He briefly talked to the webworm about some important issues, and Cheese also asked if the death of the spider tamer and the shadow was related. After receiving a negative answer, the group set off to Crimson Blood to find One-Eye. God knows how this woman who controls the underground world of the royal capital will react after seeing the corpse of the shadow. The mage wasn't afraid that the underground boss would be scared, but he was more worried about whether the "one-eyed" would make some irrational decisions out of anger.

Moreover, even if Cheese wanted to get all the information that the networms knew at once, it would be too dangerous to share the information in this house.

The time to return to Crimson Blood was much shorter than Si had expected. The horses brought by Lothar saved them from trekking through the noisy streets of the royal capital, and the flag of the Count of Montenegro was enough for most passers-by to make way for them to be wide enough. So, when the group came to Crimson Blood, the sun in the sky was still some distance from dusk.

The tavern was deserted at this time than the last time the mage had visited, and the open door was like a huge black mouth, and the wind blowing from it smelled of slaughter.

"Looks like this tavern isn't open right now. "For the famous underground stronghold of the Blue Lion King, Lothar still has some knowledge of the Crimson Blood. Although the Earl also plans to come here to see what the rumored "One-Eye" who holds more than half of the underground transactions of the entire Greylion is like. But because of his identity, he still hasn't achieved this wish. I didn't come here first, but I followed Cheese here.

"I think it's going to be like this in the next few days. The mage said, turning over and dismounting, without having to enter the tavern, the anger mixed with sadness had already told him that Roland had sent back the corpse of the shadow.

"First of all, I really didn't participate in yesterday's operation. I was just ordered to follow the kid and send the spider to see where he went. "As a mercenary, the net worm naturally knows the things of the underground world very well. She knew that the person who was hung on the city gate this afternoon was the killer known as the first blue lion, and she knew that this killer was the henchman of the biggest gang leader in the entire kingdom. If the boss thought he had something to do with the Shadow's death, the networm didn't know that he would be subjected to such inhuman torture.

"Rest assured, she's not that kind of person. If you really didn't participate, she wouldn't hurt you. Cheese said casually. The mage knew very well that One-Eyed must have had his own channels of investigation into Shadow's death, and that the tavern's desertion was proof that all of the boss's eyes and ears had acted.

"You guys wait here, I'll go say hello to my new friend. Lothar said to the bear hunters behind him. At the same time, the Count also handed over the weapons he was carrying to his men for safekeeping, and in any case, it was disrespectful to enter the tavern with a blade and soldiers.

Led by Cheese, the three of them walked through the door of Crimson Blood. And as they saw outside the door, there was not a single light in the entire hall. Only a circle of white candles lay on the floor in the center of the hall, and in the candles lay the corpse of the shadow.

Seeing this, the mage took the initiative to lower his hood, and Lothar behind him also took off his helmet. The three of them stood by the gate, silently waiting for the owner to speak.

"Dying in the shadows is the fate of the Assassins. The person who takes the life of a person should have the consciousness to die at any time. One-eyed's voice came from the position of the bar, but because the room was so dim, Cheese could barely see her faint back sitting on the edge of the bar.

"But it was hung from the city gate and was treated as an ornamental object...... That shouldn't have been his fate. "You can tell from the voice that One-Eye is probably not wearing a mask at this time, and she must have drunk some wine.

"I'm sorry for what happened to the shadow. The mage bowed slightly and said.

"You don't need to be sorry, Mr. Wizard. That's not your fault. In fact, I would also like to thank you for saving him from shame before I found a way. One-Eye's voice paused, as if to sort out the words, "What's more, you sent someone back to me." By the way, the old gentleman and Sparrow were placed in the room next door to the tavern by me. There are my people there to protect and don't have to worry about their safety. Little Sparrow and Shadow have always had a good relationship, and he is so sad. Poor child. ”

"And what about you, Lady One-Eyed, how do you feel right now?" Lothar took a step forward, the glow of his golden armor reflecting the dimly lit hall a little.

"Lord Count of Montenegro, I am glad that such a great man as you would come to my tavern. It seems that I still underestimated Mr. Cheese's connections. Even bear hunters are willing to go with him. One-Eye turned his head and looked at Lothar and said.

"The title of Bear Hunter is something you praised. Although I am a member of the Montenegrin family, I don't think I can afford this title yet. But you, though I have always focused only on war, have heard your name many times from many places. The Count of Montenegro nodded, acknowledging his identity.

"Hehe, we are not qualified to be compared to a kingdom earl. Please sit down and I'll pour you some wine. But please don't light the lamp, I don't want the shadow to be disturbed. One-Eye said.

It wasn't a difficult task for the three of them to get to the bar in the dark, in fact, most of the tables and chairs in the hall had been placed against the wall in order to make room for the corpse of the shadow. It looks like Crimson Blood has no plans to open as a tavern anytime soon. Sitting on a chair in front of the bar, One-Eye had already pulled out three new cups from the bar. She casually poured wine from the bottle she had just poured for the three of them, then raised her glass and said.

"This cup, for the shadows. ”

There were no clinking glasses, which was something that was only done during celebrations and alliances, and the cheese priests raised their glasses slightly and drank the liquid from the glasses. It's a bitter flavor made from rye, and although it has been carefully filtered, the bitterness in the wine is enough to numb the tongue.

"Boom. With the sound of the wine glass on the bar, the networm who had drunk the rye wine with the cheese fell to the ground, and the whole person fell from the seat and hit the floor.

"Don't worry, it's just a little medicine to make you sleep. It's a little punishment for her. He poured himself another glass of wine, and said casually.

Cheese said that he had already seen the one-eyed skill. Lothar was shocked when he saw this, and although the light in the hall was relatively dim, the Earl's gaze never took off the one-eye. This meant that if One-Eye had poisoned the networm's gob at what time and in what way, he wouldn't have noticed it at all.

"Now, I think we can have a good talk. About our common enemy, and revenge. ”
