Chapter 1256 Fear
"My lord, something is wrong." While walking into the city lord's mansion, Dramo reminded Li Huailin in a low voice.
"I can see it." Li Huailin said, "Under normal circumstances, even if the city lord here is sick and can't get up, he will ask someone to carry him out to see me. Now he just asks me to go in...however you look at it, it's not right, you pay attention At this point, it is probably a Hongmen banquet." Li Huailin said.
"My lord, I understand, but what is the Hongmen Banquet?" Drummer asked.
"The story is too long to be bothered to explain, anyway, as long as you can understand the meaning."
"Yes, my lord." Delamo here did understand what Li Huailin meant, and nodded.
Soon following the guard, Li Huailin came to the inside of the City Lord's Mansion. It seemed that the City Lord's Mansion here was a little empty. In fact, Li Huailin had noticed many strange things, because the entire City Lord's Mansion actually had a maid I can't see anything like that, but the number of guards is a bit too much, and the most important thing is that these guards haven't come to welcome Li Huailin, but just stand on guard at the original position. Tsukuru can't see it, let's continue to see what's going on.
The guard took Li Huailin all the way to the second floor, probably the office of the city lord. As soon as he entered the door, Li Huailin saw the city lord, Viscount Mordec, who was sitting behind the desk. He looked close to 40 years old. He is quite kind, and doesn't feel like a treacherous person.
"My lord duke. Ahem... I'm sorry... I'm very sorry... I fell ill suddenly, I'm really... rude." Mordec's speech here was a little strange, and it sounded like he was acting.
"My lord. There is someone in the next room." Delamo reminded Li Huailin very alertly.
"Oh?" Li Huailin nodded slightly, "How many people are there?"
"A dozen or so," Drummer said.
"Yeah." Li Huailin nodded again, and then turned to Viscount Mordecke, "It's okay, I'm sick, it's normal."
"Thank you... Thank you, Your Excellency Duke." Modec immediately bowed down, "May I ask what is your Lord Duke's visit this time..."
"Oh. My friend here received a mission. He said he was going to hand over a box to you, the city lord. Then he asked the guards at the gate and they said they didn't have this mission, and they didn't know what was going on. "Li Huailin pointed to the side, and Haitianlan here also took out the box containing the secret treasure. "This is the box, City Master, please see if this thing is the task you assigned."
"Huh?" Mordec was taken aback for a moment, then looked at the box in Hai Tianlan's hand, "This... I don't seem to have assigned such a task before..."
With a sound of "boom", just as Mordec on the side finished speaking, there was a soft sound from the side, and everyone turned around immediately.
"What's wrong?" Li Huailin turned to look at the door where the sound came from and asked, "Is there someone next door?"
"Yes... it's my wife." Viscount Mordec on the side thought for a while and said immediately, "I'm not going away yet. I'm receiving His Excellency the Duke."
"Oh." Li Hualin continued to nod as if he didn't know anything.
"That's right, that's right, I remembered." Mordec shouted suddenly. As if to divert Li Huailin's attention, "I remembered, there is such a task, I have never assigned such a task, by the way, but it seems to be a long time ago. I almost didn't remember it."
"There is really such a mission." Li Huailin nodded, "That's fine. What is the reward for this mission, take it out and see."
"Huh? Rewards?" Mordec was taken aback for a moment, "Uh... that... oh, I remembered, I put the rewards in the treasury,
I'm going to get it right now. "
After speaking, Mordec on this side stood up directly, and then immediately walked towards the next room.
"Pfft." Drummer couldn't help laughing, "This guy even said he was sick. It doesn't look like that at all."
"There is something wrong." Hai Tianlan also said, "This guy is a bit strange, is he going to fight soon? This task is at least an AA-level task, so reward me directly if it's not that simple Bar."
"I'll talk about it later." Li Huailin said, as if he didn't know anything now. "
"Listen to you, anyway, I'm the one you hired now." Hai Tianlan said.
"Shall I take a look over there?" Delamo asked, pointing to the next room.
"No, just play slowly, I just want to know what's going on with him." Li Huailin said, "This is very important."
"Yes, my lord." Delamo nodded.
After waiting for a while, Viscount Mordec came back again. It seemed that the other party's head was sweating a lot, and he looked even more nervous. Two soldiers came back with him, carrying two boxes.
"Your Excellency the Duke has been waiting for a long time, this is the reward." While speaking, Mordecke signaled the two guards to put the box on the table. Hai Tianlan also went up to take a look. The box on the other side was gold coins, about 500 On the other side is a piece of equipment, but it's not very good, golden.
"That's it." Li Huailin nodded, "But... I have a little question, why do you want to assign a task to get this thing back for you, City Master?"
"This... this..." Mordec turned his eyes slightly, "By the way, this was originally my property, but it was stolen, so I sent people to look for it, and anyone who found it would give me the money." He rewards."
"Oh, so." Li Huailin nodded, "But according to what my friend said, he got this thing from a person who was seriously injured and dying, and then...the other party asked him to send this thing back..."
"Yes! This seriously injured man is the dead soldier I sent out to find this thing for me. Why is he already dead? This... This is really unexpected, I actually lost a general." Viscount Mordecke still looked a little sad.
"Oh, so, one of your generals went out to find the box and didn't come back for several months, and then you can forget about this mission..." Li Huailin said.
"This... this... I don't have a good memory recently." Mordec said quickly.
"Oh, that's right, it makes sense." Li Huailin nodded, actually agreeing.
"Then..." Mordec on the side called out luck, and was going to pick up the box while talking.
"Wait, city lord, I'm suddenly curious." Li Huailin suddenly stopped Viscount Mordecke, and then asked, "I'm a little curious about what kind of treasure is in this box, I'm really curious, I don't know the city lord Can you tell me what's inside?"
"What's inside?" Viscount Mordecke was obviously taken aback, and then... stuck.
"Oh?" Li Huailin hesitated for a moment, "City Master, you don't even forget what you lost, right? You just said it was a very important thing."
"This... this..." Mordec was sweating profusely, "this... Your Excellency the Duke... I..."
"You should know who I am." Li Huailin smiled suddenly, "You should have heard about me, too. There are already two dukes who died in my hands. You... don't think I'm not Dare to move you."
"Duke... Lord Duke... I..." Viscount Mordecke here is really anxious, as if he wanted to say something to Li Huailin, but he couldn't speak in a hurry. At this moment, there was a sudden "dong" from the side door "With a loud noise, a black shadow flew out from the side door and flew directly towards Li Huailin and Viscount Mordecke.
"Dramo!" Li Huailin shouted casually.
"I've been prepared for a long time... Well!" Of course, Delamo here has already prepared, and has been staring at the side door here. The moment he saw the black shadow coming out, Delamo here had Pushed up, but something completely unexpected happened. Delamo, who was fully prepared, punched the black shadow here, and then both of them flew back, and the black shadow here directly He backed up a dozen steps and knocked back all the people who were about to go out, but Drummer was even more exaggerated, directly hitting the wall behind, and hitting a huge hole.
"Damn!" Li Huailin was taken aback for a moment, Dramo was already one of the best men under his command, basically he and Bruno were considered to be the highest combat power, but the person who jumped out here was actually stronger than Dramo To be stronger, Li Huailin looked directly at the opponent, and it turned out... he saw a big man wearing full armor and his face was covered with cloth, and the opponent's name could not be seen, it may be blocked by equipment similar to the player effect, but it is obvious that the opponent is not a player, but a player.
"Lord Duke, save me!" Viscount Mordec on the side suddenly crawled to Li Huailin's feet, hugged Li Huailin's feet and said, "This group of people is a rebellious party. They threaten me to control me. It's been a long time, I was forced by them."
"Oh?" Li Huailin nodded, he understood the weird situation, the Viscount Mordec over here didn't have the courage to fight against him, and this guy in front of him was not.
"My lord, be careful!" Delamo here also suffered a little underestimating the enemy, but he was not seriously injured. He stood on the ground a little bit, got up and stood in front of Li Huailin again.
With a bang, the door of the office opened, and several guards with weapons rushed in.
"Your Excellency, these are not my subordinates, they are all theirs." Viscount Mordec shouted again.
"I can see it all." Li Huailin finished speaking and looked at Hai Tianlan and Drummer next to him, "Prepare to clear the field."
