358 A hint
“You say?” Zhao Xu’s current vision was already not limited to the offense of ordinary people.
in fact, in his opinion, the conflict just now was not much different from fifty ants offending him.
if it wasn’t for the fact that he couldn’t be sure if these 50 ants lived by robbing, he might not have let them go.
As long as Madam Betty’s suggestion was reasonable, he could accept it.
After all, he was now playing the role of a goddess’s priest, not a Bandit.
“Priest, if you allow to, I would like to release all these cavalryn.”
this was completely different from how conflicted madam betty had looked when they were first surrounded and she had gritted her teeth as she ordered her subordinates to go over and help zhao xu.
At this mont, it was as if she had beco the representative of these cavalryn, and she was begging Zhao Xu for rcy.
as for her guards and the captain of the guards, they all looked calm and did not seem to be indignant.
When Madam Betty saw that Zhao Xu was silent, she said, ” when I get back, I can use the low-circle arcane magic scrolls I have in my hands as a price for their lives.
when zhao xu saw this, his eyes continued to fall on the leader, rupert, who had ordered them to attack him in the first place.
after feeling his gaze, rupert, who was trapped in the spider web and was panting after struggling for a while, imdiately understood what he ant.
he directly pulled out the dagger tied to his thigh, which imdiately flashed with a dazzling silver light.
Then, Rupert suddenly turned tai ‘a upside down and stabbed himself in the thigh that wasn’t fatal. In an instant, cold sweat poured out of his forehead, and all the blood disappeared.
But Rupert gritted her teeth and didn’t fall to the ground. Instead, she looked at Zhao Xu and t his gaze.
do you need a second strike?
zhao xu was a little surprised to see this. he didn’t think that rupert would be so decisive.
at first, zhao xu was just waiting for the other party to beg for rcy. after all, after this battle, the other party was bound to be of no use to him. whether it was the original organization or madam betty, they would both beat the other party down to the ground and trample him all the way down to the bottom of the valley so that he could experience the difference between the clouds and the deep valley.
But the way the other party apologized to Zhao Xu with his sword had saved his own life.
this was also the epito of the strict difference in hierarchy that arthur had accumulated over thousands of years. small figures could only use more extre thods to show their reflection to the big shots.
zhao xu calmly turned around and didn’t care about the aftermath of the battle at all. he just went back to the carriage.
as for what happened next, it was naturally up to madam betty, who had pleaded for rcy on behalf of the cavalryn, to carry out the order.
As for the scrolls, he naturally didn’t care.
After the three of them entered the carriage, the coachman flicked the soft whip in his hand and prepared to set off.
“captain, the leader of the cavalryn initially wanted to kill us to prevent the secret from being exposed. however, we players have resurrection stones to resurrect us. Isn’t it aningless for the other party to do this?”
zheng xinyun bit her lip as she analyzed the situation.
Zhao Xu understood that the other party’s thinking was still quite pure and hadn’t completely changed, so he explained, ” a player who’s like a rootless duckweed doesn’t have enough evidence. and if you really find a successful channel to complain, i’m afraid that many things have already been done.”
killing us is the most important thing. As for keeping it a secret, that’s just secondary.
it was only then that ellington seed to wake up from a dream. “sir, then why should we let them go?”
As for Rupert’s self-stabbing, he didn’t feel anything. Those who offended his teacher deserved death, so what was the point of self-stabbing a few tis?
zhao xu looked at the curtains of the carriage that had returned to normal. “can you kill them all? if i really wanted to kill him, that shot i fired wouldn’t have been a spider web, but a fireball.”
as he spoke, he looked at the two of them helplessly. as a native of arthur, he had obviously co into contact with humans who only had one life.
why was he so angry now? the other party had offended them, so he was going to kill them without hesitation.
It made him look more like a player.
It was just that evil barbarians could do such things, but kind priests like them had to exercise so restraint.
He heard that Madam Betty was willing to pay an expensive magic scroll to redeem the group of people.
zhao xu understood now. as soon as the other party heard quirrell’s na, they would probably imdiately think of how to arrange the cavalry.
when he thought about how he might be able to control her in the future, zhao xu naturally gave up on trying to get rid of her completely.
If a person like him wanted revenge, he would not base himself on the tool itself. Instead, he would go beyond the tool and directly pursue the mastermind behind the tool.
at this mont, the entire carriage suddenly ca to a halt, its speed abruptly decreasing.
the coachman outside stuck his head in. ” sir, that lady is driving the carriage over. ”
after the coachman turned around and went back in, zhao xu also stuck his head out of the carriage and saw that madam betty had changed from the gentle and weak look she had when she was sitting in the carriage.
At this mont, the other party was holding his youngest son in his arms, completely relying on the strength of his legs to control the warhorse under him. His appearance was sowhat heroic and valiant.
“mr. priest, one of the wheels of the carriage we were in just now is broken, so we can only ride horses for the ti being. however, the youngest son is weak, and i’m worried that he’ll get the cold wind from this snow. thus, i would like to ask you if you could let my youngest son get on the carriage to avoid the snow.”
There were still 12 riders behind Madam Betty at the mont. It was clear that she had managed to recruit so of them after the encounter just now because of Zhao Xu.
The two people sitting in the carriage heard Madam Betty’s request through the curtain. Although they looked at each other and felt that sothing was wrong, they couldn’t tell what it was.
“let’s co up together,” Zhao Xu said as he looked at the thin layer of snow that had accumulated on their bodies.
it would have been fine if it were just the two of them, but he had noticed the wheel. with the help of 50 cavalryn, madam betty could repair the wheel without any pressure.
At the end of the day, Madam Betty had this idea in mind and insisted on joining them on this trip to show her face.
she needed to get closer to zhao xu and continue to expand their relationship.
after betty and her son got on the carriage, she found an angle to lean on. her son also lay quietly in her arms and fell asleep.
“Mr. Priest, how may I address you?” what’s going on? ” Madam Betty asked, thinking that the journey would not be short.
Zhao Xu didn’t have any requests to keep this a secret, so he also introduced himself and the others.
it was as if madam betty had noticed how difficult it was to deal with zhao xu, so she imdiately changed her target. she kept laughing as she talked to zheng xinyun and ellington.
Even Ellington, who bore a blood feud, felt the frost on his face lighten a lot after seeing Madam Betty’s sympathetic tears.
” i heard that frostdew town is haunted? ”
After Madam Betty told him a secret that she had heard and her two friends started laughing out loud, Zhao Xu suddenly asked this question.
It was reasonable to say that this Madam Betty was from there, so she would probably know so inside information.
however, when madam betty, who had been happy to answer, heard this question, her face imdiately stiffened.
even though she imdiately controlled her facial expression to return to normal and hurriedly diverted the topic to distract the few people’s thoughts.
Zhao Xu also instantly realized how serious the situation was.
He had originally thought that it would not be as smooth as he had imagined if he brought Zheng xinyun and Ellington to et that old hag.
Because of this incident, Madam Betty’s instinctive reaction was not to reveal it to him after seeing his strength. Instead, she chose to hide it with all her might.
which town’s shadow was too terrifying?
or could this inside story not be revealed to the priests?
Zhao Xu didn’t think that the towns and cities around Mistra would be hiding any shocking secrets or that there would be any powerful monsters that would abuse humans.
however, this feeling of discomfort still made him feel a little strange.
zhao xu reached into the side pocket of his backpack and took out a small glass bottle.
he had been training his ” hand skills ” during this period of ti, so he directly hid the bottle in the palm of his hand, leaving no trace.
it was because there was a snake’s tongue hidden in the bottle. olive oil was also dripped on it, a special spell-casting material.
Madam Betty, I’m also very impressed by your experience of being able to pass through the blockade line despite being a widow. zhao xu suddenly complinted her, and his words made mrs. betty blush and lower her head.
zhao xu even started clapping.
with his hand skills, no one even noticed the glass bottle between his little finger and ring finger.
in fact, in the instant that they clapped, zhao xu started to mumble to himself.
he directly used the technique of ‘concealed casting’.
he concealed the process of casting his spell in a seemingly ordinary action.
No one present could see that he was chanting a spell.
zhao xu, wang ningwei, and asvich had once passed the test in the realistic illusion and received the inheritance of this technique.
in the end, when zhao xu finished clapping, the glass bottle between his two fingers was already empty.
but zhao xu’s movents were smooth and elegant, and he was able to hide the small glass bottle that contained the ingredients.
The mont the spell was completed, Madam Betty, who had deliberately shown her ” shyness “, suddenly looked dazed.
however, she recovered very quickly.
at this mont, zhao xu’s tone had a profound aning to it as he said to the other person, ” ” you’re all alone in frostdew at the mont, so you should rely on us more after you get there. share information with us in ti and help each other. ”
madam betty’s eyes instantly lost their light, as if her eyes had lost their spirit, but she imdiately recovered.
it was as if he was controlled by soone in an instant.
“You’re right, Mr. Zhongxia.” Madam Betty suddenly beca a lot friendlier and smiled at Zhao Xu as she spoke.
[ adventurer zhongxia, you have successfully cast the level 3 spell ‘suggestion’ on madam betty. duration: 12 hours (1 hour per level) ]
