Chapter 318 Settlement! 【Night of Molten Iron and Burning Steel】


Chapter 318 Settlement! 【Night of Molten Iron and Burning Steel】

Early morning, Wolfhound Tavern.

After returning from the Golden State Bank, Luo Xiu only slept lightly and woke up from the bed very early.

He has been thinking about "Velino Bakar"——

Although he and Qiao Devin had already agreed that the illegitimate son of Marquis Bakar must die, Luo Xiu was thinking about something deeper.

In the previous interrogation of Hodwell, Hodwell had confessed everything he knew.

But this is not enough - because in the secret note that Anthony brought back from the Holy Judgment mission in Oncica Town, it is also recorded that the new body destroyers were secretly sent to the imperial capital by the "flesh and blood sacrifice". arrange.

Luo Xiu, who had sat upright on the bed with a serious expression on his face, began to think deeply about something.

Obviously, the illegitimate son of the Marquis "Velino Bakar" does not have the ability to reach out to the Imperial Capital. This shows that there are other "Order Killers" on the line above Velino and in the Imperial Capital, and their power and hierarchy They are far higher than him.

But this is not information that only Hodwell, the fourth-level fateful "Fire Bronze Knight", has access to.

Even Luo Xiu clearly remembered that the secret note allowed the "flesh and blood sacrifice" to treat Hodwell as an abandoned son when necessary. Obviously, Hodwell was not important in the eyes of the person who wrote the secret note. .

But could "Velino Bakar" be the one who wrote the secret note?

Luo Xiu expressed doubts about this, but was not convinced of this quickly, and just kept this possibility open.

But regardless of whether the person who wrote the secret note was Velino or not, Luo Xiu would kill him for the sake of safety and to hide the rewards of the mission, and completely eradicate this scourge.

As for the Order Killer in the "Imperial Capital", Luo Xiu does not consider investigating more for the time being - the unknown danger is one of the reasons. If this provokes a high-ranking person in the [Supreme] seventh level of destiny, or even Emperor Augustwell himself. attention, then the gain outweighs the loss.

His current plan is just to kill "Velino Bakar" himself - to directly cut off the link between the "Sequlers" from the imperial capital to the grassroots level, causing a gap in the exchange of information between them, and therefore There will no longer be unnecessary eyes looking into the whereabouts of the sealed letter in Oncica Town.

Luo Xiu planned this for the time being. He was also recalling in his mind whether there were any related plots in his previous life.

But no matter how he searched his memory, he didn't have even the slightest impression of the great "Sequlayer" disaster that broke out in Songyuan City.

Perhaps that "murder" had already happened secretly, but was solved quietly by the Marquis...

Because of the special status of "Velino Bakar", it is possible that the lord's mansion will not make it public, or even treat it as a secret that needs to be strictly guarded.

At that time, the players had only three levels of destiny at most, and were far from the power level that could access such level of intelligence.

or.

Or maybe the "killing" didn't happen at all?

Because in his previous life, Marquis Bakar planned to go to the Kuma Territory to participate in the counter-rebellion much later, and "Thunder General" Albert did not go to Red Maple City.

Lord Gawain and Albert, the two "saints" at the peak level, at least one of them will stay in Songyuan City at any time.

If "Velino Bakar" had just been promoted to the fifth level of destiny "Saint", he would have absolutely no chance of winning against either Gawain or Albert.

His only advantage is probably his identity as the eldest son of the real Marquis Bakar, but this identity is not even recognized by the Marquis...

According to the progress in his previous life, this little Bakar could not make any waves. He might have died down because he could not see the chance of winning.

And now this little Bakar is obviously drifting away... Luo Xiu thought.

But no matter what, the fact that "Velino Bakar" is the Sequlayer will not change.

Therefore, Luo Xiu was equally determined to kill him.

Under Luo Xiu's arrangement, Intis and the other Holy Abyss apostles lurking in Songyuan City had already gone to investigate his address and launched a close surveillance on him.

But to be on the safe side - just as Luo Xiu and President Qiao Dewen discussed, Luo Xiu will not take action immediately.

That will wait until three days later, when the spiritual remnants of Jodwin's "soul grabbing" from Hodwell have completely dissipated.

That's the safest way.

And a well-prepared blow is the most deadly.

……

While thinking about that "Velino Bakar".

Luo Xiu had gotten up from the bed, walked to the window, and opened the curtains with a snap.

The sun suddenly shone in, making the room instantly brighter. His mind was temporarily cleared of thoughts about Velino, and he instead thought about today's arrangements.

Luo Xiu took out the "Silver Dial Compass" from his bracelet and glanced down.

The mercury needle on it has begun to swing very slightly, indicating that "Hidden Elder" Babelun is getting closer to his position, and is only about half a day's journey from Songyuan City.

And according to what Luo Xiu told "Holy Deacon" Hubert before, his arrangement for coming to Songyuan City - when Babylon approaches Songyuan City, he will temporarily break away from tracking Babylon and enter first. He met with the Archbishop in Songyuan City to inform him immediately about the "Hidden Elder" Babelun and the Black Crystal Factory.

This kind of timing card is perfectly matched, and there is absolutely no risk of leakage in advance. It can catch Barberon and Sombra Factory off guard and achieve the goal of killing two birds with one stone.

"It's almost time..."

Luo Xiu murmured, he looked at the silver dial compass in his hand again, and then put it back into the storage bracelet.

Just this morning, let’s go to the main church to meet with the Archbishop...

Luo Xiu planned this, this was his top priority when he came to Songyuan City.

But before he finished eating and washing, and prepared to actually leave for the main church,

He suddenly felt a tremor in his spirit——

That is the spirituality of the "Holy Abyss" that is connected to him and his "Holy Abyss Apostles".

This tremor is pure and strong. It belongs to the same level as Luo Xiu, and there is only one "Apostle of the Holy Abyss" at this level...

——"Executioner" Koros!

Koros initiated spiritual transmission. He seemed to have something that he wanted to report to his "Lord".

Luo Xiu had a vague suspicion, so he closed and locked the doors and windows, summoned the "Shadow Raven" to create a real phantom of himself, and then sat back on the edge of the bed, with a deep red color appearing on the back of his hands. The dragon claw mark.

The crimson rings of transmission floated one after another, and Luo Xiu's figure became dim and gradually dissipated between the flickering of light and shadow.

And the scene in his eyes also underwent huge changes, as if the world was distorted.

The real world disappeared from his eyes, and the world belonging to the "Holy Abyss" slowly condensed.

Until all the lines coincided and overlapped with the scenes in his memory, Luo Xiu had arrived in the royal hall that belonged to him alone. He saw "Executioner" Koros kneeling there, with a flash of emotion on his face. Showing enthusiasm.

"Lord!"

After seeing the arrival of "Lord" Luo Xiu, Koros bowed devoutly to Luo Xiu, and then said excitedly:

"I've finished! I've completed the commission you gave me!"

Sure enough...

Luo Xiu understood completely in his heart.

The commission he had previously entrusted to "Executioner" Koros to complete was Bahrain's mission [Night of Molten Iron and Burning Steel]. The "completion" that Koros said could only be this matter.

He then nodded slightly and said in a slightly approving but still indifferent tone:

"I know."

"You did well, Kroos."

"So, where is what I want - the head of 'King of Burning Steel' Harris?"

The moment Luo Xiu finished speaking, Koros reached into his arms and took out a bright red bracelet.

The surface was as bright red as blood, and light like broken cinnabar was flowing in it. It is also a kind of "storage bracelet", but it is more evil. It can be used to store corpses with extraordinary spirituality... Through panel detection, Luo Xiu has understood his physical nature.

This is a creation of the combination of [Red Lotus] and [Intelligence], and is prohibited in the empire. But Luo Xiu was not surprised that Koros would use it to contain Harris's body.

Koroth held the crimson bracelet in his left hand, and his right hand was already rubbing its surface. Tiny spells lit up where his fingertips touched it.

A head - the head of "King of Burning Steel" Harris, was pulled out from the "ring" of the bracelet while the spells were flashing!

It was a middle-aged man with a red beard and braids. His hair was also braided like his beard, and the color was as if it had been dyed after being soaked in a vat of blood for a long time.

The expression of despair, doubt, fear, and unwillingness before his death still remained on his face, and this expression was finally fixed at the moment of death.

"He is 'King of Burning Steel' Harris, Lord."

Kross grabbed Harris's head with one hand and said to Luo Xiu enthusiastically:

"According to your instructions, after I led the army to station in Fafnir City and sent away Babelun, I immediately led the 'Haws' to the border settlements and locked the 'Steel Burners' Traces!”

"Late last night, in the name of 'execution', I launched a clearing campaign against several strongholds of the 'Burning Steel Furnace'. We bloodbathed them, and their leader, 'King of Burning Steel' Harris, was also killed by me. Kill it with your own hands!”

"..."

Koros talked enthusiastically about his achievements, but Luo Xiu didn't pay much attention to what he said after that.

Because the moment Kroos took out the head of "King of Burning Steel" Harris, Luo Xiu's mission panel suddenly jumped, and the mission progress of [Night of Molten Iron and Burning Steel] was advanced!

As long as Harris's head is delivered to Bahrain, Luo Xiu can complete the settlement of this commissioned task.

So, when Kroos wanted to describe in detail the details of his killing of "King of Burning Steel" Harris, Luo Xiu interrupted him:

"That's enough, Koros, that's enough."

He looked at Koros and said: "You have done a good job, Koros. So, do you have anything else to report to me?"

"Of course, of course! My great Lord."

Koros said: "We seized a large number of cursed weapons and equipment from the stronghold of the 'Burning Steel Furnace'."

"That can better arm the comrades of the 'Holy Abyss', or smelt them and reforge them into more powerful cursed weapons!"

"Also, we have captured the most important thing of the 'Steel-Burning Furnace' - the 'Steel-Burning Furnace'! We have captured a 'Steel-Burning Furnace'!"

Even the burning steel casting furnace was seized? Luo Xiu was quite surprised when he heard Kroos's report.

"I understand." Luo Xiu nodded and said:

"When the time comes, send all the cursed weapons, equipment, and the cauldron furnace you captured to the manor of 'Ghost Craftsman' Balin. By chance, I also have something to talk to him about."


"I will obey your will, Lord." Koros knelt down again and said piously.

……

Holy abyss.

"Ghost Craftsman" Balin, after he was brought into the Holy Abyss by the mourners and promised Luo Xiu to stay here, he was placed in a classical manor in the abandoned royal court.

Just like the "Forge Manor" of the dwarf Mir in the real world, Bahrain also has a similar forge manor, and the name is still named after "Bahrain Blacksmith Shop".

When Luo Xiu came here, the sound of "dang, dang--" was heard continuously from the depths of the manor. He had already seen the strong old man swinging the hammer again and again with his bare arms. It fell into the smelting furnace.

And in the hot smelting furnace, there are rows of molds of "bronze" keys.

That is Balin's main job in the "Holy Abyss" - since he came to the "Holy Abyss", he has forged nearly a thousand prototypes of keys, but it is not enough for Luo Xiu.

When he saw the "Lord of the Holy Abyss" arriving, Balin stopped swinging his hammer and walked towards Luo Xiu.

"How are you doing?"

Luo Xiu smiled and greeted Bahrain, "Are you still used to life in the 'Holy Abyss'?"

"...Not bad." Balin nodded.

"To be honest, I have seen a lot of new things."

"Orcs, humans and dwarves can live together so harmoniously, and even opposing destinies can find a corner to coexist here... This is indeed incredible, and it can also be called a miracle."

"Just get used to it." Luo Xiu smiled and nodded, and then said to Balin:

"I brought a gift for you, Bahrain, I hope you like it."

"What gift?" Balin tilted his head.

Luo Xiu no longer answered him, but took out the crimson bracelet that Koros had given him earlier from his arms, and handed it to Balin's hand.

"Open it." Luo Xiu said, "You will be happy."

Balin was stunned for half a second, but still followed Luo Xiu's instructions and activated the spell on it.

Then, one or two drops of blood dripped from it. When Balin pulled out a head from the bracelet, the expression on his face instantly stiffened.

It started with suspicion, then astonishment, then shock, then ecstasy...

And at the same time.

In Luo Xiu's task panel, the commissioned task [Night of Molten Iron and Burning Steel] has also been completed simultaneously——
