Chapter 69

Locke obviously didn't expect to meet Donne here. After waving to his companions, Locke sat down next to Donne.

So Elia pouted and didn't like the guy who disturbed her to have dinner with her big brother.

"You heard the news, too. I didn't expect that the LORD would kidnap those little girls."

Locke sighed and saw Donne nod. He said, "but it's a good thing. I wondered why you paid attention to it before. I didn't expect you to have such a beautiful and lovely little sister."

Hearing that Locke said she was beautiful and lovely, Elia reluctantly showed a smiling face and reduced some hostility.

"Now Lord... No, Baron duvier is dead. The mercenary guild will soon spread to the imperial capital. It is estimated that another Lord will change here soon. I hope it won't be another scum at that time."

Locke sighed: "probably when we come back from our mission, the new Lord will take office."

"Task?"

"Well, we have nothing to do with the kidnapping. It's just a pity that we offered a reward of 2000 gold coins."

Locke was very sorry, but he was excited in the twinkling of an eye: "but there's nothing. There's another task. The reward offered by the necromancer is much more than this money. There are five thousand gold coins. With this money, my team members can replace some new equipment."

Locke is bound to win the task.

Donne nodded slightly: "but the necromancer is not so easy to deal with. You'd better be careful."

"Don't worry, what's the fear of a necromancer who only dare to hide in a remote place like Ellington to steal a corpse..."

"What are you talking about?"

Donne's eyes widened. "Ellington?"

"Well, yes."

Locke didn't know why Donne was so excited: "the reward news said that the haunt of the necromancer was south of Ellington..."

South of Ellington?

Donne frowned and remembered that it was... The forest of ladia? Further south is the shining lake. There are no residents there. Will there be a necromancer there?

"Are you sure?"

"Well, at least that's what the message says... What's the matter?"

"In the south of Ellington is the ladia forest, and then to the south is the shining Lake in the forest. There are no residents. How can there be a necromancer?"

"How did you know?"

Locke looked at Donne with great surprise.

Elia said naturally, "because the big brother is the Lord of Ellington!"

"What!?"

Surprised, Locke stood up directly: "are you... The Lord of Ellington?"

Donne nodded. "Sit down and talk."

Locke only listens to orders, but when he sits down, he is obviously very cramped.

Although Locke was in charge of a small mercenary regiment and had a good reputation in castle caspami, he was just a civilian.

And what's Donne? feudal lord!

To be frank, the feudal nobles of the Empire!

It's very different from his identity!

Locke was a little embarrassed to think that he had just spoken so casually to Donne.

"Are you sure you've got the reward right?"

"No, Lord, I've been sure again and again."

"That's strange..."

Donne frowned. The necromancer often dealt with corpses and couldn't go to such a remote place. When he was in Ellington, although he didn't take the initiative to search, he didn't feel the fluctuation of the smell of death. At least it showed that there was no trace of the necromancer within a hundred miles of Ellington.

In Ellington territory, except for a few villages around Ellington Town, there are no people living further away. It is impossible to have a necromancer

Maybe it's the mercenary guild's big Oolong again.

Tang en kept his mouth shut. At the beginning, many players scolded the mercenary guild in the game. When the mercenary guild released a task, it always gave only an approximate range. Sometimes it was 18000 miles away from the goal of the task. In the game, it was estimated that prandal was almost ten miles away.

Donne was a little relieved to think of this.

"Locke, right? When are you going to leave?"

"I'll start tomorrow, because it will take a few days on the road and my sworn enemy has taken over the task, so I want to solve the task before them."

"Tomorrow, maybe we can go together."

"What do you mean?"

"We're going back to Ellington tomorrow. You should pass Ellington there?"

"No, we're not going to enter Ellington..."

"No, no, you have to face the dangerous necromancer after a long journey. You must need supplies very much?"

"Well, we brought enough supplies..."

Donne stared into Locke's eyes. "You, will, enter Ellington, right?"

"Yes, yes! We will go in! We will go in! We will not only rest there, but also replenish supplies there!"

Locke trembled all over and subconsciously covered his pocket. He always felt that his wallet seemed to be stared at by an evil thought.

"Well, yes, I welcome you in advance as Lord Ellington."

Donne raised his glass happily and touched him. He silently added: "... Welcome the gold coins in your pocket."

In fact, it's not that Donne really stares at Locke's poor savings, but... The changes in Ellington need to be spread.

The mercenary regiment, which travels far and wide, is undoubtedly a good role.

When they see the changes in Ellington and take the news to other places, many people will be willing to look for business opportunities, and slowly Ellington will become very lively.

The lack of vitality in Ellington is due to the absence of foreign population. Once the foreign population brings vitality, Ellington's local economy will gradually wake up.

These are all things that his lord needs to consider, so he insisted that Locke take the mercenary regiment to Ellington.

After drinking the wine, Locke hurried back to his companion.

A bald man came up and said, "Captain, who is that man? Look at how happy you are talking to him?"

Locke trembled: "Shh, keep your voice down. That's a lord!"

The bald man was stunned: "Lord! Is that right? Duvier just died today. The emperor can't appoint a new Lord so soon!"

"He is the Lord of Ellington!"

"I see... Ellington, isn't that where we're going to pass?"

"Well... The plan has changed. We'll rest in Ellington for half a day and replenish supplies."

"Ah?"

The bald man was silly: "Captain, those bastards of the flame sword won't wait for us. In case of delay, the gold coins will fall into their hands!"

"What do you know!"

Locke said with awe inspiring righteousness: "I can get to know the Lord of Ellington. This is our chance! If we can have a good relationship with the Lord, our headquarters after cross rose can be set up in Ellington! If we can go further and get the business license or other commitments from him, maybe we can get rid of the current life and live the noble life we dream of It's over! "

When Locke said this, the bald man and several others couldn't help nodding in deep thought.

"Sure enough, it's the boss. What you think is comprehensive!"

"Of course! Otherwise, how could I be the leader!"

Locke laughed and breathed a sigh of relief.

After dinner, Donne sent Elia back to her room to have a rest, while he quietly left caspamiburg and quickly developed his mental power. Under his deliberate control, the spirit just detected the pepper that made his mouth water.

"Ford said that there are plants growing near caspamiburg. It should not be difficult to find them... Yes!"

The next moment, Donne's body disappeared and appeared in a small forest outside castle caspami.

Twilight!

After releasing the low light technique, Donne saw the string of gratifying little things in front of him. He endured his excitement, took off one, tore it off and put it into his mouth.

A pungent smell instantly diffused in the mouth.

Hot!

It's hot!

Very hot!

Hot Donne's tears came out, but he had a happy smile on his face. With a wave of his big hand, all the pepper roots and leaves disappeared and were stuffed into the package by him. It was like a locust crossing and no grass!

Donne now sincerely hopes that the pepper can be planted smoothly in Ellington. In that case, he can consider making some dishes to improve his food

Not to mention anything else, it's just a scrambled egg with pepper. Now he's drooling when he thinks about it.

If you can find hemp pepper again, get some butter to boil a pot of bottom material, get some thin and transparent meat slices, pinch some balls, and then get some pure natural green pollution-free wild vegetables to rinse in the pot

That taste, hiss

Donne sucked his saliva and hurriedly stopped his fantasy. If he thought about it again, he might have to look all over the world for spicy food

After collecting the pepper, Donne returned to the hotel again and slept with soft Elia.

When he woke up, Donne found Ford and told him he was ready to go back to Ellington.

Although Ford felt that it was a little strange for Donne to come back after only one night here, he didn't say anything. After all, the Lords of caspamiburg are dead, so even if you want to talk about things, you can't talk about it

Then Ford suddenly shivered.

Baron duvier was fine when the Lord didn't come.

Baron duvier died as soon as the LORD came.

Do you mean

Ford dared not think any more. He hurried to prepare forage and dry food, and they set off.

Donne, they had just left caspamiburg. Not long ago, they caught up with the cross rose mercenary regiment, mercenary regiment

Most of the members are on foot. The carriages are pulling materials and supplies and so on. The action should be a little slower.

"It seems that we can really go together."

Donne wore a bright smile.

"Well..."

Locke is full of bitterness. You're worried that we won't go to Ellington, so you plan to follow up and supervise the whole process?
