202. Reynoldsen's showdown
After overinjecting the frightened Rice Bucket Marco with a sedative and relaxing effect that is usually used against girls who refuse to give in, the frightened Rice Bucket Marco finally told what he had seen - a beautiful little girl, just snorting softly, like a storm blowing away leaves, swept a large area of (self-proclaimed) heroes who could fight and kill. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Injected with sedative drugs, Marco is very compliant and has a noticeable improvement in memory. Under the constant questioning of Lucar and the young man, he even described Sonya's facial features and clothing in detail.
Looking at the young man's dark face, Lucar knew that he was in big trouble this time.
"It's a big problem. The young man's tone was unusually heavy.
"I've seen that uniform, it's the uniform of a senior officer in the Void Fleet. If I'm not mistaken, it must be the legendary powerhouse of the Void Fleet. It seems that Alfrin's parents are finally angry. ”
"That legendary powerhouse is the parent of Alflyn's deputy gang leader?" asked the middle-level cadre who brought the rice bucket Marco in horror. He didn't know Alfrin's exact identity, only that it was a powerful girl who could make old thieves want to learn from her in terms of thief skills.
"It's worse than that!" Lucar's face was as pale as a dead man, and tears were already welling up in his vicious eyes.
"Alfrin's parents, that's amazing!" said to Lucar with a look of jealousy on the young man's face, "You have been hiding outside the city for the past few days, and told the gang not to cause trouble. I want to survive the harvest festival, and the anger of the parents should be gone. After all, Alfrin joined the gang on her own initiative, not a victim. ”
"Understood, understood!" Lucar agreed without bothering to wipe the sweat from his head.
Completely unaware that her actions had seriously interfered with the normal production and business activities of a dynamic social group, Sonia was looking at Reynoldson who appeared in front of her again with surprised eyes.
After the efforts of a group of "enthusiastic people", the thin old man, who was once dirty and even a mouse did not want to approach, is now wearing a silk pajamas that is obviously much larger, holding a book of poems written in ancient characters like a dog, shaking his head and reciting.
This really surprised Sonya. You must know that although the accent of the lingua franca of Coronia has not changed for thousands of years, in fact, because of the implementation of compulsory education in Coronia, the complex and difficult ancient scripts are basically no longer taught to children in school, but instead use the simple writing system compiled and summarized by a famous scholar during the maternal plane.
After thousands of years of popularization and popularization, the literacy rate of simple script in Coronia is as high as 9 out of 9. On the other hand, in the mother plane, it was an ancient script that flourished for a while, and it has become a script that only some mages and scholars who like to study ancient texts can master.
And Lynoldson was able to read ancient characters aloud with the earth-shattering Diao silk attribute that he showed in his first appearance, which surprised Isonia.
"Don't be surprised, little girl. If you live to be my age and have plenty of time to do research, you can also learn ancient writing. Reynoldson noticed Sonya's surprise and spoke to her in a very gentle and elegant tone.
"To hell with it, you old liar!" Esther snatched the book of poems from Reynaldson's hand, tore off one of the pages, pointed to the ornate ancient text on it, and demanded that Reynald read it out.
Reynoldson had an offended look on his wrinkled old face, then his eyes flickered, he glanced at the page number of the torn page, and then began to read the ancient words on the page in a tone of voice.
"You've used this trick to deceive the young and ignorant girl! Unfortunately, it's all an old-fashioned trick. Esther keenly observed Reynoldsson's previous redundant actions, and while directly demolishing him, he also secretly admired this old guy in his heart.
Esther found that in order to fit a big-tailed wolf in front of people, the old fellow had memorized an entire book of ancient poetry by page number.
He reached out and tore a few more pages from the book, then tore off the numbered corners.
When he pushed the pages in front of Reynoldsen, the old man's face suddenly became very ugly, and he showed a look of grief.
"Can't you respect the old man and respect the virtuous? You have to debunk me! Do you know that fifty years ago, in order to get my hands on that damn female Wenqing, I spent a little effort memorizing these lace poems that make people vomit?"
Esther felt really embarrassed. It was hard for him to imagine what an unruly and wonderful past this old man had. But in order to chase a female literary youth, he was willing to spend effort to memorize a whole collection of poems, and I didn't expect that Mr. Reynoldsen was still a lover!
"Come on, Uncle Reynoldsson, tell me why people like you hide in the garbage, and is there something you haven't told us?"
Reynoldson narrowed his small eyes and rolled his eyeballs. He found out that Esther was definitely not a deceitful lord and had to admit it. In fact, there are five tough and perverted guys seeking revenge against him. Even after he hid in the garbage dump near Colombo, the enemies still did not let him go, and searched every garbage dump relentlessly. And for special reasons, he couldn't escape Colombo and had to participate in the White Tower Climbing Competition. So the year has been quite miserable.
Easter, of course, knew that he was telling the truth, and he knew that Reynoldson could definitely be said to be an unstable factor. Secretly, Esther even had the idea of leaving Reynoldson behind, because he had too many shady things to do in this Climbing the White Tower Competition, and it was really uneasy for him to keep an uncontrollable unstable factor like Reynoldsson. And what makes him most worried is actually Reynoldsson's strength. Using his extraordinary perception, Esther can already make a perfect judgment on the strength of creatures below the legendary level. But for Reynoldson, he found that no matter how hard he tried to observe the other party, the other party was like a black hole devouring light, and there was no feedback back a trace of information.
Just as he was deliberating with the wording of how to kick Reynoldson out of the team (the opponent was likely to be extremely strong, and he didn't want to risk a flip in the face), Reynoldson made a request to talk to him alone.
In the silent enchantment under Mora Gotbu, East quietly looked at Reynoldson on the other side. The old man's face was no longer the usual obscenity and cynicism, and was replaced by a very interested expression.
Reynoldsen looked left and right at Easter, which made Easter more vigilant for a while, and even thought that the other party wanted to do something wrong. It wasn't until Esther could barely resist turning into an attack that Reynoldsen said to him in a very skeptical tone, "Little one, I can't see what you are! Tell me, what are you doing in Coronia?"
Suppressing the shock in his heart, Esther replied without showing weakness: "Are you very confused? I can't see what you are? I even suspect that your appearance is disguised." ”
"No, that's exactly what I look like. According to the laws of nature, this is what I am like at my age. But you're different, you look like a pretty girl, but what is it? Don't deny it, I can smell that you're not right, and girls don't behave like you. I think you're a male animal. But strangely, this is neither the ability to change form nor illusion, just like you were born a girl. ”
"Everyone has secrets. All I can say is that it was an accident that I became the way I am. Actually, I'm just an ordinary person, an ordinary person who grew up with Sonya. My situation is not a secret to many people. ”
"An ordinary boy? But now it's not ordinary at all. Don't you realize it yourself? A mighty team has gathered around you. You, your wife, your current lover, bald brother and sister, tree planting girl. It's all tough fighting. I hope that with the help of your team's combat power, you can do something for me in the process of this Climbing the White Tower Competition. Reynoldson smiled treacherously and told his true purpose. "Don't blame the cripple, he's a poor man, and I'm really his cousin. To be honest, it was my idea to even participate in the White Tower Climb at the Seawolf Inn. Because I really need a couple of good helpers. ”
"What do you want to do? Or what do you want us to do for you? I'm hard to fool and you'd better not try. ”
"In this competition, I mainly want your help with two things. The first is to avenge the lame Richard's family. My cousin's entire family had died twelve years earlier in the battle for the succession of the Pervas family, leaving only one offspring, Richard the Cripple, and even he himself lost a leg. The object of my revenge this time is Prague, the eldest son of Juniels. It is said that because his younger brother is getting better and better in the family, he is worried about his heir position. This time in the White Tower Competition, he plans to enter a secret realm within the White Tower and seek a way to become a legendary powerhouse. ”
"It's impossible, we're not going to challenge a duke, that's something we can't fight. ”
"Really?" Reynoldson grimned as if that was who he was.
"So in the early hours of this morning, who left a ransom letter in one of the Duke's mansions?"
"You're following me?" Esther was shocked, he didn't expect that his and Maura Gault's actions would not escape the old man's surveillance.
"I just saw you following the carriage of that great beauty. Don't take it too seriously. After all, I'm also a very busy person, how can I have so much time to spy on you. Reynoldson waved his hand, indicating that Esther was just unlucky and happened to be met by him.
"Then again, you've done a great job. Helena is not easy to deal with, and you have taken her away without a word. Do you know what a crazy bidding upsurge it would be to bring her to the slave market for auction? In a slave auction, slave girls are all undressed, and how much can be sold for tickets alone?"
"Ahem, ahem!" Esther had to cough twice to stop Reynolds' god from unfolding.
"Well, I admit that we have the possibility of helping each other against the Duke of Pervas. But how can you make me believe you, what if you betray us?"
"After listening to the second thing, if you are still willing to help, I will naturally have a way to make you believe me. Reynoldsen, whose skin may be thicker than the walls of Kollenburg, said this, with a rare look of embarrassment.
