Section 193 Interrogation
"Hehe, the main thing is that the goblin mines are powerful, they haven't seen them before, so they suffered a big loss!" The old evil smiled and said: "It's a pity that the mines are too difficult to build, and the main raw materials have to be imported from the dwarves, the next time I have a chance, I have to trade directly with them, don't get it from the old guy, don't talk about it, it's in vain." ”
"Yes, we are so close to the dwarves here, it is better to import them directly from the dwarven kingdom faster. Lan Fake also nodded and said, "By the way, what are you going to do with that kraken?"
"I'll talk about it later. The old evil said helplessly: "She has a deep hatred for the elf clan, and she would rather die than be saved by the elves." ”
"But on her way home, for example, she passed through the territory of the elves, even if she didn't want to, she would definitely have to be entertained?" said Lan Fake amusedly.
"I know, but I can't help it, who called this little girl very stubborn? I can only see if there is a chance to send her back by sea in the future!" said the old evil shrug helplessly.
"Hehe, but what surprised me the most about this incident was your shit luck!" Lan Faco then smiled bitterly, "Who would have thought that those bastards would dare to smuggle the Kraken? If I had known this, I would have been the first to strike!"
"Haha!" The old evil couldn't help laughing and said, "Actually, I didn't expect it, but I was just curious about why there was a sound of water in that carriage, so I quietly went to see it, and I didn't think that they would find out." As a result, this conflict was caused, and fortunately I sat down and prepared in advance, otherwise, we would have to suffer a big loss if we started a war with these guys in a hurry!"
"So, you're in luck!" said Lan Faco then laughed.
"Hehe, I'm lucky!" said the old evil smugly.
At this moment, Paz suddenly walked in and said to the old evil: "Master, the captives and their goods have been packed, and our men are left to clean up the battlefield." ”
"Very good!" the old evil suddenly asked, "What kind of goods are they carrying?"
"They are all very valuable magic materials, special to the Empire of Light, obviously, they are going to sell to the dwarves, and the dwarves' senior casting masters want to use them. Paz immediately said excitedly: "Master, don't look at the things are just a few carriages, but they are very valuable, according to my preliminary estimate, it is worth no less than 200,000 gold coins!"
After all, Paz is a mage, and he is also proficient in alchemy, and he is definitely an expert in this way, since he said so, then he must not be wrong. Hearing that he had made another stroke, the old evil was in a better mood, and then he immediately ordered: "Great, put everything away for me, don't break it!"
"Yes, don't worry!" Paz nodded hurriedly, and then he saw that the old evil was in a good mood, so he said cautiously: "Master, there are some materials in here, which I need to refine No. 4, and there are some I have long wanted to get, but I have never been able to afford them, you see~"
The old evil was unusually generous to his subordinates, so he waved his hand directly and said, "Go get it yourself!"
"Thank you, master!" Paz was immediately moved. You know, even Paz has not been treated so well by the original owner.
Although the old evil arrested him and forced him to be a slave, the old evil really didn't say anything to him, although he forced him to make No. 4 all night. But whenever Paz was free and wanted to get some experiments of his own, the old evil never asked him what materials he wanted, and no matter how much he needed, almost all of them could be satisfied, although Paz knew that the old evil was using the old mage's things to supply him, but he was still very grateful. Because he knew that the reason why the old mage was willing to give him so many valuable things was that the old evil had played a huge role in it.
Besides, today, the old evil didn't even ask, and let Paz choose those precious materials by himself. In fact, despite carrying the name of a slave, he is the steward of the old evil castle. Regardless of his status or treatment, the old evil did not treat him badly, at least countless times stronger than his previous master. To have such a generous host who trusted him so much, Paz thought he was content.
The old evil didn't care about Path's thanks, but turned and sat down on a large chair, and then commanded, "Okay, now get me that old fellow, and I'll ask him what the hell is going on!"
"Yes!" Paz hurriedly agreed, and then turned to go out, and there was not much time left. Paz and the Cyclops King Salas came in together, and Salas carried the old guy who had been tied up in a cobweb, and when he came in, he threw the old guy on the ground.
The old man had already been frightened into a coma by the Demon Explosion Spider, but after such a fall, he woke up again. Then he looked around and immediately realized that he was in a bad situation.
However, this guy is obviously a person with a lot of status, and he didn't panic after understanding that the situation was not good, but took the initiative to smile first: "Your Excellency, you can defeat us all unscathed, even though we are opponents, I have to say, you are amazing!"
"Thank you for the compliment!" said the old evil lukewarmly, "But it's useless to say that, let's be serious." “
"Okay!" the old man smiled and said, "So where do we start?"
"Let's start with your identity, right?" said with a smile from the old evil: "Judging by your bearing and demeanor, it seems that you have an extraordinary background! Judging from your strength, you should at least be an auxiliary bishop, right?"
"Hehe, I'm sorry, you underestimate me!" the old man suddenly said proudly: "I am an overseer!"
When the old evil heard this, he was taken aback slightly, and he realized that he really underestimated the other party. You know, in the Empire of Light, the country is completely ruled by the church, and the country is divided into twelve provinces, and the chief of each province is called the cardinal archbishop, under which there are four overlords, who are in charge of religious, financial, military, and ordinary administrative matters. Below them, the head of each region is the archbishop, and the deputy of the archbishop is the deputy.
Don't look at the archbishop and the overarch, they are only one level apart, but there is an essential difference, you know, the exarchate is only four in each province, but there are at least dozens of archbishops, as for the vicar, there are at least a few hundred people in a province.
In other words, the vicar is only the governor of a small region, but the overarch is a big man who holds real power in a province. Obviously, the old evil far underestimated the identity of the old man. However, although the identity of the old man is high enough, he can't scare the old evil, after all, the old evil is a madman who doesn't even pay attention to Huang Yanjing. Therefore, when he heard the identity of the old man, he did not mean to be shocked, but just gave a faint sigh of gratitude, and continued to ask: "Then what is your name?
"Ahem!" Seeing that the old evil didn't seem to be intimidated by his identity, the old man had to cough awkwardly twice, and then avoided the old evil's question, and said instead: "Your Excellency, I don't think it will do you any good to know my identity, and maybe it will cause you unnecessary trouble. In fact, I have a great proposal for both of us, I wonder if you would be interested?"
Of course, the old evil didn't dare to be interested in this, because he could completely guess what the other party was going to do, it was nothing more than buying himself. However, the old evil did not directly refuse, because he wanted to know where the other party's bottom line was, so that he could deduce the power and energy of the person behind the other party based on this general idea. So he pretended to be interested and said, "Okay, let's hear it!"
"It's very simple, you let me go, and exchange that banshee to us, and promise that you will never leak this matter!So~" The old man smiled and said, "I am willing to pay you a reward of 100,000 gold coins!Your Excellency, even if you sell this kraken secretly, or return it to the elves, they will definitely not give you such a rich reward, right?"
As soon as he made a move, it was 100,000 yuan, and the old evil was a person who had seen a lot of money, and he couldn't help but be slightly taken aback, but he immediately asked again, "Then what about that batch of goods?"
"Hehe, of course it's all your Excellency!" the old man said indifferently. It's as if he didn't send out 200,000 gold coins, but a pile of garbage. The old man was so arrogant, even the old evil and Lan Fake were somewhat moved.
Lan Fake couldn't help but interject on the side: "Good girl, it's really rich, it adds up to 300,000 gold coins, shouldn't you be fooling us?"
"Absolutely not!" the old man immediately said solemnly: "You must also know how serious the smuggling of the kraken is, once the incident happens, not only will we be beheaded all over the house, but even the master behind us will not be able to escape." It's a big deal involving thousands of heads, do I dare to fool you?"
Old Evil and Blue Fake glanced at each other, and they both saw each other's shock at the news from each other's eyes. Obviously, from the old man's tone, it has been clearly explained that this is an extremely huge conspiracy, and the quality of the people involved must be quite high, otherwise so many people would not be involved!
If it were someone else, I was afraid that I would really not dare to continue asking, for fear of causing a catastrophe. But the old evil was not afraid of things, not only was he not intimidated by this news, but aroused a strong curiosity, and directly continued to ask: "How much trouble have you caused? A kraken won't toss thousands of heads, right?"
