Advent of the Archmage Chapter 56: Unexpected encounter (1/3)


Hegu Town ’s casino is a two-storey log cabin on the northwest side. It is arguably the most prosperous place in Hegu Town. It is said that the owner of the casino is the nephew of the Mayor of Hegu Town. Fight for gold, but the militia never comes in trouble.

After entering the casino, Jacques and Glidan stand on both sides of Link, protecting him in the middle.

There are many people in the casino. Most of them are red-eyed gamblers. There is also a well-dressed and hot-selling female dealer in front of each table. In each key position of the casino, she is physically strong. Guard.

Here are prostitutes, pickpockets, scammers, veterans, and educators.

After entering the casino, Yake looked around and walked towards a table in the corner.

As he walked, he introduced Link: "Sir, see the little yellow-haired man. His name is Jimmy. It is said that he can send messages to syndicates."

This is the ability of Jacques and others. They used to be at the bottom of the society and knew the twists and turns of the bottom. This is what Link lacks.

Linke looked over. This little Jimmy didn't go to the poker table, but looked at the gambling table. His hands and feet were not very clean. When Link walked over this time, the guy's hand reached in. Two gambler's pockets.

This guy doesn't steal too much. A person steals a few coins, and his hand speed is very fast. Like a dragonfly, he can finish the crime at once. Several people around him don't feel a bit.

"This is a steal," Link said softly.

"It's a thief, but Syndicate is a thief," Gridan continued.

During the talk, the three came to Jimmy. Jimmy felt wrong and wanted to walk away, but Yake and Glidan stood to the left and right and blocked his retreat silently.

"What do you want to do? Tell you, I'm not easy to mess with." Jimmy swallowed, braced his chest, and touched his pocket with his other hand, where a dagger was hidden.

But as soon as he moved his hand, Glidan raised his hand and cut it with a knife. Lightning was generally on Jimmy's wrist.

This is a heavy one. Jimmy's wrists trembled and a snorting sound in his mouth. The other hand hurriedly grabbed his wrists. His hand could not move temporarily.

Linke then stepped forward, and the crescent moon wand he made into a stick appearance was on Jimmy's chest. The tip of the stick had a slightly invisible magical light looming: "I heard you can deliver a message to Syndicate? "

Lin's voice is very light. It did not cause any waves in the hustle and bustle of the casino. The movements of the three were also very secret. Several guards looked around, but when they saw no major conflict, they looked back.

Small conflicts abound in casinos. They can't manage everything, as long as they don't make things big.

Jimmy's feelings are different. He can feel an indescribable breath on his chest, some cold and some pain. Coupled with the faint magic light, he immediately knew that he had met a magician and he was scared. Broken, my body trembled, and my voice trembled. "Yes, yes, I can talk."

"Then you immediately take a word and say that something is with me. If the woman is dead or there is a scar on her body, then they never want to get it. Remember, my name is Link, I am a magician I live in the hotel in Hegu Town! "Link's voice was very low, his eyes were as cold as ice. When he spoke, he slightly released his control of the magic energy in his body, and the air around his body was affected. There are air ripples visible to the naked eye, just like a rolling heat wave.

He now has nearly a hundred magical powers, and it's already full. This is already the level of an ordinary level 2 magician. At this time, it appears that it is a bit scary and scares ordinary people. That's enough.

Where did Jimmy Huang have endured such a battle, he immediately nodded frantically: "I will bring the words to you, no, I will go now!"

Linke converges, then gently touches Jimmy's chest with the magic wand in his hand, secretly using a mage's hand. The power of magic penetrates the muscles and ribs on Jimmy's chest, gently pinching him in the chest. Beating heart.

Jimmy felt a slight stagnation in his heart. This feeling of being pinched by his hands was too scary. He was sweating like rain and couldn't move his body.

"Don't lie, be fast, otherwise, the magic I planted in your heart will blow up your heart!" Then, Link took back the mage's hand.

The trick of the mage's hand is very useful to scare ordinary people who do n’t understand magic. Of course, if it is a powerful warrior, this trick is useless because the magic power contained in the trick is too weak. Extending into their bodies will be blocked by their power.

Jimmy is going crazy. As soon as Link let go of him, he ran away and said, "I'm going to spread your message now."

Okay, all you can do is wait.

Linke said to Jacques and Glidan: "Let's go, let's go to River Valley Inn and wait for Syndicates to contact us."

He knew that the behind-the-scenes force attached great importance to the demonized rune, and this rune was placed in the crystal pendant by Link, and it would not leak the slightest breath, so the other party could not find him.

Since they ca n’t find it, Link has put down such a threatening word. In all likelihood, they dare not act rashly. The sensible way is to send someone to contact them.

This way, Lucy's life can be saved to the greatest extent.

What to do next depends on the message from the syndicate.

When the three were out of the casino, while on the road, Linke said to Jacques and Glidan: "I know you have doubts in your heart, right?"

Yak paused, and then asked, "Sir, we want to know what Syndicate really wants?"

From the conversation between Link and Jimmy just now, he can feel that Link knows what the other party really wants, and this is most likely not a gold coin.

Gridan has the same doubts.

Linke also didn't conceal it: "Remember the dark crystal that Witt was carrying? It has a formal title, called Demon Rune. I guess they came for this thing."

"Sir, can this thing be given to them?" Jacques asked deliberately.

Lin Ke shook his head very surely, Dayi said utterly: "Absolutely not. This is a very evil magical instrument, I have sealed it. If this thing is given to them, it will give the entire Gwente Forest, Even the Norton kingdom brings bad luck. By that time, very terrible things will happen, and it may even destroy the entire Gwinter Forest. By then, none of us can escape. "

This is all true. It ’s not a lie. There was an accident at the Academy of Magic. The magic elite lost more than half of its power, which later made it impossible to fight against the Dark Elves. The Gwente Forest was burned into ruins. At the beginning of all this, it was this demonization. Runes.

When they heard that this might cause such a terrible disaster, Jacques and Gridan stopped silent. They didn't know why this happened, but they believed that Link would never lie to them.

Linke's face showed a slight smile: "How are you, Jacques, Gridan, do you feel the power of power?"

With your strength, you can do things that ordinary people ca n’t do. These things you do will attract the attention of people who are just as powerful as you, so you will face stronger and scarier opponents. , Naturally it is even more dangerous.

For example, the annihilation of the Brotherhood of Darkness. If they rely solely on the Flamingo Mercenary Squad, they should not say that the Brotherhood of Darkness will be annihilated. Even Witt cannot be killed. Maybe one accidentally will be killed. They will not be killed. It is impossible to touch the demonized runes, and there is no subsequent danger.

But now things are different.

Yake understands what Link means, and he smiles: "Master, all people are going to die, it depends on how they die. Being able to fight and die with the strong man who overlooked me before is not a waste of life. . "

Gridan clenched his bow: "Sir, this is the fate of a mercenary."

Linke smiled, and he did read the right person: "It's not so bad, but it's just a division of Syndicate. We can destroy the Brotherhood of Darkness, and we can also kill Demon Witt, Syndicate. It's nothing to hide from stealing! "

To be honest, Syndicate is a bit tricky. The first tricky part is to worry about Lucy's life. The second tricky part is Syndicate's power throughout the human world, even if Gwent ’s branch in the forest is destroyed. The trouble is endless.

It doesn't matter that he won't be in trouble when he enters the Academy of Magic in the future, but Yak and others will be in trouble. Link is very sorry. He feels that he needs to think of some measures to reduce his followers. The risks faced.

But how to do this, Link has no idea for the time being.

‘Forget it, do n’t think about it, there must be a road to the front of the mountain. Take a step to see what to do next. Save Lucy first. ‘Linke has reconciled all his worries about the future, focusing only on the moment.

On the other side, seeing Link say that, Yake and Gridan are also relieved. Link is their backbone and the most powerful force. Since he is confident, they just have to follow him and go all the way.

At this moment, Link heard the neat sound of horseshoes behind him, and when he looked back, he saw a beautiful carriage driving far away.

The carriage is pulled by four precious pure blood Coromas. The carriage is made of solid iron ebony. Miscellaneous runes are inlaid in many places. At first glance, it is blessed with defensive magic.

This carriage is several times better than the one Elite is sitting on!

"I don't know which big man came." Link and others gave way aside early. As a nobleman, he knew very well the decent things that show the noblemanship.

Such a carriage is worth at least 2,000 gold coins. His cheap father, Hamilton. Molini also has a carriage, but the carriage is only worth 300 gold coins, which is several grades worse than the one in front of him.

Hegu Town is very close to Wang, and the scenery is beautiful. Often capital cities come to take a vacation, and it is normal for such a carriage to appear.

However, his mind is all about saving people now. He has no intention to pay attention to these big men who have no contact with him.

But he didn't notice that when the carriage passed by them, the figure flashed behind the carriage, and after a while, the carriage stopped.

A knight following the wagon came to the window and seemed to be listening. Then the knight turned his head and walked towards the three of Link.

Yak and Greendan were a bit surprised, and clenched their weapons instinctively. Link was also a bit surprised, but he was not flustered, pressing his hand gently to calm the emotions of the two mercenaries. He whispered: . "

After speaking, he greeted him.

The knight soon arrived in front of Link, and shouted condescendingly, "Young man, report your name."

Linke didn't answer immediately. He looked closely at the knight in front of him. The other party was wearing carved silver plate armor, wearing a blue shirt, and a roaring male lion printed on the chest. chapter.

In Norton Kingdom, the roaring lion represents Norton's royal Abel family.

In other words, this knight is a noble kingdom knight, and the big man in the carriage should be a member of a royal family.

Linker doesn't know why the other person asked his name, but still replied, "My name is Linke Molene, and Viscount Hamilton is my father."

He said his aristocratic surname. In the communication with the aristocracy, showing his aristocratic identity can put himself in a relatively equal position with the other party and be able to communicate better.

Sure enough, he said so, the knight saw a lot of contempt in his eyes, almost at the same time, in the carriage not far away, there was a soft panic.

The voice is very light, but it's very familiar. How Link's memory is abnormal. At a glance, I know the identity of the man in the carriage. It is Anne Abel, the only daughter of the Duke of Iron, and the niece of King Lane.

Isn't she supposed to be at Greenstone? How did it appear in River Valley?
