Chapter 247, Investigating Whereabouts

"Buy! Buy tm land!"

"I want it all!"

"No, I bought this and want to buy this again. I'm going to drink porridge this month."

Mu Xilong was once very prosperous. In most cases, a vampire lord ruled a territory, which was often more prosperous than the rule of human nobles. Vampires actually demanded very little from their living subjects, blood and work. Vampire lords have more The best way is to increase their income, and their long and eternal life has allowed them to accumulate huge wealth.

This is why Mu Xilong is so prosperous.

The frenzy of buying wave after wave, Gerald's sword also drank the blood of the fallen, and the thieves were eyeing these goods. What the powerful knights of the kingdom have to do is to catch these thieves and kill them. .

Next to the booth, a rather luxurious carriage was shaking gently. The former fat businessman was inside. Since he entered, the carriage has been shaking non-stop. How long has the summer promotion been going on? The carriage has been shaking how long.

"Hey, you dead man, look, you are not as good as a fat guy who weighs several hundred catties!" A woman in her forties saw the carriage shaking non-stop, so she took the opportunity to mock her husband .

"Who knows what medicine that fat guy took?" The man looked a little annoyed: "That's enough, if you don't want to buy anything, we'll go home."

The carriage was still shaking, and there were bursts of sound from inside, which made people imagine.

"Boom~"

"Boom~"

There was a buzzing sound inside the carriage, but inside the heavy curtain, it was not what people imagined.

Everything is an illusion of magic. Ryan sat in the middle of the carriage. He observed the hot sale scene and said to Veronica who was sitting on his lap: "Let's think about it, what is needed to make siege equipment?"

"Ahh!" Veronica yelled deliberately, and then Witch Garland gave a soft cry, stretched out her powder fist in embarrassment and hammered Ryan's chest: "Shut up!"

"I'm not joking with you, Veronica, stop playing." Ryan stretched out his hand from under Veronica's skirt, and then said to Teresa who was also sitting next to him: "Teresa ,What do you think?"

"First of all, we can be sure that the manufacture of siege equipment requires a lot of materials and the help of living people. Zombies and skeletons, the main labor force of the undead, cannot complete the manufacture of siege equipment." Teresa wore that on her face. With an ugly hooked nose, the sorceress sat beside Ryan with her legs bent, and said cautiously: "Also, siege equipment requires a lot of materials."

"What you're talking about is nonsense, Trovik." Veronica said impatiently: "These things can be imagined."

"Then what's your opinion? Veronica?" Teresa was immediately provoked by Veronica. The tit-for-tat confrontation between the sorceress and the witch gave Ryan a headache. Their roles around Ryan were indeed too similar. , so the relationship is extremely bad. This kind of grievance has been accumulated since childhood, and Ryan has completely given up his plan to reconcile them.

"There are three key points in the manufacture of giant siege equipment, which are sufficient venues, a large number of materials, and excellent craftsmen. Now in a state of war, the chaos of Mu Xilong determines that the place where the siege equipment is made must be blocked. , so we first need to figure out which places are not allowed to enter and leave the city." Veronica analyzed.

Veronica's analysis was straightforward, and Ryan nodded repeatedly when he saw this, so he reached out and motioned for the witcher to come over, and then whispered something in his ear.

"Understood." Abel nodded again and again, and then he began to try to talk to the guests who were queuing up.

The beginning was easy, and soon someone told Abel,

What are the places that you can't go in the city, namely the Merovingian Castle as the inner fort, the shipyard by the city's seaside, the necromancer's assembly hall in the city, and the library.

Abel easily came back and told Lane.

"Abel has already figured it out for us. There are three places in the entire city that are not allowed to enter or leave. They are the Inner Fort Merovingian Castle, the shipyard at the city dock, and the library and several places where vampires gather." Ryan nodded, and he hid in the carriage and continued: "Obviously, the siege equipment that vampires want to manufacture cannot be manufactured in a library or meeting place, so the most likely place to manufacture siege equipment is Merovingian Castle, or a dock, or ...outside the city."

"The space for manufacturing siege equipment must be large enough, and a large number of people and materials must come in and out. It is impossible for the undead to hide and repair. Ryan, we need to understand the direction of materials, including enough wood, stone, and a small amount of magic materials. Sitting next to Ryan, Teresa continued to analyze: "Then the next thing we need to figure out is where these materials go, and where is the most likely place to manufacture siege weapons. , should indeed be outside the city.”

"Very well, then it's my turn to go out." Ryan adjusted his mask, waiting for his time to appear.

"Hey~" Veronica started again, and Ryan stretched out his hand and gently squeezed the fleshy feet of Witch Jialan, holding the little feet in stockings with red nail polish in his palm: "Close Sound, otherwise I really want to try the feeling of doing that kind of thing in a carriage."

Veronica just closed her mouth.

Ryan's well-prepared "Steam Summer Sale" didn't last long, because of the promotion of products and the shortage of goods, this grand event was doomed to be short-lived, and it came quickly. The citizens who bought it were smiling, and the people who waited in line for a long time were very unhappy. , They rushed over noisily, wave after wave, cursing and trying to squeeze in front to see if there was any more, and some wanted to find Ryan to make a theory, asking when the next summer sale would be.

Ryan seized this opportunity in turn, and he said to the people surrounding him: "Ladies and gentlemen, most of my goods are sold out, and I do have a little more in my hand, and I am willing to continue selling them." Here you are, but before that, can I make a request?"

"Tell me!" "What does the greedy businessman want to know?" Many people heard that the fat businessman still had the last bit of goods, so they shouted loudly, with hatred and greed on everyone's face.

"That's right, I'm a businessman. I came to Musillon this time to do business. I don't want to go back to Marienburg empty-handed. I've always heard that Musillon produces high-quality hardwood and upper wood. Good stone, where can I buy these things?" The fat businessman Gabe Newell spread his hands, he said inarticulately, the whiskers on his face swaying.

"Hey~ businessman in Marienburg, where did you hear that Musillon is rich in hardwood and stone? This is Musillon! This is a swamp, and our specialties here are only various special crops in the fertile swamp, as well as swamps. Snails and frogs in the field." A citizen sneered, his face full of contempt and ridicule: "Maybe you can buy some snails and frogs and go back to Marienburg? If the road is not broken."

There are two special occupations in Mousilon, that is, Swampman and Frog Wife. Swampman is a professional snail catcher and frog hunter. Their professional name comes from an obscure dialect, which means swampman or frog hunter. All creatures in the swamp are legally owned by the lord. To become a swampman requires at least the acquiescence of the local nobles. Nobles require long-term apprenticeships and oaths, and are only allowed to hunt in the lord's swamp when they can call themselves swampmen. They are often tough people who are good at spotting snails and frogs, and their work is tedious and time-consuming.

Marsh husbands are usually men, but some nobles allow girls with particularly keen observation and agility to marry skilled men to hunt. These girls are called frog wives.

Living in a corrupt environment for a long time, the hearts of Musilon's human beings have been distorted by corruption—whether it is chaos corruption or vampire corruption, the residents here are full of viciousness, bloodthirsty and depravity. The dark ritual calls for the dark gods that are forbidden to be worshiped in the outside world. Ryan thought that if the residents of Mousillon were tried in Britannia, then nearly 80% of the residents would probably be sentenced to hang.

"Oh, my friends, snails and frogs may be special products here, but I don't need them. I don't know how to preserve them and how to sell them. There is no tradition of eating these things in Marienburg." Ryan looked Looks helpless: "It's not a good business, I don't think I need them."

"So you must be looking for hardwood and stone? Outlanders?" Some citizens shouted impatiently.

"No no no, I buy everything, I'm just asking, you know, I don't have a few chances to come to Mussillon, I don't want to go back empty-handed, listen, I have to pay a big fee every time I come here Pen tariffs, I..." The fat businessman's chatter was annoying, and he was quickly interrupted: "Enough! Outlander, we don't have time to listen to your chatter, if you want to buy hardwood and Stone, you should go to old Dyke, he specializes in this business."

"Old Dyke?" The fat businessman immediately signaled everyone to be quiet.

"Sell me the goods, or I won't tell you!" said the person who spoke.

"Deal." A fat hand stretched out and shook hands with that person.

This man looked less than forty years old and had already entered middle age. He and Ryan came to a street corner, and the middle-aged man whispered again: "Listen, outlander, you are looking for old Dick, he is a professional The person in charge of buying and selling, Mu Xilong is a swamp here, we are very short of many resources, so our undead master appointed several people to be responsible for these, and old Dyke is one of them."

"Okay, go ahead, I'm listening, you say, I'll listen." Ryan hurriedly put his hands on his hips, lowering his head to express his listening.

"Old Deckard's shop is just three streets past here and then turn right, and you'll see a huge bat logo. Remember, don't say I said it." The middle-aged man's tongue seems to have been specially trained , There are not many people who can speak clearly like him: "But your hopes may be in vain, foreigner, recently someone has been buying this on a large scale."

"Well~ It's okay, we can talk about other things." Ryan stretched out his hand: "Thank you very much, brother."

"Who is your brother? I just want the goods, sell it to me." The middle-aged man slapped Ryan's fat hand away, Ryan didn't care, he signaled Jerrod who followed to take out a bag : "Where's your gold coin?"

"Hey! Isn't my news worth so much?" The middle-aged man cursed and took out a bag of gold crowns from himself.

"You're talking about selling me goods, not delivering them to me, sir."

"Oh, okay, okay, or can you trade your life?" The middle-aged man suddenly pulled out a dagger from his sleeve, and the pointed dagger stabbed straight at Ryan's face.

The cold light reflected by the dagger had already shone on Ryan's face.

Ryan retreated subconsciously, his face was a little surprised, and his fat body was about to fall when he couldn't control it. He screamed a few times, as if he didn't know how to train at all.

"Clang!" Gerald's sword was even faster, and the butler dressed as a knight of the kingdom pierced the middle-aged man's chest just as he raised his dagger, spattering hot blood on the ground. The man glanced at Gerald incredulously, and died of anger.

"Hey, don't kill people indiscriminately!" Ryan complained dissatisfiedly: "Harmony makes money!"

Then the fat businessman immediately motioned for two demon hunter guards to come up and strip the middle-aged man naked, and took away all the valuables on his body, while patting the dust on his body, he continued: "Come on, let's go Meet old Deckard."

Immediately after Ryan and the others left, dark creatures and low-level vampires came out deep in the alley to compete for their blood and flesh.

In Mousillon, murders often took place in the streets openly, and everyone has long been accustomed to it.

In the depths of the alleyway, two bodies in black robes stared at the figure of the fat businessman who continued to sell, and whispered: "Are you still doubting him? He is just a businessman. Judging from his behavior just now, he didn't accept it at all. trained."

"But I just think there is something wrong with him. This businessman, Gabe Newell came at such a coincident time." Another man in black robe showed his true colors. He was Matthew Bud. This young knight-errant did not choose to rush Even though he was transformed into a vampire, his human identity is still useful.

Arkhan left a giant dark magic ritual on his body, which will be the key to his future destruction of Britannia: "Don't you think it's strange? Not long after the Red Duke and his army set off, this The businessman showed up, and after years of disappearing, he's wandering around looking for news."

"It's very normal for a businessman to be unwilling to return empty-handed, my sir." Another man in black retorted: "He is a business partner of the von Carstein family. Manfred is now cooperating with us. If we Come on, the already fragile relationship between Master and Manfred will be destroyed by your recklessness!"

"I know!" Matthew Bud said impatiently, he set his eyes on the back of the fat businessman: "I will show him the prototype!" Looking for the latest chapter by yourself? You are OUT, follow the beauty editor on WeChat to help you find books! It's really good to read a book and flirt with girls!
