Chapter 140 Corinna's Identity

Leon still remembers that at the gate of this city, he and his men were both troubled by the same guards, and they even had a conflict and offended the garrison Silver Star Commander Pasting.

Now, he can ride a horse and enter the city in a big way. Even Subaru and Tien Pi can enjoy superior treatment as subordinates. The treatment is really different.

The city of Tormond is as prosperous and noisy as ever. This is the first time that the two Thunder Beast Warriors have come to a real big city. They can't help but look at them all, especially the big hippo who grows big and has a big mouth that can't close for a long time, and their stupid appearance makes people gimmick.

"Lee, Lord Leon!"

A quick figure suddenly flashed out of the crowd and rushed to the front of Leon's mount.

"Bick?" Leon quickly held the reins, afraid that the wildebeest would step on this reckless little guy when he was frightened.

He saw it very clearly that the person who blocked the way was the rat boy Bick, the first guide he hired to come to Tormond City.

After not seeing each other for half a year, he has grown a lot taller and stronger. His clothes are at least clean, and his face is rosy and no longer looks pale and thin.

"Sir Leon, it's really you! How are you? I really didn't expect to see you..."

Bick's face was full of surprise and his speech was a little incoherent.

Leon rolled over and dismounted, reached out and patted his shoulder and smiled, "I'm fine, you're also good, you're like a young man. How is your family now?"

"Very good, my family is all very good, it's all for you, sir..." Bick's eyes flashed with tears of gratitude.

If it weren't for the money that Leon gave him, his family would have been unable to survive this year's cold winter.

"Okay, thank you, don't say much. Let's go, I have something to ask you!" Leon said with a smile: "Let's find a hotel to stay first."

With Bick, the land-headed rat, looking for a hotel is just a trivial matter.

After settling down, Leon took Subaru, Tie and Bick to find a tavern nearby.

After sitting down, Leon asked straight to the point: "Bick, I think of buying something in the underground black market in Tormond. Do you have any more reliable guides who know or know?"

The underground black market in Tormond City has a history of hundreds of years and is engaged in many businesses that cannot be seen. However, the underground black market has a very strict set of rules, and strangers, even nobles, cannot enter and trade them casually.

Unless there is a "leader", that is, the introduction or leadership of black market brokers.

Leon bought a batch of military crossbows from the underground black market through Panard, but Panard also found the buyer and source of goods through guides.

Panard was affiliated with the Southwest Provincial Garage Army. After being promoted to Beast Soul Warrior, he was even promoted to junior commander. Considering that his relationship with the garrison headquarters was not so wonderful, he was unwilling to find Panard to avoid causing unnecessary trouble to this friend.

"I have heard of two guides, but I don't know whether they are reliable or not..." Beek thought for a while and said, "Sir Leon, why don't you go to Miss Corinna? I think she must have a solution!"

"Colina..."

A beautiful and charming face immediately appeared in Leon's mind. Of course, he did not forget the mysterious and sexy behind the forest fairy bar.

But I don’t know why, maybe because Corinna’s identity is too mysterious, Leon always feels that she is dangerous. If she gets too close, it may cause trouble.

"How much do you know about Miss Corinna?" Leon asked.

Bick looked around carefully, then lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Leon, I heard that Miss Corinna is a daughter of Queen Sophia!"

"She originally had the title of princess and territory. Later, after Her Majesty's death, she was deprived of her territory and drove out of the capital Ugru, so she came to the city of Tormond."

Queen Sophia! Of course Leon knew this famous name. He really didn't expect that Corinna had the royal bloodline.

Sophia Rhine is one of the few queens in Bemon's history. She has a strong personality and a violent temper. She advocates never compromise on fighting the elves.

However, the queen reigned for a short time. She died suddenly after she ascended the throne for only five years, and her younger brother St. Berg Rhine took over the throne.

It’s less than twenty years since Queen Sophia’s death, and there are many rumors about her, especially some palace secrets, which are even more bizarre.

Queen Sophia has no husband, but she has many lovers and children. It is not uncommon to have a daughter from a fox.

But Leon could not see the characteristics of the lion from Corinna, so I couldn't help but feel a little curious: "Who did you hear about this?"

Bick is just a small person lying at the bottom of Tormond, and he can actually find out the secret rumors of the top, which makes Leon feel a little incredible.

"I know the coachman of Earl Kanton. Once he secretly told me after getting drunk, and he only learned about it when he heard several nobles chatting in private."

There is indeed no eternal secret in this world. Leon believes that Miss Corinna's identity may not be a big secret in the upper class circle of Tormond City, but it is really difficult for ordinary people to understand these secrets.

What Leon didn't expect was that he actually learned the truth from Bick, which was a coincidence.

Of course, whether this news is true and reliable is still to be confirmed.

"I understand. Don't tell others about this in the future, so as not to cause trouble." Leon reminded.

Bick nodded vigorously: "My sir, I understand, no one can say except you!"

"This is the best!" Leon smiled, took out more than ten gold coins from his pocket and put them in front of him: "You can keep the money."

"Sir, this is too much. The money you gave me last time hasn't been used up yet..." Bick waved his hand repeatedly, his face flushing red.

"Take it for you!" Leon stood up and said, "Go back and give it to your family to buy some food and use. You'd better find the craftsmen in the city to learn some money-making skills. It's not a long-term solution to be a guide."

"I hope I will see you again next time, work hard!"

After saying goodbye to Bick, Leon took Subaru and Tien to leave the tavern and took a carriage to the Temple of Tormond.

He asked Subaru and Tiepi to go to Shenhui Plaza to pay tribute to the giant stone statue of the Beast God and feel the power of the divine power.

As for what the two can get, it can only depend on their respective opportunities.

Although Leon has the status of a nobleman, it is definitely not possible to enter the Tormond Temple directly, but fortunately he also has an acquaintance in the Tormond Temple.

Through the communication of the grey robe priest guard, Priest Soder personally went down the mountain to greet Leon.

When he saw Leon, the bear priest seemed very happy, and when he met, he gave him a firm hug: "Baron Leon, long time no see!"

"Actually, I should have visited you long ago, but the territory's affairs are too busy. I only have time to come to Tormond City recently!" Leon said with a smile.

Priest Soder and Elder Monstein were close friends, kind and upright. After Archbishop Farns left, he could be said to be the most reliable and trustworthy person in the Temple of Tormond.

The only regret is that Priest Soder is just a white robe priest and has no say in the temple. If he is a scepter priest, then his weight will be completely different.

In the residence of Priest Soder, Leon expressed his intention: "Sir Soder, I need your help when I come to visit you this time."

"You said..." Soder nodded: "As long as I can do it, I will definitely find a way to help you. Archbishop Farns once told me to help you before leaving."

Leon took out a small metal box from the package he carried, opened it and handed it to the other party: "Mr. Soder, here are three ounces of mitril silver and twenty ounces of starry sand gold, which are the spoils I seized in the Goblin City."

"I would like to ask you to transfer it to the temple as a sacrifice from Thrall to express my gratitude for the temple's support!"

"Misins and Star Sand Gold!" Soder took a breath and looked at the shiny metal blocks in the box, his eyes changed: "This is too expensive!"

The public price of Mithril is 10,000 gold coins per ounce, but in fact, if you find the right buyer in urgent need, the price will rise a lot.

At the beginning, Leon didn't understand the situation and sold some mitral at a public price in a hurry to wait for money. That was a real loss.

The value of the loot seized from the Goblin City is far beyond Leon's estimate. The Goblin Lord's treasure is really a big advantage. In addition to some of it being used to build the Dharma Tower and the Holy Land Teleportation Array, there are also some extras.

This time when I came to Tormond, Leon brought all the excess mitril silver and starry sand gold, half dedicated to the temple, and half ready to be sold on the black market to exchange for what he needed.

In Leon's heart, he was not willing to owe too much to the temple. There is no love in this world for no reason. He was afraid that he would owe too much to be able to pay it back one day in the future.

By passing this expensive offering, Leon intends to increase Soder's weight in Tormond.

Maybe one day he will compete for the position of the scepter priest, and these small weights can play an unexpected role.

Priest Soder could certainly understand Leon's intention. He didn't say much, took the metal box and looked Leon deeply and asked, "What about the second thing?"

"The second thing is really trouble you!" Leon pointed to Subaru and Tiepi beside him and said, "For the sake of them both!"

Priest Soder glanced at the two of them and knew: "Well, there is no problem with the quota for participating in the trial. I will try my best to find a way for the ranking of the soul-casting ceremony!"

"Then please, sir!" Leon said with a smile.

He suddenly felt that this trip to Tormond would have unexpected gains!
