Chapter 277: Getting Stronger
"Let's do this today, and tomorrow morning we all come over for a meeting. Kevin told Little Spoon to go back first, believing that they shouldn't dare to do it in the hotel.
The little spoon stood still, and said with some regret: "I always feel like we can't help." ”
Kevin sighed: "You don't know the imperial Chinese, and you can hardly communicate when you go out." It's also unlikely that you want to find out any kind of information. ”
"Well," said the little spoon, without saying anything more, "then I'll go and rest." ”
Kevin remembered Sain after saying that, and maybe he could consider having the others get in touch with the named McGee and the bard named Barack, and maybe better understand why Sain couldn't understand the words at first.
When I returned to my room, I closed the door, but I couldn't sleep for a while, lying on the bed looking at the threatening letter in a daze. If you want to talk about being afraid, Kevin can be regarded as a person who has turned around on the death line, and this psychological quality is still there. The key is the other party's possible follow-up means.
Kevin is not a strong man, the really strong man naturally treats it calmly and sleeps with peace of mind, anyway, the other party can't hurt the strong man with any tricks. But Kevin is the weak, and the weak must think about the other party's tricks in advance and respond in advance.
How will the other party deal with Kevin?
Kevin puts himself in the role of the Imperial, who at the moment clearly feels that the technology has been stolen by Kevin, but there is no direct evidence, and they will not have direct evidence. It's not that the two cars are exactly the same is evidence, Kevin can argue about the coincidence, unless he can find evidence of Kevin's stealing of the moment, but that's no longer possible.
Technology leaks are obviously a top priority for the Empire, and everything else, such as the Little Tiger Cub, the conflict with the Church of Light, the interrogation of the host of the auction, and the death of the Smitter, are all put aside for the time being.
To deal with Kevin, the first must be verbal, intimidation or persuasion, and in the end, when all methods fail, it will naturally be a frontal armed conflict. Now that intimidation has begun, armed conflict is the last resort, and there will be all kinds of unguardable routines in between.
Kevin got up from the bed, walked to the window to look, and walked around the room twice more before suddenly he had a flash of inspiration and stopped.
At present, there are many headaches for the empire, and there is actually a way to solve most of the problems, and that is to find someone who has a black cauldron, such as Kevin. What if Kevin was framed as a murderer of the Smecta people? Or even framed Kevin as the person behind the auction? Or even as a necromancer?
It is entirely possible that after the auction item escaped, Smecta was killed, and it was concluded that the murderer was inside the hotel. Kevin himself is one of the suspects, the hotels are all opened by them, the so-called evidence is at hand, and no one else will help defend them, they are all allies of the empire or afraid of the strength of the empire. If the other party's evidence is "sufficient", others will even condemn Kevin.
It can not only solve the long-pending case, but also let Kevin, who stole secrets, get out of the way early, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone. So if you have this problem in mind, how should you deal with it?
Kevin pulled out a chair and sat down, writing and drawing on paper and pen without sleeping all night, until dawn, Kevin leaned on the table for a while.
In a moment, there was a knock on the door, and the little spoon woke everyone up, and came to the meeting according to Kevin's order last night.
Kevin got up and opened the door, brought the person in, and went over to wash his face and sit down for a meeting. Everyone could see Kevin's exhaustion, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little upset, and many people felt that they couldn't help much.
Kevin didn't mind and waved his hand to get to the point. First of all, introduce the incident of last night, show them the threat letter, and remind everyone to be careful, since they dared to make a move on Kevin yesterday, others will be no exception.
The faces of the people were solemn, and some people immediately suggested that they could lure the other party to make a move, and then kill the opponent back? Kevin vetoed this proposal, how many groups of people were ambushed in the Church of Light some time ago, and so many dead were just minions, and there was no point in killing them.
Subsequently, Kevin affirmed the person who opened the training class for the strong, and even encouraged everyone to go over and have a look, and the money was cheaper anyway. A group of several people asked together, he can't always answer "study hard", he will give some real advice.
Then give them another task, that is, to contact McGee of the Country and the imperial bard Belakdo, which has no other meaning, simply because there are too few people here who understand Lou Pauler's Chinese, and they can only communicate with them.
With everything in order, Kevin dismissed the group, leaving only Jack and his parrot to contact the ambassador.
The ambassador was still on a routine tour of the princess's side at this time, and after the parrot found him, he hurried to the field to set up an enchantment to communicate. Hearing what happened to Kevin last night, he also had a solemn look on his face.
Kevin asked directly, "Who is the person who started the training class?"
The ambassador sighed: "Ask him yourself, if he is willing to tell you, you naturally know, and I can't say if I don't want to." ”
Kevin nodded, so it seems that this person is really his own person, but his identity is very mysterious, I'm afraid it will be inconvenient for Xiao Spoon and others to reveal it.
But in any case, this person's identity must be confirmed, and Kevin is in a dangerous situation at the moment, and it would really help if he secretly assisted.
Kevin immediately got up and went to the training course alone, of course, the air parrot helped to warn that the danger in the daytime was much smaller than at night, but it was not completely safe, especially in such a remote place.
Coming to the street corner alone, a few homeless people on the side of the road caught a glimpse of Kevin and immediately stood up. His eyes stared at Kevin without shying away from it, his hands were in an invisible place, and he didn't know what he would pull out.
Although these people are in rags, they don't have a lot of muscles on their bodies, and it is likely that they are dressed as some mercenaries and accept special tasks to stay here.
Kevin didn't hesitate, just drew his sword, and then walked against the wall, dealing as few enemies as possible. The steps are very steady, the hands are not shaking, the face is calm, and the confidence is assured.
A homeless man leaning against the root of the wall stood still in front of him, and Kevin walked all the way to him along the root of the wall, his sword slightly raised. After a slight hesitation, the other party finally stepped aside. A group of people watched Kevin enter the house, and no one moved.
Kai Wenming confessed that this is not to say that they are really afraid of him, but now is not the time to do it, and if they don't fight now, it doesn't mean that they won't fight when they come out of it.
But at present, I don't care about so much, and when I walked into the broken house, I saw that Sain and the others had already arrived here in advance. Following Kevin's instructions, they also come to learn how to get stronger. It's just that they were really very active, and they came over after the meeting and took advantage of Kevin's contact with the ambassador, arriving earlier than Kevin.
"The cavalry will be useless in the future, let's learn to drive in the future. When he entered the door, he heard this man suggest this, and when he saw that it was Sain who had received the advice at the table.
However, Sain and the others couldn't understand, language was a big problem, Xiao Jiu took a few paintings in front of him and compared, this person couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Don't you go abroad to learn a foreign language?"
Kevin had already spoken: "Okay, you guys go back first, I'll talk to him alone." ”
Everyone was slightly surprised, and couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Kevin together, and this person also raised his eyelids: "You are different from them, you have already booked two packages yesterday, and today it is 100 to start." ”
"I know," Kevin replied, turning to them, "you guys go back first." ”
"Shall I go back too?" the little spoon confirmed.
"Yes," Kevin nodded, "I'll do it alone." ”
Everyone stopped insisting and each of them exited the house, leaving Kevin and the other party in the room. Kevin pulled out a stool from the spatial ring and sat across from him.
"How's your room soundproofed?" Kevin began.
The other party motioned to Kevin to look around: "This dilapidated house still has sound insulation?"
"And if I had any secrets, or ways to become stronger, wouldn't it be heard by the outside?" asked Kevin.
"I can open the barrier, but it costs money. ”
"No problem. Kevin replied, not even asking how much.
The other party raised his hand and waved, and a layer of enchantment had already enveloped the room. Outside, the parrot immediately flew to the roof near the hole in the roof and called several times. Kevin sees the parrot, but he can't hear the birdsong, and knows that the sound insulation effect of this barrier is sufficient.
"What is the feeling of meeting fellow villagers when you are away from home?" Kevin asked in Lou Pauler's language.
The other party was silent and did not answer.
"There are factions in the domestic military, although I am not a high-level and I don't know the specific faction, and I don't know which faction I am," Kevin smiled wryly, "but I still boldly guess that you should be ...... Which faction is General Oude?"
The other party still did not respond.
"You should be an Assassin, a good Assassin," Kevin guessed again, "gathering intelligence in such a difficult environment is hard work and respectable. ”
The other party finally spoke, but still insisted on imperial Chinese: "Do you see those homeless people at the door?"
Kevin nodded.
"Aren't you worried that I'm in league with them?" asked curiously.
Kevin, however, still insisted on answering in Lou Pauler's Chinese: "I'm not worried, there are many reasons." Know the ...... of the Monster Cub The magic array in your desk...... Ambassador's remarks...... And your approach, of course, is not 100% sure, but it is already worth believing. ”
The other party was silent for a long time, and the two looked at each other for a long time, and finally he smiled: "You guessed right." ”
Kevin breathed a sigh of relief, but still said, "I'm sorry, I know you don't want to reveal your identity, but I'm having a lot of trouble at the moment. ”
"I am indeed a member of the Assassins' Guild, the third in line, the code name - the Swingman," the other party finally revealed his identity, "You also know about the Assassins, you should understand that most of the Assassin code names are taken indiscriminately, and they don't mean anything." ”
Kevin was stunned: "I suddenly felt that swingers might have a special meaning. ”
The other party waved his hand: "My identity can only be known to you alone, if you leak it, I will kill you." I can also give you hypnotic hints, once you are caught, when you are tortured, you will automatically forget that I exist. ”
"No problem. Kevin replied.
"There's news from China that you are one of the balance points between the two factions," the swingman began, "I didn't believe it much at first, but now it seems that I kind of recognize your level." Then I, as a member of the faction, should also win over you as a balance. ”
Kevin, who was praised, was a little embarrassed: "Actually, I always felt that I didn't have any skills, just thinking about how to work every day." ”
"The world is most afraid of seriousness," replied the swinger, "and I have also learned about what you have done through the ambassador, and it is worthy of recognition." Then now I will also teach you a few tricks, although it can't directly improve your fighting spirit or mental power, but it can more or less make you really stronger!"
"I have learned tens of thousands of various ** methods and fighting skills, and I am an eighth-order powerhouse with a dual cultivation of mages and demons and martial arts, don't underestimate me. At the end of the day, the swinger couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Don't dare to underestimate it. Kevin panicked.
