Chapter 399 Weird Guest
Chapter 399 Weird Guest
Julian didn't doubt that the dwarf assassin intended to harm him. With the opponent's strength, it was much more convenient to attack and assassinate him directly than to use the cursed gem.
We must know that the profession of assassin is not fake, but his high attack is not for nothing.
What's more, who has ever seen an assassin assassinate carelessly?Lurking and hiding, seizing the opportunity to strike a fatal blow is the normal operation of an assassin, so when facing a seventh-level assassin, even a rough-skinned and thick-skinned paladin like Owen has to be careful, like Julian (relatively) Not to mention the crispy legal system.
"Senior, wait a moment." Julian suddenly shouted towards the window.
Soon, a miniature figure came out from the shadows and looked at him in surprise: "Are you looking for me?"
Julian smiled slightly, knowing that he hadn't gone far at all!Don't think that his magic circles are all vegetarian!
"That's right, I have something to ask you." Julian said very politely.
"Tell me." Hughes didn't say whether he would answer, but sat on the window sill with his short legs drooping.
Julian pointed to the gem thrown in the corner by Owen: "May I ask where you got this gem from?"
Hughes swayed his legs back and forth slightly, and looked at Julian with meaningful eyes: "Do you think there is something wrong with this gem?"
Julian smiled: "I forgot to introduce myself, I am Cliff from Julian Lake. This is my friend Owen Garcia."
Hughes raised his eyebrows: "That... the legendary Julian?"
Julian suddenly became black, what the hell is it in the legend?
Hughes smiled, jumped off the window sill, returned to the ponytail, looked him up and down, and said to himself: "Seventh-level magister? Tsk, no wonder I always feel that something is wrong." After finishing speaking He touched his chin, "Owen Garcia, this name sounds familiar too..."
"Remember, aren't you the knight commander of the Church of the Holy Light?" Hughes looked at the two of them suspiciously: "It seems that I heard that you two have a good relationship, but..." No matter how good the relationship is, there is no need to rent a small courtyard Bar?
Maybe they have some secrets to discuss?
Hughes didn't think much about it, as an assassin, he knew very well that the more he knew, the faster he would die.So his mouth has always been very strict.
And most importantly! ! !
The two in front of him are masters who are not inferior to him in strength. If they really fight, he, an assassin who has already exposed his figure, may be worse.
In addition, Julian still has such big backers behind him. Even if he pretends to run away, the legendary strong may not catch up, but it is not a matter of life and death. Who has nothing to do to offend a legendary strong Woolen cloth……
"What's wrong with this gem?" Hughes didn't delve into the relationship between Julian and Owen, but he cared about this emerald.
As an assassin, he had seen a lot of jewels. This emerald had been in his hands for a while, but he didn't find anything unusual about it.
As for Julian lying to him, he thinks it's impossible. There is no need for both parties to have no grievances.
Julian thought about it, and felt that it would be no problem to spread the matter.Now that this thing has started to spread, it would be good to let more people know about his danger.
He pointed to the emerald: "This gem is a cursed gem, and there is an evil spirit hidden in it. If you are in contact with the gem for a long time, the evil spirit will absorb your energy and grow. Come out and exist instead of yourself.
Hughes twitched fiercely: "What kind of weird curse is this?"
Julian shrugged, saying he didn't know either.Even the specific effect of this curse, he still heard it from the golden crown.
"How do you know it's a cursed gem?" Hughes was bold. Hearing that Julian said that it would take a while for this thing to work, he picked it up and looked at it carefully for a long time, but he couldn't find any clues. .
Naturally, Julian couldn't reveal the existence of the golden crown, so he could only smile and explain that his perception was more sensitive.
Hughes nodded, without saying whether he believed it or not, he threw the gem directly to Julian, but was stopped by Owen halfway.
He smacked his lips and said, "I got this thing from a young man."
He didn't mean to hide it at all, the corner of Julian's mouth twitched, okay, assassin is an advanced profession for thieves, and it's normal for them to take advantage of it.
He didn't want to discuss the Three Views with Hughes, anyway... Forget it, there are stories about robbing the rich and giving to the poor in Huaguo's novels, so why bother talking about it.
"Can you still find that man?" Julian asked.
Hughes touched his chin: "It should be fine, hey, stop talking nonsense, let me take you there."
"Okay." Julian agreed.
Hughes didn't waste any time, and directly led the two of them over the wall.
Julian was about to follow when Owen stopped him suddenly.
Julian:?
He gave Owen a puzzled look, and Owen raised his chin, motioning him to look at his clothes.
Only then did Julian realize that he was still wearing that straight uniform, and he blushed immediately, and hurried back to his room to change into another set of clothes.
"Your suit is not as convenient as the one just now." Hughes, who didn't know when he came back, said while sitting on the window sill and holding his chin.
Julian coughed twice: "This set is also good."
Hughes shrugged, okay, you have the final say, anyway, you are a squishy mage, and you have a long enough distance to fight, so you can really fight... It doesn't matter if you wear the robe or the one just now.
The two followed Hughes to climb over the wall again. After they climbed several times in a row and entered the street, Julian fell into deep thought: "Why don't we go through the gate?"
Owen paused, and the two looked at each other, their expressions were a little hard to explain.
Hughes was still leading the way, but when he noticed that the people stopped suddenly, he circled back and looked at them puzzled.
Julian repeated his words, Hughes touched the back of his head and laughed: "Oh, I'm used to it, I'm used to it."
The corners of Julian and Owen's mouths twitched at the same time.Is it true that when you relax, you become stupid?They both forgot such a simple thing.
"Ahem, don't care about those details, let's go, the hotel is in front, and that guy lives there." Hughes continued to lead the way.
The two followed closely behind him and soon saw a hotel.
The door of the hotel was half closed, and a boy who looked about [-] years old was yawning and was about to close the other half.
"Wait." Julian yelled.
The young man suddenly cheered up and showed a big smile: "Sir, do you want to stay at the hotel?"
Julian smiled at him: "Yes, I want to stay in a hotel, help me find a quieter room."
"Okay, no problem, sir, please, do you want something to eat?" The young man welcomed Julian in very enthusiastically.
Julian noticed that the shop was well-kept, with simple decor and the floors were swept clean.
There was no boss at the counter, but the young man nimbly got in from under the counter. After searching for a while, he found a big notebook and a bunch of keys.
After registering in the big book, the boy got out from under the cabinet and led Julian the way with the key.
"I don't like to be disturbed. Is your place clean?" Julian said casually.
The young man probably experienced a lot of similar things, and replied with a smile: "Don't worry, our rooms are very clean, and I have chosen a relatively remote place for you, sir. Although the location is a bit remote, it is very special. It is quiet, and the window is facing a small garden, the view is very good. I guarantee you will be satisfied, sir.”
Julian responded casually, the housing prices here are not cheap, and the people who can live here are definitely not those farmers who go to work in the city, and those adventurers prefer hotels with bars and dancers. The guests should be the kind of wealthy businessmen with small savings, or down-and-out aristocrats.
Don't think that the nobles are all rich, and there are many nobles who are poor and can't afford to eat. At least Julian has seen a noble lady who is about to starve to death, but insists on keeping a decent skirt.
This hotel is quite stylish, and there are no 'mudlegs' or 'rude adventurers' haunts, which is just right for them.
Julian and Owen pretended to be young masters and guards who were away from home, and talked to the boy without saying a word.
The young man was obviously unprepared, and casually revealed a lot of information about the residents.
For example, a mother and daughter lived in a certain room, and they seemed to come to Casgar to seek refuge with relatives, and another separate courtyard was occupied by a wealthy businessman, who seemed to want to marry his youngest daughter to a certain nobleman, and I am complacent about this and show off all day long.
Julian listened very carefully. When passing a certain room, a small stone suddenly hit his leg. His heart moved, and he asked inadvertently: "This room has a good angle. Is there anyone living there?"
The boy said: "I'm sorry, sir, is there already a gentleman living here?"
"Really? What a pity." Julian said regretfully, "I don't know what kind of people live here."
The young man looked around and said in a low voice: "Sir, let me tell you, don't tell others. There is a strange person living here."
"Oh?" Julian's heart moved, pretending to be puzzled: "What do you mean?"
The young man lowered his voice: "It's just... I don't know how to describe it, just... The guest here has been living here for three months, but he hardly ever goes out, and he doesn't even eat three meals a day. I sent it to him."
Julian pretended not to care and said, "That's nothing strange, maybe he just doesn't like seeing people."
"No." The young man waved his hands quickly, speaking in a tone of showing off, a little excitement, and a little unconscious fear: "No one else knows, but I saw him once, and he quietly put those The food was poured out, and he didn't move a bite. That means he didn't eat all day long, which is strange to you."
"It's a bit strange." Julian nodded seemingly knowingly, and asked again: "Then why don't you report to the city guard?"
The young man's smile suddenly became a little awkward, and his eyes wandered: "Well... we are in business, why are the guests in arrears for the room fee? We can't report it just because others don't eat? Maybe he went out to eat by himself Woolen cloth."
Julian could understand what he meant, and it was generally the case for small businesses, one thing more is worse than one thing less.Whether the guests eat or not has nothing to do with them, as long as the room fee is not in arrears, everything is easy to talk about.
On the contrary, if they took the initiative to report it, it would easily lead to bad consequences. After all, the city guards came, and if there was any dispute between the two sides and a fight broke out, there would be no place to claim compensation for the smashed things.
Probably because he felt that he had said too much, no matter how much Julian asked, he didn't continue to talk about the strange tenant.
