Chapter 41: Rude and news
On the road, there are mostly continuous convoys of merchants, and occasionally you can see the shadows of mercenaries that are not very public.
David’s house is located in the outer suburbs of Green City, some distance from the real bustling center. At that time, he also thought that there was no disturbance around him and the environment was quiet. And it is this silence that makes this the best shelter now.
The next task is no longer something that David can help. He only needs to do his business in the city with peace of mind, stand firm as soon as possible, and then provide some necessary help for Cassia and the others in a bright place.
Dangerous things have to rely on Cassia to complete them in the end, both of them have the softest part in their hearts. It is this feeling that makes them not allow themselves to be a devil who does not care for the lives of others. Like a fat uncle like David, they all have good feelings in their hearts, and he also has two lovely daughters.
And this trip had already been planned. Cassia went, pretending to be a butler of an aristocratic businessman, went to Green City to find those guys who were willing to provide information for money.
Dressing up is to expose one's identity in advance so as not to be targeted by people with the same purpose. There are too many new faces in Gerun Oasis, revealing the cards in his hand early, it is very likely to be out early.
The cobweb-like roads make transportation very convenient, and the intaglio-printed map is remembered abruptly in the memory after the Kassia surgery.
Although the task has always been in a vague state, everything is as clear as yesterday, but it will make people unable to proceed. It is like a detailed map, sometimes because it is too detailed to be useful.
Cassia was fortunate that neither of them around him were included in this list. This kind of jigsaw puzzle in the mist allowed him to learn more.
The place he is going to is the port area on the edge of Gelun City, where huge monsters made by the Imperial Steam Factory are parked. It is also a good place for countless poor people to seek opportunities and rations.
On the other side of Gerun Oasis, in the simple house, the windows are tightly sealed with thick black cloth, and the steam lamp above the head makes a "squeak" sound. Gustin and his party are also discussing their actions.
Gustin, their luck is very bad, really bad. There is no supply station on the established route that still stands on the yellow sand. Sandwolves regard them as great enemies, the sun opposes them, and the quicksand closely follows their footsteps. They are like a pair from start to finish. Invariably lovers usually cling to them closely and never intend to leave.
The eight people who went to the desert turned out to be five people around the round table. The same intaglio map was placed in the middle of the round table.
"Okay, let's start discussing the task." Gustin's words were deeply frustrated and exhausted. A trip to the desert that should have gone smoothly from the inside out completely changed his appearance.
"First of all," Gustin said, looking around the four people who were also tired in their eyes, "we don't have the most basic ammunition."
The remaining four sighed, their bullets were all consumed by Sand Wolf. Finally, I walked out of the desert to reach the oasis here, still relying on the stabbing sword and short dagger in his hand to fight me-to-hand, each of them was more or less scarred.
"Furthermore, the cost of the medicine has not yet been paid." This is Klitsch's voice, rough and dull, his strong body is wrapped with yellow gauze, it is the wound left by the sand wolf on his body that began to fester. trace.
The claws and teeth of the sand wolf are poisonous, which no one expected. The surgeons in the early stage of the first stage are not all-knowing and omnipotent monsters. They can draw their guns and blow the enemy's heads without hesitation. But this is just looking in the mirror, and the reverse result is the same. Their heads didn't turn into steel in the end, and hard hitting bullets would only become fragments flying in the air.
Besides, ordinary bullets can penetrate steel plates of several millimeters.
The five were silent for a while, and in the end only Gustin spoke.
"Today I also went to the Golden Bank. Starting from the day we were doing the task, our account, whether it was a private account in the past or now given by the military school, has been completely frozen. We can't get a point from it. money."
"It's really unfortunate news." Klitsch is not controlled by the pain, and now he is optimistic and joking. "It seems that the family hopes that we can rely on our own ability to exercise in the task."
"What about the other teams?"
This is an issue that everyone cares about. None of their schedules are very good, and now they have a feeling of seeking comfort.
"The current news is zero." Gustin was a little regretful. "You also know the current situation. There may be almost no contact by secret codes. We need to find other ways. But the current problem is our supply."
He glanced at the four people at the round table again, and his tone changed: "I think we might have to use a rude way to complete the task. Now the first thing, we have to go to the ground snake here to'borrow' something. ."
The eyes of the four people shine together, and the things that can be solved with their fists are of course the most popular with them.
Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Cassia had found the person he needed before entering the port. The fat man in front of him, whose face was already swollen, didn't look like a guy eating this bite of rice. On the contrary, he looked a bit like a dead fat man who came here for no reason and almost lied to drink.
He picked up the glass full of ale in front of him and drank it in one sip, and then he did not forget to ask for another glass from the bartender who was sitting idle at the counter.
"I'm telling you, young man in charge, I know all the news about errands in this area, and I am just like you, and I can barely count as their manager. You see, my fat body is not suitable for running around. No, nose The eyes have long been dragged down by the fat all over the body." He introduced himself by the name Feston and he burped, and the alcohol immediately filled him, but Cassia was also indifferent, just waiting for him quietly. Next words.
Feston was a little embarrassed. The wine the bartender delivered was only half of the drink and put it aside. Then he wiped his sweaty face and said, "I used to run errands. I can come to the port. It's you again. People dressed like this are generally our goals."
"No, no, customer!" Feston knew that he had missed his mouth, and quickly came round with a smile.
Cassia shook his head, saying that he didn't care about these things~www.readwn.com~ Let him continue.
"People in the port want to do these tasks. After all, it's easy. It's much better to get money than coolies. We also get together for the same tasks. After all, at least a dozen people are dispatched for each job. And because of my size, I retired. Now I am doing the same job as the girls outside the tavern attracting customers."
"You guys are also divided into different groups?"
"Of course, the money is quick and easy, as long as you have good eyes, fast legs and feet, and know how to hide yourself like a mouse in a ditch, everyone wants to come over and eat this bite of rice. And especially recently." Faith There was light in his little eyes.
"Are you testing me?" Cassia smiled with a face filled with white foundation, stiff like a frozen corpse.
"No, no." Feston was sweating behind his back, and he dared not say anything more. "Let's talk about business. Business matters. Your time is more valuable than mine."
"Let me introduce you to our business scope first." Feston suddenly became more distinctive.
Near dusk, when Feston drank seven consecutive glasses of ale before going to the toilet, everything had been negotiated by the two.
Cassia paid a quarter of the deposit, separated from Feston in the simple bar, and agreed to meet again here five days later to exchange what they needed.
When he thought that things were going on in such a simple way, and returned to his steam locomotive with a special little step in stewardship, there were already a few smiling people waiting for him~www. readwn.com~Book friends are welcome to visit and read.
