Chapter 166: Trouble Comes Again
During the period when the four of them continued to expand their power, Roy was under the guidance of Isabel and learned the basics with peace of mind.
While his days were going on so full, no one else was idle......
This is a remote road outside the imperial capital, since it is remote, it must be inaccessible, which can also be seen from the lush weeds around.
If people had been here regularly, the weeds would not have grown so well.
"Whoosh!!"
Just as these weeds were enjoying the comfortable sunshine, a black shadow flew by in an instant, and the ensuing strong wind blew the surrounding weeds to fall along the direction of the wind.
If they hadn't been deeply rooted enough, I'm afraid they would have been dancing in the wind by now.
As for the black shadow, it wasn't that it really flew over, but the speed of the black shadow was too fast, almost about the same as the speed of low-altitude flight.
After running for a while, the black shadow passed through a lot of complicated terrain and finally came to the destination this time.
At the end of the road, there is a mountain wall that looks like a dead end, and there are no other paths around.
Of course not.
I saw this black shadow walk to the mountain wall, and stretched out a small white hand from the cloak, judging from the shape and skin of this hand, this should be a woman.
She tentatively groped in front of the mountain wall for a while, and then as if she had found the right position, she raised her hand and knocked on it, and immediately there was a sound that did not look like it was knocking on a stone.
It sounded like a hollow inside.
But......
Girl, you have a lot of strength! This is still a stone after all!
After knocking, she took two steps back and waited quietly.
After I don't know how long, the mountain wall suddenly moved, and I saw that the complete mountain wall in front of me suddenly cracked a gap, and as the gap became larger and larger, a passage extending downwards appeared in front of the woman.
She watched this scene quietly, and did not feel any surprise, she must have known that this place was unusual, right?
When the stone door was opened to the extreme, she walked inside.
As her figure slowly disappeared, the stone door slowly closed, and from the outside, the mountain wall was no different from the beginning, and no one would know that there was such a secret place unless they saw it with their own eyes.
The passage hidden in the mountain is not completely dark, and you can't see your fingers.
There are a lot of magical equipment for lighting hanging on both sides of the passage, but the light provided here is dim and reddish, which makes the atmosphere of the entire passage look very gloomy, and makes people's mood very depressed.
After a long and narrow journey, the mysterious woman came to the open hall.
The hall is not a natural formation, and some signs of artificial excavation can be clearly seen in the marks left on the walls around it.
The furnishings in the hall are very simple, without too much ornate decoration.
There was a man dressed like a woman, standing in the middle of the hall, with his back to her.
Looking at the person in front of her, the woman naturally spoke: "Cotton and Chaz are both controlled by the patrol guard, without the two of them, the Demon Pattern Master Guild will only be more chaotic." ”
"The Demon Pattern Master Guild is over, and I can't count on them. ”
Hearing the woman's words, the man snorted softly and said, "I didn't put all my hopes in them. ”
After a pause, he continued to ask, "Is there any news about the person I asked you to find?"
His voice didn't sound young, and this man must be a certain age.
"Well, there it is. ”
The woman nodded directly.
The man immediately turned around, but perhaps because of the light, the woman could not see the man's face clearly, and naturally did not know his true identity.
It's just that the woman doesn't care about this, because she doesn't care about the person's identity or how he looks.
"Tell me who that person really is!!"
He held out his hand to the woman, eager to know the answer.
It's about whether their mission can go smoothly this time.
However, the woman did not immediately take out what she wanted, she stood still and asked, as if interrogating a prisoner, "I brought what you wanted, what do I want?"
"Huh!"
Hearing the woman's words, the middle-aged man chuckled and slowly withdrew his hand, and said at the same time, "You are really persistent." ”
"From the very beginning of the cooperation, I put forward my conditions, since it is cooperation, then naturally I help you, and you have to help me. Now that I've got important information for you, it's only right for you to repay me. ”
The woman did not see her actions as a temporary price increase, she was now just begging her boss for wages after doing her work, just like a normal worker.
She thought it was a normal thing.
"You are not the first person to dare to cooperate with our bloody assassins, but you are the first to dare to negotiate terms with us. ”
The representative of the bloody assassin said this with deep meaning, and then said calmly: "Hofkins and his daughter Isabel are now separated, Isabel is active in the imperial capital, but I think it may be inconvenient for you to start with the current imperial capital." ”
"But Hofkins is still recovering from his injuries outside the city, and you can go straight to him and kill him with a finger while he's weak. ”
Hearing this, the woman's eyes couldn't help but light up, and she immediately asked, "Where is he?!"
Isabel doesn't matter whatever, but Hofkins she must kill her!
She'd been looking for Hofkins for a long time, and had disappeared since the last time their father and daughter were attacked and injured by herself.
She regretted it very much, it was a great opportunity, and normally she could only have a draw with Isabel, let alone Hofkins.
The last time she used a series of ambushes and sneak attacks, such as the items she exchanged from the Bloody Assassin and traps, she could be considered to have seriously injured Hofkins.
Unfortunately, Isabel was able to rescue Hofkins in time for her to escape from her.
Finally, the last time Isabel showed up in the underground casino, but at that time Isabel was the only one, and in order to save the props that were used to deal with Hofkins, she could only have a tie with Isabel.
Moreover, the person she wants to kill has always been Hofkins, and it doesn't make sense for Isabel to show up alone.
But now it's okay, there's finally news from Hofkins.
Especially now that Hofkins is seriously injured, she can kill Hofkins without much effort!
Seeing the girl in front of him so eagerly, the bloody assassin couldn't help but sneer, but he didn't just listen to him: "Tell me the news, and I'll tell you where Hofkins is." ”
The woman was stunned for a moment, looking a little hesitant.
However, she didn't think about it for long, and finally took the initiative to speak: "That person, you may also know, her name is Ainabel Owen, and she is the champion of the Demon Pattern Master Contest held by Duke Grant this time. ”
"Is that her?!"
The Bloody Assassin said in disbelief that it was clear that he knew Ainabel and was surprised by the result.
"It's not wrong that she's an orphan, but are you sure it's her?"
The Bloody Assassin looked astonished.
The woman nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sure!"
"What about the evidence?"
The Bloody Assassin continued to ask, after all, it was about their next series of plans.
"I found a portrait of Duke Grant in her manor as a young manor, and her face is almost identical to that of Ainabel! ”
The woman was very sure, and she was not afraid of the bloody assassin going with her to investigate.
Tsk, Roy probably never imagined that just when their plan was going fairly well, another trouble struck.
