Chapter 27 The moment before the long journey begins(1/2)

 Thirteen federations, plateaus and mountains, today’s Apilion also has clear skies.

This is a giant city built on a plateau canyon. When the pioneers from the western part of the continent established simple settlements in this canyon, they probably could not have imagined that Apirio would one day become the largest and most populous city in the Thirteen Federations.

A prosperous city-state.

Different from the external trade of Rhodes, the desert capital of the federation, and Delos, and also different from the elegance and world-wide academic reputation of the academic capital, Apilion is geographically located in the center of the Thirteen Federations and is within the federation.

It is the most important trading point and political center, so all kinds of people come and go from this city.

The dwarf craftsmen of Ephesus, the factory owners of Mycenae, the grain merchants of Toroni and Loy, the artists of Miletus, the elegant scholars, the caravans of Rhodes, and the elven alchemists of Tiras,

There are also adventurers and travelers from all over the world, people with different purposes running around in the canyons and plateaus, living among all kinds of people.

The Wushan Tavern on the Misty Street in the middle of the canyon was uncharacteristically closed early when night fell.

Ignoring the protests of the two men who claimed to be regular customers, the tavern bouncer used his burly body to block the door of the tavern, repeating mechanical words over and over again, "No entry without permission."

A man couldn't help but cursed: "Whose permission? William? William of Qian Er doesn't even do business? He was the one who invited me here, what do you mean by not letting me in now?"

"No entry without permission."

"I'll do it! Don't delay my business, get out of the way and let me in!"

"No entry without permission."

The man rolled up his sleeves angrily and wanted to take action. Another man on the side grabbed him and whispered something in his ear.

The man looked at his companions in surprise: "Who can clear the place? William won't even bother with the gendarmerie when they come, right?"

"But the black market and the dark web... people from Syria before..."

The companion winked, and the man seemed to have thought of something. They talked in a low voice and silently backed away.

But unlike what they imagined, there were dozens of guests in the Wushan Tavern. They were scattered around the tavern, eating, drinking and resting quietly. In front of the tavern's bar, William, the burly and bearded tavern owner, was sitting.

Entertaining a white-haired boy sitting opposite him.

The white-haired boy's luxurious clothes and elegant manners make him look like someone who doesn't go to a tavern, but he sits comfortably in the tavern, as if this is his home court.

"It still takes a while for the person to meet. They will arrive in a quarter of an hour. The main reason is that the fog in the canyon made them go astray. Should we really say that it is the contact point of the black market and the dark web? It is really hidden."

William did not respond. He mixed the wine with an expressionless expression. The white-haired boy ordered a mixed wine cocktail in the style of the Kingdom of Jean, but specified that he wanted apple cider as the base.

"Do you know about twins? Mr. William."

William didn't respond. He quickly shook the cocktail shaker with his thick arms. After a few times, the original block of ice in the cocktail shaker had broken into smooth ice.

"Twins have the same appearance, almost the same etheric fluctuations, and there are even cases where twins share the same power. Oh, please help me add some mugwort slices and bitter coffee. The leaves should be half submerged in the wine. I like the fresh smell.

It's a little bitter."

The white-haired boy directed William's movements nonchalantly, and William silently followed his instructions. After he picked up a small piece of wormwood and immersed it in the wine, the amber concoction was completed.

"I did research in this area when I was studying in Elegance. There is a view that in the embryonic stage of life, the original single life body split into two for some reasons. Therefore, the ether of the original single life, the seed of the soul,

They were also divided into two parts. In other words, the twins were originally supposed to be one person."

William, who was muscular, pushed the wine in front of the white-haired boy. The boy stretched out his hand and took it. His thin arm seemed to be broken by William's slightest break.

The white-haired boy picked up the wine and took a sip.

"Well, although it looks good, the actual taste is not good. It is just a fake. It seems that Mr. William, you don't usually mix drinks. Increase the base wine by 15% and reduce the ice cubes by 100%.

Divide it into 20 parts, add ten milliliters more of bitter coffee, and make another cup."

Under the instructions of the white-haired boy, William remained silent and started to act again.

"Back to the topic of twins, I have a younger brother named Shiloh. Mr. William, you should know that, right?" The white-haired boy turned around and looked at everyone in the tavern, "Everyone knows it, right?"

No one responded.

"He doesn't have my magic talent, but he is somewhat talented in wielding swords and guns. I often wonder if this is what he took away from me. Please don't get me wrong. I'm not unhappy about this. After all, it's

After all, my family is my younger brother, and his achievements are affirmation of me to some extent, but his existence will remind me and tell me the fact that I am not complete."

The white-haired boy got up and walked among the tables in the tavern, among more than a dozen armed people, like a leisurely stroll in the courtyard after dinner.

"Everyone, please forgive me for talking so much. I only have one meaning." The young man's voice did not rise, but it sounded more majestic and irresistible, "Hiro, my brother,

He is my property. You are members of the Syrian Empire. According to the laws of Syria, if you want to deprive or harm the property of a nobleman, how should you judge? Sir, please answer me."

The man who was casually clicked by Shiloh had a stiff face, his jaw opened and closed as if uncontrollably, and his saliva was dripping out.

"Death, death, death penalty!"

"Ah, is that so? Your country's laws are really strict." The young man sighed, "Sir, please come with me. Your life needs to be handed over to others. As for others."

The young man clapped his hands, and the verdict was handed down in the silent tavern.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!

"Just follow the laws of your country and please make your own decisions."

The guests in the tavern began to move. Two of them drew their swords. They sat opposite each other at the table. They drew their swords in unison and stabbed each other's throats. Blood dripped into each other's wine glasses. Their lives were lost in silence.

Breath. Someone summoned a ball of fire that was compressed into the size of a fist. He opened his mouth with a numb expression and swallowed the fireball. His head exploded, and blood, flesh, gray brain, and dark bone fragments flew everywhere. Someone

He had no weapons and no magic. He took the tavern's knife and fork, like he was cutting a steak, cutting the fork back and forth to chop his own throat. As the dark red blood flowed out, his trachea was cut open, and he seemed to

I finally cut off the meat on the plate and smiled.

The tavern turned into a strange purgatory, and the white-haired boy felt calm. He sat back at the bar, picked up another glass of wine that William had mixed, picked it up gently, and took another sip.

"By the way, that's about it. Then Mr. William, please wait for the military police to come, and then explain the black market, dark network activities and secret communication with the Syrian Empire's armed forces. Calculate the time, my waiting

The people have arrived."

As soon as he finished speaking, the door of the tavern was pushed open, and the bodyguard stood aside meekly, making way for the two visitors.

The black-haired young man is Finn, and the mature woman with flaxen hair following him is Gina. Finn raised an eyebrow at the blood color in the tavern, while Gina looked slightly pale when facing the corpses of dozens of people.<

/p>

When the two of them saw the face of the white-haired young man, obvious wavering appeared on their faces.

"Hello, you two members of the Edge Guild." The white-haired boy stood up and performed the aristocratic ceremony of the Kingdom of Zeon. "I am Shiloh's brother Seer. I invited you two to come here. Please forgive me for leaving the tavern's

The environment has become so miserable that I couldn’t help but lose my temper just now when we were chatting about Shiloh. Do you two want to have a drink? Although I personally don’t recommend Mr. William’s craftsmanship.”

"Did you kill them all?" Finn asked in a deep voice.

"Yes, I have used my little personal ability, but it is really not enough to show off to you two. This gentleman can explain their origin and purpose to you. I have already given instructions." Seer smiled and pointed to the only person beside him.

Huokou, "All the people in the tavern are in the same group, but they are insignificant people and their knowledge is limited."

"The people who attacked us are from the Syrian Empire. They know Olive's purpose. The people who attacked us are all high-level potion extraordinary people. They are proficient in combat and cooperate with each other tacitly."

"Olive Drizzt, the chief graduate of Elegant University, a fifth-level mage recognized by the Mage Association, and a formal member of the Explorers Association... So, the whereabouts of Shiloh and my outstanding senior sister are still unknown? That's right.

Near the ruins of Asilon Lowlands? It's been fifteen days." Seer asked.

"It involves an unknown portal, so their true location is not yet clear."

"A team of elite combat teams from the Syrian Empire came all the way to use the black market activities of the Thirteen Federations to collect information on your actions, and then launched an attack after your war. Mr. Finn, Ms. Gina,

Does this sound too crazy to you?"

"That's the truth."

"I'm not questioning what you two said, I'm just thinking about their true purpose. Of course, of course, the most important thing at the moment is to find the whereabouts of Shiloh and the others. Can you please take me to the location of the incident to investigate? Although Fein

Sir, you are a fifth-level archmage and a fifth-level adventurer, so you will not miss clues, but I know some spells from the occult school of curses, and my powers may be useful, and I may be able to find some information from a different perspective."

Finn and Gina looked at each other.

"Okay, let's go together and find them quickly." As Gina was talking, she noticed that Seer suddenly lowered his head and looked at his empty wrist.

Only Seer could notice that a thin thread was wrapped around his wrist.

He suddenly closed his eyes.

Gina, who possesses powerful powers, can feel that some kind of active energy is churning in Seer's body at this time. She sees Seer slowly opening his eyes, and the corners of his originally smiling mouth finally have a real smile.

.

He asked the tavern owner William for a piece of paper and pen, left a line of information on it, and then handed it to Finn.

"I have changed my mind. Please go to this location now and prepare for the treatment of your companions. Also, please be careful and beware of a second attack."

After saying this, Seer stood up and walked out of the tavern.

Suddenly he seemed to have thought of something, turned around and smiled gently at the two of them, raised his index finger in front of his lips, "And please don't mention me to others, let alone Shiloh."

The white-haired boy politely said goodbye again and walked out of the blood-filled tavern.

……

……

At the same time.

Emerald Coast, where the Iliad Orthodox Church belongs.

Once again setting foot on a country-like land, the young "Ranger" Lily couldn't help but lament the paradise-like environment under the rule of the Iliad Orthodox Church.
