Rebirth of the Viking King

Chapter 218 5.10 Fire Rally (3)

"I" need you to help "me" hide someone.

Nefertiti, who was on the keel, was sure that her ears had heard correctly. If the first task, "Looking for the Imperial Seal", was the task assigned by the Archbishop of Susa.

Then this second mission should be the "Herald of Flame"'s own private work.

She pricked up her ears and continued to eavesdrop.

"This time when I enter Storm's End, I come with a special mission. I need to secretly help a patriarch remove a meat ticket!"

"But as we all know, it's late winter now, and the seas around Scandinavia are all frozen! I wanted to evacuate by boat, but all the waterways have been blocked."

"It is impossible to stay outdoors in the winter here. In desperation, I can only ask a helper to help me keep this 'meat ticket' until next spring."

"When the time comes, I will immediately organize people to transport him away."

Meat ticket is a slang term in the street, usually referring to the target of kidnapping. After saying this, the gang members looked at each other for a moment.

First of all, as a Viking, "living alone" was almost impossible. Especially in the late winter when the cold wind is raging. In the event of a real snowstorm, under the extremely cold temperatures, all the residents in the city would even have to go into Storm's End to escape the heavy snow.

In extreme cases, even livestock have to be pulled into the house, otherwise they will freeze to death in the shack even if they have thick fur.

Anyone forced to stay at home will freeze to death indoors, with no chance of survival.

Secondly, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is a private mission issued by the "Herald of Fire", and he has not yet said what the reward is.

Everyone is waiting for the chips from his mouth

"Do me this favor, and you will receive 200 'dinar' gold coins immediately! As long as the spring meat ticket is still alive next year, you will receive an additional 200 gold coins as a final payment!"

Not only that, as long as we can complete the connection in the spring, all fire-passing gang members among the fire-passing priest leaders will receive 20 gold coins!

Hearing this, everyone present could not help but feel excited.

**

From the moment this man spoke until now, Sophie has been guessing his identity. But as a 'student' who needs to go to church every day, she has too few opportunities to contact the outside world.

In this case, she doesn't recognize many people in this city

What's more, even in winter, the sea may be frozen and ships may not be able to leave the port, but many hunters in Scandinavia are accustomed to traveling in winter. Although the neighboring Dragon's Breath Plateau and Frostfree Ridge provinces have been reduced to ruins, several cities in the river valley are still alive.

There are also many hunters who brave the wind and snow to come to the market to seek deals every day.

From the limited information, Nefertiti can temporarily conclude two points:

1. This person is eager to get rid of the meat ticket from his hands. For this reason, he even did not hesitate to spend a huge amount of money such as 200 gold coins immediately to find a successor.

2. This person will not stay in Storm's End for a long time.

It is very likely that he will disappear after getting rid of the meat ticket and return next spring to redeem his people.

(It can be inferred from reading between the lines that his meat ticket must be a hot potato!)

(Very hot to the touch!)

So the question is, who could this person be?

Almost all members of the fire-passing gang expressed their excitement, but only the fire-passing sacrifice "fish in the abyss" looked at the flame herald cautiously through his mask.

Post a private mission in "Gathering of Fire". This is against the rules, and everyone in the Fire Chuan Gang understands this.

However, in the Fire Transferring Sacrificial Site hidden in the dark place, this kind of thing has not never happened. Under normal circumstances, the task publisher will communicate with the fire priest in advance. Both parties confirm what the "goods" are, and the fire priest will announce it on their behalf.

This way, it will be much safer.

But this time, the Flame Herald actually bypassed him and issued the mission to the members of the Fire Herald without permission.

This forced him to question the dangers of "meat tickets".

"Excuse me, sir, what is the identity of Meupiao, and what kind of living condition is he in?"

"Abyss Fish" asked this question cautiously, because he highly doubted that the "meat ticket" mentioned by the Flame Herald was not a human being.

And his answer really confirmed his thoughts.

"Haha." He laughed dryly, and the flame herald waved his hand, "You don't have to worry about this. This is a living dead that does not need to be eaten or moved. It can be stored like a corpse. You can treat it as an object when storing it. Place it randomly in a box.

"It must not be a difficult task for such a person to store it for four months! Accept the task and you can receive the reward now." As he said that, he once again motioned to the servant behind him to take out a heavy money bag from his shoulder bag.

The money bag containing 200 gold coins was very heavy. The money bag hit the ground, and the yellow gold coins rolled down to the ground, attracting the attention of almost everyone in the venue.

"I can try, but I am not short of money. Can the herald give me some other rewards?"

The person who spoke had a strong French accent. Unlike Aunt "Lampshade", he had never disclosed his identity to the public. "Fish in the Deep" only knows that he is a businessman who "seems" to be from France.

But this is most likely just a cover-up for him in the "Fire Transfer Sacrifice".

The members of the Fire Chuan Gang in the "Fire Chuan Sacrificial Site" will not "treat each other with sincerity" at all. "Fish in the Deep" knew that he was not really a Slavic, he just deliberately put on a Slavic accent when he spoke.

This time, his true identity was hidden to a great extent to prevent him from being exposed to the outside world.

Agreed, "Aunt Lampshade" may not really be a washerwoman, and this guy with a French accent may not be a real French person.

"As everyone knows, I am a businessman. I have many stores under my name, and I have as many as seven warehouses. If it is just a corpse and is stuffed into the box underground, even I may not be able to find it."

"This can't be done, the 'meat ticket' cannot be suppressed." The flame herald replied calmly.

"Leave this task to me!"

The person who said this had an extremely hoarse voice.

"My identity is the gravedigger of Storm's End! When ordinary people encounter birth, old age, illness and death, I am the old man who is responsible for burning the corpses and digging the graves for burial!"

"Placing such a corpse here with me will not arouse too much suspicion from others. So I think it is safest for me to take over this task. As for the gold coins, 200 will be taken out and distributed to all the brothers in the field, and the other 200, Could you please bring me the son who is a mercenary in Constantinople?"

"I don't have much time left, old man, and I no longer need this money. But he can use these gold coins to redeem his life with his employer as soon as possible, and he can also return to Storm's End to enjoy his old age."
