Kieran's words silenced the crowd.
No one would deny it, and no one would refute it.
Because it was the truth!
Broker!
A disgusting bastard!
However, no one would deny how powerful he was. Whether it was his mind or his influence, Broker had once suppressed the lone wolves.
Think back to the secret bazaar back then, how many people complained about it.
But in the end?
Once it was opened, it would be filled with people.
Every single one of them had been through that period of time.
Until now?
They would never forget it.
After all, Broker had gone into hiding, not dead.
"What is that bastard trying to do?"
Rhino asked in a muffled voice.
Lemour the Alchemist shook her head, expressing that she couldn't figure it out.
Blacksmith, Hanses, and Coll shared the same thought.
Raven the Loner and Ramont, one of them hugged his cat and kept quiet out of habit, while the other placed his attention on the noisy auction further away.
Both of them were undoubtedly the smartest among them. They knew there would be others who would think about such a difficult problem. They would just execute it when the time came, why waste their energy now?
As for the newcomers, Blair and Garwen?
The two of them didn't have much contact with Broker, so they couldn't understand the pressure the others felt when they faced him, but they had their own way of dealing with it.
"Do you need us to investigate where the rumors came from?"
Blair asked Kieran.
"If it's possible."
Kieran answered.
"Leave it to us."
Blair and Garwen said with a smile.
Moreover, the two of them almost immediately took action.
In the big city, it was very convenient to send private messages.
Kieran didn't give Rhino a precise answer either. He picked up his glass and took a sip of the sour yet sobering lemonade before he turned his attention to the auction.
Although Kieran had some guesses in his heart.
But …
Kieran wouldn't say baseless guesses.
While the two newcomers were busy, the others were slowly attracted by the auction hosted by Lawless. After all, anything that caught Barkel's eyes would not be bad.
"Our auction will still focus on Points and Skill Points!
"Of course!"
"Bartering is also possible, especially if it's some strange items or items that can repair items. I guarantee 2567 will give you a good price!"
Lawless said bluntly.
Kieran didn't mind such a method.
It wasn't a secret that he needed to repair items. Many people knew about it.
As for strange and bizarre items?
It was purely a matter of luck.
What if he really received something good?
Even though Kieran was very rational, there were times when he would have some fantasies.
Or rather, everyone was like that.
In the face of the impossible, they would harbor fantasies.
The only difference was that Kieran knew that it was a matter of luck if he obtained it, and fate if he lost it. However, some people were different.
They were always hoping for a fluke when faced with the truth.
In the pitch-black room, some people gathered again.
Although Saikory, the guild leader of Iron Chariot, was missing, the atmosphere in the room did not change much. Everyone was still sitting in their respective seats.
Of course, Saikory's chair was removed.
"We need an explanation."
As the leader of the alliance, the slow voice was the first to speak.
"You guys want to get rid of Saikory.
I did it! "
Said the person who almost merged with the shadows.
"Hmph!
We hope that you will do it, not that 2567. "
The person sitting opposite the leader said in a heavy tone with heavy dissatisfaction.
"That's right!
Besides, if you guys do this, there's a high chance that we will be exposed. "
The person in the corner sounded calm, but the rage in his eyes was obvious.
"Are you blaming me now?"
The person in the shadow laughed coldly.
"No!
It's not blaming!
It's just an inquiry! "
The leader's voice was still leisurely, without any dissatisfaction or anger. It was as if he was having afternoon tea with a friend.
The leader paused for a while before continuing.
"But the two of them are a little impatient.
That's why their tone is a little harsh.
I hope you don't mind. Of course, we will give you the rewards for this mission, including the losses you suffered. We will also compensate you accordingly. After all, rank I and II are not bad, but … what about rank III? "
The leader slightly adjusted his sitting posture.
He looked straight at the person in the shadow.
"I'll deal with it."
The person in the shadow then stood up and left the room.
The other three looked at the door quietly. After a while, the person in the corner asked.
"Are you really going to give him the rest of the rewards?"
"Here.
"This is a fair trade."
Besides, compared to what we got, what is the rest of the rewards? "
The leader said in an affirmative tone.
"Saikory is really useless!
"I thought he would be able to hold on for a while longer. I didn't expect him to only hold on for the shortest amount of time!"
"Heh, what a piece of trash!"
The person sitting opposite the leader said in disdain and frustration.
"It's not Saikory who is useless.
"But he is facing 2567!"
"The enemy's strength has long surpassed our imagination."
Have you heard about the latest news about this person? "
The leader asked after glancing over the two collaborators.
"Barkel the Robber?"
The person in the corner asked in a testing manner.
"Yes.
It's Barkel.
What do you two have to say? "
The leader asked the two collaborators.
"I suggest that we postpone the plan.
"2567's power isn't something our original plan could handle anymore.
The collaborator in the corner said right away.
"That's right.
"However, we should wait a little longer."
After all, we just paid quite a sizable reward, how can we not see the results? "
The collaborator opposite the leader didn't object, but he suggested something else.
The other two didn't object to the suggestion either.
One thing worth noting was that they all shared the same thought.
Since they paid the price, they should get something in return. What's wrong with that?
…
"Wrong!
Of course not!
I don't think we should be in the big city right now! "
"The room we were in before is good enough."
"It's safe there!"
"I think we should go back!"
Rorl voiced his opinion loudly to the man beside him, who looked like a player, as they walked on the street.
However, such a suggestion was obviously ignored.
"Shut up."
Before Rorl could open his mouth again, Bloody Mary grunted in annoyance.
If it had a choice, why didn't it know the room before was safe? But what else could it do?
Bloody Mary couldn't help but roar in its heart when it thought about the new mission assigned to it by its contractor.
