Chapter Thirty-Seven: Finally to the Imperial City
"Indeed, isn't that Kenn. Mousse compared the corpse with the person on the bounty list, "Looks like we need to go to that mercenary group." ”
The next day, everyone packed their bags and set off for Yuehu City, where the Twilight Sunset Mercenary Group was located.
Lake City, located in the northern part of Tianyang Town, is a huge castle or fortress surrounded by tall walls and a moat.
The location of the Twilight Sunset Mercenary Group is located in the east of Lake City, and the regimental flag of the Twilight Sunset Mercenary Group is hung on it. Half a huge moon and half a sun form this flag.
"It's here. Mousse motioned for the group behind him to stop. When he entered the city just now, Lils was at the front, and magicians are always respected, so ordinary people would not deliberately search for him, so naturally Ken's body was in his storage bag. Others do not enjoy this treatment.
"Hey, I'm going to wash my backpack properly when I get back. Lils said with a look of distress.
"Alright, don't complain. Everyone is doing what they planned. Mousse commanded, and walked in first.
"Hey. Lils sighed and followed. What should the others do?
"Stop, what are you going to do. A mercenary stopped the two and asked.
"We're here to receive the reward. Lils pulled out the bounty order with an unhappy face, and at the same time threw the magician's certificate to him, "Don't give me nonsense, let your captain come out." ”
"Yes, yes, Master Magician. The mercenaries handed Liles' mage certificate in both hands and hurried to practice their regimental leader Kent.
Mousse gave Lils a thumbs up. Domineering.
After a while, a figure appeared from the top of the staircase on this level. "Guys, have you found my brother?"
"Yes, not yet. Lils spoke, this time he was in charge of the operation, and Mousse only played his men.
"My name is Kent, and I'm the leader of this mercenary group, and I'm also the brother of the person on this bounty list, may I ask you, what about the others?" Kent looked at Lils with a look of hope.
"I hope you're prepared. Lells sighed, sad and regretful.
"Really?" said Kent, feeling out of breath.
Lils lowers his backpack and finds Ken's body inside. Already wrapped in a cloth, Mousse helped Lils drag it out, put it on the ground, and lifted it.
"Ah——。 Brother. Kent shuddered, and began to cry as he held his body.
"Kent, please mourn. Lears reassured Kent, "But we want to ask you something. ”
"What's the matter?" said Kent, choking up, still reeling from the pain of losing his brother.
"Have you had any enemies lately?" asked Lills, cautiously.
"The enemy?" Kent relieved himself, "what do you mean? those in our line of work will more or less surely form some bonds, and the enemy family is also a common thing. ”
"So what's the latest assignment he's on? Leals continued to ask.
"Recently," Kent thought for a moment, "to pick up someone from the imperial capital, and then send him to Tianyang Town." Yes, this is it. ”
Lells and Mousse looked at each other, and the question went back to Tianyang Town. However, the leader of the thieves has been temporarily dismissed, so who else? Mousse and Lears exchanged a look, and there was silence. The events are getting more and more bizarre.
"Where did you find my brother? Kent asked, calming his emotions.
"In the woods of Tianyang Town. He looked like he had been stabbed to death, and behold, there was a scar here. Mousse stepped forward and lifted Ken's clothes, revealing a scar underneath.
"Only one?"
"yes, what's wrong?" Suddenly, Mousse seemed to grasp something.
"Even if my brother was killed, he wouldn't be stabbed to death with a single sword, and if that's the case, then the person who attacked him would be very powerful, at least to the extent of an overlord. ”
Mousse hurriedly asked: "May I ask if there is such a master near here." ”
Kent shook his head. "Around here, except for me, there is no second title-level powerhouse, and the nearest one is also in the Imperial City, if it is really him, then there is no way to avenge this revenge. Kent reluctantly tapped his knee.
Mousse glanced at Lils, and also saw the solemnity in his eyes, if Mousse really didn't guess wrong, it is estimated that it is really related to the high-level of Buffalo, and it involves a title-level master, this time it is trouble!
"Huh. At that moment, Kent let out, "How can this be. ”
"What's wrong?" asked Mousse.
"Ken still has the fighting spirit of the person who attacked him. There's only one possibility," Kent said as he looked at Mousse and Lears, "Ken was first killed by Dou Qi before he was stabbed with a knife. If he was stabbed first, then there should be a fighting spirit around this wound, but there was no trace of fighting spirit next to the knife, so it was not caused by a knife wound. The murderer should be a master with a fighting spirit, not a knife. ”
"Thank you for your speculation, let's take our leave. "Mousse and Leers are leaving when they say goodbye to Kent.
"Wait, I don't know who you are and why you care so much about my brother. Kent got up and asked Mousse and Leers.
"It's just a nameless person, and the head of the regiment doesn't have to worry. Mousse and Lears didn't look back and walked straight out, ignoring Kent, who was frowning behind them. "Hurry up and find out who these two people really are. ”
Mousse rented a few rooms in a hotel in the city. Everyone sat in a room and listened to Mousse talk about today's events.
"What should we do?" Karl asked after listening to Mousse's words, he didn't know what to do at all, he came first in terms of force, everything else was last, and he couldn't interfere with anything in such a matter.
"What do you guys think?" Mousse asked for opinions.
Everyone expressed their opinions, but there was obviously no substance.
"Why don't we go to that Demui's house and see if there are any clues, we don't have any clues anyway. Sheila, who had been reluctant to speak, offered her opinion.
"What do you think, Sheila's opinion. Mousse asked the crowd.
"Nope. "Everybody had no opinion because they didn't have anything else to think about.
"Okay, let's go to Demuy's house tomorrow. Mousse looked at everyone and had no opinion, "But do you know where his house is?"
Everyone was speechless, and no one knew.
"Hey," Mousse covered his forehead, "Forget it, let's go to the Imperial City first." ”
The next day, they set off for Buffalo Empire's imperial city, Busbaatar. That's right, you read that right, it's Busbato.
The seven members of the seventh team, under the guidance of many people, finally arrived in the city of Busbato. The group was amazed by the magnificence of Busbato, for they had barely entered a tenth of the city. You must know that they have been here for two hours, but they are still surrounded by people and can't go fast.
"Ah, where is the hotel!" said Lils, who was the weakest.
"Wait, it's coming. Carl reassured Lells.
"Well," Lills sighed again, "these nobles can stay in this market-like place, and my God, if I lived here, I'd go crazy." ”
"Do you think the nobles will live here?" Mousse began, "the nobles live in the center of the city, which is forbidden to the common people. The city is divided into three parts. This is the outermost part, the Third Ring. The nobles lived in the second ring, and the emperor lived in the first ring. Commoners are forbidden to enter the Second Ring Range, and nobles are not allowed to enter the First Ring Range. ”
"Wow," Lils opened his mouth exaggeratedly, "you've been here before?" ”
Mousse pouted, and the crowd saw a sign with a picture drawn on it, and the words "No Civilians Entered" written underneath. The painting is exactly what Mousse just said.
"So you're talking to a picture. Lells turned his face, unconvinced.
"Observing your surroundings is a must-have for a good scout, so learn it. Lils. Mousse smiled and looked at Lills.
"Cut. Lears turned his head and said angrily. After a few more hours, everyone finally arrived at the junction of the first and second rings. It's a place where flags are hung. Mousse found a place with relatively few people and began to command the task.
"Carl, don't get separated by me. Leelth, you follow Russ to the east and familiarize yourself with the terrain. Boone and Terra went to the west. Sheila goes north. Alright, let's go. Mousse took Karl straight out of the city.
"What are we doing out of the city?" Karl asked, confused.
"Of course you're going to the Second Ring Road," Mousse took Carl out of Busbato City and took out his night clothes from his bag, "You put on your own, let's go to the Second Ring Road to explore Demuy's house now." ”
Jumping left and right, Mousse cautiously led Carl to the Second Ring Road, carefully searching Demuyi's home, although they didn't know what it looked like.
"Mousse, you don't know what Demuyi's house looks like, how to find it, it's just a waste of time. Carl reminded Mousse.
"You don't understand that. Mousse explained to Karl, "You think, Demuyi is gone, and naturally there must be no one in that house, and even if there is, there are some subordinates." This kind of house should be easy to find. ”
"I see. Then I'll take a closer look at Canon. ”
In the house of Demuy.
Mousse is right, there is no one here anymore. After Demuyi left, he did not return for a long time, and his children lived in all parts of the country, and the servants left without masters.
And in this almost abandoned house, there is a dark shadow looking for something.
"How so?" the man underestimated, "where the hell did this old fellow put it? The man cursed and flipped around the house.
At this moment, he stopped what he was doing and listened carefully to the movements around him.
"This should be it. A voice came, and the man was startled, but calmly hid in a dark corner.
