The tavern named Anfu Rose is located in the southeast of the imperial capital. It is not a large and popular place that can attract people in terms of location or content. However, as time goes by, people from all corners of the city
There are more and more customers.
Most of these guests are not here to spend money in this remote tavern. Duan Qing and others, who have been here for two days, are very aware of this.
"Hello, I am Butler Ralph from the Earl of Kerry's Mansion. You two are adventurers who are about to meet His Majesty the Emperor, right? Our Lord Earl is very interested in you two. I wonder if you can move to our mansion.
Meet our Lord..."
"I am Lord Reddick. I came to visit in person today just to meet the hero who dared to confront General Steele in the Castle of Thebilis! Hahahaha! What, are you interested in having a drink with me?"
"This is the third time that Duke Carter has sent people to find you. I believe that our Lord Duke has shown enough sincerity. If you are still stubborn and refuse to nod in agreement, we have to express regret.
, you are about to lose one of the most important imperial friends..."
"Who dared to reject the Luther family's invitation just now? Get out of the Noxus Chamber of Commerce! I will teach you a lesson on behalf of Boss Luther today and let you know who is in charge of you here.
, who are you? How dare you attack us? Do you know who we are? Do you know where this place is?"
"We do know where this is."
Sitting on the balcony of the third floor, Duan Qing, holding a cup of brown cocktail, looked down with a funny look on the gangsters and scoundrels who were being driven out by a group of tavern bouncers. The setting sun facing the gentle breeze also created a chaotic atmosphere coming from the foot of this place.
The feeling of being incompatible with each other did not make the people sitting here want to leave for a moment: "After getting along with each other for a period of time, I already have a new understanding of the capital of our empire. Although I am already here
After staying here for two days, I don’t know if I really like Redcar.”
"Well, of course it depends on whether you meet the moral character and qualities of an imperial noble gentleman." A middle-aged man dressed as an imperial nobleman sitting opposite him put down the wine glass in his hand and ignored him.
The smiling face that heard the scuffle coming from below then turned to the crimson sky above the tavern: "Based on my observation of you, you seem to have such potential."
"It's getting late, I'll take my leave first."
"Your name is... Bravo, right? Sorry."
With a faint smile on his face, Duan Qing stood up and stretched out his hand towards the person who wanted to say goodbye: "As you can see, there are too many people who want to find us during this time. We need
There are too many names to remember..."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Duke Victoria has already foreseen such a possibility." The middle-aged aristocrat who was turned into Bravo by Duan Qing bowed slightly forward and replied politely: "If it weren't for your Excellency, the Duke
I asked Lord Romlia in advance, but I’m afraid today’s meeting won’t be able to proceed normally, right?”
"We hope you will consider our proposal today."
He put away his aristocratic etiquette, and then retreated towards the back of the balcony where Duan Qing was. The gradually leaving figure also slowly disappeared at the end of the field of vision that the gray-robed magician had been watching, the door that had been open.
On the outside, he let out a long breath: "As expected of Tristan, at least this safety can be maintained."
"Your Excellency Robin may not look amazing, but the power under his command seems to be very powerful." Appearing in the shadows beside the balcony, the female swordsman named Xue Ling Huan Bing then sat down where she left just now.
The location of the imperial noble: "Even the Noxian Chamber of Commerce, which once drove you out of the town, was easily shut out by them."
"Although I don't know what level the so-called Noxus Chamber of Commerce can reach, it is obvious that they can't get enough of this place." Still sitting there holding the wine glass, Duan Qing's face was a little troubled.
Inexplicable smile: "As expected of the imperial capital, ordinary local snakes can't even touch the water here."
"I hope we won't drown together." Xue Ling Huan Bing shook her head and looked down at the surroundings: "Even if we can shut out all the people who come to visit, this is the end of our journey.
This is the eighth batch of guests we have received since arriving in the imperial capital. Such a complicated relationship is really a bit of a headache... huh."
"You guys are back?" She stopped her words, and at the same time cast her vigilant gaze in the direction of the door: "Where did you go wandering around again?"
"Tavern! Hotel! The center of feasting and feasting!" yelling excitedly, the player named Asahi Dongsheng walked into the room with his arms raised: "It is indeed the largest city in the free world, it is simply the place to be.
What’s the matter?”
"Don't make trouble, we are not here for tourism." He warned the other party in a low voice. Gedman, who also walked into this room, then also walked into the temporary residence of the adventure group: "Because I am afraid of being
Due to the relationship between human tracking, we did not go too far. The scope of the patrol was probably mainly around the area around Amphrit, including every corner that might pose a threat to us..."
"The results of it?"
"It's highly unlikely."
Shaking his head, the heavily armored warrior put down his heavy weapon and sat on a wooden chair in the room with a gasp: "Including those criss-crossing streets that look complicated and unusual, but in fact there has long been the possibility of an ambush.
All the places we clicked have been renovated.”
"After all, this is a city that has experienced power struggles for thousands of years. We have all dealt with these visible threats." Duan Qing also sighed: "And the area we are in is still nominally
It is also an area where nobles generally gather.”
"That's the Angelite family, right?" Xueling Huanbing, who was leaning in the corner, pointed up and down the tavern where she was: "Is that proprietress also a member of that family?"
"Shouldn't I ask you about this kind of thing?" Goldman looked at the other party with squinting eyes: "You, a person who has been in the local area, don't know about it, so how can we people know about it?"
"There are so many divisions in Redcar, how can I know the specific situation of each division?" Xue Ling Huan Bing replied with a cold expression: "What's more, it is a remote place like Angrit. If we don't have missions, we
Almost never come here..."
"Don't worry, we still have a little time to continue the investigation." Duan Qing hurriedly spoke out to reassure both parties: "Anyway, if this momentum continues, there should be no serious problems before tomorrow. Relying on Tristan and this
With the shelter of this tavern, we can probably survive until the moment we meet the emperor."
"The remaining problem is our attitude." His face became solemn, and at the same time he looked around at everyone present: "Everyone should be aware of everything that happened in the past two days, and everyone who can see it is aware of it.
Now that we have seen him, please share your thoughts on how we should deal with that Emperor."
"It's impossible to admit it. It's impossible to admit it in this life." Sitting on the ground in the center of the room, Asahi Dongsheng threw his giant ax aside: "Besides, we didn't do anything wrong at all. Even what happened
I still don’t know what it is…”
"The main problem is the fat man." Xueling Huanbing, who had never moved, also replied in a low voice: "If we ignore the incident in Tanzania City, our crime is mainly attached to Volavos himself.
As long as nothing happens to him, our problem will be solved."
"So the most important thing is the outcome of another trial?" Goldman spread his hands: "Then wouldn't it be easy for us to deal with it? Because"
"Most of the people who have come to visit us come with an attitude of supporting us."
He blinked and looked at the other players who were silent at the scene with strange eyes. The increasingly awkward atmosphere made the heavy-armored warrior's expression become a little overwhelmed, until one of the players spoke.
Then it gradually became silent: "You don't really think that what they told is the truth, do you?"
"The nobles of the empire are the oldest group of nobles on this continent. The fighting experience they have passed down may be much more than we imagined. Think of Tania in the Principality. Those so-called nobles... are probably very capable.
It’s not even as good as one-tenth of what it is here.”
"But, at least on the surface we still have the absolute initiative. At least we can use these people who want to overthrow the military and give the emperor some authority in exchange for some bargaining chips."
"Don't think that His Majesty the Emperor has compromised with his ministers on behalf of the Lion Emperor by personally receiving us."
In the scene of gradually arguing, Duan Qing was the first to point towards the distance of the balcony under the dusk: "What's more, these noble visitors we saw are actually just a group of nobles who came to visit us with good intentions.
Those guys with malicious intentions have long been blocked out by the door of the tavern downstairs."
"They are the ones who really want to intimidate us."
His eyes gradually became gloomy, and he stared at the person in front of him with a serious expression in thought. Then in the wordless silence that filled the air, he suddenly raised his head: "What is this?"
"Ah?" He put down the open wine bottle he was about to take to his mouth, and Asahi Dongsheng's arm also stopped in mid-air: "This is, uh, that... this is what I just said from downstairs.
I heard that it was a gift left here by Count Chakna, but you don’t want it, and neither does the proprietress...”
"I told you not to be so wasteful, okay?" After saying this, he looked back at Duan Qing's gaze with contempt: "You can't buy this kind of fine red wine in a tavern, even in the capital of the empire.
The place costs hundreds of gold for a bottle. We want to taste this kind of wine, which is no different from the consumption of luxury goods. Hey, what are you doing? Just tell me if you want it, and don’t grab it."
"Do you think we don't want such a gift because we are honest?" Duan Qing glared at the other party, took the red wine bottle into his hand, and then turned his serious eyes to the red glass surface: "Do you think this is really true?
A bottle of good red wine?”
"...Why, is there any problem?"
"You guys are rude."
Ignoring the eyes of several people, Duan Qing walked to the balcony and poured the opened bottle of red wine on the ground: "I am just a magician and alchemist, not a nanny who stares at you every day.
Also intellectually responsible.”
"Look at these wines, they are obviously extremely toxic." He pointed to the signs that the red wines were gradually foaming and rolling when exposed to the air, and then moved his fingers to Asahi Dongsheng's nose: "If you are like this
If you drink it in one gulp, we might be able to witness the spectacular scene of an explosion on the spot."
"This" face gradually became much uglier, and Asahi Dongsheng suddenly jumped up from the ground: "Those people actually dared to send poisoned wine? How dare they murder me like this?"
"Once hatred develops with NPCs, such a development is indeed possible." Gedman on the other side pinched his chin: "A place like the Imperial Capital cannot form street fights like other cities, so
They can only use this secret and ruthless trick."
"What a bastard!" So Asahi Dongsheng, who raised his voice, raised his arms and yelled: "When that Count Chakna comes again next time, let's see if I don't chop off his head with a knife!"
"What's the point of cutting him? I don't know who put the poison in this wine." Duan Qing looked at the other party with squinting eyes: "What if it's his men who don't like us, so he secretly created such a poison?"
What's the bad idea? What if other imperial nobles want to take advantage of this opportunity to blame that count?"
"If the free world really establishes an environment of intrigue and intrigue here in Redcar, the effect may be much more complicated than the millions of buildings in Redcar itself." He let out a cold snort and gradually stood up.
He raised his body and turned to the others present: "I can't always be by your side to remind you. It's impossible for anyone to do this, so you can only be careful yourself first."
"First of all, let's pay attention to your diet, and then what can and cannot be said in the communication and conversation around you. You must be mentally prepared."
Giving such a warning solemnly, he began to walk towards the door: "If you really can't bear it, you can go offline and hide for a while."
"where are you going?"
"Go offline and hide."
Amidst the questioning voice of Xue Ling Huan Bing coming from behind, his figure disappeared from another corner outside the door: "Suddenly I remembered something that needed to be dealt with."
"You can move freely for a while first."
