Volume 1: Raging Waves City Chapter 15: Kill but not bury
Luke teleported to Botu Square via the virtual teleportation anchor and walked along the rooftops to Beacon Street.
Find the Assassin's Bar and jump down.
Evil Eye Tess acted quickly. The bodies of the Chick brothers had been taken away, and the traces of fighting on the ground had also been simply cleaned up.
Professionals are professionals.
After knocking on the tavern door a few times, the small window on the door opened, revealing Tess's yellow eyes.
Before Luke could say the codeword, the door opened.
"Ms. Qingkong, you're back so soon? The Mad Axe Party headquarters is a castle that is not easy to enter. The giant tree itself is very powerful and is protected by so many subordinates.
You don't need to be discouraged if you can't find an opportunity to attack.
Come in and have a drink, and I can have Lizard Billy give you some free info on the Axe and the Big Tree."
Luke walked past Tas and flicked a silver note between his fingers.
"Tais, you talk too much nonsense!"
Tess extended his tentacles and quickly took the silver certificate.
"Thank you for your generosity Miss , and have a wonderful evening."
The elf who walked into the tavern once again attracted the attention of all the guests, and some of them couldn't help but take out their pocket watches to check the time.
In such a short time, it wouldn't be enough to run at full speed to the Axe headquarters and back.
Lizardman Billy put a glass of wine in front of Luke: "Your ability to kill the Chick brothers proves your strength, but the giant tree is not as stupid as the Chick brothers, otherwise the Axe Mad Party would not have the power it has now.
I have sorted out all the property of the Chick brothers for you...it's all here."
Billy pulled a bag from under the counter and placed it on the bar.
Then he saw the elf put a human head in front of him.
It turned out to be... it was the head of a giant tree with ox-horned demons!
That’s right, it’s the giant tree’s head. His pair of horns are so distinctive.
"You, you really killed the giant tree?"
How is this possible?
In such a short time, it's already great that you can run to the Axe Madness headquarters and back, and you even killed the giant tree!
Is he standing at the door of the Axe headquarters, waiting for you to chop off his head?
The giant tree's head caused a commotion in the tavern.
No one wanted to believe that the elves could kill the giant tree in such a short time, but the giant tree's head was right there.
Everyone here is an assassin or someone related to an assassin, and they know how to tell the authenticity of a head.
He is the giant tree.
The Bull-Horned Devil who founded the Mad Axe Party.
Luke pushed his hair out of his eyes, took a sip of the wine on the table, and then unzipped his bag.
There is some money and useful tools and weapons inside.
Without the things in the warehouse, these things are what I urgently need.
Luke closed the bag and said to Lizardman Billy, "Is this the head of a giant tree? You should be able to identify it. You can also send someone to the Mad Axe headquarters to investigate.
I only care about the bounty."
Lizardman Billy took out a wooden box from under the counter and put the giant tree's head in it. However, the giant tree's horns were too big, and Billy couldn't close the wooden box after adjusting it in several directions, so he had to put the head away for the time being.
Then he said to Luke with a little embarrassment: "Ms. Clear Sky, this is indeed the head of the giant tree. You were able to kill the giant tree so quickly, which surprised all of us here.
It is an honor for us at the Cape District Assassin's Tavern to host such a powerful assassin like you.
As for the bounty for the giant tree... it's too much, and there's not that much cash in the tavern right now. If you're willing to wait until tomorrow, you can take 5,000 gold tickets from me."
In the Anno game, you can get rewards immediately after completing tasks.
But now it is a little different from the game after all, and 5,000 gold coupons is indeed a huge sum of money.
One gold voucher was considered a huge sum of money, equivalent to 5,000 Reichsmarks.
"Sure, you can get the bounty tomorrow." Luke said, "Please exchange 2,000 gold certificates for silver certificates, and 100 gold certificates for Imperial Marks."
“No problem, Miss Qingkong, I will exchange some of the gold coupons for change that is easy to spend.
Is there anything else I can do for you?"
Luke took out a few Reichsmarks and placed them on the table.
"I'll buy everyone here a drink."
Lizardman Billy took the money and said, "Thank you, Miss Clear Sky."
The people in the pub raised their glasses and shouted, "Thank you, Miss Qingkong. It's our honor to meet you."
Luke drank the rest of the wine in the glass in one gulp, then picked up his bag and walked out.
"I'll come get the money tomorrow night. Bye."
Billy saluted and said, "Goodbye!"
Luke left the Assassin's Tavern and returned to the clock tower near Shelley's house through the virtual teleportation anchor point.
First, take out some money and put it in the corner of the bell tower, and find a stone to press it on.
Then look at the window on the second floor of the Shelley house.
What a wonderful evening.
Offline, charging...
Qingkong's figure disappeared on the clock tower, and Luke, who was lying in the room, opened his eyes.
The mobile phone in the consciousness enters the charging state.
He did not feel any discomfort from controlling Qingkong to run back and forth in the cape area, and he even felt quite energetic after taking a nap.
Now the "Heart of Red Dragon Nierkron" is in Qingkong's backpack. Check the summoning process of Red Dragon Nierkron...
A wind lamp burning fin whale blubber is needed.
A 120cm×120cm piece of drawing paper made of alfalfa, oil paint made of lantern nectar and stone slip, and a formation painting brush.
Five crystals, ten bloodstones, one kilogram of sulfur, and the corpse of an adult male red bat.
These things are not easy to get in the Cape area in a short time.
However, in the mysterious shop in the central city of Rage City, you should be able to buy all the materials for summoning the red dragon Neilcolon at once.
Anyway, I have to go to the Assassin's Tavern to collect the bounty tomorrow, so it's a good opportunity to get the money and go to the central city.
Also prepare the materials needed for the secret ritual.
Now, sleep!
Luke fell into a deep sleep again, completely unaware of the state the entire Cape area had become after all the killing she had done.
A vicious murder occurred at the warehouse at the Windward Lane dock, killing seventeen people including the warehouse boss Ron.
After receiving the alarm, the Cape District Security Bureau immediately dispatched a sheriff to the scene. The seventeen dead bodies were still standing in front of the entrance of the storage area in the form of ice sculptures.
Witnesses said the murderer was a female elf who called herself Qingkong.
She said that something was with Ron, and after tricking Ron out, she suddenly killed him.
The murder scene in Windward Alley had not yet been cordoned off, and another invasion occurred at the Axe headquarters.
There is news from an insider.
More than a hundred people died, including the leader of the Mad Axe Gang, the Bull-Horned Demon Giant, and several core members of the Mad Wind Gang.
The murderer is a female elf who has the ability to create a large ice field.
She calls herself Qingkong...
Clear sky!
Another female elf named Qingkong appeared on the ice rink again.
The murderer of both massacres was the same person.
First it was the warehouse at the Windward Lane dock, and then the Axe Mad Party which had huge interests at the dock .
What is her purpose?
Moreover, the death of the giant tree has severely damaged the Mad Axe Party, and the interests it has vacated will inevitably cause competition among various forces.
The Cape area, which is already in chaos, will become even more chaotic starting tomorrow.
The sheriffs of the Cape District Security Office are all more troubled than the others.
