Shameless Warlock

In fact, Xu Nan didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing at first. His original plan was to find the place where humans gather first, then follow the system tasks, quickly brush up the level and bloodline ability, and occasionally download a copy of Paradise Lost. Improve your strength before merging with the general world.

However, the plan cannot keep up with the changes.

The strength of the black knight is far beyond him, unless he is willing to use the hole card of Paradise Lost, otherwise he has to obediently obey the opponent's arrangement.

"Then, since we are willing to reach a cooperation, we are partners."

The black knight took off his helmet silently, revealing a rather delicate face, but unfortunately there was a scar on the left side, and there were dense stitches around it, making him look a little hideous and terrifying.

"I'm Gray, a high-ranking mercenary, and I live everywhere. I'm currently entrusted by the lord of Quicksand to escort his second daughter to Wildfire City to assume the position of city lord."

Xu Nan nodded: "I am..."

The name Xiaocheng Song hadn't been exported yet, but Gray stopped him:

"No matter what your name was before, you are now a nobleman of Quicksand. Your name is Su. If someone calls you Miss Su, you have to reprimand him viciously and correct him to call him Mister."

"The Quicksand Land is the buffer zone between the hinterland of the Eastern Kingdom and the Great Northeast Ice Field. It is the most affluent territory in the Kingdom. I will give you a quicksand map and information about the Mel family in a moment. You need to memorize it."

"After entering Wildfire City, you need to be careful everywhere. After three to five weeks, you can get out with peace of mind."

Under the light of the bonfire, Gray explained his plan in detail.

...

He was entrusted by the local lord in Quicksand. As a well-known high-level mercenary in the north, Gray was one of the few high-level professionals who was willing to accept the escort mission.

The background of the story is a bit complicated. Generally speaking, Su, the second daughter of the lord of the Quicksand Land, got a token by chance.

Such a token is said to make her the lord of Wildfire City.

In the quicksand land, she was a different kind of person. She often made the territory restless, and it was said that she was a bullying character... In short, the lord of the quicksand land sent her away like a plague god.

Accompanying her were some family guards who escorted Miss Su to her post safely.

But on the way, they were killed.

In the end only Gray was left.

Along the way, they encountered five ambushes, each more ruthless than the last. Gray once persuaded Su not to go to Wildfire City; During an ambush, Gray was pinned down by a high-level enemy adventurer, and the two got separated.

Without Gray's protection, Su's death was bound to happen sooner or later.

In this way, Gray's escort mission will be regarded as a failure.

As a high-level mercenary, Gray has a conscience; but he also cherishes his own reputation.

He had to consider his own interests, after Su's death, he had to find a way to stop the loss.

The task of Quicksand Land is to let myself escort the second lady to take up the post. As long as I send the person, I will complete the task; as for the second lady to run away from home afterwards, it is none of my business.

With this in mind, Gray accidentally discovered that Xu Nan and Su were very similar, so he had a plan to impersonate.

...

"The servants in Quicksand are all dead, and the people in Wildfire City only have Su's portrait in their hands. They will definitely not recognize you."

Gray explained: "I will hand over the Golden Dragon Token to you as soon as it is done. You may even have a chance to make a fortune in Wildfire City, and then disappear quietly before the second group of people from Quicksand arrives in Wildfire City. "

"And according to my observations in Quicksand, the lord is very troubled by this second daughter, and he is not even willing to take care of her life, so there is nothing wrong with our plan."

What he said made sense.

Xu Nan sneered in his heart.

There is no problem?

No problem, this Miss Su who likes to disguise herself as a man will die in the snow? The body was turned over by that licking dog?

Now that the attacker killed Su, he would naturally retreat.

But what about after he entered Wildfire City?

Why did someone want to kill Su?

What kind of place is Wildfire City?

What is the so-called token?

All this is unknown!

Gray said it nicely, but he actually used Xu Nan as a tool to push him to the front. Anyway, he can make a lot of money himself.

Sure enough, it would be naive to expect any kindness from mercenaries.

Xu Nan thought about it. Anyway, his current personality is set as a cynical youth, and some Gray would think that he would be easy to control.

So he jumped up and said:

"This is impossible! You didn't say that there were so many ambushes before!"

"You haven't figured out who killed that woman. If I pretend to be her, will the person who wants to kill her continue to hunt me down?"

Gray took a deep look at him:

"As for the ambusher, I already have a clue, most of them are local forces in Wildfire City."

"This place has been in chaos for a long time, and there has been no city lord for many years. Of course, they don't want to suddenly parachute a city lord and take away their interests."

"But you can rest assured, first, I will protect you; second, once they enter Wildfire City, they will not dare to mess around. After all, no one dares to publicly assassinate the nobles of the kingdom in the city."

"As for the tokens... You go and bring all of Su's relics with you, and you will gain something in the end. If it doesn't work, I'll find a way for you when I get to Wildfire City!"

Xu Nan couldn't help but hehe in his heart.

According to Gray, Wildfire City has always been a land without an owner; a few months ago, Su accidentally obtained a token, and only with this token can he become the owner of Wildfire City.

Now that Su is dead, it proves that the ambushers have succeeded, and they will definitely take away the token.

Going to Wildfire City by yourself, without a token, how can you be the city lord?

This guy just wanted to trick himself into Wildfire City, and then slap his ass and leave!

However, after listening to it for a long time, he also had some interest in Wildfire City, so it seemed good to take this opportunity to go and have a look.

"One hundred Golden Dragon Tokens, I want cash."

Xu Nan acted as if he would not go without paying.

He was sure that Gray would not dare to touch him, because he wanted something from him.

In order to get the reward from Quicksand, this guy even managed to replace the civet cat with the prince, so how could he change his mind because of a young man's offense?

What's more, Gray is obviously very confident in his own martial power. He is a second-level warlock, and he is an inescapable role in his eyes. Giving him the Golden Dragon Token in advance is just a change of money for a pocket bag. That's all.

"Maybe, he will kill people to silence him afterward."

Xu Nan secretly thought.

Sure enough, Gray was silent for a long time, and said slowly:

"good."

Beside the bonfire, two people with their own ulterior motives reached a fragile agreement.

...

Not long after, the two embarked on the journey to Wildfire City.

Along the way, Xu Nan not only had to recite the materials of Quicksand and imitate Su's behavior, but also listened to Gray's introduction of the rumors about Wildfire City.

Losing the Apocalypse Warlock's specialty [Photographic Memory], he really looks a bit powerless.

After all, these foreign nobles have too much knowledge.

Gray was obviously also worried about this, and while riding his horse, he turned around and asked worriedly:

"Can you remember?"

"no problem!"

Xu Nan touched the book crumbs in his mouth, and patted his chest to ensure that he would not lose the chain.

After [Gluttony True Colors] is activated, all the information about Quicksand is in my mind.

Next, listen to the story of Wildfire City.

Wildfire City, a city-state hanging in the northeast of the Eastern Kingdom. In name, it belongs to the Kingdom of Rhine, but in fact, since the death of the founder, Sir Barton, there has been no leader here for a long time.

The Kingdom once sent seven or eight administrative officials to be city lords, but they all died quickly. The public said that the weather was too cold and the climate was not acclimatized...the capital had nothing to do about it.

In recent years, the Kingdom of the Rhineland has been suffering from frictions with the countries in the west. Many people have even suggested giving up the enclave Snowfield City and Ice Wind Territory in the northwest; where is the mind to manage this savage city in the northeast? Woolen cloth?

The residents of Wildfire City are mainly the people from the Icefields of the North, and this place is known to the outside world as "the folk customs are simple and the roads do not pick up things".

Insiders in the kingdom explained this: Wildfire City is indeed a simple and honest folklore. If you see a wallet on the ground in the city, someone must be setting it up. Anyone who dares to bend down to pick it up will lose their entire family and property, or expose their corpse to the drain...

The chaos inside Wildfire City can be seen.

The forces of several Icefield families headed by the Sebalon family control all the lifelines of Wildfire City.

In other words, in Wildfire City, these rebellious Iceborne people have the final say.

...

"Can I get my money back now?"

After listening to the description, Xu Nan pretended to be scared.

Gray said very easily: "Your current identity is the second lady of Quicksand, and you are very famous in the entire Eastern Kingdom. They dare not harm you easily, otherwise they will attract elite soldiers from Quicksand. Ice Plains people look It seems reckless, but it's actually very cunning, as long as you don't provoke them."

"Remember, you are only here to be the city lord, don't compete with the people of the ice field."

"Wildfire City is coming soon, are you ready?"

Gray said seriously.

Not far away, a huge city wall made of boulders has appeared, with Wildfire City written crookedly on it.

The two rode to the foot of the city wall. The people coming and going around the city gate are sparse, but all of them look strong and powerful.

Gray made a wink, and Xu Nan immediately shouted angrily:

"Why didn't people from the Sebalon family come to welcome me?"

"I am the new City Lord of Wildfire City, Su Tumel!"

"Get out of the way, you civilians!"

The people in the ice field who were entering and exiting the city gate one after another were stunned for a moment. The guard who was about to come forward heard this, and suddenly stepped back a few steps, found a short man in plain clothes, and whispered a few words.

"Wildfire City has no city lord."

"There used to be, but there won't be anymore."

A young Iceman walked past Xu Nan with disdain, and pointed the spear in his hand at them provocatively:

"Also, you shouted too lightly, sissy..."
