Chapter 1059: Professional Ethics (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

...... Chapter 1059 Professional Ethics (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

At dusk, the gray-robed man stepped up the steps and walked slowly into the room, his wooden staff tapping against the marble floor, making a monotonous sound of "click, click, click".

At this time, the sun was setting towards the west, and the shadows of the night were shrouded step by step with his footsteps.

There seemed to be a dividing line between the last rays of the setting sun on the earth and the dark shadows that came up like a tide, and it was rapidly receding towards the west.

And every step he took, he was on the edge of the line. It was as if the night had come with his footsteps.

It looks extremely weird.

Seeing the gray-robed man coming, the servants who were busy nearby hurriedly dodged and dodged, fearing him was like fearing a plague Chapter 1059 Professional Ethics (Asking for a Monthly Pass) God, and no one dared to approach the range of fifty meters beside him.

Some even drew crosses on their chests in fear, hoping to be protected by the god of light.

The servants were not stupid, in fact, quite the opposite. If these servants weren't shrewd and skillful, they would have been kicked out by their masters. It is simply impossible to gain a foothold in this tertiary industry with high standards and strict requirements.

Although they did not know the identity of the gray-robed man, the aura of fear emanating from him, and the disgusting smell, made them shudder.

The gray-robed man glanced coldly at the servants around him, taking in all their fears, and then a contemptuous laugh rang out in his heart, and he walked into a large room.

At this moment, the sunlight flickered for the last time in the western sky, and then vanished.

Darkness surged up like a tidal wave in an instant, and the entire earth was submerged without a sound.

The gray-robed man came into the room and took a brief look.

I saw a gray-haired old man sitting on a large chair, frowning, listening to an official report in front of him. Chapter 1059 Professional Ethics (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

The man's face could be clearly seen by the light that had just been lit in the room.

It's General Haddou~!

Seeing the gray-robed man walk in, Haddou just nodded to him, and then continued to discuss his work with the person in front of him.

The gray-robed man stopped a few feet away and stood there silently, quietly observing Haddou.

At this time, General Haddou's face was ruddy, the color of health, his eyes were bright, clear and bright, his speech was full of energy, sonorous and powerful, and the whole person exuded a kind of kingly domineering.

Under the pressure of his powerful momentum, the people opposite him were all trembling, and they only dared to look down at the ground.

Looking at his appearance, it seems that he has fully recovered, and the defeat and injuries of the past have not caused him any harm.

But the grey-robed man's eyes, hidden deep in the shadow of his hood, could see what others couldn'tβ€”beneath the seemingly healthy surface, Haddou's life force was running away.

The gray-robed man made a slight estimate in his heart, and according to the current situation, Hadu would probably be able to live for half a year.

Thinking of this, the corners of the gray-robed man's mouth twitched slightly under the shadows - only darkness is eternal~!

Moreover, what intrigued the gray-robed man was that although Haddou's vitality was gradually weakening, the soul fire was burning brightly, and it was better than before.

"It's a pity......" the gray-robed man whispered to himself.

If Haddou is a dark mage, he is simply the best person to transform the lich, and he must have a 100% success rate.

At this time, Haddou ended the conversation with the person opposite, and then waved to the officials and guards next to him, and said, "You all go out." I'm tired, I'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

Everyone was also sternly warned by the doctor that General Haddou was in good health and should not overwork. Therefore, after listening to Haddou's words, they did not dare to force it, and they saluted one after another, and then withdrew.

When only Haddou and the gray-robed man were left in the room, Haddou coughed and said slowly, "Is there something wrong with Mr.?"

The gray-robed man carefully studied Hadhu's expression, and after a long while, he said in a hoarse voice, "I have come to bid farewell to your lordship." ”

Haddou's eyes lit up suddenly, and he shone brightly, but in an instant he relaxed again and asked softly, "You guys, are you going to start?"

The gray-robed man nodded slightly and said, "The preparations have been completed, and I will soon go over to the abbot in person."

In a few days, the actions you are looking forward to will be implemented. We will give the enemy a big surprise. ”

"That's very good. Haddou nodded quietly.

Looking at his calm and unhurried appearance, the gray-robed man almost had the illusion, as if he was the one in crisis, and the person sitting opposite was the uncle who cried and shouted, begging him to help and help him.

This situation is very bad, it is clear that it is beneficial to himself, but he still involuntarily loses the upper hand.

He felt like a knight's sidekick.

And this situation is not once or twice.

He couldn't help but feel a sense of depression in his heart. Just as he was about to speak, he reminded the other party of his current form and regained the initiative in his words.

At this moment, Haddou was already smiling, interrupting what he had just brewed, and said, "Since Mr. is leaving, then I won't stay long." I wish you success, and I am here waiting for your good news. ”

The gray-robed man is also a figure of one side, although he has lost the upper hand, but he is not willing to engage in a pointless battle of words with Hadudo.

Therefore, he only smiled reluctantly, then bowed and said, "Please rest assured, there is no one who can stop us at the moment. I am here to thank you for your support and for the months you have given us, without which we would not have succeeded. ”

Haddou's face has a complicated expression, his face is constantly changing, sometimes sad and sometimes happy,

After being silent for a while, Haddu raised his head and said flatly: "It's just mutual benefit." I do what I have to do, and I hope you keep your promises. ”

The gray-robed man suddenly let out a series of hoarse and ugly 'hehe' laughs.

He watched Haddou's face tighten and tighten, and he couldn't help but shake his head and said, "You can rest assured, the world fears us, hates us, and slanders us, but even that's how they admit that we never break our promises.

In front of our friends, our clan's credibility is impeccable. ”

Haddou let out a sneer in his heart, there is no infallible ally in this world. Most of the time, the worst people who pit themselves are their allies.

'Friends are used to sell', this sentence seems to be a famous saying from the demons and the undead.

Hadu looked at the gray-robed man and scolded in his heart: I believe you are ghosts~! I don't believe you didn't leave a trail behind.

The gray-robed man seemed to see Haddou's thoughts, smiled meaningfully on his face, bowed to Haddou slightly, and turned to leave.

"Wait~!" Haddou suddenly exclaimed.

The gray-robed man turned to look at Hadu and said, "What else is wrong with my lord?"

Hadu smiled and said, "I've been cooperating for so long, Mr. should always tell me your identity." ”

The gray-robed man hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Below, the faithful servant of the High Priest, the Fifth Member of the Dark Council, the Doctor of the Maple Leaf Danlin Mage Academy, Edwood, and Kelley. ”

Hadu blurted out: "Sure enough, it's you~!"

He remembered that a few years ago, the gray-robed man had a secret conversation with him, and then he went north on some secret mission, but not long after, news came that the lich Edwood had fought the dragon. Immediately, the gray-robed man lost news.

And at that time, it was also the Dragon Cliff Grass Family Lorraine who appeared in front of the world for the first time.

Haddou is not stupid, as long as he makes a little contact, he can know who this gray-robed man is.

Immediately, Hadu reacted, couldn't help but smile awkwardly, arched his hand to the gray-robed man, and said, "I've admired the name for a long time." ”

The gray-robed man seemed to be aware of what Hadhu was thinking, and he couldn't help but snort coldly, turned around and strode out of the room--the original thing, but his life...... A great disgrace to the life of the undead.

Haddou looked at his back and couldn't help but smile.

Although he didn't understand the theory of the six degrees of separation of social networks, when he thought that the Flying Eagle God of War on the other side had already had some kind of connection with him before his fame was revealed, he couldn't help but sigh a lot, how magical this fate creation was...... The gray-robed man strode out of the door, and an attendant walked over tremblingly, bowed and said, "Sir, our son-in-law is invited." ”

The gray-robed man glanced at him coldly, then suppressed the anger in his heart and said in a deep voice, "Lead the way." ”

He followed the squire, and after a few turns along a bluestone path, came to the door of another house.

At this time, Angel greeted him with a big smile and said, "I heard that Mr. is leaving, I wish Mr. a good luck." ”

The gray-robed man looked at his smiling face, and for some reason, the anger in his heart suddenly dissipated.

He smiled and said flatly: "I also wish the eldest prince a good luck, after the matter is completed, the eldest prince can go further." ”

Angel's mouth grinned happily and said, "I will remember the friendship now, and the parting is imminent, is there anything else I need to do?"

The gray-robed man shook his head and said, "No need, you have already done more than we expected. I have a message for the eldest son. ”

Angel was stunned and said, "You say." ”

"Don't trust anyone. The gray-robed man said slowly, "Especially the people around you. ”

Angel was surprised: "What do you mean by that?" ”

The gray-robed man's withered palm patted Angel's shoulder, sneered and turned away.

Angel looked at the back of the gray-robed man, and muttered in his heart: Did he find anything? Why didn't he make his words clear. Don't trust anyone, including you bones and sticks?

The southernmost part of the Almohads, a region far from the periphery of the civilized world, has never been known to the world.

It is said that the most mysterious primitive tribes in the world live there, who feed on people.

This made everyone see them as uncivilized barbarians.

For a long time, these cannibals were a nuisance to the Almohads Empire.

From time to time, they came out to plunder, and when others came to fight them, they fled back to the mysterious and dangerous primeval jungle.

The Almohads were helpless against them.

That changed until Haddou became king of the South.

Haddou constantly sent his army deep into the jungle to exterminate the primitive tribes there.

Capture the population, sell them into slavery, exploit the lands of the South, and mine the gold and silver mines in the jungle.

Huge profits were made from it.

It was only at this time that the southerners discovered that the land of barbarians in their eyes was actually rich and flowing.

In particular, many rivers in the jungle can be directly mined for gold sand.

Then more and more people joined the gold rush in the south, and the jungle began to become noisy.

After Elier arrived, he reached the ** of pioneering. Elilda lured her to the advantage, and at the same time relentlessly attacked the killers, expanding a considerable territory.

The jungle is damp and muggy, and underground, a swamp of mud and rotten leaves, and the water is a strange color mixed with rotting leaves and unknown animal carcasses, emitting a pungent smell and occasional bubbles.

This swamp is dangerous, and where it may look like it is full of fallen leaves, it is likely to be hollow underneath, and a slightly larger animal can be swallowed up if you step on it.

The trees in the swamp grew in a twisted and messy manner, the trunks were wrapped around the green vines the thickness of arms, and the dense branches and foliage completely obscured the sky, and the sunlight could not shine down, and the trees became dim and invisible.

Animals such as poisonous snakes and lizards are entrenched on the branches, as well as various unknown small insects, which are colorful and can be seen as poisons.

Not to mention that the air is hot and humid, and people can't breathe here.

This is a forbidden area for humans, and it is difficult for humans to survive here in harsh conditions.

But in the middle of the swamp, on the only piece of land above the water, there was a small village.

The most surprising thing is that in the middle of the village, a rough stone pyramid stands abruptly.

The so-called village is a large area of simple shacks, surrounded by tree branches, in the shape of a cone, scattered in an orderly manner. The shacks are decorated with animal or human skulls and animal skins with strange patterns.

However, these shacks have long been uninhabited, showing a dilapidated appearance, and some have been burned by fire, leaving only black embers.

Further inside, several large wooden houses in the style of Almohads suddenly appeared, and figures moved around in the wooden houses.

A light drizzle fell from the lead-gray sky, and a strong man in a hunting suit and a wide-brimmed fur hat leaned against the pillars of the wooden house.

He carried a crossbow on his back, a long sword and a short knife stuck in his waist, and a dagger tied to his leg.

At his feet, a large group of naked**, ugly-looking primitive tribesmen squatted on the ground, they were tied together by wire tandems, and their eyes looked around in horror.

The strong man glanced up at the sky, snorted in annoyance, and spat on the natives under the house.

The native crouched on the ground in fright, and spoke twice in a language that no one understood.

A man guarding them next to him then whipped the native so hard that his skin and flesh were broken, and blood flew out at once.

The strong man pointed to the sky and scolded: "I'm a god, my god, Lao Tzu has been here for half a year, and he hasn't been sunny for a day." ”

A person with the same equipment next to him also scolded: "Lao Tzu's eggs are going to be moldy." ”

The strong man looked at the natives nunu tied on the ground, and smiled lewdly: "You can find an aboriginal woman to vent your anger." ”

"Excuse me, I'm not like you, cold and unscrupulous, my mother looks like a ghost, it's not disgusting enough. ”

The strong man laughed unscrupulously.

At this time, a large raindrop fell from the sky, and the black dot became larger and larger, and it was slowly clear that it was a person slowly descending from the sky.

The person next to him stabbed the strong man and said, "It's here." ”

The strong man, with the weapon on his waist, walked down the steps, and the man who fell from the sky landed right in front of him.

The strong man nodded and said, "We've been waiting for you for a few days." ”

The gray-robed man shook the corners of his robe, didn't look at the strong man next to him, walked straight to the wooden house, and said, "Is the matter done?"

The strong man pouted at the back of the gray-robed man and said, "This is the last batch, two hundred and sixty." ”

The gray-robed man stood suddenly, turned his head and glared at the strong man with displeasure, and said, "The number is wrong, I want three hundred." ”

The strong man spread his hands and said, "These primitive monkeys are getting harder and harder to catch." There were no tribes left within three hundred miles of them. In order to capture this group of slaves, we walked in the jungle for half a month.

If you still want it, you can do it, and I'll send you another 200 in twenty days. ”

The gray-robed man waved his hand impatiently and said, "I can't wait that long. I'll pay you three hundred, and you'll have to catch me three hundred." ”

The strong man snorted dissatisfiedly and said, "Lao Tzu has already arrested three thousand people for you, and there are still thirty or forty of them."

Do you know why they can't be caught? Because Lao Tzu's team has already captured all the savage tribes within a radius of several hundred miles. We've completed the contract, okay, it's time for you to pay. ”

The gray-robed man sneered and said, "As mages, we are the ones who hate not being contracted the most. The contract is not completed, and you still want money? Now, I'm going to give you a way to make up for the number of people I need. ”

Dahan shook his head and said, "Either you double the money for me, or pay quickly, and we will take the money and leave." ”

The gray-robed man laughed angrily, and said flatly, "What if I say no?"

The silver light flashed, and it was just a blink of an eye, and the long sword was already on the neck of the gray-robed man, which showed that the big man was not bad.

Dahan Senran said: "Now I will also give you a way to pay us the money." Listen, we have a professional ethic, we don't ask for more, no one wants to shorten us, we just want us to deserve that share~!"

The gray-robed man didn't care about the long sword around his neck, lowered his head and groaned for a while, and said to himself: "Well, in that case, you will fill the shortfall." ”

The strong man frowned, and the sword attached to the gray-robed man's neck increased his strength by three percent, and said, "What did you say?"

"I said," the gray-robed man turned around, looked at the strong man in front of him, sneered, and said gloomily, "You brought it on yourself, don't blame me." ”

The strong man's face showed a hideous expression, and he shouted: "Go die~!"

With a flick of his wrist, he would cut off the gray-robed man's head.

This is also a signal, and the strong man told his men to act immediately.

The gray-robed man's arm suddenly raised, and his long, withered and thin fingers flicked at the strong man's long sword.

Dahan was horrified to find that he suddenly couldn't move, lost control of his body, and only his eyes rolled back and forth, standing there like a statue, with a frightened look in his eyes.

The strong man's subordinates around the wooden house heard the signal and immediately took action, shouting loudly: "Kill~!"

"Kill him. ”

He drew his sword and crossbow and rushed towards the gray-robed man outside the house.

The gray-robed man snorted coldly, glancing at the strong man contemptuously, and had no interest in taking the next step against him.

With a flick of his sleeves, the gray-robed man rose into the air, flew straight into the air, looked down at the ground in mid-air, and shouted, "Get up, my slave." The time has come to taste the blood. ”

*jrm!!!
