Lord Chronicle

Chapter 255
Ferry City, the hiding place of Thor and his friends.

"You mean, are you going to hand Cliff over to us?"

Chesler said in surprise.

Having successfully provoked the chaos in Ferry City, and the final action is imminent, Cliff as a shield is no longer important, but will become a troublesome burden.So Sol decided to be a favor and handed him over to the four major chambers of commerce.

When Chesler, who was invited, heard the news, he couldn't help but be very pleasantly surprised.

With their contacts in Ferry City, they naturally heard a little about Cliff's disappearance.Although they also suspected that it was Sol's hand, but Sol didn't express it, so it was difficult for them to ask.

Now when he heard that Sol actually wanted to hand over Cliff, whom the four major chambers of commerce had been willing to acquire, to his own side, the unhappiness that Sol had concealed the truth was immediately thrown into the sky.

"Of course, this is an agreement I reached with your Chamber of Commerce early on. We are all trustworthy people, right?" Sol said with a smile.

"Of course, of course." Chesler nodded in joy.

At this time, Saul was also quietly observing Chesler's reaction, and found that the other party's surprise did not seem to be fake, that is to say, Chesler knew nothing about their kidnapping of Cliff.

It seems that the mysterious person who came to help that night should not be a member of the four major chambers of commerce.So, who could it be?

However, now is obviously not the time to pursue this issue, Sol quickly put it behind him, and waved his hand: "Bring people up."

Soon, two defenders brought Cliff over.Seeing that he was right, Chesler couldn't help but said, "Master Cliff, do you know me?"

Cliff was suddenly taken out of the cell, feeling strange.Hearing Chesler's words, he couldn't help but take a careful look at him.

"Huh? How is it possible, you belong to the four major chambers of commerce..." Suddenly, his face changed slightly.

Looking at Saul, then at Chesler, Cliff suddenly understood everything.

He snorted, "It's no wonder that you are colluding with the four major chambers of commerce. It's no wonder that you can sneak into Feili City secretly. But your chamber of commerce dares to assist Lu Lin's enemies. Aren't you afraid of arousing the wrath of the empire?"

"Compared to your hatred for killing President Morant, it is totally worth taking this risk." Chesler gave him a cold look: "And, we have already been rewarded."

"What, you want to hand me over to them?" Cliff finally panicked after guessing what Chesler meant.

"I can't help it. Who told me that I promised him a long time ago that I would treat you as a gift." Sol shrugged.

For a long time, Cliff firmly believed that although he was kidnapped by Sol, Sol also needed to make his own amulet, so he didn't dare to do anything to him.

The current Sol is just the turtle in the urn of Ferry City, surviving on his own.Sooner or later, Felino would find them and save himself.

Therefore, although he was in a dangerous situation, he has always been calm and poised, maintaining the majesty of a nobleman.

Unexpectedly, Sol actually wanted to hand himself over to the four major chambers of commerce, which was completely beyond Cliff's expectations.

He couldn't help but said, "Do you think you can escape from Feili City safely after you leave me?"

Saul smiled and said, "I don't need to bother you."

With that said, he turned to Chesler and said, "Okay, now he belongs to you."

Chesler nodded gratefully, and walked up to Cliff: "Master Cliff, did you think about this day when you killed Mr. Morant? But don't worry, we will definitely repay you." of."

Cliff snorted, turned his head and ignored him.

"What is Mr. Chesler going to do with him?" Saul asked.

Chesler said: "I originally wanted to transport him out of the city immediately and send him to the guild headquarters for disposal. But Ferry City is very chaotic now, so I plan to hide him first and make plans after the news passes."

Sol said: "The people of Lulin are very strict in tracking down his whereabouts. If a mistake is discovered, let alone all previous efforts will be wasted, and the four major chambers of commerce will be implicated. To avoid long nights and dreams, I think it is better to send him out of the city as soon as possible." .”

Chesler wondered: "That's what I said, but the city defense army has sealed off the entire city. It may be difficult to transport a large living person out of the city."

Cliff on the side heard the two brazenly discussing how to transport themselves as cargo, and almost passed out with anger.However, in the hands of others at this moment, it is no longer possible to maintain the dignity of the nobility.

Sol chuckled, put his arms around Chesler's shoulders and said: "Your Chamber of Commerce has done me such a big favor, I'll be a good person to the end, and I'll give you an idea."

"It's a bit difficult to transport a living person, so what if it's a dead thing?"

As soon as these words came out, Cliff's expression changed drastically.

"What? Cliff's life and death must be decided by the headquarters of the chamber of commerce. I can't arbitrarily..." Thinking that Sol wanted to kill Cliff, Chesler hurriedly said.

Sol shook his head: "Of course not. What I mean is, as long as it is not a big living person, it will be much easier, right?"

Not knowing what kind of medicine he sold in the gourd, Chesler said hesitantly: "This...Of course."

"That's good." Sol smiled slightly, and then called out the snake demon Xiaomei with a shake of his hand.

"Bite him." He pointed at Cliff.

Xiaomei immediately pounced on Cliff, entangled Cliff and bit his neck.

"No, you can't kill him!" Chesler yelled, thinking that Sol was going to poison Cliff with the snake demon.

Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, he saw that from the place where Cliff was bitten on the neck, a large piece of bluish-black stone covered the skin, and then quickly spread to the whole body.

In a short while, Cliff had turned into a stone statue.

It is another ability of the snake demon, petrification.

Patting the hardened Cliff, Sol said to the astonished Chesler: "I think, with the ability of your Chamber of Commerce, it shouldn't be difficult to send a statue of the respected Lord Cliff out of the city, right?" ?”

After being stunned for a moment, Chesler immediately applauded loudly: "So that's it, Mr. Saul has indeed helped us a lot."

He signaled to Xiaomei to squeeze some saliva, and Sol handed the small glass bottle to Chesler: "After leaving the city, as long as he is sprinkled with this saliva, he will recover. The rest is up to you."

Chesler took the glass bottle and said gratefully: "I will definitely convey today's matter to my superiors, and the Chamber of Commerce will definitely repay your kindness."

After speaking, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I shouldn't have said it, but since you have helped the chamber of commerce so much, I have no reason to hide it anymore. Please listen to me, in this house, there are A secret passage leading outside."

"Secret way?" Saul couldn't help being surprised when he heard him say such words: "What secret way?"

Chesler explained: "This house is actually a secret hideout built by the Chamber of Commerce to temporarily provide a safe place if something happens. In fact, in the major cities of each territory, the Chamber of Commerce There are similar places.”

"And the secret passage hidden in the house is for escaping when necessary."

Sol couldn't help saying: "Why didn't you tell me about this earlier."

Chesler said a little ashamedly: "Because the Chamber of Commerce thinks that with our cover, this house is safe enough, so there is no need... In short, the current situation in Ferry City is not right, and I want to send Cliff away again. I'm afraid I can no longer cover everyone, so I'm telling you this."

Although Chesler said it cryptically, Saul immediately understood the meaning behind it.

Obviously, although they have reached an agreement with Sol and others, the four major chambers of commerce are also guarding against them, and this secret passage is the best proof.

For example, if there is something wrong with Thor and the others, and the chamber of commerce needs to do something, they can sneak in through this secret path...

But Sol naturally wouldn't say this, he nodded: "I see, thank you for telling me this anyway."

Chesler naturally knew what Sol had guessed. He told Sol the location of the secret road, and hurried away with Cliff.

***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** *************************************************
After Chesler left, Sol called Das and the others, and soon found the entrance to the secret passage in an inconspicuous storage room in the backyard.

It can be seen that when the four major chambers of commerce built this secret passage, they put a lot of thought into it. The entrance to the secret passage was hidden extremely well. If Chesler hadn't revealed it, they would never have found out.

"How about it, do you want to go in and have a look?" Gain suggested looking at the dark secret passageway.

"Is it necessary?" Darth hesitated.

Walsa also said: "That's right, it's useless to tell us now. We will carry out the final operation tomorrow, so how can we use this thing?"

Sol, however, looked excited: "Anyway, this thing is quite interesting. Even if you don't need it, it's good to see where it leads."

"Cut, boring." Gein yawned: "I'm going to go to you."

Das and Volsa also expressed their refusal, obviously lacking interest in drilling holes.

In desperation, Sol had no choice but to call Kress, who had a bitter face, and took a few more guards, and got in through the entrance.

Unexpectedly, the secret path was quite long, and it took them a long time to get out of the bushes in a park, which was quite far away from their hiding place.

Now that he had come out, Sol didn't want to go back through the hole again, so he took Kress and others and walked back slowly along the street.

"Strange, the city is in such a mess, why does the city defense army seem to be indifferent?"

Along the way, looking at the messy streets and the thick smoke rising from all over the city, Sol couldn't help but wonder.

Relying on the rumors spread by the Thieves Guild, he successfully provoked a rebellion in Ferry City.However, what is strange is that the rebellion has already occurred for several days, but the city defense army did not carry out a comprehensive suppression immediately as expected, but only did some suppression to prevent the scope from expanding.

As a result, the chaos in the city has intensified, so that there are not many people on the street at all, and from time to time, there are bursts of cracking sounds from unknown places.

If it weren't for the protection of Kress and others, he wouldn't dare to walk on the street so swaggeringly.

"It's strange, what is Felino thinking, such a small rebellion shouldn't make him unable to do anything?" Sol couldn't help but think so.

"Could it be that he has some plans behind his back?"

However, setting up the teleportation array, capturing Ferry City, and rescuing the prisoners of Sidvila Fortress were all like arrows on the string, and they had to be launched.

In other words, no matter what happens, they must bite the bullet and continue until they succeed or fail.

Therefore, although he faintly felt that something was wrong, Sol could only put his doubts behind him and concentrate on preparing for tomorrow's action.

The fight now is who can take the last step, he or Felino.

I hope... it's me.

While Sol was walking and thinking, someone suddenly called out in a low voice: "Master Sharonpas, is that you, Lord Sharonpas?"

Sol was slightly startled, and quickly turned his head to look. At the same time, Kress and the defenders had drawn their swords and stood in front of him.

But in an alley across the street, a man in a hat bowed his head and hurried towards this side.When he came close, Kress immediately pointed at the sword to signal him to stop.

The man quickly took off his hat: "Lord Sharonpas, it's me."

"Serang!?" Seeing his face, Saul couldn't help being taken aback: "Why are you here?"

The person who came was the leader of the resistance organization, Serang.Since he doesn't know Saul's real identity, he is still called Saul's pseudonym.

Serang said: "The city has been in chaos for the past few days, so I took the opportunity to come out and contact some subordinates. Now that the entire city of Ferry is resisting the occupation of the Lulin people, it is really a rare opportunity."

Sol almost fainted, why don't you find a place to hide and wander around, do you know that this is very dangerous.

He had no choice but to say: "It's too dangerous for you to come out like this, what if you are discovered by Lulin people?"

Serang said indifferently: "Don't worry, the Lulin people don't have time to look for me. Now the whole city of Feili is against them. These guys' days will not last long."

"You...how long have you been doing this?" Saul had no choice but to ask him.

"Two or three days." Serang said, "I have already contacted many subordinates."

As he spoke, he lowered his voice and said, "Lord Sharonbas, how are you preparing for the Sidvila Fortress?"

Suddenly, Saul felt a great danger subconsciously.Taking advantage of the chaos in Feili City, Sai Lang came out to do activities without authorization, which was absolutely beyond his expectation.

Obviously, he has been hiding for so long, and he has been suffocating for a long time. Now that he sees such a good opportunity, how can he hide?
In the final analysis, Serang was just a small leader of a rebel organization after all, and he was so complacent that he had long forgotten the most important things.

Sol can't blame him for this, after all, he can't really restrict his personal freedom.He had no choice but to say vaguely: "It's okay. Anyway, it's too dangerous for you to act casually like this. You'd better go back quickly."

It could be seen that Serang didn't take his words seriously at all, he said perfunctorily: "I understand. Don't worry, I'm very careful, and I will never be targeted by Lulin people."

Then, he said excitedly: "It seems that the Lulin people can't stay in Ferry City any longer, and my organization is also preparing to join this resistance riot. In addition, when you need our help, please feel free to tell me, I will help you." More people can be brought in.”

Sol sighed inwardly, as expected, he still lacked the overall situation.What do you mean you can't stay any longer?The Lulin people can easily quell this riot as long as they dispatch their troops.But they didn't do it, and that's the strangest thing, didn't any of you see it?

But I have to do the final action tomorrow, and it doesn't matter if Serang reveals his identity, so Sol doesn't take it too seriously.

He nodded: "I see, I will definitely let you participate."

"Then please take care, I still have to go to a few places to contact more people." Sai Lang said with a red face, it can be seen that he is quite elated these days.

After seeing him off, Sol immediately said: "I can't hang around anymore, let's go now."

Immediately, several people quickened their pace and left in a hurry.

However, no one noticed that on the top of a house not far away, several pairs of eyes had seen everything.

"Is that him?" a man whispered.

Another man took out a picture and looked at it, and it was a portrait of Sol: "That's right, he is exactly the same as the portrait provided by Lord Ferino."

The first man said excitedly: "Great, I have followed this guy for several days, and finally found the target. I will follow him, and you should report to Lord Felino immediately."

"In addition, inform the other companions in the city that the target has been found, stop the investigation immediately, and wait for further orders."

Saying that, the two men leaped lightly, and quickly moved away in different directions.

Not long after, in the headquarters of the city defense army, upon hearing Yeying's report, Felino picked up a chess piece and put it on the chessboard in front of him.

"It's a pity, Saul, it seems that the last step, I will be the general first."
