Chapter 47 Waiting
in Shaker Town.
Baron Nora and his party rode into the city on tall horses.
When some scattered residents on the street saw these nobles and knights approaching, they hurriedly fled home and closed their doors.
Shaker Town is a run-down town with not many residents. Soon, the streets became deserted. Only the sound of horse hooves echoed in the empty streets.
Baron Nora looked at the buildings around him and said with emotion: "It's been a while since I've been here, and this town has become a lot more desolate."
Rexa said from the side: "I heard that the Baron was a little emotional about this town. Are there any special feelings?"
Baron Nora nodded and said: "I have been here a few years ago. At that time, I was a newly appointed financial commissioner of the city hall. At that time, Lord Arnold of Black Rock City was developing here. I'm here to supervise an iron ore mine on behalf of the city hall. I gained a lot during my years with Lord Arnold." "It turns out that
you once worked with our legendary French knight in the Volo Valley. You are indeed young and talented. That's why." Lexa complimented.
He said this with his mouth, but he was cursing secretly in his heart. I thought that by telling you about this experience, it was just to put money on your face, hoping to gain more bargaining chips in the subsequent negotiations after taking over Lord Sardin.
Thinking of this, he felt a little disdainful. Even if we worked together back then, Earl Arnold has probably forgotten who you are now.
Just listen to Baron Nora continue: "The old Earl did something that impressed me deeply. When he was dealing with the strike of absentees due to safety and environmental issues, he actually killed half of the miners in one go. , and then used a large number of kobolds to replace serfs. This kind of decision, when I think about it now, I still feel that the old earl is very courageous. His approach deeply affected me and made my life suddenly enlightened." When Lexa heard this, he
immediately Feeling sad, he nodded and said, "That's right. Those serfs are sometimes worse than kobolds. Those who want to achieve great things must kill decisively and have an iron will.
" Baron La smiled and shook his head: "Those absentees are not serfs, most of them are citizens of this town."
"Huh?" Lexa was immediately shocked and murmured: "The ones Mr. Arnold killed were actually civilians. ?"
Baron Nora glanced at him and said, "What's wrong with the civilians? Why are they so excited? It was after that incident that the population of Shake Town shrunk by 30%. The old mayor at that time led the townspeople to The city hall had been suing Mr. Arnold for a long time. But others were fine with it, could they sue Mr. Arnold at will? Later, the city hall found it troublesome and made an unwritten agreement: All criminal cases involving Shaker Town and All lawsuits will be postponed."
When he said this, he smiled and said: "Over time, this place has become a lawless place. The city hall has not even sent a peace officer here, and the number of residents is decreasing every year. This is why , I will invite Lord Saltin to come to this place."
Lexa suddenly felt a little enlightened, nodded and said: "This place is desolate and hidden, and it is also a lawless place where even the city hall doesn't care. It is indeed a murderer. A good place for torture to extract confessions."
"Actually, it's not entirely because of this. If you really want to count it, except for the lower plains of the Volo River, which other place is not a good place for killing people and selling goods?" Baron Nora smiled: "Mainly. I have raised five women here, including a pair of twins. It just so happens that I brought Mr. William here for a tasting to see what my taste is." A smile appeared on Lexa's face and he nodded quickly
, Suddenly there was some expectation. I wanted to cooperate with this Baron Nora, and that would be all I wanted to do, but I would be able to enjoy endless sexual blessings.
This kind of cooperation is quite comfortable.
The two of them smiled obscenely and walked into Baron Nora's villa in Shaker Town.
This courtyard is quite exquisitely decorated, in sharp contrast to the dilapidated courtyards where other civilians live on the street.
After the two sat down, Baron Nora ordered someone to take out the wine from the cellar and invited Lexa to drink it together.
Elliot was watched by the two knights and also sat on the chair at the bottom.
Lexa was a little distracted at the moment, wanting to see immediately what kind of beauties the two twins Baron Nora just mentioned could be.
However, thinking that the matter was not finished yet and Lord Saltin had not yet been captured, he had no choice but to suppress this idea.
The two of them waited for a while, both of them a little impatient.
Baron Nora turned to Elliot and asked: "What time did you agree with that Lord Saldin?"
Elliot replied in a deep voice: "The time you told him was before noon."
"Before noon." Baron Nora took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and said angrily: "Isn't it already fucking noon?"
Lexa said softly: "How about waiting a little longer? The man I arranged to lurk outside Shaker Town Nightingale Assassin, no information has been received yet."
"Does this kid not know the way?" Baron Nora said impatiently.
At this moment, the servant presented the roast meat that he had brought with him. The two had to fill their stomachs first.
After waiting for a while, there was still no news that Lord Saltin had entered Shaker Town.
The faces of the two suddenly turned ugly.
Baron Nora originally thought that this would happen naturally, but he did not expect that Lord Saldin would dare not come.
So you don’t take yourself, the deputy finance minister of the city hall, seriously?
Isn't he afraid that he will take back his license again?
Nora stood up, grabbed Elliot's collar, and said coldly: "Elliot, you won't join forces with that Lord Saldin to cheat, will you?" A look of fear appeared on
Elliot's face. He quickly said: "Lord Baron, Joshua is still in your hands. How dare I join forces with him? What good will this do to me?"
Nora let go of her hand angrily, thinking the same thing.
This Eliot risked his and Joshua's lives just to let Lord Saldin let him go?
It doesn't make sense in theory.
"Then why hasn't he come so late?" Baron Nora asked with a sullen face.
"Perhaps he really doesn't know the road?" Elliot gave his guess.
"Fart! Is there anyone so stupid?" Baron Nora sneered.
Elliot pondered and said: "As far as I know, Lord Sardine locks himself in the studio all day long to study alchemy, and indeed rarely goes out."
Baron Nora and Lexa looked at each other. , both of them were a little surprised.
Lexa thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Why don't we let the Sheriff go to Saltine Manor again to see what's going on. Anyway, we are already prepared, so there is no harm in waiting any longer. "
Baron Nora nodded, thinking that this is the only way.
He grabbed Elliot's collar again and said in a cold tone in his ear: "Go now and bring Saldin to me. If something goes wrong again, I will take your beloved back when I go back." Joshua was cut into pieces. Moreover, before killing her, I must let my entire knights taste her ecstasy and bone-crushing taste." "Don't worry, sir,
I will take him away right away. Come here." Elliot said immediately with a panicked look.
At the moment, two knights accompanied him, each riding a horse, as they walked out of Shaker Town and headed towards the official road.
In the dense forest on the high slope next to the official road, Romo squatted on a branch, quietly watching Elliot and the two knights behind him appear in the field of vision.
He took a deep breath, first put the potion-enhancing alchemy stone in his mouth, and then drank the Energy-Gathering Use and Energy-Gathering Sensitivity respectively.
With the blessing of the alchemy stone, the efficacy of these two bottles of medicine will be doubled.
In the next period of time, his physical fitness will be directly promoted to the intermediate fourth-level knight.
On the road to knighthood, every promotion level is a qualitative leap.
At this moment, he felt lighter than ever before, and a steady stream of power was aroused in his body. It made his blood boil.
