Chapter 111 Don't Care
After the fight, Zhang Wei grabbed the lame man's hair through the sack, pulled his head up, and threatened him softly: "Just relax today. After we go back, I will accompany you to exercise every day."
A passerby at the entrance of the alley saw what was happening inside, took a look, turned around and left.
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he let go of the cripple and left with a relieved look on his face. He had thought clearly that Kelly and Veronica actually had an average relationship with him, and their relationship was not good enough for someone to use them as hostages to threaten him.
As long as Zhang Wei thinks these two people are unimportant, the threat posed by the cripple to him is nothing.
After Zhang Wei left, another passerby found a bag in the alley. He thought he had picked up a treasure, but he took a few steps into the alley and found someone crawling out of the bag. The passerby cursed "bad luck" and turned away.
The lame man struggled out of the sack with great effort. His face was bruised and swollen, and blood was flowing from his nose and mouth. He knew of course that it was Zhang Wei who beat him. This time, Zhang Wei's beating was a murderous act.
It was clearly a dead end, but Zhang Wei appeared behind him and was able to put a sack around him, which meant that Zhang Wei's strength was much higher than his own. So if he returned to the Baron's territory, wouldn't he be able to kill him at any time if he wanted to?
The lame man was shocked and frightened. He didn't care about his bad image and ran quickly to the meeting point told to him by the Blood Moon Cult in the surprised eyes of passers-by. Now the lame man didn't care whether the meeting point was exposed or not. He just wanted to use the information of the Greendale family in exchange for the protection of the Blood Moon Cult as soon as possible.
"The Greendale family? Got it." The contact person didn't care about the cripple's exaggeration. On the contrary, the more the cripple emphasized the threat posed by the Greendale family to the Holy Church, the more the contact person felt that the cripple was talking nonsense.
The lame man felt annoyed when he saw that the contact person had no reaction to such important information, so he quickly asked if his superior Sister Xing could be replaced.
The contact person was delighted when he heard this. This time, he finally shifted his gaze from the photo album in his hand to the cripple's face. He thought about it and did not reject the cripple immediately, nor did he scold the cripple for wishful thinking. Instead, he began to make plans: "Go and find the people of the Grindale family in the Barony. Then I will raise your request with my family, and they may approve it."
The contact person saw the cripple's face turn black, so he stood up, patted the cripple's shoulder and said, "The death of your boss and several other key members has not yet been finalized in the family, and there is a lot of controversy about you. Of course, I believe and trust you, so you have to make some achievements before I can push you up. Don't worry, as long as you work hard, my position will be yours sooner or later."
The lame man listened to the contact's big promises. Although he didn't quite believe them in his heart, he still forced an ugly smile on his face and could only say flattering words to thank his leader for his esteem.
When the cripple arrived at the gathering place, he found that no one cared about his injury. Even the baron frowned in disgust when he saw the cripple's "pig head".
What made the lame man even more angry was that the murderer Zhang Wei was surrounded by women at this moment.
Among the women surrounding Zhang Wei was Guan Jiao, a diamond-level adventurer who had previously gone to the Barony to handle a case. This time, they had accepted the guild's internal referral mission and were going to the Barony to investigate the adventurer riots.
"Why don't you just work for the guild full-time?" Zhang Wei teased Guan Jiao and her team. As the 12 little warriors of the Viscount, this was the second time they had taken on work that was supposed to be done by the guild themselves.
"Just making a living." Guan Jiao didn't care about Zhang Wei's teasing. She didn't tell Zhang Wei that if she hadn't learned that this matter involved Zhang Wei again, she would have planned to turn down the offer.
Even though Guan Jiao is one of the top twelve in the Viscount's territory and is at the highest diamond level of adventurer, she actually has little say in her own guild.
Contacting Zhang Wei was both a secret order from her guild and an opportunity for her to seek promotion. Even if her family refused to tell her the reason for contacting Zhang Wei, as an old adventurer who had been struggling for so many years, she still had this "sense".
After talking with the Viscount, the Baron gave the order to set off.
This time, Viscount Jin Hou provided the Baron with 12 knights, led by Deputy Knight Commander Fang, and a team of men, led by the centurion.
Correspondingly, on the Adventurer's Guild side, Vice President Jiang Mei led Guan Jiao's team and went to the Baron's Territory in the name of a special investigation to investigate the adventurers' riots.
A few days later, when the team arrived at the town of Bourne, perhaps because they had heard the news in advance or because there was no more looting adventurers to be seen on the streets, only the devastated and smashed stores, silently telling of the past.
The Baron led a hundred men and twelve knights back to the Baron's Mansion. The Viscount's army took over the security of the Baron's Mansion. The female knights were arranged to stay in the main building of the Baron's Mansion, while the male knights were arranged to stay in the side buildings on both sides, which were the homes of the butler and Qiao Rui.
Jiang Mei brought Guan Jiao's team to the Adventurer's Guild.
Zhang Wei originally wanted to take Samantha and Qian Yuanyuan back to the store to take a look, but the Baron sent someone to find Zhang Wei and said that Deputy Knight Commander Fang wanted to go to the Adventurer's Guild immediately to find out about the adventurer riots.
Zhang Wei frowned slightly and said, "What does it have to do with her?"
The messenger glanced at Zhang Wei and said nothing.
Seeing that the person who delivered the message didn't speak, Zhang Wei nodded to indicate that he understood and he would wait at the gate.
The messenger then left.
Zhang Wei had no choice but to let Qian Yuanyuan and Samantha go back to the store first.
"How did he react?" the Baron asked the messenger.
"He said this matter has something to do with Deputy Knight Commander Fang." The messenger answered truthfully.
The baron didn't say anything after hearing this. He thought for a moment and said, "Go tell Deputy Knight Commander Fang that my wife is not feeling well, so I won't be going for now. Let her go with Zhang Wei."
"Yes." The messenger took the order and left.
The Baron's Mansion Gate
Deputy Knight Commander Fang still brought the two male knights to Zhang Wei and said, "The Baroness is not feeling well, so we can go."
As soon as Zhang Wei heard it, he knew that the Baron wanted to withdraw from the matter. He didn't waste any words, made a gesture of invitation, and took Deputy Knight Commander Fang to the Adventurer's Guild.
As soon as they entered the guild hall, the sparse adventurers and staff in the hall quickly focused their attention on Deputy Knight Commander Fang. It was because her armor was too eye-catching.
Zhang Wei stretched out his hand to call the nearest staff member, and the staff member reluctantly moved in front of Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei whispered to the staff, "This is Deputy Knight Commander Fang from Viscount Jinhou's territory. She is here to investigate the riots of adventurers in the Baron's territory. She wants to see the president now. Please inform him."
After Zhang Wei finished speaking, he wanted to ask the staff to pass on the message so as to buy some time for the president and others to prepare.
"No need," Deputy Knight Commander Fang stopped the staff and ordered directly, "Lead the way now."
"I have to report first." The staff member responded coldly.
"You have already committed a crime in the Barony, and you'd better not aggravate this crime." Deputy Knight Commander Fang threatened the staff to obey her orders.
The staff member was so angry that she laughed. She pointed to the ground and shouted back, "This is the Adventurer's Guild. The place where you are standing now is the Adventurer's Guild's territory. You'd better understand the situation before you threaten me!"
Before the staff member finished speaking, the adventurers and security guards who were originally watching gathered around.
Deputy Knight Commander Fang frowned and placed his hand on the hilt of the knight's sword.
Zhang Wei looked at the tense situation and thought it was none of his business. He turned around and wanted to leave, but the staff and Deputy Knight Commander Fang asked in unison: "Where are you going?"
"Huh? Me?" Zhang Wei turned around, pointed at himself, looked at the staff and then at Deputy Knight Commander Fang.
"You are an adventurer of the guild, and you are so arrogant as to bring the kingdom's dog to the guild?" The staff member was angry at Zhang Wei. She did not appreciate the favor Zhang Wei had just done.
"You'd better watch your words," Deputy Knight Commander Fang pulled out his knight's sword a little, and then said, "He is the deputy centurion of the barony and has the responsibility and obligation to execute military orders."
"If you want to fight, just fight quickly and don't drag me into it." Zhang Wei said, but he stepped forward and pressed the knight's sword in Deputy Knight Commander Fang's hand back into the scabbard.
Deputy Knight Commander Fang glared at Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei pretended not to see it, and instead grabbed the staff member's shoulder, turned the staff member around, and ordered: "Now, immediately, tell Jiang Mei and Guan Jiao that Deputy Knight Commander Fang is here. Do you want someone to catch you?"
After saying this, Zhang Wei patted the staff member on the butt.
The staff member blushed, turned around and glared at Zhang Wei, then quickly trotted off to inform him.
"Okay, disperse, disperse. Do you still want to be a witness in the trial?" Zhang Wei began to drive away the adventurers and security guards who surrounded him.
Adventurers disperse the fastest, after all, they know best whether their pockets are clean or not.
The security guard said a few harsh words in dissatisfaction, then walked aside, but still kept an eye on every move of Deputy Knight Commander Fang and the two knights behind her.
Deputy Knight Commander Fang was very dissatisfied with Zhang Wei's attempt to smooth things over. She criticized him, "It is because of your connivance that the Adventurer's Guild and the adventurers are becoming more and more unruly."
Zhang Wei didn't take it seriously. He glanced at Deputy Knight Commander Fang and reminded him, "Have you forgotten that although the Adventurer's Guild is called the Adventurer's Guild, it is actually a sovereign country, protected by the God of Adventure. You are now standing on the territory of another country, so shouldn't you at least give them some face? If a real fight breaks out, who will suffer and who will gain?"
Only then did Deputy Knight Commander Fang shut up.
After a long time, Guan Jiao came out with a smile to greet him. She said sorry several times and said she was delayed by something.
Deputy Knight Commander Fang snorted and did not answer.
When they came to the staff passage, Guan Jiao smiled and said, "Sorry, only you and Zhang Wei can enter. In view of the impolite behavior of the two knights just now, please leave the guild's territory immediately."
When Deputy Knight Commander Fang saw Guan Jiao killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, his face suddenly turned cold.
