Chapter 315 Assassination from the Sewer



Those who are richer will coordinate funds, those who have connections will look for them, and those who don’t have connections will provide manpower and effort.

The Spirit King resurrection match has not yet ended, but the Dragon Mark Family has already sorted out a set of rules.

"Well, those guys want me to lead a group of people to the fortress opposite to check out the situation..."

In the evening at the bastion, Carl looked at the plan sent by Joanna with a somewhat conflicted expression.

When he was just an ordinary student, he was always assigned tasks. Now that he is the boss of Storm Bay, he is still assigned tasks! Then his position as the boss of Storm Bay is in vain!

"You don't want to go?"

Seeing Karl’s thoughts, Joanna asked a little awkwardly.

Although Storm Bay is known as an adventurer's paradise, most of the top adventurers here are below level 8. It is rare to find adventurers like Carl's team who are above level 10.

According to the Dragon Mark Family's idea, those adventurers above level 8 will be Carl's teammates going to Port Dalcat.

Of course, they will also send people themselves.

"Of course I don't want to go! My research will produce results in a while, and I might be able to use this research to reach a higher level."

The more complex the research on the strange machine, the more spiritual feedback it will naturally bring to the strange machine master.

Carl had already gained a certain spiritual improvement when he fought the dragon beast before. During this period of time, in addition to research, he also did not neglect the exchanges with Hope, so his spirituality has been growing steadily.

Wiping the sweat off her forehead in embarrassment, Joanna said helplessly, "Oh, but~, the City Hall can't find a completely trustworthy person to lead the adventurer team."

Carl: "Can't it be a few days later? You weren't in a hurry when we separated just now, why are you in a hurry for me to lead the team to check the situation of the other side's port now?"

Joanna: "Uh~, sorry, Senior Carl, I forgot to tell you before, something happened on the surface not long ago. A Takanaan assassin sneaked into the Dragonmark Family's residence with a strange dragon-patterned magic weapon and assassinated the representative of the Linland Family... Fortunately, there was a high-level priest over there, and the person was rescued."

Carl: “Huh?”

Time goes back to shortly after Carl and the Dragonmark Family separated.

Just as officials in Storm Bay began to look for the Ruiyi Drow spies, several people who had disguised their appearance with disguise props returned to Storm Bay.

If Udyr were here, he would probably be able to recognize that one of them was the alien dragon pattern bearer who was chasing him.

“Rui Yi Zhuoer said that their people were discovered, but we also obtained some loopholes in the Dragon Mark Family’s protection system.

Unfortunately, the adventurer was only responsible for the maintenance of the Linland family's defense system. If he had taken on more projects, we might have been able to find the defense loopholes of several other dragon pattern families!"

The flaxen-haired man whispered his fantasy with a very regretful tone.

But his companions all knew that what he said was pure nonsense.

The adventurer had given his daughter to the previous steward of the Linland family before he got this project.

And there are no other female relatives in his family who can help him continue this kind of transaction.

"Humph! You don't look that good, but your imagination is beautiful. But since you are just fantasizing, why don't you just imagine that everyone in the Dragon Mark Family died of plague? Why are you still so timid when you are fantasizing?"

At the end of the team, a short-looking figure taunted.

Judging from her height and appearance, this is probably a halfling.

"Although what I said is outrageous, it is not completely impossible, but what you said is really impossible!"

Hearing this, the halfling woman wanted to argue, but the man who had already established his prestige when he assassinated Captain Linland stopped the situation from continuing.

“Okay, stop arguing. Although the Ruiyizhuoer spy is dead, he has created this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us.

Now, the people in Storm Bay are searching for spies and have ignored us. We must hurry up and kill a bigger guy this time!

Ah~, I never thought that someone in Storm Bay could see through our plan. We were discovered right after we left Storm Bay, and we almost didn’t escape.”

He repeated with his companions the goal of returning to Storm Bay this time. Finally, this member of the Takanaan family also expressed his admiration for the wisdom of Carl and others.

The buildings of the Dragon Mark Family on the surface are relatively easy to find. For the sake of ease of identification, Carl designated them and the elevator entrance as part of the landmark building.

Following the instructions and their own knowledge of Storm Bay, the group quickly arrived at the street in the southeast corner of the Linland family's residence, and then found a house that looked a bit old.

The room was not big and looked like an old-fashioned public toilet.

In fact, this was indeed a public toilet in the past.

However, ever since the Linland family laid the sewers and built supporting protection for them, no one has come to this place anymore.

When Carl was renovating Storm Bay, this place was not included in the renovation area because it was too close to the Linland family's residence, so it was left here.

After finding this abandoned building less than two meters high, the group looked left and right, confirmed that there was no one around, and then rushed in.

Because no one had visited the public toilet for a long time, it looked quite clean.

After entering, the members of the Takanaan family put on masks like gas masks. The leading man waved to his companions and then stepped aside.

The halfling female in the team took out a wand and cast a spell directly at one of the pits.

The floor tiles, which originally seemed solid, were slowly arched up by the concrete underneath, and along with them were the smelly sewer pipes.

Immediately afterwards, the halfling cast the shrink spell on himself.

Her already short body suddenly became even smaller. She gestured to her companions, walked quickly to the entrance of the sewer, held her breath and jumped in.

Despite the gas mask, she still made this move subconsciously.

The width of the old sewer is quite narrow, but it is also quite straight.

After falling for a while, the halfling finally entered a more spacious sewer.

On the stained wall, metal tubes engraved with magic patterns are arranged neatly.

If you follow them, you will find that these pipes are connected to the manhole covers of all the sewer entrances around the Linland family.

Once someone enters, these pipes transmit the message back to the hub and trigger the alarm.

The toilet was supposed to be filled in and sealed with the same material, but the adventurers who took on the project cut corners and preserved the toilet and its old sewer.
