Chapter 234 Escape
The attack on the "Steam Wheel Research Studio" has been decided, and the specific arrangements are left to Melis and her watchmen to prepare. Once the combat plan is approved, it will be implemented immediately.
Helot first dealt with Cram’s escape.
Send him away as soon as possible to avoid long nights and dreams.
In the evening in a shantytown near the sea in Xinwan District, Hailot put on an ordinary jacket and walked in a narrow alley with his head down. He wore a sailor's hat and a pair of cowhide boots, like a sailor who had just gotten off the ship and was looking for fun.
In front of the small houses with pink lights on both sides, scantily clad girls were posing and posing. Some even lifted up their clothes when Herot passed by, revealing their trimmed "beards".
Helot quickly got out of the way and continued to move forward.
The air here is full of the smell of dead fish and rotten shrimps, and every breath is refreshing.
“Are we almost there?”
Arrived in a deserted place, Herot asked towards the darkness on the eaves.
Two pairs of green lights lit up, and then the shadow of a black cat appeared: "Come on, sir. It's the fishing boat in front..."
The black cat pointed the direction with its tail.
Helot discovered that walking forward a row of abandoned houses was the seaside. A fishing boat was parked in the water on the seaside, rising and falling with the waves.
A dim and lonely light was on in the cabin of the fishing boat.
That is the ship arranged by the Gray Light Society.
Helot then looked back. The cavalry was taking Cram to a stop in the shadows not far away. Cram was wearing a fat smock. His face was completely covered under the hood of his smock, and he could only walk with the help of an iron horse.
When the cavalry saw Herot waving, they walked forward with Kram.
Helot said to the Cavalry: "You follow Ye Guang to inspect the ship. I have something to say to Master Cram."
The Cavalry: "Yes, sir!"
Ye Guang is the name of the black cat. She jumped off the eaves and ran towards the fishing boat. After observing that there was no danger around, the cavalryman ran towards the fishing boat.
After Helot watched the cavalry get on the boat, he said to Cram: "You can leave on that fishing boat in a while, and they will send you to a cargo ship leaving the port. In a month, you will appear in a place where no one knows you." Your place. These gold pounds are my living support. I will arrange for someone to give you a sum of money every once in a while.”
Helot took out a wallet from his pocket and said. Open it so that Cram can see the gold pounds stuffed inside, which is the world's currency.
Kram took the wallet: "Thank you...when can I come back?"
"I don't know." Helot replied: "There are some things that I can't predict. , maybe one day the empire will no longer exist. But as long as the empire is here and I am here, you can come back and inherit the Sekom family one day."
Crum is not visible under the cover of the hood. expression.
After a while, he asked again: "Why does the deep prison need perfect metal?"
"Do you really want to know?"
"I want to know!"
" It seems that you are still reluctant to give it to me. It doesn't matter if I tell you, after all, it will no longer be a secret. The cavalryman who just brought you here is your father's guard captain. He met someone some time ago. And he was almost beaten to death by that man.
The Iron Cavalry said that the man had the bloodline of the Mad Lion Duke.”
"How is this possible?" Kram couldn't believe it.
The Rust Nobles were the main force fighting the rebels during the Blood Rebellion. Following the Golden Blood Family to defeat the nine founding Duke families is an honorable deed passed down from generation to generation for all Rust Nobles.
The perfect metal was discovered by the Secombe family when they massacred the Glaive Duke family. Then in the subsequent pursuit of nearly a hundred years, all nine descendants of the founding duke were killed. For hundreds of years, there has never been a confirmed descendant of the founding Duke who was exterminated. How come there are people with Zhan Kuang bloodline now?
Helot said: "I have never seen the authenticity of the Zhan Kuang bloodline, so I cannot make a judgment at will. But there are indeed people who are using the exterminated founding Duke to try to fight again. A bloody chaos. I think your father may know more, which is why you keep the secret of the perfect blade.
It's a pity you didn't keep the secret. ”
Cram knew that he had no choice. Only by handing over things that did not belong to the Secombe family could he exchange for his own peace.
Cram opened his hood and put his hand into his mouth. , pulled out a molar tooth.
Then broke off the diamond root.
"The address of the perfect metal is in this fire diamond. Just recite the correct words." The spell will appear. "Kram threw the fire diamond to Helot, and then said: "Let the cavalry come on board with me, and when I board the freighter safely, I will tell him the spell. ”
Herot caught the fire drill and flicked sparks between his fingers. The fire drill shone brightly under the sparks.
"Okay, anyway, I never thought of killing you if I got the thing."
Helot put the fire drill into his pocket.
After a while, the cavalry returned from the fishing boat.
"Sir, there is no problem with the boat."
Herot said to the cavalry: "Go with Master Cram, protect him safely on the freighter, and then bring back a spell."
"Yes, sir." The cavalry said to Cram: "Master Kram, come with me, I will escort you to the ship."
Kram put on his hood again, and saluted Helot again: "I would like to express my gratitude to you again."
< br>"Goodbye!"
Cram followed the cavalry to the waiting fishing boat.
Nightlight emerged from the darkness, and she took on human form, wrapped in a dark green tights.
A pair of tortoise-shell eyes were piercing: "Sir! Gu Mu asked me to tell you that a group of necromancers has arisen recently. They call themselves 'the ordained' and are actively recruiting tombkeepers to join them. The original ordained ones may come from the gravekeepers who once joined the Deep Prison. Some of the tombkeepers from the Deep Prison have already been attracted by them, so the Deep Prison is preparing to eliminate the 'ordained ones'
This section. Time, the deep prison should not have the extra strength to assassinate Ms. Irina."
Why did another group of necromancers pop up, and they were also the tombkeepers.
It’s a bit messy!
"What is the background of the ordained ones?"
Hei Guang shook his head: "We don't know yet. We only know that they developed very quickly and actively attacked many strongholds in the deep prison, causing great damage. As the As more and more gravekeepers join, a large-scale civil war may break out among the necromancers.”
Helot did not expect that the civil war in the empire would not start yet, but the necromancers would start the fight first. Get up.
Compared to the corpse stitchers who rely on the deep prison to grow and develop, the strength of the tombkeepers is obviously much smaller. I don’t know if the “ordained ones” can withstand it.
But the enemy of my enemy is my friend, and Helot felt that if he could help, he would still help them.
"Let Gu Mu find a way to contact the 'ordained ones', and say that there is a group of ancient mummies who admire the tomb keepers and want to join them."
Black Light stared and asked: "What are mummies?"
