Lord of War

Vol 2 Chapter 204: .Changes and plans

   is still in the private room at the end of the corridor on the left, but the only people meeting this time are Alfred, Anno, Sean and Eli Kate, and Xuefanio and Rena did not appear here.

  In fact, after Sean’s contact with the old man last night, whether Sean is willing or not, he has officially entered the eyes of most residents of Luomingen. Even behind those two groups of people who showed different attitudes towards the old man last night, they must have known the existence of such a person as Shaun. Fortunately, the group of guys who just wanted to protect the old man's safety, the other group of people, after expressing their hostility to the old man, still asked Alfred to protect the old man. Then this is an offensive approach.

  At this moment, seeing Ali Kate's face so serious, the atmosphere in the private room has also become a little low.

   Sean frowned, he probably realized what Eli Kate wanted to say.

  "Did you have a conflict with someone else last night?" Avery Kate asked straightforwardly, "I mean, after contacting that Master Roda."

  Master Roda, the old man that Sean tried to approach.

Sean turned his head to look at Alfred. When Avery Kate saw Sean’s move, he immediately understood what was going on, so he turned his head and looked at Alfred, but he was casual with Sean. With different attitudes, Elickett’s attitude is obviously going to be a little more serious-at least in Elickett’s perception, Alfred’s terrible degree is far higher than that of Sean, currently in the nobility of the Kingdom of Darbion In the list, the most dangerous figure is still Alfred, followed by William Yale, and as the direct superior of these two men, Sean Connery ranks third.

  Under such influence, Avery Kate naturally has to be a little more respectful when facing Alfred.

"No." Alfred shook his head altogether. "After I sent the old man home, it was probably less than ten o'clock. An apprentice of the old man opened the door. The other party is now knowing my identity is one. When I was the family knight of the Viscount, he warmly invited me to take a rest and drink a cup of hot cocoa before leaving, but I refused.... When I returned to the tavern, it was less than eleven o’clock. Also present."

   "Yes." Anno nodded, "I just finished eating at that meeting..."

   "Wait, you start eating at 9:30 and continue eating until eleven?" Sean interrupted Anno.

   "Yes." Anno looked like it was taken for granted, "Didn't you say that if I am not full, I can go downstairs and continue eating?"

  Shaun glanced at Anno’s belly. He wondered why it hadn’t been broken yet?

"Ahem." When Avery Kate saw the expressions of Sean, Anno and Alfred, he had to cough lightly to remind the three of the environment at the moment, "If you haven't had a conflict with anyone, then This is a bit tricky."

   "What's the matter?" Sean frowned.

"Several adventurers hired by Baron Yeros died in Songguo Street last night." Eli Kate said, "These five people died in the same way. After inspection, it has been determined that they were similar to boxing skills and heavy weapons. Kill with the weapon."

When Sean heard the first sentence, he instinctively wanted to ask Xuefanio, because in addition to Alfred last night, Xuefanio was also accompanied. The two complemented each other over and over. The purpose is to prevent some situations that Alfred can't cope with. But after hearing the second half of Ali Kate’s sentence, Sean felt that there was no need to ask Xuefanio, because if it were her, then the other party would most likely become ice sculptures, or even a bunch of ice sculptures. Crushed ice cubes.

  Furthermore, the strength of those adventurers is only a bronze level. Even if Xuefaniao would really make a move, it would be impossible to bully such a person. The two sides are not at the same level at all. Not to mention Xuefanio, even Alfred and Anno, if they are not necessary, they will not act like a person in the Bronze realm, because this is a very cheap thing-of course the most important thing is , There is no benefit.

"I thought there would be only two groups of people who were looking at that old man. I didn't expect that there would be a third group lurking in the dark." Sean sneered, "Those who were killed by weapons such as heavy weapons, Are there obvious sharp scars on the body, like being killed by weapons such as an axe or a spear."

   "Yes." Eli Kai nodded.

   But soon, he also reacted immediately: "I was framed!"

There is no doubt that there are definitely more than two groups of people eyeing the old man, and the group of people who shot last night must have left the tavern after Sean and Anno returned to the second floor. Otherwise, Sean would never have been absent. Find. And judging from the details of the opponent’s shots, it is clear that the other party has a certain degree of stalking understanding of Sean and others, otherwise it would be impossible to make such a clever arrangement-after all, Alfred had his work before last night. They were all carrying the flaming lion fangs.

Even if the Flame Lion’s fangs did not disassemble the white cloth strips, it can still be judged from the outline that this is definitely a long-handled heavy weapon, and there are not many weapons that can become a long-handled heavy weapon. To conceal it, no matter what kind of long-handled heavy weapon Alfred finally brought out, it can match the wound. In addition, Alfred only said last night that he was confident in his boxing skills, and Alfred did not take a weapon last night, so judging from this point,  Sean probably It can be guessed that the other party must have a character similar to a thief. Only such a person can overhear Alfred's confident words last night, so those who are hostile to the old man will die of boxing skills.

   "What is on that old man's body that deserves so many people to stare at him at the same time?" Sean asked.

"I don't know this." Eli Kate shook his head. "But the only thing that is clear is that Master Roda obtained a mysterious drawing. This drawing has nothing to do with architecture and design, but it is said that If it can be successfully manufactured, it will definitely cause a sensation."

   "Who said this?" Sean asked.

"Uh, an appraiser in the ward of the Mage Luo Mingen." Eli Kate is obviously more knowledgeable about the gossip in this regard, "but this appraiser is a person who can't hide secrets. Originally Luo Mingen. The mage ward was already secretly negotiating with Master Roda, and when the matter was about to be negotiated, the appraiser told a wealthy businessman because he was drunk in the salon area, but the wealthy businessman ended up talking about it. I just raised this matter to several other honorable nobles, and as a result, these people began to try to take the mysterious blueprint as their own..."

   "Needless to say later, it must have been the negotiation between the Luo Mingen branch of the Mage Guild and the old man."

"Yes." Elikai nodded characteristically. "Even if Master Roda is a respectable person, he still has to think about his position. After all, there are many people who want his mysterious drawing. Nobles, maybe they can’t compete with the members of the Mage Guild, but if the trouble is really uncomfortable, it will be Master Rhoda, so if the Mage ward of Luomingen has no guarantee, the Master will not pay. This drawing came out."

"So is there any conflict between this and our plan to change?" Sean asked, "I didn't plan to get involved in the fight for this drawing. It's their business how they like to fight. All I want is Hayes. The architectural blueprint of Ting Manor is nothing more than."

   "It's related." Eli Kate said with a serious face, "The key to the matter lies with Baron Yeros."

   "What's wrong with this baron?" Sean was a little confused, "Isn't he just a lifelong honorary baron?"

"It's a hereditary system." Eli Kate corrected Sean's words, "The Yeros family is a small family, but the current patriarch of the Hastings family, the second wife of Domingo Hastings is the Yeross family. The sister of the current patriarch... In a sense, the Yeros family can be regarded as the watchdog of the Hastings family. Most of the time when the Hastings family is inconvenient to come forward, it is the Yeross family. Responsible to come forward, you know, this is the unspoken rule in aristocratic circles."

"A fig leaf." Xiao En sneered. "So, that mysterious drawing was actually what the Hastings family wanted?... I said I wanted this drawing, but there was one. The man is full of strong hostility towards the old man. Under normal circumstances, he shouldn't go roundabout and come in contact with the old man. After gaining his favor, he can find a way to start. It turns out that there is a big man behind him. No wonder he dared to be so unscrupulous."

"It's not impossible for you to understand this way. In fact, it is indeed similar to this situation." Alikai nodded characteristically, "So the deaths of the adventurers did not cause any loss to the Yeros family, but it was. It will expose you all completely, and you may even be hostile by the Hastings family because of this, so that other people interested in that drawing can start more easily."

"It's a good idea. It's not easy to come up with this guy. After all, as a foreign honorable nobleman, I really don't have any foundation in Luo Mingen. Offending Yeros is equivalent to offending Hastings at the same time. , As Hasting’s identity as a local snake, in order to Liwei, we must also take our hands. This way, when the Hastings family focuses on us, the other party will definitely be able to easily obtain the drawing... If you don’t believe that the other party can set up such a perfect planting trap, there will be no other follow-up."

   "So, our plan must be revised."

  "Some modifications and adjustments are really needed." Sean curled his lips in disdain, "Hmph, arrange a meeting with the Hastings family for me."

   "What?" Avery Kate was stunned.

"Huh, this guy's methods are quite naive compared to Neil and William." The sarcasm on Sean's face is even thicker. In fact, in contrast to Neil's ability to plan for churches from all over the continent to gather in Void City. It even provoked hostility between the church and the Pan-Continent Business Association Alliance. This is indeed not something that ordinary people can make. Therefore, even if the Hastings family can see it at a glance, they will Play stupid.

  But Sean would not act according to the other party's script. He decided to take the initiative and put the initiative back in his own hands.

  Of course, this is also a good opportunity.
