Chapter 97 Magic Seal

No matter how secretive a person is, he can often reveal many things from other aspects, such as his daily life, work and rest, diet, etc. Therefore, important people usually keep their privacy very carefully in order to prevent others from getting a thorough look at them.

Direct, simple, suspicious, and moody, this was the conclusion Fang Lin came to after looking at the bedroom where Duke Allen temporarily lived.

The living room is connected to the bedroom. Although the furnishings are luxurious, they are simple and the utensils are placed in a messy manner. It can be seen that Duke Allen usually does not allow others to touch his things. The solid big bed above the bedroom is very new, but next to Duke Allen's right hand, the bedrail of the big bed has been cracked, indicating that he often hits the bed board hard when he gets angry.

After listening to Fang Lin's request, Allen, who was lying lazily on the mahogany bed, suddenly sat up. The three women who were kissing and massaging him were caught off guard and were thrown away by the strong force for a moment. He hit his head against the wall and was bleeding, but no one dared to speak out. Allen's naked upper body was knotted with muscles, and the black chest hair was coiled like thatch, but his two eyes seemed to pierce into the depths of Fang Lin's heart!

"What do you want?"

Allen said word by word, and anyone could feel the feeling that the air in the room suddenly solidified. Like iron, like swamp, like clouds, like fog, even breathing feels suffocated. Fang Lin took an oak chair next to him and sat down, smiling calmly and saying:

"Of course I won't ask for what I'm asked to find."

Duke Allen said again with a gloomy face:

"What do you want?"

This time Duke Allen's tone was more serious, but Fang Lin said without any fear:

"I have already answered, sir. If there is nothing more to say, please allow me to excuse myself."

After saying that, he stood up, bowed politely and walked out. Fang Lin also took advantage of Duke Allen's weakness and spoke very modestly. But there was a sense of arrogance in his bones. If he chews the above sentence carefully, the translation would be:

"I've already said it once, and I don't want to say it a second time. If you don't want to pull me down, you can hire someone else."

At this time, there was a mixture of fish and dragons in Stromgarde, and no one could tell what the situation was. Especially when Scott, the nominal leader, dies, Arthur may also have some ideas. After Duke Allen experienced a betrayal, he must have been very paranoid. He just wished that the more people around him to protect him, the better, and the more mixed the factions, the better (the more mixed the factions, the less likely they would unite against him).

So even though reinforcements are coming. However, it was difficult for Duke Allen to find suitable people like Fang Lin and others to complete his mission. Strictly speaking at this time, in fact, the three heroes still have the advantage. If Duke Allen chooses to stick to it, he will be 100% sure. If he takes the initiative to recapture Stromgarde, he feels a little outnumbered and afraid of being ambushed. After all, he had already been ambushed by the Fool once and suffered from the lack of manpower around him, so he had no choice but to send people.

As for Duke Allen, he wanted the thing that Fang Lin and the others were looking for. If it falls into the hands of anyone under the influence of the evil Archduke Garibaldi, it is difficult to guarantee that they can withstand the huge temptation and test. Only mysterious "outsiders" like Fang Lin and others can minimize the risk when they get that thing, because even if Fang Lin and the others have the greedy idea of ​​taking it for themselves, the thing is completely useless!

Fang Lin had analyzed it carefully before. Among the people in high positions in Stromgarde, all of them are leaders of a certain military unit. For example, John who originally guarded the Dylan Fortress was the leader of the two-handed giant sword heavy swordsman unit, and Marcel was the heavy shield warrior. The leader of the Hammermen. Riley is the leader of all magicians. Even the leader of the rebels, the disciplinary knight Scott, is also the leader of the single-axe, tower, shield and flat-helmet knights.

It can be inferred from this that Duke Allen must also be a leader of a certain military branch. Fang Lin further deduced that Duke Allen was either the leader of the masked slaves, or the leader of a baarian with perfect long-range attack/defense/attack power/movement speed. And Fang Lin is more inclined to the guess of the first masked slave leader. The reason is very simple, although the masked slave is the weakest. But they are also the largest in number. It can be said that they form the cornerstone of the entire Evil Grand Duke. Without the assistance of a large number of masked slaves, the Evil Grand Duke Garibaldi would not be able to effectively rule his own principality!

Then it is obvious that Duke Allen wants Fang Lin and the others to go to Stromgarde to obtain important things. It's probably some kind of token that authenticates his identity as a leader. Just like before Marcel was recognized as the leader of the Heavy Shield Hammers, he snatched away the weapons of the previous Fire Red Heavy Shield Hammers Oudi. Obviously, this is a token of the leader's identity. It's quite important. Therefore, Duke Allen, who has become paranoid, is not at ease no matter who he sends around him. Only those like Fang Lin and others who have not fully joined their own forces are not in danger.

Fang Lin calmly opened the door and went out. After walking forward for nearly a hundred meters along the original path. Then I heard footsteps coming from behind, and a masked slave chased me and said in panic:

"Your Majesty, please go back."

Fang Lin smiled. Shi Shiran followed the masked slave back. At this time, Duke Allen had already pushed back Marcel and the red ninja. He wore a pair of pajamas and sat on the chair next to him. It looked like a lion yawning lazily on a high boulder. Only then did Fang Lin realize that this astonishingly powerful ruler of Stromgarde was actually not young yet. He was already somewhat bald, his hairline was very high, and his forehead was as smooth as a smooth giant egg.

Although there are overlapping wrinkles on his face, he gives the impression that he is radiant and vigorous as a young man. Seeing this majestic middle-aged man with a burly figure, one can't help but give people the illusion that failure is approaching.

Duke Allen pushed the parchment paper on the table forward, and the solid and thick oak table slid towards Fang Lin, making a "squeaking" sound, as if it was about to fall apart.

"I can agree to your conditions, but this is a piece of parchment with a magic contract. Only after you write your name on it in blood can the conditions of our contract take effect."

Fang Lin squinted his eyes and pressed his fingers on the parchment. Sure enough, he felt the fluctuations of spiritual power on it, as if one vortex after another was condensed inside. Immediately afterwards, there was a prompt from Nightmare Mark:

"Duke Allen has sent you a hidden mission: a token lost in Stromgarde."

"The mission goal is to retrieve the token left by Duke Allen in Stromgarde. Mission reward: Obtain a magic seal that can be used once. If you put the seal on an object in this world, you can contact the original soul on it. Brand, take ownership of the item."

"Do you want to take on this mission? Y/N."

With the nightmare mark as a notarization, Fang Lin was naturally relieved. After he smiled, he bit his finger and put his own fingerprint on it and said:

"We are not familiar with Stromgarde. There is such a secret room in the Dilan Fortress alone, let alone the lair you have been running for decades? You have to tell me where your keepsake is hidden."

Duke Allen waved his hand and said impatiently:

"You go find Riley and he'll give you a map."

This lion-like middle-aged man took a sip of strong wine when Fang Lin and the others were about to go out, and suddenly said irritably:

"Listen, although I don't know why I hate you guys who appear mysteriously, I still hope that you guys can come back alive with what I want!"

Fang Lin smiled, waved, and went out, as free and easy as a gust of wind.

………………

The group of people packed up hastily after going out. After obtaining a detailed magic map from Riley, they rushed to Stromgarde. The reason why they left in such a hurry was that according to Fang Lin's calculation, after the death of Punishment Knight Scott, the rebels would immediately be divided into three groups. One group was hoping to surrender to Duke Allen again, and the other group was Those who plan to fight to the end, and the other group who plan to defect to Arthur.

However, Arthur was originally as panic-stricken as a bereaved dog, and besides the two self-proclaimed knights, the rest of Arthur's group were farmers living at the lowest level. Even though the word "volunteer army" was added to the end, in the end it was still farmer. Therefore, the forces in Stromgarde are at their most chaotic at this time, like a muddy water that has been muddied. It is just a good time to fish in troubled waters, but if you wait until the next day to rush there, then the muddy water will have cleared up and the dust has settled. It becomes exponentially more difficult for them to get in and get things.
