A sneeze destroys a magical civilization

After reaching the intention of cooperation, Zuo Si quickly left the home of the Thieves Guild, which made him feel very uncomfortable.

Because he could always feel that there were always pairs of eyes peering at him in those dark corners or in the secret compartments behind the walls.

Coupled with the intricate maze and various mechanisms and traps, being willing to take huge risks and walk in is already quite a respect.

After Zuo Si returned to the hotel under the leadership of a thief, Apke touched his plump chin and asked: "Iron cage and rats? Culang, what do you think Mr. Soth is planning to do?"

“Sorry, Chief, I don’t know.

But I once heard someone say that those rat people all have some ability to control rats and communicate with rats.

Perhaps Mr. Soth wanted to take advantage of this to poison.

Just like when he used purified ricin before, he quietly brought down more than two hundred ferocious pirates. "

The middle-aged mage carefully stated his guess.

Because besides poisoning, he really couldn't think of any use in catching so many rats.

"Well, that makes sense.

It seems that Lord Soth is not only a powerful necromancer, but also a master of poison.

I just don’t know what poison he will use this time.

perhaps……

We can spend money to buy some and apply it on the crossbow arrows to achieve better killing effect. "

Apke was obviously a little moved.

Using poison is as common as eating and drinking for the Thieves Guild.

But the problem is that refining and manufacturing poison requires a lot of professional knowledge, and not just anyone can do it.

And many poisons extracted from plants and animals are very difficult to preserve.

Often they just sit for a period of time and deteriorate before they can be used.

Therefore, a bottle of the best poison that can kill someone within seconds can even be sold for 1,000 to 2,000 gold coins on the black market.

Ordinary non-lethal poisons cost at least 200 to 300 gold coins for a small bottle.

Culang nodded in agreement: "Good idea.

Take the Amn steel crossbow we got this time and those armor-piercing arrows with amazing penetrating power.

If we apply poison again, no one should be able to be our opponent in a head-on battle.

However, the rat men in the sewers are still a big threat, and we need to get rid of them before the war begins. "

“On this point, let’s wait until Bernice comes back.

I'm curious.

Why did those rat men, who were usually cautious and timid, make such a big fuss this time? "

When he said these words, Apke's eyes flashed with a deep light, which was completely different from his usual smiling look.

…

On the other side, Zuo Si, who had just walked near the "Happy Time" hotel, saw at a glance that the werewolf children were still gathering at the door of the hotel, confronting the waiters and bosses holding sticks and kitchen knives.

Although no physical conflict broke out between the two parties, the tense atmosphere could be felt from a distance.

"It's late at night, don't you all need to sleep?"

Zuo Si broke this meaningless confrontation and mutual suspicion with a half-joking tone.

"Thank God, you are finally back."

The hotel owner obviously breathed a sigh of relief, waved to the employees to put away their weapons, and hurriedly ran over in three and two steps, complaining with a sad face: "Your Excellency Soth, please drive away these little wolves quickly. There are them Now, how can I do business in the future?"

"Are you sure you really want to drive them away? Leader Aipke gave them a reward of six hundred gold coins." As he spoke, Zuo Si shook the slightly heavy leather purse in his hand.

moment!

A crisp sound of crashing echoed in everyone's ears.

"Six...six hundred gold coins?!"

The innkeeper's eyes instantly shone, and he performed a unique face-changing skill on the spot. He immediately squeezed out a false smile and said: "For the sake of you and Chief Apke, I will reluctantly let these little guys stay for a while. After all, they just lost their home and relatives, so it looks very pitiful."

"Are you sure? You must know that they are all werewolves. They will transform on a full moon night and become a beast without any sense. If it is too reluctant, forget it. I will find another hotel." Zuo Si deliberately pretended to be hesitant. .

"No! No! No! It's not difficult at all."

The boss quickly waved his hands.

"You know, I am the most caring person and love children the most.

Let them live in my store and they will never be bullied by anyone.

As for the issue of losing one's mind on a full moon night.

I'll go to the blacksmith shop to order a few large iron cages, and then I'll just put them all in the cellar. "

"In that case, let them live in your store."

After that, Zuo Si directly threw the bag full of gold coins to the other party.

The latter immediately happily opened his arms to catch it steadily, and took two or three steps back to stabilize his body.

You must know that in the continent of Faerûn, the weight of most standard gold coins is generally around 9.1 grams.

The weight of six hundred pieces is just over five kilograms.

If such a bag of gold coins were exchanged for someone stronger, it could smash someone's head and bleed them.

But the hotel owner didn't feel heavy at all. Instead, he quickly ran back to the first floor of the hotel and collapsed on the counter, counting them one by one.

Zuo Si ignored him, but went straight to the little werewolves and said to the leading girl: "Six hundred gold coins, I believe it is enough for you to live here for a long time. If you need anything, just tell the people in the hotel directly , they will meet your requirements.”

"Can we give up the money and exchange for another condition?" The girl raised her head and stared into her two big black eyes and asked.

"Oh why?"

Zuo Si became interested in the obviously precocious girl in front of him.

After all, six hundred gold coins is already an attractive enough number for most people.

Being able to refuse such a large amount of money is not something that just anyone can do.

Fangus turned around and looked at the remaining members of his clan, and explained in a very helpless tone: "Money is of no use to us abandoned people.

Because abandoned people are not protected by law.

So serious businessmen are unwilling to sell us any goods.

Those black marketeers who are only interested in profit will decide whether to conduct transactions or directly exploit the black market according to the situation.

With our number and age, we are basically lambs to be slaughtered in the eyes of black marketeers.

Not to mention black marketeers, even the owner of this hotel, without your help, would immediately swallow the gold coins and drive us away. "

After listening to this, Zuo Si immediately understood how bad and harsh the living environment of the lycanthropes in Calimport was, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face: "If money is useless, what conditions do you want to exchange for? "

"As the current leader of the entire clan, I hope to become your slave or servant and gain your protection." As she spoke, the girl knelt down solemnly.

Not only her, but the werewolf children behind her also knelt down one after another.

This sudden and strange scene, as well as the incomprehensible request, directly confused Zuo Si.

He had seen slaves desperately trying to rebel against their masters and regain their freedom, but this was the first time he had experienced voluntary slavery.

Most importantly, why choose yourself?

Is there any other conspiracy here?

Zuo Si, whose thinking is somewhat "Dihua", will immediately fall into a subconscious reaction of "there are always unscrupulous people who want to harm me" once he finds that something good comes to him.
