The young man nodded tremblingly and glanced at his companion struggling in pain on the ground: "Please... follow me."
Chris frowned slightly, but said nothing and followed Karl.
Led by the young man, they walked along the way and entered a slum area with narrow streets and dilapidated houses that were crumbling.
After turning around several times, we finally stopped in front of a simple stone house.
The young man pointed at the worn wooden door and whispered, "Our boss is inside."
He stretched out his hand and was about to knock on the door.
Karl walked forward, raised his foot suddenly and kicked the wooden door. With a loud "bang", the wooden door shattered in an instant, and wood chips flew everywhere.
There were bursts of exclamations coming from the room, and more than a dozen figures ran out of the room in panic.
They were armed with various weapons: "Who is causing trouble?"
The middle-aged man in the lead frowned, but when he saw Chris dressed as a nun, his eyes obviously relaxed.
Nuns are obviously the easiest kind to deal with.
He turned to Karl: “Two adults, what’s the matter with coming to me?”
He subconsciously thought that his men had taken things from the two uninvited guests, and now they had come to his door.
He held the long sword at his waist, reminding the two that he was also a warrior and was not to be trifled with. He also said, "I am also a believer in God. If there is anything I can do to help you, please tell me."
"Let me do it." Chris walked up. She also knew that these guys were difficult to deal with.
"It doesn't matter. I'm the best at persuading people." Carl said with a smile.
The middle-aged man also laughed. Did this little kid really think he would help them?
The people around him had subtle expressions. This noble child had a kind of clear stupidity.
The next second, the middle-aged man in front of everyone suddenly disappeared, followed by a loud "bang!"
Karl’s hands tightly grasped the back of the middle-aged man’s head. His face was deeply sunken into the wall, and there was even an obvious crack around it.
Blood immediately flowed down the wall, it was obvious that he was deader than dead.
This scene unfolded so quickly that everyone was confused. For a moment, the field was dead silent.
Karl took his hand back: “It seems that he can’t listen to my reasoning.”
Of course, he was not that strong, he just used the time stop and then dragged him to the wall, and when the time stop was released, he smashed his head against the wall with all his strength.
This middle-aged man is a warrior of about level 4. If we don't deal with him quickly, it will be quite troublesome.
Karl glanced at the crowd, and everyone took a step back. Only one adult woman stood there without moving: “What’s your name?”
"My name is Linda." Linda's voice was a little nervous, but still calm.
"Very good, you will be the underground emperor of San Marino City in the future." Carl glanced at everyone: "Who objects?"
Everyone looked at each other, then glanced at the dead middle-aged man lying on the ground, then lowered their heads and chose to remain silent.
Seeing this, Karl was too lazy to even make superficial promises and draw cakes, and directly said to Linda: “Come here.”
Linda walked up to him cautiously, not daring to raise her head.
"Go do two things," Karl ordered. "First, find out the gossip about the nobles in the city. Second, find out if there are any strangers who have sneaked into the slums recently."
Linda nodded timidly and said, "Okay."
After Karl finished speaking, he casually took out a gem from his pocket. There were too many of these things in his castle and threw them to Linda: "This is your reward."
Linda gripped the gem tightly, feeling the weight, and was stunned.
While others watched this scene with their mouths open.
Carl told Linda the address of the pub and asked her to report to the pub after completing the investigation.
Chris stood aside and witnessed the whole process with a complicated expression.
She didn't say a word all the way back to the hotel.
Until I got back to the room.
"Is it really possible to find them? Those gems..." Chris couldn't help but ask, with a complicated look on her face.
In her opinion, a greedy dragon like Carl should act in a domineering and tyrannical manner.
Just now, Karl actually took out gems to reward Linda.
In order to fulfill his promise to help her, Carl was able to resist his instinct and took out the gem in his hand, which made her feel complicated.
"Do you like gems?" Carl took out a few dazzling gems from his pocket and said, "If you want, I can give them to you."
He said, lifting up Sister Chris’s long skirt and squeezing in the back.
"Asshole?!" Chris screamed in pain. There was still some liquid inside that Carl had put in during the day but didn't remember to wipe it off, so it did serve as some lubrication.
Plus, he's been messing with me a lot lately.
The pain is actually acceptable.
Chris wanted to resist, but when she thought about how Carl was willing to take out the gem to help her, she gritted her teeth and said nothing.
Karl stuffed two into her and found that she didn't resist.
Feeling strange, looking at her snow-white and round breasts, she took out the dragon weapon.
Because it is stuffed with gems, it has a unique charm.
Chris turned pale with pain, but this time, she just gritted her teeth and didn't resist.
In the evening, Carl received information from Linda.
The efficiency was faster than he expected.
"Count Heyman's wife organizes a silver party every month?" When Carl received this information, his first reaction was that this was false information.
But Linda said he could go.
“?” Carl.
Chapter 41: Pre-examination
"They will look for handsome boys between the ages of 10 and 12 in the slums." Linda had an instinctive fear of Carl, her new boss who was both generous and cruel.
She lowered her head and didn’t dare to look Karl in the eye, her voice was very low: “Our boss has been helping them find boys. I don’t know the details, I just heard some by chance.”
"Looking for a handsome boy? Join the silver party they hold." Carl frowned.
These noble ladies look for little boys from the slums.
He couldn't even imagine how outrageous the game would be.
But if you think about it carefully, it is indeed something that only noble ladies can do.
He controls Linda in order to monitor the slums. If Aisha wants to cause trouble, the slums will definitely be the first choice.
I didn't expect that she would actually be able to access information related to the nobility.
After a brief moment of contemplation, Karl looked at Linda and said, “Take me in.”
Linda was stunned. After a brief moment of shock, she suddenly realized that this new boss was decisive and ruthless, but his appearance was as immature as a 13-year-old child.
And in terms of appearance, he undoubtedly meets the standard of "handsome boy" that aristocratic ladies are looking for.
Chris was also shocked by his plan: "Earl Heiman knows you, your identity cannot be hidden."
Carl spread his hands: "Oh, I didn't think of hiding it. The saint's apprentices were caught and taken to the silver party. Aren't they more excited?"
"?" Chris was stunned, but couldn't refute.
"In order to find the symbiote, I can't retreat even if it's a dangerous place." Carl said firmly: "And there is no place more efficient than the Ginpa to find the symbiote."
The corners of Chris' mouth twitched. She knew Carl's size best.
She stared at Carl's cheek. In fact, putting aside her prejudice, this dragon was indeed very beautiful, as delicate as a piece of jade.
"Are you really going to look for the symbiote?" Chris asked doubtfully.
"Of course." Carl said sincerely, "For the sake of the lives of San Marino City, it doesn't matter if we sacrifice a little."
Chris thought about it carefully. Although it was outrageous, if Carl could really attend that kind of party, then it would be easy to find out whether there were symbiotes among the nobles.
This is indeed the most efficient way.
"Okay, Labelle and I will support them from the outside." Chris nodded after a brief hesitation: "If we encounter a symbiote, we will rush into the venue after hearing the sound of fighting."
After Chris finished speaking, she was stunned again.
She suddenly realized that with Karl’s powerful strength, he didn’t need their help at all.
Chris could only smile bitterly. The appearance of this evil dragon was so deceptive that it made her subconsciously say such caring words.
Thinking of this, she felt a pain in her back.
Last night, Carl first stuffed the gem in her mouth and then pushed it out, which really made her suffer a lot. She finally got the gem out with great difficulty.
Karl didn’t notice the subtle changes in Chris’s expression.
He turned to Linda and said, "Take me there."
"Okay, boss." Linda responded readily without any questions or hesitation.
In her opinion, a strong man like Karl naturally has his reasons for doing things, which she cannot understand.
Just like the strange title of boss, for her, obedience is the best choice.
Carl discussed some details with Chris and followed Linda.
Linda is a level 2 thief, wearing close fitting leather armor, with her long hair tied into a ponytail. Her appearance is not stunning, and she is a very ordinary girl next door.
She led the way, into the slums.
The buildings here are out of tune with the bustling outside world. They are so intricate and complex that they have become a natural maze.
Narrow streets, dilapidated houses, and an indescribable stench in the air.
Although it is surrounded by the city walls, it is isolated from the outside world and has become another world. The guards in the city will not set foot in this area.
Carl looked around and noticed that there were many mixed-race people living here, with numbness etched on their faces.
It is difficult for these mixed-race people to inherit racial talents. They are naturally at the bottom of the contempt chain and most of them are concentrated in slums.
With this kind of living condition, it is hard to imagine what one would do once he gets the power.
It is not surprising that the terrible incident in Wind Chime City caused a large number of deaths.
"It's here." Linda stopped and pointed to a dilapidated house in front.
Carl followed Linda, thinking he would experience a thrilling secret meeting.
Unexpectedly, Linda walked to a shabby wooden door without hesitation, gently pushed the door open, and had a brief conversation with the person inside.
Then she turned back and motioned to Carl to follow her in.
There was no intention to keep it secret throughout the process.
Even not far away, there were ordinary people walking by with numb expressions, ignoring this side.
Carl pretended to look fearful and uneasy and walked into the door cautiously.
The room was simply furnished and the owner was poor.
An old mixed-race woman was sitting on a chair, her forehead full of wrinkles. When she saw Karl, she narrowed her eyes slightly and looked him up and down.
In another corner of the house, two little boys, about 12 or 3 years old, were squatting.
They were also mixed-race, with haggard faces and thin bodies, obviously suffering from long-term malnutrition.
Judging from his appearance, he is a half-elf, with fairly regular facial features.
After the old woman looked at Karl, she frowned and said, “Linda, where did you kidnap this noble child from? I don’t want to get into trouble.”
Carl's appearance and temperament are completely different from those of the other kids in the slum, which easily arouses suspicion from others.
He maintained a frightened and innocent expression, standing there at a loss like a lost child.
Linda spread her hands and said, "Grandma, I didn't kidnap him. He was a pet of a noble. He must have made a mistake and was thrown outside. I picked him up."
The old woman narrowed her eyes, obviously not believing a word he said.
