Chapter 850
Chapter 850
On that day, the group of [Cang Qiangwei] did not return to the base until late at night.
It was not until early the next morning that they returned with their tired bodies.
Because of Cao Shurui’s perfect raid that didn’t let them go, they got the maximum time to act. At the same time, because of the gathering of leaders there, there is a lot of information.
In just one day and one night, they contacted their partners in the kingdom and captured all important warehouses in all departments of the Eight Books. Because of such high-intensity actions, after returning to the mansion, the group fell asleep directly in the hall.
Upon seeing this, several servants hurriedly moved the ladies back to their houses.
…
At this time, Cao Shurui was a guest in Geff’s mansion.
Cao Shurui, who was walking in the royal capital in the morning, happened to meet Ge Gefu who had finished his patrol. So, at the kind invitation of Geoff, Cao Shurui followed him to his home.
“Thank you very much for what happened last time, Your Excellency K. Your Majesty has heard of your deeds, but I really want to see you.”
He took off his armor and was wearing ordinary household clothes, and he said this with a large glass of water, with only the sword beside him.
He has not given up the idea of recruiting Cao Shurui for the kingdom. If you can get the help of such a magic caster, even if the empire comes again, he will not be the only one to face the high-end combat power of the empire. Even if he stepped into the realm of heroes and was allowed to use all five national treasures to enhance his combat effectiveness, that would only last for a while.
In the face of the existence that has also stepped into the realm of heroes, it is too difficult for him to gain an advantage in a one-to-two situation.
“It’s a pity. I chose to reject the country’s solicitation. For me now, the identity of an adventurer is more suitable.”
Shaking the gold medal on his wrist, Cao Shurui smiled freely.
Joining the Adventurer’s Association means that you can only fight for humans, and you can’t get involved in matters between humans. This matter is also clear to Gu Geoff.
Rejecting him for this reason is unassailable.
“…Oh, okay. Everyone has aspirations, if you don’t want to, then forget it. However, if you change your mind, the kingdom will be vacant.”
The expression of loss was only a moment. Afterwards, Gu Geoff stopped mentioning this matter.
The two talked about anecdotes in the royal capital, and talked about how to improve their strength. It was a good time.
Although he came from a humble background, Gu Gefu has a strong heart, a firm will, and a simple willingness to work hard. Above this, he still has a good talent for swordsmanship. It is not surprising that such a person can step into the realm of heroes.
Although his swordsmanship seemed immature to Cao Shurui, his swordsmanship was considered top among all mankind with the combination of as many as six martial arts he had learned.
It was a murderous sword with a strong mercenary style. Unlike the swordsmanship that Cao Shurui learned, in Ge Gefu’s tactics, using both hands and feet is common. Everything is just to kill the enemy.
Soon, it was noon.
“It’s time for lunch. Lord K, how about staying and having a swig with me?”
Although he was only talking most of the time, Gu Geoff still felt that today’s conversation was very enjoyable. Looking at his posture, I am afraid that he still plans to stay drunk or not.
“It doesn’t have to be, Lord Soldier. I didn’t expect that time flies so fast, I must go back. If there is a chance next time, let’s talk again.”
Even if he understands Geoff’s idea, Cao Shurui does not intend to continue wasting time here. The gap between the concepts and strengths of the two is too great. Cao Shurui admired Geff’s character, but did not agree with his ideas.
“Well, that’s a shame.”
With a sigh, Ge Gefu got up and escorted Cao Shurui to the front of the mansion.
“By the way, Lord K. Finally, there is one more thing to tell you.”
When he was parting, Gu Geoff suddenly waved back the waiter and spoke in a deep voice.
“Do you remember the knights who attacked the village at the time. Although they were wearing the equipment of the Imperial Army, they were actually members of the Sleng State. Recently, there is intelligence that they have seen them near Ye Lan Tier. The armed squad marked by the religious nation. Because the opponent’s aura is too strong, even if the investigators sent to the front mountain bronze adventurer, they can only take a look at it from a distance.”
Staring at Cao Shurui, Ge Gefu looked serious:
“They are most likely the Special Intelligence Force of the Church of the Kingdom [Six-Colored Sacred Code]. Considering their combat power far surpassing the Bronze Grade, their identity is probably the strongest force in the State of Slian-[The Dark Saint Classic] people.”
“I haven’t seen them either. However, according to those who have seen them, they are the last strongest guardians of mankind. Everyone who is eligible to join is a strong person who has at least reached the realm of heroes. For the task, they will even be equipped with powerful magic items that are said to be left by the six great gods. At this point in time, people like them appear on the border. It is really hard to imagine that they are to clean up the monsters.”
“–Maybe, their target is you.”
With a self-reproaching expression on his face, Geoffrey squeezed out these words.
If he was the one who annihilated the knight, there would be no need to worry about such a thing.
The religious country is a country established by the arrival of the six great gods in the past. It is not a strange thing that they will master wide-area surveillance magic. Then, it is natural to know that Cao Shurui destroyed a group of cavalry.
And Cao Shurui, who refused the king’s invitation, might return to Ye Lan Tier. For this reason, Gu Gefu will remind him.
[Props left by the six gods? What God left… well. It might be an artifact. interesting. 】
With the brilliance of the eyes, Cao Shurui nodded in thanks:
“Thank you for your reminder. Even me, facing a troop composed of that kind of people is very troublesome.”
Waving goodbye, Cao Shurui returned to the mansion of Rafasi.
At this time, the girls of [Cang Qiangwei] have woken up and are resting in the hall.
Seeing him back, Lafasi immediately put down the book in her hand, picked up a few short sticks on the table next to her, and walked towards him.
With an extremely relaxed smile on her face, the blonde girl looked shining. At this time, she swept away the haze in her heart, and her charm was better than ever.
“These are all the sceptre props we seized yesterday.”
With that, the girl spread her hands forward.
The five short sticks stacked together were placed on her hands.
Cao Shurui did not pretend, and immediately called out the system to locate the material.
Reaching out and pulling out the only black one among the five short sticks, he nodded in satisfaction.
——This is an unused resurrection sceptre. With it, the first collection goal is complete.
“I only want this one. You can take care of the rest.”
“Huh?… Then, we will accept it.”
After hesitating for a while, seeing that Cao Shurui seemed to be serious, Lafasi put the short sticks back on the table.
“This is considered to be two clearings. Once the things are obtained, the transaction will be over. Goodbye, everyone of [Cang Qiangwei].”
When the system extracted the power from the short staff, Cao Shurui said goodbye without hesitation.
Turning into blood mist, he controlled the wind to float outside the house, floated up high, then turned into lightning, and flew straight toward Ye Lantil.
With the speed of information transmission in this era, even considering the existence of magic, it would take at least a few days. In a few days, what if those people can’t find him and leave?
