Mystery: Start with the Reader

Hearing the quotation of 200 pounds, the people in the secret room were very tempted. This money is enough to buy a Sequence 9 or even a Sequence 8 main material, and what they paid was only a piece of news.

It's not that no one wants to make up false information to cheat the money away, but those who think so look at Mr. Gaston who is sitting on the main seat, and think that among the many extraordinary items in this gentleman's hands, there must be identification information The true and false ability dispelled this idea.

The reason why Abner quoted such a high price was actually to attract the attention of the tall lady. It is easier to gain the other party's trust by letting her find him than finding her by himself.

Through reasoning and analysis, he came to the conclusion that the lady would seek revenge from the dragon eye python. However, the targeted weapons that the opponent exchanged at the party were obviously not satisfactory, and the fault tolerance rate was too low. Furthermore, she has gone through a failed adventure, and it may be difficult for her to come up with money to organize a new team at the moment.

At this time, a 'bad guy' who wanted to find the giant longan python and offered a big price could obviously get her attention and 'favor'.

Of course, this is also related to Abner's mentality of being a little bit of a drifter after earning 500 pounds. Before that, even if he wanted to put 'bait', he would never pay 200 pounds.

Sure enough, after a moment of silence in the secret room, the tall lady said in a low voice: "I have the exact clues of the longan python, but it's inconvenient to talk about it here!" Speaking of this, she looked at Gass in the main seat again. Mr. Dong, asked, "May I request a safe place to talk to this gentleman alone after the party?"

"It's a small matter!" Mr. Gaston nodded naturally, pretending not to recognize Abner, and asked him, "My friend, do you agree to communicate with this lady alone?"

Of course, Abner felt more at ease. With Mr. Gaston watching, if he wanted to, he would blackmail that lady and no one else would know. Of course, he would not do such a dishonorable thing, and Mr. Gaston would not condone it. As for Xio, with such a strong sense of justice, she might turn her face on the spot.

"I'm fine." Abner nodded to the tall lady.

After that, Xio proposed to buy the right palm of the 'Silver White War Bear', and the bid was quite high, but unfortunately no one answered...

Time passed by, and seeing that no one proposed a deal, Mr. Gaston announced the end of the party and began to arrange for people to leave one by one, trying to avoid unnecessary conflicts.

Half an hour later, apart from Gaston in the main seat, there were only three party members left in the secret room, namely Abner, Hugh, and the tall lady.

Mr. Gaston looked at the three of them, and deliberately imitated the old voice:

"Come with me, I'll take you to a safe place."

The tall lady frowned, and subconsciously glanced at Xio.

"This is my companion!" Abner explained upon seeing this.

Because of Abner's and Xio's similar attires, the tall lady obviously expected it, and nodded with a slight hesitation, acquiescing to Xio's existence.

Mr. Gaston led the three of them down from another secret exit of the secret room, turned several times in the middle, and finally came to a spacious underground cave, and then stopped.

"It seems that Mr. Gaston often dug holes under this town in order to find the dream door!" Abner teased in his heart, and asked the lady, "Now can we talk about the giant dragon eye?" Any information about the python?"

Seeing that Mr. Gaston had walked into another cave next to him avoiding suspicion, the lady said after organizing her words, "I know the specific whereabouts of the giant dragon eye python, and I can even give you detailed information...but I have a request, you must take me with you when you go to deal with it, and I want its python skin! For this, I can only charge you 100 pounds for information."

Whoring two revenge thugs for free and earning 100 pounds... This lady is really good at calculating! But who made this a seller's market? Abner had actually agreed in his heart,

But he still pretended to be hesitant. After hesitating for a long while, he agreed "begrudgingly" and said, "Yes, let's go to Mr. Gaston to 'notarize' it!"

"Wait!" The lady interrupted again at this time, "I still need to know your strength, that giant python is very dangerous, I don't want to die!"

"Why? You still have to verify it yourself?" Abner smiled and shook his head. According to "Gwen's Cave Adventure", this lady is just a Sequence 9, nothing else, just rely on his head Wearing the 'sea wind hat' can hang and beat the opponent.

"It's best to fight each other!" The lady felt the confidence in Abner's words, she clenched her fists and refused to flinch at all.

Xio stepped forward at this time and said, "Let me fight you a few times!" After she finished speaking, she sat down on the spot and took out the booster pads in the shoes, because this stuff was affecting her performance.

The lady looked at the girl whose face was covered in oil paint, but at most it only reached her chest, and kindly reminded: "I am a Sequence 9 'soldier', you have to be careful."

Xio stood up again, nodded, and said concisely: "The arbitrator."

Because it was a sparring session, both women didn't use weapons, so Xio took a step, and came to the left hand side of the female warrior at a very fast speed, lowered her body and hit the opponent's knee directly! Originally, this move was used to hit the ribs or the kidneys, but this female warrior is too tall, so she can only settle for the next best thing.

The female soldier didn't expect Xio to be so agile. Although she was a little flustered, she still made an effective response, raised her left leg to meet Xio's elbow, and wanted to kick her away directly.

But at this time, Xio seemed to have known that she would do that, and dodged the attack in a strange and awkward posture, but hit the opponent's lower abdomen with his elbow slightly upward.

Although the strength of this blow was not heavy, it was clear that the winner had already been decided.

"I lost!" The tall lady was not someone who couldn't afford to lose, she lowered her head and said in frustration.

After retreating for a while, Xio looked at the other party, thought for a while, and said, "You should have not systematically trained knights before. Although you have the skills and knowledge directly instilled by potions, your combat awareness is still far from that of regular knights. .Otherwise I won't win so easily."

"I didn't expect Xio to tell lies and never blink..." Abner understood from behind that the other party should indeed be from Yeluzi, but she has experienced many adventures. It is possible that she has poor fighting awareness, but absolutely It wasn't close to being almost instantly killed by Xio! Xio may have used the 'Ring of Prediction' in the previous attack to deter the opponent for a quick victory!

Whether it's the rushing speed that surpasses ordinary people, or the anticipation of the attack, and the exaggerated body twist when dodging, they all borrow the power of the 'clown'. Only the opponent's panic in the face of the assault may be due to the arbitrator's 'majesty' at work.

The lady in the "Warrior" sequence was only depressed for a moment, and then she adjusted herself. This time, she and Abner called Mr. Gaston to conduct a "contract notarization" and made a detailed and clear agreement. After clarifying the rights and obligations of both parties, he opened his mouth and said:

"The dragon's eye python is in the underground cave of a small island I explored before. The location of the island is more than 200 nautical miles southeast of Damir. It is a deserted island, and there are no ships navigable." Speaking of this, she took a look Abner said with some embarrassment, "I hope you can pay me 30 pounds in advance. I need to recruit sailors again... After the last adventure, because all the combat teams I formed were killed, the sailors who stayed on the ship were also scared." I lost my courage and refused to follow me."

She did not disclose the specific coordinates of the island immediately, in case Abner would leave her and find someone to do it alone.

"It turns out that you are still a captain..." Abner realized that without his own ship, he couldn't take risks everywhere.

"Yes, although my 'Allenheim' is just a small sailing boat outdated by the times, one day I will become a great adventurer like Ms. Edwina!" the tall man said. The lady said with longing.

"Since it has been 'notarized', there is no problem in advancing you 30 pounds." Abner took out three 10-pound banknotes and handed them to the other party, and asked casually, "Where shall we meet later?"

"At six o'clock in the evening the day after tomorrow, at the 'Stone Terrace' west of Damir." The tall lady replied after thinking about it.

...

After the tall lady came out of the underground cave with 30 pounds in cash, the three of Abner returned to the school dormitory.

After removing the disguise, Mr. Gaston said unhurriedly: "Although this lady has only been around Damir for about two weeks, she has a good reputation. Except for the accident last time, the people who have worked with her They are all satisfied with her."

At this time, Abner had already cleaned up the oil paint on his face, and changed back into his formal attire. He smiled and complimented: "With the effect of your 'notarization', even if she really has ideas, she will have some scruples."

"'Notarization' is not omnipotent. A demigod, even a part of Sequence 5, can resist its power." Mr. Gaston shook his head.

They were talking, and Xio also came out after cleaning up, but as soon as she appeared, Abner was stunned. He tried his best to control his face, so as not to make any rude expression.

"What's wrong?" Xio asked puzzled.

Abner didn't speak, but pulled her to a half-length mirror in the room.

Xio looked up, and his mind immediately went blank.

Because at this moment, Xio reflected in the mirror has a strange expression of squinting eyes and pursed lips on his face, which is exactly the replica of the "funny" in Abner's past life expression bag!

This is the negative effect of using the 'Ring of Prediction'. It was not obvious that the face was painted with oil just now, but now the 'true face' appeared after washing it clean.
