Chapter 108 Food
Romanov asked: "Is there anything else you need to know?"
After thinking for a moment, Li Ang nodded, "I need to see the body of the deceased." β
Romanov was a little impatient and said: "There are no corpses, I have already said it before!"
Li Ang was slightly stunned and wondered: "There is no one, then how can you be sure that the missing person is dead?"
Romanov spread his hands and explained: "In the place of disappearance, we can always find some of the internal organs left by the disappeared, and the beast seems to be a picky eater. β
Li Ang nodded: "Since there are internal organs, it must be dead." β
"What else?"
Li Ang shook his head and said, "No." β
Romanov urged: "Then hurry up, that monster has already caused a storm in the city, you better deal with it as soon as possible." β
"I'll do my best. β
This was not the answer Romanov wanted, what he wanted was Leon's assurance.
But he also knew that with this demon's superior stealth ability, it would be difficult to find out and deal with it in a short period of time.
So I could only suppress the anxiety in my heart and said solemnly: "Please, Your Excellency, you must get rid of it as soon as possible, otherwise things will be very tricky." β
Leon just said, "I'll do it as soon as possible." β
After Leon left the City Lord's Mansion, he began to wander around the town, first to familiarize himself with the terrain and to see if he could trigger the Demon Illustrated Book.
He guessed that the reason why the demon was able to come and go freely in the city without even a trace was due to the fact that it was disguised as a human.
The Demon Illustrated Book requires witnessing a demon that has not been included in it to trigger, but it is difficult to say whether it can ignore the disguise.
To date, he had only seen a high-ranking Nasrezm Managar disguised as a human.
However, Nasrezm had already been included in the PokΓ©te long before this, so it was normal that it was not triggered.
A whole afternoon passed, and he still found nothing.
As he was about to return to the City Lord's Mansion to rest, a well-dressed man stopped him.
He looked at Leon on his toes and asked, "Are you the witcher?"
Leon nodded: "You are?"
And then released a faint dragon power.
He hates the play of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and he prefers to nip any possible trouble in the bud from the very beginning.
Behind the man, almost instantly, the hairs stood up, and cold sweat broke out, in his eyes, as if he had witnessed a giant dragon standing in front of him, choosing people to devour!
His attitude suddenly ushered in a 360-degree turn, and he became extremely humble: "I am the butler of the Shupaia family in Hamburg. β
Leon knew that Hamburg was one of the largest port cities in the HRE and a prominent member of the Hanseatic League.
He asked, "What's the matter with me?"
The man sneered, "The lords of the Hanseatic Alliance asked me to convey to you that you don't have to rush to deal with that monster, it is not the City Lord's Mansion that pays you, but us."
Li Ang could imagine the arrogance of the other party's tone when he originally spoke.
He chuckled, "Why?"
The man smiled mysteriously: "This villain doesn't know, but I can assure you that even if you don't do anything, as long as it drags on until ten days later, the old man will pay you as promised, which is a great thing, isn't it?"
Li Ang bowed slightly: "It is indeed a good deal to not have to fight with the devil, but to be able to lie down and receive money." β
The man Quan Dang Li Ang agreed, bowed slightly, and sneered: "The master is still waiting for me to reply, if you don't have any other requirements, then I will leave first." β
Leon waved his hand and watched the man leave.
His eyes narrowed slightly: "The Hanseatic Alliance and the Romanovs don't seem to be very good at dealing with each other, I just don't know if there is also your hand behind this demon." β
"If the Hanseatic had helped to cover it up, it would have been much easier to explain that this demon had not shown the slightest trace until now. β
"However, although the Hanseatic Alliance is a merchant organization, it is also a Catholic country after all, will it secretly cooperate with the demons?"
Leon was a little no-->>
Are you sure.
He only felt that it was a very simple demon removal commission, but at this time, it had become a little confusing.
But of course, he won't react passively to the matter of exterminating demons because of the so-called ransom.
In fact, he now can't wait to hunt down this lurking demon and then cross the sea to the Norwegian tavern to declare himself officially Trials of the Grass.
On the one hand, he wanted to fight for the reward that was said to be an "artifact", and on the other hand, it was also because he wanted to break through the middle sequence as soon as possible.
Once he breaks through to the middle sequence, all kinds of talents he possesses will be greatly enhanced, and his combat power will increase tenfold!
Coupled with the talent that those stored monster wrecks could provide him, he couldn't imagine how strong he would be then!
A few bounties are like stalling my progress?
Oh, it's ridiculous!
After returning to the castle lord's mansion, although the Romanov expressed his disappointment at Leon's nothingness, he no longer urged, and generously arranged for him the best room and quite a lot of food.
Because the Romanovs knew very well that Leon was their only hope now.
After dinner, I took a brief rest.
It was nearly midnight.
The city of Ladoga already belongs to the category of Northern Europe, and although there is no extreme phenomenon of polar day and night, in summer the day is also long and the night is short.
So twelve o'clock in the middle of the night also came very quickly after dark.
Li Ang sorted out his equipment, stored Zhaoxue in the backyard of the mansion, and quietly went out.
Gustas set up a grill in his yard and gulped ale as he ate grilled herring.
He was just an ordinary fisherman, but his life was much better than his southern counterparts.
Ladoga's atmosphere is generally lazy, due to the abundance of fishing and the cold climate, which makes it difficult for people to get rich and rich, but they don't have to worry about not having enough to eat.
He leaned back in his recliner and thought leisurely, "If that demon had been brought out and dealt with, the day would have been perfect." β
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Gustas was a little nervous and said, "Who?"
"Me. β
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Gustas got up and opened the door, a little puzzled, "Maurice, is there something wrong with coming to me so late?"
Morris was his companion on the same fishing boat, a good brother who had saved his life in a storm, and the man he trusted the most.
Lithuanians often have a suffix in their names with the pronunciation of "Si", and names like Romanov are like Kievan Rus'.
Morris said with a smile on his face: "I can smell the aroma of food from a long distance, so don't let me in quickly." β
Gustas scolded with a smile: "You foodie who only knows how to eat in the pigsty, and you don't want to bring some ale wine to Lao Tzu when you come, you know that you have that mouth." β
Morris walked in the door with a smile and said softly, "It's enough to bring your mouth." β
He watched as Gustas walked towards the barbecue, licked his lips, and then tore a hole in his chest and abdomen with a snort.
A hideous, razor-sharp claw stretched out of it.
It was a large praying mantis-like monster with a black carapace and spikes at its joints, and it walked silently on the ground.
Behind him, Morris opened his empty chest and abdomen, and said with a strange smile: "I'm going to start enjoying the food." β
"Eat. β
"Then you're welcome. β
Gustas felt a little baffled, usually Maurice would not talk so much nonsense.
He turned around, and his eyes widened!
Before he could scream, the claws slipped open Gustav's chest and abdomen, and the paralyzing poison poured into his whole body in an instant.
A scalp-tingling gnawing sound sounded.
Immediately, the wound between Gustas's chest and abdomen was sewn up like a zipper by the monster, and Morris himself pulled the wound between his chest and abdomen.
The two looked at each other and smiled, then opened the door and began to visit the rest of the "good brothers" separately.
