Chapter 97 Unsuccessful Operation, Fishing Plan
In the central residential area, in the outermost two-entry courtyard.
This is a Byzantine-style residence mixed with some European style. The house is not very large, but it has a fairly spacious courtyard.
There is a sense of refinement inside and out.
However, the lush weeds in the courtyard and the moss growing under the surrounding walls indicated that the yard had been abandoned for some time.
In the imperial capital, this type of house was definitely not something that ordinary people could buy and live in in the past, because it was a place where only nobles could live.
Even the smallest noble, of course, that was before the Blood Emperor came to power.
In the spacious courtyard.
“Roar!” Suddenly a shrill roar was heard, but the voice was obviously lacking in strength.
This is a ogre.
He is about two meters and five centimeters tall, which is relatively short among adult ogres.
The other party was currently tied to a solid stone chair, his head kept twisting, but his huge body did not move at all, only twitching from time to time like a conditioned reflex.
This strange condition proved that the ogre had suffered some serious trauma, resulting in only its head being able to move.
"It fell again. It's not good for people nearby to hear you yelling like that."
Tang Zheng sighed lightly and walked out from behind the ogre, holding two fist-sized bones covered in blood in his hands.
Judging from the shape, it was obviously a cervical vertebra, which he had just taken from the back of the ogre's cervical vertebrae.
The cervical vertebrae were severely damaged. The ogre's powerful recovery ability would not cause its death, but it would cause its body to lose control and become paralyzed, with only its head able to move.
Pah! Tang Zheng casually threw the two cervical vertebrae in his hand to the little evil dog that had been waiting for a long time.
“Ouch.”
The little evil dog raised its head excitedly and bit both bones in one bite.
"Eat slowly. The next time will be five days later."
Tang Zheng casually reminded the little evil dog, walked forward, and stuffed the rag that had fallen on the ground back into the ogre's mouth.
The roar stopped immediately.
The ogre's ability to recover meant that Tang Zheng had to re-repair its spine every five days or so to prevent the ogre from breaking free.
He glanced at the little evil dog that was happily grinding its teeth on the ogre's spine and had obviously grown bigger.
With sufficient food, the monsters grew much faster than Tang Zheng expected.
When he left E-Rantel a month ago, the little evil dog only raised its head to the level of his calves, but now when it raised its head, it was above his knees.
The length of its body exceeds eighty centimeters, giving it the dangerous aura of a monster!
That’s right!
Tang Zheng left "Ye Lantier" on July 18th, and more than a month has passed since he entered the Bahas Empire.
Now is the middle fire month, August 20th.
The operation was not going well!
The "Rocobolus" family, to which Renas belongs, had long ago driven out the cursed and disfigured Renas.
This incident also had some impact in the empire. Tang Zheng originally planned to use the Adventurer's Guild's intelligence network to find the whereabouts of Lenas.
But! Even the Adventurer's Guild didn't know where Renas was. After being kicked out of the family, she seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth and disappeared.
Tang Zheng could only rely on the few clues he had to search for a while, but he still got nothing. He didn't even see the shadow of the other party, and instead wasted half a month in vain.
The two reasons why he came to the Bahas Empire were, first, to become a "Cursed Knight" and second, to become an "Immortal".
Renas's whereabouts are unknown.
Fluder's whereabouts were known, but the question was, who was Fluder? What was his current status?
The gap in status between the two people made it impossible for them to even meet each other, let alone get each other's job.
The only person in the entire empire who could easily see Fluder was the Blood Emperor Gilgeikofer, and even that couldn't be seen whenever he wanted.
Such a situation.
This made Tang Zheng realize that he had to change his thinking.
so.
In the second half of the month, Tang Zheng began to make low-priced alchemical potions and sell them to make a name for himself as quickly as possible.
And deliberately spread the rumor that he could make alchemical potions to treat any injury! But at present.
His "fishing plan" has not yet caught any real fish.
Tang Zheng left the struggling ogre and walked to a stone table not far away and sat down, with a headache on his face: "I have wasted a month. I wonder if this plan will work?"
If the fish doesn't bite,
It was naturally impossible for Tang Zheng to stay here and continue waiting.

Whoosh! Suddenly, a figure in a black robe flipped over from outside the wall and entered the courtyard.
After determining Tang Zheng's location, the figure strode over.
While walking! The black robe opened slightly, revealing the brown boots underneath, and the slender figure dressed as a guerrilla soldier in lighter leather armor.
The other person's head was covered by a black cloak, making it difficult to see what was inside.
"It's such a pleasure to live alone in such a big yard." A cold and indifferent voice came from the mouth of the slender figure.
“Ahh.”
The little evil dog crawling at Tang Zheng's feet let go of the bone in its mouth, immediately climbed up, and stared at the slender figure with a ferocious look.
"I spent 50 gold coins a month renting this."
"This kind of place where nobles live is quiet, well located, and there are soldiers patrolling."
Tang Zheng glanced at the approaching figure and said with a calm smile, "By the way, can you come in through the main entrance?"
Ever since the Blood Emperor Gilgekov ascended the throne, he began to purge a large number of "incompetent" nobles. Not to mention the minor nobles, even some of the top nobles were cleared out, and many houses became abandoned.
Due to the severe reduction in income, some small nobles could not even afford basic daily expenses, but in order to maintain their dignity, they went into debt.
This meant that although some nobles' mansions were still under the names of these nobles on paper, they actually fell into the hands of some businessmen.
"Don't you know that there are a lot of people watching you now?"
The slender figure retorted bluntly, and then a pair of eyes that were apparently gentle but seemed a little fierce due to their narrow eye sockets appeared under the cloak, and glared at the little evil dog.
"What's wrong with this little black guy of yours? This is obviously not the first time I've come here."
Tang Zheng shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Maybe it hates people calling its name, or maybe it just simply hates you."
"snort."
The slender figure snorted and retorted without hesitation: "I hate it, too."
After saying that, he glared at the little evil dog again.
This caused the little evil dog to bar its teeth.
Hearing this.
The corner of Tang Zheng's mouth twitched. This kind of character that would even refute the little evil spirit dog would definitely be labeled as a "controversial personality" in his previous life.
As the slender figure walked over, the black robe wrapped around her body was torn off at the same time.
A woman with long purple hair tied in two ponytails and a cold face appeared in front of Tang Zheng. The most conspicuous thing was the pair of pointed ears, indicating that the other party was not a human, but a half-elf!
Imina.
