Section 135 Selection

The private rooms on the second floor of the "Red Rose" are soundproofed.

This is normal, and if some fool doesn't understand what these second-floor rooms are all about, he can at least see men and women laughing and walking into those boxes, and then leaving contentedly after a long time. In this case, no one would want the sound to come out. Because of this, sometimes, some people will borrow these boxes to talk about topics that they hope the third party will not know.

Rhodia walked into the box and closed the door. Special leather upholstery is installed on all four sides of the door to ensure that no sound escapes. There was only one person in the box, a young man of medium stature, dressed in a common travel attire, with short hair, and not carrying any obvious weapons on the surface, but with a noticeable bulge in his ribs. As soon as Rhodia entered, his eyes kept looking at the woman in front of him.

For this kind of vision, Rhodia didn't care at all. She was originally a beauty, and she was used to this kind of gaze in a place like Flower Street. She generously sat down on the couch and looked at the stranger in front of her.

"You're the one who came looking for me?" asked Rhodia first.

"You're Rhodia?" the other person spoke, and there were three points of curiosity and three points of arrogance in his voice. The fact that a person like him actually surrendered his identity to come here to see a prostitute is already extremely polite to him.

"It's me, I thought it was Bairheim. Rhodia chuckled.

"How could Lord Bair come to see you! My name is ......"

"Needless to say. Rhodia waved her hand, "I don't care about your name. Messenger, tell me what you're going to do, my time...... I've been nervous lately. ”

"You ......" Rhodia's contempt and disdain immediately had a great effect on the messenger. "How dare you speak to me in such a tone?!"

"Oh, how am I supposed to speak, should I immediately lower my head and take off my clothes, and then pretend to be shy and say to you, 'I'm waiting for you in bed'?" replied Rothea dismissively. "Okay, if you have something to say, if you have a fart, I have precious time, and I don't have time to talk to you. ”

"You ......," the messenger was furious. He never expected that the other party would have such an attitude towards him, this kind of indifference, this kind of carelessness. Who did she think she was? If she hadn't made a deal with the Duke in the first place, how could she still be here and face him with such an attitude?

"Good," the messenger took a deep breath, his sanity triumphing over his anger at its worst, so he put his wounded pride aside. Let's get down to business first. "I got a rumor that you're actually in the palace now?"

"That's right, I'm now the little queen's teacher. Rhodia simply said the matter.

A prostitute became the Queen's teacher! Although this was good news for the messenger, it also made him feel insulted. How dare that little girl do that, though, his sanity once again prevailed, telling himself that the task was all that mattered.

"Since you have access to the court, you must have access to a lot of secrets?"

"Well, so to speak. Rhodia replied equally dryly.

"Well, we need a channel that can reach the top at the moment. The messenger said. "Now that you've become the Queen's governess, it's just the right job. Rhodia, according to the order of the Duke, I want you to report the latest news from the little queen's side once every three days. If a major message occurs, it needs to be notified immediately. If you do a good job, the Duke will not treat you badly. ”

"Ah, you mean, if I don't do well, then Byron will do me badly? ha...... Then forget it, just count me for not doing well, and let him treat me badly. ”

"You ......"

"I'm a fair man, three thousand gold for one piece of news, and five thousand for very important news. This price is not outrageous, right? Don't worry, if you feel that the price is not appropriate, you are welcome to find another way, I will not interfere. ”

"You...... Ha Lu Ha ...... "This time, the messenger laughed angrily. "Rhodia, you are just a prostitute and a gang leader, and you dare to come and blackmail the Duke? Do you know what the consequences of your doing this are? Don't forget, if you hadn't knelt in front of the Duke and licked his toes, you would have died a long time ago. ”

"This time and that time. Rhodia didn't blush at all, "At the beginning, he was the regent, so I had to obediently bow my head to save my life, but now he ...... It's just a thief. Even you, the envoy, don't you want to bow your head here and be incognito? Revealing your identity will not lead to good results. Our little queen is eager to eat Byron and his minions as soon as possible. ”

"Hmph, I advise you not to misjudge the situation. The messenger snorted. "Our little queen is just surviving. Lord Duke will soon be back in Eagle City......"

"Unfortunately, I just misjudged. Rhodia replied nonchalantly. "I don't think Byron will ever have a chance to return to Eagle City. Not only that, but he didn't even have a few years to live. I remember that in any country, the king's punishment for such a great traitor was one way. She smiled and looked at the messenger in front of her and spat out four words. "Raid the house and exterminate the clan!"

I don't know what the Dao is for, but this simple word makes the messenger's heart beat violently.

"Actually, why didn't I use Byron's hand to sweep away the underground realm of Eagle Falcon City. Rhodia replied. "But it seems that our Duke Byron really thinks that he has the air of a king, and makes everyone bow their heads and submit. But he didn't want to think about it, if he really had any domineering spirit, he wouldn't get out of Eagle Falcon City in disgrace. ”

She chuckled and brushed her hair a little with her hand. "Forget it, anyway, I know what's going on. It seems that our Lord Byron only claims to be rich, not really rich. He can't afford the love quote code I prescribed. So be it," she said, looking at the messenger in front of her. "Now you have two options. ”

"The first option is to go back and tell Byron that the little queen will soon send a crusader against him, and I'm afraid he won't survive this time. The second option," Rhodia's tone suddenly became ambiguous and cruel. "It's here to die. ”

"Are you threatening me?"

"I've been threatening people a lot, but this time, I'm just telling the truth. Rhodia replied. "Zhilu Dao, I don't like your attitude and tone of speech. Byron is no longer the Regent, you are not the Regent's emissary, and I am no longer the ordinary tavern keeper and gang leader I used to be. She smiled. "I have built my throne out of ruins, and I have a greater external force to support me. and all that walk in darkness are under my dominion...... Do you think that a stranger like you can confront me in my kingdom?"

She moved quickly, and by the time she had finished the last word, she had already opened the door and walked out of the room.

The envoy was stunned for a moment, to be honest, he had never considered that Rhodia would refuse. How dare the prostitute refuse? But he quickly came to his senses. He remembered that his mission here was not yet complete. Rhodia was very important to him, and if he could not get her cooperation, it would mean that his visit was a complete failure. So he rushed out of the jaw and grabbed Rhodia by the shoulder with his hand.

"Don't think ......" he grabbed Rhodia and shouted angrily. But in the next moment, a powerful arm reached out from the spur, grabbed his wrist, and pulled his hand off Rhodia's shoulder.

The messenger was stunned, and saw that the person who stopped him was a tall, muscular strong man.

"Well, it looks like he made his choice. With a calm face, Rhodia dusted off her shoulder, where she had just been caught by the messenger. "I'll leave the rest to you. Everything is done according to the old rules, and no one cares about a few more drowning corpses in the Lunqing River. ”

"I know, Sister Rhodia. The strong man replied. Then he took a half-step forward and stood in front of the messenger.

"You ......" the messenger desperately reached out to pull out the dagger he was carrying. But before he could make any offensive or defensive moves, a slamming blow landed on the back of his head.

The messenger's body collapsed to the ground. Reveal the sneak attacker behind you. It was a thin, middle-aged man with an iron-tipped mallet in his hand. Then, out of nowhere, four or five more men suddenly appeared, each with a weapon in his hand. But it's clear that there's no need for them to play here.

"Looks like a fool and doesn't look around before he starts. The empty-handed strong man in front of him said.

"So we have done a good thing for this world. The man with the hammer replied. "We've succeeded in raising the average IQ of all of humanity, haven't we? Okay, everybody, hurry up, and don't affect the business of the store. ”

......

Ashrufat rubbed his nose vigorously.

This is the edge of the martial arts arena next to the barracks, and in the distance, you can see groups of soldiers training in a queue. In this era, the training of queues and discipline has been regarded as the most important training of the army, and discipline has become a key indicator to measure the combat effectiveness of an army.

However, Ashrufat is not here to train today, but to do something else.

Now, right next to the barracks, a foundry for weapons and armor has just been completed. If there were nearby residents at this time, he would have expressed surprise. Because there was nothing here two months ago.

This kind of work efficiency is actually beyond that of humans, in fact, this foundry is not built by humans, but by dwarves. Ashrufat was with one of the dwarves at this time, listening to him explain all this.

"Look, human, how's it going? This firearms workshop ...... This is the armor workshop...... This is used to repair and make swords...... This is the latest invention of our Association of Engineers. The all-round field repair station!"

"Only repairs here?" Ashrufat looked around.

"Of course not. This is what you specifically requested, so it's a real weapons and armor workshop. If it is only used to repair weapons and armor, then it will not take so long to build. It can be done in 10 days at most. The dwarf replied swaggeringly. "It's the latest invention of our Society of Engineers, so it's your luck to be able to buy it. ”

"Ah, of course, it's an honor. Ashrufat replied with a smile. Dwarves are usually thought to have a bad temper and are quick to get revenge, but on the other hand, they are vain and like to be slapped on the back. "Then again, I really didn't expect it to be so fast. ”

"It's slow!" replied the dwarf. "You didn't choose the right location, and you wasted a lot of our time leveling the land. ”
