Chapter 935 New Transaction
Game Time AM03:19
Free City, outside the Daytime District, in front of a certain house
“This is it, sir.”< br>< br> Cole bowed respectfully to Mo Tan. He had changed into black leather armor and hung two lightless daggers on his waist. He seemed to blend into the night. His slender figure looked a little blurry under the eaves, as if he had already Entered a state of high alert.
Although the target's counter-reconnaissance awareness this time was so weak that it was almost ridiculous, Cole Shuren, who had completely consolidated his realm at the high level some time ago, was not careless at all. This was different from the person beside him who seemed to be able to face any situation calmly. Mr. Adversity has nothing to do with it. In fact, under the latter's deliberate training, the 'orthodox thieves education' Cole received was entirely based on the routine of 'how to hide that he is a senior psychopath in society'. Apart from anything else, This young man has at least maxed out his vigilance skill points.
[To the effect] is equivalent to [death]. Mo Tan has nailed this concept into Cole's mind. Now this kid has to sleep at night with two daggers in his arms to feel at ease. .
From an objective point of view, this may be a morbid state of mind that is overkill, but it was this morbid state of mind that saved Cole before he truly became the King of the Night in the Free City. I don’t know how many lives.
Of course, that’s all for later.
Now we don’t talk about the future, we just talk about the present.
"Come in."
Mo Tan yawned lazily and gave Cole a look that said, "Go ahead and step on the thunder."
The latter understood it immediately and walked slowly to the door without making any sound. He took out a strange-looking blade from his cuff and carefully inserted it into the ordinary-looking blade. The keyhole of the keyhole was slightly exerted.
Click——
With an imperceptible crisp sound, the door of the house was opened without any drama.
The next second, Cole Shuren, who had always insisted on using Mo Tan's inhuman training method to hone himself, and was promoted to a high-level strength in just half a year with talent slightly higher than that of ordinary people, floated into the room. , completed the detection with extremely high efficiency like a ghost, turned around and made a very professional gesture to Mo Tan, which simply said [the house is safe, there is a secret passage inside].
Then...
"What do you mean?"
Mo Tan, who was standing at the door, smacked his lips and shouted carelessly to Ma Zai in the room.
Cole: "..."
"Don't mind, it's just to liven up the atmosphere."
Mo Tan smiled at Cole, who shuddered subconsciously as if his hair was exploding, and then strolled into this seemingly separate room. In the simple house outside, he tilted his head and asked the latter: "Where is it? "
Cole turned sideways, making way for the wooden shelf behind him that contained a small number of utensils. He raised his hand and pressed the second cup from the left on the middle layer, and then the wall behind him It sank quietly, revealing a dark passage.
“Let’s go down and have a look?”
Mo Tan laughed with interest and asked Cole for his opinion.
But the latter obviously did not dare to have any opinions, so when Mo Tan proposed this idea, he turned the dagger in his left hand and pressed somewhere on the side of the blade with ease, turning the handle of the murderous weapon into Something like a glow stick.
[Warm support for Xiao Lan] is one of the additional functions that Mo Tan added to Cole's dagger by virtue of his engineering attainments. Not only is the light source stable, but it is also convenient for charging and With two features: energy saving and environmental protection, it can complete calls of up to thirty minutes in any extreme environment.
It can even be used for lighting.
In short, Cole walked into this secret passage under the shadow of [Warmly Supporting Xiaolan], while Mo Tan hummed the small conch horn, Xia Ji played eight times, and the seagull listened to Xia "Ji Bafei~" followed the former, looking like a primary school student on an outing.
The length of this secret passage is average. Based on its structure, it can be roughly judged that the destination should be right below this house. If nothing else, it should lead to something similar to an illegal basement.
The interior of the passage is relatively clean, and the air is quite fresh and dry under the influence of several wind elemental formations above. Although it seems a bit eerie due to the lack of light source, there is no scary atmosphere.
The two of them walked down the cold and dry steps, and soon came to a spacious space that seemed to be similar in area to the one upstairs, but with much richer content.
There is a magic crystal lamp every half meter on the surrounding walls. Most of them are relatively cheap models, while the few that look quite luxurious all exude red light and have printed words on them. There is the emblem of the Bloodwing family.
Under the soft and inconsistent light source, Mo Tan and Cole can easily see everything in this space, such as those heavy and wide tables, such as those large piles of The manuscript papers that are together, such as the experimental table with various black liquids, such as those strange-shaped glassware on the ground, such as a large number of heavy books, such as the tall figure who is reading one of the books.
Yes, there are people in this place.
"Hey, man."
While Cole subconsciously tensed up his body, ready to deal with possible attacks at any time, Mo Tan walked briskly to the man who was standing in the middle of a pile of books, reading hard. The tall figure greeted with a smile: "Good evening~"
That was a man who was only shorter than Anthony Dabbs. He has limited points and looks very strong. He hides himself in a wide black cloak. His hands holding the book are very wide. He wears thick gloves full of mechanical texture. His face under the hood also wears a full-coverage The mask only left a few holes that seemed to be used for seeing and breathing. The movements were a little clumsy, but there was an inexplicable calmness about it.
"Well..."
The deep voice did not seem inconsistent with the appearance. The huge figure of the owner slowly turned to Mo Tan, and he lowered his head to look slowly. towards his face until a few seconds later, the man with a thick nasal voice A voice came from under the mask: "Welcome, uninvited guest blessed by the dark night. I am willing to give you enough time to turn around the sand of dark light twice to explain your purpose. There is no need to thank you or be grateful. Everything is inevitable and all is cause and effect."< br>
Cole was calmed down at that time, staring at the huge man in front of him with a mysterious aura in surprise.
“Your generosity is enough to light up the entire night sky.”
Mo Tan bowed grandly, and then sat unceremoniously next to the experiment filled with countless bottles of black liquid. On the stage, he said with a smile: "Since we don't know how long it will take to turn around the Sand of Dark Light, I will tell you straight to the point. My name is Severin Ink, which only represents Lesa Kevos. The countess extends her most sincere greetings and invitations to you."
The tall figure was silent for a while, and slowly put down the book "Magical Aquatic Plants and Their Characteristics in the Jinhui River": "Lessa Kay. Voss? The stars are whispering in my ears, they are singing, claiming that this name will bring me unknown, it is unclear and indiscernible hatred, maybe Severin Ink can tell Is this just a little joke of the stars?"
"Of course it is a joke, the singing of the stars is never worthy of our trust."
Mo Tan kept up with the opponent's rhythm perfectly and smiled: "If you are worried about whether the Kaivos family will hold a grudge because of the outstanding contributions you have made to the Bloodwing family in the past few months, then I can guarantee that , that beautiful countess had no intention of delving into this matter from the beginning. After all, we all know that the relationship between you and the Bloodwing family is just a simple employment relationship."
The other party fell into silence again. After a while, he crossed his legs and slowly sat on the ground. His tone seemed a little confused: "I feel the warmth of sincerity, but I am not sure whether it is trustworthy. Just like the stars can also lie, deep in your eyes The dark flames make me feel uneasy."
"I understand your concerns very well, but it is only the two of us here today instead of an elite member of the Kaivos family. Sincerity." Mo Tan lowered his eyes and chuckled while playing with his nails: "It's not deterrence or intimidation, only respect and sincerity. As far as I know, you are an outstanding researcher, and most of them The common problem of outstanding researchers is that it is difficult for them to reason clearly with mediocre people and defeat those who are unreasonable, isn't it? "
The other party just looked at it silently. He didn't speak.
"In other words, although I respect the knowledge in your mind very much, I doubt that you, with such a strong body, can survive three moves under the hands of the Ma boy next to me. Oh, please don't get me wrong, this is not a threat. "
Mo Tan shrugged and raised his eyebrows: "Let's skip those boring and boring trials. At least those things are meaningless to me personally. Justice, to put it straight to the point, since you can reach a cooperative relationship with Mr. Raphael Bloodwing at his invitation, I mean a pure cooperative relationship, then naturally there is no reason to reject Kaivos now that the Bloodwing family has been annexed. The family’s olive branch, isn’t it?”
“A new contract?”
The other party asked in a thoughtful tone.
"A new transaction."
Mo Tan stood up, opened his arms and smiled: "The beautiful Countess Kaivos is willing to meet everything Raphael Bloodwing promised you, and even offer more favorable conditions."
"I We need a more comfortable space, at least more comfortable than here "
The other party nodded slightly after a moment of silence, and while playing with the book "Magical Aquatic Plants and Their Characteristics in the Jinhui River" in his hand, he said at a slightly faster speed than before: "There is also Some equipment adequate to accommodate more truth, of course, There should be some regrettable money related to common things in this contract, but I will not ask for too much in this regard."
Mo Tan nodded slightly: "Then, tell me what you want. Good at it, sir."
"Flying spirits. It is my lifelong wish to share their limited knowledge with me and concoct potions that lead to bliss, but please also note that I, who can hear sounds, cannot be confused with those vulgar alchemists. I have no intention of delving into some pale And empty formulas. ”
The man who once helped the Bloodwing family find out how to control Ilili's source blood laughed softly and clapped his hands gently: "But I have the third eye given by God. It is an invisible substance and can get rid of countless rigid stereotypes. You must carefully consider your vision before deciding whether to sign a contract with me. You must concentrate on whether I can become a satisfactory contractor."
Mo Tan grinned and said casually: "It doesn't matter, I know a girl with a similar nature to you. She can always bring countless surprises."
The other party was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly and said: "Maybe she is my kind and can hear the surprises." The whisper of the spirit and the stars, the transcendent person blessed by talent."
"Okay, please tell me your name now."
Mo Tan glanced at the system time. He changed the topic listlessly.
"Cholera Tazdingo."
After a moment's hesitation, the other party finally reported his name, which was the same information that Mo Tan asked from Raphael.
“Cole.”
Mo Tan snapped his fingers.
"Yes, sir."
The young high-level thief immediately took a step forward.
“Take Mr. Cholera to Keyworth Manor, tell Xiao Ai and our countess what happened here, and then ask them to send some people to clean up and transport everything in this house. "Go to the manor and leave."
Mo Tan gave the order briskly, and then added with a slight curl of his lips: "If you find any sign of Mr. Cholera not cooperating on the road, even if it is just because of your drinking today. Don't hesitate to kill him immediately if there are too many."
"Yes, sir."
Cole nodded without hesitation and walked over. In front of a mysterious alchemist who called himself Cholera Tazdingo, he politely invited: "Let's go, Lord Cholera."
Cholera: "..."
After a second and a half of silence, which was the total time it took for Cole to turn the dagger in his hand and turn the blade to the front, Cholera nodded cooperatively and talked with Cole. I left together.
Five minutes later
Mo Tan stretched his body lazily and wandered around the 'basement' like a leisurely stroll alone, slowly inspecting everyone in it. Something to be able to see the description of the item.
Books, scrolls, magic patterns, utensils...
Mo Tan, who was extremely patient, spent nearly half an hour reading these things one by one. At the end, he picked up one of the bottles of black liquid on the experimental table and put it to his mouth and took a sip.
Then he spat out the mouthful of stuff, with a very disgusted expression on his face.
"It tastes really bad..."
Mo Tan squinted his eyes and carefully looked at the bottle of [suspicious semi-finished reagent] in front of him, and said to himself in a very soft voice Said: "But this smell seems a little bit familiar."
......
At the same time
Southwestern Continent, Griffin Dynasty, Royal Capital Brorid, Blood Oath Courtyard
“It’s time for you to set off, Eliza.”
“I know Yes, brother.”
“How sure?”
"It's just because we don't know that it's more interesting."
"Oh, that's right..."
