Chapter 53 Joints and Stocking
Xu Yue entered the door and followed behind a small figure who was also hidden in a cloak, and after passing through the somewhat dark antechamber, he came to a small room with only a faint light. There was a table and two chairs in the room, and a man with his hooded face was sitting behind it, the dim light making it impossible to see the face under the hood.
The little guy watched the door of the room from the outside behind him, and suddenly only Xu Yue and the person at the table were left in the room. After he walked over to the chair at the table and sat down, the mysterious man in the hood asked in a hoarse voice, "What business do you need to handle?"
Xu Yue had changed his voice with the 'Voice Changing Technique' before he came, and he said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "I would like to sell the news that caravans and pedestrians outside the city have been attacked by demonic beasts recently. β
"In a nutshell, the purchase price of this news is three hundred gold coins, and the basic news after a certain investigation is six hundred gold coins. If there is a detailed cause and effect, the value of this news is 1,300 gold coins. The hooded mysterious man said in a hoarse voice.
"There is a certain investigation, but the cause and effect are not clear. The recent attacks on demonic beasts outside the city and on the trade roads were caused by trolls controlling demonic beasts. The missing were captured by the trolls and sacrificed to an altar as a living sacrifice. Xu Yue slowly explained the situation of the troll altar in a hoarse voice, and then he took out the necklace of the troll sacrifice as evidence.
The mysterious man on the opposite side trembled slightly after hearing the news, obviously a little surprised by the news. He took out a piece of paper and pen and put it in front of Xu Yue and said, "Because your news involves a large force, the price is worth more than ordinary news. If you can draw a detailed picture, then I can give you a price of 1,000 gold coins, which of course must be verified by our people before you can get it.
Xu Yue nodded slightly, took the pen and drew it on the paper. Since becoming a magician, his memory has become stronger as his mental power has increased. He searched the altar carefully before leaving, so he still remembered the appearance of the altar relatively clearly.
He drew the three-dimensional shape of the altar with stick figures, and then he drew a rough sketch of the strange symbols and formation-like things carved on the altar according to his memories. It can't be exactly the same, but if you are a knowledgeable person, you can still see what these symbols and formations are used for.
The mysterious man wearing the hood took the painting and pen he handed over and said in a hoarse voice: "The verification time is three days, and if our people verify the truth after three days, you can come here and receive the two thousand gold coins that belong to you." β
Xu Yue didn't speak, nodded under the cover of the cloak and stood up and left. This time he came to this mysterious shop, PΓΉ, is a semi-public intelligence point under the Thieves' Guild.
Thieves are a fighting profession in this magical world, not the kind of thieves who only steal chickens and dogs. The thieves of this world generally play the role of scouts in the professional team, and with their dexterity and familiarity with various traps, they are often the most reliable companions in various ruins exploration.
Of course, since they are called thieves, they also take on some tasks of stealing items. However, in this regard, the general thieves' guild has relevant regulations, and it cannot be said that it is possible to sit down as much as possible to avoid violating the laws here, but it is also necessary to make these thefts relatively positive. For example, stealing intelligence and key items of some hostile countries, or stealing criminal evidence of some criminal organizations.
Of course, there are some thieves who take on the task of simply stealing items, but the thieves' guild generally turns a blind eye as long as it does not cause too bad an impact. This practice has also made the profession of thieves criticized by many people.
Affected by these reasons, the Thieves' Guild, which is supposed to be an official organization like the Magic Guild, is much more low-key, and the thieves' habit of always advocating hiding their identities makes some of their offices located in some very secret places, but these places are generally semi-public to those who know the business.
One of the main businesses of the Thieves' Guild is the sale of intelligence. Of course, when selling intelligence, they will also buy all kinds of intelligence, and the price is good. So this time, Xu Yue inquired about the intelligence point of the Thieves Guild and sold the information of the trolls.
Of course, he didn't sell intelligence because he didn't have money. As early as when he left the Troll Altar, he decided to report the news to the officials of Black Rock City, after all, he was on the human side anyway. And the actions of these trolls this time don't look like small actions. If the trolls' actions cause trouble for Komodo or Black Rock, they might affect his plans.
If he goes directly to the government agency of Black Rock City, then after telling the situation, he will not only involve himself in this matter, but it is more likely that the officials of Black Rock City will temporarily restrict his actions, after all, this is not a trivial matter, and it is also necessary to control the knowledge before figuring out the specific situation. That would be very detrimental to his and Ivo's plans.
And the news of the Thieves Guild is open to the public, and there have been so many Warcraft attacks during this time, I'm afraid that many people have already wanted to know about this news.
As long as the Thieves' Guild knows, then it is almost the same as those who want to know the news. Moreover, the Thieves' Guild has a set of strict confidentiality measures for the information of the information seller, as long as the person who sells the information does not stand up and shout about it, it is basically impossible to leak it.
After completing a major event in his heart, Xu Yue did not return to the hotel immediately. The little girl was expected to sleep soundly all night under the influence of the slumber charm, and he had just enough time to finish what he had agreed with Aivo.
Still wearing the cloak, he followed a road that he had asked the innkeepers beforehand and came to a stop at an inn called 'Sweet Dreams'. After studying in the window on the second floor of the inn, he saw a sign in the lower right corner of one of the windows that he and Ivo had agreed upon.
Because the two elves were staying in the hotel together, Xu Yue didn't dare to use the 'mage's hand' to knock on the window, he picked up two very small stones from the ground and threw them on the window.
Just a dozen seconds later, Ivo's little green head poked out of the window. After seeing Xu Yue in a cloak and punch out the pre-determined ornament, Ai Wo wrapped a small note around a key and opened the window and threw it down.
Xu Yue didn't stay after receiving the key, and left quickly.
After Xu Yue left, the head of a hooded man poked out of the window of a room on the second floor. The man looked casually, then turned to one of his companions and said, "Looks like our goblin friend is in contact with someone. How about Tyrell, do you want to follow along?"
"Don't do anything superfluous, Sid, this should be the one from the previous adult. After all, such a big business, the lord always has to tell someone to prepare. His companion said.
These two people were the two elves who came with Ivo, the seventh-level mage Tyrell and the seventh-level archer Sid.
"I'm just talking, I don't want to face the wrath of a ninth-level powerhouse out of curiosity. Sid said with a shrug.
Xu Yue didn't know about the conversation between the two elves, but he didn't think that the connection between himself and Ai Wo could completely hide from these two elves who seemed to be of a high level, even if the other party appeared, he was not worried.
First, as long as the other party is not stupid, then relying on the deterrent move he made by using the Boundary Crossing Gate before is enough to make the two elves dare not make a move to track down the secrets of a powerhouse higher than himself.
Second, the two elves have not seen their own appearance, so even if they really chase after them and ask themselves, they will at most regard themselves as the subordinates of the strong man. With that void powerhouse shocked, these two elves didn't dare to do anything excessive.
As for the last point, Xu Yue is completely sure that the other party will not find him. As soon as he got out of the inn, he flashed into a house with an open door. The front and back doors of the house were open, but he dodged into a side house, closed the door, hid in a closet in the house, opened the door, and traveled back to Earth.
If someone did follow him, the person couldn't find anyone in the only room, and would just assume that the person had left through the back door through the courtyard. The back door is connected to a very busy street, and it is very difficult to find a person in the dense crowd.
This is the retreat that Xu Yue asked Ai Wo to arrange in advance, for fear that the two elves would suddenly catch up with them and want to find out what the situation was.
Two hours later, there was a slight noise in the closet in the empty room, and Xu Yue walked out of the closet again. After observing in the dark and seeing that no one was following, he quickly stepped into the street through the open back door.
This series of actions may seem overly cautious, but it is a necessary protection. After coming to a place where there were few people, he took out the note that Ivo had left behind, opened it, looked at it, and then followed the address above to find a large warehouse in the city.
After opening the door of the warehouse with the key, Xu Yue locked the door of the warehouse from the inside. After that, he started working as a porter.
The pure container ordered by the elves this time, plus the previous 800,000 gold coins, the total value reached an astonishing 5.28 million gold coins. Of course, there is a reason why the elf took the initiative to raise the price by 10%. And almost half of the 800,000 gold coins were pure containers with lower scales. This makes the volume of this shipment very large.
Fortunately, Xu Yue almost bought out the warehouse of a large glassware store not long ago, just in case, and the wooden boxes of glass bottles piled up at home were almost filling a room in the villa.
After nearly two hours of transportation, Xu Yue sweated profusely and put the last wooden box in the warehouse. By this time, the room in his villa was half empty.
After resting for a while, Xu Yue put on the cloak again and quietly left the warehouse. Now everything is ready for him, as long as the elf's payment can be paid, then the next many plans can be implemented.
