Paris didn't care about the girl's bad attitude, she still smiled and said, "It's full of ...... Slaves! Slaves who have been put into hypnotic drugs or something to suppress the fall asleep to get here!"

Cheryl finally showed a look of surprise, and she also vaguely realized what this fact represented: "Where did the goods come from?!"

"Although it is ostensibly from the capital, according to our intelligence, these goods are all transported from the eastern Duchy of Koch, and they are only doing a little turnover in the capital. Paris explained.

"Explain what's going on, Paris. This is about the future of the priest and the strategy ahead, and no detail can be missed!" Cheryl said in a stern tone.

Although Cheryl's strength is not higher than Paris, as a true believer of Kyleus, she has always put herself in a position above Paris, so there is no politeness to her in her tone.

Paris was also used to this for a long time, and Kylelius would not take care of it, and there was no substantial loss, so Paris acquiesced to this state. So Paris began to explain the information she had obtained to Cheryl one by one.

In Banji's current situation, the Red Robe and the local forces they control have actually colluded with the Debich family for a long time, after all, he is also one of the local representatives. However, it was only on the side of the red robes, and the shadows did not know this, and Baron de Bisch, who was strictly a member of the wall-riding faction, was not very deeply involved.

Baron Debich was responsible for providing the transportation channels and storage locations, and they transported the materials needed for Penny's magic through a large number of adventure missions. And these materials, to put it bluntly, are some living people.

Penny's zombie experiment requires a lot of living people to be able to create enough zombies for experiments, and even Penny, the actual controller of Red Run, can't gather such a number of living people.

Therefore, if you need these red robes, you can only cooperate with the local forces, and the best object of cooperation is to master the power of a large number of people.

A normal population would certainly not work, because that would be too conspicuous.

The other forces of the kingdom are not blind, they will definitely intervene, and Penny's experiment will be hindered or even directly failed.

Then the only feasible solution that Penny could think of was the slaves, they were docile and not resistant, and there was really no better test subject than them.

Naturally, with enough power to trade with slaves, it naturally became his preferred target.

Luxembourg would have been the first choice. They had the lion's share of the kingdom's trade. But they will never allow it, intent on maintaining stability. The Reds wreak havoc on their magical material supply and trade staging points.

After that, the only thing left was the royal family and the Koch family, who had obtained a certain share, and the royal family was unlikely to cooperate with the people of the Special Administrative Region, the main threat to the border, because of national security issues, so Penny could only choose the Koch family.

The local slave trade of the Duke Koch family had enough slaves as materials to support the experiments of the red-robed chief.

And more importantly. They also wanted to crack down on the Luxembourg market for the slave trade. Bangui served as a transit point for Luxembourg trade. Once destroyed, Koch will be able to make a very big gain.

So the two sides hit it off and began an unknown cooperation.

When Cheryl heard this, she suddenly remembered that the delivery task of Bellamy and the others was very likely to be related to them. "But why should they send an adventurer like Mr. Bellamy, who is not well-known and not very strong? ”

Cheryl's doubts were generally reasonable, but Paris just smiled, clearly noncommittal to her doubts.

She explains with a smile: "Deliveries usually require some strong and well-known adventurous teams, because they are strong and the credibility that comes with fame is usually high. ”

Looking at Cheryl, who was still confused, Paris continued to explain: "But that's only for those one-time or small-scale tasks, and in a large-scale and repetitive delivery task like the Red Robe, the situation will change subversively. ”

"What has changed?" Cheryl asked.

"Don't worry, let me finish slowly. Paris waved her hand and continued.

"This kind of task is very secret, and it is related to the fate of the entire Duke's family, they naturally do not act with great fanfare. A large, strong team is a symbol of safety and trust, but it also means an increased risk of exposure. Paris explains.

"After all, the stronger the team, the more well-known it will be in the industry, and it will naturally receive a lot of attention, and a lot of attention will give rise to the same huge trouble, resulting in the danger of exposure. This is also what the Koch family does not want to see, after all, they do not want to rebel, they are just fighting against other factions under the rules of the state. ”

Paris thought for a moment and added, "Of course, the newly formed strong team is not nothing, but it will not be so easily hired by them. And generally this new team will have a strong sense of justice, which is really a hidden danger for the things they are transporting. ”

Seeing Cheryl nodding her head, Paris went on to explain: "Since there is no way to hire a powerful and famous team, then we can only find some scattered small teams to perform this job. They went through a variety of screenings and finally found a small team like Bellamy. ”

"The reason for looking for them is not how well-known they are and how strong they are, but that they are very ordinary and follow the rules, and such people can control them. Even if they find something, they can eliminate the hidden danger as soon as possible, and suddenly disappear a few low-level adventurers, no one will care. ”

"Do you know if they did one other mission before they took on the mission?" asked Paris.

"Yes, I heard that it was also a delivery mission, and then the client introduced them to the mysterious commission...... "Cheryl recalled.

"Yes, the knight's previous transportation mission from Banji to the capital is actually a test or screening process for whether they are competent for the next mission. This task is a good test of their trustworthiness, as well as their most basic abilities. After all, it is impossible for the great nobles to casually hand over such an important task to a group of adventurers, and it is such a confidential task. ”

Paris concludes, "In this way, they selected small teams of adventurers that could be appointed, and then formed them into temporary large teams to carry out the mission. Then in these ranks, some of the duke's private soldiers or dead soldiers were mixed in to supervise their movements. ”

"In this way, on the two lines from the capital to Banji, and from Duke Koch to the capital, two to four or even more of these teams began the long transportation task, and in this way, all the 'materials' needed by the red robes to make zombies were transported here. ”

At this point, Cheryl curiously asked a question, which also revealed her lack of experience and knowledge in this area: "But those slaves are just ordinary people, and even worse than ordinary people's physical fitness. How could they transport these living people alive without anyone noticing? And if there were slaves who made something like rebellion or a plea for help, not to mention whether it succeeded or not, even if it didn't, their mass transport of slaves would be exposed. ”

"Hehe......" Paris chuckled lightly, playfully looking at the wild elf girl who vaguely realized that she had asked another idiot question, and her face was flushed with embarrassment, explaining: "Indeed, as you said, if under normal circumstances, these slaves are unable to replenish food and water, then they will never be able to sustain the whole process of a month-long journey, after all, they are just a group of slaves who cannot even live a secure life. ”

Seeing the purple-haired girl glaring at her fiercely, her eyes revealing information such as 'don't talk nonsense, tell me how to do it', Paris had no choice but to continue to explain: "But in other words, as long as the necessary nutrients for the human body can be replenished in time, then the transportation work can be completed." ”

"So I'll ask you what you should do!" Cheryl finally couldn't help but blush.

Paris looked at the girl with a 'cute' expression with great interest, and continued to explain: "Actually, this is a very simple thing, as long as you use hypnotic potions, you can make them sleep all the time, and a small amount of potions in each box containing slaves is enough for them to fall asleep for a long time. ”

"Next, when you reach the town or rest place, you can avoid the eyes and ears of others and let the Duke's dead soldiers lurking in the ranks replenish them with food and water. To put it simply, just assign a group of people to watch the unsuspecting adventurers resting in the inn while they are resting, and then another group of people pretend to take care of the goods, but in fact they are going to feed the 'goods'. ”

"I see, so the orc kept complaining that they were required to stay in the bedroom of the hotel even when they were resting, and they had no freedom at all. It turned out to be a cover-up to cover up the fact that slaves were being transported. "Cheryl finally understood the whole thing.

As if she had suddenly remembered something, Cheryl confronted Paris, "But what does this have to do with us? Your intelligence is indeed important, but now that these slaves and all of them have been transformed into zombies, it doesn't make sense at all how they came here." (To be continued......)
