"In this regard, I still prefer my life." Barrett scratched the back of his head slightly in embarrassment.

The Earl of Boreham smiled, "This can be seen from your past performances. But when it's time to do your best, you have an astonishing awareness. That's why this time I'm recalling you and the two outer members of the clan who joined the clan on your recommendation. It's just that this time the heavy snow ruined the original plan, and even if you want to restart, I'm afraid you have to wait for this blizzard to pass. ”

"Looks like we're going to have to wait a long time." As Barrett said this, he touched the bridge of his nose.

"Your attitude is not bad. If Lilinda was that little girl, she would definitely complain that she had run away in vain. At this point, the Earl of Boreham once again removed his serious mask, "But don't worry, you boy! This time the action is imperative, and the wind and snow may not last. As soon as the wind and snow stop, your mission will begin again. ”

Lilinda, as the Earl of Boreham refers to, is an outstanding young man of the Boreham family's generation. Although Barrett has not had any contact with her, in the process of communicating with other family members, he has also learned something about this girl who has never met before.

At the same time, the girl is not a martial artist with Barrett, but a bloodline rage that uncovers the hidden anger in her heart, resonates with the magical bloodline of the ancestors, and bursts out with devastating power. In a sense, this power system, known as the blood barbarian or the law barbarian, gives people the first impression of a roaring muscular man. It's really not compatible with the image that a girl should have.

So Lilinda, who was first discovered to have this potential, received a lot of ridicule from her peers - of course, those who had laughed at her eventually shut their mouths under her fists. I don't know if it's because of her natural personality or because of the influence of the career system, Lilinda's boldness doesn't seem to be worse than that of any man. Speaking is even more straightforward, sometimes without even going through the brain (in this respect, Barrett can be said to be two extremes).

However, for the Earl of Boreham, those excellent juniors will inevitably compare in their minds. So mentioning that lady in front of Barrett is also a normal performance.

"So can I ask a question ahead of time?" As soon as the words came out, Barrett noticed that something was wrong, and immediately added: "Of course, what I want to ask has nothing to do with the specific plan of the mission. Just wanted to ask if the rest of my companions could be involved in it, apart from me, Laru, and Rielly. If I can, I'll leave them behind, and if not, I'll arrange for them to go south. ”

"It's human nature that you care about things." Count Boreham touched his chin, "It's nothing without affecting the interests of the family. However, although it is still important to be emotional, sometimes you must learn to control your emotions. As for the mission this time? Your companions, except for those with ecclesiastical backgrounds, can sign a non-disclosure agreement to join them. And the remaining two, let them go back to the church first to confirm if they can sign a non-disclosure agreement, and see if they can carry out the mission! ”

"But wouldn't asking about signing a non-disclosure agreement in advance make the church behind them aware of the movement of our Boreham family?" Barrett asked, frowning.

Earl Boreham was naturally pleased that Barrett was able to focus on the interests of the family first. I saw him smile and wave his hand: "You can rest assured of this." As long as the strictly confidential part of the mission is not leaked, the rest will not have any impact at all. Besides, we have similar tasks in Boreham every month, and there are countless people who have signed non-disclosure agreements. It is difficult for those two churches to deduce from this the specific project you are involved in. ”

Forces like the Boreham family are like a sophisticated machine, executing all kinds of plans all the time. These plans range from overt to semi-public, and of course to covert operations. Either way, participants are often required to sign a confidentiality agreement. On the one hand, this is to ensure that some details are not leaked, and on the other hand, it is also to release smoke to mislead other potential enemies who are interested in targeting.

Barrett breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Since this is the case, let's discuss with them whether it is feasible after we go back!" In any case, it would be better to have a clergyman in the mission. If there is no thing, I can retire under the following. ”

"If you don't have any doubts, you can leave. Before the specific task starts, the family will arrange someone to notify you. Speaking of this, Count Boreham added, "The other two peripheral members of the family in your team can also try to use the family system during this time, and don't be so conservative before the war." Otherwise, if you die before you can enjoy the benefits, it will be worth the loss. As for you kid, it's better to prepare for the advanced quest early! Then you will understand that there is a chasm between hematite and black lead. ”

"Thank you very much for the reminder, Lord Earl, I will definitely remind them properly when I return." Barrett, who bowed again, said, "Then leave for now." ”

Barrett, who had left the town hall, hurried back to the hotel where he had stayed without saying a word, and then knocked on the door one by one and gathered his companions into his room. Looking at the guys in front of him who were still sleepy because of last night's party, he had to knock the table on his right: "Okay! Please sober up, otherwise you will have to wash your face with a cold towel. ”

"It's okay Barrett! Don't look at us like this, it's just an unfavorable judgment given by the system. In fact, we can still hear clearly what you say, as long as we are not allowed to go to the battlefield immediately, the impact is actually not big. After Clematis defended himself, he couldn't help but yawn.

Seeing the performance of his companions, Barrett smiled helplessly: "Okay! Since that's the case, I'll cut it short. For this family mission, all participants are required to sign a non-disclosure agreement. So Clematis and Noodles, you two, you need to go to your own church and ask if there are any restrictions in this regard. ”

"Oh! I'll go to the base in the afternoon. Noodle nodded obediently. And Kleimatis stretched: "Let's talk about whether the task is in a hurry first!" If I'm in a hurry, I'll go in the afternoon. Otherwise, I'd love to take a nap. ”

Neither Noodles nor Claymatis asked about the specifics of Barrett's mission. Because they believed Barrett and understood that if necessary, then he would definitely inform the details of the mission. And now that he hasn't said it, it's either Barrett doesn't know, or Barrett thinks it's not the time to make it known.

"There's no hurry! That task can't start until the school stops. Speaking of this, Barrett emphasized that "please watch your mouth when this news is heard!" Don't accidentally say that you are slipping out. ”

“ok！ I'll take notice. Claudia, who has always been a big mouth, understands that Barrett is referring to herself.

Hearing this, Barrett nodded: "By the way, according to the hint of Lord Earl, this time the task should be quite difficult." Don't save any more money, take out all your family resources to strengthen yourself! ”

Speaking of this, Barrett remembered the 'cozy home' that several ladies insisted on buying. Although that thing played a big role in this snow migration. But when I think of the lack of funds for the next operation, the meridians and veins on Barrett's head are jumping!

"Now that I'm in Boream, I'm going to see what spell I have to buy these days. For mages, knowledge and spells are the representatives of strength. Rielly quickly made up her mind.

And the cat boy looked at Barrett with a look of hope: "Before, the member of the cat man who was said before, can solve my current problem." ”

"I'll go find someone to inquire about this later. If you can solve the problem so easily, then you are really going far. Without saying a word, Barrett took the matter on himself.

Noodle pulled his finger at the bar: "My word, the best option is to buy a few targeted enemy-destroying arrows." But until I know the specific task, I can't make the right choice. ”

“OK！ Noodles you can put off a little bit. The team's treasury can also reimburse you for some money. Barrett nodded immediately. In the previous battles, the number of shots of the noodles was not much, but each time it worked. With targeted enemy arrows, his sniping can be said to be a very deadly threat to those enemies who are not up to the limit.

Immediately afterwards, the anvil also said: "I don't need it!" Just remember to give me the information in time when the time comes. ”

"If you can get a good shield, you can also make a good improvement. But that's not easy, so let's get a chance later! Barrett understands that the dwarves are now in debt and don't want to add new debts. So naturally I followed his words.

And Claudia patted her chest: "Fortunately, I made a small profit when I sold the golden lion statue before." Otherwise, this time it's really over. ”

When I spent money at the beginning, I didn't expect it to be today! Barrett spat on a few ladies, but he would never say it.

After a brief reminder, Barrett immediately left the hotel and went to the comptoir to inquire about the cat people who served in the family. However, judging from the information I heard, Lalu's problem is not optimistic. Although there are a lot of catmen in Boreham's territory, except for the catboy in his team, there is no second catman warrior monk among the registered personnel in the family.

Most of them are 'thief cats' who are known as masters of breaking doors with their extraordinary skills and stealth talents. The rest are mostly cat-man warlocks. And the 'Smart Guardian', a unique warrior monk inheritance of the cat people, could not find any suitable heirs in the territory. This was a real surprise to Barrett.

After putting down the information in his hand, Barrett asked the waiter in front of him, "Then can you arrange for a cat man professional who serves in the family to meet with me?" I have something I need to consult with them. ”

"We'll have to wait and see! I'll make an appointment for you right away, but most of the cat people in the family have their own tasks, so we won't have to wait until tomorrow at the earliest. The waiter thought for a moment, and then gave this reply.

For such a result, Barrett has long been mentally prepared: "Will the person meet here at noon tomorrow?" I don't think it bothered them too much during the lunch break. ”

"Prepare some of their favorite food, and if there are any further requests, please pay them well." The waiter kindly reminded.

Barrett smiled at the waiter's kindness and threw him a silver coin: "Then I'll leave the matter of contact to you." ”

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this for you." The waiter wiped the silver coin and put it in his pocket.

When Barrett returned the next day, at noon, a cat man with a rare purple spotted skin was lying on the table yawning weakly. Barrett, who pushed the door in, politely greeted: "Friend! What's wrong with you? I wonder if fresh dried fish can cheer you up? ”

After saying this, Barrett immediately shook the paper bag in his hand. The aroma of freshly grilled dried fish immediately spread from it, and the cat people, who had no energy, immediately pricked up their ears after smelling the smell. Immediately afterwards, Barrett directly put the bag of grilled dried fish directly on the table in front of the cat man: "This friend, what should I call you?" ”

"Ayala, you can call me Ayala." The cat man who had caught the dried fish said.

After Barretla sat down on the chair at the other end of the table, he looked at the cat man in front of him and asked embarrassedly, "Miss Ayala, I would like to ask you about the matter now." ”

"Let's talk about the problem. I'm specifically assessing intelligence fees. The catwoman who said this took out a dried fish and sniffed it, "For the sake of this dried fish, it belongs to the Boreham family with you and me." I can give you a small discount. ”

"That's right, Miss Ayala. I'm looking for a cat man's smart guard, but I don't know where to start. Barrett said with a little cry. (To be continued.) )
