I have a magical world

Chapter 100 The person appointed behind the scenes leaves the North District [Seeking Order III]

"Pooh!"

Unexpectedly, this halfling had a rather tough temper.

He spit out a mouthful of blood in Chen Xuan's face.

Chen just turned his head slightly to avoid this sudden "attack".

Even during interrogation, he maintained a state of open sense and extrasensory vision.

The guy in front of him had thick hair on his hands and feet and was only as tall as his waist. His face was full of generosity and sacrifice, and he even grinned, showing his blood-stained teeth.

This made the atmosphere a little weird.

Chen Xuan seemed to change from a counterattacker to a vicious villain in an instant.

He dropped the halfling scout at Beria's feet and gave her a look.

The next moment, Beria carried the halfling out of the ruins.

Not long after, screams came from outside.

At this time, Chen Xuan looked at the black hat scout Marcelo whose arms were cut off.

I took out the 16-inch two-stroke gasoline saw that had not been used for a long time.

After ringing, slowly approach his head.

"how about you?"

"Answer the question, or hold on to it?"

His tone was very slow, and the chain saw in his hand sometimes turned and sometimes stopped.

When the tungsten steel chain rotates on the guide plate, it will stir up airflow, and there will be a faint smell of blood on it.

"Uh-huh..."

Marcelo groaned and turned pale.

Losing a limb is not so easy to bear.

For an ordinary person, even blood loss would be fatal.

"I...after I say it, can you let me go?"

Chen Xuan shook his head and replied softly.

"No, but you can die more happily."

"Ah...kill me!"

The halfling scouts outside let out screams of pain, and then were interrupted again, leaving only a cry for death.

To be soft on the enemy is to be ruthless to oneself.

Chen Xuan didn't have too much psychological burden on this.

Of course, he was not interested in torture himself, so he left this matter to professionals.

The twins from Zerikan, Dora Beria, will definitely be able to solve this problem perfectly.

Different customs and different personalities have completely different world views.

Maybe the cruelty in his eyes is just a common thing in the eyes of some fighting peoples.

Screaming, crying out in pain, begging for death.

The news from outside quickly broke Marcelo's will.

Marisol next to this guy chose to close her eyes and wait for death to come.

"I said! Please give us a good time!"

"We were asked to monitor her..."

When Marcelo said this, his eyes looked at Ophelia standing behind.

He paused for a moment before continuing.

"It's... it's Ansetus Axl!"

As soon as these words came out, the half-elf lady was stunned.

Her body trembled, her mouth opened slightly, and she staggered and was about to fall.

Fortunately, Rebecca and Yucca were quick-sighted and helped her in time.

Chen Xuan can understand Ophelia's mood.

She lost her mother when she was young, lived in the shadow of her stepmother during her childhood, and was harassed by her perverted brother in her youth.

Her father, Ansetus, was her only support.

It is a solid mountain in her heart.

What Marcelo, the black hat scout, said was clearly a landslide for her.

"Are you sure?"

Chen Xuan asked again while holding the chain saw.

At the same time, he observed his detailed reactions. Lies are most likely to show flaws after they are repeated.

Therefore, for many liars, the first lie is the most determined and natural.

"I...I'm sure!"

"If you don't believe it...you can check my chest."

"There is a raven letter in the secret pocket there that has not yet been sent."

"Ansetus also... hired others to track down his wife."

Marcelo's breathing was a little short.

Chen Xuan didn't think he was lying.

But it doesn't matter, you will know the answer once you see the evidence.

There was no need for him to rummage by himself. Little Cat Girl had already stepped forward and used the tip of the rune dagger to open the belt of his leather armor and open the hidden pocket inside.

Sure enough, there was a Raven Message and a Crow Whistle.

After Rebecca checked it, she handed the letter and whistle to Chen Xuan.

He held the gasoline chain saw in one hand, the whistle in the palm of the other hand, held the letter with his fingers, and then smoothed it out with his thumb.

As a small letter sent by raven, it is long and narrow and can only record simple messages.

The above is very simple:

[Itinerary from the first to the third water clock on Sunday: Eastern District Adventurers Association, No. 12 Glen Mall Station, Bangcheng Blacksmiths Association, Water Elf Bathhouse...]

This is a trip record, roughly recording Ophelia's trip today.

There is nothing about Ansetus in the reliable scrolls.

But Chen Xuan soon remembered the crow-calling whistle.

This thing usually has one crow and three whistles, and each raven will only be attracted by the fixed whistle that it has been accustomed to since childhood.

The whistle is engraved with simple induction runes. When blown, it will cause the reaction of the rune tag worn on the raven's neck, and the trained raven will follow the induction.

The closer the distance, the more intense the reaction of the tag and crow whistle.

But the effective distance is only twenty or thirty kilometers at most.

This is the answer given by [Insight], there is no possibility of fraud.

So Chen Xuan stuffed the whistle into Marcelo's mouth.

"Blow it."

Marcelo, who is willing to take the initiative to explain, knows what to do.

He blew it directly, and while the whistle sounded, the runes engraved on it also glowed slightly.

The next thing to do is wait.

Less than a minute later, the sound of flapping wings was heard outside.

Soon a fat raven landed on Marcelo's shoulder.

It looked at everyone blankly, and also pecked out a mouthful of red meat from Marcelo's shoulder wound.

The kitten girl grabbed its neck with quick eyes and hands.

You can see the colchicum mark on its anklet, as well as a single-digit number.

The mailbox actually contained a new reply envelope.

[Watch out for her friends and don’t hurt her]

After Ophelia saw the familiar handwriting, her expression immediately changed from dull to sad.

Tears flowed down her cheeks, but she didn't cry hysterically.

The raven was crushed to death and would be disposed of later along with the other bodies.

Chen Xuan then asked him a few more questions.

Got a lot of information.

The rewards of these scouts were settled by a steward of the Colchicum Merchant Group.

They were employed by the two Naroas the day before, after Harward's accident.

It was then that Ophelia discovered her stalker.

In addition, Marcelo also told the two Narojas that the Colchicum Merchant Group had recalled all their guards.

They also used secret channels to secretly recruit mercenary and adventurer teams in several taverns opened by business groups.

The Colchicum merchant group is in addition to the caravans in the four urban areas of the east, west, south and north.

Its core, the caravan named Colchicum, is the essence of the entire business group.

All personnel movements and accounts were under the sole control of Ansetus.

It owns four exclusive trade routes and seventeen public trade routes. There are more than 300 draft horses responsible for pulling carts, and there are countless various types of vehicles and vehicles.

Originally, Howard Axl would first train in the Southern District Caravan, and after getting married, he would inherit the main foundation of the Colchicum Caravan.

In comparison, the caravans in the fourth area do not even reach one-tenth the size of the core caravans.

There is no need to say more about what happens next.

Chen Xuan asked Rebecca to give them a good time.

During this period, Beria also came back from outside.

The halfling scout was clicked by her.

Moreover, she also brought back a small purse and storage bag, a crossbow, and two rune steel awls.

Touching corpses is a good habit, and the two sisters don't need to be trained in this regard.

After all, they were Zerikan women.

In a place full of ferocious species, the tribesmen began to learn hunting knowledge at the age of six. They formally began to practice swordsmanship with wooden knives at the age of eight. They switched to real knives at the age of ten and participated in hunting at the age of twelve.

The monster failed to defeat Zerikan, but the slave-catching team was like a gadfly, which indeed brought great trouble to this clan country located in the eastern desert.

This shows that humans driven by interests are far more difficult to deal with than monsters.

They have no rules and will not emerge from the cave obediently like monsters.

On the contrary, they are good at hiding. As long as they find opportunities, they can take advantage of them to rob the population.

Zerikan's warriors killed group after group of slave-catching parties.

But this not only failed to curb the trend of slave hunting, but also made the situation worse.

Because as the difficulty of catching slaves increases, the price of slaves will skyrocket.

This will lead to more slave-catching gangs taking action.

Although the Zerikans are powerful, they are still a minority and cannot fight against the multi-ethnic alliance as a single tribe.

So the situation Zerikan faced was undoubtedly very embarrassing.

No matter what, the two Dora sisters are Chen Xuan's most qualified warriors at present!

"Master, I leave the things to you!"

Beria presented all the items with both hands.

Chen Xuan didn't want to waste any more time here, so he put it all away first.

Two storage bags were also found from Marcelo and Marisol.

Among them are some commonly used low-level potions, deodorizing powders and some trace-eliminating things.

Disposing of their bodies was quite simple.

Pile directly in the ruins.

Chen Xuan took out a few small gas bottles from the storage compartment and threw them on the body.

These are used in gas nail shooters.

After that, everyone retreated and Chen Xuan cast a spell to construct a [Explosive Fireball] to bombard the gas cylinder.

When the scorching fireball exploded, several gas bottles detonated one after another. The flames expanded and spread along with the jet of flammable gas, swallowing up everything around them in an instant!

After the explosion subsided, the pile of corpses burst into flames.

The air was filled with a pungent burnt smell.

"Get ready!"

Chen Xuan greeted.

Three bikes were brought together.

In another minefield marked by red dots in the ruins, there are still four or five broadsword mines that have not yet been detonated.

Just when everyone was staying at the wall behind the ruins and had no time to set off, they suddenly heard the sound of a small garrison team running forward in formation.

The sound of military boots hitting the ground together was still quite clear and eye-catching.

Fortunately, the ubiquitous garrison is still here!

The situation in the North District is similar to that in the West District, neither of which is considered a popular direction in the city.

The last time I was in Stinky Rat Alley, there were poor people living nearby.

The reason why the garrison arrived this time was relatively late.

The main reason is because of the ruins that burned down half a city block.

Therefore, Chen Xuan and others have more buffer time and room.

After all, not every garrison in the city is a rider on a light horse.

In fact, the light cavalry battalion in Magtan City did not even account for one twentieth of the total garrison.

I also have to go out frequently to investigate monsters.

Including the destruction of the farm, it was also the light riders who took the lead in the exploration.

Military horses are a waste of money.

It costs more than raising a sergeant.

As for the infantry team, Chen Xuan didn't take it seriously.

More than ten minutes have passed since the first M18A1 broadsword mine was detonated.

It is enough to prove that this place is indeed a dead spot in the North District.

In an emergency, Chen can only take special measures to escape.

I saw him quickly collecting the three bicycles.

Then he took Rebecca and Ophelia and flashed to a distance of 500 meters in a straight line.

This is an uninhabited corner of another alley.

Then quickly return to the original place and pick up the two Dora sisters.

Although the distance of [Flash in the same domain] can reach up to 800 meters, not all places are suitable for flashing hastily.

This is not over yet, after Chen Xuan picked up everyone.

He took out the radio detonator in the remaining minefield.

After a few clicks and all the explosions, he took out the bicycle again.

Three cars and five people drove quickly away from the scene along the new lane.

As time went on, both of his storage compartments began to become a little full.

There are too many supplies that Chen Xuan needs to store with him.

He thought that he should find a way to improve his golden fingers.

As far as storage compartments are concerned, plug-ins have begun to fail to keep up with his development.

…

The five of them rode from the North District to the West District. They found a decent pub and asked for a quiet private room to rest for a while.

Entering the private room, Chen Xuan first released his mental power and swept through every corner.

After making sure there were no hidden runes or anything like that, I calmly asked everyone to sit down.

Ophelia still looked a little dazed.

She no longer shed tears, just silent.

Rebecca sat next to Chen Xuan and obediently stretched out her hand to wipe the black ash on his face.

The Zerikan sisters hid on the other side, took out a pistol that had not been used before, and kept disassembling the magazine, as if they were playing.

"Dong dong dong!"

Chen Xuan suddenly reached out and tapped the table gently.

Ophelia, who was sitting opposite her, raised her head.

The face with the beautiful features of an elf looks a little numb.

"Cheer up."

"Your father sent people to follow you. He must have noticed that you had some unusual 'friends', from the previous Demon Tears to the death of Harward and the destruction of the Morr Green Leaf Group."

"Anyone in his right mind would be suspicious."

"And didn't you notice that in Raven's reply, he specifically asked not to hurt you?"

Chen Xuanhua pointed out the key point.

Judging from the behavior of tracking and monitoring alone, it cannot be concluded that Ansetus must have malicious intentions.

And the scouts also said that there were several others responsible for keeping an eye on Yusula.

Most importantly, the Colchicum Caravan is using channels to recruit troops.

This represents the fact that Ansetus is accumulating force.

Whether this was done to target Ophelia or Ursula is unclear.

His rational analysis successfully eased the mood of the half-elf lady.

"Master, you are right."

"..."

"Then it's time for me to report the business to you."

Ophelia's tone was still a little distressed, but at least she could communicate normally.

Chen Xuan didn't say anything more, he just nodded gently and motioned for her to continue.

"You already know about the order from the Blacksmiths Guild."

"The formation of the caravan is nearing completion, and the cumulative cost is approximately 9,700 crowns."

"But the caravan will not be able to undertake trade routes in a short period of time, and can only undertake the distribution of local traveling merchants."

"The temporary workshop has also been prepared. If we just sell magic tears and aluminum casting materials, there will be no problem at all."

Both of these are good news, and he doesn't care that the caravan cannot conduct trade routes. Anyway, the current focus is not that far.

Being able to streamline the process and create a prototype caravan capable of local distribution as soon as possible is enough to meet short-term requirements.

In the future, we can slowly optimize and expand the size of the caravan.

Any caravan is as big as this, and Chen Xuan has no objection to this.

After he nodded again, Ophelia continued: "In terms of adventurer commissions..."

"There is some bad news!"

…
