"I know you, your reputation is very loud in Messiah recently. Everyone is talking about you, a genius boy, who can use three weapons at the same time, and can also use combat skills beyond the level. Now in my ears, every day
News about you can be sent to you." The girl named Karina chuckled. Apparently, her ears were almost scratched out by Arthur's name recently.
"Young genius or something, I'm not a genius." Arthur waved his hands repeatedly. Hearing the word genius boy, he couldn't help but get goosebumps on his body.
Arthur doesn't think he is a genius, he is more like a loser. Everything he has now is given by the treasure bag system. If there is no treasure bag, then he will still be the same as before, nothing and nothing.
have.
Because of this, Arthur has never been complacent. He will only work harder, practice skills, and strive to improve his strength faster. Only in this way can he obtain more capital to survive and live better.
in this world.
"There's no need to be modest. If you can't be called a genius, then wouldn't all the so-called geniuses in this world be ashamed to death?" Karina shook her head. Obviously, she felt that Arthur was a little too modest.
head.
"The main purpose of calling you here this time is to explain to you about the previous duel." Seeing that Arthur didn't want to say too much, Karina didn't say anything on the issue of genius.
The conversation changed to the serious matter of visiting Arthur today.
"Okay, I don't have any requirements. I just want to know who is instigating those mercenaries behind the scenes?"
This is very important, and Arthur must ask clearly. After all, if the guy hiding behind the scenes is not revealed, he will have trouble sleeping and eating. The feeling of being targeted is not pleasant.
"Well... I hope you can forget about this and stop asking any more questions." But what surprised Arthur was that Karina knew who the person behind the scenes was, but she refused to say it.
What on earth is going on?
"Don't ask more questions? Don't I even have the power to know who is plotting against me?" Arthur's expression suddenly darkened. If you don't want to tell me, then why did you come to me? It's fun to be so playful.
?
"It's not that you don't have the right to know, it's just..." Karina shook her head and pondered for a while before continuing: "It's just that the person behind the scenes is more powerful than you imagine, and even us are just
We have found the tip of the iceberg, but just like that, the other party has already shown considerable strength. Being hostile will only make you fall into a quagmire and be unable to extricate yourself."
"Now the other party has only sent a count, and the real black hand has not yet appeared. But with such a count, Messiah cannot ignore it."
"Please tell me in detail what is going on!"
Arthur is confused now, what is going on? A count is just a front-end person? So how powerful is the mastermind behind the scenes? He needs to know the whole process of the matter!
"Well, since you want to know..."
Looking at Arthur solemnly, Karina sighed and finally told what happened.
It turned out that just before the duel began, Messiah had received pressure from the Kingdom of Bradrick, and the person who spoke out was a count from the Kingdom of Bradrick!
You must know that although Messiah, the Happy City, is an independent city with legal autonomy, in fact, Messiah is still hanging under the neighboring kingdom Bradrick. Although it is not considered a dependency, it is at least a dependency.
, Bradrick's right to speak to the Messiah is still very important. Once the kingdom puts pressure, even the Messiah cannot ignore it.
Although the earl did not make any excessive demands, he only asked for a duel to determine the outcome, but even so, it attracted the attention of the Messiah.
Why does a seemingly ordinary little dispute attract the attention of a count, and it seems that the other party takes this matter very seriously?
In this way, the Lord of Messiah sent people to investigate, but the results of the investigation surprised everyone.
Although this count has a little power, he is just a puppet who is supported by others! In the Kingdom of Bradrick, he has been acting as a puppet, and the forces behind him are very mysterious. Even if the Messiah City Lord sends the most powerful
Even the elite assassins failed to find out anything about the opponent.
In other words, the opponent's hiding place is too deep. Even the Messiah City Lord cannot ignore this kind of enemy!
Because of this, Karina didn't want Arthur to continue to get deeper into this matter. Since it was over, let's end it for the time being, otherwise, it would not be of any benefit to Arthur.
"I see, I understand." After Karina explained everything, Arthur nodded clearly. It seemed that he had really offended the big shot.
But what’s even more depressing is that until now, I don’t even know who I’ve provoked, which is absolutely depressing.
However, it cannot be denied that Karina is right. With her current strength, she simply cannot continue to delve into this matter. The best result is to pretend that nothing has happened, but this kind of thing is really
Is it possible?
The current situation is that the other party has already found me!
This time the conspiracy can be ignored, but what happens next? If the other party intends to deal with you, I'm afraid you won't be able to guard against it, right?
"I heard that you have been conducting mercenary missions recently, and the completion rate is astonishingly high, right?" Just as Arthur was thinking about it, Karina on the opposite side suddenly raised this question.
"It's not bad, I just make some pocket money anyway." Arthur didn't think much about it, thinking that Karina was just asking casually, but who would have thought that she would have something to say next.
"If that's the case, are you interested in taking on a mission?"
"What mission?"
"Of course it's the mission I issued."
After saying that, Karina took out a bottle of potion, which contained a blue liquid. Although she didn't know what the specific ingredients were, she knew from the crystal clarity of the potion that the cost of this potion was definitely not high.
Philippines.
"This is a mental power-increasing potion that can increase the user's mental power in a short period of time without any side effects. However, the materials for making this potion are relatively rare, so the output of this potion has not been high."
"Now, I hope to be able to make more of this potion, so I need a lot of raw materials. I wonder if you would like to take over my task and look for the materials with me?"
