Chapter 723 Visitors from Multiscale City

It has been more than half a month since Herodotus was assassinated, but the multi-scale city has not calmed down, but has become more and more chaotic.

Because the Raimundi family, which has been ruling here for a long time, has been wiped out by the Blood Moon Society.

As a result, the city lost its legal master, and many forces began to move around.

This includes some noble families in the city, the remnants of the Blood Moon Society, and the defeated army left by Gwen.

The latter was defeated and incorporated by Herodotus not long ago, and was originally at the bottom of the power.

However, the death of Herodotus made them suddenly become popular. No matter how ugly they fought in the previous battle, after all, there are still nearly 4000 people.

Among them, 1000 people followed Ilkander and left, and the remaining 3000 people are still the largest armed force in the multi-scale city, and now they have become the targets of other forces.

In order to survive, these soldiers had to betray the Figueirola family and join the Blood Moon Society, but now they can no longer return to their hometown.

They can only stay in the multi-scale city, and they can live happily every day. In addition, there is no one to restrain them, which makes their military discipline very bad.

They are at least half responsible for the current chaos in Multiscale City.

During this period of time, many residents have fled out one after another, but some people did the opposite and chose to enter the city at this time.

The man was wearing a cloak, riding an old horse that had lost its hair, and had a long sword on his waist. He was dressed like a typical mercenary.

The guards guarding the city stopped him, and one of them yelled at him, "Hey, that sneaky guy over there, get off your horse for inspection, we suspect you are a spy of the Figuerola family."

Hearing this, the uninvited guest took off his hood, revealing a pair of golden pupils underneath.

"I'm not a spy, I'm just an ordinary mercenary, entrusted by my employer, to go to the city to find his brother."

"Hehe, that's a good excuse. If I were a spy of the Figuerola family, I would say the same thing." Another guard sneered.

The mercenary was a little helpless, "How can you believe my words?"

"Give us a gold coin and we'll trust you."

"........."

The mercenaries understood that these guards only wanted to make money, and they didn't care at all whether there were spies from the Figuerola family sneaking into the city.

The entry fee for a gold coin was ridiculously high, but it was nothing compared to what he had to do.

Besides, Prophet Merlin gave him a hundred golden lions as funding for the event before departure, and he is not short of money now.

But he still had the patience to bargain with the guards, because the mercenaries were well aware of the greed of these guards. If they agreed too quickly, these guys would probably go back on their word immediately, sit on the ground and increase the price, and hit another hard sum.

It is not even impossible to kill people directly.

In the end, the mercenary spent four silver coins, successfully got rid of his identity as a spy, and entered Multiscale City.

Looking at the familiar streets and buildings around, the mercenary breathed a sigh of relief. He had been away for more than a year, and he thought he would never come back.

But now is not the time to think about the past, he has business to do, and those memories are not very pleasant.

The mercenary came to a boot shop according to his memory.

It was just past noon, but the shop was already closed.

The mercenary knocked on the door, but no one answered.

However, there was no way to do this. During his journey, there were not many shops that were open, and most of them were closed.

And even so, someone would smash it open and loot the inside.

So the mercenary could only turn to another street, and he went straight to the hotel on the corner, but it was also closed there.

The mercenary frowned even deeper.

At this moment, a voice came from behind him, "Big man, are you looking for a place to live?"

The mercenary turned his head and saw a young girl.

About sixteen or seventeen years old, with a dry body, but a pair of eyes are very lively.

"Don't look, the hotels in the city are basically closed, but I can help you find a place where you can spend the night. It is safe enough and there is food. Of course, you have to pay a little price, as long as three silver coins..."

Before the girl finished speaking, the big mercenary looked away again, and turned to continue studying the inn in front of him that had been closed long ago.

"I'm not extorting you. As you can see, the shops in the city are closed now, and the food is not easy to find. The price is very fair."

"Where are your parents?" The mercenary didn't answer, but asked instead, "They just let you run around in the street, aren't you afraid that you will be captured by bad guys?"

"My parents are gone." The girl said sadly, "It's just me and my younger brother who depend on each other. I have to find a way to support my family. I grew up in this area and I am very familiar with this street. Bad guy, I will run away early."

"Are you familiar with this area?" The mercenary asked, "Then do you know where the owner of this hotel has gone?"

"He's dead too." The girl said, "And he's been dead for a long time. Before the Raimundi family captured the spies of the Blood Moon Society, he was among them. That night, the guards rushed into his shop and took him away. Gone, and we haven't seen him since."

The mercenary had a headache, he didn't expect this secret stronghold to be destroyed so early.

Then there is only one place left that he hasn't found yet, but the mercenary feels that there is not much hope there.

The girl seemed to have noticed something at this time, and tentatively asked, "Aren't you looking for a place to live, but someone, who are you from Uncle Dorossel?"

"Just ordinary friends." The mercenary said, he took out four silver coins from the purse and threw them to the girl, "But I really need a place to stay, so take me there first."

"Okay." The girl took the money, very happy, and immediately led the way.

The mercenary followed her to an empty shop, which seemed to have been looted before, and everything that could be moved was emptied.

There was only a pile of worthless rubbish left. The girl walked up to the rubbish and said to the mercenary, "Come and help me."

The latter heard the words and walked over to help her remove the broken wooden board above, revealing an entrance.

"I don't want to sleep underground." The mercenary frowned.

"It's not underground, it's just a passage that leads to the courtyard behind. We sealed the courtyard door and used this road to get in and out so that no one can find us."

"Then you are pretty smart." The mercenary said.

"There's no way, the city is too chaotic now, if we don't do this, we won't be able to survive now."

"But now that I know your secret, aren't you afraid that I will kill everyone inside?" the mercenary said calmly.

"You won't, I'm a good judge of people." The girl's eyes were shining, "Big man, you can tell he's a good person."
