Chapter 159 158. Trying to Form a Team to Investigate the Sinking Area
"Ha, boring women always like to meddle in things they shouldn't."
Knowing that it was impossible to have a fierce friendly match with Mo Cheng, Ralph withdrew his hand. He didn't know whether he was complaining about Margaret coming to stop the upcoming battle between him and Mo Cheng, or alluding to what he had discussed in the office before.
"Priest, if you are interested, you can come to the Knights headquarters and have a look. I believe you will like it there. As fellow travelers pursuing power, you and I must be friends."
Ralph could smell a smell from Mo Cheng, a smell of the same kind. Don't care about interpersonal relationships, don't care about the intersection of forces, let alone other people's lives and deaths.
The only thing he cares about is his own strength and proving his strength.
In order to prove his strength, Ralph became the leader of the Knights. He could also see that Mo Cheng was not involved for such unnecessary reasons as the house being affected. The priest in front of him just wanted to find someone strong enough to beat him to death and get pleasure from the battle.
"The headquarters of the Knights is very spacious and sturdy, and there are also very fun games. Believe me, priest, you will like the Knights."
Ralph tried to corner the wall in front of Margaret. This behavior obviously made the head of the law enforcement team dislike it very much. The wind blade ripped the air and slashed at Ralph, but before it hit, Ralph The sudden burst of lightning around my husband had already offset the wind blade.
"Ralph, Priest Mo Cheng is the medical aid of the law enforcement team. Please regulate your words and actions."
"Hahaha, you stingy woman, I didn't say anything when you pulled someone out of the Knights before."
Ralph used the power of the wind blade to jump out of the headquarters of the law enforcement group.
"Mo Cheng, what do you want to see me for today?"
Margaret stepped aside and walked into the office, motioning to come in to talk. She knew Mo Cheng's character well. If he hadn't encountered something, he wouldn't have come to her.
"Today I took Lilia to watch the adventurers, and encountered something in the sewers."
Mo Cheng described in detail the people and things he met in the sewer, and also explained in detail the dried corpses and conjectures.
"Is someone committing brutal massacres in the sewers?" Margaret frowned and opened the records on her desk, "But the law enforcement team has not received any reports of disappearances or deaths recently. It seems that the people who died in the sewers should..."
There are only a few areas that the law enforcement group can effectively control, including wealthy areas, magic areas, and civilian areas. The law enforcement group did not receive a report, so the most likely possibility is that those who died came from areas not controlled by the law enforcement group, such as the noble area, the central area, and the sinking area.
There seems to be an answer to where those people came from.
Margaret tapped her fingers lightly on the desk, "Mo Cheng, I need your help. I want you to come with me to explore the sinking area."
After being stunned, Mo Cheng didn't expect Margaret to be so reckless. He didn't even have the idea to investigate the sinking area at this time. He just supported Goulard to investigate for him in a roundabout way.
Because the sinking area involves the black industry of legal practitioners, although Mo Cheng did not defeat any legal practitioners during the encounter. But for the market of our own important human experiment materials, we know with our toes that there will definitely be many traps for investigators.
Those who are well-prepared have always had something to do with [trouble].
"I think you should think about it carefully before making a decision."
The Sinking Area is the shadow and abscess of Fairhaven, and it is also the private interests of many nobles. Those who go to investigate will undoubtedly put themselves on the opposite side of gangsters, nobles, and mages.
Mo Cheng is naturally not afraid. Rather, because the system's means of gaining experience are extremely rare, he has great self-control to suppress his desire to kill every day. Once someone really joins forces to target him, it will be more like releasing his own heavy and useless moral shackles.
But Margaret is different. She is the legitimate daughter of Lauren Frost, the great nobleman of Aundair.
"I have thought about it in detail. It is necessary to go to the sinking area to investigate." Margaret looked serious and had no intention of joking at all. "Mo Cheng, can I trust you?"
Before Mo Cheng could answer, Margaret laughed, "Ha, what am I talking about? You are much more trustworthy than Ralph."
Originally he wanted to say no, but when he heard that it was Ralph who was comparing himself, Mo Cheng sat up slightly and said, "Let's talk about your problem first."
"We have received intelligence on the prison escapees before, and they are hiding in the sinking area at this time. It is worth mentioning that many nobles have recently tried to impeach the work of the law enforcement group, and are persuading the Queen to limit or withdraw the law enforcement power of the law enforcement group. "
"We have bitten the tail of that group of fugitives! As long as we can catch those fugitives, we will know who is trying to endanger the safety of Fairhaven."
Listening to Margaret's words, and in connection with the conversation in the office that he heard before, Mo Cheng considered his words, "So, just now Captain Ralph..."
"Ah, did you hear what I just said? It's just what you thought, someone is about to be caught, and they plan to ask Ralph to come forward."
Margaret's hand gently touched the [Wind of Dawn] on the side, her eyes were full of sharp edges, "If it were before, I might have been blocked, but now there is [Wind of Dawn], and Ralph's body can't stop it." Hold on to my sword."
"You completed [Wind of Dawn] just so that Captain Ralph could not stop you?"
"exactly."
Mo Cheng pressed the bridge of his nose and called out in his heart, "Good guy." Since the escapee appeared in the prison, Margaret has been trying to deal with the whole thing.
Even possible obstacles were anticipated and weapons were prepared in advance.
"I would like to ask, what will you do if you find those fugitives?"
Mo Cheng was a little worried about her fighting in the sinking area, but nothing else. The main reason was that he would probably lose a stable source of experience.
In a sense, killing all the gangsters, nobles, and mages who have property in the sinking area is a matter of moral character.
"Don't worry, I won't start a war there. As long as we find clues, things will be much easier to handle after that,"
"I remember that the Lauren Frost family is also a noble..."
"Mo Cheng, you have no dealings with the nobles, so you probably don't know." Margaret replied in a very indifferent manner, "Lauren Frost, the wild wolf in the north, the queen's hound, probably among the nobles That’s what it’s called.”
In other words, does this mean that the battle between the queen and the nobles has now begun to escalate?
Margaret's actions are definitely not out of boredom. Combined with Ralph's previous visit, the meaning is very intriguing.
