"Yes, our boss said that the antidote he got was made by the Pharmacists Guild!" said the boy in a proud tone, as if what a great thing it was. But in fact, it is a very powerful thing for a rogue leader like this to find the potions that flow from the high-ranking Pharmacists Association.

Hearing the other party's words of affirmation, Cheese couldn't help but be curious about the antidote in the thief's mouth. Although the mage was 100% sure that the antidote in the other person's mouth would not work, it might ...... Maybe you can bring some inspiration to yourself. For the increasingly complex rat-man plague, Cheese truly realizes that even if he can find the culprit behind it, in the end, he will probably have to rely on himself to find the antidote.

"Sounds like you're confident in the antidote your boss has gotten?" Cheese deliberately made a playful look as he looked at the kid in front of him.

"Of course, since our boss has promised it, it must work!" replied the child, without thinking about it.

"In that case, can you talk to your boss and sell me an antidote? You know, in the face of such a plague, everyone needs to be prepared. Cheese shrugged his shoulders and said.

The thief listened to the mage's words and instinctively wanted to refuse, after all, he was not stupid, and his long-term experience in the streets had taught the child that it was definitely not a good thing to reveal the information of his boss to this wizard who could use magic. But just as he was about to refuse, Cheese shook his left hand, and in his palm, what had been one silver coin became two.

"The rest is my hard money for you. The mage said.

"I ......" With so much money tempted, there is really no way for this child not to waver. With this money, he could find a bakery or some other store to work as an apprentice, completely free from the days of going out to the streets every day to work as a pickpocket. Although the cheese approach is almost to tell the child that there is a trap, many times, even if they know that there is a trap, people still have a fluke mentality and hope that they can rely on their luck or intelligence to save the day. And this kind of thinking is actually the reason why those simple scams can really succeed.

"Okay, I promise you! I'll give you the antidote here tomorrow. In the end, the child could not resist the temptation. However, the mage did not expect the other party to complete the transaction as agreed, and it was almost certain that the pickpocket would report his situation to the so-called boss. But this is enough for the mage, no matter whether the other party sets up an ambush here tomorrow or simply gives cheese fakes, as long as they show up, the mage will naturally have a way to get what he wants.

"Good, boy. I hope you don't lie to me. With a gesture from Cheese, the force pressing on the thief disappeared in an instant. The child did not adjust to his sudden fall for a moment, and sat on the ground. However, since the cheese didn't raise him very high, the child didn't suffer much damage except for some pain in the buttocks.

Throwing a silver coin in front of the other party, Cheese said to the thief in a condescending manner.

"This is the reward that was promised before. Another silver coin, you'll give it to you tomorrow when you bring me the antidote. Don't think about playing tricks, you've already experienced my methods. ”

The boy ignored his still aching buttocks, quickly picked up the silver coin in front of him, blew the statue and put it to his ear. After confirming that it was indeed a genuine silver coin, he quickly stuffed the valuable coin into the depths of his clothes before he looked up at the mage and said.

"I'll be waiting for you here tomorrow with the antidote. Then he got up and ran deeper into the alley.

"Wait a minute. Looking at the child's emaciated back, Cheese's eyes narrowed imperceptibly. The mage knew that the silver coin he had given to the child would never really fall into the child's hands. He couldn't afford to protect his finances, and it wouldn't be too difficult for the gangster accomplices from earlier in the day, or the rest of the city, to snatch the silver coin from such a thin kid. Thinking of this, Cheese still stopped the other party.

"Anything else?" the boy turned to look at the mage, but judging by the hand he held on his chest, he must have been on guard against the cheese change. The slightest hint of a mage trying to get the silver coins back would make him run away without looking back, and the thief was confident that he would be able to escape the Cheese Stranger in the familiar alley.

"This is for you, the deposit for the antidote. The mage raised his hand and threw a small bag at the child, which, judging by the sound of the bag flying through the air, must have some coins inside. The thief did not rush to pick up or catch the suspicious money bag, and he also understood the reason of lack of greed.

"By the way, I haven't asked your name yet? I can't call you a boy. Cheese didn't care if the other party picked up the money bag that had fallen on the ground, he said casually.

"I don't have a name, but everyone else calls me Sparrow. The child said that in the lingua franca, the name means little sparrow. But after saying his name, Sparrow was surprised to find that Cheese was no longer where he was standing. There is not even a mage in the entire alley. He quickly touched the silver coin in his arms to see if it was still there, and was relieved after receiving the confirmation, and then he looked around carefully again, and after finding that there was indeed no one else, Sparrow carefully picked up the money bag on the ground, and without even checking the contents, he quickly disappeared into the depths of the alley with the money bag.

The sun was getting wester, and after noon Cheese returned to the place where he had been separated from Roger in the morning with some of the royal capital's specialties. Seeing that the carriage that had been parked in front of the inn had been led into the backyard, the mage knew that the matter of lodging had been settled. Pushing the door open and approaching the inn, Cheese saw Roger studying something alone on a table against the corner. He walked over and noticed that what was on the table looked like a notice.

"What are you looking at?" asked Cheese as he walked over to the table, pulled out a chair and sat down.

"Did you say you came from the Iron Castle?" Roland asked, looking up at Cheese. After building up an initial trust, Cheese told the other party about his previous experience, so Roland knew that Cheese had come here from the Iron Castle. It's just that he doesn't know what Cheese has been through at the Iron Keep.

"yes, what's wrong?" the mage frowned, and Roland's tone made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Just look at this. The old man said that the notice in front of him was pushed in front of the cheese and said.

Cheese looked down at the contents of the notice carefully, and found that this was a ban issued by the royal family of the Grey Lion Kingdom, and the general content on it could be summarized as that from now on, all individuals or groups are prohibited from going to the eastern part of the Hammer Territory and the northern part of the Black Mountain Territory, and several cities and large towns including the Iron Fort are listed, and on the back of them are written in bold font, epidemic area.
