Chapter 70: The End
Kaka threw out this news in front of everyone, and these people looked at Leon with something more in their eyes, but it was unknown what it was.
Only Austen's gaze was relatively simple, he knew that Kaka had never accepted apprentices back then, and his alchemy workshop had always been a person, but he didn't expect that when he saw this dwarf again after more than ten years, he would accept a human as an apprentice.
Coupled with Leon's cousin just now, Austin was a little interested in this young lad.
"I didn't expect this young man to be your apprentice, it's really not easy!" Edward was the first to speak, "You are Li Ang, I am sorry for the unintentional reckless words just now, and I have caused you so much trouble, I have time to come to the Chamber of Commerce, I will give you some corresponding compensation to apologize." β
"Also, as the Deputy Speaker of the Council, I am deeply sorry for the attack on your mercenary group, and I will leave this ambusher who did not die to me, and there are professionals in the Council who will be responsible for interrogating his origins. β
The unconscious demon archer didn't mean much to Leon and the others anymore, and Leon knew that handing this person over to the council was the most appropriate option, so he let it go.
After saying this, Edward saw that no one objected, politely saluted everyone, and then took his subordinates to board a nearby carriage and calmly walked away in the eyes of everyone.
As he approached the edge of the enclosed area, a fluctuation of power emanated from the carriage, slowly propping up a gap on the edge that could only allow the carriage to pass through guΓ², proving that there must be a fourth-order professional around Edward who used power superbly.
The smile on Edward's face slowly retracted as he sat up straight, his eyes revealing an inexplicable glint in his eyes.
"Patricia, the madwoman, almost ruined my plans. β
"Yes, although she is also a fourth-order professional, she is too emotional, and she may not be able to exert her full ability at critical moments, and the soothsayer hut has nothing to worry about except for Christel. β
"Not necessarily," said Edward, leaning back on a large, comfortable fur backrest, and casually took a bottle of red wine from the locker in the carriage and poured two glasses, then passed it to the shadow on the side.
The hand that took the glass was slender and pale, and then the man in the shadows said, "Hehe, I feel honored to be able to drink your treasured excellent fruit wine." β
Edward smiled slightly, "I am never stingy with money, as long as the other party can bring me more benefits." β
"That's nature, and what I promise will be fulfilled. β
"I believe you," Edward said, "that's why I'm working with you, but it's a bit of a surprise that there will be an alchemist in this small mercenary group, or a snake from Downtown a long time ago." β
"What does it matter, after all, this dwarf hasn't been around for more than a decade, and we don't need to deal with them, so it doesn't matter to the plan. β
Edward stared at the wine glass and said thoughtfully, "No, I'm thinking about whether this variable will bring us more benefits. β
"Is that dwarf so important?" the voice was confused.
"It's not that he is important, after all, a fourth-order professional who is more auxiliary than combative is not worth paying too much attention to, what I see is how many other related people he will connect with this node. β
"Going back to the question," Edward felt a little off-topic, "Crystal is a shrewd lady, and the other witches have their own strengths, and if the soothsayer's hut relies on only one person, even if she is a fifth-order, she will not be able to survive in the chaotic capital for more than ten years. And the role of other witches...... If you carefully study many things in the past, you can find some clues, so you must maintain the necessary respect for them. β
The man in the shadows did not speak, as if absorbing the information revealed in the words of the Deputy Speaker of the Chaotic Parliament.
"But we shouldn't be confronting them directly this time, so ......," said Edward, raising his glass, "I wish us success." β
There was a crisp clinking of glasses in the carriage.
......
In the area where the entrance to the lower town was sealed, the woman with a blurred face was no longer there, she had always acted strangely, and disappeared nearby as soon as the carriage was far away.
Austin looked at the rest of the people and said, "Whether or not someone did it on purpose, your identities have been exposed, and your whereabouts are well known, and now the situation is already very chaotic, Kaka, how many days will you take these young people to my temple for a while?"
"No!" Kaka glanced at the paladin, "I'll hold my breath in that place for a while, it's better to go back to my own hut, we've been there for the past few days, if anyone doesn't open their eyes and want to do something, I can't promise not to make some radical reactions, it's a big deal like more than ten years ago!"
Austin smiled helplessly and said, "Alright, Madam Speaker is not here, Edward has promised to investigate this matter thoroughly, and I will provide you with protection when I go back, and in addition, I will also raise objections to Patricia's behavior at the next meeting, I hope to make you less stressed, take care, my old friend." β
Kaka was touched by the last touch, but he still kept a straight face, he glanced at Katerina, who was paying attention to the conversation here, and whispered, "Maybe I'll go to you for a little favor in the next few days." β
"There's no reason for me to refuse what is right," Austin said, taking his leave with two shiny knights in armor.
"I apologize for putting you in danger," Yalin said in a deep voice after seeing the main characters leave one by one, "When I go back, I will propose the same proposal to the council, and the reward ceremony will definitely be postponed for a few more days, and I will personally inform you when the time comes, and I ask for your forgiveness." β
When he said this, his eyes kept on Li Ang, but he didn't get any response from the young man, Yalin knew that Li Ang had already made a fuss about what he had just said, although the scale of this mercenary group was too small to have any effect on him at all, but Yalin still sighed.
"I'm sorry, we're leaving too. β
Neither he nor Austin had anything to say to Steve, who had not moved, although only two or three force organizations knew about the undead army before discovering it, there were no secrets at all in the chaotic capital, and others knew more or less about it, the Black Hand Brotherhood was also one of the important members of the council, and now that the matter had been laid out to the surface, Steve should know what he was going to do.
Arin's steps away were heavy, and Carol kept whispering something in his ear, but there was no response.
When everyone dispersed, the Brotherhood Patriarch, who had been silent for a long time, spoke, "You are Master Kaka?"
Kaka turned around and asked very seriously, "Do you know me?"
"I don't know, I've just heard of it," Steve said.
"Listen to old GΓΌlen, old fellow, it's a pity that I've been away for less than four years and he's dead. β
When Steve heard the name, he said in a low voice, "yes, it was almost ten years ago, when I was in charge of the Brotherhood's external affairs, and I was not in the City of Chaos at that time, and I couldn't do my part for Lord GΓΌlen. β
"I don't blame you, Harrison and Hunter, I haven't heard from them," Kaka asked again.
"They all died in that battle. Steve sighed, "They and the Glenn parents are both pillars of the Brotherhood, and our losses were too great that time. β
Kaka nodded, wanting to ask about the other person, but he was afraid of hearing bad news, so he swallowed the words back.
He didn't have many friends at the beginning, and he had been away from the chaotic capital for too long, and the news was not blocked at all, just now it was the first time he heard the departure of a few old friends, and he sighed and said: "Everyone has death, and these old friends can die in battle, which can be regarded as a wish." β
"Yes, you understand Lord GΓΌlen, although I didn't meet you in person at that time, but I also know that you have helped the Brotherhood a lot, and I really hope to come back this time as before. Steve's tone was full of anticipation.
"Well, we'll stay for a while and take our time," Kaka didn't reply directly.
But this sentence also made Steve very satisfied, and then turned to Leon and said: "What happened just now is that my subordinates are a little offended, but these two corpses may be involved in the internal affairs of the Brotherhood, please allow my people to bring them back, and as for the attack you have received, I will have additional apologies." β
A fourth-order professional, the parent of the Black Hand Brotherhood who controls most of the lower city area, can say this, and it has indeed given Kaka a lot of face.
Leon was self-aware, and he had achieved his goal very well just now, and now Steve had put on such a posture, of course, he had to take a step back.
"No problem. β
So Steve instructed his subordinates to clean up the mess, and he happily said that he would do his best to hand over what he had promised to Leon.
Soon, the area was unsealed after Steve left, but people in the neighborhood knew that something big was going on here, so few people walked through it.
Faced with the suddenly somewhat deserted scene, Li Ang breathed a sigh of relief, this scene just now was the most nervous he felt since Rock Town, but it finally passed.
None of those people just now were good at it, and Leon always felt that their attitude did not represent the real intentions, whether it was the "unintentional" of the president of the Chamber of Commerce, Steve's first cold and then hot, and even Patricia's "madness" made him wonder.
But the most important thing is actually the role played by Kaka, the first time Li Ang saw the combat method of this dwarf alchemy master, it was really weird and powerful, which made him a little wavering for a while in his idea of sticking to the mage.
Otherwise, I would "deign" to choose an alchemy apprentice as a second career?
