They all call me master

The whistle is made of iron and is completely black.

When Arthur touched the whistle, the text in front of his eyes began to flash——

[Name: Forward Sound]

[Type: other items]

[Quality: Hero]

[Attributes: 1, excitement (1/1); 2, weight bearing]

[Remarks: Master Alchemist 'Yi' is a very special one among many alchemy masters. Born in a knight family, 'Yi' has unimaginable courage and goes forward in every battle, even after becoming a master of alchemy. Facing the attack of the 'shadow', the master walked out of the alchemy laboratory, dressed up again, picked up the warhammer, and launched the last charge in his life - the apprentice Shaka witnessed this scene, and he held the teacher's figure firmly. Imprinted in his heart, in order to commemorate his teacher, he made a whistle. Whenever the whistle is blown, it is the time to 'break forward through the darkness' - many alchemy masters in later generations have imitated this whistle. The one in your hand It is the best among them]

…

[Excited: Instantly restore all life, physical strength, and energy, eliminate all negative status, and increase [Physique] by 3, designated skill level +1; duration 30 seconds]

[Weight-bearing: When the excitement ends, you will return to the state before using the excitement, and you will be weak for 3 days, and the designated skills will also be temporarily unavailable for 3 days]

(Note 1: The specified skill level cannot exceed the original limit)

(Note 2: Weakness can be cured)

(Note 3: After the prop attribute excitement is used up, it cannot be replenished)

(Note 4: When the body cannot bear the pain after returning to the state before using the excitement, death will be determined)

…

Arthur looked at the [Forward Voice] in his hand and frowned slightly.

There is no doubt that [Forward Sound] is very strong.

But similarly, the side effects of this prop are also terrible. If you are not careful, you will really die!

"Must be used in a relatively complete and healthy state!"

Arthur made a quick decision.

If you are seriously injured before using it, and you are weak after using [Excitement], you will most likely die.

Weak, Arthur could live with that.

Death, Arthur would never accept.

‘How terrible! ’

‘It’s death at every turn! ’

Arthur sighed in his heart, raised his hand and put the [Forward Voice] and the [Protective Copper Coin] into the [Athos Box]. Then, Arthur took a look at the changes in [Bluff].

[Bluff +5]

[Bluff Level 6:5/40]

…

'Sure enough, being a 'spiritual medium' has a bonus to [bluffing] - it has nothing to do with me!

Yes, it is like that! ’

Muttering in his heart, Arthur hugged Pendragon into his arms.

The young 'psychic medium' sat in a chair, masturbating Pendragon. He began to close his eyes and think about the guy who hired Jennifer and other mysterious people - he still doesn't know who they are.

Don't know the name.

Don't know what it looks like.

Even, I don’t know the gender.

But one thing he knew was that the other party was most likely there just for the fake 'check'.

Not just the paper and ink.

And those full ‘checks’.

The reason why Jennifer and others were hired was for insurance—because the other party was sure that someone would be eyeing those special papers and inks, so in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they chose mysterious people.

At the same time, in order to keep the secret of the "check" intact, the other party will kill people to silence them.

Therefore, I chose the weaker mysterious side person.

Therefore it follows——

‘Jennifer and others should have a certain reputation and be known to others in the previous secret gathering in Nanlos.

The identity of the other party should be very sensitive. If they appear in public, there will be trouble and they will be easily recognized.

The other party should know the truth about the previous fake 'check' case, and even have contact with Ailon, Jenkin, and one of the financial consultants.

That's why you know this...

etc! ’

Arthur, who was thinking, suddenly sat up straight.

He thought of another point: Truda!

The appearance of this secret man greatly hindered his speed to go to No. 10 Clara Street. Could it be that the other party deliberately provoked Truda in order to successfully get those complete 'checks'?

Then this guy is...

Member of 'Dead Poets Society'? !

If the person who instigated Truda, hired Jennifer and others, and cooperated with one of the old lion's financial advisors was this guy...

The scope was suddenly narrowed!

‘This is where things get really interesting! ’

Arthur touched his chin and murmured in his heart.

He seemed to see a spider hiding in the dark and weaving a web. The shelter formed by the shadow made people look at the spider's ferocity. By the time they fell into the web, it was already too late.

Thinking of such a scene, the corners of Arthur's mouth couldn't help but curl up.

One of his favorite things to do when he was a child was to poke spider webs!

Now?

Still so.

Arthur took out the complete 'checks' and looked through them carefully.

No special markings.

There is no special number.

There is no hidden information either.

Then there is only one possibility left -

These complete ‘checks’ can be mistaken as genuine!

this……

It’s so good!

Arthur's fingers trembled slightly. After taking all the 'checks' back into the [Athos Box], he could not resist filling in a number of 10,000,000 on the check signed by the old lion from Neiwan.

Even if Arthur knew that reaching such a figure, such a check would never be cashed.

But what if the numbers shrunk a bit?

What about shrinking it down to an inconspicuous level?

As for having only one full ‘check’?

When there is such a template, as well as enough special paper and ink, Arthur can make many copies by himself, even if he doesn't find anyone else!

‘I’m afraid that’s what that guy wants to do, right? ’

Arthur narrowed his eyes as he grasped the slightest idea of ​​the 'Dead Poets Society' member.

Then, the young 'psychic medium' smiled again.

He agreed with the other party's idea.

He had similar thoughts.

That……

At this point, will the other party give up?

Most likely not.

In other words, he is likely to see each other!

No!

not him!

It's Auburn!

Auburn, the descendant of the 'Blood Marquis' family, planned everything. What does this little 'spiritual medium' have to do with him?

He was an innocent bystander.

Let the other party work hard to find Auburn, the descendant of the ‘Blood Marquis’!

If you can find it...

He just gave up!

Boom, boom!

While Arthur was still thinking, there was a knock on the door.

The familiar codeword is Wiggins.

The door to No. 2 Kirk Street opened silently.

On a rare sunny day, Wiggins still held his own 'saber' in his hand - not only was it a gift from Arthur, but also because of the existence of the umbrella sword, it was really convenient for people like Wiggins. .

They need this concealed weapon.

In Los Angeles, no one would pay attention to a person holding an umbrella on a sunny day.

Because, everyone is the same.

After all, no one can guarantee when it will rain in South Los Angeles.

Looking at Arthur in the small hall at the end of the corridor, Wiggins was not curious about why the door opened automatically. Following this adult, he had already seen too many strange things.

"Good morning, Ms. 'Anna'!"

After Wiggins greeted Ms. Anna, he walked directly into the small hall and reported everything to Arthur recently——

"Sir, I already control one-third of Mouse Street. After these days of development, there are already twenty one people.

These are people I have met before and have carefully screened. Their personalities, styles and families determine their loyalty.

The legacy left by Dotas is enough for you, my lord, to have twenty similar minions.

The existing land is enough to support everyone.

However, people still need to be screened slowly. "

After performing the Lion Heart Ceremony, Wiggins became Arthur's retainer to a certain extent, and the relationship between the two parties was naturally different from others.

There is both natural closeness and coexistence of interests.

When the latter is destroyed, the former naturally disappears.

Therefore, Arthur grasped a certain degree appropriately.

“Well done!”

"Keep your original style and ensure that your current territory will be your territory. Everything you get, except the necessary taxes, will be yours."

After listening to Wiggins' report, Arthur said directly.

Wiggins was stunned by Arthur's generosity.

Then, the golden finger from Mouse Street knelt down on one knee and said——

"Your existence is my belief in this life!"

The sound is sonorous and powerful.

Arthur smiled and patted the other man's shoulder.

Knight games are really fun sometimes.

But the real reason is that Wiggins' progress far exceeded Arthur's expectations.

In his mind, Wiggins' ability to control a quarter of the original Mouse Street would be considered a pass, and being able to recruit twenty-one reliable subordinates would be an unexpected surprise.

It is easy to recruit people in Mouse Street, but it is not easy to recruit loyal subordinates.

There is no doubt that Wiggins has stronger abilities than he expected.

This makes Arthur more confident about his future plans——

"In the next stage, I need you to open a grocery store in Mouse Street - a grocery store with normal prices and normal quality."

Arthur emphasized.

There is also a grocery store on Mouse Street.

However, the price is extremely expensive, and the price of the goods is hard to describe.

It’s not that no one doesn’t want to do it well, it’s just that the general environment of Mouse Street has determined that it’s impossible to do it well.

Will a group of criminals bargain with you?

Will not.

But that was before.

Arthur believed that with enough support, such a grocery store would be able to open.

And this is the first step.

After building a reputation, you will open the second floor of the grocery store to trade mysterious items - you will not compete with Mouse Alley for business, everything here is based on Mouse Alley.

At least in the short term.

Robbery from the rich and giving to the poor?

That's when step three comes.

"Understood!

Sir, do you need a name for the grocery store? "

Wiggins nodded and asked seriously.

Arthur had not thought about this issue before, but after hearing his subordinate's question, he blurted out a name without even thinking about it.
