Elias calmed himself down and stood up. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info"We have to decide, if the lumberyard is their stronghold, then we'd better preempt them before they act. ”

"Are you going to raid the lumberyard?" Neumann looked ready to gather his troops.

"No, we can't be sure if they have eyeliner in the city, and we can't make too much noise, that would just startle the snakes. ”

"And what are you going to do?"

"First of all, I need their exact number and information about the terrain around the lumberyard, and it would be unwise to launch a raid without being clear. Then, we have to figure out the exact location of the followers of Osiris, who is the biggest threat to us. If possible, I would also like information on their current activities. Elias spoke his mind.

Neumann nodded, "I'll investigate." ”

"I ...... How can I help?" Maffeo stood up, and it was not a good gesture to sit down in his chair at this moment.

"All we want is an answer, but we don't have to risk it. Elias said.

"I'm not going to leave Orsente like this. Maffeo seemed to understand Elias's words.

"Remember, once you've chosen a side, then you're going to have a hard time getting out of it. Elias warned.

"I'm just a guy who travels around, and no one can limit me. Although I will help you, I must make it clear that I will never be on the same side as your nobles, and I will act only for my conscience. Maffeo said categorically.

"Of course, I won't tell the powerful about you, if you really want to help us. ”

I couldn't think of a better answer. ”

Now that the goal has been decided, Maffeo and Neumann go their separate ways to do what they are supposed to do. If it was unclear about the strength of the other party, Maffeo felt the need to seek Adrian's help. Regardless, his youthful crew would have been good helpers, though he knew casualties were inevitable. But in order to get out of here as soon as possible, solving things is the most important thing.

So he first went to the small corner of the city before retrieving his weapon, and then tried his best to disguise his greatsword as if it were a vessel for spiritualism, before Maffeo headed for the Western End. He could only pray that the guards would not mistake themselves for some kind of witchcraft at this time, and that he would not want to be burned at the stake rather than imprisoned.

Fortunately, he didn't encounter too many obstacles, I don't know if it was the reason why Elias gave the order, the guards almost subconsciously avoided their eyes after seeing Maffeo, which was a convenience for Maffeo. But as soon as Maffeo turned his back to them, their chatter would be heard, and without looking back, Maffeo knew that their eyes were full of vigilance.

When Maffeo arrived at the stronghold in the West End, Sebastian was arguing with Kohler, who had arrived, and poor Ludwig had to sit silently, not daring to say anything. Walter, the only one who isn't human, is just licking his paws, and he has no interest in the meaningless bickering of humans. "Hey, what's going on?" Maffeo asked, dissatisfied with their current situation.

"I'm sorry, Maffeo, we're at odds with each other. Kohler was quite straightforward.

"God, Kohler, put away your non-business. Sebastian pointed at Maffeo. "He didn't hesitate to help you save the vineyard from Captain Damon's raids, and although the results were a bit unexpected, you shouldn't rush Adrian to get out of here as soon as possible. ”

"Do you know what is going on in Orsente? We can't stay here forever, we're going to be caught up in this maelstrom. ”

"Oh, you're afraid of being drawn into this maelstrom, so why are you joining us again?"

"I'm just ......"

"Alright, that's enough, that's enough, guys!" Maffeo couldn't stand their bickering any longer. "What are you doing? Do you want to make a difference in such a meaningless matter? Well, then each of you takes a scimitar and sees who cuts each other's throat first, I think it's more suitable for you!"

"I'm sorry, Maffeo. Sebastian finally held down his decibels, but it was clear that he was still angry. As for Kohler, he didn't want to quarrel with Sebastian, but after being attacked by some foul language from the other party, it was difficult for him to keep his original calm.

"This matter will be resolved very quickly. Maffeo poured himself a glass of cold water. "I've met Elias. ”

"What? Are you crazy? Didn't they arrest you?" Sebastian was incredulous, and to do so was a self-defeating act.

Maffeo smiled bitterly, "Yes, thank you for meeting that black market profiteer, Neumann." ”

"What do you mean?"

"To me, he's more of Elias's assistant than a profiteer counting money on the black market. That's right, I met him in the barracks, and he was surprised that he had the right to give orders to the soldiers at will?" Maffeo drank the glass of cold water, observing Sebastian's expression change.

Sebastian's expression changed in the next few seconds, and he didn't expect that Neumann, who had made many trades with him, would be an assistant to the captain of the guard, Elias. He was so good at disguising himself that if it weren't for Maffeo's personal confirmation, he would still think that Neumann was nothing more than a profiteer in the black market that never saw the light of day. "I didn't expect that. ”

Kohler obviously wouldn't let go of such an opportunity, "Do you hear that? Even the people you traded with can't believe it, what advantage do you have to stay in Aucent?"

"Shut up, Kohler, I don't want to keep arguing. Sebastian waved his hand in annoyance.

"They're going to do something, and that's going to be the key to solving the problem. Maffeo relayed Elias's decision they had made. "So I need your help, and we've confirmed that they're located in the eastern lumberyards. But we can't confirm their strength, so if you don't know the strength of the other party, it will be safer for you to join. ”

"You mean to put the crew of the Black Shark in battle?"

"That's right, if the strength of the other side is not strong, then I think the battle can be solved with the Imperial Army. Maffeo nodded, he certainly didn't want to let Adrian's rebuilt capital squander like this. Whether it's money, weapons, or even the Black Shark, it's far less important than life. But if you keep the hellish rules like that, you'll die in a hurry before being hacked to death by the other party.

"I'll go and inform Adrian, but I can't guarantee that he'll help. Sebastian replied.

"It's okay, I'm sure if it were him, he wouldn't have used arguments to solve problems like the two of you. Maffeo put down his glass, got up and whistled, and Walter obediently followed him out the door. It seemed to be a habit for him to take Walter with him now, and it made him feel at ease anyway.
