Edge of the Apocalypse

Chapter 340 Windfall

With a bang, some fine objects fell onto the table. Lucy, who was working, looked up and saw that they were all small personal items, such as pocket watches, knives, some delicate tools and a money bag.

Belmode shook his head and said, "I thought that guy would have something valuable on him, but he didn't have anything."

These things were looted from Ollie, of course, before handing over the thief to Edward. Belmode selectively left some things behind, such as a ring with the Storm City logo, which was stored in the hidden pocket of Ollie's jacket. It looks expensive, but that thing can prove Ollie's identity, Belmode can only reluctantly keep it.

As for the rest, they naturally went into his pockets.

He opened the purse, and inside was a small pile of silver coins. It seems that the quality is not bad, and the weight is full. Belmode picked up one of them and threw it upwards: "Sure enough, the money is really good, no matter which planet it is on."

Seeing the silver coin throwing a beautiful silver curve in the space, Belmode felt very comfortable. Lucy smiled and shook her head, and was about to continue the cracking work at hand, when suddenly the silver bracelet in her hand rose and fell violently, Blade Runner flashed a silver trajectory, and turned into a silver spider in mid-air, pounced on the silver coin . Gathering its limbs, it hugged the silver coin tightly and dropped it.

Belmode stared dumbfounded at the sudden appearance of the silver spider, and then reacted, shouting: "What is this, hey, return my silver coin."

He stretched out his hand to grab the silver spider, and one of the limbs of the silver spider struck like lightning. The limbs, which were as small as toothpicks, made a sharp whistling wind. Belmode gave a strange cry, the short blade slipped out of the sleeve, struck the jointed limb, and made a ding sound. Unexpectedly, the silver spider was not as big as a palm, but the force from the dagger was not small. Belmode said "Hey" and slid back.

Blade Runner also ignored him, it opened its mouthpiece, tore off the silver coin at a very fast speed, and ate it again. Belmod opened his mouth into an o shape, pointed at the silver spider and shouted, "You actually ate the silver coin, you monster, give it back to me."

Unexpectedly, the silver spider was not satisfied after eating one silver coin. With twitching limbs, it quickly plundered towards the money bag. Belmode actually revealed the source of light, and the dagger trembled lightly, showing that he was desperately fighting for his property and the silver spider.

"Mr. Belmode!" Lucy quickly stopped him: "Please don't make a move, I will fully compensate you for your loss."

Belmode was taken aback, and he withdrew his energy and said with a dry smile: "That's not necessary, it's just a bag of silver coins, not a loss. But Miss Lucy, your pet's ration is too high-end."

Lucy laughed and said, "It's called No. 7, and it's an artificial intelligence machine, not a pet."

There is no barrier from Belmode,

No. 7 had already eaten the whole bag of silver coins in the blink of an eye. Its body has obviously grown a little, and there are many flickering lines on its surface. After a while, Number Seven spit out iron filings one after another. Seeing a bag of silver coins turned into iron filings, Belmode could only sigh dryly.

"Number Seven, what are you doing?" Lucy asked, beckoning.

The silver spider crawled back, and its outline melted halfway, turning into a stream of silver liquid that bounced into the air, and then condensed into the appearance of a bracelet on Lucy's wrist.

"It's Themes silver, master. I detected the composition of Themes silver on those silver coins, so I swallowed it. If I can get more of these silver coins, it will help me replenish my body."

Lucy asked in surprise, "Themes Silver?"

She looked at Belmode: "Where do these silver coins come from?"

"It was picked up from a bad luck ghost." Belmode told the truth: "That guy is from Storm City, and the silver coin has the logo of Storm City on it. It should be their own silver coin. Miss Lucy, what is Themes Silver?" ?”

"It's a rare metal, and its function should not just be used to mint coins." Lucy's eyes seemed to be burning with emerald green flames, and the girl suddenly exuded a high aura: "It's such a waste , to use Themes silver to mint coins, which is more precious than platinum!"

"However, this is really an unexpected harvest!"

Amid a series of excited laughter from the girl, Belmode fled out of the hall in some embarrassment.

A loud laugh rushed into Old Rock's ears, which made his hands tremble, and he almost dropped the wine glass in his hand to the ground. He looked at the bar with some concern. The bar was full of people. After some adventurers left the city of Sur in the morning, the rest spontaneously came to the bar to gather. They sat in twos and threes in various corners of the bar, and occasionally let out a loud laugh or two.

Old Rock also heard about the corpse of the adventurer in front of the Santo's Mansion. It is said that the daring guy wanted to sneak into the Santo's Mansion to steal something, but was killed by the guards. Now, the owner of the corpse has given the name of the crowned spy, and the specific situation will be announced later.

Faced with the high-profile and tough approach of the young city lord, most adventurers chose to avoid it. Although there are many bounties, life flowers are needed, and more people read that there seems to be some other unusual taste in the reward task. And this smell is slowly fermenting with Edward's response. Almost everyone who is a little more sensitive has already smelled a bloody smell permeating between the two cities.

Most people guessed that Maud's reward was not simple, but the amount of Maud's bounty was as much as 100,000, but it was enough to drive real desperadoes. They could even ignore Maud's real intentions, anyway, as long as they brought back what Maud designated, but whatever the Baron of Storm City was thinking, he had to pay the bounty truthfully. Otherwise, he will face the wrath of the adventurers.

However, there is another reason for the people in the bar to stay, and that is that Sur City does not have any commendable strongmen, or an army that is as shocking as Storm City. The lack of strong men and armies makes the adventurers think that once things cannot be done, no one can stop them from leaving.

As for the corpse that is still hanging in the small square, that unlucky guy is not well-known, so it can be seen that his own strength is not very good.

As Ollie's temporary companion, Kira is in a strange mood. She didn't feel sorry for the guy, nor did Ollie's death take a toll on her team. She still stayed, of course not to avenge Ollie, but just like others, there is still a fluke mentality in offering a reward to Maude.

Another person entered the door.

Kira's eyes lit up, it was Belmode.

Because the silver coins were eaten by No. 7, Belmode was in a low mood. Originally, he only planned to go to the bar for a stroll, but he never thought that he would receive many unclear looks as soon as he entered the door. Belmode was in a bad mood, secretly channeling the source power, a pair of eyes lit up immediately, and returned the past with an incomparably sharp gaze. So those who met his gaze couldn't help but lower their heads, unable to resist Belmode's murderous gaze, and at the same time secretly wondering where this man came from.

In many sights, Belmode saw Qila. The latter raised his arms to signal, he closed his eyes, shrugged and walked over.

Kira kicked a man who was laying cards on a table away to make room for a chair. The man scolded a few times, but walked away knowingly. Belmode's show just now was enough to win the chair.

"You were fierce just now." Qila poured a glass of wine for Belmode.

Belmode gulped it down and said, "That's to avoid unnecessary trouble, hey, I thought you guys had left long ago."

"Since you, a lone ranger, still dare to stay, why do we have to leave in a hurry. You know, we have a large number of people." Qila sat next to him and said, "What do you think about that matter?"

Belmode said with a serious face: "I think it's more appropriate to break up now."

Kira frowned, trying to say something. Belmode put his hand over her mouth and said, "Trust me, Kira. You have been used. My suggestion is to leave here immediately and don't step on this muddy water again."

Footsteps sounded at this time, and Old Rock looked up, and the captain of the city defense team, Mato, got in first, followed by soldiers holding fire/guns. There were about a dozen of them in total, and then another group of soldiers rushed in. These warriors wear strange armor, which is very thin, and the material is not like common steel. The armor was covered with patterns, coupled with the unexpected roughness of the firearms held by these soldiers, it made Old Rock's heart thump and beat non-stop.

Finally, a tall man dragged a dark brown warhammer into the bar. The air in the bar suddenly became very dry, making one feel like being in a desert.

Matto glanced around the bar, and after pausing on Belmode for a while, he cleared his throat and said, "On behalf of Sir Edward, the lord of the city, I would like to extend a sincere invitation to all of you. Sir Edward is planning to meet with Everyone, I will meet you at the Sabis Temple. Time is running out, so please come with me."

Matolian said twice, but no one was willing to stand up. A burly man who was obviously drunk clapped his hands and said, "That sounds good, how do we know if this is a trap."

He immediately got the support of his companions, and someone patted the table and said: "Your city chief sees us, let him come to the bar, we won't go to the God of War Temple."

Mato said coldly: "Listen well, I don't want to use strong methods. But if you don't cooperate, I think a little force may be used."

As soon as the voice fell, someone shouted: "Everyone, don't be fooled, they just want to find a chance to catch us all."

Under this person's instigation, the adventurers became emotional and stepped forward to confront the city defense team. Qila also wanted to join them, and didn't want Belmode to hold her hand as soon as she stood up. Belmode looked at her, smiled and said, "For your own good, sit down."
