Before it was dark, the Viper Tavern was full of people. Marginal businessmen, adventurers, non-believers, and people from all religions and religions gathered here to eat, drink, and enjoy themselves, and the smell of tobacco and alcohol filled this not so well-ventilated place.
On one side of this place are dancers writhing their sexy bodies, and on the other side are big men fighting, full of male hormones, making people shout, applaud, and scream intertwined.
Although the scene is noisy and decadent, there is order in the decadence.
The old man in gray robe walked into the tavern. He was tall, very thin, with a goatee, and his clothes were plain but very neat and clean. He looked like a sophisticated old scholar, wearing a big hat that covered most of his face.
"Sir, your reservation is ready."
A young waiter came over. He looked very young. His long hair was tied into a simple ponytail at the back of his head, and his eyes were very agile, giving him a lively and clever feeling.
The goatee old man nodded slightly, his eyes kept wandering and observing his surroundings, and finally his eyes stopped slightly on Viper who was mixing drinks at the bar. Viper just raised his head to look at him. any trace.
The waiter brought the old man with the goatee to the single room by the window, and he brought an exquisite silver jug of wine and several dishes of appetizers. These foods are high-quality products in Shazhou Camp, but the old man with the goatee seems to be lacking in interest.
"Small ones don't disturb adults at dinner time."
The goatee old man put the hat on his head on the table, and his gray hair was hanging down. He didn't look too old, but his face was full of wrinkles carved by the blade of time. The feeling of suffering. There was a stinging emotion in his gaze, a restless mixture of anger, pain, anticipation, and a touch of morbid madness.
This kind of person feels very bad. His surface is calm and peaceful like a lake, but he is actually covering up the volcano at the bottom of the lake. No one knows when this volcano will erupt.
About an hour or so later, a tall, hook-nosed, bald man walked in.
He patrolled past like an eagle with extremely sharp eyes, and finally handed over a note with the number of the private room to the tavern, and the young waiter immediately led the middle-aged man to the private room without saying a word.
When the bald man with hooked nose walks, he seems to be very slow but actually very fast. If you observe more carefully, you will find that his walking steps are meticulous and exquisite. He didn't touch anyone's clothes, just like a ghost silently and quickly drifting past, leaving no trace.
A real master!
The curly-haired boy pushed open the door.
A bald man with a hooked nose appeared in front of the old man with a goatee. Seeing this man, the old man with a goatee showed excitement in his eyes. He quickly stood up and said respectfully, "Lord Vulture!"
The man nicknamed Vulture looked at the goatee old man and said, "Lao Luo, I haven't seen you for a few years. You look old too fast."
"People will grow old eventually. Aging is not terrible. The most fearful thing is to be old and do nothing." The goatee old man sighed bitterly. He waved to the boy beside him, "Go down."
The waiter looked at the bald middle-aged man with a hooked nose, then at the old man with a goatee, bowed respectfully, and when he exited, he closed the door with both hands.
The vulture said to the old man with the goatee: "Don't insist on it anymore, your health is not good, just go back with me this time, you have contributed enough to the organization for more than 20 years, there is no need to spend your remaining energy and Time is here, and you should have a life of your own."
"Life? My life has already been ruined." The goatee old man shook his head and said, "The biggest wish in this life is to look forward to the day when Sky Cloud City is destroyed and collapsed. If I can really see this scene, what will I pay? I'm willing to pay the price, so what's the point of dormant for decades?"
The vulture made a silencing gesture.
He stood up abruptly and opened the door, looked around, but found no suspicious targets. Seeing the waiter with a ponytail walking away, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't worry, Mr. Vulture, no one will eavesdrop." The old man with the goatee stood up, and it was better to be cautious no matter what: "This tavern owner is a person with a lot of background. Without his help, I would You can’t even get this important information.”
"You mean this tavern owner? Is he trustworthy!"
"It's hard to say, but one thing is for sure, his position is definitely not on the side of Tianyun City, otherwise, based on what he has done and those collections, I am afraid that it is enough for him to die ten times or eight times, let alone help me obtain such important things. information."
"I trust your judgment." Vulture nodded to the old man: "Is the information on you now?"
The old man slowly took out a black-covered book from his pocket and handed it to Vulture: "It's all in here. This is the main defense map of Tianyun City and the positions above the team leader of the city defense regiment. There are more than 1,500 items in total. A list of mid- and low-ranking officers and their backgrounds."
"It's rare, it's so rare!" Vulture held the black book over like a treasure, and he quickly flipped through the contents: "With this information, we can formulate a plan to infiltrate or even invade Tianyun City, Lao Luo, you It’s really a great achievement!”
The old man with a goatee said sadly: "It took us several years to collect this information, and we lost a total of more than 30 companions. They are the real contributors to this foundation. I only hope that one day, these information will be useful and let Tianyun This damned place in the city was completely razed to the ground!"
Vulture flipped through it a few times. Although he just read it briefly, judging from the content, he was sure that the information was extremely authentic and accurate. It must have taken a lot of hard work and experience for this old man to complete such information collection, and a lot of sacrifices were inevitable in the whole process, which is really not easy.
"Don't be stubborn, come back with me!"
"Everyone has their own battlefield. As long as this war is not over, I will not retreat from the front line. As long as I am still needed here, I will not be a deserter. You should understand me." The goatee old man did not A little heartbroken, "But since I'm here this time, I'd like to recommend a few young people to you. These people are all new talents I discovered during these years of dormancy. As long as they are sent to the headquarters to train them well, they will definitely become our sharp weapons in the future." .”
Vulture sighed.
He also knew the old man's temper.
Although the old man was unwilling to go back, but he recommended a few talents, Vulture absolutely believed in their character, since they were recommended by him, they must be very reliable.
"It's almost time." The old man took out a pocket watch and looked at it: "Come with me."
At this time, the waiter with long hair tied into a ponytail was wandering in the tavern bored, and saw the old man with the goatee and the man with the hooked nose quickly leaving the tavern. He was slightly taken aback, put down the thing, and quickly chased after him with light feet.
The old man with the goatee had already calculated the time.
Now is the time when the Shazhou Camp has the most crowds. After leaving the tavern, the two of them walked into the crowded crowd, and disappeared without a trace in the crowd almost instantly. When the young man chased him, several intersections of different sizes appeared in front of him, and he didn't know which direction the other party was going from.
In a few minutes.
In an abandoned warehouse.
Dust was floating in the air, and there was a musty smell.
Canzhu struggles in the wind to resist the darkness with a faint light, just like the old man in front of him, he wants to send a little more light and heat to the world before he runs out of oil and the lamp dies.
"These are the young people I recommend."
There were six people standing in front of the goatee old man, the youngest looked to be in his twenties, and the oldest in his early forties.
"They are all the elite talents that I have been digging out one after another after I have been lurking in this fringe area for decades and engaged in secret intelligence activities. Everyone has experienced life and death with me, and each has unique skills. Intelligence personnel, or front-line fighters, are all partners who can be entrusted with important tasks! I can guarantee this with my life!"
Vulture nodded: "Since you personally recommended it, I will definitely recommend it to the leader of Wolf Sword."
"Wait! We're leaving, what do you do?" A middle-aged man with a black sword on his back came out, "I'm following you, I won't leave even if you leave!"
"I'm not leaving either!"
"Me too!"
The vulture was slightly moved when he saw this. These are the peripheral members of the Dark Core Society. Every peripheral member dreams of entering the real headquarters, especially those who secretly carry out intelligence missions in the fringes. Who wants to live like a mouse.
Now these people are willing to follow this old man willing to give up the opportunity.
"People will die one day, but faith will not be annihilated." The old man with a goatee showed a gratified smile. He lifted up the almost burnt out candle, and lit a few new candles, making the dark abandoned place a Brighter, "As long as the fire of faith continues to spread, it will eventually form a prairie fire. Why should we die? Don't forget our plan!"
The six people looked at each other in blank dismay.
Vulture asked in surprise, "Do you have other plans?"
The goatee old man nodded: "The defense plan of Tianyun City shows that there is an inconspicuous loophole in the defensive enchantment. Give me a little time. If the loophole is confirmed to exist, as long as the loophole is used to release poisonous gas weapons, tens of thousands of people in Tianyun City can be wiped out in one fell swoop." People, thus inflicting unprecedented heavy damage on Sky Cloud City."
When it comes to here.
The goatee old man's expression became a little eerie.
Vulture never thought that hatred could drive people to such a point. The old man's only belief in life was probably to destroy the entire Tianyun City. But this plan is very interesting, just when Vulture was about to ask in detail.
Dang Dang Dang Dang Dang!
A small bell shook gently.
Although the voice was very crisp, it pierced everyone's eardrums like a poisonous needle.
"Not good!" A person at the door changed his face and stood up: "There is a sneaky figure approaching, I suspect that we have been exposed."
Without saying a word, a big black man lifted a huge firearm from his back and folded it, took out two bullets twice as thick as his thumb from his chest, and stuffed them into the gun. With a click, the bullets were loaded, and he rushed forward in two steps. Pick up the gun and shoot at the wooden door.
It was like a shock was released.
The wooden door of the small warehouse was directly smashed.
A figure outside was hit on the spot, screaming and being beaten upside down, and fell heavily to the ground. A single shot with such a powerful force would most likely die even through the thick wooden door.
"Oops!" The face of the goatee old man changed drastically: "Vulture, you go first!"
"That you… "
"Now is not the time to think about this!" The goatee old man shook his head and said, "You should be aware of the value of this information, and you must send it to the leader of Wolf Sword no matter what, otherwise all our previous efforts will be in vain. It’s useless! Don’t say anything, just go!”
These people didn't have time to react, they could only hear the screams of a violent storm, and from the windows and wooden walls in all directions, there were continuous attacks on the gods, and sharp arrows sprinkled in, covering these people in an instant.
"Hide first!"
The vulture kicked over a table in front of it, and seven or eight thin arrows were nailed into the wooden table in the blink of an eye. Others ran for cover. A young man couldn't dodge being shot in the eye, and immediately fell to the ground with a howl.
