Chereads / Noble Emblem / Chapter 374 - Windfall

Chapter 374 - Windfall

The organization of rats may be a great deterrent among the civilians. But in the eyes of the nobles and professionals, they were small fries, just like their name.

In essence, they were a small organization formed by a group of vagrants. They sounded mysterious and strange, but in essence, they were still the same cowardly and cowardly emotions that they did not dare to show themselves to others.

Beta didn't have any bad feelings toward the Rats, and of course, he didn't have any good feelings toward them either. Many times, the Rats would occasionally do something that wasn't very harmonious in order to survive.

However, all large organizations had done such things in the dark. Beta wasn't the kind of person who was obsessed with mental cleanliness. He wouldn't carry out a "mission" to suppress or slaughter the Rats just because of these things.

If he saw them, he would naturally deal with them. If he didn't, then forget about it.

"We did collect some information." The rat raised its head and glanced at Beta, then quickly lowered its head and continued, "But because your request is too general, we can only gather all the information and let you make a judgment."

The man in black took out a few pieces of parchment from behind and handed them to Beta.

After taking the parchment, Beta glanced at it a few times, then took out five gold coins and threw them to the man. At the same time, he said, "The information you've collected is quite interesting, but it's still not what we think. Continue, if there's any new information, let me know again. I won't be short of money."

The man in black held the five gold coins tightly in his hand and then left the room.

Beta gently waved his hand, closed the door, and then gently read the information on the parchment.

Just now when he said that there was no useful information, it was actually just a lie. There were three pieces of information in it that aroused his interest.

"A young girl disappeared eight days ago."

"A young girl was kidnapped by suspected mercenaries three days ago. Her whereabouts are unknown."

"Yesterday morning, a body was found in a slum alley, suspected to be a female. Because of the high degree of decomposition, it was impossible to tell how she died, and then she was eaten by hungry people."

Seeing this, Beta immediately understood that there was indeed a vampire lurking in the city. These three pieces of information were hidden among the many other pieces of information and did not stand out at all. After all, in Perth, people went missing and died every day. This was a very common thing.

However, since Beta was here for the vampires, he was very sensitive to any clues related to the vampires. This was because it was easy for him to connect the three most inconspicuous pieces of information among the many pieces of information.

"The slum alley …" Beta looked at Joan Of Arc, who was asleep on the bed. "Tomorrow, let it monitor that place and see if there are any surprises."

With that in mind, Beta fell asleep.

The next day, after he woke up, he continued to wander around the city.

Because of the talent 'Internal Affairs', Beta could infer the general information of a city from the flow of people, goods, types, and some specious information, such as the population, public security, the number of guards, and so on.

The longer one stayed in a city, the more detailed the information would be. Once it reached a certain level, one could even know the general movements of each family in the city.

This was the terrible thing about Internal Affairs. Although it showed the movements of a city, in many cases, some important information would often appear indirectly in the general information of the city. Because of Beta's identity and appearance, it was impossible for him to find out too much information in person.

After all, generally speaking, the biggest source of information was in lowly places like taverns. Now, Beta's identity and ability had allowed him to go beyond this level. Most importantly, he could hide his strength, but he could not hide his temperament.

Beta had never learned acting. He could control his emotions and not show his emotions, but he had a strong sense of nobility. Coupled with his aristocratic talent, there was no way to hide his identity as a person of high status.

In places like taverns, when nobles or big shots appeared, there was not much information that could be leaked.

The more "lowly" a person was, the more cautious they would be. Many people understood the principle that a loose tongue could cause trouble.

Therefore, for Beta, there was almost no way he could get information in taverns. He could also go the route of the upper class. After all, the nobles had more information.

But the problem was that Castellan Cole was now ostracizing him, making it impossible for him to integrate into the upper class of Perth City.

Since the upper and lower routes didn't work, he could only use the talent 'Internal Affairs' to gather information. Although the information collected was not much, and the effectiveness was slow, what if he could find something?

With this thought in mind, Beta wandered the streets for the whole morning. At noon, just as Beta returned to the entrance of the hotel, he ran into Aisha, who had come to visit.

Aisha had changed her clothes. Although the style was still the kind of midriff-baring clothes unique to women of the desert, the material of the clothes had been changed from ordinary cloth to the highest quality silk.

High-quality silk was very transparent, which made Aisha's health and wildness vaguely visible. Her dark and smooth skin contrasted with the pale white silk.

In the space, Shirley and Emma both snorted in unison. Alice looked at the two of them and thought it was extremely funny. Even the depression of being jilted was greatly alleviated.

Naturally, Beta also saw Aisha's hot and seductive outfit. When he was on Earth, he often watched love action movies from small island countries, and he had been friends with Blondie and Whitey for a long time. He was already an experienced player.

Although Aisha was sexy and beautiful, and Beta indeed felt that she was not bad, it was far from enough to attract Beta's attention.

Beta smiled and greeted Aisha, then invited her to his room.

Aisha looked around the room, sat down, and said with a smile, "Sir, this place is really simple. This kind of place really doesn't match your identity."

"I don't have to be so particular when I'm outside." Beta also smiled. "Madam, is there anything I can help you with?"

"Actually, it's not a big deal." Aisha looked a bit surprised. "It's just that there are some small problems in magic that I haven't been able to solve, so I came to ask."

Although the people of the desert were rich in mages of earth and fire, they were also a country of warriors. Due to the character of the people, Sunland was not good at academic research, because most of the mages of earth and fire in this country were unorthodox. Even their teachers were master and apprentices. Thus, the mages of Sunland did not have a continuous and rich inheritance of schools like other countries in terms of academic research.

"Please ask. As long as I can answer, I will definitely tell you."

Aisha looked grateful. "Thank you, Sir. I want to know if it is possible to fuse earth and fire magic. If so, what should I do?"

Hearing this, Beta was a bit surprised. It was indeed possible to fuse different types of magic, although it was very difficult. Even among the players, only a few could master it.

It would not be strange if this was said by a Spell Caster from another country. After all, other countries had Royal Magic Academies or similar institutions, and at the very least, there would be a large number of books passed down. However, Sunland did not have such a tradition of written academic records.

Spellcasters from other countries had enough books to read, so they were very knowledgeable and would naturally come up with some strange ideas. However, for a spellcaster like Sunland, who only had a few books to learn, it was indeed strange for him to directly propose the concept of fusing different types of magic.

Beta was a player, and players were very focused on communication. In terms of magic theory, he was also one of the top players. In this world, in terms of magic theory, perhaps only the Goddess of Magic was better than the players.

Thinking for a moment, Beta said, "It is indeed possible, but to achieve this, one needs unique talent or precise magic control skills."

Aisha heaved a sigh of relief. "I once received a magic skill book, and it said that some people know how to fuse magic, but my teacher told me that it was impossible, so I've always been skeptical of this idea."

"Then you believe what I said?" Beta was a bit curious.

Aisha said matter-of-factly, "A Master-level expert and a noble noble doesn't have to lie to me about this … May I know what kind of power is needed to perform magic fusion?"

"At least the Master-level." Beta thought for a moment and continued, "If it's a Warlock, it has to be the Legendary level. It's said that for professions like magic swordsmen, it has to be a Demigod."

Aisha was a pure spellcaster. Hearing this, she heaved a sigh of relief. "Master-level. There's still hope."

Her eyes suddenly glittered. "Sir, since you're a Master-level expert, can you show me your magic fusion skills?"

Beta frowned. He was really a Divine Noble. Although he was very good at magic theory, there were rules. It was impossible for a Warlock to perform magic fusion until he reached the Legendary level.

Aisha's expression was somewhat gloomy. "That's true. How can I show such a precious skill to other people?"

Beta shook his head. "That's not the reason. It's because I haven't learned it yet. After all, it's too difficult. "

Though somewhat disappointed, Aisha still seemed very happy. "Thank you for answering my question, sir."

Even if Beta only gave an answer, for a persistent professional, as long as they knew that a goal existed, they would be motivated to work toward it.

Taking a sip of the fruit wine served by the hotel staff, Aisha suddenly said, "I heard that you're investigating something very interesting. If you trust me, you can go to the north of the city and investigate the Trump family. Maybe you'll find something."

"Eh?"
