Metal Ranger of the Endless Plane

Chapter 39: Clouds reappear, with many doubts

The three people, who were always watching the wind and grass around them, saw the businessman rushing out from under the curtain of water for the first time. They felt that while there was another hole under the waterfall, the three also hurriedly helped the businessman down.

"Well, Mr. Darius, don't be afraid, you are already safe." The dark elf Artis hurried to comfort the panicked Red Guard businessman.

However, the businessman showed no signs of relaxing. Artis was holding his hands, but was grabbed by his backhand. He walked out of the cave, and kept muttering, "Hurry up, not here. Be safe, go quickly."

While the boy and the dark elves were looking at each other, the huntress asked sharply, "Mr. Darius, could it be that you were trapped in the cave because of these robbers?"

In a word, the merchant nodded repeatedly, and the dark elves suddenly realized why the merchant found it, but the merchant's goods were still not seen at all.

However, the same sentence made the young man's eyesight again.

{Xiao Liu, this is the second time this huntress has said such targeted words, right? }The boy followed the three of them out of the cave, while asking the same system in his heart.

【Yes. The first time, when the host could not find the merchant and wanted to leave first, she first suggested that the merchant might be hiding. 】

[This is the second time now. She seemed to have an early draft about how the businessman was robbed and how to deal with the robbers. 】

The boy nodded, not discussing with the system, but asked the merchant, "Mr. Darius, you were trapped in the cave by another group of people, so you hid yourself?"

The merchant ran, panting and saying, "Hey, I was robbed into the hole by a group of people! After the group tied me up, they robbed me of my goods and ran away."

Having said this, the businessman stopped a little bit, took a deep breath, and said, "I thought the group of people was kind, and they only robbed their lives. I didn't expect that shortly after they left, the band of robbers entered the cave."

"Hey, if it wasn't for the half-toned one that tied me up, the boat's knot was tied into a sail-foot knot by mistake, and I had to untie it in no more than two strokes, otherwise I would have been slaughtered by the band of bandits a long time ago."

"I also counted as my fate. I wanted to hide in the water for a while, but in the end, hey, there was a hole behind the curtain of water. Alas, "Hong Ding" is on, so next time I don’t ask a guard to follow. I will never take this trade route again! "

Maybe it's because of the fear for too long, maybe it's his own character, when the businessman starts nagging, there is some endless trend. It has a little benefit, and it tells everyone a lot of key information.

"Guard, please," the dark elf, who was particularly sentimental about the word guard, said after listening to the businessman.

"Ha, you don’t know anything about it!" The businessman smiled for the first time since he was rescued. Obviously Artis’s problem scratched his itch. "My brother Kaimatu, now Be an apprentice in a famous mercenary group, and it won’t take long to become a regular one!"

"When the time comes, I just ask him to protect me directly? Haha!"

The few people who said this were speechless for a while, looking at him like that, it was obvious that if you hire your own brother, you can pay less or even not pay.

While talking and laughing, several people had already walked to the place where the young man killed the saber-toothed tiger, not far from the gray wasteland fortress.

At this moment, the huntress suddenly said, "Well, the front is the gray wasteland fortress stationed by the Imperial Legion. Everyone hurry up and walk a few steps, and we will be out of danger."

However, it's okay that she didn't say it. When she said this, the merchant's face changed drastically. The Red Guardian, who could already be said to be able to laugh, became trembling again, and his legs and feet began to be unwilling.

The young man said in his heart the same system, {the third time! Xiaoliu, did I hear it wrong? Did she just reread the word ‘empire’? }

[She did reread it. ] By the way, the system replayed the sentence to the teenager again.

The boy nodded, but still didn't take care of the female hunter. He just looked at the businessman and said word by word, "You were robbed into the cave by a group of imperial soldiers? Have you noted their appearance? "

As soon as these words came out, the trio's complexion changed. The dark elf Artis was simply shocked, but the businessman was a little bit confused in horror. It was the huntress, with that shocked expression that made the young man think and act.

After calming the dark elf who wanted to say something, he waved his hand to the huntress. The boy motioned to a few people to quietly wait for the merchant's answer.

After a while, the business man said in confusion, "This friend is right. I am indeed a person dressed as an imperial army and kidnapped into the cave."

"But when you say that, I really haven't seen a human face. They are all wearing fully enclosed helmets, their faces are tightly blocked, the light in the hole is dark, and I haven't seen their faces at all. Now. It’s just that a few people have been talking in a Cyrodier accent, and I have always felt that they are the Imperial Army!"

"There are not many imperial legions stationed in the sky, and there are not many accents in the province of Cyrodia." The honest dark elf was the first to say. The dark elves who have a few friends in the fortress of Ashfield naturally have enough say in accents.

The boy also nodded and said, "This matter is very suspicious, but anyway, we don't have any evidence, so there is no need to entangle it. In short, if someone asks, either we don't say a bit of details, or we just say all the doubts!"

"In this way, if someone wants to make some political calculations under the guise of this matter, it has nothing to do with us."

After hearing the boy's words, the dark elf was the first to agree, which coincided with his thoughts.

But the other two's faces were a bit ugly.

The businessman's face was gray and white, and his lips were cold or scared, purple and purple, which was terrifying. He said tremblingly, "Political calculations? Is this matter so complicated?"

The female hunter's face was also quite ugly, but she just bit her lip and didn't speak.

Seeing that she was silent, the young man didn’t care about her. He just said to the businessman, “You don’t have to worry. No matter what the calculation is behind this, since they let you survive in the first place, you have to stay alive. Otherwise, If you are later assassinated, even if there is an accident, others will know that there is something tricky in this matter!"

With that said, the boy looked at the huntress intentionally.

At this time, the dark elf Artis also saw that the state of the huntress was wrong. However, taking him as a person, he will not be in trouble at this time, but silently remembered everything in his heart, and prepared to return to the Warrior's House and report it to the comrades in arms.

Under the comfort of the young man, the businessman's complexion improved a lot, but looking at his preoccupied look, I am afraid that I will say goodbye today, and don't even think about seeing him in Skyrim again in the future.

When this happens, even a slightly superstitious businessman may dispel the idea of ​​doing business here again, not to mention that he seems to be involved in a political framing incident. Since then, it is a normal and wise choice to never do business in Skyrim again.

As for the calculations behind this incident, the boy himself is not very sure.

First of all, this matter is indeed full of doubts.

First of all, why did a group of people wearing imperial legion-style armor rob a merchant? Is his goods priceless or critical goods?

Secondly, these people wearing imperial armors did not show a face, but they had to talk in a Cyrodier accent. Let's say they don't keep secrets, they cover themselves tightly. When it comes to confidentiality, the standard armor and accent is a big joke.

Third, as an imperial soldier, it's too unreliable to even tie a person down.

In addition, from the very beginning, the female hunter in the north has been guiding several people to rescue the merchant, consciously or unconsciously. Every time she gets to the key place where she gets stuck, she will suddenly say a word to search for Liu Yinhuaming.

All of the above shows that the identity of the soldiers of the Imperial Legion is very problematic. The female hunter in the north deliberately asked them to rescue that, thinking that she was a businessman who had been robbed by the imperial soldiers.

If it goes down like this, it seems that the situation is very obvious. It is nothing more than the northern forces of the empire that is dissatisfied with the empire in the local sky.

In Skyrim, some people from the north have more and more opinions on the empire, and this is not the first time that a teenager has seen it. A few days ago, the Ralph who followed Sileia to the Winterhold, claimed that he could not stand the atmosphere in the Imperial Legion, and was a hero who wanted to defect to the North.

Therefore, it is not surprising that things like this happen again.

However, the problem lies in the fact that the spy sent by the Northern Territory, the Huntress Beckhild, is really too good. She acted too deliberately, and instead made it too obvious that she might be a spy.

Thinking about it this way, if she is actually from the empire, it makes sense to play a set of thief shouting and catching the thief, or counterintuitive schemes.

However, if you consider that there is only one audience for the dark elves at the beginning of this mission, then this woman's acting skills seem to be enough to fool the dark elves.

My appearance here should be unexpected to the planners.

But is it really so?

What if the planner also counts that he will appear?

What if you let yourself realize that there is fraud, and it is also part of the planner's conspiracy?

After all, his own itinerary and his relationship with Artis are not secrets or information that is difficult to detect.
