The Hidden Knight of Mystra Chapter 67: Disguise
Dawn Town.
In a low house in the official area.
Levi came out holding a thick stack of information.
"In theory, the Red Sleeves Brotherhood's intelligence is top secret and we never disclose it to the outside world."
Freya placed her hands on the nanmu table and said in a serious tone:
"But considering your special situation and the fact that you have killed dozens of robbers in a row, we decided to make an exception."
"But you can't take these materials away. You can only read them here. Please understand."
Roger nodded cooperatively.
He immediately opened the file and read it carefully.
I have to say.
The intelligence system of Shuguang Town is quite complete.
Whether it is the information about Jonny Stottle or the information about the Red Sleeves Brotherhood, the summary is very rigorous.
After reading it through, Roger had a general understanding of the Red Sleeves Brotherhood.
Just as Freya said.
This is a group of bandits who rule the mountains.
Their leader came from the sea and was most likely a pirate who had come ashore.
At first, their activities were limited to the area between the East Coast and Knight Avenue.
Gradually, their strength grew.
After completely controlling the area east of Knight Avenue.
Their evil claws gradually extended to other areas and at one point touched the edge of Paramount Manor.
According to the description in the intelligence.
The headquarters of the Red Sleeves Brotherhood is hidden among the mountains in the countryside of Hall, and no one knows its exact location yet.
These robbers are real scum, and murder, arson, rape and looting are commonplace.
Some people have witnessed them performing evil sacrificial rituals in the mountains.
The scene was horrific and bloody.
…
"Thanks."
Gently closing the file, Roger stood up to express his gratitude.
"You're welcome."
Freya put her hand on the hilt of the sword, her expression slightly helpless:
"It is our fault that we allowed the robbers to disturb the peace of the farm."
"It's just that the Lord has been busy dealing with the enemies in the west recently, which gave them an opportunity to take advantage of us."
Roger wondered:
"Enemy to the west?"
Freya nodded and said:
"You should have heard of the name of the Lord of Evil Spirits."
"The necromancers entrenched in the burial ground are Paramount Manor's biggest enemy right now. The Lord has been fighting against them at the northwest border for several days."
I see.
Roger nodded secretly in his heart.
No wonder he had no chance to meet Lord Alan during this period of time.
He then clasped his fists:
"This information is quite useful to me."
"Thank you so much!"
Freya breathed a sigh of relief:
"That's good."
"We will add more patrols."
"But you still have to be careful."
Roger smiled faintly:
"No problem."
Levi said worriedly:
"But didn't you say they were targeting you?"
Roger's right index finger tapped lightly on the nanmu tabletop, with a smile on his face as calm as ever :
"Now, I'm targeting them."
"Oh yeah, Levi."
"Do me a favor."
…
Five days later.
East of Knight Avenue, outside Hall Countryside, a fairly lively gathering place.
Roger crossed a stream of dirty water with brisk steps.
A prompt appeared on the data bar.
…
"You discovered the Capone estate"
…
“We’re finally here.”
Although he was only carrying a crucible, Roger still stretched lazily with some fatigue.
This is a five day hike.
This made him seriously reflect on the ultimate question: "Why didn't I learn horse riding earlier?"
There is a shortage of horses in Tongma Town, so there is no place to learn.
Paramount Manor is a great place to learn horse riding.
However, before he could even start learning horse riding, he encountered several emergencies one after another, so that he still has to rely on his legs to travel long distances.
Nothing else to say.
The efficiency is indeed a bit low.
As for the skill of "taming animals", I can only say that it looks great, but the effect is average in practice.
After being knocked to the ground by a young elk, I felt a dull pain.
He resolutely gave up the idea of taming wild animals as mounts.
However, these five days of walking were not entirely fruitless.
At least he met plenty of Jyunkyoo!
These Jony Turtles obviously have no idea what's going on at Paramount Manor.
When they saw Roger walking on the road, some people even came up to block his way.
Roger was so moved by this behavior that he burst into tears.
In the end, he reluctantly slapped her and accepted her life with tears.
In this way.
The number of Jony Turtles killed by Roger has officially exceeded 1,200.
Even better.
There is also an elite template Jonny Turtle brother among them!
It gave Roger a rather rare feat.
…
"Longevity and Fortune (3rd-level feat): For every year you age, your luck increases by 0.1."
…
Roger pondered for a moment.
This is probably what “the older you get, the luckier you get” means!
…
Roger walked slowly within the territory of "Capone Manor".
This is the only gathering place nearby that has not been destroyed by the Red Sleeves Brotherhood.
Because of the owner of Capone Manor.
He is the third leader of the Red Sleeves Brotherhood.
This place is a mixed bag, with all kinds of people.
The public security is so bad that you could be hit by a club at any time if you walk on the street.
But there are still a large number of people gathered here.
Most of them are poor people who have lost their villages.
Roger's target is a bar called "Tuna and Beauty" in the manor.
Intelligence shows.
That was a semi-public base set up by the Red Sleeves brothers in Capone Manor.
…
night.
In a smoky bar.
The air was filled with the smell of cheap tobacco and pungent alcohol.
The wanton shouts came one after another.
Someone was caught cheating in the back alley, and immediately there was a scream.
There were also naked women who pushed the men away while cursing and rummaging through their pockets; the men lay motionless and lifeless.
Regular customers were doing what they loved to do with indifference.
The bartender was also yawning lazily.
Only occasionally would he come out to chase away those little girls who kept pestering the guests.
In this chaotic atmosphere.
A stranger with a nervous look suddenly pushed the door open.
Someone whistled softly.
Pairs of malicious eyes came over like hyenas smelling blood.
"I'm looking for Old Pete."
The man grabbed his collar and spoke nervously with a trembling voice:
"I know the rules. Give me a glass of the cheapest wine."
The bartender couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, quickly handed him a glass of water mixed with some alcohol, and pointed to the innermost box and said:
"That's old Pete."
"Young man, here's a piece of advice. If you don't come up with something good, you're dead tonight."
The young man shuddered again and lowered his head to drink the wine.
Then, he carefully walked through the crowd and approached the box.
"I have something to sell."
He suddenly spoke loudly.
He seemed too nervous and a little out of control.
There was a man and a woman sitting in the box.
The man was about fifty years old, with a horse face, a hooked nose, prominent cheekbones, and a look that was not to be trifled with.
The woman is very beautiful, but she wears heavy makeup.
When the stranger shouted towards the box, she still had most of her upper body exposed.
"Do you think I'm deaf?"
Old Pete pushed the woman sitting on him away and dragged her into the box.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry!”
The stranger was so frightened that he almost cried.
"What the hell is that?"
Old Pete cursed.
"It's a treasure I found in the old house."
The man hesitated and pulled open a corner of his clothes.
It was a dark statue.
The monster on the statue is lifelike and exquisite, like the work of a master craftsman .
Old Pete's pupils shrank slightly.
"Gargoyle?"
"Let me see."
He grabbed the statue without hesitation and examined it carefully.
The stranger stood timidly at the foot of the wall, staring at Old Pete.
The latter looked up and gave the woman a look.
The woman snorted softly.
Then he slowly walked to the stranger's side, put his arm on his shoulder, and said with a sweet breath:
"take it easy."
“We are doing a serious business.”
"If it's a truly good thing, I'll give you a cent that you deserve."
She pulled the stranger and slowly sat down.
"I'll go get an expert to identify it."
"Wait for me here."
Old Pete suddenly said this, then left the box holding the statue.
"But my..."
The stranger was stopped by the woman before he could finish his words.
With a bang.
The box door was closed.
The woman smiled seductively and wrapped herself around the stranger like an octopus.
From a perspective no one notices.
The faint light of a blade could be seen through the gaps between her nails.
The woman was about to make trouble.
At this moment.
The sudden severe pain directly pierced her brain nerves!
The woman's mouth suddenly opened.
I can't even breathe!
…
Pingsha martial arts!
Knee strike!
Next second.
Roger covered her mouth with his left hand.
A green light flashed in the palm of his right hand, and the Qingxie Sword came out, ruthlessly stabbing the woman through!
…
"You killed Vicky (Human Assassin/Elite)"
"You gained 30 XP"
"You have gained 26 chivalry points."
"Getting the reward for the killing order..."
"You have acquired Vicky's expertise - the art of disguise."
…
