Chapter 47: Kindness and Intelligence(1/2)

Sellers, despite the digging of mud and black blood, held up his father's head and couldn't help but shed tears.

When his father Wendel was alive, Sellers didn't like him much.

My father, Wendel, was not very famous in the village. When he ran a store, it was purely normal to buy low and sell high. Sometimes he would bully the villagers and buy some herbs that were considered cheap. If he had not bowed his head and opened up the way for the doctor Mr. Laketon, he would have been unable to settle down in the business of purchasing herbs. Mr. Laketon was the only doctor in Leicester town.

But even such a father is his biological father.

He pulled himself up and saved up one copper coin and paid himself a high tuition fee, making himself a registered apprentice to Dr. Laketon - for this, his father not only used up all his savings, but also owed a sum of money.

Unfortunately, I had no talent. After studying with Teacher Laketon for several years, I still stopped as a doctor's apprentice. I did not become a real doctor. In the end, I could only leave sadly and return to Wall Village.

But even so, with the knowledge of a doctor's apprenticeship, the Wendel Guta family finally gained a foothold in Wall Village. In the next few years, relying on the monopoly acquisition of herbs, they not only paid off their debts, but also became a wealthy man in the village.

Everything about the Guta family is now laid by their father.

As he thought about it, Sellers couldn't help but cry. He wanted to wipe off his father's eyelids so that his father could close his eyes, but perhaps because he suffered too much torture, Wendel's eyes could not be closed.

Sellers stroked it several times, and each time Wendell closed his eyes, he would open it again.

In this world, dying with your eyes open is a very bad thing.

According to legend, people who die with deep hatred cannot ascend to the Kingdom of God, sooner or later they will become resentful spirits and will never rest in peace until their souls are crushed.

Sellers kneeled on the ground in pain, holding his father's head, and made Wendel look at the corpse of the thief in the pit and pray loudly:

"Father, father, have you seen it? The thieves who killed you are dead, they have all been killed by Lord Ender. If you have revenge, just close your eyes!"

However, Wendel's eyes still did not close.

"Sellers, let me try it." When Sellers felt desperate, a hand fell on his shoulder, and Ander took Wendell's head from Sellers.

"An, Lord Ande!"

If it were someone else, Cyrus would not let go, but Ender was the one who avenged his father.

He suspected Ende before, but the pile of corpses in front of him proved that Ende did not lie. He really killed more than thirty thieves and avenged his father.

Ander raised Wendell's head with both hands and placed it in front of him, looking straight at him with his eyes dying with his eyes open, as if he was talking to a normal person: "Mr. Wendell, I have avenged you, you can close your eyes."

A miracle happened in front of everyone - as Ender said, Wendel's eyes slowly closed.

Moreover, from under Wendel's closed eyelids, black blood and tears slowly overflowed, flowing across his cheeks, rushing out two traces of dust on his face, like tears of relief.

Of course, Ander did not have the ability to communicate with the dead, so that Wendel's eyes could be closed with peace of mind. If he really communicated with Wendel's soul, he would probably not be able to close his eyes, but he might speed up the progress of becoming a resentful spirit. However, although he was not able to communicate with the spirit, he still controlled Wendel's head, the levator muscles and orbicularis muscles responsible for opening and closing the eyelids, causing the stiff muscles to deform. It was not difficult for Ander to close his eyes.

The only problem is that the muscle elasticity of dead people and living people is too big. This is the first time that Ender does this. When he twists the levator muscle and the orbicularis muscle, he accidentally shatters Wendel's eyeball - but this is not a big problem. Anyway, they are all dead people, so I guess Wendel doesn't care about this.

Ander held Wendell's head in both hands and gave it to Sellers, which gave Sellers a look of gratitude.

Not only Cyrus, but also the village chief of Tass, Captain Bamboton and soldier Will looked at Ender with a very complicated look—unbelievable, surprised, respectful, and even a little jealousy.

Killing more than thirty robbers alone, this young guard hunter is so powerful that it is unimaginable.

In cold weapon battles, the advantage of the number is very, very important.

It's not a joke that you can't beat four hands with two fists. You have been practicing hard for ten years and have high sword skills. You can fire three swords in one second; the opponent's three are mediocre martial arts, and you can only stab one sword in one second.

When the two sides fight, if you are surrounded by three people, the opponent can launch three swords at the same moment. Even if you have seven or eight times faster than them, you cannot block the assassination in three directions at the same time.

A third-level warrior may only require three moves and two moves to deal with a first-level warrior, which looks easier than beating his son;

But let him deal with three first-level warriors who work together and are fearless, and face him head-on with 80% going to fail.

This is also the reason why even if a circle of enemies surrounds the protagonist, they still take turns to fight with the protagonist.

This is not the heroism of the villain, but the villains really rushed up from all directions at the same time. No matter how clever the fighting movements were designed, the protagonist would have to flee on the spot - supernatural power didn't count.

Therefore, only knights wearing full armor can rely on invulnerable defense to fight siege and kill at the same time. This is also the key to the knights being able to fight against more and more charge into battle with one.

Banbodon was a regular soldier trained. He could not think of how Ender killed more than 30 thieves in the siege.

But no matter what, the body is in front of you, which is an undeniable fact.

Ander took the initiative to help Sellers, who had spoken ill-mouthed, and let his father Wendel rest in peace. Bamboton could not question such an Ender - and the relationship between Chief Corey, even if he didn't help, he could not destroy the situation.

In the eyes of everyone, Ender's behavior was more than enough to be a paladin of the kind god Amra.

————————————

A few days ago.

Telligan reported to the Baron that the "Night Demon" appeared, killed the former president of the Shadow Guild, and became the new president of the Shadow Guild, Baron Leicester summoned Khruv alone the next day.

At that time, Baron Leicester did not talk about anything about the Shadow Guild, but just like a hospitable host, welcomed Khruv to his own territory to live.

When Khruv proposed to establish a chamber of commerce, Baron Leicester happily issued a license to allow Khruv to establish a chamber of commerce in Leicester town - this is also the reason why the Fred Chamber of commerce was successfully established in just a few days.

The Baron Leicester used a common method of dealing with things - some things are not convenient for the nobles to come forward directly, so they summoned relevant personnel and expressed their attitude, and then sent a private representative (white gloves) to deal with these troubles.

Today, Khruv received a message from Tligan, a lord counselor made an appointment with him at the Bluetail Hotel to discuss something.

————————————

Leicester Town, Bluetail Hotel.

The melodious sound of harp flows in the hall with the fragrance of flowers; the afternoon sun passes through the colorful spliced ​​glass windows and shines on the golden oak floor of the hall, making the hall feel like it is paved with gold.

The sound of the piano, the fragrance of flowers, and the sparse guests create a lazy and comfortable atmosphere for the leisure hall of this Bluetail Hotel.

Bluetail Hotel is the most noble hotel in the entire Leicester area.

In the leisure hall of Bluetail Hotel, at least people who can come in must be quite famous squires. People without status cannot enter even if they have money.

"Mr. Khruv, please come here." A waiter came up and led Mr. Khruv, who had just walked into the gate, to his seat.

In one corner of the hall, there is an independent booth made of three sofas, surrounded by triangles. Two people are already waiting there, one of which is Telligan, and the other is a thin old man with white hair.

"Mr. Khruf, you're late." Tligan stood up, reached out and pointed his hand to signal Khruf to sit down.

"No, Mr. Tligan, you're here too early." Khruv took out a pocket watch, opened it and said, and then he turned his head and asked, "May I ask, this old gentleman is—"

"This is Mr. Kruel, Special Advisor to Baron Leicester, and Mr. Kruel, Vice President of the Fred Chamber of Commerce."

Trigan introduced to both sides. He was not the protagonist today. As long as he was able to introduce Kruel to Khruv, his mission would be completed.

The old man Kruel Wien, even the Baron, wanted to call him "Uncle". He was the Baron's special counsel, but Telligan didn't know the problem of the old man's consultant.

However, today the old man actually came to see the people from the Shadow Guild with him, which made Tilligan have some speculation about his identity.

Of course, even if there are some speculations, Trigan will only pretend not to know.

As for Telligan calling Khruv the president of the Fred Chamber of Commerce, there is also a reason.

As a semi-public organization with influence throughout the continent, the Shadow Guild cannot operate all underground, and they also need some industries to launder money and resettle people.

Moreover, it is impossible for people from the Shadow Guild to introduce themselves: I am so-and-so from the Shadow Guild.

Usually they will use the identity of a legal businessman to introduce themselves - even the underworld in later generations knows how to cleanse them - the shadow guild in this world is a giant with black and white, and with gods as their backers, it is not difficult to get a legal identity.

What's more, owning a chamber of commerce is related to Khruv's various follow-up plans. Therefore, the Fred Chamber of commerce is not just a short chamber of commerce with a name, but a legal chamber of commerce that has a large amount of funds and fixed assets injected and officially registered in the town office.

"Hello, Mr. Khruv." Kruel nodded slightly, and his clean and neat white hair fluttered slightly.

"Hello, Mr. Kruel." Khluf took off his hat and put it aside, bowing slightly to show his respect for the elders.

He asked the servant to bring three cups of black tea. The three of them drank the tea. After a while of greeting, Khruv asked, "Mr. Kruel, what are your instructions for asking me to come?"

At this time, you can't mention the Baron. Baron Leicester will send an agent if it is inconvenient to come forward. What's the matter with you talking about Baron one by one?

Amid the melodious harp, Khruv's voice would not be heard far away. There were no other covers around them, and no one would eavesdrop on them.

Kruel was very satisfied with Khruv's tactfulness: "Mr. Khruv, your association is well-informed, I hope to buy some information from you."

"Mr. Kruel, you are so kind. Please give me the instructions."

"I hope to know the specific movements of Baron Werth and Baron Rocove, the more detailed the better."

Kruel picked up the black tea and took a sip, and then said, "Also, in the past three days, four villages in Leicester have been attacked. I hope to know the attackers."

"Finally, I hope to talk to the gentleman who took action five days ago. Please make sure to arrange it."

Kruel Wien put down his teacup and looked at Khruf opposite him.

Although he was old, his waist was still straight and his eyes were as sharp as an eagle under his white hair.

Khruv pondered for a while and replied sincerely: "Sorry, Mr. Kruer, because the business here has not yet been launched, the information we can provide may not satisfy you-but I promise to do my best."

"There were the Brutal Bear Group and the Blood Knife Brotherhood among the people attacking Leicester, and there was no news for others.

There was a news from the Wilter leader - it is said that Lord Wilt is supported by some people and may declare war on the Leicester leader; although the Locovey tribe also showed signs of mobilizing soldiers, the purpose was not yet determined."

"As for you, I hope to talk to our President, I cannot make the decision. The President has his own ideas, so I can only bring your words to the Adults, and the Adults decide whether to meet with you."

Khruv could not agree to this request directly.

Even if he hasn't studied psychology for a day, he has a good grasp of people's hearts. Ende is in a rebellious psychological period at this age, and he is still full of caution about the shadow guild.

Last time, Khruv kept his own adventure, and only used money and fame to support this dangerous person with barely stabilized.

If you dare to make a decision for the other party casually, it means that it is nonsense to regard Ande as president - no subordinate decides what to do for the president and what not to do? Who is the boss?

If Ender felt deceived, according to Khruv's brief understanding of Ender, this young man might turn against him.

Of course, Khruv and Ende have been dealing with each other for a short time, and they are not sure about Ende's personality, but he can't afford to take this risk - Ende turns his back and kills people!
To be continued...
