Chapter 11: It's none of my business anyway!

"Jules. Emerson? It's a familiar name......"

Xu Nan worked hard to search the memory bank.

However, no matter how he was, he could not recall the true origin of the name; Sometimes that's how it is, when you remember something you remember and suddenly forget it.

"Maybe it's not a very important person."

He subconsciously thought.

Of course, it may also be that the surname and first name of this name are quite popular names in the Western world on the earth, and it is also possible that Xu Nan has a vague impression.

All in all, without much information, it would be absolutely impossible for Xu Nan to go to a mage tower to take an adventure!

"I've thought about it."

In Gray's expectant gaze, Xu Nan smiled slightly:

"I wish you a safe journey."

Gray snorted, spit out the apple core, and walked away.

……

The next day, Gray made an excuse to contact the people in the quicksands, and quietly left Wildfire City, but actually ran alone in the direction of the Living Corpse Swamp.

Xu Nan is not worried about this guy, as a high-level mercenary, he knows how to save his life better than anyone else.

As for whether you can enter the Mage Tower smoothly and get the Wild Exploration Order...... Then we don't know.

Today, Barnes once again solemnly invited him to attend an intra-clan banquet at the Sebalon family's manor outside the city, and Xu Nan did not refuse.

For one, despite the fact that the wilderness has caused problems in this link, Barnes is unlikely to openly harm the nobles of the quicksands unless he recognizes his parallel identity. Regarding this point, Xu Nan thought about it carefully, most of the people who killed Miss Su were sworn enemies with the Sebalon family, and they should not tell such important news.

Second, Xu Nan also wanted to know more about the Sebaron family, especially after hearing about the legends about Theron.

Although it wasn't a plantation party, there were a lot of members of the Sebaron family at the banquet, so maybe you could get some useful information from the mouths of some of them?

As for whether the Sebarons would be tight-lipped, Xu Nan smiled.

Do you really think that such a high charm is added for nothing? Even if you can't cast illusions, a simple [Dementia Touch] plus [Gravitational Force] can make a profession with a high immunity ability sink under Xu Nan's crotch!

Courtesans are the natural profession of warlocks!

It's a pity that most warlocks don't take advantage of this, they tend to be arrogant and neurotic, not like Xu Nan who is willing to fall into ...... Ahh

All in all, in the afternoon, Xu Nan ate the lunch made by the old maid and got into the carriage of the Banes family.

It was a luxuriously decorated carriage, pulled by two northland ponies, not fast, but it was very stable, and the structure between the rollers and bearings was a little complicated, Xu Nan glanced at it and didn't see anything famous, but the shock performance was surprisingly good.

It's even better than the carriage of the four princesses that Xu Nan did before.

"The people of the Sebaron family know how to enjoy it."

"There's also special suspension technology...... Although Wildfire City is a border town, it looks like a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger. ”

Xu Nan sat in the carriage and closed his eyes.

The waiter in charge of the reception had a respectful expression, and he did not look like a native Iceborne, presumably a slave purchased from the south by the Sebaron family.

"What's your name?" Xu Nan suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the waiter.

"The little one's name is Martin, and he works with the big butler of the South Manor."

The waiter reacted quickly, bowed his head and said respectfully: "Su Xiao, Mr. Su have any doubts, you can ask questions, if I know, I will definitely answer." ”

Xu Nan pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "Why don't you call me the city lord?" ”

The waiter was stunned for a moment, and buried his head lower:

Mr. Su...... Until you have reorganized the town hall, it is not convenient for us to ...... This is what Master Barnes meant. ”

Xu Nan snorted coldly, looking even more unhappy.

The waiter was silent, lest he anger the fabled woman with a penchant for eccentricity.

"How many estates does the Sebaron family have in Wildfire City?"

He asked suddenly.

"Two ...... If you count the plantations, it's three. ”

The waiter hesitated for a moment, but replied, "We are now going to the most lively South Manor, where most of the young children live; The North Manor is an old manor house where only the older generation of the Sebaron family is eligible to live in, where the guards are stricter. As for the plantation, it's not up to us who are below us to know about it. ”

"Generally, the head of the family lives in the North Manor, and three years ago, the South Manor was in charge of Young Master Barnes."

Xu Nan nodded, satisfied with his answer.

The Sebaron family is a soil emperor in Wildfire City, and the north and south manors and plantations on the surface are secretly unknown to how many properties there are; The people of the ice field all worked for him, and they exploited him; Still, it was harder to overthrow the de facto control of the Sebaron family than to ascend to the sky.

For those simple-minded Ice Plains people, it is estimated that overthrowing Sebaron is equivalent to taking away their jobs......

Xu Nan thought a lot.

Just as he continued to inquire about the situation of the Sebalon family, suddenly, a rapid whistling sound came from the sky!

It's like the sound of a plane crash landing!

Xu Nan suddenly opened the window of the carriage.

In the gloomy weather, he saw a stream of fire, which streaked across the sky and flew in the northwest direction!

Is that......

The direction of the Living Corpse Swamp!

"Is something wrong?" He muttered to himself.

No, it stands to reason that Gray only ran over this morning, and he's not a magician, so he won't summon meteorites like this?

"The rumors are really true......" The waiter also looked confused, and there were words in his mouth.

Xu Nan grabbed him: "What rumors?" ”

The waiter hurriedly said, "Recently, there has been a rumor in Wildfire City. ”

"There is a treasure hidden in the swamp of the living corpse, and that treasure longs for his master, who seems to be an evil and powerful being, but has died many years ago; Now, the treasure has been revived and is looking for his owner. ”

"There are a lot of adventurers who want to try it, but there is no more news so far."

"Didn't that light just now confirm the birth of the treasure?"

Xu Nan glanced at him meaningfully:

"You know a lot, it seems that you are not an ordinary steward."

The waiter was slightly stunned, and then knelt down in fear:

"Lord of the Castle!"

"I just followed the chief steward a little more, watched more, listened more, and thought more; I'm just an ordinary steward. All that stuff just now, it's all nonsense from me! ”

Xu Nan looked at this waiter and felt a little interesting.

"Martin, is that?"

"Do you know how to call me Lord Castle now?"

"Don't worry, I won't tell you the big steward, you're working for the Blackwater......"

Xu Nan smiled and patted Martin's shoulder.

At that moment, Martin's pupils shrank rapidly, but on the surface, he was still smiling: "Lord City Lord, laughed. ”

"I grew up in South Manor, how could it be ......"

Xu Nan told him to shut up, just stop in moderation.

The waiter was silent for a moment, his expression cloudy.

Xu Nan actually just casually tested it, but he didn't expect to really catch a second or fifth boy hidden in the Sebalon family.

"Go back and tell you boss that poisoning me is the stupidest option."

Xu Nan said coldly.

Martin said bitterly: "The poison is not ours. ”

The implication is that he has admitted that he is from the Blackwater. Martin also thought very clearly, Sue's identity was untouchable. In addition to the brain-dead poisoner, whether it is the Blackwater Gang or Cebaron or the other forces of Wildfire City, if they want to go further, they must use the identity of a legitimate puppet city lord.

This person is the second lady of the quicksand.

Even if his identity is exposed, the Blackwater Gang probably won't care about the life or death of his little informant.

Now if he wants to live, he must win Sue's trust!

In other words, lick and you're done!

"Is that so?"

Xu Nan looked at him with some amusement, and suddenly closed the curtains:

"Let's keep walking."

Martin cautiously asked, "Where to go?" Over there in the swamp, or South Manor? ”

Xu Nan said lazily:

"South Manor, of course."

"What's in the Living Swamp, it's none of my business anyway."

Martin nodded, "Okay, okay." ”

With that, he urged the coachman to continue on his way.

The carriage started slowly and galloped away in the direction of the South Manor.

……

Living Corpse Swamp.

In a deep swamp, a silver-white metal skeleton slowly floated up, but it looked a little small between the silt.

Not far away, a few living corpses walked by, they had no interest in this non-living form, and soon went elsewhere.

Before long, there was only a dead silence in the place.

The intermittent sound of machinery came from the quagmire:

"Lord of the Castle ......"

Coordinate Positioning Deviation ......

"Lord of the Castle ......"

Suddenly, the image of a silver-haired little Lori flashed. She looked at the gray sky and the dirty swamp with some melancholy, and sighed deeply, her eyes full of confusion.

Soon, her figure disappeared, and even the silvery-white metal sank.

The vision of the Living Corpse Swamp spread throughout Wildfire City in the space of one afternoon.

Adventurers are gearing up, and careerists are beginning to plot.

For a time, various topics about the living corpse swamp were very loud.

Some adventurer squads are even openly recruiting, wanting to gather to clean up the living corpses and explore the so-called treasures!

……

The hustle and bustle in Wildfire City has nothing to do with Xu Nan.

Before nightfall, he had arrived at the South Manor of the Sebaron family.

Built to the west of the Ghost Mother Forest, the southern manor has a forest farm and two mines, and the southern part is said to have a frozen lake that is home to some of the most mythical fish that are active all year round, and is a famous fishing spot near Wildfire City.

The carriage wheeled through the not-so-deep snow to the atrium of a new castle.

Xu Nan got out of the car and looked up.

The castle is obviously newly built, leaning against a not-so-high cliff with the Ghost Mother Forest behind it.

In the atrium, there is a tall statue, Xu Nan has seen this person, it should be the ancestor of the Sebaron family, the person who followed Sir Barton's achievements.

Barnes wore his cloak and seemed to have been waiting for a long time.

The castle was lit with fire, and judging by the number of carriages in the atrium, today's dinner looked like it was going to be lively.

Xu Nan got out of the carriage, and suddenly, there was a strange throbbing in the depths of his blood!

……
