Lord Helanza

Close the curtains, Surdak closed the door locked, and walked out of the Maple Leaf Hotel along the back-shaped corridor.

According to the description of the waiter, the tavern called "Char" is not far from the hotel. Therefore, Surdak did not ride a horse. Wearing a set of ordinary leather armor, he did not wear a noble medal on his chest, only a Knight badge. This outfit can be seen everywhere in Pena City.

There are several magic caravans parked on the side of the hotel on North Street. A carriage husband sitting in the driver’s seat saw Surdak walking out of the hotel and quickly stood up from his seat. He got up, lifted his hat and smiled at Surdak and asked, "Master Knight, do you need to rent a magic caravan?"

Surdak waved his hand to indicate not to sit, and the carriage husband sat back to his original position.

When he walked to the place where Mrs. Dorothy was staying at the carriage just now, he deliberately slowed down two steps before moving towards a black magic wagon with dark patterns and looked over.

Sure enough, she saw the maid of Mrs. Dorothy sitting alone in the car of the magic caravan drinking tea silently. She did not notice Surdak passing by the roadside. The temperature was a bit hot in summer, so she drove it. Looking at the car door, the magic light inside the car shining on her immature face.

Surdak took another look at the townhouse opposite. The curtains were drawn on the windows and the lights were lit inside, but the youngster could not be seen.

I heard that in Pena City, noble ladies have a few loves. People are very common, and they seem to have no love. Talents are something that makes people feel a little unbelievable.

Although the sky is getting dark, there are still many pedestrians on the street. Some civilians are walking hurriedly holding a bag of food, and you can see the fatigue on their faces. Surdak guessed that in such a big city The common people living in life must be very stressful.

There is also a group of bare-backed children in shorts running wildly on the street. It seems that the lampposts and shrub walls on the street are all recreational facilities they can use.

Surdak walked through the cross street, beside the rusty water pipe next to the street, a man in a trench coat was squeezing a woman in a silk skirt against the wall, and the two were in the shadows They hugged each other tightly, and after walking a few steps forward, Surdak discovered that there were several street girls standing under the shadow of every building on this street.

When they saw Surdak coming, they walked from the shadows to the street lamp, lifted up the pleated skirt to reveal a long and slender leg, or pulled the skirt hard to reveal what was squeezed out by the waist. Snow-white breasts and breasts again showed a sweet smile, but they were very careful and never made physical contact. Surdak would quickly get out of the way without saying anything, and would not ask questions.

On the wooden benches next to the bushes lay some homeless people. They curled up and lay on them hu hu asleep. Some even had a bottle of wine on hand.

Surdak can’t figure out why these tramp rice can’t be eaten, so why should I drink this more expensive ale?

The Shire Tavern is not difficult to find. There are four doorkeepers at the entrance of the Tavern. Seeing Surdak in a clean leather suit, he immediately opened the gate of the Tavern and asked Surdak to sit in.

To those homeless people who wander in front of the tavern, these waiters have no good faces.

Surdak walked into this tavern, the room was not too noisy.

The lighting in the room is very soft, and the wooden tables and chairs are also very elegant, full of alcohol, perfume, and the smell of barbecue. The drinkers talk in low voices. There are not many wine sellers in the pub. If you want to order a drink, you will beckon to the waiter standing by the wall.

Surdak walked directly to the front of the bar and sat in front of the bartender.

There are also many customers sitting at the bar, men and women huddling side by side, some are sitting and chatting, others are drinking alone.

The bartender's gaze fell on Surdak, his gaze stretched from his firm arm to his calloused hand, revealing a questioning gaze.

Surdak pointed his finger at a bottle of golden cider behind him, and said, "Please give me a glass of golden cider!"

"Northern people?"

The bartender turned and took the bottle of wine expertly.

Like a trick, a glass was placed in front of Surdak, and three pieces of ice were added before filling the glass with golden liquor.

Surdak held the wine glass and shook it gently, and the ice cubes made the sound of ding ding dong dong in the glass.

"Helanza people."

Surdak said.

After speaking, she pointed to the Knight badge on her chest, and then asked the bartender: "Hey, who should I call for the news here?"

"What news?"

The bartender approached Surdak, stared at Surdak and asked.

"About the Bradbury family, including the manor that was attacked." Surdak said to the bartender.

The bartender was not surprised at all. He stared at Surdak and said:

"At least thirty people came to me to inquire about this before you, so this news is worthless. I can tell you what everyone knows about a Gold Coin. Of course, if you don’t find it bothersome, you can casually chat with someone in the city. Find a few more people to hear the news. We just summarized the news. If you want to know more in-depth information, you will be charged an information fee of one Gold Coin for each message. Of course, these messages will definitely make you feel worthwhile."

Surdak has launched a coin. Gold Coin, placed in front of the bartender.

The bartender did not immediately take the Gold Coin, but shouted into the aisle behind him: "Sophia, this Knight wants to hear stories about Lord Bradbury."

"No problem."

A woman wearing tight leather armor with ordinary appearance but very flexible eyes opened the curtain and walked out of the aisle, her eyes fell on the Gold Coin on the table, her index finger With just a single tap on the table, the Gold Coin jumped up from the table and fell into the palm of the woman's hand precisely.

Sophia glanced at Surdak with a faint smile, and said:

"Follow me!"

Turning around and walking into the aisle behind him, The bartender stepped aside to let Surdak pass.

Surdak followed the woman into a private room, Sophia sat down at the table, took a sip of wine, and asked Surdak:

"Tell me What do you want to hear?"

Surdak actually just wanted to find out the location of Bradbury Manor, and also wanted to know what kind of secrets the family hides, but now that he paid a Gold Coin , He simply said: "I don't know much about everything, and talk about everything you can say..." Sophia gave Surdak an angry look. At this time, Surdak was on her chest. Seeing a badge, the pattern on the badge is that two daggers are stacked on top of each other. The background is a pair of eyes hidden in the shadow of the grass. Surdak knows this is the badge of the thieves’ union. Didn’t expect this ordinary-looking lady is actually A thieves officially certified by the thieves’ union.

For the thieves’ union, Surdak is still a little curious.

"Oh, I don't need to introduce the glorious deeds of Master Bradbury in his life?" Sophia asked Surdak.

Surdak nodded said: "Of course, I am a native of Helanza."

Sophia took another sip of ale before whispering to Surdak:

"Then starting from the attack on Bradbury Manor, you should also know that in the past two hundred years, the Bradbury family has not even a knight capable of fighting, and every generation of lord has attempted nothing. and accomplish nothing, not because of poor management and heavy debts, or arrogance and prostitution of Huo Family property. Every generation of Bradbury family leaders must sell a part of the family property in order to maintain the family’s daily expenses and final decentness. Nowadays, Bray Apart from the unsaleable manor in Pena, the Debury family has no additional properties left."

"The current successor of the Bradbury family is Benny Bradbury. Baron, after graduating from Pena high level Swordsman Academy, Baron served in the Pena Swordsman group for four years, then retired and joined an adventure group called'Flame Dragon' in Pena. The adventure group has traveled in the provinces of the Grimm Empire for several years. When the adventure group returned to Pena City, there was a female magician in the adventure group."

"Since the attack on Bradbury Manor After that, the female magician disappeared from the face of the earth. According to our intelligence analysis, this female magician is most likely a member of the Dark Moon Gate. The purpose of her joining the adventure group is to get close to the face of the earth. Baron, snooping on the Bradbury family’s intelligence, in the end she also attracted the rebels and ransacked the Bradbury Manor."

"Those rebels from the Bradbury family’s showroom He snatched a crystal key. It is said that it was a key carved from magic crystal, which could open the door of the red dragon treasure. The patriarch of the Bradbury family was the custodian of this crystal key. "

"As for why the Bradbury family has not tried to find the red dragon treasure, the information we have collected is: it is not that they do not find it, they have been searching for this treasure for so many years. It’s just that they don’t have a complete Treasure Map. This time Benny Bradbury Baron adv The enture group traveled around the empire in order to collect information on the Treasure Map. He didn’t expect that his move immediately attracted the attention of the Dark Moon Gate. Speaking of which, it was the dragon-slaying sword of Quelcella. The name is too big. "

Surdak didn't expect there is so much hidden information in it. He remembered that the image projected in the magic crystal was really a certain mountain forest area, and his heart moved slightly, curiously asked: "So Red Dragon Is the treasure real? "

Sophia nodded said: "It is inferred from various signs that the red dragon treasure is likely to be real. You must know that the shiny gems and Gold Coin are irresistible to dragons. There is some wealth hidden in their lair, which is not difficult to understand, and it is said that Quelcella is buried in the Red Dragon Treasure. "

It turns out that the magic crystal is called the Crystal Key. No wonder it will be in the hands of the Geldon magician.

"The Bradbury family manor that was attacked by the rebels where? "Surdak asked casually.

"At No. 2 Hanting Street, the old noble district of Pena City. "

Sophia answered without hesitation. It seems that she has answered this question many times.

Sophia said to Surdak: "According to the information we have here, The crystal key is currently in the hands of the magicians of the Dark Moon Gate. The manor is now in an abandoned state. Even the successor of the manor, Benny Bradbury, Baron does not live there, but every one inquires. The adventure group involved in this incident would go to the manor to look for some clues. After the manor was attacked by the rebels, it was almost destroyed by people. "

"It seems that you are also interested in the Red Dragon Treasure? Sophia asked Surdak tentatively.

Laughed of Surdak indifferent expression.

Sophia didn’t ask much, just said: “Need to hire adventure. If you have a group, you can come here to find me at any time. I can introduce a trustworthy adventure group to you. There are experienced treasure hunters in the team. "

"Well, if you want to learn more about the details of the incident or the hidden information next, one Gold Coin for each question..."

Sophia finished, A triumphant smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, thinking that I had already lost my appetite. I just waited for Knight’s eagerness to ask, and gold coins would fly into the purse...

"No Now..." Surdak rubbed his hands, got up from the chair, and said casually.

"? ? ? "

Sophia looked towards Surdak with a bewildered look.

She couldn't figure it out—Is the Knight in front of me not wanting to know the whereabouts of the crystal key? Know the origin of the Darkmoon Gate, don’t you want to know the clues of the rebels that attacked Bradbury Manor?

Surdak said with satisfaction:

"It’s enough to know so much, I just I’m a little curious, what happened in Pena City, which disturbed the guard camp Knight in Helanza City every day. I later learned that it was a legend about Querceira, so I took advantage of this opportunity to come to Pena City to inquire...Thank you So many stories have been introduced to me, and when I return to Helanza City to attend the party, there will be a new topic again! "

After I said Surdak, I walked out of the room.

Sophia spoke dryly, took a sip of ale, and sat in a chair sulking.

Thinking about my bad luck tonight, I actually met such a stingy Knight.

Back to the hotel, Surdak lay on the soft big bed, and began to seriously think about how to deal with it. The magic crystal was sent to Bradbury Manor. I thought I would go to the deserted Bradbury Manor tomorrow to take a look, and take the time to write a visiting letter and send it to the Marquis Luther.

In addition, since I came to Pena City, I had to meet Hathaway and Beatrice. I heard that Hathaway was locked up in the house. Surdak planned to write a letter to Beatrice first. Let’s look at the details.

In the morning of 2nd day, Surdak had breakfast in the restaurant downstairs in the hotel, and then rode out of the Maple Leaf Hotel and moved towards Bradbury along the streets of the city. Go to the manor.

The old noble district is really far from the block where Surdak Hotel is located. There is a section of the road......
