Chapter 75 Big cats are also cats, werewolves...
The dock at night is undoubtedly chaotic and dangerous.
Because just having to deal with so many pickpockets is already quite a headache.
Not to mention the endless robberies, thefts and vicious fights.
Especially the last one, once it starts, it will quickly spread to the entire pub and hotel.
The drunkard couldn't tell who hit him first. He only knew who was closest to him and beat him severely.
In this avalanche chain reaction, almost no one can be spared.
At a glance, dozens of people fighting together without distinguishing between friends and foes looked quite spectacular.
Unless a nearby thieves guild intervenes, the beating will usually be until no one can stand up from the ground.
Fortunately!
The soldier's tall and muscular build, as well as the full-body armor he wore, successfully deterred those with evil intentions.
After all, most uneducated ordinary people tend to have a more intuitive understanding of things that can be seen and touched, such as body shape, weapons and equipment.
Even the stupidest guy will not easily provoke a strong man who looks like he can push himself to the ground with a blaster.
What's more, the full-body armor worn by this strong man can almost easily withstand light weapons such as daggers, daggers, long swords, and scimitars.
Only heavy weapons such as axes and warhammers, or magic weapons, can pose a threat to it.
In addition, anyone who can wear such a heavy armor and perform long-term activities without changing his expression or heartbeat can imagine his strength and physical attributes.
With the deterrence brought by the upgraded soldiers, Zuo Si and the two little werewolves did not encounter any trouble. At best, they only encountered a few beggars who were covered in filth.
For these poor people who were either disabled or skinny and lost the ability to work, and were not even worth becoming slaves, Zuo Si asked the soldiers to give each of them a silver coin to buy food.
It’s not that I don’t want to give more.
But more than one silver coin will cause unnecessary trouble.
Although Faerûn does not have an extremely disgusting and disgusting organization like the "Beggars Gang".
But those villains and hooligans don't mind robbing a beggar who has little ability to resist, and then go to the tavern to exchange for two glasses of low-quality watered beer.
A silver coin can not only give a beggar a few full meals, but also make it easy to hide, and at the same time, it will not lead to death. It is the most suitable.
Just as Zuo Si circled the pier for more than half a circle, Olis, who was wearing a large cloak and transformed into a half-human and half-wolf form, suddenly stopped, raised his nose and sniffed the air hard. .
Soon, he pointed to a sailing ship not far away that was about thirty meters long, six meters wide and with a carrying capacity of two to three hundred tons and said: "Master! I smelled that on this ship. The smell of two people.”
"Oh? You have to be sure?"
Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and stared at the ship docked at the berth.
Contrary to the imagined tight security, the entire ship looked like an ordinary merchant ship, with only three people dressed as sailors on the deck to look after the goods.
But if you look carefully, you will find that there are two guys hiding in the shadows guarding the entrance to the lower cabin.
Whenever someone walks in, they immediately show up to check the other person's identity and some kind of "token" they carry with them.
Aulis nodded vigorously: "I'm very sure! Those two people have a very strong smell of perfume. I will never remember it wrong."
"Well done! Now, you and Fan Gus can go back and rest."
Zuo Si reached out and touched the werewolf boy's furry head.
Hmm...
It feels a little hard, but still within the acceptable range.
The boy was a little surprised that the "master" was willing to interact so closely with a "cursed" tribe like himself.
The wolf-like face suddenly showed a touched and flattered expression.
Of course, he didn't know that Zuo Si's skillful movements were all because he was used to petting dogs when he was on earth. When he saw small furry animals, he subconsciously reached out and touched them. For this reason, I often go to the hospital to get rabies and tetanus vaccines.
After all, in the eyes of "Fu Ruikong", "big cats" are also cats, and werewolves are essentially not much different from cute little dogs.
Although many stories and legends in Faerûn describe werewolves as bloodthirsty, brutal and merciless beasts.
But after getting along with each other for a period of time, Zuo Si felt that these little guys were not inherently evil and chaotic.
It’s just that sometimes it’s impossible to suppress the curse contained in natural lycanthropy.
Coupled with the long-term discrimination, rejection and disgust of lycanthropy patients in civilized society...
As a result, lycanthropy will inevitably become easier and easier as people age. Dominated by animal nature, he increasingly resents those "normal people" who once discriminated against and rejected him.
Once the curse is suppressed through magic rituals, Zuo Si can completely eliminate the drawbacks of lycanthropy and turn it into a truly powerful helper.
Not to mention anything else, just being good at inquiring about information and tracking through scent and footprints is enough to highlight the huge advantages of werewolves.
In addition, by transforming into a beast form or a half-beast form, you can also get all-round bonuses to strength, agility and physical attributes.
With a little training, you can become a natural warrior, ranger, or even a druid.
Seeing the two little werewolves disappear into the night, the soldier immediately asked: "Master, how do you plan to get in? You must know that we have not accepted the invitation, and we have no token to prove our identity."
"This is not simple.
Why did the other party take huge risks to hold a secret auction?
Of course it is to make more money!
So they There is no reason to reject an aristocratic young man who is rich, generous, and spoiled to spend a lot of money.
Remember, call me Master Hardman from now on.”
After saying that, Zuo Si took off the cloak used to hide his identity, revealing an expensive dress that he bought at a tailor shop for 150 gold coins half an hour ago.
Especially the large amount of hand-made gold thread embroidery and buttons inlaid with gems. Anyone who is not blind can recognize that this is definitely not something that ordinary wealthy families can afford.
What's more, children grow very fast.
The clothes that fit you this year may not fit you next year.
I am afraid that only the aristocracy of Calimport can be willing to customize such expensive and high-profile clothes for a child of about ten years old.
You don't need to ask to know that Zuo Si intends to take advantage of his appearance and age and sneak in directly by messing around.
After all, no one would doubt that a ten-year-old boy who looked noble, acted with a sense of superiority, and was obviously spoiled could be a spy from the Thieves Guild.
Just the opposite!
This is the most popular customer at all auctions.
Because once they see something they like or want, they don’t care how much they spend.
"That's it!"
The soldier immediately understood Zuo Si's thoughts, and immediately took out a heavy leather bag filled with gold coins from the dimensional bag he carried with him and carried it in his hand.
Following that, the two of them walked straight to the entrance of the ship to the lower cabin without any cover-up.
The moment they stepped onto the deck of the ship, both the sailor responsible for guarding the cargo and the two people hiding in the only entrance immediately cast wary glances.
Because they are too high-profile.
The attire is incompatible with the dock environment.
It feels like a wealthy aristocrat suddenly walks into the slums with his loyal guards, full of an indescribable sense of disobedience.
In order to act like a spoiled aristocratic young master, Zuo Si deliberately covered his nose with a silk handkerchief, his face full of disgust and disgust at the dirty surroundings.
