Chapter 8: Whereabouts

It was afternoon, and the tavern was very dim because there were no lights. There were only four guests in the tavern www.biquge.info Pen Fun Pavilion, two of whom were sleeping soundly on the table, and the other two were sitting opposite each other in the corner of the tavern, each with a glass of ale, talking in a whisper, and when he saw Chris, who was dressed in magic robes, walked in, he only glanced at it and ignored it.

Chris called for a glass of ale, then closed his eyes and began to meditate.

It didn't take long for the door to light and the tavern door was pushed open.

One hesitated for a moment at the door, seemingly scanning the guests in the tavern, and then slowly walked to Chris's table.

Chris opened his eyes.

In front of him was a small man, dressed in a set of black antiquated light armor, carrying a dagger with a sheath at his waist, which was the standard dress of a thief, his face was ordinary, but the narrow eyes made him look a little gloomy, and he bowed to Chriss: "Venerable Magician, are you looking for Tlaka?"

Chris nodded slightly: "Sit!"

The thief sat down somewhat stiffly in front of Chris, who turned back to the waiter at the bar: "Have a glass of ale!"

The thief hurriedly stood up and thanked him.

When the waiter put the ale in front of him, he quickly took a big sip of the wine glass, wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth, and asked in a low voice, "My lord, don't dare to ask... Terraka is not offended by you... Or..."

Chris's lips moved under the hood, "It's none of your business! Do you know Tlaka's whereabouts?"

"Yes, yes, I'm sorry for talking too much. The thief coughed awkwardly, "Before I can introduce myself, I, a member of the 'Tiger Roar' mercenary group and a third-level thief Vegeta, salute you." ”

Even Chris's temperament couldn't help but curse "" in his heart.

Even you dare to call Vegeta!

He tugged at the corners of his mouth quietly: "You are also a member of the 'Tiger Roar' mercenary group? Where is Traca now?"

Vegeta bowed, "I'm sorry, my lord, but I don't know his whereabouts now. ”

The voice under the hood was chilling: "Are you kidding me?"

Vegeta hurriedly stood up and bowed, "Please listen to me, my lord." ”

"Humph!"

"I'm Traca's best friend, and although I don't know where he is now, I'm afraid few people know where he went - he disappeared some time ago. ”

"Be careful!"

"Yes, Tlaka is rarely with the members of the group, in addition to the mercenary mission, he seems to have some other income, once seemed to make some money, invited a few of us more familiar members to drink together, and said that being a mercenary will always be a poor ghost, a friend asked him, 'What do you want to do when you have money?' He said to be a nobleman, hehe..."

Vegeta picked up the wine glass again and took a big sip, "Aristocrat, who wouldn't want to be a nobleman, of course everyone knows that he drank too much, most of us will be distressed half to death even if the weapon is broken, I don't even know if there will be food tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, how can I think of it... After completing the task, I have some money in my hand, and I haven't come to the tavern to drink two glasses, some people who have money in hand don't just go to the northern mercenary city, and the mercenaries here in the imperial capital are only waiting to starve to death..."

Chris knocked on the table: "Wait, where are you talking about 'Mercenary City'?"

"The town of Kib in the north. Your Excellency, you've heard of it, right?"

Chris nodded, "How did it come to be called 'Mercenary City'?"

"Look, what kind of tasks can the mercenaries here in the imperial capital do? deliver letters, find people, catch pets, escort goods... How much can I get paid? Where is the edge of Kibu Town? Warcraft Forest, if you are lucky, you can get a magic crystal, and the third-level magic crystal will be at least fifty gold coins, where is the paradise of mercenaries..."

Chris was silent.

Heaven and hell, I only see the income of a few people, but I don't see how many mercenaries die in the Warcraft Forest every day.

He had to stop Vegeta's chatter: "Okay, move on to Tlraca. ”

Vegeta raised her head and drank the ale down, "Yes, yes." ”

Chris beckoned the tavern waiter to bring another glass of ale, Vegeta was overjoyed, thanked him again and again, and continued: "Let's continue to talk about Tlarka, where are we? By the way, I saw Tlarka a few times during missions, and his equipment and weapons are much better than before, and he is much more advanced than mine..." Hehe, this kid said as soon as he got drunk, he earned it in the casino. ”

"You mean, he gambles?"

"Of course, money can't come easily except for gambling, you say. ”

"When was the last time you saw him?"

Vegeta scratched her head: "This guy is elusive, the imperial capital is so big, it's not so easy to meet someone... When I think about it... Ah, by the way, the last time I saw him was in the mercenary union hall, and I greeted him, but it was too noisy for him to hear, and I didn't catch up. ”

"What was his expression then?"

"What?expression? It's a normal expression, it's that kind of unhappy expression when you don't get a good task. ”

Chris fell silent.

"If you think about it, is there anything else that hasn't been said? about Tlacca?"

Vegeta took another sip of his glass: "Oh, yes, by the way, Tlarka often has injuries on his body, does this count?"

"Wounded, it shouldn't be a big deal for you mercenaries, right?"

Vegeta shook her head and said, "My lord, you don't know, most of the tasks of our Southern Mercenary Guild don't need to be used, although mercenary groups sometimes do it with each other, but that's not much." ”

Chris nodded.

"So, I just wonder sometimes and don't ask too much. ”

Krissy pondered for a moment, then took out a gold coin and placed it in front of Vegeta, "This is your reward. ”

Vegeta was overjoyed, the reward of this one gold coin was obviously a big surprise, and he couldn't help but thank him again and again.

Chris walked out of the tavern, summoned a carriage, and sat on it.
