Glory Riding and Cutting

"Here are 1,700 gold coins, that's your own share, the rest recruit some skilled sailors, and then tidy up the ship, draw the same pattern on the sail as the coat of arms on the box, Guard me to solve it."

Danbier looked at the box and was a little stunned after hearing Aldridge's words. Seeing that Aldridge turned to leave, he hurriedly greeted Aldridge.

"My lord, is that why you trust me? Are you afraid that I will run away with the money?" Danbier was a little surprised.

"Can you run?" Aldridge asked.

"Uh... No, how could I run away? Hehe." Dan Bilton responded after a pause, and laughed twice.

Aldridge glanced at Danbier again with his icy blue eyes, and saw that the coolness of his tailbone was rising again.

"Hmph! You don't want to know the consequences of those who betray me! Your soul has no secrets in my eyes."

Hearing Aldridge's cold voice, Danbier smirked twice and waved goodbye. Of course, it is impossible for Aldridge to trust someone casually. Aldridge had been staring at him before, but it was not for staring at him, nor was it purely to scare Danbier. From the soul up and down, it hinted that if he wanted to violate the agreed agreement with Aldridge, he would involuntarily choke his neck until he strangled himself to death.

Aldridge also thought in his heart that this world is really barren of magic, and it would take so long to give such a hint to an ordinary old man who has no power. In the world he was in before, he only needed one look to make him People like Danbier commit suicide directly, and it takes as long as they are now.

Aldridge has come to an end here, we just need to wait for Ronan to come back and assign some people to him to get the goods and wait for the royal fleet to go to sea. The last time the royal family went to sea is a month later, and the time is still very tight. Yatan may collect Not enough cargo to fill a ship.

On the other side, in the eastern edge of the outer city, in the slums of Hell commonly known as Teldrassil, Kress is sitting and drinking in the only bar here. This resolute gladiator wears a sleeveless leather armor and carries a shield on his back. , boasting a dagger at his waist, just sitting there alone drinking and eating side dishes, with a big money bag next to the wine glass.

Countless greedy eyes stared at Kress's purse and the equipment on his body. Kress's huge physique had been completely ignored. A few gangsters quietly walked out of the tavern, and then scattered in all directions, heading towards their gang quarters. They ran, but they didn't notice that they were being followed, and several disguised gladiators followed them quietly.

After waiting for a while, Kress vaguely heard the conversation outside the tavern.

"Damn it, I knew you guys got the news too!"

"Why, this is a big fish, don't try to swallow it all by yourself!"

"But that guy looks strong, and he has a weapon!"

"What are you afraid of! He is alone, and we have so many brothers. After killing him, we will share the gold coins equally!"

"But what if he still has friends around?"

"I know all the guys in the tavern. He is just a stranger. He must be a country bumpkin who just came to Teldrassil. Will you do it? If you don't do it, we will lose a penny!"

Outside the tavern, several gang bosses and dozens of younger brothers had already quarreled. According to estimates, the guy inside had at least 30 gold coins in his wallet. It's all just barely surviving by squeezing those who are weaker.

When have they ever seen so much money? After they succeed, they will inevitably have a bloody battle. After all, there are so many people, and there will be less after all. If they can keep it alone, the money is enough for them to leave the slums and rent The store is alive and well!

"But he's still in Papa John's tavern!"

"Then wait until he comes out!"

After eating the last dried fish and drinking the last beer in the glass in one gulp, Kress opened the money bag, took out a few copper coins and threw them on the table, and "accidentally" leaked the other golden coins in the pocket. Kress even heard the sound of swallowing saliva from around, and chuckled disdainfully in his heart, these dregs are not worthy of sympathy at all. Then Kress got up and stuffed the money bag into the leather armor of his jacket and walked out of the tavern.

Some other gangsters who stayed behind in the tavern looked at each other and followed them out. The whole tavern suddenly became quiet, and there were not many people left. Father John, who was wiping the glass, shook his head. If you lose your life, this slum is basically a no-things zone. Unless the nobleman dies here, the royal city guards and people from the inspection hall will never come.

This is a gathering place for desperate people, there are new residents every month, some are bankrupt businessmen, some are people who came to Teldrassil with hope but were knocked down by the cruel reality, there are quite a few of them They were all cheated of their property, or simply disappeared and then appeared in a few months, but they were missing something.

Teldrassil has too many floating population every day. Unless a report is received, no one will know that the outsider died in that corner of the slum again. All the glamor of Teldrassil seems to be inapplicable here. This is a place abandoned by Teldrassil.

Such a place is also the best place for Ronan to cover up his dark dealings. The plan was to clear out the local gang first, and then replace it with Ronan's minions, who would still fight each other, but they would all end up with Kress in charge.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one knows them, weaves a large net in the slums, and finally completely controls the slums in the dark, but on the bright side, the slums continue to maintain their chaotic appearance, and Ronan also decided to follow the example of a TV series he watched in his previous life. According to the practice of the intelligence chief, he trained the vagrants to be his own eyes and ears, let his sight spread throughout Teldrassil and radiate to the surrounding areas, and began to establish his own large intelligence network.

In the end, several seemingly insignificant new forces will appear in Teldrassil. They seem to have no connection with each other, but they all belong to Ronan in the end. This method is ready for Ronan to experiment with and wait until the hero system cools down. He is recruiting a hero to replace Aldridge's sea caravan, and then let Aldridge lead some troops to Gaoling, establish an intelligence network and certain forces in Gaoling, and prepare for Ronan's future pursuit of power in Gaoling.
