Chapter 137: Marshall the Thief
Just as Muchen waited for Marshall.
Two players walked into the tavern and went straight to the bar, just like Mu Chen's purpose.
It's all about hiring thieves and heading to Nighttown.
The bartender told them.
There are no thieves who stop by Nighttown, and if they are willing to pay more, there are thieves who are willing to go.
The two players discussed it in a low voice.
Maybe it was because of the shyness of the pocket, and finally decided not to hire.
Looking at the backs of the two players leaving, Mu Chen's eyes showed a touch of thoughtfulness.
Wait an hour for it to pass.
Marshall arrived on time.
He was twenty-five or sixteen years old, wearing a black mask, a night coat, and a coat of animal scale and skin armor, with a dagger and a hand crossbow hanging from his waist, and a concealed weapon pouch and a crossbow quiver behind his back.
Standard thief dress.
Marshall walked into the store, went to the bar, and asked the bartender for a large glass of ale.
When the bartender poured him wine, he told Mu Chen about the preparations for hiring him.
Marshall turned his head to look at Mu Chen.
Then, he came to Mu Chen with a beer and sat down.
"Listen to the bartender, you're going to hire me to Nighttown?"
"That's right."
"How much are you going to give?"
"How much do you want?"
Marshall muttered, "Two thousand? ”
"Yes."
"Okay, I'm going to leave tonight, can you go?"
"Yes."
Marshall took a long sip of beer, exhaled a long breath of satisfaction, and said, "You're not a thief, what are you going to do in Nighttown?" ”
"Find someone."
"Who, maybe I know you, and I can help you find it." He said.
"Sword and Rose Tavernkeeper's wife."
"So you're looking for her, yes, I should have thought of it, going to Nightlight Town to find someone, who else can I find besides her?" Marshall laughed.
"You know her?"
Marshall took another sip of wine and said, "Of course I know, I used to drink with her in the tavern, but I advise you to give up." ”
"Why?" Mu Chen was curious.
"This world is dangerous, the wild is full of monsters, dead people are common, there is still hope of being alive after being missing for a day or two, but after being missing for three years, the possibility of being alive is very small."
Marshall raised his glass and poured a large sip of beer into his mouth.
He continued: "It would be cruel to say that, but she is probably dead, and it is time for Paul to give up. ”
"Time can heal the pain, a year or two, he may feel uncomfortable, and after eight or nine years, he will feel better, and then he will find a young and beautiful one, just find it."
"He loves her so much that I'm afraid he'll never forget it for the rest of his life."
"Don't be stupid, everyone is a man, it's our nature to be greedy for money and lustful, and love is to deceive fools."
After Marshall finished speaking, he drank all the beer in the oak cup in one go.
He yelled at the bartender, "One more drink!" ”
Then, Marshall turned his head to look at Mu Chen and asked, "Where did I say just now?" ”
"Love is a fool." Mu Chen said.
"Oh, yes! Love is a fool, you must not believe it! ”
Mu Chen said in a deep voice: "I still want to go to Night Town. ”
"Okay, if you want, I just want to earn your two thousand gold coins."
Marshall smiled and said:
"For the sake of the gold coins you gave me, I'll give you a drink, what do you want to drink?"
"Ginger ale."
Mu Chen is also not polite.
"Alright, bartender, another glass of ginger ale."
"Okay."
The bartender responded.
Mu Chen took the opportunity to ask: "By the way, do you know the reason for the martial law in Night Town?" ”
"I don't know, I don't want to know, anyway, I just don't have to move unhindered, and I'm too lazy to care so much."
Marshall suddenly smiled and said:
"Maybe the thieves' union is sympathetic to us, so that's why they gave this strange order.
If you are not a thief, you must be accompanied by a thief to enter the town, which is obviously to make us earn more money. ”
Mu Chen also smiled and said, "It seems that the benefits of the thieves' union are quite good." ”
"It's just so-so.
Truth be told, the benefits are not as good as those of the Assassin Guild and the Killer Guild, which make money.
We don't make much money in the thieves' guild either. ”
After saying that, Marshall sighed and looked melancholy.
At this time, the bartender came over with a large glass of malt beer and ginger ale.
Marshall was a drinker.
I got the beer, gurgled and dried most of it in one go.
In addition to his love of drinking, he is also quite talkative.
Marshall said to Mu Chen, "You said you wanted to go to Night Town, I thought you wanted to go treasure hunting." ”
"What treasure?"
Mu Chen asked again.
This was the second time he had heard this answer.
The first time was from the bartender's mouth.
The second time was Marshall.
Like, as long as they go to Nighttown, they default to treasure hunting.
And the two players who came here and were going to hire a thief guide went to Night Town, as if they were also looking for treasure.
What treasures are there in Nighttown?
"I don't know, I don't know how long it started, it seems like it started this week.
There are rumors on the streets that there is treasure buried in Night Town.
Isn't that? If there was a treasure, it would have been dug up by the thieves' union a long time ago, and it would be the turn of outsiders? ”
Marshall said with a look of disdain.
"Where did the rumors come from?"
Mu Chen asked.
Marshall replied, "It's the Flame Rose Tavern, a gathering place for strangers like you, and I don't know if you've been there." ”
Stranger.
It is the name given to players by the natives of the Dawning World.
Just as the player can tell the NPCs in the crowd at a glance.
NPCs can also recognize the player at a glance.
Hear the Flame Rose Tavern.
Mu Chen was stunned.
"Is it ......?"
A flash of inspiration flashed through his mind.
He got up and said to Marshall, "I'll leave for a while and I'll be back right away." ”
"yes, okay."
Marshall took a sip of beer and didn't forget to tell Mu Chen: "Remember, let's leave at ten o'clock in the evening, don't be late, I'll leave when I get there, I won't wait for you, you watch the time yourself." ”
"Don't worry, I won't be late."
Let's talk about it.
Mu Chen leaves the Sewage Alley Tavern and sets out on the road to the Flame Rose Tavern.
Flame Rose is an upscale tavern.
The environment is good, the things are good and cheap, and it is close to the resurrection point of the town where players gather.
Very popular with Flames players.
In his previous life, he came to Flame City, and he also came to Flame Rose a few times.
Familiar with the road and found the right place.
Walk through the door of the Flame Rose Tavern.
I heard a player in the tavern shouting:
"The treasure hunt group recruits priests and mages, and the level is required to be level 15 or above, and female players are preferred."
"Three musketeer guilds, recruit strong melee players, meat shield players, male and female, unlimited number, explore together to find the treasure of the Blood Seal King, find the treasure and divide it equally!"
"Blood Seal King Treasure Map, a 500 gold coin, Tong Su is not bullied, come and buy it!"
