Chapter 69: Greenland's 'Dark Emperor'

The black marketeer couldn't help frowning when he saw the nezumi coming in front of him, "Rickan, why haven't you left yet?"

The nezumi adventurer shook his head, "I need money, so I won't leave Greenland for a while, but I didn't expect His Majesty the King to convene a parliament, is this the danger you are talking about?"

Du Wei shook his head and sighed, "Forget it, don't talk about this, do you have something to do with me?"

"Is there a crossbow left?" asked Rickan.

Du Wei thought about it for a while, and didn't ask the doubts in his heart, because Rickan couldn't use a strong crossbow, and he must have bought it for someone, but the friendship between them was not very deep, or the friendship was not deep enough for him to ask such a question.

As a black marketeer, it's best not to explore so much, and the most important thing to do is not to be curious.

"Two more, do you need anything else?"

Rykan shook his head, "I only need a strong crossbow, I bought it for a newcomer, his identity is special, it's not easy to bring it out." ”

"Special identity?" Du Wei gasped, "You just brought a team of young masters and young ladies to clean the sewers before, there won't really be any noble children who become adventurers, right?"

Rykan said with a sad face: "Because of him, my pay is less than half, but I also received another task because of this." ”

Du Wei opened his mouth, as he had guessed what kind of task it was.

"That's not right!"

Du Wei frowned, realizing that things were not simple.

After thinking for a while, Du Wei suddenly took a deep breath, his eyes quickly glanced around, and whispered, "Follow me." ”

Rickan had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't ask, because the black market is like this, and generally no black marketeer will put good goods out in the open, usually they have several 'warehouses', and their 'good goods' are placed there.

Maybe it's an abandoned hut, maybe it's the roots of a tree, and only they know where the goods are hidden.

Some people will store it centrally, others will store it separately, but most of them will only use it once and then discard it.

Generally speaking, black market merchants and traders do not trade directly on the black market, and they talk in a deliberately low voice, so that few people except lip speakers know what they are talking about.

The 'good goods' sold by black market merchants are actually nothing, just some contraband, like crossbows and steel swords, which are contraband.

It is also illegal to buy and sell alchemical bombs and muskets without permission, which is enshrined in law in most countries.

But it is very strange that it is illegal to buy and sell alchemical bombs and muskets without permission, but it is not illegal to make alchemical bombs and muskets for your own use, only to buy and sell them privately.

"Why can't he get a crossbow himself, don't you know this?" Rickan followed behind Du Wei and listened to him whisper, "Now GreenWave has entered a tense period, like me, the purchase channel of military supplies has been temporarily closed, although I am not buying from Greenland. I'm afraid that a noble kid like him is already on a watch list, and it will be too difficult to leave Greenland. ”

"You suspect he's using me?" Rickan and Dewey were chatting as if they were in a normal conversation, and Dewey put away his black cloak, otherwise it would be too conspicuous, even in the slums, there wouldn't be so many suspicious-looking people.

Sometimes ordinary is the best disguise.

They didn't speak loudly, though, and fit their attire - two wanderers.

The two of them also walk faster than normal people, so that if someone follows them, they can easily spot the stalker.

The black marketeers have always been so cautious that they are not even more reckless than Rickan when he was exploring the dungeons.

"I think it's his father who is taking advantage of you. Du Wei looked around, "Ordinary people, even the children of nobles like him, have difficulty getting into the inside story of this matter, so I don't think he took advantage of you." ”

Rickan's eyes widened suddenly, and he asked eagerly, "What the hell do you know?"

“...... It's here!"

Du Wei was silent for a moment, then took Rykan to a house, unlocked the door with the key, and walked inside.

Rickan looked left and right and saw that it was still in the slums.

Locks in the slum houses? Do you think you're not poor enough? Unruly thieves steal everything, even clothes.

He followed Du Wei into the house and found that there was nothing in the room except a wooden bed.

This was his first impression of this house, and even the ground was not very level.

"Help me move the bed out of the way. ”

With doubts in his heart, Rickan helped Du Wei move the wooden bed away, and then Du Wei walked to the place where it should have been the foot of the bed and pressed it hard.

Click!

Rickan was silent and put his right hand on his belt, which was not only a short knife, but also two darts, and his index and middle fingers gently clamped the tail of the dart, giving him a little sense of security, and then he continued to watch Dewey take out the wooden box that had bounced out of the ground.

Du Wei patted the dust on the box, and after he opened the box, Rickan's pupils suddenly shrank.

"What do you want to do?" Rykan asked in a deep voice, his right hand muscles already tense, ready to throw a dart in the next second.

Du Wei's current appearance is really too strange, even if their relationship is good, Du Wei will not put all his goods in front of him, let alone take him to his 'warehouse'.

With just one look, Rickan saw that the small wooden box contained many things, including a crossbow and a few alchemy bombs, and the others were packed in bags, and he couldn't recognize what it was.

But it didn't matter, the important thing was that Du Wei took him to his 'warehouse' and put his own goods in front of him, which made Rickan vigilant.

Du Wei looked at the goods in the box, breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the crossbow, and threw it to the vigilant Rickan, "I'm leaving Greenland, and I need your help." This is a deposit, and the balance will be paid later. ”

Rickan looked at him suspiciously, then checked the crossbow in his hand, and asked 'inadvertently', "What's wrong?"

“...... Who do you think is Greenland's underground ruler?

Rickan looked up in surprise, he didn't know why Dewey had suddenly said this.

Du Wei shook his head and said to himself: "No, Boss Mott is just a puppet who has been pushed out, in fact, the ruler of Greenland has only one person from beginning to end...... Remember the news I told you earlier? That's what the boss told me to spread the word. ”

With that, he closed the wooden box, picked it up, put on his black cloak, walked over to Rykan and patted him on the shoulder, "Let's go, it's not safe here, I need to leave Greenland, how many days do you need to prepare?"

Rickan held a strong crossbow in his arms, and his face was a little tangled.

After a moment of silence, he took out two sheets of linen from his belt bag and wrapped the crossbow in two layers, "It will take four days! You will wait for me in four days in the roadside grove leading to Burrell, and I will wait for you there for two hours." Remember, from eight to ten in the morning!"

Du Wei nodded and pulled up the hat of his cloak, "You know, there is a tunnel under the kitchen." See you in four days, then!"

"See you in four days. ”

Du Wei walked out of the door, but this time he didn't lock it.

After Du Wei walked out of the house, Rickan followed Du Wei's words and found the tunnel in the kitchen.

As soon as he cleared the dirt covering the tunnel, and before he could open the wooden door, a strange smell reached Rickan's nose.

"Wow!"

Surprised, Rickan pulled open the wooden door of the tunnel, then jumped down and closed the door again.

The tunnel leads to the sewers, which used to be the territory of their 'rats', and Du Wei is dressed very conspicuously, and carries a wooden box, which has led everyone who is watching, and then even if someone comes to search this place and finds the tunnel, there is nothing to be done.

After all, there weren't many people like them who were as familiar with the Greenlands sewers as they were!
