Chapter 25: A Little Enlightenment I

"Harvey, you say, what is that Bakas tax collector trying to do?

It was late at night, and the moonlit town of Rika had fallen into a deep sleep, silent, and the lights were out.

Located in the lair of the Thieves' Guild just outside the town, only two of the four people are still asleep. was lying on the bed, chatting, and unconsciously talked about the incident just now.

The thief named Harvey was a one-eyed man, and he smiled: "Whatever, anyway, as long as this boy is destroyed, in the future, even if we have a backer in this town, it is better than floating around like this......"

The thieves' union, which has always been established in large and medium-sized cities, has also gradually developed into small and medium-sized towns with a slow pace of life due to the gradual advancement of the adventure team to remote areas and the transfer of some thieves to small and medium-sized towns.

The town of Rika, a town nestled on the edge of the sea and forests, is also gradually coming into the spotlight of outsiders in this wave. Just half a month ago, a small group of thieves with only four people set foot on this land.

"Hey, I said Bosi, you've been wrong since yesterday, don't you miss a woman? When this is done, let's go to the mercenary group to find two girls to have a good night, hahaha! I didn't say you, the last time we were in that town, the girl we did was so spicy and strong, that taste, tsk, you kid is not blessed, not only did not get it done, but also got scratched in the face, haha, it's really embarrassing. ”

The thief named Bosi, emaciated and pale, glared at his companion: "If you hadn't killed her husband and children, would she have worked so hard......?

Speaking of this, he also recalled: "By the way, is that tax officer a good talker, can he acquiesce to us running in the town?"

The conditions for the establishment of chapters in the thieves' guild are very lenient, probably because of the thieves' unfettered surname and for better promotion.

So, just complete the following three conditions

The first is to obtain the approval of the Church of the God of Theft and pay tribute to it every year. Secondly, the people who are planning to establish a branch are originally members of the thieves' union, and finally, the number of people who want to establish a branch must not be less than four

This small group of four thieves just meets the above conditions, of course, generally speaking, although the thieves' union can't see the light, it will also get in touch with the lord and deal with things that the lord is inconvenient to take action head-on

However, because this group of thieves is only the lowest level 1-2 small thieves, they can't get along in the city, so they come here, so they are not taken seriously, and the lord of Rika Town, Baron Roccas, has lived in Rocas Castle for a long time, and the civilians rarely see it. In the end, they were all completely disappointed, and they didn't expect that at this moment, the tax collector of the local mayor's mansion actually took the initiative to find them.

They were told that if they could make a deal with him, the tax collector, who was said to be related to the lord, would promise to do for them many things to set up a branch in the town.

And the part they need to accomplish is just to frame a fifteen-year-old ordinary small-town boy with no power, no power, no father and no mother. No matter how you look at it, this deal is very cost-effective.

Because of the habits of the profession, after Bakath left, the gang of thieves also secretly sent people out to investigate the young man who obviously offended the tax officer, and the results of the investigation were similar to what Bakasi said, except that he did not say that the young man was actually a first-level druid, everything else was true.

However, although this boy is a level 1 druid, he is only level 1 after all, and judging from the current situation of offending the druids and being expelled by Priest Tenis, it will not be much of a danger to them. And in the end, they also decided to make this trade that no matter how you look at it, it will not lose.

"Hey, what are you thinking, if he dares to deceive us, we can also let him walk around without eating!" The one-eyed man's face changed, and then he scolded unhappily.

"Yes. The thief named Bosi was at ease at the thought of this. However, I don't know why, his eyelids have been jumping since yesterday. His natural acuity always made him feel a little uneasy in his heart. The feeling had been getting stronger since yesterday, and he rubbed his temples, feeling that he might be too nervous. He had to go out of town tomorrow morning, and he decided not to think about it and sleep peacefully.

The urge to urinate gradually hit with the sleepiness, and Bosie sighed and finally sat up resignedly.

"Where are you going?" asked the one-eyed man curiously.

"I'm going to relieve myself. Bosie said, putting on his shoes and pushing the door open from the room between them.

The gang of thieves rented a dilapidated two-story building, with the four thieves living in three rooms on the second floor and toilets on the first floor on the side of the corridor. The thief yawned as he descended the stairs. When he walked outside the door of the welcome room, a strange noise suddenly came from inside, which made him feel excited and immediately sobered up.

The thief happened to be the one in charge of today's vigil, he took out a bunch of keys, chose the largest one, and then carefully inserted it into the keyhole, and then, with a slight twist, something was wrong! The door was actually open! Could it be ...... He forgot to lock this room today?

Or is it ...... He put his ear to the door and listened. However, what made him feel strange was that the voice just now did not appear again, could it be that he had heard it wrong just now?

Confused, the thief drew his sharp dagger from his boot and slowly pushed the wooden door open.

There was a light on inside. The file drawer against the wall was wide open. A lot of things were scattered on the ground. Bosie looked at everything in front of him in amazement, oh my God, someone actually stole from the head of the thieves' union?!

However, there is nothing of value in this room except for a few papers. However, he was not allowed to think much about it at this time, and looking at the iron window that had been locked from the outside, he concluded that the person who had broken into it had certainly not left the room! Although, when he pushed the door in, he saw no one, but there were three large vertical cabinets in this room, and it was likely that the person who had come had been hidden.

Bosi was an experienced thief after all, and he was not weak in martial arts, so when he found out about the situation in front of him, he did not immediately go out and call for others, but began to search the entire room in earnest.

A cabinet slammed open, and no one was in sight.

The second cabinet, after opening, is still empty.

Bosie's eyes sharpened as he looked at the last cupboard, and if he guessed correctly, the visitor would have taken refuge here. However, this time he did not open the cabinet rashly, but listened carefully for a while, and sure enough, in this quiet atmosphere, the faintly suppressed breathing sound inside still reached his ears.

Bosie gave a cruel smile, and then, slamming the sharp dagger in his hand through the wooden cabinet door, a scream rang out. He laughed, then drew the dagger, and the dripping blood ran down the tip of the dagger and fell to the ground.

In the air, a bloody aura suddenly diffused. The emaciated man suddenly had a perverted excitement on his face, and he slammed the cabinet door, causing him to scream with joy from the two strange teenagers hiding inside.

"You dare to come here to steal something, it's really bold, come out for me!" the thief smiled, took his sword without hesitation, and motioned for the two teenagers to come out.

The two teenagers looked at each other, and then, obediently, crawled out of it. Among them, the burly boy was clutching his right arm, blood spilling down his fingers.

"Let's go, Romon. The thief apparently recognized the identity of the other teenager: "It seems that tomorrow's transaction will not be necessary, theft and night entry into people's houses, and attempted robbery are more crimes, Eun, let me think about it, this is a crime that can be hanged, haha!"

The thief was just as he was about to call the others down. Suddenly, Romon raised his hand, only to hear a "poof", and his neck was pierced.

Because things were so strange, the thief couldn't resist at such a close distance.

"It's a crossbow!" his mind suddenly thought, not thinking about why the two teenagers had such tightly controlled weapons, and a large amount of blood splattered out.

Seeing the thief fall to the ground, Romon let out a long breath.

This crossbow is the only weapon in the space, except for the machete, originally his country, the weapon control is very strict, although there is space to load things, but he can't get a gun, so he has to get a crossbow, I can't think of it now plays an important role.

Although Fafer was very surprised by the effect of this thing in Romon hand, the sound of footsteps immediately made his already open mouth tightly closed.

One of the thieves had barely turned around when he heard a "poof", and his body shook, and a short arrow pierced through his chest and came from behind.

The man snorted violently and threw himself on the ground

A thief who followed out from behind was so shocked that he was in a dilemma for a while

Romon held a crossbow with six bolts on it, and the arrows showed a cold light, while Fafer held a long sword and pressed forward

The thief's eyes suddenly showed a look of despair, and he shouted violently, and pounced on him

Luo Meng's eyes were cold, he moved, poof, and once again pressed the crossbow arrow, shot out, penetrating his body, because the distance was too close, and even pierced out of his body, with a large puddle of blood, nailed to the door

After that, things are much simpler, the crossbow is a big killing weapon, before the low-level people, it is basically invincible, especially the remaining one, just a low-level thief of about level 1-2, Romon with a crossbow, Fafer with a long sword to help, there is no danger to find out the last person to kill, until it is confirmed that there is no one else, then relaxed.

Before he relaxed, Fafer immediately turned pale, this was the first time he had killed someone, and he had killed four, and when he heard that he had been framed just now, he was excited for a while, but now he was afraid

Romon was also a little disgusted, but still suppressed it

These were four corpses, with hideous faces and horrific deaths, and the air was filled with the smell of post-death filth. The breath from the outside poured in, but it still couldn't wash away all the traces of what happened here.

"Romon, are they—are they really dead? were we killed?" a low, hoarse voice suddenly broke the eerie silence, a little nervous, and more incredibly unbelievable.

If the first thing to do after killing the four thieves in the first place, Fafer's first reaction was, "Oh my God, we killed someone!"

He glanced sideways at his friend beside him, who also had a somewhat complicated expression, and the shocking scene just now flashed in his mind again. What was that weapon that suddenly appeared? Where was Luo Meng hiding? Also, in the sudden moment just now, Luo Meng's decisiveness, and Luo Meng's killing intent when he faced the enemy, were so strange to him. It was as if he suddenly didn't know this good buddy......

"Fafer, do you regret it, do you regret coming with me today?" Finding his gaze, Romon suddenly raised his face and asked, having been silent about the corpse. Romon also had a strange expression now, cloudy and uncertain, with a little flame burning in his eyes;
