Chapter 24 Chapter 24(3/4)
"How long will you continue to follow?" Qiao Nan stopped and asked.
When they heard this sentence, they realized that they had followed Qiao Nan to such a remote and quiet place, almost isolated from the outside world.
The moment they realized something was wrong, they turned around and ran away. They had no intention of talking to Qiao Nan. Their goal was very clear, which was to escape.
It was impossible to take action. They had not made any preparations. It was very likely that the boat would capsize in the gutter. It was better to leave first and wait until they found an opportunity to make plans.
If a fight really breaks out here, it will easily attract the attention of the people patrolling nearby. If we really attract them here, the two of them will really not be able to escape.
Amos was a little annoyed.
This is the bad thing about this identity. No matter what kind of small fish or shrimp they are, they will keep an eye on them and have no deterrent effect at all.
But he was a little confused as to why these people were targeting His Majesty. His Majesty had done nothing since he came to the Demon Realm. He also believed that His Majesty had hidden his identity very well and it was impossible for anyone to know his true identity.
The two brothers had a good plan, but unfortunately the actual situation was different from what they imagined. The entrance to the alley was obviously not far away, and they could even see the figures walking on the street outside and the sounds of vendors shouting, but they
But he found that he couldn't leave this alley at all. He was right at hand, but he couldn't catch it.
"Don't waste any more time." Qiao Nan snapped his fingers and closed the alley completely: "It would be better if you hurry up and tell me what is going on. If you know each other, I can let you go.
A way out."
Could it be because someone discovered what he was doing in the guild?
Is it the person in charge? Or maybe they think they are richer and want to rob them?
The first one is unlikely. The person in charge recognized Amos and would definitely not dare to retaliate against him in front of Amos.
The second possibility is that these two people are swordsmen in their sixties. Swordsmen at this level can also make money very much, and they don't even bother to steal other people's things.
Then there is only one possibility left.
"Who's hiring you?"
The most likely thing is that someone has placed a bounty on themselves, and these people are bounty hunters.
Qiao Nan can probably guess who is the person who is offering a huge bounty to him.
It should be his brother Qiao Jiarui.
I know that he is in the game, and the other party must also know that he is the first one. If he doesn't find something to do with his character, it would be a shame for his character.
He has always been narrow-minded and keen to cause trouble for others. If he doesn't do something, he will really be sorry for his status as a spoiled young master.
Anyway, we are in the game now. Even if Qiao Jiarui kills himself in the game, his body will not die.
He will definitely spend money to cause trouble for himself. If he can't do it himself, then he will spend money to find others. There are so many desperadoes on this continent who spend money to make trouble, and there must be someone who dares to take the order.
It's just that Qiao Nan didn't expect it to arrive so quickly, because the people who came here didn't seem very smart.
The two of them didn't speak, but their silent attitude said everything.
The two of them had indeed accepted someone else's commission to assassinate him.
"Let me guess, is it a toast?"
toast?
Amos took the name to heart.
Anyone who can be remembered by His Majesty and talk about it whenever he is assassinated must have a grudge against His Majesty, and it is a blood feud.
Find a time to catch this person.
The two of them still didn't speak.
Because the person who placed the reward was not Toast, but a person named Qiao Jiarui.
Bounty hunters don't have their own organizations like regular magicians and swordsmen do today, and the country gives them bonuses and training resources.
They need to support themselves and have more money needs than ordinary magicians and swordsmen.
Players in the game have similar characteristics to bounty hunters, except that they have one more option to join the official organization.
Of course, you can also support yourself like these bounty hunters, which will give you a higher degree of freedom, and you won't feel uncomfortable because of the rules and regulations of the government.
The most attractive thing about a bounty hunter is his freedom. He doesn't have to obey work and rest, and he doesn't have to listen to other people's orders. He only needs to be happy by himself. He is a very typical type who can feed himself and the whole family without being hungry.
These people are used to licking blood from the tip of a knife, and they have never shown mercy, because they also know that if they don't do anything, the other party will use their lives as success stories to buy better materials and equipment.
Qiao Jiarui did not use the name [Toast] when he placed the bounty. Compared with other real names, the name [Toast] is much more recognizable. If players know that he is chasing Qiao Nan, it will not sound good.
"It seems that he is not stupid enough to directly use this name to reward me, then...Qiao Jiarui?" Qiao Nan said again.
The two didn't speak, but their eyes said everything.
"His speed is faster than I thought, which is beyond my expectation." The smile on Qiao Nan's face became wider. "It seems that he has not been eating, drinking and having fun during this time."
But he is still a straw bag.
When offering a bounty to others, he actually exposed his own name. This was one of the stupidest behaviors he had ever seen.
"Okay, you can go back." Qiao Nan waved to them, "I don't like to argue. Since you haven't done anything, I choose to forgive you."
The two brothers looked at each other with disbelief on their faces.
Is this person so naive? They came to kill him, and he just let them go?
It was really unlucky for the two of them.
Amos also strongly disagreed. He felt that letting these two men go would be letting the tiger go back to the mountain. Why not capture them and torture them to force them to reveal the traces of the people who put a bounty on him.
So these two people who believe what they say are really stupid.
Just when the two thought they had escaped, their eyes suddenly turned dark from a very close light, and their vision also fell into darkness.
After Qiao Nan confirmed that people would not be able to wake up within a short period of time, he put his consciousness deep into their minds and began to read their memories.
The place where these two people received the mission was in a small pub. The atmosphere was very lively. Most of the people sitting and drinking inside were old and rough, and they looked like they were quite difficult to mess with.
The tavern was noisy. Most people were fist-fighting and drinking. There were even people fighting in the corner. Qiao Nan directly adjusted the time and continued to pull back. Then he saw a man wearing a gray cloak, whose entire figure was
A man wrapped up tightly.
From his exposed fingers and half-open chin, it can be seen that the other person is not very old, but maybe because of the cloak, outsiders cannot accurately judge its level and ability.
"I want the next reward." After the man walked in, he walked directly to the bar, took a bag of gold and placed it on the bar of the tavern. In front of him was the plump proprietress.
The proprietress stared at the man, opened the bag of gold coins, and took a step back because of the golden coins inside.
There should be at least 30,000 gold coins in it.
The purchasing power of 30,000 gold coins is very impressive. Those nobles may not care much about 30,000 gold coins, but for ordinary people like them, 30,000 gold coins is already a price that makes people jealous.
"If the task is too difficult, these gold coins are not enough." The boss lady checked it and found that there were indeed 30,000 gold coins in it, and she immediately accepted it with a smile on her face.
"This commission is not difficult. Of course, you have to do it to satisfy me." The man took out a piece of parchment with a portrait of Qiao Nan on it.
Since Qiao Nan dared to directly use his real name as the game ID, his current appearance is likely to be similar to that outside the game. He found someone to draw a portrait, and then gave the portrait to the place where he was commissioned.
This is not the only organization that accepts commissions and issues bounties. Qiao Jiarui made many preparations and assigned tasks to several different commission offices to ensure that every place in the mainland could see this bounty.
As for the money it might cost?
The entire Qiao family belongs to him, and the daily revenue from this game is also very impressive. How could he be stingy with such a small amount of money?
What Qiao Nan couldn't believe was that Qiao Jiarui actually came over to offer the reward in person.
His level is only over 20, and he has not yet broken through to level 30. He went to such a place surrounded by wolves alone without anyone accompanying him, and even exposed his wealth. He could imagine Qiao Jiarui's reaction after leaving.
How many people would come to ambush him, trying to steal valuable things from him, and it was also possible to kill him and silence him.
"A fifty-fifth level magician is now in the Demon Realm. Kill him or beat him to a disability and bring him to me. If you kill him, you must bring his head. If there is no token to prove it, I will
They won’t admit it.”
A level 55 magician? Such a simple task? At most, it's a little troublesome to hand in the task, but it's nothing compared to the amount of this reward.
Upon hearing this mission, most of the bounty hunters in the tavern had red eyes. They knew very well how tempting such a reward was.
This employer has no rules about how many people can take over the task, so what he means is that anyone can take over, as long as the task is completed in the end. As for whether he kills the person himself or takes the credit from others, it is not up to him.
.
"We have accepted this mission, but if we complete the mission, how will we find you?"
"Go to Qiao's Trading Company and ask Qiao Jiarui."
After seeing this, Qiao Nan withdrew from the spiritual realm of these two people.
Is Qiao Jiarui really stupid enough to reveal his position, or does he want to deliberately expose his position to lure him there?
However, Qiao Nan thinks it should be the former one.
In the recent generations of the Qiao family, the heirs have been unable to stand up to the challenge, and Qiao Jiarui is even more unable to support the mud on the wall. This kind of cruel thing can be found out. It is conceivable that when he inherits the Qiao family in the future, Qiao Jiarui will
What kind of situation will the family be reduced to?
After Qiao Nan came out of the spiritual world of the two of them, he tied them up and threw them into the storage bag.
"Any clues?" Amos asked quietly, waiting for Qiao Nan to finish everything.
"It's okay, it's just a small thing." Qiao Nan didn't explain much. Instead, he found a small prop in his backpack that had little combat effect, but was very suitable for escaping and hiding.
To be continued...
