Chapter 137: Happy Cooperation
Dark, damp underground cells. ,
The two men, one thin and one fat, were stripped naked, bound with iron chains, and fastened to a wooden disc that looked like a waterwheel. A grim-faced executioner stood nearby, wielding a winch. As the disc turned and stopped, the two prisoners were constantly sunk into the deep pool, and when they came out, they coughed wildly, and their mouths and noses oozed muddy sewage.
"Haha......"
The emaciated man shook his wet hair and let out a shrill sneer in the water prison, "The followers of the Dark King will never succumb to torture!" ”
"I'm afraid, but I'm also hateful, and darkness nourishes my negative emotions...... I'm enjoying it, what a wonderful feeling...... Arabe, Susar, these places...... No, the whole of Cormier will soon taste the same fears as I do......"
A grim and vicious voice echoed through the dungeon. An executioner with a long whip in his hand frowned and walked over, flicking his arm and leaving a bloody trail on the thin man.
In the cell above, Charles, Udic, and Meloti all looked calm.
Yuffie had already gone to deal with the aftermath of the battle with quicksand and dreams on his fingertips, and Harris took off his heavy armor, changed into a cloth robe, and sat at a table with a gloomy expression.
Harris naturally felt insulted, especially when he stripped Sheriff Gotha and the disguiser of their clothes, finding the marks of the evil organization on them.
It was a gold platter with a black scepter emitting green rays on it.
The overall color of the mark is black-gray, with the scepter and rays symbolizing the worship of the dark king Bane.
The people at the bottom may lack awareness of this tattoo, but Harris is a warrior from a family of generals. Hero-level professionals. Although not as knowledgeable as a mage. But there is still some religious knowledge, especially the understanding of the resurrection Church.
Since Bane was reborn in the body of the heir a few years ago, the divided Resurrection Church has been reunited under the integration of Bane's voters, a legendary ** division.
The Resurrection Shrine is headquartered in the Moonsea region, where the Resurrection Shrine was initially only interested in trade, and then gradually involved in the evil realms of assassination, surveillance, and arson, and now in the Moonsea region, the Resurrection Shrine has the same power as a small country. And it is constantly infiltrating into Comanso, Sambia and Cormier, hoping that the sphere of influence can go all the way from the Moon Sea to the west, across the east, center and west, and reach Jianwan.
It is not only the countries of Sambia that are suffering from the activities of the Resurrection Church, but also Cormier. Even a few months ago, Harris personally led the garrison to destroy an underground temple in Bane, but failed to catch the evil priest who presided over the Midnight Prayer.
"Bang!"
The more Harris thought about it, the more he felt an indelible shame, slammed his fist on the table, and roared, "That wanderer is a fanatic. It's useless to keep it, let me skin him alive-"
And then. Give me Gotha, and in just one night, I'll be able to get him to tell me everything that's in his stomach. ”
The Tigers' cruelty to captives can be said to stop the cry of children, this family has a set of methods of torturing captives and prisoners, Gotha is not too tragic at the hands of Harris.
In fact, Charles wanted to invite Meloti to call a mage who specializes in confusing and controlling spells, and gently asked Gotha to speak, but since Harris had spoken, he could only mourn for Gotha for half a second.
Gotha is not a fanatic, but is only tempted by wealth and magic items to work for the Resurrection Order, and his willpower is definitely not tenacious.
"Your Excellency, I'll leave it to you." Charles nodded.
This is an opportunity to wash away the stigma.
Harris looked grateful, stood up from behind the table, and bowed his head in gratitude to Charles.
The forty-year-old Overseer didn't dare look at Meloti.
In fact, he was about the same age as Meloti, a contemporary of the same era, and Harris should have pursued Meloti when he was younger.
Not long ago, this warrior learned the cause and effect of the battle of Manor from Meloti, and even saw the 'Scepter of Victory Radiance' in Charles's hand. The Tigers have a reputation for brutality and torture, but they also have a natural obedience to discipline, which is why successive Arabe lords have been willing to trust this family.
The character of Gotha is related to the development of the plot line at the end of the battle.
Charles already has a rough idea of the "Epilogue" mission, which ends with the destruction of the Temple of Arabe in the Resurrection Shrine, which can be regarded as the best plot route, and I believe that after completing the mission, the system and the female lord's evaluation of him will not be low.
So the importance of Gotha is undeniable. All the information in his stomach had to be spit out.
Leave the garrison prison.
The night is dark.
"Good job tonight, the fist of vengeance has been smashed, and the news is expected to spread among the Arabe region early tomorrow morning." Meloti gave a rare compliment, and immediately unfolded the magic effect attached to the brown-red boots, and two pairs of small white wings supported the sword mage to lift off into the air.
"Would you like to come with me to the new station of the Lionhearts? Not far away, in a residential area in the middle of the floor. ”
Uditz smiled and said, "Chrissy has been chanting your name for half a month, but whenever you meet a priest, she will always follow someone else. ”
"And Calder and Ian, both of whom are now working for the Lord's House. The dimensional bag you gave me, I have returned it to Lord Mebius......"
"There's a chance." Thinking of the cute bear girl, Charles also smiled, this is a potential stock, if you train well, maybe there will be an extra fierce female general in the territory.
"Then I'll go back first, Chrissy is waiting for me."
Udic didn't force it, waved his hand and walked into the night.
Charles returns to the Old Town Manor alone.
Without the bustle of two or three hours ago, the 2,000-strong legion should have dispersed, and now there are only a few henchmen left in the manor, carrying the treasures of the 'Fist of Vengeance' treasury.
The possessions were miscellaneous, and there were sets of refined armor that had already been cast. There are also weapons such as swords. This piece of equipment between the whiteboard and the green color doesn't appeal much to the player. However, there will still be many indigenous organizations interested in this batch of equipment.
In addition to normal equipment. Boxes and boxes of gold coins are the most eye-catching catch. The 'Fist of Vengeance' is still a new force, and it has only been entrenched in the Old City for less than half a year, otherwise the Charr and the 'Twilight Blade' will be able to reap an even more astonishing fortune after this battle.
In front of the treasure house.
Blood Eagle personally took the documents and quill pens, and every time a box of items out of the warehouse was loaded into the carriage, he would make a record on the documents, and his attitude was very serious.
Charles looked and nodded secretly.
The quasi-thief king who was able to compete with Takekawa at the beginning was naturally not far behind. Takekawa's style is more free and flexible, and he mostly relied on talent to win the throne of the king of thieves, but on the contrary. The Blood Eagle is a representative of diligence and hard work, coming from the bottom step by step in the time of Nodashir.
However, according to the current situation, after being recruited by the female president Yufe, Blood Eagle completely took on the role of the guild manager, and his talent is quite outstanding, but he doesn't know if his skills and consciousness have fallen.
"You're here."
Yuffie stood with her arms folded to the side, with Blood Eagle in charge of the secretary and Bussman in charge of the escort, she was much more relaxed, and smiled and greeted Charles when she saw him coming.
"The total value of this harvest has been calculated. A total of 196,791 gold coins, and I ignored the other silver and copper coins for a fraction......"
The female warrior monk smiled movingly. The index finger lightly tapped the lip flap and said, "Two percent of them, do you want to take them now?" ”
"Nearly 200,000 gold coins?"
Even Charles couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, revealing a look of surprise.
It's really a wave of fat and support, no wonder the female president is so looking forward to the bright and energetic, with this new money in the account, the 'Twilight Blade' can even buy a resident house in Susaldo, firmly stabilizing her position as the first guild of Cormier.
He didn't expect that the Fist of Vengeance had accumulated such an astonishing wealth in just a few months, and if he had known in advance, it was estimated that Charles would have changed his mind when he was in the ** Division Tower.
But there are no ifs.
The Twilight Blade is his natural ally, and the Crown of Nodashir, which has not yet been formed, will certainly not work to develop the territory. The sooner an ally is stronger, the better it will be for future development.
200,000 gold coins, 20%, 20%, the harvest is 40,000 gold coins, which is a thirst quenched for Charles who has an empty money bag.
"Mine this, help me deposit it in the Bank of Virginia." Charles said after a moment's thought.
The Bank of Virginia is naturally a large bank opened by the Virginia family, and it can be found in almost all cities with a scale of more than 10,000 people in the central, western and eastern regions of the mainland, and it is very convenient to access property with a card.
He decided to use the funds again when he returned to Susar to find a master enchanter to serve him and use up the 'Earth Essence' and 'Black Tourmaline' that had accumulated for a long time.
After the last team of players emptied the treasure trove of the 'Fist of Vengeance', Charles, Yufie and Blood Eagle got into a carriage and set off for the Twilight House. Bussman rode a warhorse and armed with a hammer spear, and was escorted outside with a group of warrior players.
Inside the carriage.
Regardless of the bumpy road conditions, the Blood Eagle was still very serious, burying his head in the list file.
"Well, I didn't cheat you, did I?" Charles asked playfully.
"......" Blood Eagle didn't speak, but carefully read the list before finally looking up at the priest, his trademark grim expression showing a hint of relief.
After holding it for a long time, Blood Eagle seemed to have a lot to say, but when it came to his mouth, it became a simple four-word word:
"It's a pleasure to work with."
"Happy working together!"
Charles smiled and copied it in a lighter voice, then stretched out his right hand, spread it out, and winked at the Blood Eagle: "Shouldn't we high-five and celebrate the success of our first collaboration?" ”
Syllable.
Without hesitation or thought, Blood Eagle high-fived the priest.
Yuffie sat next to him and smiled.
Outside, Bussmann rode a light war horse, walking almost against the carriage, and when he caught a glimpse of this scene through the open window of the carriage, his face suddenly darkened. (To be continued......)
