"Backlund deserves to be the capital. There are even so many assassination missions, but..." Triss flipped through the mission commissions in her hand, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly. Although she had already disguised herself at this time, the witch's potion digested it.
The charm that overflowed from behind still made the broker opposite her unable to help but glance at her.
Although Triss was disgusted with this kind of gaze, she was already used to it. She pretended not to notice the other person's eyes, casually put the booklet on the table and said:
"Is that all?"
"This lovely assassin lady, you should know that in our line of work, the most important thing is to be cautious. No matter how powerful you are, I can't give you an important task the first time. Of course, if you
Be your own person...well, you should know what I mean."
The broker rubbed his hands like flies. Of course Triss knew that the other person did not refer to one of her own as a "woman", but to join a certain force. However, she had no interest in such a thing and just picked up the booklet.
, and randomly clicked on one of the gangsters.
Although Triss has not harmed kind and innocent people, she is different now from before, not because of her conscience, but because she is now being watched by a certain great being.
Although I don’t really want to admit it, even though the dead cat has some bad taste, its character is still biased towards “kindness”. In this case, before truly understanding the “teachings” of that great being, it’s better not to be kind-hearted.
It is better for people to take action.
The broker glanced at Triss' chosen target and immediately smiled:
"Grizzly Jon, well, this is a tough one. Miss, you must be careful."
"You don't need to teach me how to do it." Triss took out a five-sulu coin from her pocket and threw it on the table.
Yes, you have to pay money - no matter where you take this kind of order, you need to pay a deposit.
"Here are the receipts and target information, please keep them."
The broker put away the money and immediately took out a small pile of information and handed it over. Triss took it and looked at it for a few times before hurriedly leaving the "pawn shop".
…
"Mrs. Melas's location..."
Just when Triss got up and headed to the East District, Klein was doing divination with a randomly picked tree branch. He originally planned to go to Mr. Melas's residence to stay, but he found that his thoughts were a little too much.
Simple——
Because rich people can take a taxi when they go out!
It's a good thing that he is an extraordinary person, otherwise he would have to be chased after just this one moment - who knows how much it would cost to hire a carriage to catch up!
Fortunately, although he has no underwear, as a clown who can completely digest the magic potion in a short time, Mr. Fool's divination ability has been qualitatively improved compared to his days as a fortune teller, although it cannot reach the level of "void divination".
"It's a calculation", but relying on the information in that document and the spiritual connection of just witnessing the other party getting into the car, a rough divination is still no problem.
Using a divination stick and a map, Klein walked up and down the unfamiliar streets of Backlund, and after twists and turns, he came to the area marked as the South District of the Bridge on the map. At this time, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
too much.
And when he saw the taxi leaving, he suddenly believed that Mrs. Melas had really cheated on her.
After all, when Backlund decided where to settle, the southern area of the bridge was not even included in his "optional residence range".
If we exclude the West Side, Queens District is due to public security conditions and living costs, the North District is because of St. Samuel's Church, the East District, the Dock District, and the Bridge District are due to poverty, then the South District of the Bridge is because of its considerable presence.
Low, it can even be said to be two worlds away from Backlund elsewhere.
The entire Backlund is divided into two parts by the Tasoke River. All the areas mentioned before are basically north of the bridge. There are developed transportation, huge flow of people, rows of factories and stock exchanges there, and the Tower
South of the Sauk River, there are only two areas: South Bridge District and St. George District.
Just like the difference between the old city and the new city in the "previous life", compared to the prosperity north of the Tasok River, the pace of life south of the Tasok River is quite slow. Transportation here is inconvenient. How to quickly get to the other side of the river?
There is only a subway, and there are no jobs such as factories. Further south, you can even see some small towns and farmland.
In Backlund, there are almost no nobles or rich people who are willing to live here. As for the working class... even if the rent here is not expensive, just considering the daily journey from the south area of the bridge to the factory area is enough to make them give up on living here.
Live here.
Both emotionally and logically, Mrs. Melas had no reason to come to a place like this. Since the other party got off the bus here, there must be something wrong.
He took out a coin from his pocket, and with the flip of his fingertips, the coin seemed to come to life. With a soft sound of "clang--", the coin was bounced into the air, and Klein's eyes,
It also became pitch black at this moment.
"Heads means affirmation, and there is danger." Klein put away the coin, hesitated slightly, and looked around to find a restaurant that could provide a restroom, but found that there was not even a cafe in this place...
…
Also relying on her divination ability, Triss quickly found Grizzly Jon, but she did not take action immediately because she discovered that this Jon was probably an Extraordinary!
"Damn! This is not a goal that can be solved with fifty pounds!" Although she had long known that there were many pitfalls in this kind of commission that was not limited to recipients, Triss still felt a little uncomfortable when she actually encountered it.
It's not that she can't deal with a wild Beyonder who is no more than Sequence 8, but she is worried about whether there is any organization behind this gangster!
After all, there are only a few ways for wild extraordinary people to obtain extraordinary abilities. They must either actively pursue them, be taught them, or acquire them accidentally. With the financial resources of a gangster, it is basically impossible to actively pursue them. Most people who acquire them accidentally have mental abnormalities, but
The grizzly bear in front of him showed no mental abnormality except for the Fusac people's trademark drunkenness and irritability.
Then he at least drank the correctly prepared magic potion, and may even have mastered a certain way of acting.
It is not difficult to kill a gangster, but it is not so cost-effective to provoke a mysterious organization.
However, if she failed to complete the first commission, it would be much more difficult for her to take on another mission. After thinking about it for a while, Triss decided to take action.
"In the worst case, go and join that dead cat!"
Triss gritted her teeth and activated her extraordinary ability to enter the invisible state. After using her anti-divination ability to eliminate all traces, she moved towards the strong man...
