After agreeing to go with Carissa, all Rooney's worries disappeared. As for his father... he was too lazy to care about it, and he couldn't care about it.
"Malfo, I won this time, and from then on, I am confident that I will continue to win."
Rooney smiled as a victor, but also relaxed. Since he was sensible, he has been humiliated and ridiculed by the other party, and he doesn't know why the other party would target him so much. His father even verbally oppressed and attacked him as a creditor.
If it weren't for him being a professional, earning money by completing mercenary missions, let alone gambling debts, he wouldn't even have a home.
Malfoy also calmed down: "The future life is still very long. In the future life, who is good and who is bad, I can't tell. Just become a follower, are you so arrogant?"
"Yes, the future is unclear. But I have confidence. You have no idea what kind of person Beta is. My family has been his entourage since three hundred years ago." Rooney patted Marl gently. Husband's shoulder: "Three thousand ancient books are stored in the basement of the storage room. Help me keep them well, and I will come back to pick them up. If you lose one, you will know the consequences yourself."
Malfoy glanced at Beta, full of suspicion. Although Beta was young, Ji Ji was a master-level powerhouse, which made him a little jealous, but there are not many such people in Frans, but he quickly realized that there was a word that aroused his deep doubts .
"Three hundred years ago?"
Looking at Malfoy who was full of doubts, Rooney chuckled and continued, "As for my father, you can do whatever you want, kill him or bury him, it's up to you."
Rooney is really desperate for his father. Although his father once sold the house and their siblings, Rooney paid off almost all of these gambling debts with his own efforts. At that time, he still recognized his father. After all, his father hadn't disclosed the three thousand books in the basement, so he still had a little bit of respect for his father.
But now, with his father drunkenly revealing the biggest family secret, the last sliver of respect Rooney had for him evaporated.
"It's useless for us to keep that alcoholic, I'll give it back to you." Malfoy thought Rooney was ironic.
"Not interested anymore."
Rooney turned around, waved his hand back, walked towards Beta, and then stood behind Beta. He had already assumed the identity of Beta's entourage well.
Carissa, who was still panting, looked at Beta with admiring eyes.
The magician Lakla who coughed blood several times finally stood up. He looked at Beta: "Can you leave a surname, Your Excellency Beta."
He already knew the other party's name from the conversation between Malfoy and Rooney just now, but he still didn't know the last name. He hoped to deduce something useful from the other party's last name.
Beta just smiled, ignored him, turned and left.
Behind him was Lakla's old face full of embarrassment and anger.
...
...
Two hours later, in the City Lord's Mansion in Hector City, Malfoy was sitting in the study, opposite his father, and Rhodes, a trusted staff member of the City Lord.
"You don't have to blame yourself too much, this time the responsibility is not yours." The city lord didn't look at his son, but lowered his head to criticize the government affairs: "You brought back at least three thousand ancient books and completed your task. "
"Father, I really didn't prepare well this time. I didn't even think about inquiring about the information about Beta. I thought that Master Lakla could at least suppress him, or draw with him." Malfoy lowered his head: "It was my fault."
The city lord raised his head, smiled, and said: "It's a good thing that you know how to think about your mistakes, but you can't blame all the mistakes on you. I have sent someone to check the information on that person, and it must be soon. There will be news back."
As soon as the city lord finished speaking, he knocked on the door, and a man who looked like a butler came in and said, "Master, there is a bard who said he knows a big man named Beta, but I don't know if it is the person you think."
"Let him in."
The butler nodded and went out, and after a while, a fine-looking bard came in. After he entered, he saluted everyone obsequiously, and then stood with his head bowed.
"Tell me, if the beta you know is the same person as the beta we want to find, then fifty silver coins will be rewarded to you."
The bard was overjoyed and said, "The Beta I know is a young man with bright golden hair and bright golden pupils, and a powerful magician."
The city lord looked at his son.
And Malfoy nodded, and said: "It should be him, that kind of hair color and eye color are quite rare."
"Keep talking, and I'll give you silver coins when I'm done." The city lord sat up straight unconsciously.
"If it's the same person, then what your Excellencies are looking for should be Beta-Leon, the lord of the Wetlands of Hollevin City and also the Holy City of Woking, the Pope of the God of Wealth Sect."
Malfoy stood up in fright: "The pope of a sect, is he the only one? So young?"
"Just a few months ago, the goddess Woking, whom Pope Beta believed in, performed a miracle in Hollevin, and people all over the country could see him conferring a merchant as a nobleman in the sky. A sensational event."
The city lord nodded calmly: "The pope of a small sect is barely considered a big man. Apart from that, is there any other important information?"
The bard continued: "It is rumored that Pope Beta had an affair with the saint of the Temple of Storms, the little princess Emma of Hollevin, but this should be false news, because the saint can only be a virgin, but their relationship Very close, this is an indisputable fact. Emma was seriously injured once, and she recuperated in the Holy City of Woking."
"In addition, before Pope Beta became the lord of the wetlands, he was nicknamed the Red Priest. I heard that he acted very cruelly. Once he killed so many people that his clothes were dyed red, so he got this nickname."
"He acted very tough. It is said that he once opposed the king of Hollevin, but he is safe and sound so far. It is suspected that he used special means to force the king to make concessions."
"There are many beauties around him. I heard that there is a woman named Shirley who is privately called the most beautiful woman in the world, the woman who is closest to a goddess."
"Other than that, there is no more information about him."
"Okay, you step back. The steward gives this gentleman fifty silver coins." The city lord waved his hand to repel the bard. He looked at his youngest son and said, "If half of the bard's information is That's right, then, what you met was a terrifyingly strong man. You came back alive and brought back three thousand ancient books. This is your victory and your credit. Go back and rest first. , By the way... Those ancient books must be kept well, if one day Rooney really comes back, it will be stronger than us, at least we still have room to turn around."
