Chapter 180: Lions, why don’t you open a winery?

Although the beggar king was dressed simply, he was still quite eye-catching among a bunch of homeless men and real beggars, especially with an iconic gold seal ring, all beggars and homeless men passing by would bow their heads to him.

When he was with other decent people, he didn't feel that the environment around him changed now, and he was so arrogant that he was so arrogant.

Ox patiently waited for the beggar king to return to his "palace" and quietly escaped into the shadow.

Seeing that all the thugs around the Beggar King had left the room, Oaks knew that the time had come.

The dagger is unsheathed, and the poisonous snake spits out the letter.

But a wonderful world always makes things develop in an unexpected way.

"Since you're here, why not talk."

The Beggar King's voice suddenly sounded, causing Ox's movements to pause.

The snake witch hunter looked shocked and suspicious. Could it be that the other party saw through his infiltration? Just because of the thin figure in front of him, he could not even wield his sword?

Oaks kept the dagger out of the sheath, and stood firmly at his hiding place, not daring to act rashly.

But after seeing the beggar king shouting that, he did not make any other moves. He neither called the thug to come in to protect himself, nor ran away and hide, but continued to do his own things on his own.

Reading books, counting property, and sorting documents, it really looks like a little noble.

I don’t know what documents he was reading. Do beggars and homeless people also have something to review for the "king"?

In a silence with only the sound of turning over paper, Ox drew his dagger again.

"Since you're here, why not talk."

The dagger was taken back.

After shouting, the Beggar King no longer had any subsequent actions as before. Ox frowned and had a guess in his heart.

He held his breath and counted the time silently—

"Since you're here, why not talk."

The third time, the sound rang.

As an excellent guest, Oaks is very sensitive to the intervals of time. The distance between the third call and the second call of the Beggar King is exactly the same as the second call, and the interval between the first one.

In other words, the person in front of me would shout this every once in a while!

So that's it, Ox showed a stern look. This guy didn't see through the disguise, but was cheating himself.

My own infiltration is still seamless.

But there is still a very serious problem here: Does the beggar king already know that the Snake Sect has defected to Lanen? He also knows that Lanen has formulated a plan to assassinate the gang leader? He also knows that they have been waiting for five days and are going to come to carry out assassination tonight?

If it is true, then a few of your companions may be in danger.

Oaks' snake eyes lit up slightly, and he needed to know the truth before killing the target.

In the room, the beggar king opened his mouth for the fourth time and was about to shout when he suddenly heard a strange sound coming from the roof.

His attention was immediately attracted, and as soon as he looked up, he saw a hand glowing with white light.

【Actic Seafa Seal】

The ether element representing the "spiritual" attribute invaded the beggar king's brain without any obstacles.

Oaks does not have the power to hypnotize people like Lann. His magic seal can only make people enter a trance-free state of resistance.

It didn't take long, but it was enough for a top assassin.

When the beggar king recovered his consciousness, his body was tied up. He looked around and found that he was actually on the roof of his house.

This is a place where no thug can come up. It is enough for Oaks to kill the target in an instant and leave the "rotten forest" like a swimming snake within ten breaths.

"I ask, you answer; if you dare to shout, you will die. Do you understand?"

The beggar Wang Neng bends and stretches his head as a bachelor, nodded very barely.

"Do you know which side I'm on now?"

"I don't know, but I can infer it based on information." said the beggar king. "The information from the north is gathered in Novigre, and Novigre's information gathered in me."

"Nifgaard is indeed far away, and a lot of news has not reached there yet, so the warlock and the emperor of Niffgaard did not know some key information, but I know clearly that Lannister had a conflict with the Lord of the White Orchard, and killed a sheep-horned demon there, and all this started to save a witch hunter, a witch hunter wearing a venomous snake badge."

The beggar king showed a disdainful expression, which was directed at Reins: "From the moment you appeared, I knew that the people would never become Lannister's enemies, and the warlock's plan could not go smoothly as planned."

Oaks was silent. Did he always have an exposed status in front of the beggar king?

"You know I'm coming to assassinate you, and it's today, now?"

The second question is that this is the issue that Oaks attaches most importance to.

"I don't know." This time the beggar king gave a different answer, "Home, beggars are my eyeliner, but they just saw you leaving Lannister's residence late at night, and then quickly lost your whereabouts.

I don't know your purpose, there are many possibilities for late-night operation. But coming to assassinate me, the gang leader, is one of these possibilities, and I can't take risks. I just want to cheat you every once in a while, and when the information you're back is transmitted, I'll be safe."

Is he really worthy of being the beggar king who started from scratch? Under this calm and leisurely attitude, is he actually a heart that is so shocked and cautious?

Oaks' heart fell halfway, at least the actions of his and others were not exposed, and the other two in the school would not be in danger.

Next is the third question, which is also a question that extends from the answer to the second question of the Beggar King.

"You seem to be confident that I won't kill you?" Oaks said.

Oaks has seen too many big names in life-saving ways. Those who are more advanced can exchange clothes as a stand-in, while those who are less advanced can allow their subordinates to surround themselves for protection. If they are not good, they can find a place to hide.

The beggar king did not choose any of the above methods, but instead used "deception once every once in a while", which was a very reckless and dangerous method, and even had the meaning of using himself as bait to lure Oaks out.

"I can achieve what I am today, but not by hiding from all over the world." The beggar king replied, "Novigri is about to usher in the war, so I naturally have to choose the winning side."

"I know you might think of killing me, and think that Novigrey would be better without a gangster. But that's not what you think about. You can convey my sincerity with Lannister, and he will understand: Novigrey, who only has Eternal Fire, is definitely not the best Novigrey to him, even if the Eternal Fire is his friend."

"I can also give you a free message: I am your friend, and among the other two representatives underground, the machete is not your enemy."

Ox was covered in his face and could not see his expression, but the expression under his mask was now distorted to the point.

The Beggar King gave a lot of information. Generally speaking, thinking about these issues is all about Resso.

The beggar king couldn't see Oaks' expression, but perhaps he was too familiar with the atmosphere of doubt, so he took the initiative to explain: "The machete received a dwarf traveler some time ago, called Zoertan. This Zoertan is Lannister's friend, and is said to have met Lannister in the white orchard.

In theory, Lannister is Dultan's friend and Dwarf's friend, so the machete will not deal with Lannister; in fact, the machete does not actually have much ambition or desire, and the promises of the warlock and Caleb Mange cannot attract him, so he is even less likely to attack his friends for the unattractive promise."

The beggar king sighed: "I just don't know if he has the luck of me today, and he escaped from under your poisonous fangs."

Ox's snake eyes flashed and he began to think.

Who came to assassinate that dwarf? If I remember correctly - it was Kogrim?

…………

Lane poured a glass of water for the Snake Sect Witchhunter who had returned in front of him and watched him gesture happily in front of him.

"So, the dwarf nicknamed "Machete", the person who is the Novegray inhuman race, is he actually not our enemy?"

Kogrim nodded, affirming Lann's question: "Do you remember Doltan?"

"As soon as I turned in through the window, I saw a machete hitting Dortan!"

"I drank with him several times in the White Orchard, and almost couldn't help but throw the dagger over to help him. But then I keenly noticed something was wrong - the dwarfs in the Zoltan team were also on the scene, and cheered happily on the side!"

Kogrim told Lane about his wonderful "assassination" experience tonight.

Among the three snake assassins who went out, Kogrim was the first to come back, but he did not kill the mission target, but brought back some other news, which also added a new possibility to Lann's plan.

"I looked carefully and found that they were falling, and after deciding the outcome, they were drinking together with laughter. So I hesitated: If the machete is Zoertan's friend, even if I have to kill him, I have to figure it out first. After all, our ultimate goal is to prevent the citizens from being disturbed by riots, rather than simply killing anyone, right?"

If it were the three attendants, in this case, they would definitely give priority to completing the tasks assigned by Lann without saying anything. However, the Snake Sect's Demon Hunter has a strong subjective initiative, and fortunately, they took action this time, which made them gain unexpected gains.

"As a result, I found that the machete thugs didn't look like they were going to riots at all. They had no equipment preparations and no personnel arrangements, and everything was as usual. Then I waited for a while, and after they disbanded, they went to see Zoertan alone, and Zoertan recommended me the machete with glory."

Lane became interested: "Have you talked to him face to face?"

Kogrim nodded: "I believe in Zoertan, and I have observed the environment there, and escaping is not a problem. I communicated with him while ensuring my safety."

Resor held his arms and was also on the side, not quarreling at Koglim's response.

"What have you all talked about?"

"That's what he said." Kogrim recalled and said-

…………

"You actually let the assassin touch it in and kept him for so long. Whether I can survive in the future depends on the kindness of the enemy!"

"Does your mind contain pig iron? If you don't have enough, just use a hammer to hit it more!"

It is said that only the wrong name is given, no wrong nickname is given, and the machete is famous for its hot temper.

There is a joke circulating in Novigri's alleys and dark taverns that Carlo Varese, one of the three local gangsters, nicknamed "Machete", is the best spokesperson for racial harmony. However, his principle is selected.

It is said that when he was young, he was a butcher and was proficient in the way of killing pigs. Soon after, he suddenly realized that there was no difference between what was under the knife.

Novigre's inhuman race rarely acts high-profile, and the machete is the highest among the people who act high-profile. He reveals his chest and likes to show off his tattoos and jewelry in full view of the public, making the oiled Mohawk hairstyle shine under the illumination of the oil lamp and is extremely conspicuous.
