Chapter 46: Another Extraordinary Gathering

It was almost evening when Roman arrived in the Backlund Bridge area. He came to Iron Gate Street with a familiar routine and saw the familiar black door of the "Brave Bar" and the sturdy bodyguard at the door.

Why does it seem like there is only one bodyguard...

Roman complained in his mind, said hello to the bodyguard next to him, opened the door and entered the bar.

Since it was already approaching evening, the atmosphere in the bar was far more lively than last time.

I got acquainted with the bartender and bought a glass of Southwell beer, and found out that Kaspars was playing cards in the card room No. 2.

After happily drinking a large glass of cool and delicious Southwell beer, Roman put down his wooden cup and walked into the chess and card room No. 2.

I saw Kaspars looking sad.

Kaspars also saw the conspicuous Roman, put down the cards in his hand, and said, "This one doesn't count, this one doesn't count." After that, he walked towards Roman.

Completely ignoring the noisy protests behind him.

After limping with Roman to an empty room, Kaspars asked with some confusion: "Didn't I say it would be until night? Why did you come so early?"

Roman pinched the knuckles of his hands casually, looked at Caspars, and said, "It's not about the party, it's about the bounty hunter's commission. Something happened."

Kaspars became even more confused when he heard this: "Didn't you accept an exploration commission with Black Dog and the others? Just on the outskirts of Backlund, what could happen?"

Roman let out a sigh in his heart, thinking that you don't know how many potential dangers Backlund has, otherwise you wouldn't have said such a thing.

He said with an expressionless face: "There is something wrong with that manor. There is an ancient ruin under the manor, and there is a terrifying evil spirit. The three black dogs died in the ruins. If I hadn't run fast, I would have returned now.

not coming."

Roman did not choose to tell the truth about how the three black dogs stabbed him in the back, but only emphasized the terror of the evil spirits.

The reason is very simple. If Roman truthfully emphasizes the conflict between himself and the Black Dog trio, it will make Caspars doubt the real cause of death of the Black Dog trio, and even more doubt his own credibility.

After all, three teammates died on the first mission, and these three Caspars were relatively familiar bounty hunters. Of course, a person's first impression is that he would trust his acquaintances more than strangers he had only met once.

.

Arousing Kaspars's suspicion may cause his activities in Backlund to become complicated. After all, Black Dog and the others are still some familiar friends, and there is absolutely no benefit in exposing himself to conflicts with them.

On the contrary, emphasizing the terror of the evil spirit, as he is a victim who narrowly escaped death, and those who were killed were his teammates who were exploring together, which will naturally not arouse so much suspicion.

Sure enough, Caspars' attention was attracted by the evil spirit. He frowned and asked, "Evil spirit? What happened next?"

Roman continued: "That Mr. Peter is a believer of the Goddess of the Night. He then chose to call the police. There should be people from the church to deal with this incident by now."

Everything Roman said was true, and Caspars would definitely understand that because Mr. Peter was a believer in the Goddess of the Night, after calling the police, the Church of the Night sent "Nighthawks" to deal with matters related to evil spirits.

After changing the order of things and telling part of the truth, Kaspars will naturally get the reasoning result he wants.

Kaspers did not ask about the details of the deaths of the three black dogs. After all, they encountered evil spirits, and Roman was lucky to escape. Instead, Kaspers comforted Roman, "The official personnel of the Church of the Night will handle the follow-up.

You should be able to rest assured that the evil spirit will not have any more influence on you. After all, they are professionals in dealing with evil spirits."

Roman nodded. Indeed, there is no doubt about the professionalism of the "Nighthawks" in dealing with ghosts, evil spirits and undead creatures.

"Then do you still want to attend tonight's party? I have helped you contact the people inside and emphasized your credibility." Kaspers asked.

"Of course." Roman nodded and said appropriately: "After experiencing this evil spirit incident, I also need more ways to protect myself. I hope I can gain something from tonight's party."

Caspars sighed with deep understanding and said with Roman: "Come with me. Although it's still a little early, as a newcomer, it's best to go there in advance and prepare."

After saying that, he motioned for Roman to follow him, and Kaspars limped out.

Kaspars took Roman to the kitchen of the bar, and from there he entered a dark alley at the back. After turning a few turns, he arrived in front of a house.

He took out a mask, thought about it, changed it to a larger mask, handed it to Roman, and said, "Put this on to cover your face."

Roman took the black iron mask, looked at it, and after sighing at its ugliness, he put it on his face, covering his entire face, and deliberately ruffled his hair.

It's a pity that Roman's body type can't be better disguised.

Seeing that Roman was ready, Kaspars knocked on the door rhythmically.

After a few seconds, a small wooden board on the door was pulled open, revealing brown eyes behind it.

After examining Caspars and Roman, the door slowly opened.

A man wearing an iron mask stood there and said to Roman in a hoarse accent: "You were the first one to come."

With that said, he handed Roman a black robe with a hood, motioned for Roman to put it on and follow him, then closed the door and walked into the house.

Roman followed him through the dark living room and entered the living room on the first floor.

Thick curtains were drawn in the living room, and a coffee table was placed in the middle. A candle was lit on the coffee table, and the dim light illuminated the room.

There are some sofas and seats around the coffee table. Since it was still early, all seats were empty.

Roman found a chair in the corner and sat down, waiting for the arrival of the Beyonders attending the party.

After counting his net worth, Roman found that thanks to the generosity of his employer, Mr. Maxi Wade, Roman had not spent much money recently. He carried more than a thousand pounds in cash, and could sell some knowledge or original works depending on the situation.

I have found those magic potion formulas that I remember deeply, and I look forward to harvesting them tonight.

Although Roman carries several powerful extraordinary items with him, he still has transaction needs, such as extraordinary weapons, materials, spells, potions, etc., especially potions. After all, Philogen is only a doctor, not a more professional pharmacist.

Of course, if the magic potion formula that his teammates need to advance appears at the party, Roman will help them buy it. As for Roman's own formula, not to mention that Roman has already obtained the subsequent formulas up to Sequence 5 from the evil spirit.

, we just need to find a way to verify the authenticity.

Even if he didn't obtain those unknown authentic and fake formulas, Roman didn't think that the level of this party was high enough for Sequence 6 or Sequence 5 formula-level transactions.

While Roman was thinking and looking forward to today's party, participants wearing masks, cloaks and robes gradually entered the room, filling the sofas and seats around the coffee table.
