Chapter 509: Buying Intelligence
"Does this have anything to do with Sylvia's invitation to me to the kingdom of Mares?" Leo frowned after reading the map, and asked in his heart.
Of course, he didn't think that Berenchena would send such a map for no reason, and the only thing he could remember about it was Sylvia's invitation to him.
If it had been before, Leo might have regarded this Epluxe Forest as a mythical story, but after seeing so many different worlds formed by subspace debris, Leo's vision was different, which also made him guess that the Epluxe Forest was actually a hidden world composed of subspace debris, but this world was created by the gods.
"Is there anything else she has to say about this thing?" asked Leo after folding the map and looking at the delivery person who hadn't left yet.
The delivery man hurriedly replied, "The lady said that this is only the first gift, and if she is sure that Clumber is dead, she will send another big gift." ”
Leo waved his hand to signal that he could leave, but before the delivery man left, Leo noticed that the man's eyes looked at the triangle on the table from time to time, so he stopped him again, and then picked up the triangle and asked, "Have you seen this thing before?"
The man hesitated slightly, as if he was reluctant to tell the secret in his heart, but under the invisible pressure transmitted by Leo, he finally said truthfully: "I used to live on the edge of the Guga Desert, and I would buy some items from the Guga ruins that I picked up, most of which were just broken clay pots or ruin bricks with special imprints. Once I went to the desert to find a new source of goods, and accidentally broke into an ancient tomb, the ancient tomb is very beautiful, but there is nothing, the whole ancient tomb only has a stone door, the stone door is engraved with the pattern of the key, the key is ......", he pointed to the triangle in Leo's hand, and said, "It is very similar to this thing." ”
Leo didn't fully believe what this man said, because this person obviously mixed a lot of lies into the truth, such as the so-called begging for a living must be a tomb robber, and the ancient tomb was not anything, which was obviously ridiculously false.
But there is also some truth mixed in with these falsehoods, that is, the tomb has a stone door, and the stone door needs a triangular key to open.
Thinking of this, Leo handed over the triangle in his hand and said, "Take a closer look to see if it's the same as the stone door key you said?"
The man hesitated, not knowing if he should take the thing.
Leo said in a deep voice, "Don't tell me, you don't know anything about the shape of the key for that stone gate!"
As a tomb robber, since he has discovered an ancient tomb and found that the ancient tomb has a stone door, then he will 100% guess that there must be a lot of treasure hidden behind the stone door, and he must want to open the stone door, and making a key has naturally become their first choice, so he must have carefully measured the size and shape of the stone door key, and even copied one according to the measurement results, so that he should also know the size of the key well.
This man knew that unless he didn't want to do things around Berenchena anymore, he would definitely not be able to fool around now.
So after a little hesitation, he still took the triangle over, put it in his hand and looked through it carefully, and returned it to Leo after a while, saying, "I don't know if this is the key to the stone door of the ruins, but the size and shape are all about the same." ”
"Where is that ruin in the Guga Desert?" asked Leo after taking the triangle.
"In the Valley of the Kings. The man immediately replied, adding, "But I can't describe the exact location, but I know how to get there." However, last year's earthquake occurred on the edge of the Valley of the Kings, and many tombs in the Valley of the Kings collapsed and damaged, and the ruins should have been buried underneath, and it may be difficult to dig them out. ”
After hearing the man's words, Leo frowned slightly, and then let him go.
After the man left, Leo picked up the triangle and looked at it, while his mind thought about the life of Crumber, the shadow of the god.
Careful analysis of the relevant information is not difficult to find that although Clumber's methods of doing things have always been very ruthless, as long as he can achieve the goal, he will act recklessly and unscrupulously, but no matter how excessive he is when he does things in the early stage, he will not cause a lot of harm to ordinary people, let alone directly oppose the nobles of the world in the world.
And he had such a huge transformation after a mission, and that mission happened to be in the desert kingdom of Saville, where the Guga Desert is located.
Speaking of which, this record is too little, and the recorder only treats it as an ordinary mission record, if Leo does not have the intention to check it, I am afraid it is difficult to see that the real transformation point of Clumber is here, Clumber may also enter the ruins, and find something, and let the key into the blood.
However, all this was still speculation, and he could not make any more useful inferences without further evidence.
Later, Leo did not stay in the apartment for a few days, but left the apartment to go to the factory, personally presided over the repair of the furnace and other matters, and arranged the management and operation of the group after he left the Kingdom of England for the Minsk mainland, and he also took the time to go to the black market, one to get new books and materials about the Moisan continent, but to rejuvenate the teacher and ask the guilt.
Of course, the black market knew that they had leaked Leo's identity, so in the face of Leo's accountability, they readily admitted their mistakes and expressed their willingness to compensate Leo.
As for the compensation on the black market, it turned out to be the recipe and refining method of the special bullet that Leo wanted to know for a long time, and it was not a special bullet, but a series of special bullets, some of which seemed to be very powerful, but had a strong purpose, such as wolves, human vampires, and some special donations.
Leo had to admit that he was very satisfied with this compensation, it was completely able to offset the mistakes made by the black market, and he was not easy to pursue, but before leaving, he inquired about the news that he was able to refine wizard healing potions sold to those people and strength, and how many people bought other information about his strength.
However, from the mouth of the black market manager, the news that Leo got surprised him a little, a total of more than thirty forces bought the news that he was a wizard healing potion refiner, but only two forces bought him other news, one of these two forces is an acquaintance of Leo, that is, the Night's Watch organization, and the other force is a little unfamiliar, it is a strange force called the son of the mountain in the small country of Panil.
Saying that the Son of the Mountain is unfamiliar is not that Leo has not heard of this name, but because this force rarely goes out of Panier, and there is not much information about their forces, Leo has seen some information about this force in the books of Old Man Rembrandt, and knows that this force has a pure armed force similar to the Night Watch, which is responsible for dealing with some paranormal things.
However, what puzzled Leo was why this son of the mountain would spend a lot of money to buy information about him.
According to the explanation of the black market manager, Leo knew that his other information, especially some information on strength and past experience, was marked at an extremely high price, which was almost comparable to the price of intelligence information of the world leaders of the world.
If the son of the mountain was also refining the wizard's healing potion for Leo's hands, Leo thought it was reasonable, but the black market manager told him that the other party bought his information before the wizard's healing potion information, which means that the other party came to him in the first place.
"Give me a copy of the information about the son of the mountain. When Leo learned about this, he immediately asked the black market administrators.
The black market manager cautiously replied: "I'm sorry, Mr. Leo, although the black market has the information of the son of the mountain, it is not in my black market, but in the Mozambian continent, if you want to buy it, you can only go to the Mozambian continent to buy it, just like the people of the son of the mountain bought your information after they came to the Inge Kingdom." ”
Leo was stunned for a moment and asked, "Are you saying that the person who bought my information from the Son of the Mountain is still in the Kingdom of Inge?"
"Yes. The black market manager nodded, but did not elaborate, but smiled apologetically and said, "You want their information, you need to pay a sum of money to buy it." ”
Seeing the black market manager's appearance of asking for money, Leo felt a little crying and laughing, but instead of arguing with the black market manager, he took out a cash check and paid the fee.
The black market manager carefully put away the check, then turned around and entered a room, and after a while, he took out a briefcase, handed it to Leo, and said: "The son of the mountain who bought your information from me is the deputy head of the Panier Mission, and is now receiving hospitality from the royal family and parliament in the national capital to discuss the formation of an alliance, which contains all his information, but this information is from three years ago, and I don't know if he has any other changes now." ”
After Leo took the information, he didn't open it on the spot, but left the black market, and only after returning to the apartment did he take out the information and read it carefully.
This son of the mountain is named Pasa, a native of Panir, and his background is not ordinary, he is a member of Panil's old political family Gucalan, called the father of the nation by Panir, and Diga Gucalan, who became the great liberator of the entire Moisan continent, is from this family, so this family has a very special status in the Moisan continent.
At a very young age, Pasa Gukaran was brought up in the Church of the Lords of the Sky according to the rules, and when he became an adult, he left the Church of the Lords of the Sky and joined the Order of the Children of the Mountain to the present day.
Pasa Gucalan's experience is very transparent, the information is trivial and detailed, and even the history of Pasa Gukaran's illness is recorded in it.
It's just that after reading this detailed information, Leo's doubts in his heart were not only not solved, but deepened.
Because no matter how you look at it, he doesn't have any communication with this Passa Gucalan, but why would the other party come to the black market to buy information related to him when he led the mission to the Kingdom of England to hold an important meeting, and it is even possible that this person has secretly spied on him, otherwise why would he come to the black market of Port Set to buy materials, instead of buying materials directly on the black market in the national capital?
Thinking of this, Leo felt more and more that he should go to the capital of the country before going to the Minsk continent, and solve the matter of the Prince of Wales by the way.
"Housekeeper, help me book a ticket to Canary Castle in Walesshire. Once Leo had made his decision, he opened the door and shouted downstairs.
At the same time that Leo instructed the housekeeper to book a ticket to Walshire, an uninvited guest came to Nelson Matthew's house, this person is also from the Matthew family, named Wilson Matthew, Nelson's cousin, but compared to the unappreciated Nelson, Wilson is a talent that the Matthew family focuses on cultivating.
When Wilson was very young, he was sent to the royal family's private academy to be trained, and he was a very thorough royal faction, and this time he replaced the previous batch of special bureau agents and was stationed in the special bureau port branch to cultivate royal power.
He was much more cautious than the previous group, and before he left, he wrote a letter to Nelson Matthew, firstly, to get Nelson to come forward to reconcile the previous conflict between the Prince of Wales and Leo, and secondly, to ask Nelson Matthew for help, wanting to borrow the Nelsons' prestige in Port Set to help him gain a foothold in the Special Bureau.
If the uninformed person saw the sincere letter sent by Wilson, he must think that this person is a decent person with a sincere attitude, but Nelson knows very well that his cousin is a bad embryo, and he has bullied those brothers and sisters who are inferior to him in strength and background when he was in the family, but because he is good at disguise, he can perfectly disguise himself as a good brother and good son in front of the elders, so that he not only does not receive any punishment, but is loved by the elders of the family.
In fact, now Nelson also understands that the family elders did not fail to see Wilson's personality, but they thought that Wilson's approach was in line with their hearts and that Wilson had done a lot, so they turned a blind eye, and because of this, Nelson did not have the slightest emotion for the current Matthew family.
Because the royal family regained the Poseidon Scepter, the royal family showed signs of re-emergence, so the Matthew family, as a side family of royal blood, would naturally stand on the side of the royal family, and Nelson was unwilling to involve himself in the dispute over these rights, so he did not get in touch with the family at all, and did not rely on the family's power and prestige in some matters.
It's just that there are some things that he can't avoid if he wants to, and when he receives Wilson's letter with the family stamp, he knows that he will inevitably get involved in something he doesn't want to get involved in.
