Chapter 355



“let’s go and take a look.” zhao xu instructed the coachman.

it was fine if they didn’t hear it, but as priests, if they suddenly heard someone else’s cry for help and ran away, they would only end up in a different camp.

This was also the reason why the classes like Paladins, priests, and Druids, who were easily nosy, had strong abilities. Otherwise, they would not have survived easily.

even though the coachman didn’t want to get involved in this mess, he heard zhao xu’s orders, so he quickly drove in the direction of the sound.

as the carriage passed through a pile of grass half the height of a person, the field of vision in front of them instantly widened. they saw a carriage similar to theirs parked by the side of the post road.

one of the wheels of the carriage had already sunk into the mud. a young woman in a luxurious fur coat was sticking her head out to observe the situation in front of her. She was holding a young child in her arms, and she was also watching the battle in front of her curiously.

The other leader was a dark-skinned burly man. He was carrying a tower shield and protecting the mother and son.

around the carriage, there were eight guards in silver armor and holding steel shields, vigilantly watching the cavalry ahead.

Outside the carriage was a company of cavalry, all of them riding on horses.

Although many of the cavalrymen were riding on short stallions that had average endurance and were unable to make long-distance attacks, they could be considered strong with their light armor.

The cavalrymen’s Black armor was painted with the appearance of wolf heads. They were still holding the reins in their hands to control their horses, but they had killing weapons such as sabers and axes on their bodies. They were glaring at the people in front of the carriage.

it’s the black wolf riders from nearby. It’s said that they do some dirty work for some important figures in Mystra, “said the leader.

The coachman usually travelled around Mistra, so he basically knew all the mountains around. He knew that Zhao Xu and the others probably didn’t know much about this, so he started explaining.

“They usually don’t wantonly Rob and kill merchants on the post Road. At most, they’ll just Rob. Now that they’re specifically watching this carriage, I’m afraid there’s a lot of inside information.”

zhao xu frowned a little when he heard this. he already had a vague guess in his heart.

at most, they would help when they saw injustice, but they would not get involved in the grudges and vendetta between the nobles and rich merchants.

Zheng xinyun, on the other hand, quietly slipped through the curtain of the carriage and widened her eyes to watch the battle that was about to start.

Madam Betty, hand over the kid in your arms so that we can go back and report. the leader of the cavalry, who was wearing a full-body armor, shouted. at the same time, he waved a long spear and pointed it at betty and her son, who were covered by a tower shield.

Madam Betty didn’t say anything. Instead, the brawny guard in front of her cursed, ” “black wolf riders, you’ve come to rob our young master. can you bear the consequences?”

“ha.” when the leader of the cavalrymen heard this, he waved his hand behind him. immediately, the other twenty or so cavalrymen pulled out their scimitars that glowed with a cold light, as if they were ready to charge forward.

The leader of the riders noticed the carriage that was coming from Zhao Xu’s side, but he didn’t pay too much attention to it.

He shouted at the carriage, ” “Young master? do you really think you’re rich just because you climbed up a branch? Why don’t you think about your background?”

Meanwhile, Betty, who was in the center, gritted her teeth and looked at the cavalrymen surrounding them with hatred. she knew that the child in her arms was her biggest bargaining chip. once she lost him, she would have no room to turn things around.

“Betty?” Ellington also recalled when he heard this name.

“Have you heard of it?” zhao xu hadn’t lived in mystra in his previous life, so the most he could do now was read the heraldry of the wizard families in the upper echelons of mystra. he didn’t really know much about the middle echelons of power.

Especially after searching for information about his own place and coming up empty-handed, he really couldn’t reach the stage where he could tell the whole story just by hearing the name.

“It seems to be the Redbud Chamber of Commerce.” ellington was deep in thought.

Chamber of Commerce?

zhao xu wasn’t unfamiliar with these kinds of organizations. in fact, he knew very well that the chamber of commerce of mystra was the white gloves for many wizard families. they specialized in doing business for the wizard families and accumulating wealth.

in all of mystra, only three chambers of commerce had been authorized to use a quill that could copy spells, and they had only been decided after countless disputes.

What Zhao Xu was facing right now might seem like a very small robbery, but it was actually a very small scale of the power struggle between the noble wizard families of Mystra.

However, the Redbud Chamber of Commerce’s carriage and the black wolf cavalry company seemed to be in a mysterious stalemate. Both sides continued to curse, but they didn’t attack each other.

As the two sides cursed and swore, Zhao Xu could tell that it was a drama about the grudges between the rich and powerful.

After getting enough information, Zhao Xu used his Level 1 cleric class ability “knowledge” to search for some information. After combining it with his knowledge (location) skill, Zhao Xu suddenly got a lot of information.

he began to fill in half of the blanks in the minds of the two people behind him and explained the sequence of events that had happened in front of them.

the redbud chamber of commerce was a family-based chamber of commerce. it mainly engaged in the trade of magic scrolls in mystra.

during that time, abel, the head of the redbud chamber of commerce, remarried betty, who was already a deacon at the time, after his wife was killed in an accident seven years ago. he then gave birth to abel’s second son, wilberst.

after that, as abel’s health deteriorated, the chamber of commerce slowly fell into the hands of his eldest son, harry, and his second wife, madam betty.

The two sides had been at peace until the head of the business, Abel, suddenly suffered a stroke and was rescued by doctors and priests. His body’s functions had been reduced by more than half, and he was drowsy every day, no longer able to manage the business.

at this time, the undercurrent under the chamber of commerce suddenly began to surge. madam betty also felt that the wind was not right, so she hurriedly took her son and fled back to her maiden home in frost dew town.

that was why abel’s eldest son, harry, had entrusted the black wolf riders to stop lady betty.

to him, as long as he had his younger brother wilberst under control, his stepmother betty would not be able to do anything.

“Captain, are we going to save them?” zheng xinyun asked.

After knowing that the other party was not a weak woman who had been forced, Zheng xinyun did not feel that knot in her heart anymore. Although she looked down on such behavior, she would not rashly intervene.

in this kind of situation where no one knew who was right and who was wrong, rashness could easily become a butcher’s knife for one side.

After seeing so many reversal situations on the internet, players now knew how to wait and see before eating the melon. They would cool the melon first before eating it.

at this time, the curses from both sides had become more and more intense, and they had even begun to collide their weapons. the sound of collision was endless, as if the two sides were about to start a life-and-death battle under the situation where they could not stop each other.

“i’m afraid it won’t be our turn to act.” ellington realized that he couldn’t provide zhao xu with more information just now and felt a little regretful. when he heard zheng xinyun’s question, he quickly explained his opinion.

“What do you mean?” zheng xinyun asked curiously. at this moment, she tightened her grip on the light crossbow in her hand. the bowstring was pulled tight, and the arrow was released at the touch.

that was what zhao xu had just taken out and given to her.

The old ghost hag’s defense was over level 22, so Zhao Xu didn’t plan on letting the two of them use their light crossbows to shoot. Without any experience, it would be easy for them to accidentally hurt their teammates.

who knew that they would suddenly encounter such a confrontation, so he picked out a new one for the two to make do with.

“According to the situation, it is obvious that the black wolf cavalry have the upper hand. Although the carriage’s wheel is in the pit, it still did not change to a Light Horse and escape. in addition, the chamber of commerce is engaged in the trade of scrolls, so perhaps the other party has some means of informing us and is waiting for reinforcements.” Ellington analyzed.

at this moment, he also remembered the talisman that zhao xu had given him, and he said, ” if that’s the case, then maybe it’s this madam betty who’s going to kill those black wolf riders later. ”

but zhao xu shook his head. ” there’s no hope for betty. ” I’m afraid she’s already realized that it won’t be her helper, or she’s just betting on a one in ten thousand chance of an accident.”

Before Zheng xinyun could ask a question, she suddenly saw the dust rolling in the distance from the post Road, raising a white fog.

A team of more than thirty elite cavalrymen swept over from the direction of frostdew town.

Compared to the ordinary cavalry company that had besieged Madam Betty, the cavalry company that had come from a long distance were all heavy warhorses. The cavalrymen in matte black full-body heavy armor were even more majestic. More than a dozen cavalrymen Spears were pointed at them in the front row, full of murderous intent.

“Let’s retreat,” Zhao Xu said to the driver in front of him.

harry was the older brother, and according to mystra’s traditions, the church’s power, and with zhao xu as a witness, harry was destined to have his brother wilberst under surveillance for four to five years until madam betty’s power was completely wiped out.

Following that, they continued to watch the show, which was somewhat against the norm. They were somewhat suspected of picking up scraps in the melon field.

Zhao Xu didn’t want to cause any more trouble, so he naturally decided to leave.

Seeing the identity of the cavalry and smelling the strong smell of blood on them, Madam Betty immediately understood that her family who came to pick her up had probably been killed by the cavalry from frostdew town.

Her eyes reddened, but she held her child even tighter. She looked at the leader of the new cavalry and couldn’t help but think of an escape route.

However, just as the coachman lightly whipped the horse in front of him and was about to get up and leave ...

there was a loud bang, and an arrow with eagle feathers landed just outside the car that zhao xu was in. the head of the arrow even went through the weak part of the car’s windshield.

The leader of the riders who had initially surrounded Madam Betty turned his horse around and looked at Zhao Xu calmly. my friend, you’ve been watching the show for so long. Are you going to leave so easily without giving us anything? ”
