Chapter 364: Evans is not a good bird when he first comes into contact with him
Zong Shen handed over the small wooden box containing the requiem grass.
"I met a traveling merchant named Picol on the way to Bosbon."
"They are trapped in a desert area where shark lizards roam."
"So I was entrusted with helping to bring this thing back."
His tone was very calm, and the armor on his body was stained with a lot of dust.
It certainly looks like a dusty person.
Since Zong Shen's face was obscured by his silver battle helmet, Evans' personal mercenaries were unable to derive any useful information from Zong Shen's expression.
After Zong Shen finished speaking, Luna on the side deliberately controlled the black panther to take a few steps towards the corner of the manor, deliberately lowering her sense of presence.
Using the cover of the shadows, she summoned an owl.
The owl was gently thrown to the fence by her, and stood silently.
Her movements were so subtle that none of the private mercenaries noticed her.
"Picol..."
"This box..."
The leading mercenary looked at the small wooden box carefully.
"This is Requiem Grass!"
"Go and inform Mr. Evans!"
"The Requiem Grass has been sent back."
He quickly reached out and took the small wooden box and handed it to the person behind him.
The door was opened again, this time not closed.
The mercenary quickly ran into the manor holding the small wooden box.
Standing at the steps of the mansion, he handed the small wooden box to a man dressed as a servant.
Then a man dressed as a butler came out, and the two whispered a few words.
The housekeeper walked into the house, seemingly asking for instructions.
After a while, a middle-aged man wearing a loose beige robe came out.
Behind him were the butler and several servants.
At the same time, a task completion prompt appeared in front of Zong Shen.
[Task: Help transport the Requiem Grass]
[Requirement: Deliver this batch of requiem grass to Evans’ manor within 5 hours and 49 minutes]
【Completed】
[Reward: Reputation 500, favorability of emerging nobleman Evans 20]
After the subtitle indicating the completion of this task, there will be a reminder to change the favorability level.
[The favorability of the emerging nobleman Evans towards you increases by 20 points, and the current favorability is 20 points (a casual acquaintance)]
This is probably what is called a preconceived impression.
In addition, Zong Shen's reputation value increased by 500 points, and the total reputation value became 14,900 points.
Judging from the current situation, these reputation points will not have any impact on the indigenous people.
It seems that there are requirements for reputation points when upgrading [Legion].
Silently dismissing the system subtitles in front of him, Zong Shen finally had the time to look at the middle-aged man in robes.
He has naturally curly hair, gray with a hint of brown.
This should be the so-called Lord Evans.
Belongs to the so-called emerging aristocratic force.
It was his fathers who robbed the manor that belonged to Mr. Mars.
Zong Shen was riding on Bajie, observing him through the gaps in his helmet.
Judging from the current situation, he seems to attach great importance to Requiem Grass.
I saw Evans's steps were vigorous and his figure was tall and toned. Every step made his loose robe cling to his body, fully exposing the outline of his muscles.
He always had a gentle smile on his face, and a neatly trimmed mustache around his lips.
If Zong Shen remembered correctly, Evans and Mr. Mars were the same age.
But the difference in temperament between the two is really not that big.
Mr. Mars's figure is like that of a middle-aged and fat nouveau riche.
But Evans is obviously different. He manages his figure very well.
Zong Shen was observing Evans on one side, and Evans, who was walking over on the other side, was also observing him.
Even though the two sides were still one to two hundred meters apart, he could still tell that the armor and equipment on Zong Shen were of high quality.
And the woman riding the black panther is obviously a night elf.
The lancers behind him are from the famous Immortal Knights.
He has a sharp eye and rich experience, and he already has a conclusion in his mind after just a few glances.
The opponent's background is not small, and his strength is also very strong!
At least the sixty private mercenaries in their own manor are definitely no match for them!
After coming to the conclusion, the smile on Evans' face became even bigger.
He walked quickly to Bajie, raised his head slightly and nodded to Zong Shen.
Zong Shen also nodded slightly, but he still had no intention of getting off his mount.
Evans was not angry, but Zong Shen's arrogant behavior made him feel that his guess was right.
"Thank you for helping Picol bring these requiem plants back."
"Without the sleeping potion soup made from these requiem herbs, I wouldn't be able to sleep at all."
"It's a pity that these requiem plants are not common."
"They are called the smiles of the dead, and they are only born in front of the graves of new dead people."
"And not all dead people have this growing on their graves."
Evans said to himself and began to introduce the function and origin of Requiem Grass.
"I would be honored to be able to help you."
"It's just a piece of cake for me."
Zong Shen said lightly, his tone was very calm.
Evans was secretly shocked when he heard what Zong Shen said.
Although he didn't know what happened to Picol and the others that delayed their trip and failed to pass through the desert area in time before dark.
But he knew that anyone who could forcefully pass through the desert area at night was definitely a ruthless character.
The group of hungry shark lizard beasts will attack all travelers or wild beasts passing through the desert area.
Even the capital city was helpless, as the cost of eradication was too high.
But the mysterious boar rider in front of him was able to break through the desert area so easily.
If we take a detour, the time will not match up. It will take at least three hours more to go around the desert area.
There weren't many traces of battle on their bodies, but they were stained with a lot of dust.
Evans decided at that moment that he must establish a relationship with Zong Shen.
He turned around and extended his right hand to the butler.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The butler took out a bulging money bag from his arms and handed it to Evans's hand.
Evans took the money bag and held it up with both hands towards Zong Shen.
"Anyway, you did me a big favor."
"Here are 3,000 continental common dinars. I hope you won't find it too little."
His posture was very low, which surprised the mercenaries around him.
Only the butler behind Evans remained calm.
Facing the money bag that Evans offered with both hands, Zong Shen waved his hand.
"Your Excellency is too kind."
"There is no need for this reward."
"I have something to do when I come to Bosibon this time, so I'll take my leave first."
Zong Shen directly tried to play hard to get, testing Evans's reaction.
If Evans doesn't take the bait, then he will find an opportunity tomorrow to sneak into the manor by other means.
In his opinion, the strength of those private mercenaries is no more than this.
Although he cannot compare with Evans in terms of living standards, in terms of combat effectiveness, Zong Shen can basically walk around the city now.
Seeing Zong Shen riding a pig and about to leave, Evans quickly stopped in front of Bajie.
"Since you are unwilling to accept payment."
"Then at noon tomorrow, I would like to invite you and your subordinates to have lunch together."
"The location is in my manor."
"In the past two days, a batch of seafood from Elaraya Port has just arrived at the manor."
"All are kept in the frost cold storage..."
"I also ask that you honor me so that I can perform some of my duties as a landlord."
Evans enthusiastically extended an invitation to Zong Shen.
Zong Shen pretended to be thinking and tilted his head.
Then he nodded.
"Since you insist on inviting me."
"Then we will come on time for the appointment at noon tomorrow."
When Evans heard this, he nodded with a smile on his face.
"Then I won't disturb you anymore."
"If you need help with anything in Bossbonne, just come to me."
He patted his chest and said confidently.
Zong Shen did not answer, but nodded slightly.
"let's go."
He waved his hand, turned around, and left Evans' manor.
In place, Evans stood at the door and watched them leave.
The smile on his face disappeared instantly.
He turned around and said to the butler behind him.
"Isidor, send a smarter scout to follow them."
"There have been more and more mysterious forces active in the city recently."
"I don't know where these illegal armed forces came from."
"Look at that beautiful night elf riding a black panther."
"I can tell just by looking into her eyes how coquettish she will be in bed..."
"And the one behind him is also a rare elf beauty..."
Evans licked his lips, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and showed an evil smile.
Although elves are rare in today's human territory, you can still see some in some giant cities.
Especially in some powerful organizations that run prostitution businesses, elven women are top-quality goods.
Just one night costs 1,000 to 1,500 mainland dinars.
Compared with simple human trafficking, this is a hugely profitable business, and you only need to pick up customers dozens of times to get your money back.
However, this business also carries great risks. The Elf Eyes lurking in the giant human cities will never allow their own people to be defiled.
They will attack prostitution organizations and rescue their companions.
Generally, only powerful prostitution organizations have high-quality elven women.
Evans was fortunate enough to enjoy several visits to the Moulin Rouge in the great city of Lentax.
The skin of elven women is more delicate than that of human women.
There is also a faint fragrance of nature on the body, which is because of its natural affinity.
The taste is so wonderful that it can make any man forget to leave.
So even if Vereesa and Luna were simply disguised, he could still tell them apart.
However, these guys in front of me really look difficult to deal with, so it’s better to get in touch with them first.
Find out the details and explore their origins.
Recently, a lot of mysterious forces have come to Bosbon, and these guys are always followed by some weird warriors.
Their etiquette is very poor, and they don't treat nobles with due respect.
Evans had noticed them and sent people to follow them.
He discovered many illegal armed settlements dozens of kilometers away.
This situation was very suspicious. Based on the above, he guessed that Zong Shen also belonged to this type of mysterious force that appeared inexplicably.
That damn Immortal Knights is active in the west of the continent, and this is the east of the continent!
Although the Immortal Knights are quite famous, it is impossible for them to travel across such a vast area to the eastern part of the continent!
Evans was very sure about this and did not act rashly because he knew that the other party was very powerful.
In a head-to-head encounter, unless they rely on the help of the state army, their own men alone are no match for them.
When the butler behind him heard this, he immediately bowed and blew a whistle.
In the shadows on the side, several sneaking figures slowly emerged.
"Go, follow them."
As the order was given, one of the figures entered the stealth state again.
He quickly followed Zong Shen and the others in the direction they left.
Only then did Evans turn around and walk into the manor.
The thick carved iron door was immediately closed, and the door shaft made a heavy friction sound.
"Isidore, tonight's batch of requiem."
"Let our dear pharmacist put more thought into this."
"Half of it is boiled into sleeping potion soup, and the other half is made into requiem powder."
The butler saluted again and took his instructions to heart.
No one noticed that an owl stood silently on the fence and peered at them.
A street away from Evans Manor, Zong Shen was riding Bajie and leading a squad of lancers towards the central area.
According to the navigation of the strategy module, Baron Bezos is in the central area of Bangcheng.
As night fell, the streets around them became quiet.
Occasionally, you can see groups of patrolling Bangcheng troops passing by.
These state soldiers looked at them with vigilant eyes.
Even after Zong Shen walked for a while, they were followed directly by a group of state troops.
He followed them not far away, but seemed to be very wary of them.
Zong Shen ignored this and just went on his way silently.
At this time, Luna rode a black panther and came to the position side by side with Zong Shen.
With some worry in her eyebrows, she spoke softly to Zong Shen.
"Sir, there was something wrong with Evans just now."
That owl is the "sentinel" left by Luna.
It transmitted everything Evans said to Luna through a mind link.
But Zong Shen just nodded and remained calm.
"I can probably guess what he's thinking."
"Steal the estate of Mr. Mars's father from what his father's father could forcibly plunder."
"I knew this Evans was definitely not a good bird."
"We won't talk about it here until we settle down tonight."
Zong Shen had already made plans in his mind.
He didn't care about his pursuers, nor the group of soldiers following him.
After passing through the last quiet street, they arrived at the central area of Bangcheng.
From a distance, you can see a large castle standing in the central area!
