Aubrey went out with a letter from home, wondering how he could bring the letter to Nefarian and then leave safely. Because his son was missing, Nefarian believed that his enemies were retaliating, and the weapons store as a stronghold was very tightly guarded.
He couldn't get close easily. If he was accidentally discovered by them and a letter was found on his body, it would be strange not to paralyze his lower body.
The clever thief quickly thought of a way and found a post office to carry out delivery services. He had to think carefully about dangerous things and covered his face with a cloak before going in. He filled in the address and added an extra fifty copper cents to ensure express delivery within the city. It would be delivered to the location on the same day.
, make sure that the letter is not lost by a careless postman.
Shen Zhimo made his last move. Viper's Fang has an enemy, the "Crystal Glory" mercenary group in the same industry. Both groups have strong strength and compete fiercely with each other. The backstage boss of "Crystal Glory" is the finance minister under the Prime Minister.
Minister, with his unparalleled financial resources, he has attracted countless masters and has become the first mercenary group in Elida City. The Viper's Fang ranks second. Neither of them obeys the other. You deliberately lower the business price. I will snatch your hands.
The target was fiercely fought overtly and covertly. Over time, Nefarian would become itchy with hatred even when he saw the crystal.
In the afternoon of the same day, the unattractive pharmacist and magic apprentice appeared at the Shade Hotel in the south of the city. They ordered a glass or two of rum and started talking, starting with trivial matters. There were many such boring guests in the hotel.
No one paid attention. Finally, Troy slowly talked about a case in the city that had not been exposed yet, "Ahem! Did you know that the son of Nefarian, the leader of the Viper Fangs, was kidnapped?" "What? Who?
Did you do it?" "I don't know, I just heard about it, but it's a long story..."
Morey immediately pretended to be more interested, poured him a glass of wine, and asked: "Let me analyze it quickly."
"Well, you also know that the feud between the two mercenary groups of Viper's Fang and Crystal Glory is not a matter of a day or two. Recently, Nefarian has poached several capable swordsmen from his opponent. Can the opponent
Are you angry? I suspect that his son is most likely in the hands of Crystal Glory, and I heard he plans to ask for 10,000 silver dollars!"
Morey exclaimed: "Wow! So much! I can't save that much money even after working for thirty years!"
Some of the guests around him didn't care, but those who knew Viper Fang took it seriously, thinking to themselves that this was a big inside story, and they should brag about their extensive knowledge to their friends when they got back.
Seeing that their goal was achieved, Morey and his wife hurriedly paid the bill and walked to another hotel to continue their plan of spreading rumors.
Everyone is a potential disseminator of gossip. They pass what they hear to relatives and friends as anecdotes, and friends pass it on to friends. In less than an afternoon, the rumors have reached the point where they are widely known. Shen Zhimo even
You can also hear the guests talking at the Golden Rose.
"Let them be suspicious." Shen Zhimo said, and the next afternoon, several of them were already prepared accordingly.
Aubrey, who had just pretended to be a passerby from Garden Avenue, returned and reported to Shen Zhimo: "Last night, Nefarian took people to find the Crystal Glory Theory. There was almost bloodshed between the two parties. After some entanglement, they clarified each other and found out that it was just a theory.
Misunderstanding, I believe Nefarian is going crazy."
Shen Zhimo laughed loudly: "Let them make trouble, then there will be no energy to track down the real culprit who kidnapped my son."
Herbert gritted his teeth and said, "You will regret it. I will ask my father to chop you all into pieces when I go back."
Aubrey said: "I just came all the way from the Garden Avenue. It was full of their hidden sentries and the inspection was very strict. Around the third garbage bin, there were at least thirty assassination masters, some hiding in the trees, and some
They pretended to sell kebabs nearby, and some disguised themselves as cleaners, waiting for us to show up. Every passerby became their target of suspicion, and I was followed for a long time, and finally got rid of it in a jewelry store. I guess that Nai
Farian is also hiding not far away to observe, there will definitely be danger if we go there."
Shen Zhimo smiled and said: "He thinks of us too simply. Pack up your weapons and have a full meal first, and we will start taking action when it gets dark."
The sun soon set in the west. Shen Zhimo tied up Herbert, put a ball of cloth in his mouth, blindfolded his eyes, and handed it to Troy. He ordered: "It turns out that everyone knows how to do what I was told? Simon, you are in charge.
Big picture. Troy, you hire a carriage and I will take him with you to the fountain in the central garden."
Herbert has been imprisoned in a dark cellar these days. Shen Zhimo and others have a very strict reputation. He has no way of knowing where he is being imprisoned. He is blindfolded and dragged to a far away place by a carriage, so he will never know that he has been there.
What place is.
…
The street lights were gradually lit up. Nefarian and a few loyal men were hiding on the second floor of the hotel opposite the Garden Avenue. The view here was wide and they could survey the entire Garden Avenue. They could also hide in the room and draw the curtains.
He left a gap so that others would not see him. He was a middle-aged man with a stern face, tall and thin, with two thick mustaches on his upper lip. He was wearing a gray mage robe with curved swirling stripes on the edge.
The usual ice magic gently circulated around him, preventing him from being tortured by the heat like others.
Nefarian held his son's handwritten letter and read it again. He didn't know what to feel in his heart, and said: "That idiot always gets into trouble. I don't know if it was framed by my enemy, or if he really owed huge gambling debts and was controlled by others.
Get up. Anyway, if I catch that bastard, I will cut him into pieces."
A subordinate reminded: "Mr. Leader, the moon has risen."
Nefarian looked at the ten bulging money bags in the room, feeling quite uncomfortable, and said, "Take the money out and put it in the third trash can."
Each silver coin minted and issued by the empire has a standard weight of six grams and a silver content of about 75%. It has a statue of the Holy Light cast on it. Due to its weight, moderate proportion, beautiful shape, and convenience to hold in the hand, it is deeply loved.
Businessmen loved it, and over time it replaced the currencies of other countries and became the hard currency of the entire continent.
One thousand silver coins is equivalent to six kilograms, and ten thousand silver coins is equivalent to sixty kilograms. Let's see how the gangster escapes after taking the money.
Ten thousand silver dollars is an astronomical amount of money, and the mercenary group does not originally have that much cash. Nefarian is concerned about his son's safety, and is afraid that he will really see a finger tomorrow and use his status as leader to find someone.
It was accumulated by wealthy men. He has been in the forefront of the crisis for many years and is never afraid of danger. He just wants to set a trap to catch the murderer and get his son back with the money. At best, he will waste some energy and will not lose anything.
Picking up the monocular made of white transparent crystal, Nefarian felt disgusted again. If he had been more diligent in learning the eagle eye technique at the Arcane Academy, he wouldn't have had to deal with this disgusting thing. A ghost appeared in the lens.
The sneaky man, wearing a hat that covered half of his face, looked back and forth nervously. He didn't find the hidden whistle of the Viper's Fang, so he quickly walked towards the trash can.
When the man was about to get close to the trash can, four or five strong men jumped out and pushed him to the ground.
