Chapter 66: Entering the Lord's Mansion
Suddenly rushed in, this man was tall and mighty, although the armor on his body was a little worn, but it was very well maintained, and it could be seen that its owner was a real warrior with strength.
Owen was very surprised and said, "Captain Locke? Got enough money? β
"Yes, here's ninety-five gold coins, and ten healing potions, right?"
The man named Locke threw the money bag on the table with a painful look on his face.
Owen began to count the gold coins.
Locke looked curiously at Don next to him, he couldn't see anything from Don, he was dressed in an unfashionable and slightly rustic way, not wearing a weapon, not an apocalypse, not wearing a mage robe, not like a mage, could it be an alchemist? Ordinary people probably don't come to this kind of shop.
Being looked at by Locke, Don felt an unpleasant feeling in his heart, as if he was despised somewhere.
"Hello, my name is Locke, the leader of the Cross Rose Mercenary Regiment."
Locke thinks that Donn might be an alchemist apprentice, so he plans to get to know him.
Rose, it's Rose again, the Golden Rose family, the Cross Rose mercenary group, why can't the Plandalls get along with Rose? Isn't the Guns Rose Mercenary Regiment a good one? Isn't the crown of thorns more sensitive?
Donne's art of naming the Purlandals had reached despair.
"Donn."
"What is Mr. Don doing here? You don't look like an adventurer. β
"Buy some materials."
Locke's eyes lit up, and he was indeed an alchemist apprentice!
So he became even more enthusiastic: "Mr. Donn is learning alchemy, right?" We at Crucifix Rose are very happy to welcome alchemists to join, do you want to do so? Become an adventurer, dig ruins, find treasures, join us and earn a lot of money to become a nobleman just around the corner! β
"I'm sorry, I'm not interested."
Don shook his head, he was actually planning to leave.
"Yes, that's a shame, but if you change your mind, the doors of the Cross Rose Mercenary Regiment will be open to you at any time."
Locke wasn't discouraged, but it was better to surprise him by being able to recruit an alchemist so easily.
"Ordered, ninety-five gold coins are right."
Owen put away the money bag, took out the box of healing potions just now and handed it to Locke: "Put it away, Master Howard only gave me these ten this month...... But speaking of which, you were reluctant to use healing potions before, so why are you suddenly willing to buy it ruthlessly this time? β
"Because of this mission, of course."
Locke's eyebrows fluttered: "You should have heard about it too, right?" Casparmyburg has often had little girls disappear recently, and the nearby villagers are afraid to let their children go out, and even those nobles are a little scared, so they jointly funded and issued a mission to track down the culprit of this matter, and if anyone can solve this matter, they can get a full reward of two thousand gold coins! β
Don, who was just about to leave, paused and pricked up his ears.
The little girl is missing?
It's not that he's too conspiracy theorist, he almost subconsciously thought of the greedy look that Og had looked at Illya before.
But there's no movement on Elija's side yet.
"Two thousand gold coins!"
Owen was taken aback: "For such a big task, the Mercenary Guild hasn't appeared for a long time, right?" β
"Yes, and it's not just this one, there is another quest with amazing rewards, it's a high-level quest for a wanted necromancer, and the bounty is 5,000 gold coins, but it's a long way, it's in the south, and we'll go there after completing this quest."
Locke laughed and said, "With these healing potions, we're much more confident of completing our mission." β
Tang En turned around again and asked, "Captain Locke, can you tell us more about the disappearance of the little girl you just talked about?" β
"Mr. Donn is interested in this?"
Captain Locke smiled: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that in the past six months, Casparmyburg has disappeared hundreds of little girls in a row, and people are missing almost every day, at first they were just attacked by Warcraft as children, but after a long time, everyone didn't find any trace of Warcraft, but some abnormal clues showed that this matter was man-made." β
Don thought thoughtfully: "Kidnapping? β
"It's not kidnapping."
Locke shook his head: "If it was a kidnapping, someone should have been asked to pay a ransom by now, but in fact, until now, there has not been even a single message asking for ransom." β
"You just said that the missing little girl is not only a commoner, but also a descendant of nobles?"
Owen suddenly interjected and said, "Yes, even the beloved daughter of the rich Mr. Vincent is missing." β
Owen and Locke sighed, obviously not expecting that even those high-ranking nobles would encounter this kind of thing.
Locke added, "If Mr. Donn knows anyone who has little girls, it would be better to remind them to be careful." β
"I got it......"
Tang En was suddenly paused, and a strange smile appeared on his face: "Mr. Locke, Store Manager Owen, I still have something to do, let's go first." β
"Uh, all right, Mr. Donn."
Locke and Owen watched in confusion as Don walked away quickly, wondering why he suddenly stopped asking.
Of course, Don was not interested in continuing to ask, because there was finally movement on Elia's side.
The mana node he had released on Illya was moving rapidly, it was clearly not Illya's way of moving, and he could feel Illya's heart beating rapidly, as if she was a little nervous and scared.
"Don't worry, Ilia, I've been keeping an eye on you."
Don soothed Illya's emotions.
"Big brother, I'm so scared, it's so dark here, just now a few people jumped in through the window and put me in a bag, they are bad people!"
"I know, don't worry, it'll be fine."
Don had a cold smile on his face as he walked briskly following the sensing node down the street, if he had only been suspicious before, now he was almost sure.
The disappearance of the little girl is definitely related to Ogur, or rather, to Baron Duvière.
The footsteps stopped, and what appeared in front of Tang En was the Lord's Mansion that had just left not long ago.
And Ilia is already in the lord's mansion at the moment.
Very good......
Don laughed, he was worried that he wouldn't make a big fuss if he didn't make a big fuss, but now he sent the opportunity to the door himself.
"Why are you again!?"
Two guards came over impatiently: "Didn't you tell you to come back tomorrow!?" β
"Tomorrow?"
Tang En looked at them with a gentle face, and walked forward unhurriedly: "I'm afraid that the sword in my hand won't endure tomorrow." β
"Sword? Where do you have a sword in your hand? β
The guard looked at Don En as if he were looking at an idiot, and as soon as he finished speaking, a fine iron sword suddenly appeared in Don En's hand.
"How is this possible!?"
The two guards were startled and were about to warn Don En when he had already passed them.
"Find a reliable master in the next life."
Donn's voice reached the guard's ears, however...... Why is the sound so ethereal? And this heaven and earth, how is it upside down?
"Poof" and "poof", and the guard's body fell to the ground.
Until the moment darkness fell, they couldn't figure out when they had been stabbed.
"Murder !!"
"Someone is committing murder in the Lord's Palace! Guards! Where is the guard!? β
"The murderer has broken into the Lord's Mansion!"
After witnessing Don's murder, the outside of the Lord's Mansion instantly fell into chaos, and everyone was screaming desperately at the top of their voices, looking for traces of the guards.
Tang En kicked open the door of the Lord's Mansion with an indifferent face, and glanced at the maid who was cleaning inside: "Where is Du Weier?" β
Seeing Tang En holding a long sword, the maids were frightened, pointed upstairs and said tremblingly: "Three, third floor, ......"
"Thank you."
Don politely finished speaking, and walked straight upstairs.
"Who dares to make trouble in the Lord's Palace!?"
A group of people rumbled down the stairs, and when they saw Don En, they didn't say a word and rushed up!
"It's up to you...... Dare to stop me? β
The corners of Don's mouth curled slightly, and he waved the long sword at will, and the huge force of the arrogant and unreasonable easily knocked all the soldiers who blocked him out, and even those shining armor could not stop the ordinary fine iron long sword in his hand, which was easily torn apart.
The clanging chaos downstairs caught Duvier's attention, and he very unhappily gave up chasing the frightened maidens, and shouted, "Ogy! Og, where did you die! β
"Your Lord!"
Og came in: "I just came back. β
"What's going on out there? Someone making trouble? β
"My lord, that Don En came in with a sword, and now the guards in the palace are fighting him."
"Oh!?"
Du Weier frowned: "Didn't he come to surrender?" How dare you kill someone in my territory!? β
"Now it seems...... I'm afraid not. β
Og's face was still indifferent: "Please rest assured, my lord, I am guarding here and will not let him disturb the entertainment." β
"What you have in your bag is ......"
"My lord, the best I told you about earlier."
Du Weier's eyes lit up: "Let me take a look?" β
"Yes."
Og opened the bag, and Illya saw the light again, subconsciously covering her eyes.
"Superb! Sure enough, the best! β
Baron Duveyer was overjoyed: "This little girl is at least worth a hundred of them before!" β
Og laughed, "If you like it, Lord Baron." β
"You scoundrels, why did you kidnap me!?"
Illya's face was so frightened that she shrank into a ball, but Duvey didn't notice it, and the little girl's eyes were full of cunning.
"Hey......
Du Weier laughed: "Little girl, what is your name?" β
"I won't tell you! A dead pervert who doesn't even wear clothes! β
Elijah shook her head vigorously, her face filled with fear.
"Interesting ......"
Baron DuviΓ¨re smiled: "Ogy, lock her up." β
"I don't need to bother you."
A calm voice suddenly sounded at the door, and Og's face changed slightly, and he instantly appeared in front of Baron Duvière, with a vigilant face.
"Big brother!"
Elijah cheered and threw herself into Donne's arms: "How am I acting?" β
Don gave a thumbs up: "Awesome! ====PS: New year, new weather, I wish you all good health and prosperity! In addition, I bring tickets and red envelopes (reach out)
