Mystery: The New Dark Emperor Arrives

Chapter 310 Advice to Rafter

The offer Thomas gave was generous, 1400 pounds!
He said to Hobert: "If you get any Extraordinary characteristics or sealed items in the future expeditions, you can come to me to cash them in, and I will usually give you the base price.

"The money is all legal, and you don't have to pay taxes, and you don't have to worry about cheating.

"Especially the Extraordinary characteristics of the 'Corpse Collector' and 'Warrior' pathways, and I will help you get some premium."

Hobert asked: "Do you also accept the Extraordinary characteristics of the 'Arbitrator' pathway?"

"Accept." Thomas smiled: "But according to some treaties, we will resell it to the royal family. Don't worry, we will definitely hide your information."

This is another good way to "sell stolen goods".

After seeing off Thomas and the others, Hobert returned to the office, feeling that the preparations for leaving Backlund were almost done.

Now all that is left is to find time to put on the mask to visit the "Giant Bishop", and then make a big fuss in Backlund.

However, after having the ability to "travel", it would be more exciting to come back and make a big fuss after leaving Backlund.

After work, Hobert purposely returned to his home in Queens in a hired carriage.

In the first two days, he got off work and returned to No. 192 Blanca Street, then used "travel" to return to Queens, and used "travel" to return to Blanca Street the next morning, and went out to work from there.

With less than an hour's drive back and forth, Hobert felt that he had a lot more time.

However, this method cannot be used all the time, otherwise the servants in the Queens District will find that Master Hobert seems to have lost his job, and he returns to his room after eating in the morning, and only comes out for dinner in the afternoon.

And after a long time, the neighbors on Blanca Street will also wonder why Lawyer Hobert hasn't bought groceries during this period of time?Didn't dine out either?
Originally, Hobert planned to sleep in on Sunday, but he was woken up by Dopheus early in the morning. After breakfast with Christine, he went out in the family carriage.

As for where to go, Christine said it was going to a manor in the suburbs.

After the carriage came to the suburbs, the air gradually became fresher, and Hobert began to appreciate the scenery of the suburbs.

Christine, who was sitting opposite Hobert, suddenly said, "See that mountain with a big pine tree? Be natural and don't stare."

Hobert saw a not-so-small pine tree on a hill not far away, and he could feel its huge size on the road at the foot of the hill.

After confirming the target, Hobart nodded invisibly.

Christine said again: "If we get separated, we will meet under the big pine tree."

Hobart nodded slightly without changing his expression.

"After leaving Backlund, don't trust anyone except Dopheus and me!" After Christine finished admonishing this sentence, she changed to another topic.

Hobert didn't seem to have heard what he said just now, and chatted with Christine about other topics.

Going to the manor in the suburbs was just a pretense. The group stayed in the manor until the afternoon, and then returned to Backlund with a few barrels of aged wine and wild game hunted by the servants in the manor.

Back in his room, Hobert was still wondering what Christine and Dolphus were going to do?
I have to say that the two of them did a great job of keeping the secrets secret, and until now Hobert didn't even have any clue.

The more he couldn't guess, the more excited Hobert became, and the more he felt that Christine must be planning something big!
He completely trusted Christine, and since the other party was willing to let him stay, then he was certain of their actions.

Hobert believes that when the time comes, he just needs to play by ear, and there shouldn't be too much danger.

That night, Hobert received a prayer from Rafter. He said that he had already returned to Backlund, and he did not encounter any obstacles along the way, and he did not arouse the suspicion of the royal family after returning.

So Hobert first used "True Sight" to confirm that Rafter was not under surveillance, then put on his windbreaker, put on his mask again, and used "Travel" to arrive at Rafter's address on Sivelas Street.

Rafter was kneeling on one knee, waiting for the "creator" to reply, and Hobert turned the doorknob and opened the door to come in. It was as easy as returning to his own living room.

The sudden appearance of Hobert startled Rafter.

But Rafter immediately adjusted his mood. He stood up and bowed slightly: "Thank you for your help. This is your magical item. He really made me get rid of all the pursuers."

On the way back, Rafter gave full play to his imagination, imagining the battle starting from the cemetery. He thought it must be just the beginning. If he didn't have the black crystal in his hand, he would definitely be hunted down by the enemy all the way.

Hobert took the "Crystal of Order" and was about to use "Flash" to leave the room first, Rafter hurriedly asked: "God, Mr. God's Favored..."

He thought that the masked man in front of him was handling some mundane affairs for the "creator", and he should be the legendary "God's Favored One".

Rafter smiled flatteringly: "I want to become stronger, do you have any suggestions?"

Hobert looked at Rafter coldly, and said after two or three seconds: "Leave Backlund, and leave the Loen Kingdom."

After speaking, he left with "Travel", he has been here for 1 minute, and he can use "Travel" again.

Rafter was slightly taken aback. This is indeed a solution. As long as he is in Backlund, as long as he is in Loen, he has to be careful, and he doesn't even dare to advance to Sequence Seven, because he may arouse the suspicion of the royal family.

But, but...

If he leaves Backlund, it will be difficult to fulfill the patriarch's grandfather's entrustment. In that hidden ruins, there is a huge and extraordinary wealth waiting for him to discover.

Then he hesitated, should he ask the "creator" for help?
If he asks the "creator" for help, he will only get a small part of that wealth, but if he doesn't ask the "creator" for help, that wealth may be forever buried in Backlund's underground.

……

Hobert, who returned to his bedroom, thought about the whole incident seriously, and found that he had left no trace of his contact with Rafter.

In the future, I can consider helping Rafter. For example, if he wants to go to the southern continent to develop, he can use "travel" to help him escape the surveillance of the royal family.

But it was limited to this, Hobert felt in him an ambition that was not commensurate with his ability, such a person could easily mess things up.

On Monday morning, Hobert did not go to work in the law firm, but took a taxi to the Parliament Building. Today he will attend the meeting to formulate the Labor Law.

As soon as he got off the carriage, Hobert found that Jessica and the reporters who had made an appointment had arrived.

After Hubert shook hands with them and exchanged some pleasantries, he led them in together, and led them to the designated conference room under the guidance of the waiter.

At the door of the meeting room, the waiter stopped the reporters: "Sorry gentlemen, only Lawyer Hobert can attend this meeting."

Hobert smiled and said, "What's your name?"

"Quincy, sir."

Hobert said: "Today's "Becklund Evening News", tomorrow's "Observer", "Kingdom Under the Rule of Law" and other newspapers and magazines will publish such news:
"Mr. Quincy in the parliament hall was ordered to block the reporters who were paying attention to the Labor Law. Is there any inside information about this meeting that the citizens of Loen cannot know? Is there any transaction that cannot be announced to the public?"
