503 Into the city
Sophia's smile was very polite, but her daughter Fence La, felt that there was always some wonderful feeling in her mother's eyes when she looked at Beta. On the surface, there seems to be nothing special, but her intuition always tells her that something seems to have happened between these two people.
I have to say that women's intuition is sometimes so unreasonable. In terms of logical judgment, women are indeed worse than men in general, but in terms of intuition, men can't catch up with their butts.
The two sides converged, and after Beta, she greeted Sophia's mother and daughter, and then introduced them to her little maid, Jessica.
Jessica stood next to Beta, she rarely got along with strangers directly face-to-face, and seemed a little scared, but she still tried hard to put on her little face, pretending to be calm, and she looked extremely cute.
Sophia covered her mouth, her eyes rolling, just like her usual bewitching style: "Tsk, Your Excellency Beta didn't bring Ms. Shirley out, this time you changed your taste?" ”
"The lady of the city lord laughed."
Beta is still the usual indifferent style. Kyle felt that the two of them behaved no differently than usual, but Fence Pull's gaze shifted between the two from time to time, looking a little suspicious.
Next, Beta explained the cause of the incident to the other three, and then assigned the task: "The meeting will be divided into three teams, Kyle and Fencera pretend to be a noble couple who have traveled from other places, I am a traveling mage, Jessica is my maid, the city lord's wife is an assassin, the ability to act alone is stronger than all of us, you are in your own group, everyone is to inquire about the news, and then meet at the most expensive hotel in the city at night, no problem." ”
Beta doesn't say the best, but the most expensive. Because it is best to modify it, there will be a lot of subjective emotions of one's own, and there will be differences of opinion between people, but the word most expensive is different, and it can be regarded as a title.
After the task was assigned, Sophia turned into a black shadow and quickly 'swam' forward against the ground, disappearing from everyone's sight in more than two seconds.
Fence La sighed: "Mother is getting stronger and stronger, and my father has been completely left behind by her. I'm afraid that they will not have a good relationship in the future. ”
Kyle was confused: "Does it matter?" ”
Fence Fence said helplessly: "Women are strong and men are weak...... A person whose father is so proud, do you think his mother will have any thoughts after he knows that he is getting stronger and stronger? For example, if I am stronger than you, what do you think? ”
"Wouldn't that be great, at least I wouldn't have to worry about your safety." Kyle looked puzzled.
"Kyle ......" is a with a full face, and his face is full of emotion.
The two even gave birth to a son, and Fencera has been paying attention to Kyle since he was a child, knowing his character, he naturally knows that this is his true words.
Beta was on the side, and Mo Ming was shown affection by his students, and he couldn't stay any longer, so he left with the little maid Jessica first.
At the gate of Bertram, the atmosphere was very strange, there was a team of city guards stationed there, and there were no guards to collect the city fee, but the people who entered the city were still restless, and they went to pay the head fee for entering the city.
What's even more strange is that the city guards obviously don't want to take it, but they don't stop those who enter the city from paying the head fee.
This strange atmosphere surprised Beta, he walked up with the little maid, and the guards watched from a distance the young man in magic equipment approached, and immediately became nervous, although he didn't look like a bosom friend, but his vigilance was very strong, and they all clenched their weapons in their hands.
"How do you calculate the capitation fee here?"
Beta stood in front of a group of city guards, his face cold, but not aggressive.
The city guards had a strange look, they had never collected a capitation fee from a professional, but now was a critical period, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense, for fear of disaster.
The air was quiet, and it was awkward.
In the end, the young man who looked like a small officer stood up and said, "Your Excellency, we only charge ordinary people for entering the city, and we can't charge a big man like you. ”
Beta nodded, his eloquent appearance relieved the others. But the next sentence lifted the nervous nerves of these people again.
"I met a group of cavalry outside just now, shouting at us and shouting at us, what's going on?"
Almost all of the city guards turned their heads, as if they were afraid of something. The petty officer was sweating even more.
Beta stared at him, smiling and not speaking.
The little officer is a professional, he can feel how big the other party is, he only feels that he seems to be targeted by something fierce, his whole body can't move, he even feels that the smile on the other party's face is the joy of the monster before eating.
"They, they...... I don't know. ”
The cold sweat on the forehead of the petty officer flowed even more.
Beta squinted at each other for a moment.
The petty officer felt that he was dead this time...... The other party was angry.
But Beta suddenly laughed: "Forget it. ”
Then he turned to leave, and the little maid followed behind, bouncing and walking.
Watching the man in the red cloak slowly walk into the city, the little officer's whole body stiffened like a stone, and it was only after the other party completely disappeared into the crowd on the street that he felt and acted back on his body.
Almost collapsed to the ground, he shouted angrily to the little soldier next to him, "Come and help me, Mom, I'm scared to death." ”
Beta walked down the street, and ordinary pedestrians avoided him from a distance when they saw his outfit. Just now, Beta used the talent 'aristocratic momentum', coupled with his master-level strength bonus, for those who have low strength and a timid and cowardly character, it is tantamount to seeing a giant dragon in front of him.
Although there are a lot of pedestrians on the streets, the atmosphere is a little wrong, less energetic and more depressing. People are in a hurry, and the vendors on the roadside are also looking weak.
Beta asks a panicked pedestrian where the most expensive hotel in the city is, and when he arrives at his destination, he is surprised to find that the hotel is closed and not open.
Beta knocked on the door, and soon someone opened the crack in the door and poked his head out of it, he originally looked very impatient, but when he saw Beta's outfit, he was startled, and immediately jumped out, and asked respectfully, "Your Excellency, is there anything you need help with?" ”
"I want to stay."
"This ......" The man was still a little embarrassed, but suddenly his eyes lit up, and he opened the door very happily: "Welcome, Your Excellency, we have the best service in Bertram, and the best wine. ”
