Chapter 115: Autumn Night
Jane, who came in later, walked to the place where he was meditating and sat down, looked at Lucy and asked, "Lucy, let me ask you a question, who were Severn's weapons originally intended to be sold to?"
"Mercenaries. ”
As Lucy answered, Ryder and Rive walked in.
"Is that crazy a mercenary?" asked Jane continuingly.
"Of course it is, doesn't he claim to be the captain of a mercenary group!" said Liao before Lucy could answer, "Jane, these don't seem to have anything to do with whether Severn is a profiteer or not, right?"
"Oh, I see, Severn sells weapons to Crazy Te for sale, and sells them to other mercenaries. Lucy clapped her hands and said suddenly.
"Well, almost. Jane nodded at Lucy, "Now that the distribution of forces in Swamp Town is very chaotic, and there is a Demon Tyrannosaurus mercenary group, what will be the consequences of him going to Swamp Town with so many weapons as a single merchant? ”
"I guess there's not even any scum left. Li Ao made up the picture in his head.
"Yes, when the time comes, he won't be able to earn a penny when the weapon is robbed, not to mention, he may even take his life. Jane nodded.
"May the Holy Light bless. Ryder prayed.
"That's why he thought of selling the weapon to Crazy now!" Lucy said, looking at Jane.
"Yes, selling him now will not only make money but also save his life, killing two birds with one stone. Jane looked at Lucy in affirmation.
"Jane, can you not sell Guanzi, after all this talk, you still haven't said where his profiteer is?" Li Ao looked at Jian and urged.
"Hahaha~ Okay, I'll just say it. Jane looked at Rio's appearance and laughed.
Liao and Lucy hurriedly pricked up their ears and approached Jane's side, two pairs of eyes looking at him.
"Where is the traitor? He will take advantage of the situation, take advantage of our situation. Jane looked at the two of them and said.
"Can you do it by taking advantage of the situation?" asked arrogantly, and Lucy was also puzzled.
Jane explained in detail, "After he heard about the current situation in Swamp Town, he must have given up the idea of going to Swamp Town to sell weapons, but he must sell these weapons, and he can't sell them at a loss, so he hit Crazy Te with his idea." Through the battle of Liao just now and Lianhua's inquiry, Saiwen has determined one thing, that is, our strength is above Crazy, and Crazyte is still a little afraid of us. With that in mind, the rest of the matter is easy, Severn just needs to stop Madt when we're done with the news and Crazy is about to leave. You think, if we let Madt go, Madt will definitely want to leave here immediately, he will worry in his heart that we will regret it, this is a survival instinct, in this case Saiwen stopped him and asked him to buy weapons, Madt will not refuse to agree because we are present, and no matter what price Saiwen offers, Crazy will not hesitate to sell blood, because deep in his heart he just wants to get out of here quickly, away from us. ”
After hearing this, Liao said unconsciously, "Saiwen is indeed treacherous. ”
After hearing this, Lucy shook her head and sighed, "It's really business-free!"
"Wait, Hua seems to have reacted all of a sudden, he's also quite treacherous!"
"You say it again?" said Lianhua as she opened her right eye and looked at Li Ao.
Li Ao hurriedly waved his hand and said, "What, I didn't say anything, Hua Gang must have been an auditory hallucination." ”
"Hahaha~" Looking at Rio's cowardice, Jane, Ryder, and Lucy couldn't help but laugh.
At this time, Saiwen walked into the carriage with a satisfied smile, he rubbed his hands and looked at everyone and said, "Thank you, little brothers, thanks to your blessings, all my weapons have been sold, hahaha, thank you, thank you." ”
"Since you've sold all your weapons, are you still going to Waize Village?" asked Li Ao, looking at Saiwen. The town of Waize is the destination of this escort mission, a small village outside the Wailing Swamp, and the last supply point to enter the Wailing Swamp.
"Go, go, go, of course, the task doesn't need me to go to the mercenary hall to make sure!" said Severn with a smile.
"Yes. Liao nodded.
"Let's hit the road. While it's not completely dark. After Lianhua said this, she closed her eyes again.
The group was on the road again, and without the weapon cart towed behind, the speed of the carriage had obviously increased.
As the sun disappeared from the horizon, the moon gradually rose, and for dinner everyone had a meal of bread stocked in the wagon.
...
Late at night, Lianhua sat alone on the roof of the carriage and looked up at the night sky, while everyone else fell asleep in the carriage. The season has entered autumn, and the night breeze blows the cloak on Lianhua's body and his hair with a hint of coolness.
Lianhua looked at the twinkling stars in the night sky as she digested the news she had learned from Madner and her plans to go to Swamp Town. "The ruins must be visited, but the current situation is more complicated than imagined, and there is also the task of escorting Lucy, it is too dangerous to take her to the ruins with her, and it is equally dangerous to leave her in Swamp Town, if it really can't be..."
Lianhua sat in this position for a long time, and suddenly said to the night sky. "Mu, you've been here for a long time, haven't you?"
"When my subordinates saw that the young master was thinking about things, they didn't bother. A voice appeared out of thin air behind Lianhua, and Mu emerged from the shadows.
"I've been worrying you for the past few days. ”
"It really worries my subordinates, and my subordinates have also come to check a few times, and they haven't found anything unusual, out of concern for the young master, yesterday the subordinates sent a 'shadow crow' to the master. Mu bowed slightly to Lianhua and said.
"Send it, send it. Lianhua waved her hand casually, and then said, "By the way, Mu, did you hear about what happened just this afternoon?"
"I don't know which one you're referring to, young master, the matter of the mercenary group in Swamp Town or the matter of the sneak attackers in the woods?" Mu asked.
"You've noticed the sneak attacker, too? ”
"Yes, young master, that is a master who is proficient in long-range sneak attacks, judging from the strength of the fighting qi attached to the bow and arrow he shot, the strength is not high, it should be between the low-level upper rank and the mid-tier mid-rank. And from the fact that he didn't dare to meet your companion head-on, it can be judged that her head-on confrontation ability and hand-to-hand combat skills are not outstanding. Mu analyzed. "His sneak attack this time was unsuccessful, and he shouldn't appear again in a short time, but the young master still can't let his guard down. ”
"Well, I know. Lianhua nodded.
"Do you need to be subordinated?" Mu asked.
"No, I have other things to do for you. ”
"Is it about the mission in Swamp Town and the eleven mercenary groups?" Mu then asked.
"Hmm. ”
"It's a dereliction of duty on the part of my subordinates, last time the young master asked my subordinates to investigate, and the subordinates came back without a clear investigation, and asked the young master to punish him. Mu bowed apologetically and said.
"The accident happened half a month ago, and it has nothing to do with you. Saying that, Lianhua had already stood up, turned around and straightened Mu's body.
"This time, the subordinates will definitely investigate clearly. Mu looked at Lianhua and reassured.
"Stay safe. ”
"The subordinates understand. Mu bowed again and was about to turn away.
Lianhua stopped him, "Mu, ask you something?"
"Young Master, you ask. ”
"What kind of person is my father?" Lianhua's voice trembled slightly.
"Master, he's..."Mu Gang was about to answer.
Lianhua interrupted Mu, "Forget it, I want to ask him this question in person." ”
"Yes, young master. ”
"Go ahead. ”
Before Lianhua's voice fell, Mu had already disappeared in front of his eyes.
