On the second floor of an unremarkable residential house in the residential area of ​​Messina, Charles sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, admiring the decorations in the room with great interest.

The walls around the room were painted with lime with light green dye added, and there was a cheap oil painting of the landscape hanging on the wall, the flowers in the earthen vase on the cabinet were a bit sparse, and the window on the side of the street had white shutters. Sunlight filtered in through the gap.

Opposite Charles, a charming young woman on the sofa was also observing him.

Beside the young woman stood the girl who had attracted Charles after accosting him just now. The girl was holding a tray with a money bag made of dark blue silk on it.

The young woman thought that Charles would be angry after being deceived, so she did it without saying a word, but she didn't expect that Charles didn't take herself seriously at all.

Charles sighed in his heart that the water pirates responded quickly enough to find him in half a day, and then brought him to this stronghold in the city.

The young woman saw that Charles was a little bored, so she raised her hand and waved it gently. The girl beside her held the tray and walked to Charles' side, then bent down and held the tray by Charles's hand.

At the same time, the young woman said, "We don't intend to offend the Count. What happened last night was just an accident. This is a small compensation."

Charles turned his head and saw the purse and the girl who was bent over behind the purse.

He casually opened the money bag on the tray, reached in and felt it. There were about twenty gold Ole coins in it, which could buy tens of thousands of flowers and bread.

Charles took out his hand and waved it. The money bag disappeared instantly and went into the storage ring.

He said lazily, "Because you have done a lot of things for my grandfather, Duke Redkin, I will assume that what happened last night never happened."

No need to guess, these water pirates must be the dogs that his grandfather raised to bite the Bischberg kingdom.

Hearing that Charles did not pursue what happened last night, the young woman breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time Charles asked: "Are you familiar with the terrain of the Messina region?"

The expression on the young woman's face remained unchanged, and she asked, "Is there anything we can do to help His Excellency the Count?"

These pirates are really familiar with the terrain around the old nest, after all, they often have to avoid the crusade.

Charles took out a tattered parchment roll from the storage ring, put it on the tray of the girl next to it, and waved her to take it to the young woman.

After the young woman opened the parchment, she found a treasure map on it.

She looked at it for a while, then shook her head and said, "I don't know this place."

Charles said, "Then find someone to ask."

Then the purse appeared in his hand just now, he tossed the purse, and then said, "I found that place, and my gratitude is a hundredfold."

The young woman was startled and said, "Your Count is not afraid that we will find this place and steal it?"

Charles smiled indifferently and said, "Without the 'key', you will only lose your life if you go. It's better to take my thank you gift and go to spend the day."

Seeing that the young woman was still suspicious, Charles continued: "Some artifacts and the like are deadly poisons for you, and they are not as real as gold coins, aren't they?"

After he finished speaking, he didn't care about the young woman's reaction, got up and said, "Give you ten days. When you have news, go to the hotel of the Adventurer's Guild to find me. If you can't find it, return it to me. I will ask other questions. people go."

After finishing speaking, Charles left the house with the bag of flowers and bread without looking back.

At the end of August, the sun was still hot. It was easy to change from frugal to extravagant, and from extravagant to frugal. Charles began to miss the air-conditioned room, but at this time he was considering whether to find someone who Elizabeth had mentioned to him.

Elizabeth's caravan has always been Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. Before Charles' lack of strength and experience, he couldn't see the level of the guys who hid their strength.

Just the bald-headed second-in-command Aubrey, the last time Charles met him in the underground labyrinth, he could see that this guy was no less powerful than Gunnar Nordahl.

And that Tony, don't look at him as just a chef, his real strength is a little weaker than Aubrey's but limited, so it's no wonder that he and the queen have a daughter, Barnett I can hold back.

When Charles and Elizabeth were chatting, they heard that there used to be a quirky mage Mafia in the caravan. Her strength seemed average, but her research direction was very unpopular, so she made a very dark attack, and every time she made a move, she didn't save her life.

At that time, Charles asked what kind of magic the Mafia was using. Elizabeth told him that before he could learn that kind of magic, he might kill himself first, so don't ask.

After Charles rubbed Elizabeth's shoulders and beat her back, Elizabeth told him that Mafia was studying "specialized magic", the kind that his head maid used to eliminate mosquitoes.

Charles' eyes lit up at that time, and he wanted to learn that magic since he was a child. As a result, Elizabeth took out the feather duster and gave him a backhand blow to his head to calm him down.

Elizabeth said that she could only use that magic to kill a parasite on the fruit or something. Whether someone can learn it depends on the odds, so it is better to learn what can be learned first.

So now Charles's mind is moving. He heard that after Mafia left the caravan, he returned to his hometown on the forest seaside in the west of Bischberg Kingdom to concentrate on research. It is better to take this opportunity to visit.

The more he thought about it, the more moved he became. When he arrived at the hotel, he had already made up his mind to find an opportunity to visit the old man in Elizabeth's name.

The hotels under the Adventurer's Guild are in good condition, ranging from the cheapest rooms to high-end luxury rooms.

The room that the duty manager prepared for Charles was naturally upscale. The door was not opened with a key, but a magic lock that was opened with a room card.

However, this kind of lock can't be difficult for Charles. If he wants to pick the lock, a magic power will break it by force.

The people in the union are very efficient. Charles just turned on the air conditioner to cool down the room and the staff came over with a stack of information about the water thief.

It's just that Charles stared at the eldest sister sent by the union for a while, and after confirming that the door of the room was closed, he asked, "Do you have a brother, and you and your brother look alike?"

The elder sister smiled without saying a word, and nodded lightly.

Charles took the information she handed over and looked at it there.

At the same time, he asked in a low voice, "I'll kill these dogs to eat. The family has no opinion."

The eldest sister also whispered: "Young master, you can eat enough."

Charles nodded with satisfaction, and the fate of these water pirates was settled between these two sentences.

How could Messina City, as the front line of resistance against Duke Redkin, not have the spy he sent, this eldest sister who works in the Adventurer's Guild is obviously one of them.

She looks a lot like the magician named Keith in the Elizabeth caravan who once made the handsome man's plan to stabilize the bandit female spy, so Charles recognized her.

As the saying goes, it is up to the owner to beat a dog. Charles also wanted to ask his grandfather what level of hitting these dogs was enough, but as a result, his grandfather told him that they were beaten to death as soon as possible.

Those dogs can be found casually, but there is only one smart, lively and lovely grandson, and it is obvious to Duke Redkin what is more important.

At this time, Charles smelled an unusual taste from it~lightnovelpub.net~ Duke Redkin's biggest goal is to become a king, and now the domestic situation has become strange because of the king's health, so he began to shrink outward, turning to Handle domestic affairs.

If those water thieves caused him trouble on the Bischberg Kingdom side at this time, he didn't have much energy to give them shelter as before, so he might as well give Charles his reputation.

While looking at the information on the water pirates, Charles said in a low voice: "Let the family go to Andorra to find Diana, and it's a matter of the 'Leaping Plan'."

"Give me another piece of information about Louis Rebach, this is not urgent, I will stay here for a few days, but as detailed as possible."

The old lady nodded slightly.

After reading the information on the water pirates, Charles said, "I'll trouble you again, and help me count the tasks that are difficult and unsolved for a long time in the labor unions in the Bischberg Kingdom."

He plans to do a wave of difficult tasks in various places from now until the arrival of the cold winter. Judging from his experience in Qiqiu City, many of them were reserved by Allen for his reputation.
