Chapter 521: Approaching the Border

readx;

In a room upstairs in the hotel, a fat man dressed as a businessman was lightly closing the window with a gap, frowning and turning to look at his companions: "These young people seem to be in good shape." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"So what's the matter?" another short, stout middle-aged man said disapprerovingly, "Anyway, the rooms are all booked by us, and there is no place to live, so they can't sleep on the street, right?" ā€

"The problem is that the grain truck is almost here, and I'm worried that something will happen. The fat man thought for a moment: "Let's wait until they leave." ā€

The middle-aged man laughed: "No, why are you getting less and less courageous? A few young people are just a few young people, how much wind and waves can they set off?"

The fat man waved his hand: "There is no harm in being careful, the life and death of a few of us are small, and if we break the affairs of adults, then there will be no redemption." ā€

At this time, a man came up and knocked on the door, and asked whether he would go down to eat dinner or send it to the room, and the fat man was about to speak, but the companion next to him had already preemptively said, "No need to send it, let's go down." ā€

The guy agreed, and ran downstairs to prepare, and the fat man in the room looked at his companion dissatisfied: "What are you going to do?"

"Didn't you say to be careful? Of course, you have to take a closer look, and if they don't want to go, we can't tell us what we have to do. The middle-aged man stood up: "There are still about two hours, and if you let the grain cart move forward, you won't be able to do it." ā€

The fat man thought about it for a while, nodded, agreed, and the two walked out of the room together.

At this time, Dio and his party were already sitting on the seats, the table in the hotel was not large, Anthony and Sophia were at one table, and Dio, Raymond, Gordon and Laura were sitting at another table.

Although the size of the hotel is not very good, but the efficiency is not bad, it does not take long, the food is served, of course, there will be no delicacies here, just some simple dishes and coarse bread, the only commendable thing is the bowl of thick broth in front of each person, the milky white soup is sprinkled with layers of finely minced vegetables, the tangy aroma of the meat is mixed with a few traces of fresh taste, so that the Dio people can't help but have a great appetite.

There was a light sound at the stairs, Dio and a few people turned their heads to look, a fat man and a short middle-aged man walked down the stairs, after Dio and others were promoted to Wuzun, their eyesight naturally increased a lot, and they could see at a glance that the strength of these two people was not weak, but a few people did not feel surprised, and quickly took their eyes back, this is not the kind of remote place in the Principality of Fiji, and it is normal to meet a few strong people with good strength on the road.

Dio and the others chatted quietly while eating, the topic was nothing more than the front-line affairs, this aspect is naturally Anthony has more right to speak, the current battle situation has been much more intense than at the beginning, although until now the Lionheart Empire and the Moon Shadow Empire have been testing each other, and no large-scale conflict has broken out, but with the increase in the number of casualties, the anger of the two sides has become more and more intense, and local small-scale conflicts are almost always happening.

This is unavoidable, war will inevitably kill people, and everyone will have good brothers and friends, so the hatred between the two sides will gradually increase as the war continues.

The fat man and the middle-aged man in the corner glanced at each other, and knew in their hearts, these young people turned out to be on the front line of the battlefield, presumably thinking that their strength was good and they could make a difference on the battlefield.

Dio was full of food and drink, ready to rest for a while and leave the town, after all, it is not very simple to find a suitable place to sleep in the wilderness, you need to arrange it in advance, it is early autumn, although it is not cold, but at least find a shelter from the wind, if the conditions allow, no one will refuse to let themselves sleep more comfortably.

At this time, a young man hurriedly walked in outside the hotel, looking like a dusty man seemed to have traveled a long way, the young man's eyes swept away, and when he saw Dio, he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes stayed on the faces of Sophia's girls for a few seconds, although the young man concealed it well, but Dio still saw the fleeting greed in his eyes.

Dio frowned, but he didn't have a seizure, after all, the other party didn't make a move with a real surname, and Sophia's posture was too good, and it was normal to attract the attention of others, which was understandable.

It was evening now, the sunset had not yet completely set below the horizon, and there was still residual warmth in the air, and the young man's shirt was open at will, revealing the pale blue coat and strong chest inside, Anthony's gaze inadvertently swept over the young man's chest, and the next moment, it froze there, and his brows were slightly wrinkled, as if he was recalling something.

By this time, the young man had already walked over to the fat man and sat down, and began to talk softly, without looking at the others again.

"Dude. Anthony suddenly opened her mouth and called the man over: "You really don't have a room here? ā€

Dio and the others couldn't help but be a little strange, didn't they already discuss it and leave after eating? Why did Anthony suddenly change her mind? But several people are not stupid, with Antony's surname, they will not make their own decisions without consulting them, they can only say that there must be some reason for Anthony to do this, so they did not speak, just looked at Anthony quietly.

"This ...... It's not a matter of price, there really isn't any extra room left. The guy said with a smile in embarrassment.

The innkeeper also hurriedly ran over to play a round: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, it's really unfortunate, my rooms here were just rented out yesterday, and if a few of them had been a day earlier, there wouldn't have been so much trouble." ā€

As the innkeeper spoke, he was still muttering in his heart, what's going on these days? Usually, don't say that the room is full, thank God if you can rent out half of the room, but seeing that you can't earn the money you get, the pain in your heart is not to mention.

"It's all rented out, isn't it?" Anthony looked at the innkeeper, "How many people are eating here?"

"Where, don't look at me here, there are a lot of rooms, a total of ten rooms. "The innkeeper puffed out his chest, as if owning a ten-room inn was already a remarkable thing.

At this time, the fat man in the corner stood up, paced slowly, walked to Anthony's side, and said with a smile: "This young lady, the room is rented by us, don't be embarrassed by the boss, but we will leave tomorrow, if you are not in a hurry, you can wait." ā€

Anthony smiled: "That's it, then forget it, I see that there are so few people eating here, and I think the boss is lying to us." ā€

"It seems that the young lady doesn't know the boss here. The fat man laughed heartily: "He is a famous iron rooster, how can he not make money without making money, we only arrived here last night, everyone else is tired, dinner is eaten in the room, but I didn't expect the young lady to misunderstand." ā€

"Otherwise, ......" The fat man observed Anthony's expression and said slowly: "I'll let our people squeeze in and make room for you?" I also heard a few people chatting, and a few of them are rushing to the battlefield, right? Hehe, I admire warriors like you the most, if it weren't for the time constraints, I really wanted to talk to a few more people. ā€

"That's embarrassing. Anthony smiled and rejected the other party's proposal: "It's not that we can't endure hardship, so we won't trouble you." ā€

The fat man said a few more polite words, and seeing that Anthony had never changed his mind, he smiled and walked back and sat down.

"What are you talking to them about?" said the diminutive middle-aged man in a very low voice.

"It's okay, I just thought something was wrong, so I went over and tried it. The fat man shook his head slightly: "But it seems that I am too careful." ā€

On the other side, Anthony stood up first, left the hotel with Dio and the others, and did not forget to say goodbye to the fat man when she left.

Anthony's 'way of walking' naturally attracted the attention of the fat man and others, looking at the green light that stretched out from under Anthony's knees, the fat man sighed: "The strength is good, but it's a pity." ā€

The middle-aged man pouted: "Such a person also goes to the battlefield?

The fat man glared at the middle-aged man: "Be careful when you speak." ā€

The middle-aged man shrugged his shoulders disapprovingly and didn't say anything more.

Dio and the others walked out of the town and headed south, and after a while, Dio looked back to make sure that no one was following, and then looked at Anthony: "What happened just now?"

The others also set their eyes on Anthony, and everyone knew in their hearts that something must have happened and were waiting to hear Anthony's explanation.

Anthony glanced at everyone and spoke slowly, "I suspect they are from the Moon Shadow Empire. ā€

"What?"

"Where did you see that?"

"Do you remember the young man who came in later? The clothes he wore inside were exactly the same as the clothes of the Moon Shadow Emperor in terms of color. ā€

Huh? Everyone is a little ridiculous, but the colors are similar, so you suspect that the other party is the Moon Shadow Empire's annihilator? This is too...... Anthony smiled: "As far as I know, none of our people near the border will wear clothes of this color, of course, this is only one of the reasons, so I tested it, don't you think the other party's attitude is a little too courteous?"
