Chapter 248, Fearful
Under a huge bat sign is a decaying dilapidated bar with all kinds of evil skull patterns and blood patterns hanging in it. It seems that there are not many customers. Ryan asked two demon hunters and half elves to stand Outside, he and Gerald headed into the bar.
"This place always makes me feel uncomfortable." Jerrod and Ryan whispered, and the knights of the kingdom only had serious faces.
"Sooner or later, we will raze this place and completely destroy this cursed city." Ryan said softly, "But not now, what we have to do now is to find a way to defeat the vampire's aggression."
"Yes, one day, we will come back here and bring the undead to destruction." Gerald's goatee trembled, as if anger was rolling: "But not now."
Ryan nodded. Gerald was not included in his plan, but after discussing the plan with François, Gerald asked to participate. He thought he could contribute.
What is relatively rare is that Gerald is not a pedantic and second-year knight. As François' cousin, he is also quite wise and strategic, and knows how to adapt. Of course, his devout belief in the fairy of the lake is also an important reason. Ryan now understands why Morgiana has a bad attitude towards Emilia and is particularly vigilant when he is recovering from his injuries.
The corruption of chaos is everywhere, and only faith and ignorance can fight against it. Either ignorance isolates corruption, or you have a firm belief while possessing wisdom and knowledge, otherwise you will be corrupted sooner or later.
Walking into the interior of the bar, the dim light, many spiders in the bar, and the smell of rotten wood stimulated Ryan's five senses. He frowned and looked around the interior of the bar. A bartender who looked about fifty years old was Playing cards at the bar.
"Hi, I'm looking for old Deckard." Ryan tried his best to appear amiable.
"I'm old Deckard, but I never talk to anyone other than the guests." The bartender looked bored playing cards, and he was also very interested in playing by himself.
"Okay, two glasses." Ryan and Gerald looked at each other, so Gerald held out two fingers.
"What do you want, ale beer? Butter beer? Breton brandy? Imperial stout? Imperial whiskey? Mead? Or Kislev vodka?" Old Days listed the name of the wine like a few treasures.
"We want two glasses of 1467 Porteiro Aubion wine." Ryan took out a large sum of gold coins and said arrogantly.
Bordeaux first growth winery, Haubion wine, the favorite and proud work of the Duke of Boderick.
"have.
"Old Daiss raised his head and looked at Ryan's gold coins. After confirming that they were genuine Imperial Gold Marks, he nodded. He stood up and walked towards the inside of the bar, motioning for Ryan and Jerrod to sit down.
"I think Lord Boderick is going to keep a close eye on his winery." Gerald joked to Ryan with a serious face: "Maybe there is a tunnel leading directly to Bodleux?"
"Perhaps there are vampires among Lord Boderick's retainers, or there are money-grubbers among the heads of the winery he appointed, but this is not important to us. The important thing is that Obi, whom Boderick regards as a treasure, Ang red wine, we bought it for only twenty gold marks." Ryan also stretched out two fingers, and the face of the fat businessman was full of mysterious smiles.
If it wasn't the real thing, then he and Gerald would have a reason to explode.
After a while, Old Deke served two glasses of red wine and put them in front of Ryan. The oak cups contained dark red wine. , Ryan and Jerrod immediately confirmed that this is genuine Obiang red wine.
"This is included." Old Dick served a pot of horse meat sausage, and then sat behind the bar.
Unlike the wine, this plate of horse meat sausage was very unpalatable, so unpalatable that it was unpalatable.
"I don't have what you want here." Before Ryan could speak, Old Deckard said suddenly while cleaning the wooden wine glass.
"How do you know what I'm here for?" Ryan asked curiously.
"An imperial businessman came to my store, obviously wanting to ask me about the goods, but unfortunately, I have no goods here recently, not at all." Old Dyke shook his head again and again: "After drinking this cup, let's go , businessman of the empire, if you still cherish your life."
"Can't you reveal a little bit? Or can you sell me some wine?" Ryan continued to try and said, "Would you like to sell me some more Obiang wine?"
"A total of one hundred gold crowns or gold marks." Old Dyke took out two bottles of red wine from under the table: "Let's go, I'll be in trouble after a while, and I'm going out too."
Ryan and Jerrod came out of the bar with two bottles of wine, and Abel said in a low voice, "Is there any gain?"
"A little bit, but not too much." Ryan and a few people whispered: "The rest will be up to Estelle and Daisy, Estelle, Daisy, listen to me, wait a while"
Ryan stopped talking suddenly, because at the corner of the street, Matthew Bud was walking towards them. The young knight had arrogance and prejudice on his face. He surrounded Ryan with a group of barren grave guards: " Mr. Gabe Newell?"
"Hello, what's your name?" The fat businessman seemed very confused about the situation he encountered. He scratched the back of his head with a smile on his face.
"I'm Matthew Bud, nice to meet you, a businessman from the empire." Matthew Bud also had a smirk on his face, and the two shook hands.
The fat businessman Gabe Newell wanted to stop after shaking his hand, but Matthew Bud firmly held his hand, so the businessman in Fort Marien looked surprised, first he looked surprised : "Ah? You are the Matthew Bard who lost to the champion Suria in the knight meeting? The first female champion of the knight meeting in two hundred years, the first runner-up defeated by a woman in two hundred years? How do you Will it appear here? Hehehe, I heard that Miss Suria is very beautiful, hehe!!!"
Gabe Newell, who was disguised by Ryan, suddenly let out a cry like a slaughtered pig. He covered his hands, as if he had been stabbed, and fell to the ground. The fat businessman was very heavy, and he almost killed Matthew during the fall. Bud is brought down.
The young knight pulled the fat businessman up, and Matthew Bard's face was bruised. This incident was the shame of Matthew Bard's life. Whenever he dreamed back at midnight, he recalled that he lost to When he was with Suria, he wanted to tear everything apart.
"Mr. Matthew Bud?! Please respect a businessman and your business partners!" Ryan took a lot of effort to calm down his breathing. He looked very angry: "Your behavior is too much! I want to protest !protest!"
Incompetent, weak lackey, this businessman's character fits the style of those Marienburg businessmen. When he saw the fat businessman, he was angry and scared, but he quickly signaled the guards not to do anything. He protested and smiled, Matthew Bud felt sick for a while.
Thinking of this, Matthew Bud frowned subconsciously, he still felt something was wrong.
"Half-elf? A steward with good sword skills? And your guards? Mr. Gabe? I'm sorry for my rudeness before, but can you explain? How did you find such a skilled guard? And Half-elf?"
"Many people are willing to fight. As long as the price is right, I will sell the goods here from Fort Marien and use the money to protect my safety. Is there something wrong? Mr. Matthew Budd?" The fat businessman said angrily. It's also hard to sound: "Maybe you don't understand this, but why can't I hire a half-elf? And a butler with strong sword skills?"
"If I can hire one or two, I still trust you, but your guards are all very skilled, which is really suspicious." Matthew Bud is still full of doubts, his handsome face is in front of Gerald's. He looked around, and then focused his attention on his hands: "Oh my god, my dear housekeeper, can you explain what is the callus on the middle of your index finger? This kind of callus only comes from seven or eight years ago. I started practicing knight swordsmanship at the age of 15, and it took more than fifteen years of accumulation to practice, I need an explanation, you knight of Brittany!"
Speaking of the latter, Matthew Bard almost shouted: "No one can hire knights from the Knight Kingdom, you must be an undercover agent who sneaked in to wreak havoc!"
Oops! Ryan's face changed slightly.
In this mission, everyone's identities were carefully considered by Ryan. Estelle and Daisy, as half-elves, have tasted enough human relationships since they were young, and they can skillfully deal with most of them. Not to mention the demon hunters Abel and Jule. For the demon hunters, it ranges from assassinating the vampire count, massacring the entire corrupted village to finding a puppy for the peasants. They can do money, and it is difficult for such a person to show their flaws.
Emilia and Suria Lane, who met Matthew Budd, were not brought out at all. Considering that Alfred and Teresa might not be good at this either, he had asked Veronica to take them back .
The only uncertainty is Jerrod! The Knight of the Kingdom is temporarily joining Ryan's plan. He needs a helper, but Gerald's identity is not so reliable and worthy of scrutiny.
"Tell me?" Matthew Bard's face was distorted and crazy, and he signaled the guards of the graveyard to surround Ryan and his party: "If you don't give me an explanation, I won't kill you, the premise is You all accept the embrace of blood and become real vampires!"
"" Ryan was about to say that he asked to see the vampire lord, but then he gave up the idea. At this time, if he raised this matter, it would definitely stimulate Matthew Bud's tight nerves.
This maniac can screw everything up! Ryan quietly slapped the demon hunter and the half-elf: ready to do it.
Where Matthew Bud didn't pay attention, Abel had already quietly reached out and touched the hand crossbow behind him.
At this moment, Gerald said: "Have you heard of Rickel?"
"Rickel? Isn't that a small island in Fort Marien?" Matthew Bard asked suspiciously.
"That's right, so do you understand?" Jerrod seemed to be ashamed and unwilling: "I need money, I need a lot of money, I don't want to talk about my life, stop here, okay? "
"Wait, you mean, you are a descendant of Louis de Galais who was exiled fifty years ago?" Matthew Bard remembered that Brittania did exile a team that failed in the war. A noble family of knights, this family was later hired by Marienburg, and then given Rikel Island to house them.
"This Mr. Malebazz, you know the reason why I am in this business. Is it interesting to keep rubbing salt on people's wounds?" Gerald said impatiently, his goatee was blown, gently Floating around, the words in his mouth had a strange tone, which was obviously not very proficient in Breton aristocratic language, his accent was very strange, like a curse word.
Matthew Bard was a little uncertain now: "You came back to Brittany because you wanted to go back to your hometown?"
"Will you believe me when I tell you? If you don't believe me, do you need to say something?" Gerald looked too lazy to explain his identity. He slapped Matthew Bard's hand away. "Just like just now, I said all day long that you are the runner-up of the Knights Conference. Would you be happy?"
"" Being exiled is a very shameful thing, and no one is willing to mention the process of these things too much, just like Matthew Bard is unwilling to mention the failure at the Knights Conference. Thinking of this, the young knight-errant Empathizing with him, there was still a lot of hostility between his brows, but his face eased slightly: "I'm sorry for my rudeness, what's your name?"
"My name is Ronald." Gerald opened his eyes and said nonsense: "Ronald de Calais."
"Mr. Ronald de Galais, are you willing to accept my offer? I need the assistance of an excellent person like you." Matthew Bard suddenly felt something was wrong.
The rhythm of the entire conversation seemed to be controlled by the person in front of him. Matthew Bard had been taught by the Lich King Akhan since he was a child, and he sensitively found himself being involved.
The young knight began to doubt the group again: "Perhaps you would like to have dinner with me?"
"You need a guarantor. I won't have lunch with others at random, especially if I was still suspected of being an undercover agent. You don't even have basic trust. Trading partners can be detained at will. Why should I have sex with you?" Have dinner with such a person?" Gerald refused unhappily, his dignity seemed offended: "It's his business if my employer wants to go, I won't go."
"Oh! I am willing to go!" The fat businessman raised his hand: "This way I can save money for dinner."
"Next time." Matthew Bard noticed the appearance of the vampire lord Hal. He obviously came here after hearing the news. Matthew Bard knew that he didn't actually have any real power. His power came entirely from his godfather, the Lich King. Akhan, and Akhan is actually not opposed to trade with humans, if it is a theory, he is doomed to be wrong.
After whispering with the vampire lord Hal for a while, Matthew Bud waved to the Grave Guard to get out of the way.
An hour and a half later, within the hotel.
"Scared me to death, almost ruined our plan because of a lunatic, Gerald? I didn't expect you to be very flexible." Ryan was a little scared when he thought about the previous things, and there was no doubt that Matthew Bard doubted their plan. Identity, I originally tried to make him forget about it with rhythm, but it turned out that Matthew Budd, a polite and respectable person, turned out to be such a crazy lunatic behind his back. plan of.
"It's immoral to tell a lie. I will confess to the lady, but before righteousness, before the task of protecting the country, these details are secondary." Gerald leaned on the cushion, his clothes were soaked, He also felt relieved: "In the face of righteousness, my personal honor and disgrace are not important."
"Well! I believe the lady will forgive you." Ryan nodded again and again.
At this time, Estelle and Daisy came back: "My baron, there is a new situation."
"How?" Ryan stood up.
"We tracked old Deckard and found that he was indeed still collecting hardwood and stone materials. Tonight, his transport team will leave the city to transport the materials to a certain place outside the city." Daisy said in a low voice.
"Okay! Ready to move!"
