Chapter 535: Chapter 435, Ren Jun’s Plea for Help_2
“We don’t have a precise plan yet, the entire city is still trying to catch Lei Li and bring him back as soon as possible,” Rebecca said.
Fang Hao nodded but didn’t say anything more.
After all, he didn’t have a better solution either.
Fang Hao did possess significant power, and his subordinates were very strong.
But the problem with capturing the faceless man was that there was nowhere to start, which was the real difficulty.
“By the way, the soldiers you brought are quite well-equipped,” Rebecca suddenly looked up and curiously glanced at Fang Hao.
She was probably referring to the equipnt of the Lionheart Knights.
The Temple Guardians’ gear they were wearing was indeed very eye-catching.
“It’s not bad.”
“So, I want to order so of the sa armor, you na the price,” Rebecca said.
Fang Hao wasn’t surprised, he inferred her intention as soon as she spoke.
But the Temple Guardians’ gear required Fine Iron as a material, and Fang Hao had already used all the Fine Iron in his territory. Although there was ongoing forging with the dwarves, it wasn’t sothing that could be mass-produced easily.
After so thought, Fang Hao said: “With the golden armor, we don’t have any surplus. We do have a Storm Heavy Armor Set though, which is suitable for the Lyss City Army.”
Rebecca stared at Fang Hao, finding hard to believe his claim about the shortage of golden armor.
Over 200 cavalryn, all wearing golden armor.
Why is it that when she wants to buy, there’s suddenly a shortage?
“You don’t want to sell? Or are you afraid my offer is too low?” Rebecca stared at Fang Hao.
“Neither, we genuinely don’t have enough. If you want one or two sets, I can spare them from the army. But equipping an entire army is impossible,” Fang Hao said directly.
“All right, build two sets for , and I’ll also check out your Storm gear. If it’s good enough, I might consider buying in bulk,” Rebecca replied without hesitation.
Now, Rebecca realized she had underestimated Fang Hao.
This guy, every ti he ca over, he would surprise her more and more.
Rebecca was fully confident that not only was Fang Hao wealthy, his military power was surely not inferior to her own Lyss City.
She couldn’t afford to treat him just as a cloth rchant anymore.
“That can be arranged, but just a heads up, this armor isn’t cheap, I won’t be giving it to you for free,” Fang Hao declared at once.
Rebecca glared at him angrily, “How much? You make it sound like I’m taking advantage of you.”
Fang Hao calculated in his mind, purple gear, even at the Trade Alliance settlent, was priced very high.
After so thought, he quoted, “That kind of golden armor would cost 1 million Warfire Coins per set.”
What!
Rebecca, who was drinking water, spat it right out.
One million for a single set, in Warfire Coins no less. He was practically robbing her blind.
“Have you gone mad?”
“Why would I? Each set is purple gear, even at the Trade Alliance auction, it would fetch a higher price. If it weren’t for our good relations, I wouldn’t even sell it to you,” Fang Hao imdiately replied.
If it weren’t for their previous collaborations and Rolana’s ongoing partnership with Rebecca.
Fang Hao wouldn’t really sell to her.
He sold gear that was a notch below his own territory’s power level.
This purple gear, which even he hadn’t widely distributed, to let her have two sets was already a lot.
“Fine, deliver these two sets, I need soone to check if they are worth the price, then I can sign off on them,” Rebecca nodded in agreent.
“Sure, soone will deliver them tomorrow.”
The two reached an agreent and chatted for a while.
“By the way, Aubrey is hosting a banquet the day after tomorrow. You should co too, it’s a good chance to et the others in the city.”
As Fang Hao was leaving, Rebecca added.
Aubrey was hosting a banquet?
Fang Hao had no interest in this soft-hearted City Lord.
But since Rebecca had said so, it would be impolite to decline.
“Okay, I’ll be there,” Fang Hao nodded and promptly left the study.
…
After Fang Hao left.
The maid walked in again, “Ma’am, the Knight Commander Haber would like to see you.”
Rebecca nodded and followed the maid out.
They walked through the long hallway.
The maid spoke, “Ma’am, Mr Fang Hao’s voice sounds different from before!”
When Rebecca heard this, her heart tightened.
When it all started, Fang Hao spoke with a falsetto voice and his movents were very effeminate.
However, he eventually returned to normal, indistinguishable from any other man.
In that mont, Rebecca realized that Fang Hao had been pretending all along.
She thought back to when he had seen her completely naked, when she was chatting with him and allowing him to help her dress and put on jewelry.
Her cheeks flad up as she flushed in embarrassnt.
That damn guy.
“You’re not allowed to ntion this to anyone.” Rebecca said sternly.
“Yes, ma’am.”
The two of them walked out of the City Lord’s mansion, escorted by the guards, and boarded a carriage.
…
After dinner.
Fang Hao requested to have the [Temple Guardians Set] and [Storm Fine Iron Set] delivered to the City Lord’s Mansion.
He opened the Book of Lords to check the chat channel.
Three days had passed since the task of relocating the demon rat population was given.
Because there was no ti limit, the demon rat swarms wouldn’t disappear as usual.
This resulted in a prolonged battle.
So lords were still battling the demon rats.
The neighbouring lords were supporting each other, discussing how to exterminate the demon rats. After all, if left unattended, it could pose an even greater danger.
Just as Fang Hao was about to go to bed, a maid ca to him and said soone wanted to see him.
Upon reaching the front hall, the maid brought a visitor inside.
He had assud it was soone sent by Rebecca, but it turned out to be a transmigrator he knew.
That transmigrator had miraculously survived the Faceless Ones.
His na was Ren Jun, it seed.
“Boss Fang Hao.” Ren Jun called out imdiately.
The heroes accompanying Fang Hao looked at him when they heard this title.
“Um, Ren Jun, why are you in the city again?” Fang Hao asked curiously.
“Boss, I had no choice. A few more people have gone missing recently. I had to hide in the city during the day and didn’t dare to co until night.” Ren Jun said with a grimace.
Ren Jun had co to the city today to buy supplies and originally planned to leave during the day.
When he heard that Fang Hao was there, he imdiately ca to find Fang Hao.
The missing transmigrators that Ren Jun ntioned were probably the corpses that Rebecca found a few days ago.
However, all those people were already dead.
“Is there danger recently?” Fang Hao asked, frowning.
Considering that Rebecca had already clashed with the Faceless Ones, they probably didn’t have the energy to target the transmigrators anymore.
But judging by Ren Jun’s appearance, danger was still present.
“There is danger. Boss Fang Hao, can you help us?” Ren Jun asked, rubbing his hands nervously.
“You guys?”
“Yes, there are three of us, all lords located near Lyss City.”
“And how do you want to help you?” Fang Hao asked.
As for the Faceless Ones in Lyss City.
Although Fang Hao had remained silent in the chat channel, he had Fu Lei warn other lords near Lyss City about a Faceless organization.
The warning was given, but whether these nearby lords saw it or whether they believed it could not be guaranteed.
Furthermore, Fang Hao couldn’t assign them protection.
If he were too enthusiastic, they might think that he was the scamr with ulterior motives.
Now that Ren Jun was asking for help, Fang Hao didn’t know what kind of help he wanted.
“We want to leave, but we don’t know where to go. I wonder if we can take shelter in your territory for so ti.” Ren Jun said.
“Leave your territory? You’re giving it up?”
“We want to stay alive. Recently, all three of us have noticed people spying around our territories. The other two might manage sohow, but I have lost my Book of Lords, and I can’t exchange supplies. I can only co to the city. If this goes on, they will take away sooner or later.” Ren Jun said with a grimace.
Last ti he was captured by the Faceless Ones, they took his Book of Lords, and he hadn’t managed to retrieve it.
Luckily, even without the Book of Lords, the villagers in his territory recognized him. Otherwise, he wouldn’t even be able to return to his territory.
“So the other two agreed to leave and seek shelter first?”
