The suddenly opened wooden door leaked in the noise that was isolated from the outside, causing the owner of the room to be dissatisfied. It seemed that with the noise outside, even the various foods on the table no longer tasted delicious, and the fine wine in the cup began to drain.
Faint pantothenic acid.
However, when he turned around and saw that the person he had been waiting for for a long time was the real master, his slightly tight brows immediately relaxed, and he put on a warm smile like spring, and kept saying hello: "Old Green, please
Drinking once is really a damn trouble! What? In the past two years, you have become the captain of the city defense brigade, and you don’t even bother to pay attention to us old guys? "
The person who entered the door was still wearing a leather uniform that he had no time to change out of. Hearing this, he looked towards the burly man in the room, but patted his uniform and said: "I received your message, and I came here just after I was laid off.
I didn't even have time to change my clothes, and those guys outside took the opportunity and insisted on buying me a drink... You are the same, we eat and drink by ourselves, why are you in Patna, a vampire's shop? Or are you saying that you have made a mistake recently?
You made a fortune and came here just to show off?"
The captain of the city defense brigade, who was called "Old Green", looked quite old. His hair on his temples was whitened by wind and frost, and his beard looked unkempt. However, the military uniform he wore that showed his position and status was quite impressive.
It's clean and obviously taken care of regularly.
Facing the old man who invited him to drink, Old Green was obviously very familiar with him. He sat down and drank a large glass of sparkling ale without saying a word. After letting out a big burp, he felt comfortable. Haha
Laughed loudly.
Seeing that Old Green did not treat him as an outsider, Draco felt a little relieved and gained some confidence in what he was going to talk about next...
When talking about things at the wine table, it's the same routine everywhere. When you get up, you're anxious to get down to business, so you're definitely going to be facing someone who is unreliable in doing things.
Instead of having fun with wine and having fun with the client, you just want to do your own thing and be happy? Most health care companies also have a basic foreplay of open back massage, right?
So in the elegant private room where silence was restored, Draco and Old Green exchanged glasses, and each other became a little tipsy. Then they used the strength of the wine to test: "...I said, Old Green...
Hiccup! You kid, you're so... so unreasonable! How many times have the old brothers greeted you? You always... always shirk... saying you're busy, so you're not afraid that if things go on like this, you'll be... all angry with the old brothers.
separated?"
After hearing Draco's complaint, Green paused for a moment with the wine glass in his hand, and then sighed helplessly: "Hey~~ you think I think so? It sounds nice to me, but what kind of city defense captain is this? But in the final analysis,
Aren't you just the stinky soldier leader running errands for the gentlemen above?
If I hadn't been lucky enough to accidentally save a young master, and then be promoted by a noble man, do you think that a weakling like me would have the ability to get a captain's position on his own?
Now that you have decided to be a dog for a big shot, how can you do the job of looking after the home and nursing home?
You also know that I actually don’t have much ability, so what can I do? Can’t I just spend more time and think more?
Just like this, I live in trepidation every day, for fear that if something goes wrong, someone will grab my pigtails and pull them down...
Brother~ It’s not that I don’t want to show off to my old brothers, but this time… ugh~~”
At the end of the sentence, I don't know if Old Green thought of some sad past events. After sighing, he raised his glass and drank again, as if he was planning to drown his sorrows with wine.
"Yes, yes, you are such a mouthful! How many of the dignified captains of the Standwick City Defense Brigade are there?
Speaking of which, you are also the 'master' in the eyes of countless idiots in this royal capital, and you actually made your life so miserable. If I didn't know what you are capable of, I would have almost let you lie to me.
go!
No, no, you have to drink as a fine! You have to drink~"
There was another back and forth during the dinner. After a while, Draco pretended to be casual and asked: "Speaking of which, no one has heard from you for a long time. How is it? Is there anything special happening in your army recently? You
I don’t know, but Bart and the others were making a bet two days ago about whether your boy might become a general in the future~
Haha~
If you can really get the reputation of a general, then our old guys’ faces will also be honored! After all, you are also a dignified old guy of a general, but can’t you speak louder than others?”
However, Green did not answer Draco's joke. He put down the large wine glass in his hand, but just looked at Draco with a weird smile on his face.
Seeing that Draco was about to lose the fake smile on his face, Green finally let him go, took two bites of the food and said: "Okay~ We have been an old man for many years, who doesn't know who he is?
None of us are meant to be nobles, so don't imitate them and talk in a roundabout way.
Tell me, what do you want to do with me?
Let’s talk about it first. I will never be vague with you if I can talk to you, but if you really can’t talk to me... I can only say sorry to you first~"
Seeing that the old Green was so naked, the smile on Draco's face really couldn't be stretched. After a slight hesitation, he moved closer to Green, even though the two of them were in a high-end tavern box with an anti-eavesdropping function.
, Draco still lowered his voice and said: "A while ago, there was a lot of talk about 'Instructor Geralt' in the city... Do you have any way to contact that person?"
After hearing what the old man said, Green glanced at him unexpectedly, thought for a moment, then smiled helplessly and said: "I knew that your glass of wine would not be so easy to drink..."
As for that one... I would say he is a very important person.
Even though he is just a temporary "instructor" serving as squadron leader, he has such a big background...
By the way, you probably have some idea of his identity and background, right?"
Seeing Draco nod, Green continued: "...the people who came out of that place seemed to be the same as us, but in the future they were all serious generals.
Unlike us, who can get into the position of squadron leader, and the rank of captain is highly incense, they all have their eyes set on generals. Those who are capable may not spend a few years after they are released.
When you meet everyone, you have to kneel down and salute, do you understand?
So, although that person doesn't seem to be anything special now, it's true that not everyone can talk to him...
If I want to say that I have a way, it must be to fool the fools outside. As for you, brother, I will give you an accurate answer - I advise you not to provoke others, after all, you can't tell when they sneeze in the future.
We don’t have much to live with, but if you do have any good ideas... I can try to pass the message on to you. After all, his guardhouse happens to be in my city.
But I definitely don’t dare to give you any guarantee. At most, I can only help you test it out..."
"Hey! If something goes wrong, why should we rely on my old brother?! I have always told others, Green, you are the most interesting person! Even if you become an official in this royal capital, you will never give it to us.
These old brothers use eye drops!
Right? That’s what I always say!
Brother, if you can help with our matter this time...I'll give you this number!!"
As he spoke, Draco looked like he was gritting his teeth. He stretched out his palm and made a big "five", but he didn't know what unit it was...
Facing Draco's "generousness", Old Green shook his head repeatedly and said: "Don't worry, don't worry, those are all things later. Can you tell me the specific thing first? You must never tell me about this.
If you are careless and it involves that person, if something goes wrong, my life will be at risk. If you don’t explain it clearly, I will definitely not get involved in it~"
"Hehe~ Look what you said! We have been brothers for so many years, can I still hurt you?
Come, come, drink, drink, let's drink and talk, drink and talk...
Actually, didn't I hear that the other party seemed to be recruiting troops?
In fact, I am not doing anything wrong.
Think about it, the two of us have been slowly getting better over the years, but aren't there some old brothers who are not getting along as well as they should? According to you, that one will most likely be a big shot in the future.
So I heard that the other party was recruiting some people, so I was wondering if I could find some way out for the old brothers!
After all, everyone is getting older, and mercenary blade money is really not that easy to earn.
Like Bart and the others, they even found a wife and had a baby outside the city. If they don't take advantage of this rare opportunity to run to a good place, are they really going to wait until they can no longer carry a knife before squatting on the road and becoming beggars?
So, don’t I just want to inquire about the details of the person who is recruiting..."
While Draco was holding Green and muttering in the secret room of the tavern, on the other side, in the supreme palace in Standwick City, in King Geffenhardt's private study, he was sitting alone under the quilt.
Under the dark curtain of night, facing the empty space with no one around him, he muttered to himself: "...after that, will there be any movement from that boy?"
Similarly, Ronis's voice came clearly: "Your Majesty, there is something really special these days... When Geralt was in contact with Feizat and other families, he suddenly expressed his desire to recruit some
Experts, second-level professionals are slightly stronger. There are not many professional requirements, but it is best if you can ride a horse. If not, then you mainly need some warriors and strong bodies..."
"VIP?"
King Geffenhart did not expect that Ronis would suddenly tell him such a piece of news...
In fact, the most fundamental purpose of asking Ronis to spy on Geralt was to find out whether the other person might be a "reincarnated person"!
No matter it's soul parasitism or any other method, at least Geralt, the "young man" seems to be in good health right now. If the other party is really the "rebirth" of an old monster, Geffenha
King Te will definitely not hesitate to mobilize the power of the entire kingdom to pry out any clue about "turning around" and "restoring youth" from the opponent's mouth!
For the now twilight King Geffenhart, after Catherine successfully married, the only thing he cared about was how long he could live...and whether he could live longer~
Although he has collected one or two seemingly feasible methods, according to Ronis' analysis, those methods are not worth implementing. Even if they succeed, it is hard to say what will come alive...
King Geffenhart was reluctantly persuaded by Rosni for the time being, but the fear of death in his heart became increasingly intense, and it was constantly devouring his only sanity.
And at this time, the appearance of "super genius" Geralt made King Geffenhart inevitably think of a certain possibility - of course, this is not to say that Geralt was in King Geffenhardt's case.
There is something wrong with him, but he simply doesn't believe that the other party is really just a "pure genius"...
After all, the other person’s age and achievements...
Especially before, there was a secret report from Edric, saying that Geralt had completed the final formula of the standard awakening potion...
An eighteen-year-old... or nineteen-year-old boy "single-handedly" completed the research and development of a series of new pharmaceuticals...
A grand master of pharmacy under twenty???
In particular, this so-called grand master of pharmacy can also forge iron and swords... He is also quite powerful... It is said that he also has some skills in military training???
Is this something a normal person can do???
Even if it was just like the rumors among the traffickers and lackeys in the royal capital, saying that the other party was a "genius that only happens once in a century"... King Geffenhart still couldn't help but sneer at such "evaluation"~
Because he knows very well that if "Geralt" really has no problems, then he can almost compete for the title of "ever"! The youngest pharmacy grand master in the Kingdom of Erathia!
Even if this scope were to spread to the entire Entagori continent, Geralt might be the youngest pharmacy master in the history of the entire continent...
In comparison, King Geffenhart really would rather believe that there is something wrong with "Geralt".
And...if this suspicion comes true, wouldn't that be the best thing for you?!
King Geffenhart looked forward to it so much that he did not hesitate to use Ronis's power and ordered him to monitor and check the opponent as much as possible, even if there was a one-thousandth chance...
King Geffenhart was trying his best to suppress himself and not make any irrational decisions due to impulse.
However, he did not expect that Ronis would suddenly bring him such a piece of inexplicable but indeed problematic information.
After all, if there is no special reason, the other party wants some people to do some ordinary things. Where can he not find people in the training camp or the Royal Guards?
There is even a group of young people with unknown origins under Geralt's command now, but he has not gone into it for the time being~
All in all, the other party already has about a hundred manpower at their disposal, but they still need more people???
For a time, the atmosphere in the king's study became more solemn...
