Chapter 75: Killing Intentions Appear
"Let him come in."
With some impatientness, he waved the scared maids around him to disperse them. The man in the brocade robe slowly opened a pair of slightly cloudy gray eyes.
A moment later, a big man wearing brown nail armor and clearly missing a piece of his left ear appeared quickly at the entrance of the hall with the thin man in black just now.
"Little man squid bone, pay homage to the city lord." The man with a resentful look on his face had just entered the door and immediately saluted respectfully.
"Forgive it."
He waved his hand casually, and the man in the brocade robe glanced at the resentful man and said with interest: "Why, squid bone, the mercenaries under his command have committed another crime? How many of them have been killed this time?"
"I'm not hiding it to the City Lord, this time, it was my man who was plotted against."
On the other side, the angry man called the squid bone had a look of killing intent across his face and said angrily: "How dare I touch my people at the city gate in front of so many people, those guys, don't even want to escape from my palm!"
"City gate? I've heard the report of that matter."
The man in brocade robe gracefully raised the goblet beside him, shaking the burgundy liquid in it, and teased: "Didn't your deputy commander and his subordinates suddenly suffer from food poisoning when they were in conflict with a few foreigners?
Even a few foreigners need to be buried with you in this kind of thing? Forget it, go and do it cleanly."
"Master Lord, this group of people will naturally not let go of them.
However, the situation was not as simple as the city lord thought." The hostility on the squid bone's face became more and more obvious, and he said coldly.
Immediately afterwards, he turned around and closed the door of the hall, and then said, "At the beginning, the villain thought it was really food poisoning, but later he thought about it more and more something was wrong, so he tied up Master Bubo, the number one in the city's treatment department, and conducted further inspection.
Finally, it was discovered that Shui Mang and others had a high possibility that they would be hit by a third-level dark mental attack."
"oh?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man in brocade robe put down his wine glass, nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Although the strength of the old man Bubo is only of the second-level nine stars, his knowledge is far better than that of ordinary third-level strong men.
Since the other party can make such a guess, it is basically the same as the other party.
So, among those outsiders, there is a third-level magic powerhouse?"
"The City Lord is very insightful. It seems that the villain's third-level leather armor with magic resistance can play a role."
With a gloomy smile, the squid bone continued, "The most important thing is to blame for the city lord.
The villain has sent someone to investigate in detail, and the list of all the strong people was discovered after repeated cross-comparison.
There is no third-level dark-type strongman in the country who meets the other party's muscular man, weird priest robe, glasses and other related characteristics, which is a bit intriguing."
"So that's it. Recently, there have been frequent wars on the border and have been completely blocked. It can also be ruled out that the strong men from other countries..."
On the other side, the thin man rolled his eyes and then agreed, "Sir, it seems that something is wrong with this matter."
"What do you two have any thoughts about the identities of those out-of-town people?"
After pondering for a moment, the expression of the man in the brocade robe began to become gloomy, and a murderous aura gradually emerged.
"Sir, do you remember the report about the arrival of the lord from another world that came at the banquet last night?" The thin man's eyes turned again and said in a stern manner.
"Yes, the villain is exactly this guess." This time, it was the turn of squid bone to agree.
"What do you mean is that there are lords from another world coming near the area where we are? And, the other party is in the city now?"
Hearing this, the face of the man in the brocade robe turned completely cold, and a strong murderous aura spread around him.
Feeling this extremely cold breath, the thin man first glanced at the squid bone.
Then, he said, "Mr. City Lord, this is a poisonous sting under our noses. If it is not pulled out, there will be endless troubles."
"I naturally know this more than you."
He slowly stood up from the throne, and the man in the brocade robe laughed furiously and said in a sequel: "Haha, it seems that the other party is very brave. Before I could send troops to wipe it out, I came to my door."
After thinking for a moment, the chief man in brocade robe ordered the thin man: "Bai Tsui, immediately notify Guanzhong to organize the garrison army and secretly lie in the front and back gates of the two cities.
Once you find that there is a target that meets the characteristics of that group of people, or similar characters appear, you will kill them on the spot without reporting."
"Squid bone, you take your people and search in from the outside of the city.
I personally led the guards to search from the inside of the city. We will take three steps to find the group of people even if we dig three feet into the ground.
Of course, the most important thing is not to alert the enemy, and avoid letting the other party discover that we have already noticed it."
After everything was arranged, the man in the brocade robe raised his goblet again and pinched it to pieces.
Tick tick tick.
In an instant, the wine-red liquid and glass slag flowed along his big hands on the precious carpet under his feet, and began to spread like blood.
"Are you a lord from another world? Since you are here, then leave your life behind."
...
After coming out of the Shanglu Trading Fair again, Lei Xiao couldn't help but curl his lips, according to Fang Hai's description just now.
Their president has not returned from the city to attend the family meeting and will not return at the earliest.
It seems that the plan for this step can only be slightly delayed.
However, after the other Fang Hai's indirect attack just now, Lei Xiao learned about it.
It is indeed as Kombo described. This young president of the family's side department is indeed not very popular with the family.
Especially because of his good talent, he was excluded and jealous of people of his family's direct descendants, so he was finally assigned to Kongqing Town, which had almost no cultivation resources.
"Lord, what should we do next?"
Walking back on the bustling street, the scepter beside him asked respectfully.
"Let's see how the materials are purchased first. After all, this is our main purpose here."
Smiling slightly, Lei Xiao and Konohashi began to move towards the warehouse they had rented before.
However, not long after walking out, the body of the skull stopped and the calm expression on his face changed slightly.
"Kombie, what's wrong?" Lei Xiao couldn't help but show a look of doubt when he noticed the strangeness of the strong man beside him.
"Lord, if my subordinates are not mistaken, the other party seems to have discovered our existence."
