Game of the World Tree

After speaking, Xiao Xianmiao said it out without waiting for other players to answer:

"Do you still remember the human butler we caught when we were doing the crocodile mercenary mission?"

"That housekeeper is also in this town?"

Li Mu was taken aback for a moment.

It was he who asked at the beginning, so he was quite impressed by this butler who was afraid of death.

"Yes, but... the way he is now, it feels like you might not even recognize him."

Xiao Xianmiao said, and threw a screenshot from the chat group when she was peeping in the dark.

That was the scene of the skinny guard talking to Anders.

The skinny guard's face was flattering, and Anders' expression was ugly.

However, the expression is second, and what attracts players is what Anders looks like now.

This old housekeeper was not as rich as he had seen before, but was skinny and skinny, with a sallow complexion and dry hair, looking like he had fled for several months.

The clothes he wears are far from the housekeeper's clothes at the beginning, but put on a winter coat of a poor villager.

"I'll go, how did this guy lose so much? I remember when I first saw him in the crocodile mercenary camp, he was as fat as a ball."

"It's really him... I almost can't recognize him."

"Why is he in this town?"

Seeing the surprised expressions of other players, Xiao Xianmao smiled and continued to send messages on the chat channel:

"I've inquired about it. He seemed to have been lost on the road for almost two months before he finally rushed back. That's why he tossed like this. Well, heard from the villagers, he also came to town for a while before us. "

"Puff... lost?"

"This is too beautiful, right?"

Li Mu raised his eyebrows slightly:

"A lot of the villagers he walked with?"

"I knocked on the side, and the others didn't come back. Only a dozen people we let off that day came back."

Xiao Xianmiao replied.

After reading the message she sent, the cuckoo bird frowned:

"Other people? That is to say... Myrell robbed this village in the first place?"

"Cough cough cough... it's a buy, uh... it's a forced purchase, but it seems that it is not the villagers who forced the purchase. The villagers were just arrested as coolies. Myrell directly forced the purchase of a human earl's nearby property..."

"In its words, trading with the nobles can make a lot of money, and trading with those poor ghosts can't make money..."

Xiao Xianmiao explained with some weirdness.

Cuckoo:...

"I just thought, aren't we going to Maple Leaf City? This guy who is afraid of death is the butler of the earl of Maple Leaf City, so it happened to be on the way! And...the reason why the guards who received us are going to the city tomorrow, seems to be escorting He goes back."

"So... I think, can we run the road a bit and see if we can follow this butler's line to catch the nobles of Maple Leaf City or the auction chamber..."

Xiao Xianmiao said.

After hearing her words, the players all looked moved:

"That's a good idea!"

"Yes! I remember that when I interrogated this guy, he seemed to know a lot, and he would definitely be able to get along with him!"

However, some players hesitate:

"But the question is...how to gain his trust, and...will he recognize us?"

"He didn't recognize us."

Xiao Xianmiao shook her head and continued:

"Just now he seemed to be still inquiring about our origins with the guards! I just don't know why he didn't come to ask us in person..."

"I think it should be that day when we made a surprise attack. When we finally won the mercenary group, everyone was bloodied again. They couldn't see clearly at first, but now they all changed their appearance slightly. So he never recognized us..."

"By the way, he didn't recognize our carriage either, indicating that our transformation is still very effective."

Xiao Xianmiao said his judgment.

After listening to Xiao Xianmiao's words, the players also nodded.

This makes sense.

However, after listening to Xiao Xianmiao's words, Bentong's brows wrinkled slightly.

He pondered for a moment, then suddenly asked:

"He's asking about us?"

"Hmm, I saw it with my own eyes."

Xiao Xianmiao nodded.

The brows of Bento's furrowed deeper.

Seeing him like this, Li Mu's heart moved slightly:

"What's wrong, box lunch brother, there is a problem?"

Bento nodded slightly, and said in a deep voice:

"It feels... he's hiding."

"hide?"

Other players looked dumbfounded.

Li Mu opened his mouth and was about to ask something, but when he saw the lunch box he suddenly looked at Demacia:

"Clothes, take them out."

"what clothes?"

Demacia was taken aback for a moment.

"You picked it up."

Bento said.

Demacia suddenly.

He patted his head, then took out a worn-out blood-stained clothing from the accompanying car, and murmured as he pulled it out:

"I almost forgot about this... I thought it was a plot item, but in the end they all entered the village. There was nothing. I was about to throw it away..."

However, as he spoke, he stopped talking.

Because he suddenly saw Bentong and Li Mu's expression gradually became serious.

Even the tomatoes fried with tomatoes narrowed his eyes slightly.

They all stared at the clothes in Demacia's hands, thoughtfully.

"What...what's wrong?"

Demacia suddenly felt a little guilty:

"I didn't hide the baby this time. Really, don't believe me. Look, I haven't turned over this dress... and it's not mercenary's clothes, and it's nothing greasy..."

Li Mu:...

Xiao Xian Miao:...

Cuckoo:...

Fried tomatoes with tomatoes:...

"What's the mess?"

Li Mu couldn't laugh or cry.

He examined the clothes in Demacia's hands for a while, and sighed slightly:

"Demacia, don't you think this dress is a bit familiar when you look closely?"

"look familiar?"

Demacia was taken aback for a moment.

He picked up his clothes carefully and looked at it, suddenly a little surprised:

"This...a bit like the clothes of the humans who were captured by the black dragon."

Bento's eyes scowled, he snatched the clothes from Demacia's hands and unfolded them...

This is a rather worn-out dress, the center of which is blackened with blood.

But after unfolding the clothes, Bento's expression became more serious.

He pointed to the blood on his clothes and said:

"The wound is on the back."

"This is a knife behind the back."

After hearing his words, Li Mu's expression moved slightly:

"You mean... the housekeeper did it?"

Bento looked at him:

"Great probability."

The cuckoo's expression also changed.

She frowned and thought, suddenly:

"It's very likely...On this road, he is the only one walking in this direction with us."

"However, if it is really him, why would he kill those who fled with him? There is no benefit..."

Demacia was a little strange.

"It's probably related to the battle of the Crocodile Mercenary Group. He is afraid that he is killing his mouth, and he is afraid that he has some ideas in his heart... Maybe it is related to us."

Li Mu said.

After speaking, Li Mu's eyes flickered:

"I heard from the returning elven NPC that the frontier man of the Holy Mania Empire, like the orcs, also relied on elves to make their fortunes."

"Not only that, he is powerful, and the high-end combat power below the legend is even more powerful than the half-orcs...If the half-orcs are not blessed by the true gods, maybe he can destroy the tens of thousands of half-orcs' army with just a frontier man. "

"The size of the thousands of people when we raided the crocodile mercenary group, and the black dragon Myrell, in his eyes might be a threat or a prey..."

After hearing what he said, Demacia looked strange:

"Brother Mu, do you mean that the butler is killing his mouth, and then intends to take credit for our news?"

"Probably."

"But, if he really did it, what did he do with the clothes? Didn't he expose himself to murder?"

Demacia still had some doubts.

However, he soon welcomed Cuckoo Bird and Li Mu Qiqi's eyes:

"what season is it now?"

"winter?"

Demacia was stunned.

He widened his eyes and slapped his thigh:

"That's it! His housekeeper's clothes are so thin, they don't look like warm ones. They brought these clothes to keep warm. When he came back soon, he threw them away with a guilty conscience, but I didn't expect to be picked up by me!"

Li Mu nodded slightly and said at the same time:

"Those dozen people, but none of them came back."

Demacia frowned:

"Brother Mu~www.ltnovel.com~ Do you mean that the housekeeper killed everyone else? Just him? That timid, we were so scared that we peeed at the beginning!"

"That's because we are afraid that we are so many and powerful, and replaced by a dozen ordinary NPCs who are not even professionals?"

Xiao Xianmiao asked back.

Demacia was speechless for a while.

Li Mu pondered for a while and said:

"This butler... has a problem."

"We can be careful with him, we can consider going with him, but we must be careful."

"No... this time, it's best to walk with him, maybe I can figure out what he is doing..."

"Well, it's another hidden plot. I'm not sure."
