Chapter 69 The Chess Game of the Past VII(1/2)
"Looking for a woman?" Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, a little unsure: "We just noticed someone peeping in the dark, but we are not sure who the other person is."
"What a coincidence," the man said, "So are we, but we can see each other's appearance clearly." He gestured with his hand on his head. "She is a Lotao woman, with ears on her head."
Fang Yu was slightly startled, and a shadow flashed subconsciously in his mind. But he thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "One question, when did you discover each other?"
"About a few minutes ago."
"Ha, it's a coincidence for us, so are we." The Papalar man blurted out. But as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that there was something wrong with what he said. He turned back and looked at the others, who all had strange expressions on their faces.
Fang Yu then asked: "Then where did you find each other?"
The man also realized something was wrong and said hesitantly: "We met that woman near Ms. Fujiye's Hotel. What about you?"
"We are at Fisherman's Crossing."
Dickert replied calmly from behind.
There is a long distance between Fisherman's Crossing and Vineleaf and Lady's Inn. After hearing this, those people couldn't help but look at each other.
"Ha, what did I say?" Only Parker said proudly, "It's probably the non-existent lady. Some people still don't believe it."
Tian Lan was so angry that she kicked him from behind.
The Papalar man got up from the ground in disgrace and said angrily: "What are you doing!"
The little French girl looked up at the sky and replied seriously: "Of course the non-existent lady kicked you."
It caused everyone to laugh lowly.
This episode eased the atmosphere between the two sides. The leader of the other side asked the archers on his side to put down their weapons. Then he came over and stretched out his hand to Fang Plover, showing a smile that he thought was friendly and said: "My name is Hansen.
The leader of this adventure group, the fourteenth-level iron guard, are you here for Dolifen’s three things?”
Only then did Fang Plover have time to look at this person.
The Iron Guard is a second-level title for warriors with more than 200,000 experience. This title will be obtained when you invest more experience in protective skills than offensive skills. This profession is often the backbone of the team, so naturally it cannot be too weak, and this person
Also in line with this standard, he is a middle-aged man in his forties, with a sturdy back and a muscular body, and can even be said to be a little fat. He is wearing an ordinary chainmail suit and is slightly bald.
Fang Yu shook hands with him. It was strong and rough, and he looked weather-beaten. He didn't refute the other party's questions, he just nodded.
"Then I think we can cooperate. You are a combat craftsman, right?" Hansen immediately hit the snake and followed it to the stick. While asking, he kept looking at Fang Plover's fortress-like walker.
"Cooperation?" Fang Plover looked at this guy suspiciously. "What kind of cooperation method?"
"Let me tell you." At this time, a tall man wearing a long cloak came out from behind Hansen and said, "I hired this adventure group. I just came to study Dollifen."
phenomenon, I have no interest in the magic weapon itself."
Fang Yu raised his head and looked at this man. He covered his face with the hood of his cloak and could not see his appearance clearly, but his voice sounded mature and vicissitudes of life, and he did not look too young. Such a person was probably not selected.
By.
But it's not absolute. He might be a tourist. Fang Pultru looked at the man up and down and found that the man did not appear to be wearing magic furnace equipment, so he asked: "Are you a scholar?"
"So," the man replied noncommittally.
"Then what you mean is that we do the task, you help us, and we are responsible for picking up the things after we finish the task?"
"You can say that."
Fang Yu thought for a moment and replied: "I need to discuss it with my companions."
"Excuse me." The man made a gesture to signal Fang Plover to help himself. Fang Plover pulled the others aside and asked if they needed to go through this process. After all, they were not here for any equipment, but also for the Dragon Worshipers.
Just came to this place.
"Of course," the Papalar people replied matter-of-factly: "If we don't get the things and the Dragon Worshipers don't meet them, then wouldn't our trip be in vain? For the Papalar people, it would be a waste of time.
It’s shameful.”
"You are the least qualified to say this." Tian Lan hit him mercilessly.
Ji Ta hesitated and replied: "Brother Ed, we have no other clues at the moment. Generally speaking, Dolifen's three things are the only valuable main line in this abandoned town, and they are also the ones with the highest probability of encountering them.
A possibility, isn’t that what we thought before?”
"That's what I say, but are these people reliable?" Fang Pliong looked at Attila and Sylvide.
"Do you still remember how long we left Elpaxin?" Sylvide asked simply.
"Let me do the math," Parker immediately counted with his fingers. "One, two, three, four, one, two, three, it's almost three days."
"After today, it will be the sixth day." Fang Plover understood what the noble girl meant. On the seventh day, the boat arranged by Princess Brianne for them would arrive at Short Bay, but it was impossible for them to leave Dolifen until then.
In other words, they actually only have one day, but Dolifen's three objects will only appear once in a day.
Etila taught him her experience: "It's normal for adventurers to cooperate on missions, but you can't let your guard down too much."
Fang Plover looked at Dict again.
The older knight seemed a little indifferent. "I am here to investigate the undead tide, so naturally I have to stay here for a while." The implication is to obey the arrangement.
After agreeing on their opinions, Fang Plover found the man, but he did not directly agree to the other party's request, but made his own suggestion. He said that since it was cooperation, for the sake of fairness, the spoils should be distributed based on contribution during the task process.
This proposal made the man glance at him in surprise, but he did not object. On the contrary, the leader of the adventure group, Hansen, seemed quite happy. Since the settlement was based on contribution, no matter how much they did among the three pieces of equipment,
It is undoubtedly a surprise to be able to get one.
Fang Yu paid close attention to the reactions of the two people and realized that there should be no problem. Hansen's performance was within his expectations, and if the other party showed neither happiness nor sadness, then there would be a problem.
After confirming this, he continued to ask: "But I have a question, can you answer me?"
The man glanced at him. Although his expression couldn't be seen clearly, he was probably frowning. His tone was a little impatient and he said lightly: "Generally speaking, I don't answer questions easily, but as a collaborator, you can ask
, If I can answer, I will naturally answer, but if I can't, it will be in vain to ask, because I don't have time to make up some lies."
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, thinking that this person was really loud. He asked: "Mr. Scholar, I heard before that Dolifen was occupied by a group of people. How did you get in here?"
"This question is redundant. How did you get in here? Of course we did too."
"But we didn't see those people, so we were a little confused."
"Doubts are your business. As I said, I will only answer one question: how did you get in here? Naturally, so do we."
Fang Yu could only sigh after hearing what he said. There was nothing wrong with what the other party said. After all, they might not have met those people, and not everyone came in to investigate the Dragon Worship Cult.
However, after he came back, Sylvester told him with a smile that he had used the wrong method. "Wrong method?" Fang Yu was still a little confused.
So the noble girl analyzed it for him. "This person seems to be very alert. You should not ask him about such a person, captain. Such a person is conservative and cautious. Even if the information has little to do with him, he will not easily
Revealing the secret, if you ask him directly, it will only arouse suspicion."
Fang Yu suddenly realized: "You mean I should ask that Hansen."
Sylvide nodded. "Yes, although that person looks smart, he has the disadvantage of being greedy for petty gains. If you give him a little bait, he will not hesitate to betray information that has little to do with him.
"
"Miss Sylvide, it seems to be true. I really didn't think so deeply!" Fang Yu couldn't help but admired, but he suddenly thought of something and couldn't help asking: "Miss Sylvide, you, you wouldn't be like this."
Deal with me?"
The noble girl smiled slightly. "How could it be? I am your team member."
Fang Yu nodded with deep understanding: "I think so, I can't even see it."
Sylvester couldn't help but turned around and covered her mouth, her eyes turning into crescents with a smile.
Of course, Fang Yu didn't notice that much. After agreeing to cooperate with the other party, the two sides joined forces and searched for traces of the 'woman' nearby for a while, but of course they still found nothing.
Parker kept saying that what they saw was the 'non-existent lady', so that everyone nodded. At this time, Hansen proposed to go to the Vineleaf Lady's Hotel, and Fang Yu had no intention of continuing to waste things here.
Then he nodded in agreement.
However, he originally thought that he could start the task directly, but he did not expect that this was not the case.
Hansen told him that the mission had a fixed start time, and usually the brooch would appear at midnight; and throughout the day, Ms. Vineleaf Hotel was no different from other places in the ruins, it was a lifeless place.
Of course, if you have to say there are differences, there are indeed some
When everyone arrived there, Fang Plover noticed this immediately. The hotel was four stories high, with a rock foundation, lobby, and wooden superstructure. It was a common architectural style in the Rainbow Bay area, but here it looked...
Some stand out from the crowd.
It stands out because the hotel looks too "new" among the surrounding ruins.
It is obviously in this abandoned town, on a street overgrown with weeds, but the hotel seems to have been well maintained. Although the exterior wall is a little faded, it does not appear to be in disrepair. There are some ivy leaves on it.
, lush and lush. Against the backdrop of green leaves, every piece of glass in the windows below is very intact, clean and bright, and there are flower beds on the windowsill. If it were anywhere else, there must have been thorns inside, but purple flowers were growing in an orderly manner.
delphinium flowers and orange malachite.
Fang Yu couldn't help but be a little stunned when he saw this place.
Hansen turned around and said to them: "How about it? This is your first time here. I was almost the same as you when I first came here."
"Isn't this your first time here?" Fang Yu couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, Mr. Employer, but it is indeed not our first time here. I have been to this wonderful place several times, and I also got a Blade of False Victory." He pointed at the hotel and said: "It is not just
The outside is like this, and the inside is well maintained. Although it is deserted, it is still a good place to stay even without this quest line. In fact, people discovered this place precisely for this reason. As for how many
Riffen’s three things will all come later.”
