Mithril Throne of Forgotten Realms

Chapter 272 "Trap"

Fang Yi patted the shoulder of the dwarf warrior beside him, signaling him to calm down, then looked back at the mocking crowd behind him, and did not make a sound.

"Could you explain it to us in detail? After all, we just came here," Fang Yi asked with a smile while propping his arms on the wooden table, "You mean, people who come to the Rat's Nest want to see the squirrel?"

Seeing a few shining gold coins that Fang Yi secretly stuffed over, the tavern owner put his hands under the table calmly, then cleared his throat, and put his big head in front of the four of them.

"Otherwise, what do you think this place is for?"

The big innkeeper didn't know how long he hadn't washed his hair. The smell from his messy hair like a chicken coop could almost overwhelm him. Qinggang, who had a good sense of perception, immediately shrank his head and sat back on his seat. Seat, the Wildhammer didn't move at all, just kept staring around at the unfriendly crowd around him.Only Lao Mo and Fang Yi had to endure the suffering of their noses, and at the same time showed helpless wry smiles.

"I think you have offended the dignitaries of Startwilight City too~" The innkeeper looked at the black cloaked thief and the skinny man of unknown occupation in front of him, showing a look that you understand me and everyone understands, "Come here Don't they all want to find a way out and find a way to leave Xingmu City?"

"Why do you have to leave? Xingmu City is so big, you can always find a place to live?" The old devil asked suspiciously, and also expressed Fang Yi's question, "From my understanding, the lord of Xingmu City He is a mortal, and his subordinates do not have enough energy to maintain a high pressure in the entire Star Twilight City."

The innkeeper's eyes shone brightly, carefully looking at the few people in front of him.Knowing Fang Yi's back felt a little numb after watching, he smiled with his yellow teeth, "You don't know about pirates?"

Hearing this, Fang Yi's heart tightened, "Wait! Of course we are aware of the collusion between the nobles and pirates in Xingmu City, but when will pirates affect the lives of the residents of Xingmu City?"

"That's because you are too ignorant. The reason we hid here is because old Charlie sold all the means of livelihood for us to pirates," the boss said with disdain on his face. I can hear it.

"for example?"

The old devil continued to ask unwillingly.Although it is an open secret that the nobles of Star Twilight City have an affair with the pirates in the Falling Star Sea.But no one has ever seen the other party appear near the city. Of course, the mage didn't know it, just recently.Fang Yi has already dealt with a small group of pirates once.

And compared to the old devil.The clues in Fang Yi's mind became clearer.Thinking of Li Xu's younger brother colluding with pirates, thinking of Li Xu's huge family business, and thinking of the familiar feeling when he first entered the hotel.An idea suddenly popped up in Fang Yi's mind.

"sailor!?"

The boss was about to answer the old devil's question, when he heard such a sentence from the thief next to him, he looked at Fang Yi in surprise, "Did you guess it?"

Seeing the other party's expression, Fang Yixin said that he guessed right.The way this group of people talked and the scene of eating and drinking together, no matter how they looked, they looked like those sailors who had returned from the voyage seen in the pier hotel.

The most important thing is that on the way here, Fang Yi and the others have seen many aborigines. The people who have lived here for a long time are all pale, and it seems that they have not seen the sun for a long time.But most of those who drank in the hotel had dark complexions, as if they had been in the sun for a long time.

"Let me guess, wouldn't the sailors on those ships in the port of Xingmu City be forcibly replaced?" Fang Yi boldly guessed, "It wasn't a big deal at first, but after the tragedy in the slums ...Many of them are family members of the sailors, and I think they also feel the threat of the city lord's mansion. So people have nowhere to go and thought of going here?"

"You're right," the innkeeper didn't respond, but a hoarse voice came from behind Fang Yi, a bald man who was two heads taller than Fang Yi came to the stage, stared at Fang Yi and said, " So, you're one of old Charlie's people who followed us here, right?"

As soon as the big man's words came out, the people present immediately stopped laughing and stood up one after another, staring at the four people sitting on the stage with unfriendly expressions.Although Wildhammer was not good at analyzing intelligence, but in terms of combat awareness, he was second only to Fang Yi in the Mithril Shell Team. Feeling that the atmosphere was not right, he immediately twisted and stood on the high chair, and at the same time took off the inheritance of glory behind him , the fierce eyes did not give in, and returned the hostile eyes of the crowd.

Qinggang was drinking the fruit juice on his own, seeing Wildhammer in a fighting stance, still holding the wine glass in his left hand, subconsciously cast a blessing spell with his right hand, and turned to face the dark crowd behind him.

The atmosphere in the hall immediately took a turn for the worse, the strong smell of gunpowder had already spread, Wildhammer's hand holding the hilt of the sword became tighter and tighter, and the image of the guys holding daggers in front of them splashing blood on the spot appeared in their minds. It's about to wave the shield and shoot it up in a moment!

"Curacho!"

The old devil didn't fully understand the situation, so he quickly glared at the dwarf warrior, but fortunately, the Wildhammer still had a sense of proportion and didn't draw his sword.

Just as he was about to pull the impulsive Wildhammer off the stool, Fang Yi, who was standing next to the old devil, took a step faster. He had already rushed onto the stage, put aside his cloak and pulled out the double blades around his waist, and then there was a series of ups and downs. The sound of clashing swords and swords, the noisy hotel lobby will soon become a battlefield!

The mage was very anxious. Among the four, Cube had the most adventure experience. Why was he so restless this time? Where is the time to fight?Besides, it's too inexplicable to fight like this now!

"Who was present at the massacre that night!"

However, contrary to everyone's expectations, Fang Yi, who had drawn out his double blades, did not launch an offensive posture. Instead, he raised two weapons, one white and one blue, above his head, and shouted loudly. The people whose eyes were gradually reddened slightly I was taken aback for a moment, not understanding what this skilled thief was trying to sell.

"Let me ask again, who was there on the night of the slum tragedy!?" Fang Yi shouted angrily, looking around the crowd in the hall, "But there are still people who remember these two weapons!"

The people who had already drawn out their daggers, held their long swords and benches looked at each other, and the buzzing voice gradually sounded.

"I remember!"

At this moment, an excited voice suddenly came from the direction of the door, followed by a thin boy who squeezed over from the fast crowd, came to the side of the bald man, pointed at Fang Yi and said eagerly.

"Uncle Tommy, he, he...he is the one who saved Amy!"

"Did you forget? I told you that there was a powerful adventurer who killed dozens of robbers, and then left the square with Amy in his arms! That's him! I've seen him!"

The little boy's ambiguous words echoed in the quiet hall because of his anxiety, and both faces were flushed with excitement.Hearing what the little boy said, the tense atmosphere at the scene immediately changed. The bald man looked up at the thief standing on the table holding double blades, and his expression changed.

"I remembered, that person was indeed holding a scimitar and a dagger, that's what it looked like." The undulating chest of the big man also proved that he was not calm at this time, "But..."

"But do you need other evidence?" Fang Yi lowered his hands and jumped off the table seeing that the crowd's emotions had been controlled. "You all know Gelbo, and he can testify for me. In addition ...I'm sorry for your family, and what happened to Joel."

Joel was the blacksmith that Fang Yi went to immediately after he ran out of Li Xu's mansion with Gelbo.Fang Yi had already heard from Xia Ou that this loyal blacksmith and his family were killed in the massacre that night.

Hearing Fang Yi say the names of Joel and Gelbo, the crowd immediately became noisy.Although the old man Gelbo doesn't have much contact with players, he is indeed quite familiar with the low-level NPCs.The story of Fang Yi killing dozens of powerful robbers alone that night has long been spread in the slums, but Fang Yi did not intentionally leave his name.Now that he was sure that the hero in his heart was right in front of him, a group of big men immediately came up and surrounded them.

Qinggang was fine, but the tallest dwarf warrior standing was the first to be attacked.Wildhammer was directly pulled off the stool, and his shaggy beard was molested by countless people, and the voice of protest was drowned out in the crowd long ago.

At this time, Fang Yi had already figured out the whole thing: his team was cheated by that hemp rope.

All the people in this skunk hotel have just come here from the surface world, and they must be eager to see the squirrels. The Mithril shell team came here to "jump the queue", and these people's identities are sensitive , If you are not careful, you will get into trouble.

Fang Yi tried his best to calm down everyone's emotions.After stating the purpose of his group, everyone's eyes immediately fell on the innkeeper.

"That hemp rope? That's a villain," the innkeeper heard Fang Yi's description, and immediately understood the twists and turns. "Every inn has a secret place where you can come into contact with squirrels. He asked you to come here. I'm afraid I'm not safe~"

"Then how can we meet the squirrel? We really have something very important to find him this time,"

After figuring out that the three were Fang Yi's teammates, the bald man patted the shoulders of the three one by one. The old devil, who was the weakest in physique, almost couldn't straighten up from the slap, but he still didn't forget the most important thing at the moment. matter, quickly asked.

The boss found four clean wooden cups for them again, shook his head and said, "I can only give you a way to meet him, as for whether you can succeed, it all depends on your ability~"

"However, let me remind you, don't try to use lures. Here, if others know that you are not good enough, they will not hesitate to take things from you, and squirrels are the best in this industry!" (To be continued ..)
