Chapter 22 The Stranger’s Killer Group

Herbie opened the skylight to speak frankly, so Blazer naturally didn't have to go around and around, but he didn't expect that the skylight was a bit wide.

"The killer group [Azazel] composed of strangers is targeting her."

Herbie leaned on the wheel of the carriage, which was taller than himself, and tapped the carriage with his slender fingers. Across the curtain, a figure wearing a lady's hat stood straight, unmoved by what was happening outside.

"We are still finding out who hired [Azazel], but we know their purpose."

Herbie's expression was like a cobra whose tail had been stepped on, roaring lowly and raising its body ready to spray venom.

"Appearance quota at [Epidaurus Theater]."

"Really?" Blazer's reaction was relatively dull, and he even didn't understand it, but after Herbie explained it, he understood.

The Theater of Epidaurus is one of the highest performance stages. Tickets have to be competed for, and the opportunity to perform on stage naturally has to be competed for. If it is simply better than the artistic level, but the scale is as large as the Epidaurus Theater, then there are overt and covert struggles between countless forces behind it.

Many of them have used dirty tricks to directly eliminate their competitors.

"We [Hermes' Brigade Hat] have invested a lot of money in the Epidaurus Theater, so naturally we have the quota to play. Of course, we will also pay attention to hiding their names before the Epidaurus Theater opens. identity."

"I don't know why, but the quota was leaked. I understand." Blazer crossed his arms and nodded.

He also understood the reason for not hiring strangers. Strangers had a very mature method of communication. And the killer group named [Azazel] is one of the largest group guilds among the strangers, with many eyes and ears.

If someone really hired [Azazel], as long as a little bit of news is leaked, the pursuit will ensue.

"Also, what I just said is not entirely a lie. My status in [Hermes' Brigade Hat] is indeed unstable recently." Herbie followed Blaze's example and crossed his arms, looking up and sighing. road.

"I spent too much money to kick other opponents out of office, and as a result, the capital turnover was unable to come back. The other senior partners went to work as bounty hunters or adventurers to make money to maintain the daily expenses of [Hermes' Traveling Cap], but I could only Drink some scented tea and buy some clothes."

"Then you're not bringing it upon yourself now."

"Ah haha... That's right, the blessed ones who are not strangers are too expensive to afford." Herbie scratched the back of his head and said haha, but he bowed his head honestly after realizing that Blaze was not appreciative at all.

"I understand, I will help escort you, but my limited strength cannot guarantee that I can safely escort you to the Epidaurus Theater."

The first murderer he defeated, the old stranger Big, was a member of [Azazel], the blessed one of LV85. The first time I was able to win was because the opponent was careless and was hit by him and triggered [Fatal Execution]. The second time I was able to win was because the opponent had just been resurrected and his attributes were halved, and the armor on his body was gone.

If it was a serious 1 on 1, or even a sneak attack, then he would only be killed instantly. Although I'm sorry to say this, in that situation, he can only prioritize self-protection.

"No, our destination is Balkan City."

"That's the other way around."

"That's right, because Audrey..." Hebie smiled bitterly, "She has given up performing at the Epidaurus Theater. I want to send her to a place protected by the Royal Knights."

"Really? What a pity." Blazer looked at the woman behind the curtain. The Epidaurus Theater is known as the highest art stage. This person once paid an unknown amount of money just to be able to sing in that place. I worked hard, but now I gave up on my own initiative.

"And... targeting Balkan City just fulfills your wish, doesn't it?" Herbie suddenly leaned over and returned to his previous sinister smile.

Blaze's expression tightened, almost thinking that Herbie had seen through his identity.

"You have the profession of a great swordsman, but you didn't use the rumored twisted great sword just now, but picked up an unsuitable soldier's sword... You need a new great sword or find someone to repair it. Your weapon."

He deserves to be called the senior partner of [Hermes' Brigade Hat], and he can see the needs of his partner at a glance.

"The nearest weapons store here is in Balkan City, and you can't enter Balkan City like this, let alone trade with those old stubborns in the weapons store. But if I arrange it, this won't be a problem."

"It seems to me that you are simply bragging about secretly transporting dangerous elements into the city if there is any benefit."

Blaze sighed helplessly, agreeing to accept Herbie's escort commission. He felt that he was being plotted by the other party.

During the break in the transaction, the guards repaired the tires of the carriage transporting the goods and moved the scattered goods back to the carriage. The goods that had been damaged in the goblin attack were left on the spot. In the process, Blaze took a look at the goods.

Most of them are handicrafts with only collection value.

"There is usually more than one Goblin reconnaissance force. Let's get on the road as soon as possible." Herbie exchanged a few words with the guard captain and then sat back in the carriage. When he opened the door, Blaze glanced inside. The beautiful singer Jia has always maintained an upright sitting posture, like a doll.

The guard captain had no objection to handing over command to Blaze, and was even relieved. He was vaguely aware that this job was not easy, but the pay was very generous, so he deliberately did not think about it.

The caravan started moving again, much faster because it lost a lot of goods.

Blaze walked beside the carriage, and his current foot strength could easily keep up with the speed of the carriage. Herbie opened the curtain of the carriage, put his arm on the window frame, and talked to Blazer leisurely.

"Everyone says you are a lost knight, so where is your hometown?"

"Can you eat in this armor?"

"How on earth did you lift the curse? Did someone splash you with the saint's holy water?"

"What are your plans in the future? Have you considered long-term cooperation with me? I can send you to any place."

Probably because he knew that Blaze knew what kind of person she was, Herbie made no attempt to conceal her thoughts. She dug up information, tested, and recruited, without ever pulling her down.

Unfortunately, Blazer himself wanted to know most of Herbie's questions, so he remained silent, but this reflected in Herbie's eyes that Blazer had no interest in her recruitment.

"I said, don't you have anything you want?"

"Elves."

"Ahem! We are serious businessmen and we do not engage in the slave trade."
