Chapter 48 The Missing Squad(2/2)

But this room is an exception. It is slightly decorated. At least a piece of fur from an unknown animal is spread on the floor. In addition, two swords, a shield, and a stuffed deer head are hung on the wall.

The 'sir' mentioned by the clerk was indeed not the old knight in the document, but a somewhat stout middle-aged man. The man wore a mink robe and a soft hat decorated with long feathers, and was not wearing a military uniform.

An aristocratic outfit.

After learning that they were adventurers, the other party showed great enthusiasm and came up to chat with them.

"He is a little nobleman."

Sophie stared at the feathers on the man's hat, and quietly reminded Fang Plover of the other party's identity. The baron with the feathers on his head was exactly what Aitaria called such people.

Most of these people are from noble knights, which is consistent with their status here, but to hold important positions in the city guard, they obviously belong to a well-known family behind them.

Of course, Fang Yu knew that the city guards of Du Lun were also divided into three, six, and nine grades. Judging from the elite level of the soldiers outside, this one obviously had an extraordinary origin, which explained the other party's identity from the side.

He asked Sophie to come with him just to obtain this information. Miss Attila was not familiar with the human world, and he was not very clear about these details. Although there was Sylwede in the team who knew more about the aristocracy, but

Considering her status at the moment, the Princess of Silver Vislan is more suitable.

The selector naturally lacks awe for the aboriginal nobles, but this is a military camp after all, not to mention that the other party is quite enthusiastic, so Fang Plover also saluted the other party with the etiquette of the aboriginal people.

But the other party shook hands with them instead. The aborigines are keen on the etiquette of the earth, but the chosen people imitated the aborigines in every way. This can be regarded as a scenery gained by Aitaria.

After shaking hands, the baron also got straight to the point: "I heard that you are planning to go to Dulon?"

Fang Plover nodded.

The baron touched the short beard on his chin and said thoughtfully: "Theoretically, the consul issued an order to block the road, so I shouldn't let you pass."

"But there are no exceptions. If you can help us..."

Since he had suffered a loss in Grande, Fang Plover took the initiative to abdicate in favor of others during this negotiation. He glanced at Atila, and Miss Elf said, "Excuse me, what's the matter?"

The baron looked at the elf lady's pointed ears with curiosity. Although it was a bit rude, in the main continent of Kaolin, both Avenquin elves and forest elves are very rare.

Then he shook his head: "No, this is not my personal matter..."

"To be precise... you are helping the Du Lun City Guards, so I can give you an exception..."

Then he talked about it: "That's it, not long ago we sent a small team to the direction of Ash Mountain Forest, about half a month ago. After they went to that place, no news came back...

…”

"So you want us to help you find someone?" Sophie suddenly interjected.

The baron nodded.

She asked back: "Can't your soldiers do such a simple thing for you?"

"Well..." The Baron seemed a little hesitant: "You have also seen that this is an order from above. We have to station here, and the manpower is far from enough..."

Fang Plover couldn't see this at all, the manpower here was obviously very sufficient.

Aitila also frowned: "Then I can ask you why that team went to Ash Mountain Forest. It is well known that ordinary people will not go to that place."

"Well..."

"Sir, adventurers need to understand their missions. You should know this. Otherwise, no matter how great the benefits are, we will not accept the mission easily."

The baron seemed a little hesitant and took two steps back and forth.

But he finally made up his mind, turned around and nodded: "Okay, actually the reason is very simple, it is to find something."

"something?"

"This is an order from above. I don't know the details...it seems to be looking for a red stone..."

Etila thought for a moment: "Our mission is just to find people, we don't need to find those stones, right?"

"Of course, of course," the Baron said loudly: "If you can help me find their whereabouts, you will do me a big favor!"

Attila nodded and then looked at Fang Plover.

There was actually a mission prompt in Fang Yu's system. The difficulty was not high, but the D-level mission was beyond the scope of finding people. He thought it might be because of the destination. The Ashes Mountain Forest was rumored to be dangerous.

Being the place where Nicol Bolas fell has a certain bonus to the difficulty of the mission itself.

However, they were going to Ash Mountain Forest originally, so this matter was not too troublesome.

He subconsciously wanted to agree, but suddenly, as if he was blessed, he asked out of nowhere: "Do you want to go to Ash Mountain Forest? I heard that place...?"

"Of course, of course..." The Baron seemed to be afraid that he would not agree. He had probably found many adventurers in the past few days, but they were all rejected one by one. He naturally knew in his heart what kind of place the Ash Mountain Forest was.

He said cautiously: "Letting you pass the customs is just incidental... You can treat this as an ordinary entrusted task, and I can give you another reward..."

Fang Yu was stunned. He said before that he just wanted a map, because the data said that the Dulum City Guards had a detailed map of the Ashes Mountain Forest area. But he didn't expect that the other party would actually increase the price after he hesitated.

This was an unexpected surprise.

So he never mentioned the map again, for fear that the other party would regret it, so he just nodded calmly.

He turned around and was about to ask Atila to draw up the adventurer contract, but suddenly he frowned, turned around again, and said, "Wait a minute, I have another request."

"Is there another request?" The baron then showed a hint of dissatisfaction. He felt that these people seemed to be a little greedy. He felt that the conditions he had given were already very loose.

However, Fang Yu shook his head: "It's nothing else, I just have certain requirements for the contract method."

"Oh?" Fang Chuan's eyebrows relaxed: "What's the request?"

"That's it... we went to Dulun because of a task at hand, and we don't have much time. In fact, if we want to complete your task, the deadline is even more urgent." Fang Yu suddenly found that he had some bad habits and told lies.

When I came, my face stopped blushing and my heart stopped beating.

He didn't know for a moment whether this was good or bad, so he just continued: "So I hope this contract can be completed using a remote contract."

"Remote contract?" The baron was stunned.

He seemed a little hesitant, "Remote contracts are certainly not unfeasible, but Mr. Roman is not that easy to talk to..." Remote contracts are naturally one of the business goddess's 'business methods', which means that under her witness, the client can

The reward is first handed over to its divine power for safekeeping, and after the task is completed, the information is automatically transferred to the entrusted party.

However, since it requires the use of divine power, Ms. Roman's commission is naturally very high, so it is rare for adventurers to have such a contract.

However, Fang Yu rarely cared about this loss, shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter, we will bear the handling fees."

The Baron seemed to be unable to find any reason to refute for the moment, and could only agree: "In that case... well, let's do it. But if those people are still alive, you must at least send them to a safe place.

"

"Of course if you die..." He paused: "I also need some evidence to prove it."

"Sure," Fang Plover agreed readily: "Don't worry, Mr. Sir, the balance is in the balance, and Ms. Luo Man will guarantee your rights."

"The balance is above." The baron nodded.

So the two parties drew up the contract under the witness of Ms. Roman, stamped it with the heraldic wax seal of the Goddess of Commerce, and kept it one by one. Fang Yu then said goodbye to the other party and left Tulip Castle under the leadership of the secretary.

The three of them walked out of the city gate and walked across the suspension bridge. After the clerk turned back, Attila whispered: "Ed, actually we are not in that hurry."

"I know, Miss Attila." Fang Pliong replied.

Sophie obviously heard the implication of his words: "So you changed your mind before, right? Remote contracts are rare, the goddess takes one-third of the commission, and even aborigines rarely use this kind of contract...

…”

"Did you discover anything, Ed?" Attila also asked at this time.

Fang Yu glanced at the Yujin Castle behind him, shook his head slightly, and only used his eyes to indicate that the issue would be discussed later.

Naturally, he saw something, and these things were related to them.
