"You mean... this is a conspiracy against me?" The corners of the witch's mouth curled up slightly, revealing a playful smile.
"Maybe, maybe not. No one can be sure until this guy is found. I suggest that you better say hello to the parliament and inform your allies to prepare for it. Maybe the war has already begun..."
When he said this, Kars's eyes flashed with undisguised excitement and anticipation, as if he was looking forward to the scene of blood flowing into rivers in his heart.
"Very good! If the war has already begun, then let us use the enemy's hand to get rid of the little bitch Cassandra first. She has been secretly against me. Inform the werewolves who have sworn allegiance to me, We will launch an attack on Cassandra's territory from tomorrow, let us see who can take the lead in this chaos." Catherine gave the order while licking her seductive red lips.
Without further ado, Kars immediately bent down and bowed deeply: "As you wish, my supreme mistress. Oh, yes, Zhang also told me that the demon he encountered called himself Boruen, you You can ask someone to help you look up the application records, although I don’t think this will be the real name of the devil, but maybe we can get some unexpected clues.”
Catherine nodded slightly: "Okay, I got it. It seems that my little wizard is still very useful, isn't it? Don't be too stingy, give him more rewards. At this moment, I need his power."
"Hehe, even if you don't tell me, I will do the same. It is too difficult to recruit a wizard who is not only capable but not greedy these days." waved.
The latter hurriedly saluted the witch respectfully, and then followed him into the dim tunnel.
Within a few minutes, the two returned to the entrance of the bar one after the other.
Just when Ralph was about to walk in and greet Zhang Cheng who was sitting on the bar while drinking juice and chatting with the young girl beside him, Kars grabbed him and threatened in a low voice: "Remember! You are not allowed to reveal a word of what you heard in the lady's room just now, especially to Zhang, otherwise you will understand what will happen."
"Of course! I am your man, and I will never betray you and the witch." Ralph bent down and swore.
"Very good! I like smart people! I hope you won't be fooled by your cleverness. Get as close as possible to Zhang, pay close attention to his every move, and don't forget to tell me if you find any suspicious signs. Here, help me Give this to him, and say it is the lady's extra reward for his mission." After that, Kars handed over a bracelet inlaid with green gemstones.
Holding it in his hand, Ralph immediately felt the faint energy emanating from the gem, and he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Magic...magic item!"
"Yes! The lady thinks highly of him, and it can even be said that she wants to win him over, but only if he is not a spy sent by others. Well, I have other things to do, and you can deal with the rest yourself."
Watching Kars's slightly aged back disappear into the darkness, Ralph sighed wryly: "Golden dinars, magic items, are these the treatment that a wizard with powerful power can get? I'm really a god with me." What a difference. It would be great if... if only I could get this kind of power."
With a hint of unwillingness, he took a deep breath, quickly adjusted his mood, and walked towards the bar.
Chapter 70 new tasks
Undoubtedly, Zhang Cheng, who was sitting near the bar, did not know that he had been quietly involved in a conspiracy and a struggle for power.
At the moment, he was busy looking at the new mission given by the parchment scroll. By the way, he gave a brief introduction to the underground world to the young girl beside him who had just regained consciousness, especially emphasizing how powerful the council was and how to deal with informers.
In a half-threatening, half-threatening tone, this dissatisfied girl was completely in a state of panic. Coupled with her personal experience more than an hour ago, she trembled involuntarily. He said to himself: "It turns out that werewolves, vampires, ghosts, angels, demons, and countless monsters in myths and legends are real! And they are hiding around us? It's terrible...It's terrible..."
"Then Gracie, do you have any questions?" Zhang Cheng took a sip of freshly squeezed orange juice from his glass and asked without looking up.
The girl named Grace quickly shook her head: "No, not anymore. But I want to know, why did you save me? How are the three girls who were kidnapped like me now?"
"There are two main reasons for saving you. First, you have shown an extraordinary will to survive; second, I think you are likely to be a good bait. After all, you who almost became a sacrifice will inevitably be killed. The demon is marked, and if he comes to this world, the first thing he will look for is you. As for the other three girls, unfortunately, they were all consumed by flames in the violent explosion, leaving only charred bodies."
After the explanation, Zhang Cheng ignored the other party and focused on the few lines of small characters on the sheepskin scroll.
Different from the clear goal given before, this time the task is very vague, and the core meaning is only two words - integration.
Where do you fit in?
Is the underground world or the faction that the witch Catherine belongs to?
To what extent?
Is it enough to have a taste, or do you need to obtain certain rights and status?
No detailed criteria were given at all.
And the task reward is also very wonderful, it is actually a channel to open the next new world!
You must know that the things brought back from Azeroth have been digested for a long time. Before the digestion is completed, he does not plan to absorb new knowledge systems for the time being. Anyone with a little brain understands the principle of chewing too much.
Of course, in addition to the main task, the parchment also gives several additional small tasks.For example, if you kill the werewolf leader Salas, you can increase the energy limit that your body can accommodate and reward you with two talent points after you succeed; another example is deciphering the notes you got from Ralph, and you will be rewarded every time you complete a stage.
It can be said that this piece of parchment seems to be consciously guiding Zhang Cheng to learn knowledge, improve his strength, and defeat opponents step by step, just like countless RPG games do tasks, upgrade, and fight bosses. Enemies appeared that he could not defeat at all.
Just when Zhang Cheng was thinking hard about the purpose of the bastard who threw him here without his consent, Gracie finally recovered from the shock and couldn't help shouting: "I... Demon marked?!!"
"That's right! Look at your shoulder. If nothing else happens, there should be a fairly obvious mark. I have seen several guys with such marks on their bodies, and they were all killed by demons without exception."
Accompanied by a slightly pessimistic answer, Ralph sat down on the chair next to him, his eyes showing undisguised sympathy.
"No! No! No!" Tracy tore off the T-shirt frantically, and found a red mark in the shape of a claw on the back of the right shoulder.
Although on the surface, this imprint looks a bit like the poor blood circulation caused by being squeezed by some hard object, but in fact, no matter how the girl rubs it, it will not dissipate, and even the skin is scratched in the end, but the imprint remains. clear and distinct.
"Oh, don't struggle, kid. It's useless even if you tear off the whole piece of skin, the imprint can be transferred from one place to another at most. If I were you, I would enjoy life from now on and live as much as possible. Be happy." Ralph reassured with a helpless sigh.
As a demon hunter, he has seen too many life and death, witnessed countless human tragedies, and even personally killed ordinary people who were accidentally involved, so he didn't have much emotional fluctuations, just felt a little regretful That's all.
"No! I don't want to die! Save me! There must be some way to save me, right?" Tracy was a little incoherent excitedly.
When she thought that after death, her soul would be imprisoned in hell and suffer endless torture, she felt chills all over her body.
"Hey! Little girl, I have a way to escape the devil's pursuit. How about it, do you want to try it?" A pale male vampire appeared next to the bar at some point.
"Damn Jesse! Get the hell out of here! Don't think I don't know what you're up to." Ralph rolled his eyes angrily.
The vampire called Jesse shrugged his shoulders nonchalantly: "Don't be so full of prejudice, becoming my subordinate is much better than being killed by a demon, isn't it?"
"Hmph! Don't think I don't know, the low-level vampires who have just been transformed are basically no different from slaves. Not only do they have to satisfy all kinds of sick desires of the high-level vampires, but they also have to go out to find food on their own. He went crazy before he was promoted." Ralph sneered, mercilessly exposing the other party's sinister intentions.
"Okay, okay, I'm just offering an option. Remember, girl, if you figure it out, you can always find me at the Midnight Row in Queens. My door is always open for a lovely girl like you. "
After saying this, Jesse got up and greeted Zhang Cheng who was still sitting there, then turned around and left the underground bar with two other scantily clad female vampires.
As soon as they left, Ralph took out a wooden box and the bracelet inlaid with green gemstones from his pocket: "Mr. Wizard, this is the reward for your mission. Lord Kars, please let me pass it to you." .”
"Oh?"
Hearing the word remuneration, Zhang Cheng immediately put away the parchment, first opened the wooden box and took a look, and found that there were a total of forty gold dinars inside, ten more than the original reservation.
After closing the box, he picked up the bracelet and looked it over carefully, and soon confirmed that an interesting spiritual life was sealed inside the gemstone.
Although the creature does not have any consciousness or thinking ability, let alone powerful combat power, it can obey all the commands of the bracelet holder [-]% after being summoned. Generally speaking, it is a qualified servant and life assistant.
Chapter 71 request
Gently stroking the exquisite notches on the inside of the bracelet, Zhang Cheng suddenly asked, "What is this? An extra reward?"
"Haha! Don't ask me, I'm just a small person responsible for delivering things. But I personally think it's more like compensation than a reward. After all, demons are notoriously difficult to deal with. If you weren't there, Mr. Witch I still don't know who my enemy is." Ralph picked up the whiskey he just ordered and drank it, and complimented him with a big smile.
"Really?" Zhang Cheng obviously didn't believe the other party's excuse.
Although he didn't quite know why Catherine was so generous, but one thing was certain, that is, the purpose was definitely not purely for compensation.
Ralph smiled wryly and shook his head: "Don't embarrass me, anyway, the benefits you get are not for nothing. In addition, thanks to you, our team also got a reward of 200 million U.S. dollars this time, which is a long time. There is no need to run around for a living any more time."
