Chapter 219 Red Stone Collection One Hegemony
Lehman leaned forward slightly, clasped his hands, and said word by word:
"I have some friends in Redstone who heard about your feat last night."
He didn't dare to directly say that the entire Red Stone Collection knew that you killed a powerful awakener, is it something that everyone knows can be called a secret?
Jiang Baimian did not continue the topic, but asked instead:
"Mr. Lehman, then what are you looking for us?"
Lehman said a little crampedly:
"I would like to entrust you with a mission, which will be a bit dangerous, but please rest assured that it will definitely be issued by the Hunter Guild and subject to their review and supervision."
Jiang Baimian thought for a few seconds, and showed a narrow smile behind the mask:
"Does this mission have anything to do with the cause of the destruction of the old world?"
"......" Lehman was at a loss for a while, and shook his head for a long time, "Probably not."
Shang Jianyao asked:
"Does that have anything to do with the cause of the outbreak of 'heartless disease'?"
Hey, it's quite tacit...... Jiang Baimian praised it in his heart.
Lehman couldn't keep up with the thoughts of the two ruin hunters opposite at all, and replied a little confused:
"No."
He heard that the more powerful the Awakened person, the more unstable their mental state is, or they have very strange habits.
Is this the case with these two?
That's why you can kill that powerful awakener?
Jiang Baimian held back his laughter and said seriously:
"We don't take on all tasks, I'm sorry."
Lehman suddenly understood that the two questions just now were just excuses for refusal.
He was a little annoyed, feeling that the other party was entertaining himself.
Of course, as a smuggling merchant, it is an instinct to measure the strength of the enemy and ourselves, he thought for a moment, gave up his anger, and said regretfully:
"It's a pity, the reward will be very generous."
Jiang Baimian didn't ask what kind of reward he would have, and rejected the other party's proposal again:
"Our team needs to rest and recuperate, so we will not accept the task for the time being."
"Okay, if you want to pick it up, you can come to me at any time, and I should stay in Redstone for a few more days." Lehman felt that the relic hunter opposite him had a firm attitude, stood up, and said goodbye politely.
After watching the smuggler go away, Jiang Baimian said with a smile:
"If we hadn't booked an exoskeleton device, maybe we would really consider his mission."
Now, they are the "old tune team", not the real relic hunter team, and they don't support their families by taking on tasks.
"Our next goal is three, one is to find a way to contact Dimarco in the 'Underground Ship' to see if he has any information about the destruction of the old world, the second is to go to the island in the middle of the lake to see the sleeping 'gods', and the third is to collect information about the 'Mechanical Paradise' and prepare for dealing with it later." Illness to illness, Jiang Baimian's thinking is still very clear.
Shang Jianyao sighed regretfully:
"Just get another exoskeleton device."
"Yes." Jiang Baimian thought for a moment and nodded, "It would be better if Xiaobai was a little stronger. Who would have too many exoskeleton devices? We can use it too. Well, this is not too urgent, there is no need to take too much risk."
She was about to take off her mask, take off her coat, lie back on the bed, and continue to be a patient, but she sensed someone coming in this direction again.
"Really, can't you give patients time to rest?" She couldn't help but complain.
Shang Jianyao immediately found a piece of paper and wrote a few words on it:
"Please do not disturb."
As soon as he opened the door and was about to paste the paper on the door, he saw Mrs. Teresa trying to knock on the door.
The widow of the arms dealer Hevig was still wearing the hat with a black veil hanging down, followed by several men armed to their teeth and masked faces.
Teresa was stunned for a moment and asked bluntly:
"I heard that you have recovered the arms?"
"Yes." Shang Jianyao said happily, "Half of you are in the church."
As he spoke, he glanced at the people behind Teresa.
Feeling his gaze, the bodies of those people instantly tensed, and even trembled slightly, as if they were going to find a place to hide if they disagreed.
They had experienced how terrifying the subhuman awakener was last night, and now, the one in front of them had killed that subhuman awakener!
"It's not a good thing to be too vigilant." Shang Jianyao sincerely gave advice.
It's okay that he didn't speak, but as soon as he spoke, the few people who followed Teresa had the urge to turn around and run away.
Fortunately, it was just impulsive and did not put it into practice, which shows that they are still normal people.
Seeing this, Teresa hurriedly introduced:
"They are loyal to Hervig and are now responsible for protecting me."
The conversation between the two was in the Red River language.
At this time, Jiang Baimian walked to the door and said with a smile:
"I will take you to the church now to get the remaining arms, remember to get them, go to the guild to confirm that our task has been completed."
Teresa breathed a sigh of relief and said with emotion:
"I didn't expect you guys to be so strong.
"Uh, I didn't expect you to be gray whisperers.
"I was so emotional at the time, although I didn't have a very good relationship with Hervig, but he was my husband after all."
Apparently, she learned from the rest of the Redstone Collection that this was the Grey Whisperers Squad.
"It's okay." Jiang Baimian had forgotten the original conversation.
Teresa was silent for a moment, and then asked:
"Have you found the murderer of Hvig?"
"Not yet." Jiang Baimian replied truthfully, "I just ruled out some suspects."
Belch...... You haven't completed this task yet, why did you just take away half of the arms? Teresa originally wanted to say this, but then she remembered the "great achievements" of the ruin hunter team on the opposite side last night, and felt the nervousness and uneasiness of the "bodyguards" behind her, so she had to force a smile:
"It looks like the real murderer will be found soon."
At this moment, she realized how some Redstone Townspeople felt when facing Hervig in the past years:
Local hegemony!
Dare to be angry but dare not speak!
Jiang Baimian was still sick, so he didn't say much, and directly asked Shang Jianyao and Long Yuehong to drive Teresa's group to the vigilant church.
After seeing the warning Song He, they quickly completed the handover, so Shang Jianyao, Long Yuehong and others stood outside the church, standing next to the jeep, idly watching Teresa and the others busy counting arms and unloading supplies.
Looking at it, Shang Jianyao looked sideways to the other side.
Vierre, who was only 1.6 meters tall, circled around the side of the church and walked towards them.
After standing next to Long Yuehong, Viyer looked at Teresa who was praying in the church hall and laughed lowly:
"You definitely can't imagine what she really looks like."
"Really?" Shang Jianyao asked with great interest.
Viyer said with a smile:
"In the previous Mass, Hwig was busy completing the arms trade and deliberately exposed, and was quickly found.
"Not long after, Mrs. Teresa was also found, but she did not leave the church."
Speaking of this, he was slightly proud:
"I saw in the ventilation duct that she entered Bishop Renato's room.
"Hehe, this may be the reason why Bishop Renato suffered divine punishment and became a 'heartless one'."
"Huh?" Because Viel spoke the Red River language, Long Yuehong didn't understand it for a short time.
After a few seconds, he suddenly realized:
Bishop Renato and Mrs. Teresa are actually lovers!
How many secrets did Vieer discover with the help of ventilation ducts?
Long Yuehong secretly sighed, and Shang Jianyao commented sincerely:
"It's really busy."
"Are you mocking me?" Vieer glanced at Shang Jianyao, then said, "Everyone has many invisible masks, and only from the ventilation duct can you see their true appearance after taking off their masks from another world."
Speaking of this, he laughed again:
"Do you want to know what Song Warning looks like under the 'mask'?
"You would never think of it."
Long Yuehong thought about it for a moment, and said before Shang Jianyao:
"This has nothing to do with us, as long as Warning Song did not conspire against us in private, then what kind of person he is has nothing to do with us."
"Yes, yes." Shang Jianyao agreed.
Viyer pursed his mouth and said:
"You guys will lose a lot of fun like this."
Shang Jianyao didn't know what he was thinking, and suddenly became enthusiastic:
"Then have you observed the situation inside the 'underground ship'?"
Vier smiled:
"There are people guarding every vent of the 'underground boat', and there is no way to get in."
After a pause, he added another sentence to himself:
"But the people guarding the vents also communicate with each other in their daily lives."
Without waiting for Shang Jianyao to ask again, he jumped out and disappeared behind a pile of collapsed buildings.
Only at this time did Long Yuehong react:
"What does he mean is that he still has some understanding of the internal situation of the 'underground boat'?"
Shang Jianyao said thoughtfully:
"If I find him and win him, will he tell what he hears?"
