I, the refined goblin, loaded the ultimate training system

Could this old guy be from Pale Hands?

Seeing the familiar crying face mask on the other party's face, Luka was immediately curious and stepped forward and shouted loudly.

"Old man, wake up."

Luka didn't like this old guy who knocked on his door in the middle of the night at all. If it weren't for the fact that they had to talk about something next, he would have even wanted to pour a bottle of water on his head.

"Ahem...well, why are you shouting so loudly? I'm not deaf!"

The old man with a crying face trembled when Luka called him. Then he rubbed his eyes vigorously, shook his head twice, looked at Luka and said.

"You are Luka Bigdik, right? We have a job for you, will you take it?"

"It's me, so what does talking about business mean?" Luka didn't expect the old man to be so direct, so he sat directly on the chair next to him.

"Do a small thing for us, and we will give you a generous reward when it is completed." As the crying-faced old man said, he reached out and groped in the sheets under his buttocks, and then took out a fingernail-sized piece that exuded a strange smell. Shimmering green gemstone ring.

"Aren't you working as a guard under the third prince? This matter is just a piece of cake for you. You only need to hide this ring in any corner of her residence."

"You mean any corner will do?" Luka couldn't help but frowned after hearing the other party's request.

When he heard the old man mentioning his identity as a bodyguard, Luka thought that the other party would ask him to poison him, steal or the like, but he didn't expect that it would be as simple as putting a ring on him.

But the more simple and trivial it was, the more Luka felt there was something wrong with it, especially when the old man promised a generous reward, which was really illogical.

Chapter 149

But the more simple and trivial it was, the more Luka felt there was something wrong with it, especially when the old man promised a generous reward, which was really illogical.

"Haha, it's not that simple. You have to put it somewhere close to the third prince's bedroom." The old man with a crying face said slowly, and burped in the middle of the process. The rotten and smelly smell made Lu Ka almost vomited out.

Seeing that Luka just looked at the green ring in his hand for a long time without agreeing, the old man with a crying face simply put the ring back into his pocket, then took out a heavy cloth bag from under the bed and threw it on the wooden table in front of Luka. .

Just by listening to the sound in the bag, Luka could tell that it must be filled with gold coins. He glanced subconsciously and saw that there were as small as four hundred coins.

If it was in the past, such a reward would indeed make Luka consider it, but now...

Apart from anything else, as long as he was willing to ask for Naledo's demands, the pocket money of ten thousand gold coins a month would probably not be a big problem.

"You are very generous." Luka took the heavy bag and weighed it twice before opening it. He stared at the shiny gold coins inside and swallowed, pretending to be excited, but then adjusted it. After coughing twice while sitting, he looked at the old man with a crying face and said seriously.

"It's just that you are looking down on me too much if you want to use money to make me betray His Highness the Prince."

"Haha, I understand what you mean, but this is just a deposit. We will also thank you deeply after the event is completed." The old man with a crying face did not see through Luka's superb acting skills. He thought he thought he was not paid enough, so he immediately Start making promises.

"As long as you put the ring in accordance with our requirements, we will give you a reward equal to four times the deposit after the event is completed." The old man with a crying face kept gesticulating as he spoke. In his opinion, this price is absolutely It can make Luka's heart flutter.

However, what he didn't expect was that instead of agreeing, Luka snorted coldly after hearing this.

"Four times? If this is all you have sincerity, then I think there is no need to continue the discussion."

After saying that, Luka stood up and left, leaving the crying old man sitting opposite dumbfounded.

"and many more!"

Seeing that Luka was about to open the door and go out, the crying old man couldn't sit still anymore and immediately spoke to persuade him to stay.

"If you are not satisfied with the remuneration, we can discuss it again. As long as you are willing to agree to this matter, we can discuss everything about money."

"Is it."

Luka paused after hearing this, turned around and looked at the crying old man opposite, with a half-smiling expression on his face.

"Then I really want to know, what exactly do you want me to do? Just put a small ring and give me such a generous reward. Do you think I will believe that there is no problem? After all, you don't know anything. Are you willing to reveal it to me? Does this count as sincerity?"

"This..." The crying-faced old man was stunned by Luka's words. His face turned red and he didn't know how to answer for a long time.

"Haha, since you won't say anything, I don't think there is any need for us to continue communicating, so I won't excuse you." After Luka said that, he walked directly outside, ignoring the cry of the old man behind him.

"Wait! Please wait, we really don't have any ill intentions, and we are willing to pay a higher reward."

The old man with a crying face was already panicking, and he quickly chased out and stopped Luka.

"Oh? Higher pay? I'm looking forward to it." Luka stopped and looked at the crying old man and said.

"Frankly speaking, this ring will be of great use to us in the future. If you are willing to agree, we can give you six thousand gold coins as a reward, and we will arrange for you to leave the kingdom immediately after the event is completed to ensure your safety. "The old man with a crying face said through gritted teeth.

Originally, the upper limit of the bid arranged for him by the organization was [-]. He also thought that he could pay less and get some kickbacks. Now, it was better. Not to mention that he couldn't get a single point. In order to complete the task, he had to promise to deliver Luka safely. Just leave.

At this moment, Luka was also muttering in his heart because of the actions of the crying-faced old man.

You are willing to pay such a high price to hide this thing... It seems that your intentions are not small.

After thinking carefully, Luka decided to agree first and see what the other party was going to do.

The other party dared to offer such generous conditions. Even if he didn't agree, there was no guarantee that other guards wouldn't be tempted by them to agree.

"Okay, but I require one-third of the deposit to be paid in advance." Luka pretended to think deeply and then said slowly.

As for asking for a higher deposit, it is naturally to increase credibility. This greedy performance in the transaction will only make the other party believe that he has indeed agreed.

"Okay... Come back tomorrow night and I will give you the money." Seeing that Luka finally agreed, the crying old man agreed to the condition.

After taking the money and leaving the room, Luka did not leave directly. Instead, he wandered around the corridor of the tavern for a while. After confirming that no one was following him, he found a deserted corner and put on his mask before entering the tavern lobby. .

Unlike ordinary taverns, the Evil Rat Tavern is a well-known illegal trading place in the underworld. In addition to the normal seats, there are many small rooms isolated by wooden boards in the hall. Some guests will talk or do other things in them. whats the matter.

At least as Luka walked along, he heard a few thirsty sounds coming from the door, and several scantily clad female workers invited him into the room for a "little chat."

Luka had no interest in this kind of female who had turned into a black hole in some places. After casually dismissing her, he walked to the penultimate small room on the right as planned, knocked on the door four times and coughed dryly.

After a moment, the door was opened from the inside. Luka lowered his head and quickly ducked in, then closed and locked the door.

I saw three girls with their faces covered in the room. Their whole bodies were covered tightly by gray clothes. It was impossible to tell who they were. Even Luka had to identify them by their body shape.

"How is the situation?" Elufa, who was working in the middle, was the first to ask.

"It's more unexpected than expected. There is a big fish." Luka said slowly, threw the bag of gold coins he got on the table, and then naturally sat on the soft thigh of the girl on the right.

However, the moment Luka sat down, a pair of palms directly covered his eyes, and then a charming voice sounded in his ears.

"Honey, guess who I am~"

No, there’s no need to guess?

Luka, who covered his eyes, was quite speechless - not to mention that only a certain succubus liked to use this title, and based on his familiarity with their bodies, he knew who it was the moment he sat on his lap.

This soft and elastic fleshy texture can only come from Wei Yin.

Chapter 150 Green Ring

"Stop making trouble, Wei Yin. If you do this, be careful. I'll leave you alone at night and let you watch. Then you can play with your tail alone." Luka said helplessly.

"Humph~" After hearing this, Wei Yin reluctantly let go of her hand, took off her mask and pouted with an angry look on her face. She looked cute, but also filled with an inexplicable temptation. force.

"Okay, let's get down to business." Luka ignored Wei Yin's expression and went straight to the topic.

"Okay..." Wei Yin nodded, and then began to tell the information she had investigated.

Worried that this so-called transaction might be a complete package, Luka arranged for Wei Yin and Elfa to go over to investigate the situation before leaving. As the censors of the church, this kind of investigation is a trivial matter for them. In case of danger, it is also convenient to reveal your identity to make the other party afraid.

"The guy who lives in that room is a bad old man who likes to drink. You must know this, dear, but unfortunately he was already living here when we came here, and he basically never left the room during this period. The only time he went out was to buy various drinks and then go back to his room. I couldn’t find out where he came from.”

"That's it..." Luka bit his lip lightly upon hearing this.

It seems that the other party is very cautious. He stayed in advance and prepared everything before contacting me. I am afraid that he made preparations because he thought that he might be investigated.

This is consistent with the status of a member of the "Pale Hand" of the crying old man. After all, it is an organization that the royal family has been searching for for many years without finding a trace. It will definitely not leave any loopholes easily.

"By the way, dear, what do you mean when you say you found a big fish?" Wei Yin asked curiously, remembering what Luka said when he came in.

"Well..." Luka cleared his throat, and then said the strange request made by the crying old man.

After hearing that the other party's request was just to hide a green ring near Naledo's bedroom, several girls also collectively fell into deep thought.

"It's really unreasonable to ask for such a high reward for such a simple request... Could that green ring be some kind of very dangerous magic item?" Erin, who was sitting opposite Luka, put forward her own guess.

"It's completely possible, but it's a pity that I couldn't look more carefully at the time." Luka nodded slightly, and then sighed.

Although Luka did sense very subtle magic fluctuations from the green ring at that time, the crying old man and Ben took him away without giving him a chance to see the clues.

"But I have good news. This old man has to withdraw money tonight or tomorrow because of my request. You can follow him then and see if you can find anything." Luka thought for a while and added.

"Of course, the premise is that he doesn't find out. If you encounter difficulties, just give up first. It won't be too late to check after I get the ring."

"We understand, don't worry!" several girls said in unison.

"Well, remember that your mission is to keep an eye on him to withdraw money, and don't expose him." Luka warned him one last time, and then slowly left.

Although the ultimate purpose of the "Pale Hand" is still unclear, it is still necessary to inform Naledo to be careful recently.

……

The day passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was time to meet again.

Naledo was very excited when she learned that the "Pale Hand" had reappeared. She ordered the guards to arrest the crying old man on the spot, forcing Lucca to give her an injection before she calmed down.

However, what Luka did not expect was that Elufa and others could easily successfully track the old man with a crying face and saw him withdrawing money from a chamber of commerce. However, when he left to investigate, things ended up in a deadlock.

Although Elfa and Wei Yin immediately frightened the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce and cried for mercy after revealing their identities as church prosecutors, the source of the money of the crying old man was still not found out - according to the person in charge of the Chamber of Commerce, The old man with a crying face used an anonymous certificate of deposit, so there was no way to know the source of his money.

There is no doubt that this must have been prepared by the "Pale Hand" in advance.

In this case, the only way is for Luka to go to the appointment in person and then find a way to obtain more information.

"As you requested, I brought one-third of the reward as a deposit, which is two thousand gold coins."

In the room, the old man with a crying face simply placed several large bags of gold coins in front of Luka, and untied the ropes, revealing the golden coins inside.

"If you're worried, you can count them yourself. We won't treat you badly." The old man with a crying face said with a smile, looking funny and vulgar.

"It's not necessary. Since you are sincere, just give me the things." Luka briefly glanced at the gold coins on the ground, then gently tapped the table, signaling the crying old man to take out the things.

"A wise choice." Hearing this, the crying old man took out the ring that exuded a faint green light from his clothes and handed it to Luka.

After taking the ring, Luka immediately held it in his hand and began to concentrate on sensing it carefully.

However, after some perception, Luka could not find any other problems except that he could feel that the ring was emitting weak magic power, as if it was really just an ordinary ring.

"Although it's a bit inappropriate, I still want to ask, what are you going to do?" Luka put the ring into his clothes, then stared at the crying old man in front of him and asked.

"I really can't say this, but don't worry, according to the agreement, we will ensure that you leave safely after the matter is completed." The old man with a crying face shook his head.

"Okay." Seeing this situation, Luka didn't bother to protest, but stood up and left directly - although he couldn't see anything wrong with the ring, he could shake people off.

For example, there is a legendary mage who is trapped in a book and cannot get out. With her knowledge, if there is really something special about this ring, she will definitely recognize it.

As for the next matter of tracking this old man, leave it to Elfa and the others.

……

In the bedroom, Luka placed the green ring next to the Book of Junor, and then quietly waited for Ululis to give him a reply.

Due to the absorption of mysterious runes last time, although Ululis is still unable to come out, she can now simply intervene and perceive external situations, including direct telepathic communication with Luka.

"Well... no wonder you can't recognize it. This thing is rare even in my hometown."

After waiting quietly for a few minutes, Ululis's voice sounded in Luka's mind.

Chapter 151 Boundary Stone

"Are they rare in your hometown? What's so special about this thing?" Luka asked in surprise after hearing Ululis's words.

"This is a bit complicated to tell you..."

Ululis was about to introduce Luka in detail, but before she could speak, the door was suddenly pushed open.

"How's it going? Did you find any clues?" Luka looked up at Wei Yin who walked into the house and asked.

"Of course, I can't let you down, my dear~"

Wei Yin nodded lightly, then took out a piece of paper and handed it to Luka. The portrait on it was very clear, and it looked like it was carved out with an image stone.

"We followed the old man for a long distance. The old man was very cautious and walked around several times before meeting someone. We followed the clues and found the information about this man. He is the owner of a tailor shop in the Nancheng District of the Royal Capital. His name is Alva Fitzgerald..."

"According to the investigation, he has been working there for 12 years. Asking his neighbors all said that he has never had a criminal record or suspicious behavior. I can only say that these rats are indeed hidden deep enough." Wei Yin pointed to the portrait and introduced slowly. road.

"Is that so..."

After hearing this, Luka took the portrait and glanced at it, then his eyebrows furrowed tightly, as if he was thinking about something.

The person in this portrait looks to be in his 50s or [-]s. His facial profile is very ordinary, his nose is high and broad, his lips are slightly thin, and his temples are gray. The whole person looks a bit thin, but his eyes are very sharp, like an eagle. Same.
