The vague figure spoke, "Three thousand gold coins." ”
William's face was expressionless. Silently, through the crack in the iron mesh, he stuffed a magic ring into it, which contained the three thousand gold coins he had just counted.
The blurred figure stretched out his withered palm and took the magic ring away. After a few moments, the blurred figure returned the magic ring, along with an additional leather wallet containing stacks of materials.
William put it away, finished the deal, and got up and left the chamber.
Abis City, outside the entrance to the underground black market, in a quiet and dark alley.
William stepped on the noble boots, walked step by step, put his hands into his arms, and took out the cowhide wallet he had just bought.
When he took it apart and looked at it, his face was suddenly gloomy.
The wallet was full of white paper. Not a word!
At this moment, behind William, a voice came that was not salty or light: "The black market here can't buy any news of necromancers." So, they can only pit you with pieces of waste paper. ”
When William heard this, his pupils suddenly shrank and he turned around.
In the dim shadows, a figure slowly walked out, and it turned out to be a young man.
The young man said, "My name is Jack, and I have no ill intentions, I just want to ask you a question." What is the relationship between Sumera of the Nochen family and you, and why do you want to inquire about her?"
"Why am I answering this question from you?" William asked rhetorically, looking at him coldly.
Jack grinned, pulled out a sharp dagger, took two steps back, and disappeared into the darkness. He has become one with the darkness, silently.
Sensing that the young man was lurking, William's eyes narrowed.
The next moment, a faint light flashed from the Ring of the Dead, and the Red Flame Wand instantly appeared in his hand.
"Blitzkrieg!"
Suddenly, the arc flickered, and a primary lightning spell from William shot directly into the darkness, and with a 'snap', it seemed to hit something.
With a wail, Jack stumbled out. His face was pale, his body twitched from time to time, and he grinned in pain.
William stepped forward, squatted down, looked at Jack condescendingly, and asked with a smile, "A junior assassin wants to do something with me, you really think too much." ”
William said, snatched the dagger from Jack's hand, struck him in the face twice, and threatened: "Okay, tell me, who are you? Why are you following me? What do you know about Sumera? If you tell all this, I will spare your life." ”
Jack was paralyzed by William's lightning spell. He scolded directly: "I'll fuck you! Kill me, I won't tell you anything!"
William's brows furrowed: "If you don't say it, I have a way to make you speak." ”
Jack gritted his teeth.
"I'll give you one last chance. If you don't say it, I'll cut one of your tesuji first. William threatened.
Before he could finish speaking, suddenly, there was a 'boom' in his ears, and a black object the size of an egg flew from a distance and smashed into the sole of William's feet, exploding a cloud of white dust.
William's face changed suddenly.
Faintly, he seemed to see a vague shadow flickering twice in front of him, and then flashing.
He waved his sleeves violently, fanned away the white powder in front of him, and looked to the ground, where Jack, who was lying on the ground, had disappeared, as if he had been rescued.
"Sister Karenna, why didn't you kill that soul fade just now and come back to save me!" In the vast white mist, Jack's wail came from a corner.
"Shut up, you idiot!, you're going to expose our location!" a woman's voice rang out, her tone wary.
William smiled coldly.
Between the swings of the Red Flame Wand in his hand, a basin-sized fireball condensed out, instantly taking shape, and suddenly launched towards the positions of the two of them.
"Bang!"
The fireball seemed to hit the hard concrete floor and exploded, sending sparks flying in all directions.
The blow was fruitless, and William shook his head.
He silently recited the spell of the wind spell in his heart, and with a shake of the Red Flame Wand in his hand, wisps of wind blew through, blowing away all the white powder that filled the air.
A woman in tight-fitting leather armor, supporting Jack, who was paralyzed and unable to move, appeared in William's field of vision.
"Sister Karenna, we... We've been discovered!" said Jack, dumbfounded.
"I'm not blind, of course I do, you idiot!"
Karena scolded angrily: "Father asked you to come to the black market to find out the news, how did you mess with this guy?"
"I'm just looking for news! I found out that he had just bought Sumera on the black market. ”
Jack wanted to cry without tears and said, "I just want to arrest him and go back to the camp for interrogation because he is an ordinary noble young master." How did I know that he was still a magician!"
Karena rolled her eyes.
To be honest, if it hadn't happened just now, if it weren't for William still holding the Red Flame Wand in his hand, even Karena herself would have regarded William as an ordinary aristocratic young master.
And it's the kind that idlemates all day long, spends all day drinking, and has no combat effectiveness.
However, it's one thing to be blind, and whether you can admit it or not is another question.
"Your Excellency, how about we stop here?"
Karena said with a serious expression: "We don't know each other in the first place, so there's really no need to fight for our lives. If my brother has offended you just now, I apologize to you on his behalf!"
A smile appeared on the corner of William's mouth and said, "I think, we all misunderstood just now." ”
When Karena heard this, she looked strange.
William continued: "I just thought that your brother was lurking to assassinate me. That's all I did to him. Moreover, when I said that I cut his tendons, I was just threatening him and trying to get something out of his mouth. ”
After a pause, William continued: "I think we need to talk openly and honestly. ”
As he spoke, in order to show his sincerity, William also put away the Red Flame Wand.
Karenna's grim expression suddenly eased.
"Sister Karenna, don't believe him, he could be lying to us!" exclaimed Jack.
William smiled slightly, "If you think I'm lying, you can tie me up." You should believe in my sincerity, right?"
"Well, I've got a rope here, you tie your hands first, and we'll believe you!" Jack sneered, and said bluntly.
He took out a thin white rope directly from his body and threw it in front of William. He didn't believe that William would really tie his hands.
You know, if a magician has his hands tied, he can't use his wand at all, and even if he casts magic, his power will be greatly reduced.
Karena didn't speak, apparently acquiescing to what Jack meant.
When William saw this scene, he didn't say much, and directly bent down to pick up the white rope on the ground.
He pulled hard, well, although this rope is very thin, it is very tough, it should be specially made.
When William tied his hands, Karena and Jack finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"The sound of the fight just now will soon attract the patrol soldiers who come to the city. This is not the place to speak, so please come with us. Karena whispered.
William nodded.
Then, after walking around the alley, avoiding groups of patrolling soldiers, the three of them finally came to the wall of Abys.
At this time, it was already late at night, the city gate was closed, and the whole city was under martial law. If you want to get out of the city, there is only one way to get out over the wall.
Karena and Jack are both vindictive, agile, and able to do it. William, on the other hand, was a magician and could never climb over the wall.
Unless, William casts a wind magic levitation spell and flies out of the tall city walls. However, this was obviously impossible, as if it did, it would immediately attract the attention of nearby guards.
Of course, there is another way.
"You carry him!" Karena said as she glanced at the ten-meter-high wall in front of her, turning to Jack.
Jack was suddenly unhappy, "I won't carry him! He just attacked me with lightning magic, and my body is numb now." ”
Karena glared at Jack fiercely, "You don't carry it, do you want me to carry it?"
Jack laughed dryly: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to Sister Karenna once." ”
As he spoke, Jack leaned down and said to William behind him, "Jump up." ”
William was silent.
