Chapter 75 Murderous intent emerges
"Let him in."
The man in brocade robes impatiently waved away the frightened maids around him, and slowly opened a pair of cloudy gray eyes.
A moment later, a big man wearing brown studded armor, with a piece of his left ear obviously missing, quickly appeared at the door of the hall together with the thin man in black clothes just now.
"The little man Squidbone, pays homage to the Lord of the City."
The big man with a surly face just entered the door and immediately saluted respectfully.
"No need."
The man in the brocade robe casually waved his hand, glanced condescendingly at the arrogant man, and said with interest: "Why, Squid Bones, your mercenaries committed another crime? How many did you kill this time?"
"To be honest with you, Lord City Lord, this time it was the villain who was tricked."
The violent man known as Squid Bone had a look of killing intent on his face, and said angrily: "How dare you touch the villain's men at the city gate in front of so many people, those guys must pay the price with blood!"
"At the city gate? This city lord has already heard the report."
The man in brocade robes gracefully raised the goblet in his hand while swaying the wine-red liquid in it.
While teasing: "Didn't your deputy commander and his subordinates suddenly suffer from food poisoning when they had a conflict with a few outsiders? Even such a thing would require a few outsiders to be buried with them? Forget it, go ahead. Well, just do it cleanly.”
"Lord City Lord, that group of villains will naturally not let go. However, the situation is not as simple as Lord City Lord thought."
The anger on Cuttle Bone's face became more and more obvious, and he said coldly.
I saw him turn around and close the door of the hall tightly, and then said: "At first, the villain thought it was really food poisoning, but then the more he thought about it, the more something was wrong, so he gave Master Bubo, who ranked first in the treatment department in the city, They were tied up and conducted further inspection, and finally found that Shui Mang and others were most likely hit by a third-level dark spiritual attack."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man in brocade robes put down his wine glass, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Although the strength of old man Bubo is only second-level nine-star, his knowledge is far better than that of ordinary third-level strong men."
"Since Bubo can make such speculation, it is basically inseparable."
The gaze of the man in brocade robes became more serious, and he asked: "So, among those outsiders, there is a third-level magic powerhouse who is good at using dark attribute spiritual attacks?"
"Your Majesty, City Lord, it seems that the villain's third-level leather armor with magic resistance can work."
Cuttlefish Bones smiled sinisterly and continued to report: "The most important thing is that the villain has sent people to conduct a detailed investigation of the most authoritative list of strong men. After cross-checking, it was found that our country did not match the opponent's muscular man, weird priest robe, and glasses. A third-level dark powerhouse with related characteristics is quite intriguing.”
"There have been frequent wars on the border recently and it has been completely blocked. It can also be ruled out that strong men from other countries are coming here."
The skinny man not far away rolled his eyes and echoed: "Lord City Lord, it seems there must be something fishy about this matter."
"What do you two think about the identity of that group of outsiders?"
The look of the man in brocade robes began to darken, and a faint murderous aura gradually emerged.
"Lord City Lord, do you still remember the report about the arrival of the lord from another world during the banquet last night?"
The skinny man rolled his eyes again, and reminded him sternly.
"Yes, this is exactly what the villain guessed."
This time, it was Squidbone's turn to chime in.
"You mean to say that there is also a lord from another world within my city lord's sphere of influence? And that other party is now arrogant in the city? This is defying the authority of my city lord."
Hearing this, the face of the man in brocade robes turned completely cold, and a strong murderous aura immediately spread around him: "To be assisted by a third-level powerhouse so quickly, this alien lord has some tricks up his sleeve."< br>
"As expected of the Lord of the City, your aura is truly extraordinary!"
Feeling the unusually cold breath, the skinny man looked at the cuttlebone first, and then said: "Sir City Lord, this is a poisonous thorn buried under our noses. If we don't uproot it, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles." Ah.”
"Of course, this city lord knows better than you. None of these alien lords can be kept."
The man in brocade robe slowly stood up from the throne, and said with an angry smile: "Haha, the other party is very courageous. Before I could send troops to destroy him, he came to the door himself."
I saw the man in brocade robe thinking for a moment, and first ordered to the skinny man: "Bancha, you immediately notify Guanzhong to organize the garrison, and secretly ambush all the troops at the front and rear gates of the city. Once you find someone who matches the characteristics of that group of people, Targets or similar characters appear and are killed on the spot without reporting.”
"Squid Bones, lead your people to search from the outside of the city inward. The Lord of the City will personally lead the personal guards to search from the inside of the city to the outside."
"With this three-pronged approach, even if we have to dig three feet into the ground, we still have to find this group of people. The city's main leader will personally cut that despicable alien and his subordinates into pieces."
"The most important thing is to keep your aura under control. Don't alert the other party or let the other party find out. We are already aware of it."
After arranging everything properly, the man in brocade robe raised the goblet again and crushed it to pieces.
Tick tock.
The wine-red liquid and glass shards flowed down his big hand and onto the expensive carpet under his feet, and began to spread like blood.
"Lord from another world? Now that you are here, let's stay alive."
……
After coming out of the Phytolacca Trade Fair again, Lei Xiao curled his lips helplessly.
According to Fang Hai's description, their president has not returned from the city for a family meeting and will not be back until tomorrow night at the earliest.
It seems that this step of the plan can only be slightly delayed.
However, after Fang Hai's insinuation just now, Lei Xiao learned more.
Things are indeed as described by Kunbu. This young president, who is a branch of the family, is indeed not well received by the family.
Especially because of his good talent, he was shunned and jealous by his direct family members of the same age, so he was finally assigned to Kongqing Town, which had almost no training resources.
"Lord, what should we do next?"
Walking on the bustling street again, Hezhuang asked in a low voice.
"Let's go see how the material purchase is going first. After all, this is the main purpose of our coming here."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly, and then, together with Hezhuang, they began to move towards the warehouse they rented before.
However, not long after he walked out, Knotweed's figure stagnated, and the peaceful expression on his face changed slightly.
"Knotweed, what's wrong?"
Keenly aware of the strangeness of the strong man next to him, Lei Xiao couldn't help but have a puzzled look on his face.
"Lord, if my subordinates guessed correctly, the other party seems to have noticed our presence."
Knotweed's expression suddenly became serious. (End of chapter)
