The knight in the abyss

Chapter 339 Deception

The three of them returned to the noisy hall, and after paying a price of ninety gold coins, they finally tasted good wine—high-end products from Shendiraville.Thirty gold coins for a cup is an unbelievable price on the main material plane, but it is nothing in the abyss, but these labor-intensive products are extremely precious.

They sat there for a while longer and heard a lot of interesting news.For example, the mercenaries seem to feel that the demon side has a greater chance of winning in the upcoming war, but they are not excited about it.It's not that these lunatics have sympathy for those good forces (they don't), but they are worried that once the demon side wins a decisive victory, their group of mercenaries will be useless.

Under the reminder of Axiian, Lancelot also paid close attention to the news of the drow being hunted down by the family.His name is Camone, he used to be a frequent visitor here, he has completed many difficult commissions, and he is a top assassin.But he never cooperates with other people and always walks alone, so no one knows where he is hiding at the moment.

The mercenaries have already placed a bet on whether the lone wolf killer can survive in the hands of those compatriots who know him well.Judging from the handicap, less than [-]% of the people are optimistic about this drow elf-the danger of killers comes from their unknown nature, you don't know who is coming to kill you, when and in what way To launch an attack, which allows the killer to always find an opening.

But this drow hunting team came from Camone's former family. They were very aware of the killer's past and were well prepared.And the targeted killer is also the prey, it is difficult to find any waves under the siege of the hunter, not to mention the high-ranking priest of Rose who is said to be in the hunting team, even for those who hate the dark elves, it is difficult Deny the power of the Spider Queen (or Queen).

Although he didn't ask, Axiian silently confirmed to Lancelot with his eyes that this Kamon was the spy they hadn't waited for.But Lancelow had to accept the fact that he couldn't get any useful information here, because everyone was looking for this dark elf.

As time went on, the taste of this club started to get worse and worse.Many mercenaries are intensely paranoid, and they refuse to take off their armor, so they are insulated from activities such as bathing.But the alcohol will make the body start to sweat and emit a strong stench, and at the same time make the nerves of the mercenaries more sensitive and impulsive.

A few jealous mercenaries started taunting each other over a scantily clad succubus, while everyone else seemed to be expecting an orgy of brawling.The three of them didn't want to get involved in a bar fight again, and it would be difficult to gain anything else if they stayed any longer, so they got up decisively and left through the passage they had come in before.

"What should we do now?" Back on the open street again, Brutal asked impatiently, "Should we go back first, or go directly to that so-called Camone?"

"Axian, what do you think?" Lancelow asked another member of the team for his opinion, "Do you think he is likely to be exposed?"

"What I was worried about at first was whether something happened to him, but now it seems that there is no accident. Although I am very worried about my dark elf friend, I believe in his ability." The elf prince shook his head, "He It is not so easy to be found, but it is not appropriate for us to rush to find him, which may put us all in danger."

"I see." Lancelot nodded, "Let's go back first."

Although everyone is not familiar enough with the city, it is not difficult to get back to the hotel where they stayed, just go in the direction of the central square.

After walking through a few street corners, Lancelow's expression suddenly changed.He didn't stop his steps, but he said to Brutal and Aksian with the secret technique of sound transmission:

"Stay vigilant, there are situations."

The impatient Brutal stumbled when he heard the words, and was about to ask, but found that his mouth was just opening and closing silently without making any sound.

"Shut up, keep walking." Lancelot's voice sounded in the dwarf's ear again, "I know what you want to ask, those people are jumping on the eaves...don't look up! They don't know they've been discovered yet, But it shouldn't be coming for us."

Lancelot spoke to Brutal and Axian at the same time, and the two had recovered from their initial panic.They nodded slightly to express their understanding, then lifted their chins slightly without leaving any traces, and at the same time tried to turn their eyeballs to look up.

It was a moonless night, and dim light leaked from the narrow windows of those spooky towers, illuminating the sordid streets weakly.Fortunately, all three of them had excellent dark vision, so they quickly spotted the fast-moving figure not far above.

Despite the distance of more than fifty feet, everyone recognized each other's identity from the flowing silver hair: a group of drow.Axion had been posing as a drow until now, but beyond appearance his movements were a poor imitation of these distant kin.

These real dark elves ran and jumped silently on the eaves, as swift as a group of spiders, and at the same time exuded the unique agility of a hunter.As Lancelow judged, the target of these drows was indeed not the three of them, and something rather urgent was calling them.

"It doesn't seem to concern us," said Brutal, as loudly as the dwarf's throat would allow. "Let's go our way, shall we let them?"

Lancelot frowned. The figures of these dark elves once again aroused his sense of familiarity. Is it because of Axian?No, it's not him, it's another person, who the hell...

A flash of light suddenly flashed in Lancelow's mind, it was the hobgoblin intelligence dealer!At that time, he felt that the figure of the hobgoblin had an inexplicable sense of familiarity, which actually came from Axion's poor imitation of the drow's gait, but because the latter's imitation was too far away, it was not until he saw the real one. It was the drow and Lancelot who connected the two together.

"Axian, does that Kamon know your camouflage skills?"

"Ah?" The elf ranger was stunned, "He taught me this kind of skill..."

"Fuck!" Lancelot swears in a rare way, "That hobgoblin intelligence dealer is disguised by Camone, and we were deceived by him!"

"What?" Axian exclaimed, "But why... did he hide it from us?"

"Go and ask him yourself." Lancelot suddenly quickened his pace, and there was the faint sound of weapons clashing in the wind, "I hope he can live to answer your questions."
