Chapter 287 Aftermath. Searching Ⅰ

After Dean left the lion mercenary group's residence, he didn't go straight back to his residence. Instead, he started wandering outside the civilian area of ​​Horsh City.

According to his inference, Earl Hosh's people should have already taken action by now.

It is far more convincing for him to return on his own initiative than to be found by the other party.

In fact, it would be even better if some surprises were created!

For example: entering a certain secret organization, a battle occurs, and then, bluntly revealing that he was brought here.

However, apart from the black market, Dean didn't know the specific locations of the other secret organizations in Horsh City.

Even the black market, I only knew about it because I bought items when I passed by Horsh City last time.

As for directly using the black market as a scapegoat?

Dean, who still wants to inquire about the news, will definitely not think this is a good choice.

Therefore, he can only go to the chaotic civilian area.

Because in the whole city of Hosh, only here is more suitable: it is conducive to escape, concealment and other conditions.

And when Dean carried out his second 'inspection' around the civilian area, there were waves of footsteps in the distance, holding up torches, so that the leather armor of the Hosh city guards they were wearing was far away. It can be seen clearly from a long distance.

Similarly, Dean, who did not hide his whereabouts, was also clearly seen——

"Is it Lord Zelgon?"

The leader of the guards shouted loudly.

"Yes, you are?"

After Dean nodded, he asked knowingly.

"We are brought by Master Karl to find and assist you!"

The leader of the guards replied very respectfully.

Apparently, the news of the death of the 'slaughterer' was not concealed.

"Very good, the person I was following has entered here, you help me block it. There is only one person left, help me notify Mott and let him bring more people!"

Dean assigned without politeness.

And those guards acted quickly. Except for those who went to inform Mott, all the main entrances and exits of the civilian area were blocked.

Just five minutes later. Mott showed up with more people.

"it's here?"

Without greetings, Mott asked directly.

"Well, I have been chasing here, and then lost the other party's trace - the other party's speed is very fast, and he is very familiar with the terrain of Hosh City!"

Dean said with a dignified expression.

"No matter how fast it is, it's just a mouse!"

Mott said this, showing considerable confidence. Then, with a wave of the hand.

Immediately, a team of hundreds of people behind them began to enter the civilian area.

"Being able to kill the 'Slaughterer', Dean, your strength is really beyond my expectations, how about we fight?"

While the soldiers were searching, Mott said suddenly.

Seeing the scorching heat in Mott's eyes, Dean immediately knew what kind of person he had met, and couldn't help but smile wryly—the existence of such a combat madman. Not uncommon among knights, quite common even.

Especially in Xiti, that warlike atmosphere. It has spread from the royal family to the folk, and it has almost become a practice to speak with fists.

Although the overall atmosphere of Jadeite is not like this, some individual people are like this.

The most famous one is the head of the bodyguard of Grand Duke Jade, the 'Black Rose' who is as famous as the swordsman 'White Rose'.

Although the other party was a lady, her fighting style made many men who thought they were brave. They are all ashamed of themselves.

"I think you should go to the Lord 'Black Rose'!"

Dean, who was smiling wryly, said this.

Then. He immediately saw Mott in front of him, and his face changed. The whole person looks a little stiff.

"Well, it seems that you have looked for it before!"

Dean looked at Mott's appearance, and immediately knew what was going on - obviously, Mott, who was known as a "genius" when he was a teenager, was caught by the "black man" when he was traveling in the three southern counties. Rose' challenged, and the result of that battle is definitely something people don't want to recall.

"That was one of my worst memories!"

Mott replied like this, and then fell silent; not only did he not talk to Dean about the challenge, but he even lost interest in talking.

In this regard, Dean naturally wished for it.

He wasn't afraid of fighting, he just didn't want meaningless fighting.

But it is meaningless in Dean's view to fight just like sparring without the possibility of gaining xp.

Therefore, after Mott fell into the memory of suffering and lost interest in talking, Dean also remained silent, and the soldiers around the two of them naturally also could not speak, only the torches held high were crackling in the night wind 'Ring.

As for the soldiers searching in the distance, there were also waves of jumping noises.

However, although the movement was great, the harvest was not much.

Although two or three seemingly hidden organization strongholds were discovered, both Dean and Mott could tell that these were just some small organizations, or simply the outlying strongholds of certain organizations.

"Be taken down by these people, ask carefully!"

Mott did not give up. He glanced at the people who had been arrested from these hidden strongholds, and ordered him directly—although he knew that there would never be any valuable clues in the mouths of these people The lack of resistance of these people in the face of the guards is enough to explain everything; however, the same is also the reason why they can survive.

"Let's go, Lord Earl, you are still waiting for us!"

Mott, who was almost nothing, glanced at Dean, who was helpless, with a wry smile.

Dean didn't answer, just nodded - he needed an appropriate expression of regret, and a silent response was obviously the best.

Dean and Mott returned to the inner city of Horsh City.

Although nothing was found, the body of the "slaughterer" was the best thing for Earl Hosh. Therefore, the county king himself was a good man. He began to reward Dean wantonly.

Of course, because Dean was attacked before, this time the reward was included. There is also a sense of compensation.

Therefore, it seems particularly rich——

A magical item of considerable value!

【Ring of Fortitude】

【Type: Ring】

【Weight: 4g】

[Size: normal human category]

[Special effect: firm will]

[Strong Will: Bring +0.5 will bonus to the wearer]

[Description: This is the ring worn by a certain wizard when fighting against the Psion. It's just that he underestimated his opponent a little bit! 】

[Note: This is a good ring, but apart from a strong will, you still need a clear mind to judge and choose your opponent! 】

Just a +0.5 will, at least tens of thousands of Kimpton's attributes.

And Dean, who possesses [Dragon Sword Technique. Indomitable], this attribute will obviously increase even more.

therefore. After receiving the [Ring of Fortitude], Dean expressed his most sincere greetings to Earl Hosh.

As for excuses?

Let's not say that Dean would not do such a hypocritical thing that he clearly wanted, but pretended to be noble.

The etiquette among nobles alone made Dean unable to refuse.

Unless, he wants to turn against the county king.

After Dean accepted the ring, the body of the 'slaughterer' was carried out of the room, and after Mott confirmed again, Earl Horsh finally breathed a sigh of relief in a real sense.

The smiles on his face grew more and more.

but. The subsequent piece of news froze the smile on the Earl's face——

"My lord, the captain has been assassinated!"

Kesde, the captain of the first team of the Lion Mercenary Corps, said with a sad face.

"what?"

Earl Hosh's body shook. Mott, who was on the side, hurried to help.

"what happened?"

Earl Horsh, who was standing still, asked in a rapid tone.

"I, I don't know, I just went to check on the head's injury, but when I opened the door, I found that the head had died in his room!"

This rough man said everything he knew.

However, this obviously did not satisfy Earl Hosh.

The county king took two quick breaths. He directly ordered Mott beside him: "Help me to see the scene, I want to know what's going on!"

"Yes, my lord!"

Mott nodded, turned around and walked out.

Dean didn't stand up and say anything.

He is an outsider after all. If you are too enthusiastic at this time, it will only surprise people.

Therefore, they just invited Earl Hosh to their temporary residence and waited quietly for news.

And Kesde, the first captain of the lion mercenary group, also did not leave. After losing the captain, he seemed a little distraught, and just followed Earl Horsh.

And on the premise that Earl Hosh didn't say anything.

The people around him just let it go.

However, when this rough man looked at the body of the 'slaughterer', he let out a low exclamation——

"Is there someone here who was assassinated?"

The rough man asked subconsciously.

"Well, I met this guy in the room!"

Dean nodded and answered.

"Is it Lord Zelgon?"

The rough man was taken aback for a moment, and then, almost subconsciously, he said, "You and our regiment leader were assassinated together?"

As soon as such words came out, Earl Hosh and the archduke's swordsman were stunned.

"Could it be that the 'Slayer' failed to assassinate, but after being killed by Dean, his companion sought revenge?" The archduke's swordsman frowned, and then, looking at Earl Hosh, who had an ugly face for a moment, continued to ask Said: "Master Earl, do you want your family to go here? After all, the current situation..."

"Okay, okay!"

Before the Grand Duke Swordsman finished speaking, Earl Hosh nodded repeatedly.

Dean, on the other hand, watched everything calmly from beginning to end.

After all, isn't this the effect he needs?
