The Mysterious World Under Steampunk

Chapter 156 Investigate and cooperate

Witzmir who opened the door happened to see the waiter who was fleeing away, and couldn't help being stunned. He looked at Leo and asked suspiciously, "What's going on with this guy?"

"It's nothing, I just scared him." Leo looked at the radiant Witzmir and asked, "It seems that you gained a lot yesterday."

"I've already negotiated with several people." Wizmir let Leo into the house, closed the door, walked to the bar in the house, and asked, "What do you want to drink?"

"No! I don't drink anything." Leo shook his head, sat down casually, and asked directly, "How do you plan to cooperate with the waste capital?"

Wizmir didn't expect that Leo would ask about this as soon as he came up. He was stunned for a while, then hesitated for a while, walked to sit opposite Leo, and asked in a deep voice: "I heard that the youngest son of Andre XIII and How long have you been talking?"

"It seems that you have a lot of eyes and ears in the town of Seventh Lake!" Leo didn't deny it, and looked at Wizmir with deep meaning, and said.

"I have done a lot of business here, and there is a chief wizard behind me as a backer. Even if I don't do anything, someone will come to me." Wizmir responded with a smile, and then asked curiously: "Can you say something? Say what he wants from you?"

Leo said calmly: "It's not a big deal, I just want me to bring someone in."

Wizmir frowned and reminded: "Are you crazy? The ten chiefs of the Wizarding Association jointly banned the Alcott family from approaching the abandoned capital, you..."

"That person is just his maid." Leo interrupted Wizmir and said calmly.

Wizmir said worriedly: "You'd better be careful, the youngest son of Andrei XIII is definitely a cunning guy. Even the chief wizard of Silvermoon City has mentioned it more than once, if he is not Austrian A member of the Alcott family, I am afraid that he can also occupy a place among the ten chief wizards. Moreover, he is also the most cunning businessman in Ten Towns, and has never lost a deal. No matter what he paid in advance, he will definitely It will be recovered tenfold, a hundredfold."

"You seem to be very afraid of him!" Leo said in a deep voice, watching the expression on Wizmir's face.

"It's not fear, it's just concern!" Wizmir was a little stiff, and then turned the topic back to what Leo asked at the beginning, and said, "How much do you know about Waste City?"

"I don't know much, but I know from the teacher that there are a lot of good things there." Leo solemnly made up an unfounded teacher to make himself appear to have a deep background.

"I think it's the same. In fact, if the master didn't order me to handle this matter this time, I might not know what Abandoned City is. Anyone who can know Abandoned City is a powerful wizard in the Wizarding Association." Weitz When Mir said this, he stared at Leo, hoping to see some clues from Leo's face, and guess who the teacher behind Leo was. Unfortunately, Leo always had a smiling expression, and he couldn't see anything useful. thing.

Wizmir continued: "However, the matter of abandoning the capital is still in the pre-preparation stage. Your teacher sent an official wizard like you here. It seems that your teacher doesn't have many people who can use it!"

Seeing that Wizmir was still probing, Leo didn't want to waste time on this repeated probing, so he frowned deliberately, showing a little displeasure, and giving Wizmir enough room for reverie.

Sure enough, after seeing the subtle expression deliberately shown on Leo's face, Wizmir was stunned as if he had received some important information.

"As far as I know, the ruined city that appeared in Seventh Lake Town must not be the main city. If your teacher wants to find the real remains of the ancient gods from the ruined city, it may be very difficult." Maybe he thought he had seen through Lei Regarding Ou's origin, Wizmir's always vigilant mood relaxed a little, which made his speech less rigorous, and easily revealed an important piece of information about the abandoned capital.

Leo just followed his words at this moment, and said vaguely: "After all, there is still a glimmer of hope, isn't it?"

A sentence that obviously didn't mean anything, it was as if Leo had acquiesced in his guess when he heard it in Wizmir's ears, and he also quickly adjusted several preset cooperation plans, and chose the most suitable one from them. That one said: "If I guess right, your teacher probably doesn't know much about the Waste City, but I can provide you with detailed information about the Waste City and help you communicate with other collaborators. How about letting you take the remains of the ancient gods first?"

"What do I need to pay?" Leo asked in a deep voice.

"Two things." Wizmir stretched out two fingers, and said: "One thing is to help my master get the dream stone, and the other is that if the waste that appears in the town of Seventh Lake is the big library, My master hopes that you can help him find a book called Night God's Sigh."

Hearing the familiar name Ye Shen sighed, Leo's heart moved slightly, and he felt a little surprised. He didn't expect that one of the thirteen volumes of ancient god knowledge lost in the world of Velen would be in the dream world. But after thinking about it, if the formation of this world originated from the night god's dream, then it would not be surprising that the book that recorded the night god's knowledge would come here.

"What if the waste that appears is not a big library?" Leo didn't show any abnormality, but asked like a real negotiating partner.

Wizmir replied: "If it's not the big library, my master hopes that you can help him get an embers."

Leo didn't know what the embers were at all, but from Wizmir's words, it wasn't difficult to hear that this thing was only a little less precious than the ancient god's knowledge of the sigh of the night god. It is also very difficult.

Leo asked tentatively: "Will your master, Chief Ninth, take action in person?"

"Of course it's impossible. If it's the main city, my master might be interested in entering it. But if the rest of the city is abandoned, my master doesn't have so much time to waste on it." Wizmir shook his head repeatedly, and then Said: "However, my master will not underestimate the appearance of this abandoned capital, so he will send the best disciple here. I guess he will send the master disciple expeditionary Lord Charles Ranko here."

Leo frowned deliberately when he heard the name. Although he didn't know this Charles Ronco, the name of the other party was very aggressive, and when Wizmir mentioned this person, his tone also revealed There was a hint of fear and panic, so he guessed that this person might have a bad temper and be difficult to get along with.

Sure enough, when Leo made a troubled expression, Wizmir immediately explained: "You don't have to worry about Your Excellency Ranko's temper. After all, the matter of abolishing the capital is also very important to my master. If the matter is settled because of his temper If he smashes it, he will definitely be severely punished, so he will definitely restrain his temper at that time. In addition, you also know that there are dangers in the abandoned city, and having a powerful person like His Excellency Ranko join will make things a lot easier."

After listening to Wizmir's persuasion, Leo pretended to be contemplative, and Wizmir was confident about his proposal, because he felt that he had already guessed who Leo's teacher was, and he also thought that the remains of the ancient gods were very important to the so-called teacher. importance.

"What if the remains of the ancient god can't be found?" Leo asked after a moment of thought.

Leo's inquiry made Wizmir think that the matter was half-successful, so he smiled and said: "If you don't find the remains of the ancient god, you can first pick three items from the other items you found, and you can buy the rest. Get 20%."

"Only 20%?" Leo pretended to be dissatisfied.

Wizmir quickly explained: "Twenty percent is enough. You must know that there are other participants, and they can only share 30 percent together."

Leo said indifferently: "So the remaining 50% will be taken by Your Excellency the Expeditionist?"

"Of course it's impossible. He can only get 20%, and the remaining 30% belongs to my master." Wizmir probably guessed what Leo would question, and before he could speak, he took the initiative to explain: "I Although the master did not come to the scene in person, he provided information about the abandoned city that no one else could provide. You should also be very aware of the value of such knowledge within the Wizarding Association. In addition, my master can also provide you with information on how to enter the abandoned city. Qualifications, even Mr. Dodd and your teacher may not be able to obtain such qualifications. If you don’t have the qualifications to enter the abandoned city, it will be very dangerous. Mr. Dodd should be very clear about it! So my master asks Thirty percent of all the harvest is not too much, what do you think?"

In Wizmir's view, the conditions he offered for Leo were good enough. Apart from the fact that the unfounded teacher he miscalculated played a certain role, Peter Alcott's contact with Leo also Let him value Leo a little bit.

Although Peter Alcott was disdained by most people of status to talk about him because of his background, but both Ten Towns and Silvermoon City admired him for his ability and vision. Therefore, when those merchants who came with special purposes knew that the person who invited them was Peter Alcott, none of them chose to leave, and all of them stayed. Listen to what Peter Alcott is doing. to get a share of it.

However, among the many merchants, even the merchants representing the chief wizards were not qualified to meet Peter Alcott alone afterwards, but Peter Alcott took the initiative to meet Leo, and with When he discusses cooperation, even if the so-called cooperation is only temporary, he always brings one person with him, which has never happened in the past.

It was also because of Peter Alcott's unexpected behavior that Wizmir felt that Leo must have something special, otherwise, Peter Alcott would not have treated a wizard of unknown origin with this attitude .

Compared with Witzmir's speculations and estimates, which were so close and far away, Leo actually got a lot of useful things from Witzmir's words. And the most important point is that the chief wizard of the wizard association has mastered a certain method to enter the abandoned capital.

From Wizmir's words, it is not difficult to hear that this method allows people to enter the abandoned capital in a relatively safe place, and those who do not enter through the correct method may appear in some extremely dangerous places.

However, Leo was more interested in the information about the Abandoned Capital as one of the conditions of the transaction, so after thinking about it, he asked, "Is the information about the Abandoned City complete?"

Wizmir hesitated for a moment, and said: "I can only guarantee that all the information that can be made public is in it. As for the others, I'm afraid..."

"Let me think about it." Leo pretended to lean on the chair in embarrassment, meditating, and after a while, he said, "When can I get the information about the abandoned city?"

Seeing that Leo agreed to cooperate, Wizmir was naturally very happy, and said: "As long as I report the cooperation, when Your Excellency Langke comes to Seventh Lake Town, he will naturally bring the cooperation agreement and materials along with him. "

"If I want to bring someone in, it should be fine!" Leo added: "Just bring her in, as for her safety, I don't need to be responsible."

Wizmir thought for a while, and said tactfully, "As long as you're not from the Alcott family, you're fine."

Leo smiled and said, "Don't worry, she is definitely not from the Alcott family, not even a human being."

Wizmir didn't understand Leo's words, so he could only smile in an accommodating manner. Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, and under Leo's deliberate guidance, the topic gradually shifted to the murder that happened in District 23.

"The heir to the Nowitzki family must have died in vain." The topic just entered the murder case, and before Leo could guide him, Wizmir suddenly said something sarcastically, and then he pretended to be mysterious to Lei Oh, said: "Do you know why he died?"

"Is it because of that prostitute named Melinda?" Leo pretended to be profound and said what he deduced earlier.

Wizmir couldn't help being stunned, then looked Leo up and down, and said in a slightly deep tone: "Mr. Dodd, it seems that you don't have anyone here who can be used here like you said, even To be able to inquire about such a secret matter, my people are probably much worse than yours."

Although Wizmir didn't say it clearly, it is not difficult to hear from his words that Leo's speculation about the heir of the Nowitzki family and the prostitute is true.

So, Leo smiled lightly and said, "Don't you also know about this? It can be seen that this is not a big secret here."

"Your view is wrong. There are really not many people in Seventh Lake Town who know about this matter, and there are less than ten people in total." Wizmir shook his head and said, "I did it because of He Nuo. The Wieski family has business contacts, so I can know some secrets of the Nowitzki family in advance through some means."

"It's just that the Nowitzki family seems to have gone too far!" Leo commented like an outsider again: "For the sake of the family's reputation and blood, it is understandable to execute the disobedient family heir, but afterwards It's a little too much to treat the corpse like that."
