Chapter 55 Codename 'Poison Blade'

In the afternoon in Shining Gold Town,

a middle-aged man wearing a black tunic and with an extremely ordinary appearance walked into the noisy tavern of the Thick Eyebrows' family.

At this time, the tavern was gradually crowded with people. Many mercenaries, craftsmen from all walks of life, idlers, and even security guards who had just got off work would come to have a drink to relax after a hard day.

The middle-aged man in black quietly ordered a glass of the most common rye beer and took a sip.

What was not easy to notice was that his ears moved slightly, as if he was carefully distinguishing whether the guests in the bar were bragging and chatting to find the information he needed.

His nickname was "Poison Blade", and he was a killer raised by the Wilderness Brotherhood. His main job was to help the organization deal with some shady people and things.

This time, he received an order from above. It was said that a big man above had told him to kill a teenager and asked him to disguise it as an accident.

As soon as "Poison Blade" received the task, he made a detailed analysis of the task target based on the information.

'Ryan, aged between 14 and 16, son of a farmer in Goldshire, currently undergoing child servant training at Habsburg Manor, combat capability rating: Militia+. '

When he first saw the information in front of him, 'Poison Blade' did not show any surprise.

Because the habits of big men are quite unique.

He had done other dirty jobs before, and the objects were even stranger than this, such as a viscount's personal maid, a baroness's bodyguard, and even a newborn baby in a noble family.

Soon, 'Poison Blade', who was listening attentively, obtained the information he needed in the noisy bar.

"It's so tragic! The only son of the Ivan family died during the child servant training at Habsburg Manor, and was eaten alive by a jackal." A horse-faced man dressed as a mercenary said.

"Is it true? Isn't Habsburg Manor always guarded? If even that kind of place is not safe, wouldn't Goldshire be even more unsafe." The strong man drinking opposite looked unconvinced.

"Ha! Don't you believe it? The son of the owner of our Oak Tavern is in the servant training with the son of the Ivan family. When the boy came back yesterday, he was so scared!"

"But... It is said that he was the first person to call for help!"

"Look! The boy sitting over there." The horse-faced mercenary raised his head and gestured.

The strong man immediately turned his head and nodded without doubt. The boy sitting over there was indeed the son of the owner of the Oak Tavern. His name seemed to be Richard. He had met him several times.

"In this case, this should be true."

"So the servant training has stopped now?"

"Of course, since that incident, the servant training has been put on hold." The horse-faced mercenary drank half a glass of rye and burped with satisfaction!

'Poison Blade' soon learned that the servant training that the target person was attending had been suspended.

"In this case, the plan that I originally planned to sneak into the Habsburg manor does not need to be implemented."

"The most difficult part of the mission has been avoided."

This made 'Poison Blade' smile.

The difficulty of the mission has been further reduced, which is of course a good thing.

Now, he only needs to wait for the target on his way home and kill him.

The militia is slightly stronger, hehe.

At the same time.

In the administrative hall of Shining Gold Town, in Hamilton's office.

Willen and Ryan are sitting in front of Hamilton's desk, reporting on the situation of this trip.

"So the number of fishmen this time is much higher than expected?" Hamilton frowned slightly, and then relaxed the next second.

"There are loopholes in the reconnaissance report, but you still completed the task very well. Not bad, really very good!" Hamilton looked at Willen and Ryan with great approval.

It seems to be a good idea to arrange the two of them together.

Ryan's strength is growing very fast, and he can take on tough tasks, but he suffers from lack of experience.

Willen is experienced and smooth, but his strength is average. When he encounters a stronger enemy, he is at a loss.

The two complement each other.

At this time, Willen glanced at Ryan, and continued to report to Hamilton with a solemn face:

"Sir, after we wiped out the small evil fin fishman tribe, we also found footprints of ogres nearby."

"What? You found traces of ogres? How many?" Hamilton was shocked, and immediately stood up with his hands on the mahogany desk and asked.

"Yes, Lord Hamilton. We found huge footprints left by ogres near the fishman camp. After preliminary investigation, they should belong to the same ogre."

"That is to say, we can confirm the existence of an ogre."

"But as for whether there are other ogres, we don't know."

Perhaps because he was worried about misleading his superiors' judgment, Captain Willen was very strict when talking about this matter.

"Very good, you are right to be cautious. Ogres are not something you can deal with." Hearing this, Hamilton had regained his composure and sat down slowly again.

"It seems that we have to report this matter to the county town."

"My injuries are not healed yet. If there is an ogre attack like the one in Albero Town, it will be terrible."

Hamilton thought for a while, picked up the quill pen beside him, and wrote on a piece of white paper. After writing, he sealed it in an envelope.

Hamilton took out a piece of red particles the size of a fingernail from the drawer, placed it on the seal of the envelope, and pressed it hard with his left fist!

When Hamilton raised his hand, the red particles had been flattened, and a pattern of a night watchman holding a torch on horseback appeared on the flat wax.

Ryan then discovered that the ring on Hamilton's left middle finger was a seal ring, that is, a seal ring. The top of the ring was a small disc, and the surface of the disc was engraved with a special pattern or text representing the owner.

After doing all this, Hamilton shook an exquisite copper bell on the desk.

"Ding-ling-ling!"

A young man dressed as a guard walked in and bowed slightly, saying, "Lord Hamilton, what do you want?"

"Hardison, you will go to the county town immediately and hand this letter to the county sheriff, Lord Hamadi. Don't delay this matter, go now!" Hamilton said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Lord Hamilton." The guard named Hardison saluted and quickly left the office.

"Willen, notify the night watchmen to increase the frequency of patrols at night these days. I will ask the guards to participate as well."

"As you command, Lord Hamilton." Willen also stood up and left immediately, and went to make arrangements.

Now, there are only Ryan and Hamilton in the office.

Along the way, Captain Willen did not speak very clearly about the ogres. At this time, Ryan wanted to ask more clearly: "Sir, with your strength, are you so worried about the ogres?"

Hamilton nodded with a serious face and said:

"These evil and tyrannical humanoid creatures are generally up to three meters tall and weigh seven or eight hundred pounds when they grow up. They are good at using heavy weapons such as giant wooden sticks and mallets. It is difficult for formal knights to resist their attacks head-on."

"Three meters" "Seven or eight hundred pounds?"

Hearing these words, Ryan was shocked. He knew too well what these data meant.
