Chereads / Noble Emblem / Chapter 42 - Gold mine

Chapter 42 - Gold mine

The next day, Liang Lidong didn't go anywhere but stayed in the hotel until someone knocked on his door in the afternoon.

The visitor was a lady, a very beautiful lady. Even though the weather was cold, she was wearing rather revealing and tacky clothes. Her fair thighs were like two jade shoots, and the two lumps of white flesh in front of her were faintly discernible. In terms of size, they were only slightly smaller than Barbara. Most importantly, her face was very beautiful, and her eyes were narrow and long, with long eyelashes. She looked very charming. If it were an ordinary person, they would definitely think of her as a prostitute. But Liang Lidong had the system with him, and the other party's character information was reflected in his retina:

Name:??? (Level 7)

Gender: Female

Profession:???

Age:???

Although almost all of the other party's information was unknown, the information (Level 7) clearly told Liang Lidong that the woman in front of him was a professional, and a very powerful one at that. Level 7, as long as one's overall attributes weren't too bad, this level was already considered a talent with mid-level strength among humans.

The woman closed the door and said in a coquettish voice, "Dear Sir, do you need any service?"

Liang Lidong pointed to the chair next to him and said, "Sit down. The assassin guild sent you here to deliver a message, not to kill people. Is there a need to disguise yourself like this?"

The woman was stunned for a moment, and then the charming look on her face disappeared and became very serious. The revealing clothes became a foil at this moment. She sat down as instructed, and her two long "jade shoots" were placed together. Then, she took out a thin piece of paper from her "trench," put it on the table, and said, "I thought my disguise was already very good, but I didn't expect it to be of any use in front of you, Sir!"

"This is all the materials we can collect. I can guarantee that it's definitely worth the money. Since we've shown our sincerity, shouldn't you also show your commission, Sir? "

Liang Lidong took out seven scrolls from his Backpack, put them on the table, and said, "Check them yourself."

The woman stood up and carefully examined each scroll. She did not need to be so careful because the magic scroll would only activate when the caster used it. From this small movement, Liang Lidong speculated that this woman should know how to cast spells, or be a hybrid class like him, such as a Magic Swordsman or a Magic Archer.

"They're all authentic!" The woman nodded and sat down again.

"Is there anything else?" Liang Lidong raised his eyebrows. "Logically speaking, our deal has already been completed."

"If you're going to put on an act, you have to go all the way!" The woman said calmly, "If you don't mind, can you let me call a few times here?"

"Go ahead!" Liang Lidong reached out and made a casual gesture.

The woman took a deep breath, and then a soft moan that made men's blood boil rang out from her mouth. The sound was slow at first, but it gradually became faster and more intense. The woman's voice was captivating, but her body did not move at all. Her face was expressionless, and the surrounding air seemed to become colder.

She looked at Liang Lidong coldly.

Liang Lidong also looked at her quietly.

The woman's voice grew louder and louder, and it could be heard outside the door. After a few more minutes, she ended her "performance" with a long, high-pitched female voice.

The woman picked up the scroll and put it in the hem of her dress. After she left, she turned to Liang Lidong and said, "Sir, you are the calmest person I've ever met, so calm that I don't think you're a man. Are all male spellcasters like this? You've never been interested in women? "

"No, I'm interested in women, but I'm not interested in you. Because I already have a wife, and they're much prettier than you. "

Hmph! The woman turned away in dissatisfaction. Even if she was a professional, as long as she was still a woman, she did not like other men to ignore her charm.

After the woman left, Liang Lidong picked up the note on the table and whistled after reading it. No wonder the woman said that the goods were worth it. Although the note wasn't big, it was full of useful information. Not to mention the age and social connections of the thin mercenary, even his personality and weaknesses were mentioned.

After reading it, Liang Lidong tore the note into pieces and threw them into the wastebasket. He stood up and said to the bed, "Joan Of Arc, you continue to rest. I'll go out and lure the enemy out. I'll let you know when the time is right."

Joan Of Arc rolled on the bed and said lazily, "Okay, I'll wait for your news."

As soon as Liang Lidong walked out of the hotel, he felt that he was being watched. No wonder the woman from the assassin's guild wanted to put on a show for others. She didn't want to expose herself or her employer's contact with the assassin's guild. With such professionalism, it was no wonder that the assassin's guild could survive in the cracks for thousands of years.

Walking on the street, he found a Lv.3 professional following him by turning around intentionally or unintentionally. He pretended not to notice and walked around with this little tail. He bought a lot of local goods nearby, and when he returned to the main hall of the hotel, he shouted to the owner, "I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon. Calculate all my consumption in the past few days, and come to my room at noon tomorrow."

When Liang Lidong shouted this, he felt that the stalker behind him disappeared.

He smiled slightly in his heart. The other party had begun to follow his plan, and the next step was to perfect the details. He returned to his room while the waiter greeted him. Joan Of Arc was already awake. Although she was still a little sleepy, it was obvious that she was much more energetic than before.

"After eating something, I need your help with something!" Liang Lidong carried Joan Of Arc to the table. "I'll explain it to you later."

About half an hour later, Joan Of Arc flew out of the window with two scrolls. After a while, she came back and flew out again with two scrolls. After repeating this several times, she finally got to rest in bed late at night.

The next morning, Liang Lidong first let Joan Of Arc leave the hotel and hover in the air. Then, he used Vision Sharing and looked down from above. Soon, he found several suspicious people wandering around the hotel.

"The assassin's guild's information sheet said that there were eight of them, but I've only seen six. Where could the other two be?"

"No, that's not important. As long as I leave the city, they'll definitely follow me."

Liang Lidong mumbled to himself in the hotel room. Then, he started to check his equipment. He rearranged the scrolls in his dimensional backpack to prevent any mistakes. He also took out the fake Emperor Fallen Sword from the assassin's guild and had the waiter take it out to sharpen it. Then, he started to eat and drink. He ate very slowly, chewing everything into a paste before swallowing it.

However, he did not eat much, because eating too much would slow down his brain's reaction.

This would be his most dangerous battle so far. If his plan worked, he would be able to kill all his enemies. If he failed, the chances of him dying were very high. This was not a game. If he died, he would die. There would be no chance of revival.

Time slowly passed, and it was already afternoon. Liang Lidong got up and went downstairs to pay for the accommodation for the next few days. Then, he walked leisurely in the direction of the city gate. Although it had been a few days since spring arrived, some places where the sun did not shine could still see the remnants of winter snow.

The air was still cold, but people could already feel the warmth of spring.

Liang Lidong walked out of the city and walked on the muddy road from the melting snow. He walked leisurely, as if he did not notice that there was a group of silent mercenaries and a spellcaster in a green robe 300 meters behind him.

But in fact, Liang Lidong knew very well that not only did he know that there was a group of people behind him, but he also knew the number of people. This was because Joan Of Arc had been circling in the sky. She was a scout, and through the spiritual channel, she would feed back everything she saw to Liang Lidong's consciousness.

Including Ackerman, there are nine people in total. The information provided by the Assassin's Guild was indeed correct.

He smiled and continued to move forward, passing through many bends. Time passed bit by bit, and soon, the sky became dark. At this time, Liang Lidong's figure became like a ghost. He looked left and right, as if confirming that there was no one around, and then turned around to hide in a mountain path. Then, he followed the mountain path up, and soon, the trees and grass on the mountain covered his figure.

At the corner of the road, the nine people looked at the place where Liang Lidong disappeared. They hesitated for a while, and the leader, the thin man, said, "He looks suspicious, and he's hiding in the forest. If we give chase, we might fall into his trap."

"Don't be so cowardly. There are nine of us, and he's only one." Ackerman patted the thin man and said, "Follow him. If worse comes to worst, I'll give you an extra finger's worth of gold coins. How about that?"

Hearing that the commission had been increased, the other eight mercenaries looked at each other. Finally, the thin man made the decision. "Follow him!"

As a mercenary group, they naturally had an expert tracker. It was a middle-aged man with a red nose. He pushed aside the weeds in front of him and said, "The prey is heading up the mountain while covering his tracks. Although he did a good job, he still left some traces. I think he has a purpose, but he doesn't want others to know!"

"Follow him, hurry up!" Ackerman was excited. He loved ruining the enemy's plans.

The nine of them followed him for about two hours. By then, the sky was completely dark, and they had reached a towering cliff.

"Huh, where did he go?" Ackerman didn't see anyone nearby.

"Here!" The expert tracker pushed aside a patch of grass, revealing a large, dark hole.

The nine of them walked in, and Ackerman activated an illumination spell. The cave was very deep. They walked for about ten minutes but still did not reach the end. Just when they were wondering if their prey had really entered the cave, a clear echo came from the depths.

"Hahaha, it really is a gold mine. The treasure map didn't lie to me. I'm rich! Wahahahaha! "

Excited laughter came from the depths of the cave, and the mercenaries were stunned. After a short moment of hesitation, they jogged forward, and ran faster and faster. Finally, they saw a bright light in front of them. They rushed over, and stopped very quickly.

The prey held the torch and stood in the middle of the cave. Around him, whether it was the ceiling, the cave walls, or even the ground, they were all reflecting bits of golden light as the flames swayed. When these bits of golden light gathered, it was as if all the stars in the sky had gathered here.

Gold mine!

The nine of them gaped at the same time.
