Chapter 440 Sixteen Corpses

After coming out of the secret room, I went to the adventurer base with Master Hall and went through the procedures for freezing the guild. Master Hall told me: If you want to resume the guild, you can tell him at any time.

Before leaving the gate, Master Hall stopped me again and asked me again with a serious expression: "Do you really don't need help? I can provide you with detailed information about all the adventurer guilds, and I can also help you arrange meetings with them. Meet alone.”

"I appreciate your kindness." I waved my hand and said, "But I really don't need to be like this. Of course, this is not a troublesome matter, but I don't know their inner intentions yet. If it goes against us, It could get a lot worse by then, don’t you think?”

Master Hall nodded: "Well, if you have any difficulties, you can come to me at any time."

"Yeah" I gave him a thumbs up, then turned around and left.

It was now noon, so I went to a small restaurant to eat. While waiting, I recalled my trip this morning. Overall, it went very smoothly, but I didn't know if Shan Yong could handle it.

After a while, the food was served, and the fragrant smell made my index fingers move, so I couldn't wait to devour it.

While I was eating, I heard a few people at the next table chatting. As I listened, I couldn't help but start to pay attention to the conversation between them.

"Hey, did you hear that there was a murder in the Adventurer's Guild not far from my home?"

"Huh? Is it true? Did you see it with your own eyes?"

"Isn't that what I saw with my own eyes! I counted them on the side, and a total of sixteen corpses were brought out before and after!"

"Have you seen clearly how they died?"

"I didn't see it clearly. There are people from the city defense team guarding the area. If you get close, they will be blown away. Anyway, I feel that it is quite miserable."

"Fuck, stop bragging. When did you feel you were accurate?"

"It's definitely accurate this time. It's so far away that I can smell blood!"

"It's true, what you smell is not your mother-in-law's menstrual period! Hahahaha!"

"Believe it or not, I flipped the table! Let me tell you, I really know how to flip the table!"

As a result, the boss at the table next to him asked him to leave because his verbal threats were too severe.

The restaurant instantly became much quieter, and naturally, their gossip could no longer be heard.

I didn't care about my wife, menstruation, or the smell of blood. What caught my attention was what the man said about the sixteen corpses that were moved out in the morning.

In other words, this guild is very likely to be on the second young master’s cleanup list.

Only sixteen corpses were brought out in total. It is very likely that this guild only has sixteen members in total.

According to specifications, a guild with only sixteen members is a small guild.

Zefeng Continent is a continent where the strong are respected. In most cases, the strength of small guilds is the weakest. The weak are not taken seriously in this continent. This situation is especially obvious in Airui City and York Han City.

Eliminating a small guild will not attract the attention of the adventurer base. It will hardly even become nonsense news among the neighbors. At most, it will be brought to the dinner table and used for entertainment.

This is probably the result of Shan Yong's decision. He may want to start with a small guild to gain the trust of the second young master and minimize the harm to the residents of Airui City.

I have no way of saying whether his approach is right or wrong, even if it is to protect a large number of people at the expense of a small part of them.

It stands to reason that life is precious, whether it belongs to the enemy or oneself.

I don’t know if the sixteen dead adventurers have any family members. If they do, then at this moment, they must be crying and heartbroken holding the bodies of their loved ones.

Maybe there will be children waiting to be fed and women in pain, as well as their sad and desperate parents.

hehe

These are all given by the Second Young Master, driven by ambition, which turned sixteen lives into nothingness overnight.

It's so cruel and inhumane.

Just when I thought of this, I stopped moving, and even my thoughts froze at this moment.

Who am I to comment on Carter Scott's character?

Could it be that the number of adventurers who died in my hands must be less than that of him?

In an instant, countless bloody memories and crazy moments appeared in my mind, changing and playing like a revolving lantern.

The moments of this scene are all so familiar to me, yet strange at the same time.

Holding the blood-stained iron piece in his hand, he kept breathing heavily, but his eyes were still burning, and there was still countless hot blood in his heart, but in front of him, there was no longer a living person - except for the corpses on the ground. , is the blood that keeps flowing.

Although these people all had the same idea before they fell - to kill me and take possession of the coins and materials I produced.

But in the end, I was the only one standing alone, contemptuous of everything around me without any thought.

I don't know if anyone cried for them, or if anyone became desperate because of it. I only know one thing - survive.

If I look at Carter Scott's behavior in this way, I can completely understand him.

All he did was, after all, in order to continue to live.

Once they lose their asylum, once they are driven out of power, most people in power will not choose to let the tiger go back to the mountains. They will either kill him in private or behead him on the spot.

Only by standing on the top of everyone's heads and standing at the highest peak can he be qualified to continue living.

For this reason, he chose the path of coup d'état.

However, this is not only a road of no return, but also may be another abyss.

He had forgotten, or rather he had not forgotten, but simply did not want to aspire to be the lord of a city with great strength like his ancestors did.

Or maybe it's not that he doesn't want to be like his ancestors, but that he simply can't do it, so he chooses another desperate path.

However, what qualifications does a man who lacks even this little confidence and courage have to stay in the position of city lord for a long time?

His father is a living example. His own weakness has led to so many powerful officials with evil intentions hiding in this huge city of Airei.

Nowadays, the only one who is somewhat enlightened is his youngest son, Rodney.

But, to what extent has Rodney's strength reached?

He seemed to be a playful boy, accompanying his sister and cousins ​​every day, fighting the stone shell monster on the twelfth floor.

It's been so long, he should be at least level six, but why doesn't he leave there?

Could it be that he is waiting for his younger brothers and sisters to join him?

Or is he just taking advantage of his status as a prince? Do you want to wait for death for the rest of your life?

If this is really the case, then Airui City is not far away from changing the sky.
