Chapter 448: True Evil (10,000 Words Big Chapter Subscription Request)

"Marilyn, Lau Ansha, Sylvanus, Jody, Cable, Ondur...... Do you know what this adventure party member you killed meant to Tether? Or do you know what they've done in the past and what they mean to the country? After a long silence, Yin Erminster asked in an extremely heavy tone.

Zuo Siman shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly: "What does this have to do with me?" It is enough for me to know that they are my enemies. I believe you should know best what I will do when dealing with the enemy. In particular, this kind of guy, which can cause violent social upheaval, division and hatred, must be nipped in the bud, not allowed to continue to learn and grow. If you think it's a pity that they died, you can go back and find a way to resurrect them one by one. I believe that it is not difficult for you to perform a few wishing techniques, right? But remember, don't let these people show up on my turf. Otherwise, next time it will be more than just destroying the body. ”

"So the reason you showed up and did it yourself is that they're too threatening?" Yin Erminster continued to probe tentatively.

He is now desperate to understand Zuo Si's way of thinking and acting, to ensure that similar tragedies do not happen again.

As for using wishing to resurrect those who have already died...... I'm sorry, but this great sage of the Shadow Valley won't do it.

And I feel that it is disrupting the cycle of life and death and the balance of nature. Otherwise, the eldest of the Seven Sisters of the Northlands, Hiren, would not still be in a ghost state now.

In fact, although there are many means that can bring people back from the dead, there are often many complicated things involved when they are actually used.

For example, some resurrection spells require the consent of the deceased. And once the deceased goes to the kingdom of God and transforms into a prayer, unless there is a strong obsession or hatred, there is a high probability that they will refuse to be resurrected.

After all, what most mortals pursue is to be able to go to the realm of the gods after death and live that dream life in an immortal form.

Now that you have obtained everything you have always dreamed of, why go back to the mortal world to suffer?

In addition, gods like the god of death, the gods of nature, and the gods who tend to be orderly, they themselves do not approve of the resurrection of the dead, and they will strictly restrict their priests and Druyin from performing such magic.

Only high-level mages who don't care about the teachings of the gods, or gods like the goddess of wealth, who do things for money, can provide resurrection services on a large scale.

However, the Goddess of Magic is clearly neutral towards resurrecting the dead, neither encouraging nor prohibiting it.

So it is possible that Yin Erminster simply thought that resurrecting the dead was a wrong act in terms of ideas and values.

This, combined with a stubborn personality and possibly some kind of moral cleanliness, eventually led to the fact that he almost never resurrected anyone with his own hands.

Even if the object is a very close friend and an important member of the Harpist League. Zuo Si looked at the other party with interest, and after a full minute, he replied with a smile: "No, it has nothing to do with the level of threat. I am actually protecting the commoners of Tesser, from being forced into war, shedding blood for the ambitions, greed, and interests of those nobles. Do you know? Since the iconic event of the burning of dR1347 Fort Tessel, the land beneath our feet has been the subject of more than a decade of continuous civil war. Before the outbreak of war, Thassel was home to more than seven million or even eight million civilians, and the population was even equal to that of the Southern slaves. But now? There are only about four million people left. Guess where half of the population has gone? They died of war, disease, starvation, monsters and beasts, and some were captured and sold as slaves to the south. And the culprit of all this is the aristocracy! But now, a group of people from aristocratic backgrounds actually think that they represent justice, and want to fan more innocent people to join this war, create hatred, and try to prevent the pace of reunification and peace by themselves. It even has the beautiful name of resisting foreign invasion! Isn't such a guy damned? I confess that the founder of the Shayn dynasty, Akaba Shaun the Elder, did use a lot of despicable and shameless means when he took the throne of Tesser, and he did kill many people as well. But his greatest achievement was to make Carlin shirt and Tesser's one and the other, providing a stable and peaceful social environment for ordinary people for a long time, and allowing the southern region to develop greatly in terms of economy, culture, and art. Even after hundreds of years of turmoil, it is still one of the most prosperous regions in the continent of Faren with the highest standard of living. In addition, the elder Acaba Shane also actively expanded to the north, expanding the sphere of influence of the empire to the current Ammu area. From a legal point of view, these three countries were all split from the Shane Empire, and they all have a very high degree of similarity in terms of history and culture, and even the commoners have blood ties with each other. To be honest, I don't quite understand why you would have to stop them from merging. But I can tell you unequivocally that anyone who dares to sow division and conflict between Am, Carlin, and Tesser will be met with no mercy from me. In particular, I would never allow such an act of involving civilians as well. In addition, because of your interference, the entire nobles of Tesser will be uprooted. I will kill all the families who dare to resist, confiscate their land and property, and turn the rest into captives and slave traders to sell to Serre. And then tell everyone that all this was the result of the intervention of the great Impminster and the League of Harpists. It is you who control the Tassel Bajie Adventure Team to divide the nobles and divide the country, and you also want to continue the war and make more people living at the bottom of society suffer. From now on, there will be no more soil for the Harpists Alliance to survive in the south of the west coast of the entire Faren Continent. Because the people will hate and even hate you from the bottom of their hearts, and regard you as the greatest enemy of peace and a good life. When the people of a rich and prosperous country encounter a crisis, the first person who comes to mind should be the government. Instead of always fantasizing that something happens to one or several heroes, saving them through self-sacrifice. This widespread notion is a huge mistake in itself. The vast majority of the so-called heroes sung in the minstrels' tales are just minor troubles. In the face of real disasters, such as the fall of the Floating City in the Nexera era, and the destruction of Mistron Dron, they are just as powerless as ordinary people. Even if these heroes have the backing of a god behind them, it is no exception. As these words blurted out, Yin Erminster's face changed instantly, becoming angry and ugly, obviously poked in the sore spot.

Also being crushed was Harred III. Among them, the latter even threw himself on his knees, clutching his hair as if he was crazy, and muttering some words that others could not understand.

Neither of them had undoubtedly considered what casualties and suffering the civilians might suffer in the war if Tassel was divided.

One of the plans that Harred III had previously drawn up for Zazespor was to forcibly recruit young men from the vicinity and arm them to defend the city.

After all, in the traditional perception of the Faren Continent, when there is a foreign invasion, all residents near the city are obliged to participate in the war.

But now, when Zuo Si peeled back the cocoon to reveal the essence of the whole thing, he suddenly realized what he, Marilyn, and several other members of the team were talking about

"Liberating the motherland", in fact, it is only the aristocratic class that rules Tesser. As for the civilians who bear the most casualties and suffering, they will also show sympathy and even help when they can.

But when it comes to political considerations, they are often subconsciously ignored. If the attempt to unite the nobles to form an army to resist succeeded, it would be a complete disaster for the commoners.

Anyone with a modicum of common sense knows how far apart there is between ordinary civilians and a professional army with a large number of warrior-level veterans.

The latter can easily kill the former in battle, even if both sides are equipped with equally sophisticated weapons and armor.

On top of that, since the restoration of Shaun VII, there has never been a record of attacking civilians.

Normally, after the end of the war, he would have the Church of the God of Justice and Suffering step in to pacify the civilians and maintain order in the areas he had just conquered.

This is also why, after the unification war of the Karlin shirts, the population of the region has increased instead of decreasing, and it has doubled on a large scale, from the original five or six million to more than 10 million.

On the one hand, it was the result of the massive conversion of slaves into free people, and on the other hand, the discipline of the army was relatively well maintained.

Most of the soldiers were staring at the nobles, wealthy merchants, slave owners, and the like, and the civilians were barely affected.

Often, a few days after the fall of a town can resume normal life.

"So the reason you took it upon yourself this time was to reduce the risks of war, as well as the civilian casualties caused by the large-scale revolt of the nobles?" Yin Erminster asked rhetorically with a gloomy face.

Zuo Si nodded slightly: "That's right!" You guys in the chaotic camp can not care about civilian casualties for the sake of your ideals and beliefs. But as the Orderliness camp, I care a lot. After all, population is the most important resource for the development of a country and even a civilization. They are not unsacrificeable, but they should never be consumed on pointless civil wars. I suggest that you better not waste your time and energy on things in the South. The real battle we're going to have is in the Northlands, where noble lords and free towns are everywhere. Only over there will the Harperists League find enough people willing to believe and support you as allies. Hearing this, Yin Erminster suddenly laughed, and sighed slightly while laughing: "You are right. I did make the mistake of not trying to beat you in what you do best. In exchange for the forgiveness of Harred III, henceforth the members of the Harpist and I will never engage in any activity south of the Meandering River. And you are, as Duncan describes, unlike any enemy I've ever dealt with before. What you seek is never to destroy and destroy, but to develop and create, and to change people's existing perceptions, worldviews, and values. In my opinion, this is much more terrifying than the traditional evil organizations such as the Santarin Society, the Worship of the Dragon, and the Red Mage. You will take the world to a future that even the gods cannot predict and control. Zuo Si rolled his eyes disdainfully: "Ha! Don't talk as if you could have anticipated and controlled everything before I came into this world. If you could do this, the second generation of the Goddess of Magic would not have died so miserably, and Hiren would not have been killed by the powerful Red Dragon to protect the Valley of Shadows. You're just used to your current environment, and you don't want to step out of that comfort zone that feels familiar. This situation is not unique to you, but it is reflected in many people. It's just that ordinary people don't have enough strength to change the environment, so they can only try to adapt to the changes in the environment. Looking at what the Harpists League has done since its inception, almost most of the actions have ended up with the goal of maintaining the status quo and the ridiculous balance. In other words, you are artificially maintaining this comfort zone without changing too drastically. You may not be aware of it, but that's what it turns out to be. ”

"You're accusing me of being selfish?" Yin Erminster subconsciously frowned.

"No, I'm just reminding you to pay more attention to the changes in your mind and subconscious mind so that you can understand what you really want and what you want. After all, the struggle between us is not limited to politics, but also to spiritual, philosophical, and cognitive aspects. If one day you accidentally get into a nervous breakdown and go crazy with me, it will be too boring. You must know that in this world, it is not easy to find an opponent who is completely opposite to yourself. I sincerely hope that you can live well, and then always oppose me, so that I can constantly improve my thoughts, and constantly surpass myself to become stronger, perfect, and invulnerable. As he said this, Zuo Si's eyes flashed with a light that seemed to be able to see through everything, and the powerful blue mana that symbolized the power of the mind was surging wildly in his body.

Yin Erminster also seemed to sense something, and solemnly bowed slightly in response, "It's my honor to be the enemy of a traveling mage like you. Don't worry. I have lived far too long, and I have experienced countless births and deaths, even witnesses to the death of the God I serve. Nothing in this world can knock me down. And I want to see how much a country can prosper and grow under your rule. ”

"In that case, let's wait and see." After that, Zuo Si kicked Harred III, who was lying on the ground for a long time and did not move: "Don't play dead, you can leave now." ”

"Let's go? Where to? Harred III looked up with a blank expression. You don't need to ask to know that the conversation between the two just now caused him an unimaginable psychological blow, so much so that he acted like he had lost his soul.

"I'm sorry, I hurt you. Come with me back to the Valley of Shadows, where there will always be a room for you. Yin Erminster took the initiative to stretch out his right hand, wanting to bring the scribe who had followed him for many years home first.

But this action of his instantly touched one of the most sensitive nerves of Harred III, causing his whole person to jump up suddenly, and he rushed straight over and said in an excited tone: "Yin Erminster! Help me! Can you please help me resurrect Marilyn and the rest of the team? I couldn't accept that I was the only one who survived after all this. "Instantly!

Yin Erminster was silent, and then replied helplessly: "I'm sorry, you should know that I can't do that." ”

"Can't? Why! They all died because of you! Are your ridiculous insistences more important than their lives? Harred III suddenly roared like crazy, and tears continued to pour out of his eyes.

With the complete collapse of his faith, this guy is now full of self-blame and guilt for the death of his companion, and is frantically trying to make amends for the mistakes he made.

"Don't waste your efforts. If this old man will change himself for the sake of others, then he is not Yin Erminster. Zuo Si pretended to be kind and persuaded him.

As a psychiatrist, he had clearly seen through the mental state of Khared III and the possible reaction that followed.

Perhaps in normal times, Yin Erminster can gradually calm down the other party with his calm mind and gentle drizzle.

But now that Zuo Si is so angry, there will definitely be no effect on appeasement. And that's not all!

Khared III's emotions are becoming more and more agitated and extreme.

"Son, calm down and listen to me. I am also saddened by the deaths of Marilyn and others. But their souls have now entered the realm of obscurity. It is estimated that it will not be long before he will travel to various kingdoms where he believes in serving the gods and be reincarnated as a prayer for the gods. This is the ultimate destination for mortals. Whatever the reason, we should not disturb their rest. Yin Erminster tried to persuade Harred III to give up his unrealistic obsession.

But the latter didn't appreciate it at all, but pushed it away, gritted his teeth and roared: "Calm down? How do you calm me down! They are all my best friends! And together we have spent more than ten years together! What's even more ridiculous is that we believe your words and take the initiative to provoke an enemy who should not be provoked. Now you are not even willing to resurrect them for the sake of so-called principles. I've seen it through, you and the harpists you lead are a bunch of self-impressed, pretentious hypocrites! You don't deserve to be good! I spit on you! Curse you! Hate you! May each of you fall into the abyss and become a demon! ”

"Enough!! You can insult me, but you shouldn't insult harpists who fight for their ideals. They have nothing to do with it! Yin Erminster was visibly enraged, and roared viciously.

But soon he regretted it. Because this move suddenly further widened the rift between the two to an irreparable extent.

"Hahahaha! Look at what you look like now! How arrogant! How conceited! How could I have been blind to think that you were a visionary and wise man? Bah! Since you don't want to resurrect them, then I'll figure it out myself. From now on, we will never have a relationship again! No! To be exact, I will be the enemy of you and the harpist! Crush your ridiculous ideals with your own hands! "Hared III was clearly completely distorted by extreme emotions, and his face was full of resentment and malice.

At this time, Zuo Si finally stepped forward to make up for the final cut, and sent out an invitation with a smile: "If you want to deal with the Harpist Alliance, I can provide a job position." Of course, if you don't want to work for me, you can go to Santilburg or Santalin. ”

"Will you accept me?" Harred III was visibly stunned. Because he won't forget that he almost died at the hands of the other party just a few minutes ago.

"Why not?" Zuo Si asked meaningfully.

"There is no hatred between us, the previous killings were simply because of our different positions. Now that we have a common goal and an enemy, we naturally have a basis for cooperation, don't we? ”

"Can you help me resurrect my dead companions?" Harred III cautiously tentatively asked.

Zuo Si nodded without hesitation: "Of course you can!" I'm not Yin Erminster, and I don't have any scruples about that. But only if you show enough value. If you're good enough for a year, I'll give you a wishing spell for free. Whether you use it to resurrect your dead companions, or to gain power or wealth, that's your business. ”

"Deal! From now on, you will be my master, and I will be your sharpest sword against the harpist and the Yinlminster. With that, Harred III knelt down on one knee in front of the public and bowed.

And his action suddenly made Yin Erminster's eyes reveal sadness and pain, and he suddenly raised his head and asked: "This is also what you expected, right?" Zuo Si replied very dryly: "Well, that's right! As I said, I have a lot of special tips for dealing with you idealists who are not afraid of death. How, do you now experience what it's like to be hated by those you have saved? But don't worry, this is just the beginning. If you don't try to change yourself and give up on the creeds you hold onto, this will happen again and again. I will keep you choosing between ideals and harsh realities until you can't bear it anymore and you start to have to give up some principles. Today you have chosen the ideal, so in reality you will lose a friend forever. And this friend will be a bitter enemy in the near future. I'm a fair person. Since you want to leave an unhealable scar in the place where I rule, then I will leave an abscess in your heart that will hurt whenever you think about it. This abscess will not go away over time, but will grow stronger. It will haunt you like a dream demon all the time, leaving you without a moment of peace. Finally, I wish you good health, no matter how great the pressure and blows you are under, you can get up again and again to fight against me. Goodbye, great Yin Erminster, I hope you will have a good dream when you go back in bed. ”

"You really creep me out about how evil you are!" The Great Sage of the Valley of Shadows trembled slightly, and he didn't know if it was because of anger or fear.

But one thing is certain, and that is that he must have felt the naked and undisguised malice in those words just now.

If Manson, Sazastan, Four-Tzor Chamberbery, and Samast wanted to destroy the body and life of Yinerminster, then it was his spirit, will, and faith that leftists wanted to destroy.

The latter is 10,000 times more vicious than the former. In particular, the evil of the self that controls the mind and has insight into human nature is very close to the deepest nature of evil.

It is not the lowest form of violence, killing, destruction, and indulgence of desire, but it is integrated into the realm of spiritual and philosophical thinking.

Zuo Si smiled disappreciatively and shrugged his shoulders: "No way, who made me a supporter of the view that human nature is inherently evil." In my opinion, a qualified evil person should never make most people feel intimidated, frightened, and unbridled with violence like a madman. Rather, it is polite, elegant, and personable, exuding a unique temperament that makes people feel fascinated, and is bound to be the center of attention wherever they go. He can make his subordinates willingly sacrifice their lives for it with a single sentence, or he can make the opposite sex fall for him with a single movement and look. When it comes to expounding their thoughts, everyone will listen attentively, and whether they agree or not, they will respond with warm applause. Even the use of violent means to kill will make people feel like a stage play is a horrific and bloody art. True evil should be a restrained, deep form of self-expression. From this point of view, most of the people in the evil camp on the Faren Road are actually still stuck in superficial interest struggles. ”

"So you're going to set an example for them?" Yin Erminster raised an eyebrow in disbelief.

"Hehe, I'm not interested in setting an example to anyone, I just think their understanding of evil is too low-level and boring. Okay, that's all for today's exchange. It's getting late, and I have other things to do. With the last word blurted out, Zuo Si put on a posture of sending off guests.

Yin Erminster glanced at Harred III, then sighed slightly and activated the teleportation magic and disappeared without a trace.

Less than a few seconds after he walked on his front foot, Sean VII appeared out of thin air and asked in a slightly playful tone, "Is it really okay for you to provoke Yin Erminster like this?" Aren't you afraid that the new Goddess of Magic will come to you? Zuo Si sneered and asked, "Why are you bothering me?" I didn't do anything against the doctrine. This kind of confrontation due to differences in ideology is very common in many churches of the gods. What's more, it was he who came to me first, and I was just passively fighting back. And you get it wrong that God needs me, not that I need God. ”

"You really deserve to be the only known traveling mage in this world, you really have no fear." Sean VII's hole shone with envy, and at the same time, the desire to obtain the spark and become a traveling mage grew stronger.

"Don't worry, dear friend. The longer you wait, the more options you have. I already have three extra sparks on hand now. Two of them are greens that tend to be natural, and the other are red-black colors of death and destruction. Although this initial color doesn't mean anything, you can slowly adjust it according to your needs and preferences. But if the fit is relatively high, it can be mastered with half the effort. And after becoming a traveling mage, you will have to go through a period of learning to slowly get used to the new way of casting spells. Zuo Si obviously saw through the thoughts of the half-lich beside him at a glance, and immediately reassured the other party.

As soon as he heard that there were three sparks for him to choose from, Sean VII suddenly became extremely excited and excited, and couldn't help but ask, "Where did you get so many sparks?" Shouldn't traveling mages be rare? Zuo Si responded bluntly: "By plundering and killing, of course!" Do you think that the traveling mages are friendly to each other? ”

"I see, I think I get it." Sean VII undoubtedly possessed an extremely high level of intelligence, and instantly realized that these sparks most likely represented the death of the three brigade mages.

However, he is a half-lich and can be resurrected infinitely next to the life box, so he doesn't worry too much about death.

The only thing that doesn't matter is that if you get the spark and then kill it, will the spark be taken away or reborn with your body.

If it is the former, then Sean VII will have to consider killing a brigade mage to seize the other party's spark after he has a certain amount of power.

It has to be said that when it comes to planning for a rainy day, few people can compare to this half-lich who has been hiding for hundreds of years.

Of course, Zuo Si didn't know what Sean VII was thinking. After a casual conversation, he took Harred III with him and left.

…… Meanwhile, far away in the blacksmith shop in the northern town of Belgoust, Aberdale and his party are experiencing their first bankruptcy in their lives.

Because the white bear cubs, Artio, took advantage of their selection of weapons to gnaw away two sets of valuable full-body armor on the shelves beyond recognition.

Among them, there is basically nothing left of the upper body, and the lower body is only the iron boots and shin armor below the knee are still intact.

"One...... How much is a full body armor? Aberdell asked in a slightly sore voice.

"Hey, hey! It's not expensive, it's only 2,000 gold coins. The blacksmith shopkeeper, Tyrone Fulong, grinned and showed a mouthful of white teeth, all over his face

The word "happy". You must know that there are not many people who can afford this thing, and almost all of them are rare big customers.

But now, this white bear has actually single-handedly allowed himself to sell two sets in one day, which is simply the blessing of the goddess of luck and the goddess of wealth.

As for why a bear would gnaw on steel, Tyrone Fulong didn't care at all, but deliberately kicked the expensive high-quality weapons and armor next to him, hoping that the other party would gnaw two more pieces, so that the profit of the month would come out.

"Two thousand gold coins?!" Hearing this price, Ammon gasped and stared at Jasila, who was in charge of the accounts in the team, with an almost pleading look.

The latter was also speechless at the moment, holding his head and responding: "Don't be delusional! We can't even get four thousand gold coins out of it now! ”

"What then?" Aberdell was stupid. He hasn't even bought a weapon yet, so he's directly in debt and bankrupt.

"No way, take some of the valuable equipment and loot you bought at the Friendly Arm and sell it." There was a hint of helplessness in Jasila's tone.

She had tried to communicate with Atio many times on the way, but the problem was that although the other party also ate normal food, he was obviously more interested in hard metal.

In particular, magical metals such as Mithril and Adamantite are never spared. When fighting the bandits, the team once picked up a Mithril dagger.

Ammon and Montaro also quarreled for a long time over the ownership of the loot. But who knew that when they turned their heads after the quarrel, they found that the Mithril Shortsword was only one hilt left.

The rest of the part is creaky and chewed in the white bear's mouth, as if eating crunchy bamboo shoots.

You know, Mithril is almost the same as the finest steels in terms of hardness. A single piece of Mithril chain mail will withstand most piercing and slashing weapons.

Since then, the team has realized from top to bottom that this white bear, which can change its size at will, is probably more powerful and terrifying than any of them.

A group of bounty hunters who were chasing Aberdale for the bounty and possessing mages and priests were wiped out by Artio before they even had a chance to get closer.

Several of the control, charm, and attack spells hit it almost like tickling.

Therefore, it is not easy to persuade such a person who can't be beaten and can't be beaten and can't be driven away

"Little Ancestor", Jasila doesn't have a good way. The only benefit that can be seen at the moment is that there is no fear of encountering a battle at all.

The bandits, who others could not avoid, were like supply packs delivered to their doors in the eyes of Aberdell and his party.

Not only can you harvest some money, jewelry, and leather armor, but you can also feed the metal products carried by the other party to the white bear, saving it from always staring at everyone's metal armor and weapons.

"Sell your equipment? No! I don't want it! Aeon immediately resisted, and clutched the missile staff and refused to let go.

It's a pity that my arms can't twist my thighs. The Missile Staff she had spent so much money on was forcibly snatched and stuffed into the hands of the blacksmith shopkeeper.

The status of magical items in the continent of Faeron is almost the same as gold on the earth, it is a very valuable and stable thing, and can be used as general equivalents or collateral in most places.

Tyrone Fulong picked it up and checked it out, and after confirming that it was a brand new wand that had not been used, he immediately nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad!" A fifty-round missile wand, this thing can count you as a thousand gold coins. ”

"What? Only a thousand gold coins? I bought it for 1,300 gold coins! Aeon waved his small fist and protested.

"I'm sorry, little girl. Mortgaging and selling are two different things, and the need for a discount is almost inevitable. Tyrone Fulong shrugged his shoulders and explained.

Just when Ammon was about to argue, Jasila raised her hand and stopped, "Okay, don't be willful and petty here. The boss is right, everything is sold at a discount. In some cases, some loot can be sold for one-fifth or even one-tenth of the sale price. These are all common sense that adventurers must have. ”

"Profiteers!" Amon cursed in an indignant whisper, his eyes fixed on the missile wand, obviously reluctant.

In contrast, Aberdell was no better, forced to take off a pair of power gloves. This thing is obviously worth a lot more than a missile wand.

Tailong Fulong immediately smiled, and generously said that with these two things and a little cash, it would be worth the money of the two whole families.

After going through bankruptcy and liquidation, the group obviously lost their desire to shop. Aberdell even bought an ordinary two-handed giant sword and quickly turned away, for fear that Artio would gnaw something again, and then he would have to take off his underwear to pay off his debts.

"Alasβ€”where are we going now? Is it a hotel or tavern? Ammon asked, dejected.

"I think we should get a job first." Aberdale glanced at the white bear who was gnawing on the leggings, and the corners of his mouth twitched uncontrollably.

You know, since Adeo joined the team, he hasn't been in the mood to Jasila for several days.

Just as Ammon was about to nod his head in agreement, a half-elf thief in leather armor suddenly came out of the corner and asked in a pretended mysterious tone, "Hey! Adventurer! Are you interested in taking an offer? ”

"Employment? It depends on what price you can offer! You know, we're all seasoned veterans, and we won't do it if we give too little money. Aberdale pretended to be sophisticated, ready to bargain.

He followed his adoptive father, Glian, to many places, so he was no stranger to this kind of life of accepting employment to make money.

"My master wants to investigate the forces behind the robbers. For this reason, I am willing to offer a price of 10,000 gold coins! There are 3,000 gold coins available as a deposit. The remaining 7,000 gold coins will not be paid until the results are available. As he spoke, the half-elf thief pulled out a heavy leather bag from his leather armor and threw it on the ground.

Next Second...... Bang! Crash! A large number of golden-glowing coins were thus exposed to everyone's sight.

Moment! Aberdell's breath became short, and he immediately lifted the leather pouch and said bluntly, "We took this job!" Tell your master that in a week at the most, I'll come back with definite news and ask him to get the rest of the seven thousand gold coins ready. ”

"No problem! I'll be waiting for you at the Felder Inn. With that, the half-spirit thief turned and disappeared into the darkness.

There is no doubt that this commission of 10,000 gold coins that fell from the sky made the team that had just experienced a bankruptcy crisis instantly elated.

Without hesitation, Aberdale took three thousand gold coins and redeemed the two pieces of magic equipment that had been mortgaged to the owner of the blacksmith shop just now.

Although Jasila cautioned that there might be something strange or a conspiracy hidden. But he didn't listen at all, and went to a tavern to eat and drink to celebrate, and began to look forward to the remaining 7,000 gold coins he would receive after completing the mission.

Only Artio seemed to smell something familiar, and a puzzled expression appeared on the bear's face. In the room on the second floor of the Felder Hotel, Xi Manmeng was sitting on a chair, fiddling with the oil mobile terminal in his hand, while listening to the report of his half-elf thieves, and after about two or three minutes, he said casually: "You did a good job, stay in this town to maintain contact with them in the future." Remember, don't reveal your identity, and don't contact Sal and Montaro. ”

"Understood! Rest assured, I will guide him little by little to Shalovok, so that the two sons of Baal can finally meet and decide each other's fate. The half-elf thief looked up and smiled sinisterly.

"Behave well. Right now, the Santalin Club is short of manpower. If you're good enough, you might be able to make it to the inner ring. Simon stood up and gently patted his shoulders in encouragement.

However, the half-elf thief did not realize that it was this gentle slap that had placed a very small and hidden camera on his body.
