Chapter Ninety-Six

According to Satan's introduction, the Knight of Parn lived in the western part of the city of Quintah. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoIt is a settlement of settled adventurers, low-level nobles and low-level mages, these people generally have some skills or connections, and they have no worries about food and clothing, but it is not easy to climb further. In earthly parlance, the so-called "middle class".

The security in Xicheng District is good, there are guards patrolling, and there are no pickpockets or homeless people in sight. Compared to the eastern part of the city where they entered, the situation was much better.

The address of the knight of Paan is Dendrobium Lan Street in Xicheng District, and there is no concept of "house number" in this world, so the exact address cannot be said very clearly.

Of course, this is not difficult for the old qualified adventurer, Lei has always believed in the practice of "the road is in the mouth", so he casually found a guard who looked more kind, took out two silver coins, and said with a smile: "This diligent patrolman, may I invite you to a drink?"

The guard stopped, looked at the silver coin, and replied with a smile: "You can buy a bottle of wine for this price - do you want to know any news? I am just an ordinary soldier, and I don't know anything special." ”

Ray handed him the silver coin: "I have a lucky friend who has a job in the territory of a noble lord. That old man practiced martial arts all day long, and he had no intention of doing government affairs, and wanted to find someone who could help him take care of his chores. My friend recommended a knight named Parn who lived here. Do you know where he lives?"

The guard was stunned for a moment, and sighed regretfully: "You are late, the knight of Pahn has already died." ”

"Ahh

The guard hesitated for a moment, looked left and right, and whispered, "It's inconvenient for me to say this, you can go directly to his house and ask." His house is very recognizable, with two rows of calendula planted in front of the door. ”

After saying that, he turned and walked away, not wanting to stop even for a moment.

Ray frowned secretly, but his face remained silent, and he followed the guard's instructions to find the home of the knight of Parn.

At the same time, Sui Xiong's true body, who was far away in the four towns in the northwest, found Satan who was busy.

"What?!Parn is dead?!This can't be!" Satan exclaimed, "He's in the prime of life, and he's a high-ranking warrior, there's no reason why he's suddenly dead!"

"I'm on the track and will know the results soon. ”

Satan lowered his head and hooded the anger on his face: "Your Majesty, if he is killed by someone, please allow me to take a leave of absence for a while to avenge him!"

"Oh, you have a good relationship with him?"

"When I was down, he was the one who helped me. Satan said, "Without his help, I might not have been able to leave the city alive." At that time, I was penniless, not to mention the cost of travel, and even eating was a problem. He helped me with my life, put me in touch with a group of adventurers who were determined to leave the Mystic Tower Federation, and forged some necessary documents...... With his help, I was able to leave safely. Later, I first went to live in the Principality of Thunder for a while, then took a boat to the Gold Coin Federation, and finally came to the Four Towns in the Northwest. ”

Sui Xiong nodded slightly: "It seems that this person is quite good?"

"Yes, the Knight of Parn is a nobleman who believes in the god of knights. He insisted on mercy and justice, was very methodical, was keen to help those who were really in trouble, was quite prestigious in the city of Jinta, and often mediated conflicts between the various forces of the middle and lower classes, and was a respected gentleman. ”

Sui Xiong sighed secretly, regretting that such a talent died young.

By the time he was in contact with Satan, Ray had already followed the guards' instructions and found the home of the knight of Parn.

It was a pretty little bungalow, and it was obvious that the owner should have good financial resources. The two rows of calendula in front of the door emit a warm golden glow in the sun, making people feel warm in their hearts when they look at it.

But if you look closely, you can see that the house has been around for a long time, and many places need to be repaired, perhaps the owner's current financial situation is not ideal.

Suddenly, Ray's brow furrowed, and his gaze fell on an inconspicuous mark in the corner of the wall.

It was a small pit with a small protrusion in the middle, which at first glance seemed unremarkable, but to his combat expert, it was a little shocking.

It's a trail of a crossbow, and it's a bolt that has been shot completely into the wall!

Although the bolts are not very long, the force required to shoot a bolt completely into a wooden wall is extraordinary. It is definitely not an ordinary crossbow that can do this, but a specially made heavy crossbow.

This heavy crossbow can easily shoot through the knight's full body armor, and may not be able to stop it even with a shield. As long as you have a period of training, even a rookie who has just entered the industry can use it to kill powerful fighters. And with the right enchantment on the crossbow or crossbow bolt, it can also shoot through the powerful mage's talisman spell and kill it in one hit.

Not only is it expensive, but its production and transportation are also strictly regulated. Ray remembers that when he was a prince, he had only seen a few in the heavily guarded arsenal. Later, one of them left an unforgettable impression on him......

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid there is really something wrong with the death of Knight Parn. He quietly reported his findings to Sui Xiong through psychic connection.

Sui Xiong pondered for a moment and said, "No matter what the problem is, since we have already come, we always have to meet with his family." I'll talk to his family about the rest. ”

Ray nodded, led Steele to the door, and only knocked on the door, and the closed door opened.

"What are you doing here again! The agreed time for repayment hasn't come yet!"

With an angry roar, a red-haired girl walked out with a long sword in hand.

It was evident that she was ready to fight the enemy, but it was not her enemy who came.

"Uh...... Sorry, I recognized the wrong person. Seeing two visitors whom she did not know at all, the girl suddenly realized that she had made a mistake, and hurriedly inserted her long sword back into its scabbard, and made a big red face herself.

Lei smiled slightly, and made a noble salute in an impeccable and elegant posture: "Please don't mind, no knight will be angry with a beautiful young lady like you. ”

The girl's face suddenly turned even redder.

"My name is Ray and she's my friend Steele. We have been commissioned by the sorcerer Mr. Satan to invite the Knight of Parn to the Pioneer Territory as a political officer. Ray smiled and asked knowingly, "Is this the home of the Knight of Parn?"

The girl was stunned, and she stared blankly at the smiling Ray and Steele, confirming their identities from the aristocratic manners they had displayed that only had been specially trained.

However, tears welled up in her eyes.

β€œ...... My father is no longer alive. She tried to make herself look stronger, so that her voice would not tremble, and she tried harder to hold back the tears and not let it fall, "I am very sorry for disappointing your kindness!"

Ray, pretending to have just learned the news, snorted in surprise and asked, "Knight Parn has died?" But Mr. Satan has said that he is a brilliant knight. Although he usually copied and taught for a living, his martial arts were not in any way below meβ€”forgive me, I hardly imagine a knight like me dying in his forties...... May I venture to ask, did he die of illness or injury?"

The girl was silent for a long time, then lowered her head and whispered, "This has nothing to do with you, in short, my father has died, and it is impossible to go to your territory as a political officer, please go back." ”

Ray quietly winked, and Steele immediately answered: "Then we have one more thing to do." Mr. Satan was greatly favored by the Knight of Parn back then, and he is doing well now, but he is too busy with work to be separated. Knowing that we were coming to visit the Knight of Parn, he prepared a gift for us to bring along the way. ”

Her words successfully attracted the attention of the girl, and the girl waved her hand again and again: "No gifts, no gifts, father helps others, never reciprocate!"

"You're embarrassing us. Steele smiled softly, with a generous demeanor, like a spring breeze, which made the man feel good, "Mr. Satan has a very high status in the territory, and we are often taken care of by him. We should help him do what he entrusts. It's just a gift, and please don't turn away the kindness that has come from thousands of miles, okay?"

Although it was an inquiring tone, the gentle temperament she exuded made it difficult to refuse her plea.

Whether it is a man or a woman, as long as she is not a hard-hearted old Jianghu, in the face of such a her, don't want to say anything about refusal.

The girl, of course, couldn't, and after a moment's hesitation, she invited Ray and Steele in.

Then, in a hurry, the door was shut, and the latch was dropped.

"Huh, is the security in this city very bad, and you have to lock the doors in broad daylight?" Lei Shi showed surprise.

The girl smiled a little awkwardly and did not answer.

It can be seen that she doesn't want to mention some issues.

The two followed the girl into the door, and before they could sit down, a crisp voice came from upstairs: "Sister, is the annoying guest gone?"

The girl laughed more and more embarrassed, and hurriedly apologized to Ray and Steele.

Of course, they wouldn't mind this kind of thing, and the embarrassment was resolved with a burst of laughter.

Then they met two men coming down from the upper floors, Teague, the wife of the knight of Parn, and his second daughter, Ness.

As for Liv, the eldest daughter of the Knight of Parn, of course, it was this somewhat reckless red-haired girl.

Mrs. Tigue has distinctly elven characteristics, presumably an elf-human hybrid - commonly known as a half-elf. The eldest daughter, Liv, is obviously of human blood and has no elven features, while the second daughter, Niss, bears some resemblance to her mother, with slightly pointed ears and silver hair that seems to glow.

It can be seen that the source of their bloodline should be a relatively rare moon elf.

After some pleasantries, Ray took out the space bag and took out the "Mr. Satan's Gift".

It was a dazzlingly beautiful set of porcelain, and a pack of precious stones.
