Chapter 252: Superior
Hearing this, Han Shuo jumped two more levels, and Han Shuo was also in a happy mood, and hurriedly handed over the iron plate symbolizing his identity to Candida's hands.
The organization of the Dark Curtain is extremely large, and it has all kinds of resources in the empire, and the three Candidas, who are the Big Three, are even more than 10,000 people under one person, and have power that no one can underestimate. With the advancement of status, the rights that can be enjoyed will also increase, and you can take advantage of the convenience of the position to access some unknown and latest information.
Candida took Han Shuo's iron plaque, couldn't hide her excitement and returned to her seat, helping Han Shuo change the position of the iron plaque that symbolized his identity, and when he returned it to Han Shuo, the star pattern behind the iron plaque disappeared and was replaced by four crooked little moons.
"Thank you, Lord Candida!" Han Shuo glanced at it, then put the iron plate into the space ring, and thanked him with a smile.
Waving his hand, the weird smile on Candida's face did not fade, and he said in a very good mood: "Don't thank me, this is the reward you deserve, you kid is really good, it's a miracle that it's not even a year before the April envoy." ”
"That's because I'm lucky, and I'm promoted by adults!" Han Shuo replied very modestly without being arrogant or impatient.
"Okay, okay, you kid don't make a fool of the sycophants!" Candida scolded with a smile, then frowned and stared, "How did you get this codex, I want to know all the details." ”
Knowing that Candida would interrogate carefully, Han Shuo had already thought of his words before he came over, and roughly described the situation in the Forbidden Land, and the concealment of what should be concealed and the clarity that should be picked out, and the lifting of the confinement power of the Forbidden Land was all pushed to the Cyclops and the Golden Dragon, and he said that he was extremely lucky, and only after the two huge creatures left, did he enter the Forbidden Land and get the codex book from the tombstone.
After Han Shuo finished speaking, Candida looked surprised and muttered, "It's actually a forbidden place, this legendary strange place that no one can get out of, it's really incredible that it has lost its power of imprisonment. Could it be that the god Almeric died in the Forbidden Land, and this thing is really a bit strange?"
"I've taken a closer look at that area, and after the two super-level creatures left, there was nothing else in the entire area except for a tombstone. So, I don't think even if you send someone to investigate this matter, I'm afraid you won't be able to find out anything. "When he left the Forbidden Land, Han Shuo erased the traces left behind, and even if Candida really sent someone over, I'm afraid there would be no discovery.
"That's right," Candida whispered, and continued, "Still, send someone over to see it, and nothing about the god of Almeric can be treated carelessly, and I think Your Majesty will do the same." ”
"Whatever you want, but I won't go over anyway, because I just returned from there, and when I came back, I had already searched carefully, and I didn't find anything!" Han Shuo lazily said that he was not interested in this task, and spread his hands to signal that I would not do it.
"This is your right, you don't want me to find someone else!" Candida glanced at Han Shuo, but didn't blame Han Shuo, she looked at Han Shuo in confusion, and said, "By the way, what are you doing in the depths of the dark forest?"
"Hehe, it's also my right not to answer your question, right?" Han Shuo understood that the Secret Curtain Organization should not interfere in the private affairs of its members, so he said with a scoundrel smile.
Glaring at Han Shuo, Candida waved her hand helplessly and said, "Forget it, anyway, you have already brought back the things, and I won't care about your private affairs." This time you handed over this codex to me, you have made a great contribution in the public, and I owe you a great favor in private. ”
"That's a good feeling!" Han Shuo laughed and asked, "Well, okay, I'll come back and report now." If there's nothing to do, I'll leave first, I still have my own business to deal with!"
"Wait!" Candida stopped and then muttered, "Originally, I prepared a mission for you, but you kid was able to come back alive from the depths of the dark forest, and quickly advanced to a high-level mage of the undead, and those simple tasks seem to be no longer suitable."
Well, I have three more difficult missions here, the first is to go to the city of Balthazar to assassinate an Angela anjor, this anniversary has an official identity in the city of Balthazar, everything he does seems to be legitimate, so he can only be assassinated, so as not to leave a scourge.
The second mission is to go to the city of Bimson in the north of the empire, and it is said that in a barren mountain around Bimson City, a large amount of weapons have been hoarded, and someone needs to be sent to find out. The third mission is to protect a person, and this person, you know, is Prince Lawrence.
Well, although he has not been officially recognized, but I think you already know his identity, and the third task is personally given by His Majesty the King, although the manpower has been arranged, but the King is not enough, if you are interested, you can also participate. ”
After thinking about it for a while, Han Shuo thought that there was some danger on Phoebe's side at the moment, this time he had just returned to the empire, and many things had not been dealt with, so he couldn't leave the empire immediately, so he said: "Okay, I'll choose the third mission, anyway, I'm quite familiar with Lawrence, and it's a good idea to protect him!"
"Then it's up to you, but Lawrence has a special identity, you have to be careful with yourself, so as not to cause unwarranted disasters!" Candida had already reminded Han Shuo and asked him to properly handle the relationship with Lawrence, and this time when Han Shuo took over the task, he reminded him again, indicating that the struggle for power between several princes should be even more intense.
"Don't worry, I know it in my heart!" Han Shuo nodded in understanding, then hesitated for a moment and asked, "Lord Candida, how is the Duke of Ahiborne?"
Candida was stunned for a moment, and glanced at Han Shuo suspiciously, before he asked, "What's the matter, is he going to recruit you?"
Shaking his head, Han Shuo said in a deep voice, "No, I think I offended him, I guess he won't let me go." ”
Shocked, Candida had a gloomy face and said, "Grand Duke Ashburn is the Minister of Imperial Affairs, his sister is the Empress of the Empire, and he is the maternal uncle of the Great Prince Charles. This person's methods are ruthless and will be avenged, he has a large number of dead soldiers in captivity, relying on the power in his hands and the secret support of the queen, there are countless political enemies who have died in his hands, you must be cautious if you offend him. ”
"Are you afraid of him?" Han Shuo was silent for a moment before suddenly asking.
Rolling a glance at Han Shuo, Candida said, "I'm not afraid of him, but I don't want to provoke him easily." As you know, our secret curtain is the king's black hand, and everything we do represents His Majesty, especially our three envoys are directly responsible to His Majesty.
While His Majesty is alive, no one can do anything to us, not even he, Ahbourne, to be careful not to fall into our hands. However, once His Majesty the current King is gone, there will be a change of power, and if the rights in the hands of the three of us are removed by the new King, then he will not have to worry about us, do you understand?"
Nodding, Han Shuo said in a deep voice, "I understand, okay, I'll go find Lawrence!"
As soon as the words fell, Han Shuo walked straight out, and when Han Shuo was about to leave, Candida suddenly spoke: "You are my person, you are now the identity of the April Envoy, even if it is Ashborne, if you want to deal with you, you have to weigh it." Hehe, for your sake, I'll help you when it matters most!"
"Thank you!" Han Shuo turned around and thanked him sincerely, before leaving Candida's room.
Leaving Ordas Mountain with a teleportation array, Han Shuo went to the Chancellor of the Exchequer's Eevee's house, intending to probe Lawrence's tone and see what was going on on his side.
"My name is Brian, I'm coming to Lawrence, please help me with a briefing. Arriving at Lawrence's door, Han Shuo said with a smile at the guard.
Han Shuo had already understood the principle of people wanting clothes, wearing a well-tailored cyan samurai uniform, with a few broken gems on the neckline, he looked capable and spirited, and with the confident smile on Han Shuo's face, he looked extraordinary.
Ordinary dogs looked at the guards who looked down on people, and they didn't dare to make things difficult when they found that someone was extraordinary, so when Han Shuo's words fell, one of them said respectfully, "Please wait", and walked straight inside.
Not long after, Lawrence walked out in person, and before he reached Han Shuo's side, he had already raised his voice and laughed heartily: "You are finally back, I have been to the undead department to look for you several times." ”
Behind Lawrence, followed by a few unfamiliar faces, all of them with a calm and extraordinary bearing, obviously a master with unique skills, it seems that what Candida said is good, Lawrence's safety is indeed cautious enough.
"Okay, there shouldn't be anything going on in broad daylight, so don't follow me. After coming out of it, Lawrence turned around and said, strode towards Han Shuo, hugged Han Shuo very warmly, and said, "Why did you think of looking for me?"
"Well, I didn't want to come to you, but I had to come on a mission!" Han Shuo was really, looking at Lawrence with a wry smile and explaining.
Lawrence was stunned for a moment, then laughed and said, "I see, but it doesn't matter, you can come anyway." ”
"Let's go, get out of here with me, let's find a place to talk. Lawrence pulled Han Shuo and walked straight to a carriage parked at the door.
Seeing Lawrence coming, the lazy groom immediately became energetic, and hurriedly turned sideways to open the carriage and let Lawrence go inside. Some of the strange masters who followed around scattered one by one, or followed behind Lawrence blatantly or covertly, and they should all be careful to protect Lawrence's safety.
"Go to the North Rose Garden!" Lawrence commanded the groom as soon as he got into the carriage and sat down.
"What is the place?" Han Shuo was almost dragged by Lawrence, so he got into the carriage, and when the carriage drove out, he couldn't help but ask.
"Hehe, you'll know when you get there, don't worry about it so much, tell me where you've been chic since we separated?" Lawrence smiled mysteriously and asked Han Shuo.
"It's nothing, it's just that I stayed in Yuyao Valley for a while, and hunted a few demonic beasts in the dark forest. Han Shuo smiled slightly, concealed everything, and replied easily.
"It's not that simple, I've heard Sister Phoebe say that you are in the Valley of Yaoyao, but you have done a lot of amazing things! Hehe, you have made such a big disturbance in the Rainbow Scythe Mercenary Regiment, am I really so lonely and unheard?" Lawrence said with a squinting eye as if you didn't treat me as a brother.
"Hehe, it's really nothing, speaking of your junior sister Phoebe, you're a little bit uninteresting to be a senior brother, Phoebe's business house was bullied, and you didn't help her at all?"
As soon as these words came out, Lawrence was immediately stunned, and then asked Han Shuo with a frown, "What's the matter?"
After staring at Lawrence carefully, Han Shuo hesitated for a moment and asked in surprise, "You don't know?"
"My little sister doesn't want to owe favors to anyone, and she doesn't want to trouble others about anything, I know her stinky temper, but I really don't know what's going on. Lawrence said calmly.
"In this way, the Cameron Merchant Alliance wants to annex the Buster Merchant Firm, and Cameron seems to be under the protection of the Duke of Ashburn, and almost took Phoebe directly in the Buster Merchant Action. Han Shuo's face turned cold and said with a gloomy face.
Enraged, Lawrence slapped the handle of the carriage and snorted coldly: "Ahbourne really spared no effort for Charles, this kind of practice is really too bad." ”
After a pause, Lawrence sighed: "Phoebe is true, I can help with this kind of thing, but she doesn't ventilate with me, if you don't tell me, she will have to be annexed by Cameron's firm." ”
Through the intelligence of the dark curtain, Han Shuo had already roughly understood some of Lawrence's strength, knowing that Lawrence had a trip to Valen City with him last time, and was inclined to his former deputy leader of the Griffin Legion, and now he had mastered the power of Valen City and became the new leader of the Griffin Legion.
In addition, Lawrence is deeply favored by His Majesty the King, and if he can be rightfully recognized as a prince, he really has a hope of becoming a king.
"Brian, you've offended Ashburn, and it looks like we're going to have a hard time trying not to be good friends. Lawrence looked at Han Shuo deeply and said, "At present, I have a good position in my hands, if you want, I can help you and let you quickly rise to the top in the army, this does not conflict with your identity in the dark curtain, what do you think?"
