Chapter 370



although the whole town was in an abnormal state, the streets were eerily quiet. often, one or two windows would be opened, and they would close immediately after taking a peek.

They were clearly separated into two worlds.

Or rather, the townspeople were already used to such ” special ” treatment.

after taking a few steps, zhao xu got close to the auction house that was already surrounded by flames. but to his surprise, there were dozens of large wooden boxes on the ground next to him. they were being packed up in batches and were about to be loaded onto the horse carriage next to them.

on the field, there were no longer any people who had escaped from the fire. only the cavalrymen were in a hurry. they waved the sharp swords in their hands that were emitting a cold light and ordered the civilians to do labor.

zhao xu didn’t expect the entire process to take place so quickly.

The auction house didn’t even manage to organize any effective counterattacks before their entire lair was emptied and packed up.

“i didn’t expect these residents to be so afraid of that ghost. great, it saves us the trouble of sealing off the surrounding area.” at this moment, an older man walked up to zhao xu and said.

his appearance was very similar to zhao xu’s current appearance, but he was a little older. there were also two or three wizards following behind him.

It was self-evident that the other party was the elder brother of the young man from Huafu. He was probably also the mastermind behind the capture.

“That’s right.” zhao xu wasn’t sure how the two of them usually got along, but from the fact that this man was able to speak up from a distance away, he could guess that his relationship wasn’t too bad. he didn’t think that this man would fight for the right of inheritance or something like that.

“Hmph, that lucky one, just picking up the treasure left behind by that undying, made the entire floating city afraid to act rashly. in my opinion, you’re really pedantic.” the muscular man said in disdain.

at this moment, the butler who was following behind them hurriedly said, ” young master, please be careful with your words. ”

as he spoke, the butler looked around and then whispered to them, ” “Even gods were annihilated by the back-up plans left behind by the great emperor in the past. Therefore, before we can determine whether this is a ‘coincidence’ or ‘fate’s arrangement’, the floating city will keep a respectful distance from him.”

at this time, the other two mages behind him heard this inside story and could not help but perked up their ears to listen. it was only on this occasion that they could come into contact with the treacherous situation of mystra and experience how the important figures made their moves.

Zhao Xu was able to get a general idea of what was going on after hearing those few sentences.

Hmph, I just think that if we can get our hands on that treasure, we’ll be able to accomplish anything. As for that person, she’s just turning a woman who has no hope of revenge and died with hatred into an old ghost woman for revenge. She’s really petty from the inside out.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he thought back to the story of the old hag in frostdew town and understood what was going on.

the appearance of more than one “old ghost hag” in frostdew town was obviously man-made.

he also realized the meaning of the nursery rhyme about the red bride that he had heard.

The old mercenary in the tavern had said that traditional weddings here didn’t wear red clothes, unlike on earth.

This implied that the red clothes were actually dyed red by blood. As for the mountain and the lake, they were probably smashed to death by rocks and sank to the bottom of the lake.

the second line described a young girl who died and turned into an old ghost woman, who came back for revenge. this was why the third line dragged her away, and the fourth line described her dream, which matched the old ghost woman’s ability to invade dreams.

so the tied up lamb he saw before he came to mystra was actually begging for mercy from an old ghost woman.

and these old hags who could swagger around in frostdew town and whose existence was known by the entire town were all created by an existence who had obtained a ‘mysterious treasure’.

However, the floating city was still troubled by the origin of the ” treasure “, so it did not dare to rashly intervene in the entire frostdew town.

Zhao Xu immediately made his decision. When he got back, he would have to persuade the middle-aged woman to stay in Mystra.

frostdew town’s “old hag” was a dangerous place, it wasn’t something a level 6 mage like him could get involved in.

Just like in a Sutras story, most of the monsters with a background were ” punished ” slightly and then recruited back to the heavenly court, while those without a background were killed with a stick.

there was no doubt that these “old ghost women” had such a method.

at this time, the beams of the house had been burned down by the raging flames, and the sound of collapse began to come from inside. under the effect of the flash explosion, there were even flames that burst out, constantly illuminating the calm night sky of frost dew town.

The older brother of the young man in luxurious clothes was looking at the scenery in front of him and he was very satisfied. He suddenly said to Zhao Xu, ” “didn’t you just say you wanted to go to the bar to pass the time? let me tell you, mr. kyle is our uncle, and he’s a fifth-circle wizard. you can’t order him around like a servant.”

Suddenly, a carriage carrying goods, because its wheels were not fastened, just as it started, one of the wheels loosened, and it rolled all the way in front of the crowd.

at the same time, without the support of the wheels, the carriage, which had been under a lot of force, was immediately crushed. the goods that were only roughly packed fell out of it.

at this time, the person in charge of arranging the convoy looked nervously at the strong man and directly turned back to curse, ” “what did i tell you to do a maintenance check before leaving?”

seeing that the coachman on the carriage was not moved, he was even more furious. ” what are you still standing there for? hurry up and pack up. can you bear the responsibility of delaying the lord’s matters? ”

however, the important figures he mentioned were not paying attention to the scattered goods at all. they did not even notice his hard work.

but zhao xu just looked at the scattered goods and smiled.

it was no wonder that the mage family could make the surrounding adventurer forces shut up. they were really dark.

Seeing this scene, he already knew that he had lost his chance to fish in troubled waters.

However, at this time, he looked at the fireworks that represented the reshuffling of power in frostdew town with some kind of disappointment. He suddenly said, ” is there really no problem disguising the mage whose tomb collection was auctioned tonight as an ancestor of the family? ”

For a moment, the few people who heard his words had their faces slightly stiffened.

After a long time, the man looked at Zhao Xu seriously and said, ” “as the saying goes, if you want to deceive others, you must first deceive yourself. That’s why, for the past few days, other than a few people, no one knew that we had nothing to do with the mage whose tomb collection was being auctioned. You were still filled with righteous indignation even before you went to the tavern, so I thought that you had succeeded in hiding it. ”

when this place is burnt to the ground tomorrow, those who know the ‘inside story’ of our structure will be unable to refute, and those who are not qualified to know will not be able to participate. After all, there is still a distance between frostdew town and Mystra. This matter would have been left unsettled. It’s just that I didn’t think that you’d actually be able to see through it at the last step.”

“Uncle Karl might have guessed it, but I don’t think he will tell you. Your expression is too obvious. normally, you wouldn’t pay attention to the family’s glory or heraldry. The only possibility is that the thing that fell from the carriage just now, but I also took a glance and didn’t see anything unusual.”

“So, my dear brother, can you tell me how you could tell?”

The muscular man said with a smile, but his expression became serious.

to see through the disguise effect of the transformation technique,’magical techniques’ were naturally the most important.

And the old-fashioned skill of ” observing people’s expressions ” was also good at this, especially since Zhao Xu himself didn’t put too many skills into ” disguising “.

When a man in his Prime took part in family affairs, he would always hone his diplomatic skills such as ‘observation’,’ bluffing’, and ‘negotiation’. He would even specially purchase magic items to enhance the level of his skills in these areas.

at this time, the strong man could not help but turn back to look at the distant tavern, which had recovered its noise.

at this moment, zhao xu looked at the raging fire that was still burning.

The adventurers who raided the mages ‘graves would not have thought that they would survive the traps in the tombs and would instead fall in the outside world.

As for the large Chamber of Commerce that controlled the auction, they didn’t even think that this would become a disaster for them.

However, strictly speaking, it wasn’t an undeserved disaster.

A mage family would not simply recognize an ancestor for a tomb collection. That was only a ” +6 headband of intellect, ” not something like a ” +12 headband of intellect ” that could make even legends tear down their kind faces and fight for it.

it was the savings of the chamber of commerce that had been running for many years that had caught the eye of the mage family.

It was like a fruit tree that had been idle for many years, and now it was being harvested with a sickle.

“Friend? aren’t you going to answer?” at this moment, the robust man’s expression changed as he continued.

This was because Zhao Xu had already removed his disguise.

But Zhao Xu didn’t reply.

because in the corner of his eyes, a familiar figure had already appeared, as if it had happened yesterday.

” i’m sorry, this gentleman is under the association’s winter era calendar year 1043, section 11, order 2, order 233. he is now being called up by us. ”

antonya’s cold, female voice rang out. her voice was a little lazy, but it still managed to silence the entire hall.
