"Whoosh!"
While the bartender and George's group were chatting and laughing, a match drew an inconspicuous arc in the turbid air and headed straight for the bartender's clothes that were soaked in strong alcohol!
However, two slender fingers also lifted up at the same time. What a coincidence, and the parabola of the match reached the end point in advance!
"Huh?! You foreign bastards, are you robbing me of my fun? Or are you also traitors to the Illuminati Sect!"
Looking for a clue, the one who threw the match at the bartender was the same elf who threw the drink at him before. The accident of the match being intercepted halfway seemed to make him very unhappy. No, the elf had already picked up the bench at hand. , called his companions, and surrounded the three of them!
Rather retreat than entangle.
If it weren't for the principle that George repeatedly emphasized, which kept lingering in the ears of several vampire men, these elf gangsters would have been processed into mummies by several vampires.
But having said that, if he really takes action, George will still acquiesce to the minimum counterattack.
"Stop it, Ralph! If you still want to see the sun tomorrow, get as far away as you can!"
A sound filled with the smell of hookah came out of the shadows of the tavern. The elf hooligans who had been surrounding George immediately dispersed upon hearing the sound, leaving only the original drunk elf Ralph who poured wine and threw matches. He stood motionless until the owner of the voice waved his hand at him like a fly, and then the drunken elf crawled out of the tavern as if he was being amnesty!
"Guests, you seem to have something to do with our Thieves Guild. I am the head of the Thieves Guild, Red Pine City. Hawke, do you mind chatting alone?"
Although in most cases, the term elf refers to slender and handsome humanoids with long ears, the long-eared creature named Hawk in front of us is a special case that exists outside of "most cases". .
If I had to describe the special case of Hawke, his face, if you look closely, is cruel!
Ignoring the bartender who was quietly carried away by several other elves behind him, George's three men followed the long-eared man all the way to the depths of the alley along the back door of the pub.
A trap, an unabashed trap!
With infrared vision and excellent perception ability, the three vampires have long noticed that this seemingly deserted alley is full of ambushes arranged by the opponent!
And the man with long ears in front of him had no intention of hiding this matter.
"Okay, guests, welcome to the territory of the Thieves Guild. As a welcome ceremony, we have prepared assassins, ballistas, druids, and plenty of demon fire for you."
"It seems that you are not surprised. Ignorant people are fearless, or they are confident. I sincerely hope that several guests are the latter."
"Aren't you going to say something, how many guests? Let me guess their identities. A stowaway with extraordinary skills? A special commissioner transferred from the Royal Guards? Or, is it that Lien White? The city lord is very afraid of the subordinates of the foreign elders of the elves?"
"Guests, don't look so surprised. You know, the Thieves Guild's spies are all over the city. If you enter the city through the city gate, you guys with such powerful skills will not miss it. What's more, Wang Ting The special commissioner of the escort team can’t afford to come to a dirty tavern, and the stowaways won’t have that much spare money to gather information.”
"Now that we're here, why don't we all sit down and have a good chat and exchange ideas. If you can, please also help me bring a message to that Elder George - cooperation will benefit both sides, and fighting will hurt both. If there is no business, there is no friendship."
Brilliant reasoning, appropriate intimidation, and solicitation that is neither humble nor overbearing. If George had been at the scene, he would probably have already applauded.
As these words continued, George's men seemed a little shaken. After looking at each other, they decided to negotiate with the person in charge first.
"Thieves Guild, what can you offer?"
"Intelligence, black goods, money, treasures, assassination, smuggling, abduction... as long as you can afford to pay the corresponding price."
Transactions with no bottom line, business scope with no bottom line, this is the Thieves Guild.
"How much is this information about the purchase channel of demon fire worth?"
"One thousand gold coins is not a high price. As long as the city continues to be turbulent, we can get our capital back with profit within half a month."
"How much is this information worth on the long-term list of demon fire buyers?"
"This is cheap, one gold coin per name. You buy the purchasing channel, and I can give you a few lists of contacts, no problem!"
"In addition to demon fire, what other treasures do you have on hand?"
"The conventional ones include twin crystals, great swords, short crossbows, demon fires, poisonous potions, and mist bottles. If you need items from the Human Empire, such as standard armor or purification potions, the Thieves Guild can also get them, but the price starts at three times the price. "
…
snap,
Snap!
Suddenly, a pitch-black messenger bird with a red ribbon tied to its feet fluttered and landed on the eaves of the alley. Then, a group of bats passed over the alley, testing each other with questions and answers. The two groups of people stopped talking in unison and stared meaningfully at the other side!
In the end, it was George who spoke first:
"How many gold coins do you need to pay to reveal the mastermind behind this riot?"
"This information does not require gold coins. This information can only be told to the dead!"
