercenary groups of the Liberals' Guild in the game, these two people should be very powerful, at least close to the level of the Black Bronze Medal.
However, the 2O-level fire pit viper is already the strength of the middle stage of the Black Order, and even if the entire Free Guild is put into it, it is not enough to see it, so Erwin can only mourn for these two mercenaries who went to die in his heart.
If you don't die, you won't die!
"It depends, if there is still time, I will stay and wait for your good news." Erwin said with a smile.
The two chatted for a while, and Erwin's knowledge surprised everyone present except Susan, and the more the middle-aged man was sure of his guess about the young man's identity and background.
Erwin saw that it was not too early, so he ended the topic in time, and the middle-aged man hurriedly took out a money bag at least the size of a human head and filled with Sid gold coins from under the table, so that the two mercenary captains could look at it straight.
"Why are you still stunned? Take it. Erwin turned around and greeted Susan.
The girl immediately came back to her senses from her stunned state, blushed and said "oh", and then took two steps forward and took the money bag from the middle-aged man's hand.
Just now, when she heard the middle-aged man say that he wanted to buy the information that Erwin had mentioned to her this morning with six hundred Sid gold coins, she still felt a little incredible, and finally got the money in her hands at this time, and immediately pursed her lips and laughed happily, but since experiencing the impact of the gold mountain in the Moore Gold Room, Susan now has a full resistance to large sums of money.
The middle-aged man who saw this scene immediately praised in his heart, worthy of being a person who had seen the scene, even the maid could keep calm when she saw so much money, and on the other hand, the two mercenary leaders of the guild were already staring at the money bag with their eyes straight at this time, looking like an idiot with a blank head.
"Happy cooperation, I wish you success." Seeing that Susan had already got the money in his hand, and Erwin didn't want to stay here any longer, he stretched out his hand to the middle-aged man.
This was just a subconscious action on Erwin's part, but immediately he saw this middle-aged man who seemed to be in the middle of the city, stunned for a moment, and then stretched out a hand in fear and shook it lightly with him.
Erwin gave the middle-aged man a strange and speechless look, and then left the room with Susan.
But what Erwin didn't know was what kind of impact this subconscious action brought to the middle-aged man, which made him keep muttering in his heart at this time: "The handshake ceremony, it turned out to be a handshake ceremony, this is the etiquette that only high-ranking nobles have, my God, where did he come from." ”
Middle-aged men have gone further and further down the path of misunderstanding!
