Noble Emblem

226 Old Fox

Liang Lidong came to the slums again, but this time he came as an ordinary little nobleman. Because he didn’t have the external characteristics of a professional, many people looked at him with malicious eyes along the way.

Every class or region in the world has some xenophobia to a certain extent. Just as the nobles do not want mud-legged people to enter their rich areas, the poor will naturally not be happy when they see the nobles coming to their territory.

If a nobleman came with a loser, they would naturally not dare to say anything, but now there is actually a thin little nobleman who dares to come alone, and it is still late at night... The wilder people among the poor naturally have other ideas.

Liang Lidong felt those malicious glances, and he lit a lighting ball.

The incandescent light illuminates and drives away the darkness, and also destroys the minds of many people. After all, a nobleman who is also a part-time businessman has a status that ordinary civilians cannot offend. If the other party is very powerful, then their behavior will only bring trouble to the entire slum area.

Liang Lidong quickly found the Killer Guild... It has been a common practice for this organization to build its branches in slums, and this union has been open 24 hours a day for thousands of years. It can be called any organization among model workers.

It was the same scene of meeting guests in a small dark room, and Liang Lidong was no longer surprised.

The person sitting in front of him is a middle-aged man with his face covered. The reason why he is called middle-aged is because of his voice. However, the voice can be disguised. This is just a preliminary judgment.

"Dear guest, do you have any business with us?"

Liang Lidong pretended that he couldn't see anyone in the dark, his eyes unfocused: "I need some information."

"What information?"

"Information on the alliances between the major forces in the royal city, as well as the hostile relationships between them."

"We need your information. We have not seen you in the royal city."

Liang Lidong smiled and said, "I can't say."

"This is our rule." The masked middle-aged man explained gently: "This is our rule for thousands of years, and it cannot be broken because of you."

"There are no eternal rules in this world. Even gods fall." Liang Lidong took out a gold brick from his space backpack and threw it on the table: "This is my intelligence fee. Of course, I also You can throw out another piece, but I’m afraid you won’t dare to ask for it.”

The middle-aged man sighed, he really didn't dare to ask for more. Because one gold brick can be smelted into about a hundred gold coins, which is already a huge number. The entire killer branch’s net profit for a month may not be thirty gold coins. Smashing this one gold brick can make the entire branch comfortable. Live in submission for several months.

Moreover, the other party's ability to store space clearly told him that the other party was from the Colorless Magic Tower, as everyone knew. Only people in the Colorless Magic Tower can have a special portable space.

Rich, powerful, and powerful... Such people really can't afford to offend.

The middle-aged man changed the topic and said with a smile: "Your Excellency is right, there are no eternal rules in this world. I deeply believe that this sentence is very philosophical. You wait here for a moment, I will come when I go."

The middle-aged man took the gold brick away, and Liang Lidong waited in the small dark room for a while. It didn't take long, only about ten minutes. The middle-aged man came over with a stack of parchment and handed it to Liang Lidong.

Both parties are happy... Although the Killer Guild will make concessions on small matters, it rarely has problems with the bottom line on major matters. Liang Lidong can be sure that this information is absolutely true.

He returned to the hotel with a thick stack and slowly opened it.

This information is very detailed. The specific situations of all the major forces in the royal city and even the small forces are involved. Liang Lidong spent two hours and after reading it three times, he finally identified three families.

The first two families have direct relations with the eldest prince, and can actually be said to be iron-clad allies. One is the Atwood family. A traditional aristocrat whose clan has many powerful officials and has a wide network of contacts.

The other is a lord-type family. Its main force is on the eastern border of the Holaizhu Kingdom. It has a large number of elite soldiers and is the eldest prince's confidence. The current head of the family is the eldest prince's grandfather. His influence is not strong in the royal city. He just sent a few clan members to station here and collect information.

As for the third family, they are the arch-rivals of the eldest prince. They have had several direct disputes with the eldest prince, resulting in deaths and injuries. Their family has always been the king's cronies. The three ministers of finance were all served by members of this family. .

These three families have the right to enter the palace during emergencies.

Especially the third family, although they have had direct conflicts with the eldest prince, at times like this, it is easier for them to enter the palace.

Liang Lidong thought for a while, cast the secondary invisibility spell, and then jumped out of the window. The darkness gave him a strong cover, making it difficult for him to be discovered while walking around in the royal city.

Now the royal city is experiencing a storm. No matter when or where, there are eyesights from different forces paying attention to every plant, every tree, every insect and every bird nearby. Any behavior that doesn't seem right will arouse their vigilance. .

Liang Lidong encountered at least seven hidden stakes along the way, and two of them discovered him. Of course, the other party did not dare to do anything excessive, because these people who have lived in the dark for many years naturally know how to use secondary People who use the invisibility spell are definitely master-level spell casters. They don't dare to offend, and they can't afford to offend them without knowing whether they are friends or foes.

Liang Lidong quickly came to the north of the royal city. There was a large open space here. In fact, it was not quite correct to say it was open space. This land was bought by someone. Although there were no houses or facilities built on it, it was also very important to the people here. Plants and lawns have undergone some repairs.

In the royal city where every inch of land is precious, there are only two possibilities for owning such an open space but not taking care of it. One is that there is none, and the other is that one is too rich to care.

There was a stone path in the space. Liang Lidong walked over and saw a splendid manor from a distance.

He first hid in a small forest, used his mental power to condense some magic water, washed the hair dye off his head, then put on his magic robe, then released his mental power in waves, and then slowly walked towards The entrance to the manor.

I have to say that his style is simply too cool... With his master-level mental power, coupled with his high willpower growth, the circles of mental power can be seen with the naked eye. , looking at it in the dark, it's like waves of waves coming.

The private guards who were responsible for guarding the gate of the manor swallowed their saliva when they saw this scene. Then a soldier immediately ran to the side and rang the warning bell. Not long after, more than a hundred elite private guards blocked the way. When they arrived at the door, they were ready and did not dare to relax.

When Liang Lidong passed by, he could see that the first two rows of private guards were sweating heavily. Many of them were swallowing saliva and seemed quite nervous.

Standing at the front was a middle-aged man wearing gray armor. He was much calmer than the other private guards. When he saw Liang Lidong approaching, not only did he not retreat, but he even stepped forward to greet him.

"Dear Magician, this is the manor of the Morey family. May I ask why you came here late at night?"

Liang Lidong put away his mental power and aristocratic temperament. He smiled and said: "I came to see Husse Lei, the patriarch of the Morey family. I need to talk to him about something important."

The gray-armored middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he wasn't looking for trouble.

He first asked Liang Lidong to wait, and then immediately sent someone to inform the clan leader who had fallen asleep.

Hussere is over 60 years old. As an old man, sleeping is a very difficult thing because it is difficult to fall asleep. Even if he does fall asleep, he sleeps very lightly. Once he is woken up, it is difficult to sleep again. If he falls asleep but cannot sleep, he will be very tired and irritated the next day, so he hates others disturbing him when he is sleeping.

But this time, after hearing the report from his subordinates, his teeth were a little sore. There were master-level spell casters in the royal city, but they were all controlled by the royal family. Now a master-level spell caster came to his door at such a sensitive period. , which means more.

He got up quickly, got dressed, and asked for the guests to be brought up.

Liang Lidong only waited less than six minutes before getting permission to meet. This was still late at night. For an ordinary nobleman, it would be difficult to see Husserei at ordinary times, let alone meeting him late at night.

This is the benefit of being strong. Strength is the most practical pass regardless of identity and status.

Liang Lidong met Hou Sailei in the large study room on the second floor.

This study room is very simply decorated. Apart from some necessary furniture that is worth a lot of money and the books that are relatively expensive, there is nothing else to praise. There is not even an animal skin rug that the nobles particularly like.

Hussere is an old man who doesn't seem to be in good spirits. He has flowery hair and a somewhat hunched back. He only has one pair of eyes that look relatively bright.

But Liang Lidong didn't dare to underestimate this man. Now the eldest prince was about to take control of the royal city. As the eldest prince's mortal enemy, he could still sleep in such a situation, which showed that he had his own way of protecting himself.

There are two guards accompanying him, one is a spell caster. Although he has not reached the master level, judging from the fluctuation range of his mental power, he is fast.

The other person was obviously an agility professional. He was thin and looked frail, but Liang Lidong knew that this person had extremely fast speed and strong explosive ability.

At such a sensitive moment, for the sake of his own safety, Hussere always brings two of his close associates to protect him when meeting professionals.

"Who is your Excellency?" He looked at Liang Lidong and asked with some envy.

The older he was, the more he envied the vitality of young people. Looking at Liang Lidong, he seemed to see himself back then. With the same high-spirited spirit, he gets to know people, and wherever he goes, he is the center of everyone's attention.

"Beta, the companion of the little princess Emma, ​​is also the suspect of poisoning the king by the eldest prince."

When Hussere heard this, he was silent for a few seconds and then laughed: "I didn't see any suspects, I only saw a nephew I hadn't seen for a long time." (To be continued.)
