Chapter 561 Many Secret People

Since the last time he returned from the impact crater at the southern foot of the Dark Mountains, Gawain has been collecting investigations and reorganizing all the known information about the Mithril treasure house.

This mysterious organization may be related to the giant dragon, and the giant dragon seems to be related to the situation of the entire continent, the magic tide, and the mysterious "black trap" phenomenon. On the other hand, the original owner of his body, Gao Wen? Cecil also has a certain connection with the Mithril Treasure House... All kinds of clues are linked together, which makes him have to be more vigilant about this mysterious organization.

During the investigation, Gawain discovered that there was more information about the Mithril treasure house than he had imagined. In fact...the information could almost be described as a sea of ​​smoke.

The Mithril Treasury is ancient and mysterious, but it has never been an isolated organization. On the contrary, it is active in almost any land known to human beings, even including the fields of elements and high-level monsters. It collects, keeps, Leasing, it trades with any country and any race, as long as it meets the "trading standards" of the Mithril treasure house, the agent of the treasure house will appear in front of you. From this point, the Mithril treasure house can be said to be "open".

It even has fixed liaison points in major cities, with fixed liaison personnel, and established effective and stable official docking channels with local forces—even in Luan City, in Hosman City, in Peipuojiu In the city, there are a total of seven "stores" opened by Mithril Treasures. There are more than ten low-level agents operating those stores, which are still operating normally.

All are century-old shops.

They are doing business like paid treasury and lending. They operate legally and have complete information. After the reunification of the southern border, they were registered with the Government Affairs Office for the first time. The photo of the agent taking the stage to accept the award was also featured in Hossman's local newspaper...

However, beyond this shallow information, the deep information about the Mithril Vault is not so easy to investigate.

The grassroots store of Mithril Treasure House seems to have no secrets at all, and its low-level agents are just ordinary people. Gao Wen investigated the information of some low-level agents and confirmed that those people are local people with innocent backgrounds and clear identification. , and these low-level agents and grassroots stores are responsible to higher-level "regional agents", and the identities of these regional agents seem to be fine. At least, Cecil's government affairs office has no problem with the investigation.

So, in which layer did the Mithril Treasure House contact the agent with the dragon?

Gawain still has no clue, but he thinks of Cecil's business intelligence network from the organizational form of the Mithril treasure house - with commercial organizations at all levels as the carrier, with the officers of the Military Intelligence Agency as the key nodes, the degree of secrecy is extremely high He felt that the so-called agent system of the Mithril Treasury was probably something similar.

The silver-white ring emits a slight heat,

As the magic power was injected into it, the spell solidified in the ring started to run, and a slightly hoarse mature voice sounded in Gawain's ear, interrupting his thoughts: "Salute to you, Gawain Duke Cecil - need Business help?"

"Miss My little pony," Gawain said calmly, calmly, "I have some questions about the Mithril treasure house, and I want to consult in person."

After multiple investigations, he finally decided to conduct a direct contact and test. Since that Miss Melita was already a "senior agent", Gawain had reason to believe that the other party at least had some high-level secrets. Anyway, the temptation is successful, and valuable information is harvested. If it fails, there is no loss.

The voice on the opposite side of the ring obviously stopped for a while, and then it sounded after a while: "A face-to-face consultation...is it a very important question?"

"It's very important," Gawain said unhurriedly, "Is there any difficulty?"

"...No, no problem, the Mithril Treasury has always faithfully fulfilled the contract," Melita Purnia's voice came. "Then I will visit later-I happen to be near Cecil City."

The slight heat from the Mithril Ring gradually subsided, but Gawain frowned slightly.

That senior agent happens to be near Cecil City? Is this a coincidence, or intentional? And she took the initiative to tell herself this, what was the meaning of it?

In theory, there are not many "clients" who can talk directly to the senior agents of the Mithril Treasury. I am afraid that I am the only one in the land of Cecil. It is impossible for Melita Purnia to stay nearby. For the sake of other clients... So, she's actually been waiting for her contact?

Gawain shook his head. He felt that he might be too sensitive, but...

Considering the existence of giant dragons, it is better to be more sensitive to this issue.

There was no extra schedule today, so Gawain patiently waited for the visit of the senior agent in the lord's mansion, and he didn't wait long.

When the giant sun just tilted westward, Betty ran into the study, and the little maid bowed to the end: "Master!! Someone is looking for you! She said her name is..."

"Invite her to come in," Gawain interrupted Betty. "Also, go prepare refreshments and bring them to the study."

"Hey! Good!"

Gawain sorted out the documents on the desk, and a few minutes later, he heard footsteps coming from the corridor.

The door of the study was opened, and a young lady wearing a purple veil and a lavender veil on her face, with a graceful and mysterious figure, walked into the room under the leadership of the maid Betty - it was the Mithril treasure house. Miss Senior Agent.

Betty withdrew temporarily after bringing the guests to the study, while Gawain glanced at Melita. He didn't show any strange expression, but nodded flatly: "Long time no see, Miss Agent."

"Long time no see, Duke Cecil," Melita nodded slightly, and then... walked slightly unsteadily to Gawain's desk, "This city is really changing every day, it's amazing."

Gao Wen: "..."

Although this Miss My little pony has tried her best to maintain a stable and dignified posture, Gawain can still see at a glance that the other person's leg seems to be injured!

"What's wrong with your legs?!"

"...There are always surprises in life," the agent said calmly and indifferently, but I don't know if it was an illusion, Gawain saw a faint trace of annoyance from the other side's eyes, "It doesn't affect the work at all... It's just a minor injury. ."

Of course, Gawain was very curious about why a high-level agent of the Mithril treasure house was injured—and the agent was in all likelihood a high-level extraordinary person, but he didn’t have the habit of rashly inquiring about other people’s privacy, so he just pointed Pointing to the seat next to you: "Then sit down and talk - if I had known that you were injured, I would not have called you today."

"The treasure house of Mithril, reputation is the first, we have never made any discounts on customer service, it has been the case for thousands of years," the agent lady sat down on the seat, and then seemed to be casual before Gawain started the topic. He continued, "And... our conversation today will be very necessary, won't it?"

Gao Wen frowned slightly, "Oh?"

"Let's be honest, Duke Cecil," Melita Purnia sighed, "You took someone to the southern part of the Dark Mountains not long ago, isn't it?"

Gawain's eyes froze slightly, but under the calm face, he was already startled.

In the sudden surge of various assumptions and conjectures, he temporarily suppressed all the possibilities he thought of, and calmly looked into the eyes of the senior agent in front of him: "Do you know what we found there?"

"You found out..." Melita Purnia said softly, then leaned over and brought her face closer to Gawain—

Those charming lavender pupils had turned into a pair of vertical pupils at some point, and fine scales faintly emerged from both sides of her eyes. In a faint and powerful breath, her voice entered Gawain's ears. ——

"The trace of the dragon, isn't it?"

Gawain looked quite calmly at Melita's faintly dragon-like face, and the latter quickly returned to normal after maintaining this posture for two seconds and returned to his original position. Betty's voice was heard from the door in the next second. Come: "Master! I'm bringing some refreshments!"

"Let's put it here." The atmosphere in the study suddenly became the same as usual, Gawain asked the little maid to put the tea tray on the table, then nodded gently, "Go and rest first - don't let anyone come to the study for the time being. ."

"Hey, good!!"

Betty closed the door obediently and left the room, and Melita Purnia broke the silence with a chuckle after a brief silence: "I thought my eyes and scales could at least surprise you a little."

Gawain spread his hands: "To be honest - I have another one with long scales here. She might have more scales than you, so I'm not that surprised by similar non-human physiological features."

This answer was somewhat unexpected by Melita. She was stunned for a moment, and her tone was a little helpless: "...that lady siren, indeed, you have gathered a lot of... wonderful people here."

At this moment, Gawain was trying to maintain the most calm and indifferent attitude, but in fact, countless thoughts were quickly turning around in his mind. The first thought that came to him was to think of the dragon he witnessed from a satellite perspective. ——

Melita Purnia, the senior agent of the Mithril Treasure House, she should be that dragon! !

Then the wound on her leg...

Could it be that the way this Miss Dragon throws off satellite tracking every time is to crash...

The clues in Gao Wen's mind seemed to be connected in an instant, but he guessed that Melita Purnia should not know the details of him as a "satellite spirit". The giant dragon should only know that he had led people to explore the southern part of the Dark Mountains. And found the passage of the impact crater, that is to say, the information point of "crash" cannot be exposed, and it cannot be shown that the dragon is active in the southern part of the dark mountain range...

He carefully considered the unequal parts of the two sides' intelligence, and judged the other party's motive and purpose based on Melita Purnia's initiative to reveal her identity. In the process of deliberation and judgment, he cautiously said: "It's amazing... ... Sirens and dragons are more than just 'wonderful' to humans, I'm lucky to have the opportunity to meet members of these two legendary races at the same time. I'm curious, a dragon... with a 'mithril on its head' What exactly do you want to do in the human world, the dragon who is the senior agent of the treasure house?"

"Don't be so vigilant, dragons are not malicious to the human world," Melita said, "but before continuing this topic, I hope to get back some of the things I accidentally lost - the precious possessions of the Mithril treasury , I know they are in your hands now, and I can feel their breath."

After Melita revealed her identity, Gawain guessed that the other party would mention those rings, he took out the box of mithril rings from a grid under the desk and put it on the table: "You mean these ring?"

"Yes - can you give it back to me?"

"Then we have to have a good talk," Gawain put his hand on the box, leaned back slightly, leaning against the back of the chair, "Let's start with the relationship between the Mithril Treasure House and the dragon—you, yes An exception among senior agents?"

Melita didn't answer immediately, but looked into Gawain's eyes quite interestingly: "You are very calm when facing the real dragon."

"When I climbed out of the coffin, I was already faced with the most surprising situation," Gao Wen smiled slightly, "The dragon really doesn't surprise me much."
