Chapter 122 Old Acquaintance

Chapter 122 Old Acquaintance (1 More)
Seeing Adam Smith nodding silently, Matthew naturally wouldn't tell him.

"You were just out of danger, and now you're about to die!"

That’s right, Adam Smith had just escaped the certain death situation of having “-5” luck.

Now the Yintang is dark again and the face is moldy.

Although his luck value is not "-5", it is still a "-4" death omen!

Moreover, he was not the only one, the luck values ​​of most of the people in the convoy outside were more dangerous "catastrophe".

It seemed that the opponent who was about to take action was very strong, and his attack was even more decisive and ruthless. He was obviously not prepared to let anyone go.

However, the other party's boldness made Matthew even more curious.

Right now.

The town of Sweetwater has just been destroyed, which has aroused the alarm of the Netherese Empire.

If there is any big movement, it will most likely attract the attention of investigators.

At present, the Netheril Empire still has strong control over its territory.

It will not be until next year when the "orc craze" rages, that it will gradually lose control and gradually collapse!

"The patrol team cannot have too much hope. Since the other party dares to take action, they must be well prepared."

Matthew put down the newspaper in his hand, looked at the map again, rubbed the thick parchment, and suddenly thought:
"Paper seems not to have been invented yet..."

"A piece of parchment costs 50 copper coins. The cost of making ordinary paper can easily be 2 copper coins..."

"It's a pity that I'm not strong enough now, otherwise there would be many ways to make money..."

The world is cruel, and the struggle for interests is far more difficult than killing hundreds of trolls and ogres.

As a member of the Seer family, Matthew developed the most famous financial path of the Seer family, but he was still "coveted".

Develop those things in your mind, mass produce them and promote them.

What awaits him may be more than just "assassination".

Noticing that Matthew had put down the newspaper, Adam Smith felt his head hurt less.

Suddenly, he patted his forehead and respectfully handed over a storage belt:

"This is what the Lord asked me to give to you."

With a low hum, Matthew took the belt, his mental energy penetrated it, and he glanced briefly.

More than 10 new first-level spell scrolls.

100 second-level spell scrolls.

50 "Fireball" scrolls.

3 high-level spell scrolls.

Finally, there is a small teleportation circle.

Adam Smith did not stare at him, lowered his head and continued:
"Two sets of small teleportation arrays, worth a total of 1 gold coins."

"Each time the small teleportation circle is activated, it can teleport 50 people or 100 million pounds of goods."

"The magic crystal costs 100 gold coins and needs to be inspected and repaired every 100 times it is activated."

"The medium-sized teleportation circle Blood Moon City is not for sale for the time being. We need to contact the city lord..."

Matthew was not surprised by this. Small teleportation arrays require high-level spellcasters to create.

Medium-sized teleportation arrays require super-level spellcasters. Currently, only the city lord of Blood Moon City has such strength.

For some reasons, Matthew did not want to contact him now. He glanced at Adam Smith who had calmed down and continued to ask:
"Do you have any information on those enemies?"

Adam Smith quickly took out two scrolls and continued to report to Matthew:
"These two pieces of information are from the Lord's Mansion and the Assassin's Guild respectively." Seeing Matthew taking the scroll and looking through it carefully, Adam Smith explained in detail:
"There are three suspicious targets in total, Laird from the Redwood Chamber of Commerce, Lynch from the Blackstone Chamber of Commerce, and Larke from the Pfizer Caravan."

"The first two are my old rivals, and they have had physical contact with each other."

"I don't have much contact with Larke from the Pfizer Caravan, but he once asked me to give up selling the "blood-activating potion" in Blood Moon City, or sell it to him at a low price."

Pfizer Chamber of Commerce!

Larke!
"Another old acquaintance!"

Matthew didn't have much impression on the first and second ones.

But he knew Larke from the Pfizer Caravan very well.

Larke is one of the most powerful businessmen in Bloodmoon City.

Even in the entire Pfizer caravan, he is one of the top talkers.

Although Larke is very young, he relies on his family's inheritance and extraordinary skills to be the person in charge of the Pfizer Caravan in the Eastern Province.

Just now, he controls more than 1/10 of the trading market and resources in the eastern province!

Matthew and the players have also accepted his employment, helped him complete many tasks, and know him very well.

A cunning, profit-seeking, cold-blooded and greedy capitalist!

Yes, in this fantasy world where magic is rampant, Larke can definitely be called a capitalist!

Now, young Larke is already very strong.

In the future, he will shine even more!
He has the final say in almost the entire Eastern Province!
Matthew, who had seen Larke's methods, was not surprised that almost no one in the entire caravan was spared.

When Larke starts, he will never leave anyone alive!
There was a little bit of chill in his dark eyes, and the corners of his mouth under the cloak were slightly raised.

Matthew had an inexplicable expectation for the upcoming battle.

Without any hesitation, Matthew decisively consumed 100 destiny coins!

"Ding! Choose to leave, -4 (death omen star movement)!"

"Choose to stay, -3 (bloody disaster)!"

Both options represented danger, which made Matthew react quickly.

The choice of fate is not omnipotent, it just provides two extreme possibilities!
Once the enemy's arrangement reaches a point where it is completely irresistible, then there is still no way to avoid doomed death!
This reminded Matthew not to be superstitious about fate!
"Choose to stay!"

The situation did not change, but Adam Smith's "-4" luck value quietly changed to "-3".

This fully shows that Matthew’s choice is effective!
However, it is still not possible to guarantee the safety of everyone.

Casualties are essential!
After exhaling slightly, Matthew's eyes were very calm, and he had no intention of explaining to Adam Smith. He nodded pretendingly and said calmly:

"Even if the other party has any ideas, they will not take action near Blood Moon City."

"Moreover, if the other party has an insider in our team, they will definitely come to us."

There is an internal response!
Adam Smith's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously wanted to get out of the car to look for it, but he saw that the Arcanist was not in any hurry.

He immediately understood that the other party must have arranged something, and then he relaxed slightly.

Adam Smith certainly would not have thought that Matthew had no arrangements for this, but instead said without hesitation:

"Go down and lead a search. Pay attention to the person in carriage No. 63 in the refugee team."

"But don't arrest them, lest you alert them."

They are spies!
