"Hey~ why are you so unlucky!" Jia Zhengjin sighed, took out a bottle of honey from the virtual backpack and handed it to Olivia.
"Thank you, Mr. Payton!" Olivia unscrewed the lid and took a bite, with a rare smile of joy on her face, "Delicious~"
After the silver-armored female cavalry Li Zhuo finished ravaging the female knight, she clapped her hands and walked to Jia Zhengjin, looking at him through the light of the torch: "Martin Payton! Why are you here? Could it be that those hateful thieves are actually...
Your subordinate? Are you really the leader of thieves?"
Upon hearing this, the smiles on the faces of the female knight Mixicoris and the female magician Lalanimon disappeared instantly, and were replaced by seriousness.
"Don't insult the noble Lord Payton!" Olivia raised her eyebrows, stood up and angrily shouted, "Those inferior beings have no such qualifications!"
"Then why are you in the den of thieves? And where have those thieves gone?" Li Zhuo asked with a frown.
"Why should I answer your question?" Olivia said coldly, "Are you qualified to do so?"
"Olivia!" Jia Zhengjin stopped her and took a step forward.
"Sir Payton, these people are so rude!" Olivia turned around and said.
Jia Zhengjin waved his hands hurriedly: "It's okay, it's okay! After all, they gave us a ride on the road before."
"Even so..."
"Okay Olivia, take a rest and recover first!"
"yes!"
After persuading Olivia to go back, Jia Zhengjin walked up to Li Zhuo: "By the way, why are you here? You're not really chasing me, are you?"
"Of course not, we did it because... No! I was the one who asked you first, right?" Li Zhuo realized mid-sentence, "Why are you here?"
"I was passing by here, so I just found a place to stay!" Jia Zhengjin said with a shrug.
"The West City of Mississippi is just ahead, why do you have to spend the night in the wilderness? And it's also a bandit's den?" Lidhuo frowned, "Is there any special reason?"
Jia Zhengjin sighed after hearing this, and turned to look at the female knight with a silly smile on her face, showing an expression of extreme disgust.
Following Jia Zhengjin's gaze, Li Zhuo and Lalanimon immediately understood, with some unnatural expressions on their faces. The female knight Misikris looked confused: "What's wrong?"
Li Zhuo shook her head and asked Jia Zhengjin, "Where are those thieves?"
"Kill them all without leaving any one behind!" Jia Zhengjin replied calmly, "There should be ashes outside the cave. Didn't you see it?"
"Oh..." Li Zhuo nodded.
Jia Zhengjin asked her: "What about you? If you come here in the middle of the night, you can't come here specifically to play games with robbers, right?"
"We are here to recover some stolen personal belongings for the countess!" Li Zhuo replied, "A few days ago, the countess's home was burgled by unknown persons and a lot of things were stolen. In the past two days, we have received threats again.
The letter asked the countess to hand over 5,000 gold coins. After our verification, the person who wrote the letter was the thief on this mountain. In order to relieve the countess of her worries, the three of us volunteered to come! The reason why we chose late at night was also
Considering that the robbers are less vigilant after sleeping, they can avoid unnecessary trouble. Although they are just trash, they might escape without paying attention during the day. If they can't get back the Countess's lost personal belongings, it will be very troublesome.
!”
"So, you were afraid that if you came in broad daylight and the robbers would find you and run away with your things, you attacked late at night?" Jia Zhengjin understood, "What about the other three?"
"Frey, Hardy, and Lis are all guests at the Earl's Mansion!" Lidro replied, "I originally planned to come alone, but the things stolen by the Countess are extremely important! That's why three people came at one time!"
"That's right! With the strength of our future divine mercenary group, just one of them is enough to sweep through this place!" Michikris said, spreading his hands.
Ah~ something very important to the Countess. Jia Zhengjin immediately understood it, it must be that love letter, right?
It was probably this love letter that the robber used to threaten the countess and ask her to redeem it with money? Thinking of this, he immediately asked: "So, you said before that this is the very important mercenary mission? You won't have to travel all the way to
Over here? Does the countess give you a lot of commission? "
"That's not true!" Lalanimon walked over and said softly, "The mission we accepted is to investigate the Blood Temple..."
"Lala!" Li Zhuo immediately reached out to interrupt.
"Ah!" Lalanimon reacted and immediately shut up.
Blood Temple? Jia Zhengjin was slightly startled. Isn’t that the organization of the vampire that attacked Holy Dragon City before?
"Anyway, our main mission this time is not this!" Li Zhuo said to him, "It's just that the Countess is someone Hardy knows, she seems to be a friend from the same hometown. And she is kind enough to let us live in the Earl's Mansion this time, and she will do her best.
We will provide you with local hospitality. So if she has trouble, we can help her if we can!"
"Oh~" Jia Zhengjin nodded slightly, "That's it! What happened to the Blood Temple?"
"This has nothing to do with you!" Li Zhuo shook her head and said, "If you join our future divine mercenary group, you will naturally know!"
"Impossible!" How could Jia Zhengjin join them? He was trying to avoid it.
"Then you don't have to keep asking. This is our mercenary group's own business!" Li Zhuo said seriously, "So, since you have eliminated all the robbers here, have you seen the things stolen by the countess?"
"How about we sit down and talk in the cave first?" Lalanimon suggested. "The mountain breeze is so cold at night. Let's find a warmer place to talk. By the way, is there wine in the cave? If you can drink while you're there,
Chatting at the same time, that would be the best!"
"Shut up! Don't even think about it until the important task is completed!" Li Zhuo said sternly at the moment, "But we can go to the cave and talk slowly. Martin Payton, what do you think?"
"I'm sorry!" Jia Zhengjin didn't want to get too involved with them, "I'm very sleepy now, so I want to go back to sleep right away. Let's do this! All the things are here with me, you can just take them back! Let's just say goodbye and it won't affect you.
You have done your job!"
While talking, he took out the stolen items found from the thief leader's treasure chest from his virtual backpack, and handed them over one by one: "Have a look and see if there are any missing items? Especially that letter, the content is quite interesting!"
"Have you seen it?" Li Zhuo's expression changed.
"Yeah!" Jia Zhengjin smiled and nodded.
"Please forget it immediately!" She snatched the stolen goods and said loudly to Jia Zhengjin.
Jia Zhengjin was a little surprised: "Do you know the content of the letter? Wow~ The countess is really generous~ She can say such things! Then why does she ask you to rob her?"
"Shut up! After all, she is Hardy's friend, and... and she also has her own reasons!" Li Zhuo looked at Jia Zhengjin and said, "As Hardy's companions, of course we must protect her body."
"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me!" Jia Zhengjin waved his hand, "I've given you the things, goodbye!"
"Won't you come with us into the West City of Mississippi? The Countess will definitely be grateful to you!" Li Zhuo said to him, "And the Earl's Mansion is definitely more comfortable than living here, right?"
"Sorry, goodbye!" Jia Zhengjin waved to see the guests off again. But he said secretly in his heart, I hope we will never see you again! I really can't stand you, especially the female knight! That guy is still staring at me like a slut, which makes me goose-skinned.
