Chapter 37: Advance of the Formal Rogue Quest
Standing in front of Jiang Zheng was Roan De, a thief trainer.
"Mr. Roand, what's the matter?" Jiang Zheng frowned, could it be that Luo Ander came for the Thief's Blade?
"Nicholas, Mistress Miles is looking for you." Luo Ande's eyes swept and he saw the thief's blade in Jiang Zao's hand, and he couldn't leave it anymore.
Anything about Onrius has a fatal attraction to him, let alone the Thief's Blade she has used for years?
Soon, they returned to the station.
"Nicholas, I'm waiting for you outside, I've brought a lot of money, you know." Roander whispered, his eyes glowing with gold.
Jiang Zai nodded speechlessly, and then walked into the hall.
As soon as he entered the door, Jiang Zai saw Miles.
This high-ranking assassin, who had long passed his prime, looked restless, and was much older than the previous few days, as if he was pressed against a mountain.
These days, the pressure of the entire Assassin Regiment is on him, and hundreds of people need him to preside over the transfer, and they are overwhelmed.
"Nicholas, you're here?" When Miles saw Jiang Zheng coming, a smile finally appeared on his face, and he nodded: "I already know about you, it's very good, it's amazing." Master Onejus just told me that the widowmaker and the broken intestine were placed with me first, for your own good, I hope you can understand. ”
Jiang Zai hurriedly nodded and said, "Understand, understand, long live!" Actually, I'm not even a full-fledged thief, only you are worthy of those two daggers. Why don't I tell Master Onejuus about those two daggers for you? ”
Miles smiled and shook his head, "You, you don't need to test me, no matter how good the dagger is, I don't want it." For a thief, there is no such thing as the best weapon, only the most suitable one. My pair of daggers have been with me for ten years and don't want to change them. And I'm old, and I'm not worthy of such a good weapon. ”
Jiang Zai was slightly stunned, and then shook his head slightly.
Perhaps, for those who are used to it, a weapon is used to old age and does not want to change, but it also depends on the situation. A good weapon is very useful for improving strength.
Miles is indeed old, and he has long passed his prime. But to say that you don't want widowmakers and gut-breaking is impossible.
He just didn't want to, he didn't want to snatch what belonged to Jiang Zheng.
This made Jiang Zai very moved.
"You've learned to stealth, and as is customary, now you're going to complete a mission before you can become a full member of the Assassin Order." Miles looked at Jiang Zheng and said, "After completing the task, I will give you the widow maker and the broken intestine, don't let me down." ”
"Task? What task? Mistress Miles, I'm still an apprentice thief, okay? You've just learned to stealth, right? You're going to send me on a mission? It's not appropriate, right? Jiang Zai hurriedly waved his hand and refused.
What an astral joke!
Although it is international practice that thieves also have to go on missions, but is it a thief apprentice who has received full training? At least a three-month probationary period, right? You didn't teach in place in all aspects, so let me go on a mission? Aren't you afraid of messing you up?
Don't lie to me, okay? I've inquired about it, and only thieves who have learned all the low-level skills and have received at least one month of training can accept the official thief mission, which is an international practice!
Well, in fact, Jiang Zai's real idea is, is it good to stay in Lordan Renduo?
It's okay to practice skills, learn martial arts, copy a few books to make money, and then stay in the princess's mansion to level up, and wait until a few months later, your strength has improved, and you feel that the world can go, and then leave Lordaeron, a city destined to fall, and travel around the world!
Out of the task? How dangerous!
Don't go, don't go!
"Nicholas, I can't help you."
Miles sighed, "There's no way around it. You're so smart, you should have guessed that there was already something wrong in the Assassin group, and there were people from other forces, right? For example, Baron Sorosson's people. ”
Jiang Zai's face was straight, and he nodded silently.
The two assassinations a few days ago were still thorns in his heart. The pressure from Baron Thorosen and the Cursed Sect made him almost breathless. Although he always felt that as long as he didn't shake off Baron Thorosen's identity, the cursed sect wouldn't pay attention to his little minion, and Baron Thorosen wouldn't fight him to the death, it wasn't worth it.
He thinks it's a tacit understanding between him and Baron Thorosen: everyone is smart, and smart people don't need to be dead.
But no matter what, he has been targeted by the Cursed Sect, and he will never be at peace.
"Many of the paladins of the Tyrisfa Monastery have been sent to the Valley of the Hearth to defend against the undead scourge there, and the guards are insufficient, so I ask His Majesty the King to send mages to help. Several groups of mages had already gone to the monastery in batches, and today it was Master Nolan's turn. ”
Miles sighed, "Master Nolan is an old mid-level mage with good strength. This time he will bring three of his students with him, and His Majesty will also send a mixed team to escort him. According to the regulations, the Assassin Corps also had to send one person. Now that the Assassins are scattered, I can only send you once. Don't worry, it's just a formality, it's safe. ”
Tirisfa Monastery!
The place that came to be known as the "Scarlet Abbey" is located in the northeastern part of the Tirisfal Glades, adjacent to the Valley of the Hearth, a long way from Lordaeron, at least a few days away.
Currently, the undead are gathered in the Eastern Plaguelands and the Western Plaguelands. Due to the blockage of the Valley of the Hearth, Icewind Hill, and the Paladins of the Tirisfa Monastery, it has not yet spread to the Tirisfal Glade, and it is safe.
Jiang Zai didn't care about this.
He asked, puzzled, "Lord Miles, if I'm not mistaken, Baron Thorosen's son, Dudley Dursley, is Master Nolan's apprentice?" You're not letting me go, I'm afraid it's because there's no one in the Assassin Corps, right? ”
Jiang Zai once asked the little maid to inquire about Baron Sorosson and the entire Dursley family, and learned this information.
Since it comes to Baron Thorosen, it's not that simple.
"You're smart, you're good." Miles nodded, "We have received news that the undead plague is related to a mysterious force called the 'Cursed Sect'. Two days ago, I asked Roander to personally investigate Melva, who assassinated you, and found out that she had ties to the Cursed Sect and Baron Thorosen. In other words, Baron Thorosen is likely to be related to the Cursed Sect. ”
Jiang Zai was shocked!
The Royal Assassin Corps of Lordaeron is not simple, it is worthy of His Majesty's monitoring agency and intelligence organization, and it has directly touched Baron Thorosen!
He knew very well that Baron Thorosen was a member of the Cursed Sect, and that he was the one who personally threw the plague of natural disasters into the waters of the river in Andorhar!
