The bone of sin domain is king

Chapter 9, Scene [-]
Rosen didn't have much interest in Slack's indescribable encounter. He only wanted to track down the escaped assassin-like guy, but after some investigation, he couldn't find any trace of him.

"It seems that the other party also wants to survey the terrain in advance, and prepare to start recruiting tomorrow."

Rosen thought to himself, he searched the city for a while, but found nothing.

Thinking of inquiring more information, Rosen returned to the city square, his money bag filled with Slack's help, he circulated among several vendors, bought some, and at the same time, he basically figured out the situation. The general situation of the world.

Rosen is currently in the small country of Astor on the continent of Atlas. The kingdom of Astor, which has a long history, once fell in the past and was almost eaten away by the Federation of Wendland. Sri Lanka turned the tide and finally completed ZTE, which saved the country.

But now it is a hundred years later, the former heroes are gone, and the countries are also tending to communicate peacefully. People's eyes have shifted from the chaotic continent to the border of civilization - the Evernight Forest under the wall of the sky and the vast wasteland behind it. .

The so-called wall of the sky is actually a synonym for the huge storm group that runs through the entire continent for thousands of years. The Evernight Forest below it is full of dangers and opportunities, and the Bunajin where Rosen is now is located in the Evernight Forest. A small town on the edge.

Relying on the continuous stream of adventurers who went to the Forest of Eternal Night to seek opportunities, Bunajeon gradually prospered, and in the hands of this generation of city lord, Baron Ryan Ulysses, this prosperity reached an unprecedented peak.

As for tomorrow's recruitment meeting, the Ulysses family is preparing to gather elites and escort the eldest lady, Grandia Ulysses, to the Ultramarine Fortress deep in the Evernight Forest.

According to the information obtained by Rosen, a small-scale demon wave is coming, and Bunajen can only survive this terrible disaster by relying on the defensive circle of the Ultramarine Fortress left by the ancient sages in the forest.

To activate this magic circle, members of the Ulysses family need to come to the fortress in person, so Miss Grandia is the perfect candidate.

"In the poem a hundred years ago, the white knight Brando escorted Miss Antitina, the eldest daughter of the Ulysses family at that time, into the Forest of Eternal Night. It has been passed down as a good story.”

The thin young man said with great interest, his name is Ai Ou, he has been a mercenary for three years, and he can almost act alone with his own team.

"I think the white knight Brando chose to go deep into the Evernight Forest for the status of the Ulysses family. How can there be such a selfless knight in the world who would sacrifice his life for love and honor?"

The red-haired woman named Lina was not originally active in this area. She hurried over from a nearby town after hearing the news of the recruitment.

Rosen listened silently to the dispute between the two without saying a word, looking like a pensive knight.

After getting the information, many things don't seem to be as simple as they used to be.

For example, why Grandia Ulysses was hunted down by several mercenaries in the forest, and for example, the mission I received was to prevent Baron Ulysses from being assassinated. It seems that someone really wanted to completely defeat him. This family, Rosen thought, wondered if they knew that they had made enemies.

According to the mercenaries in front of them, only members of the Ulysses family can activate the defensive circle. If the plan of the black hand behind the scenes succeeds and Miss Grantia and Baron Ulysses both die, then there is no protection Under such circumstances, can Bunajen survive under the attack of the demon tide?

Rosen savored the cause and effect carefully, and felt that he seemed to have drawn some bad conclusions. He asked the two of them a few more irrelevant questions, and returned to the hotel when the sun was about to sink into the mountains.

The Dog and Whistle Hotel is full of guests at any time, and the proprietress seems to be able to deal with all kinds of guests with ease. When she sees Rosen push the door and enter, the smile on her face becomes stronger. point.

"Lord Rosen, you are back. I specially made delicious pork pies today, and they are still warm. I will send them upstairs for you."

Knowing that Rosen spent a lot of money, the proprietress naturally didn't save the energy to say hello, and smiled all over her face, as if she could squeeze out Rosen's full pocketbook by doing so.

"I said lady boss, why am I not treated like this?" "It's not fair, it's not fair!" "I want to eat pork pie too!"

A few guests joked, causing the proprietress to roll her eyes.

They knew what the proprietress was thinking. If they could earn a few more gold coins from the rich man in front of them, they might even be able to do it without the proprietress, so this little pork pie is really nothing .

"Thank you."

Rosen said indifferently, he glanced at the hall, but Slack did not appear, and at the same time there were a few new young faces in the corner, presumably they were young mercenaries who came here especially for their fame.

It seems that I have to participate in this recruitment event. No matter how bad it is, I will be guarded on the spot. Rosen guessed that the assassination will happen in this recruitment meeting in all likelihood. I have to be prepared for the mission.

Walking upstairs and pushing the door into his room, the first thing Rosen saw was the fragrant pork pie on the table.

The minced meat is mixed with some mushrooms, the cooked pie is thick and firm, and the broth exudes a tempting aroma. If it was in the past, Rosen would be eager to pick up a fork to eat.

However, he is a skeleton now, even if these smells are felt with his own perception ability, let alone tasting the delicious food, although he feels a little regretful, he still pushes the plate away casually, and takes out today's scent from his pocket. reward.

The gray and tough leather is suspected to be winter wolf. After processing, it should be made into a good leather armor.

One bottle of ecstasy water has already been used up, and the remaining bottle is kept as a spare—of course, Rosen will not be able to enjoy the benefits of this.

A few throwing knives made of fine iron are used to deal with enemies at a certain distance.

A dagger, quite sharp, able to pierce weak armor.

The original rusted long sword, Rosen tried to sharpen it to make it sharper, but ordinary whetstones could not remove the rust on it, so he had no choice but to give up.

Although the equipment on his body was not much, it was also complete. Rosen put these things back on his body, sat on the bed again, and waited quietly for the next day.
