The Legend of Fatality

Chapter 316: Russell

There is no greater sin than betrayal. All traitors must be pulled out, hunted down, exposed and punished.

——The Code of Thieves

Gili sat in the corner of the secret room at the base of the thieves gang, staying in the shadow as always, because when she was hiding here, the easier it was for others to ignore her. She couldn't waste "magic" on blocking these men's contact, and she barely recovered the power she used to meet with the wizard official of the Fatalin Association a few days ago.

The group of thieves gathered around the table in the room as usual, busy rolling dice or discussing the details of other actions. The smoke from dozens of pipes gathered on the roof, the walls were blackened by the smoke of many pipes, and a small pile of garbage was piled on the ground. Russell ’s gang of thieves, like other thieves ’dens, has not always been known for its cleanliness.

There is a door at the back of the room. Behind the door is a twisted stone staircase that leads to a dense passage in the alleyway disguised as an underground waterway cover. This room, like many rooms hidden in the civilian area of ​​Fatalin City, should not exist.

Raw laughter came from the room in front, Russell and five or six associates spent an ordinary afternoon in beer and yellow jokes. Russell ’s table is right next to the humble bar in the room. The overpriced alcoholic drinks at the bar are just one of many ways Russell exploits his men. Underground criminals in Fatalin City have learned a lot of such tricks from mages and nobles.

Geely tried his best to hide his body. A few months ago, she would not believe that life would be worse without her brother. Although her brother ’s anger was quite violent, he often prevented other members from starting against Geely. There are not many women in the gang of thieves, and women who have a relationship with the underground world usually end up as prostitutes. Her brother always tells her that if a girl wants to live an independent life in this world, she must be tough, even stronger than a man.

Do you think there will be a boss who wants you like a soft-foot shrimp member? He said so. I ’m your brother, but I do n’t even want to cooperate with you. Geely still remembers every sentence her brother said. Some of the reasons are that these words made her survive and understand what she needs to do to survive. Another part of the reason is that even she herself can't tell.

Her back still hurts. The day before yesterday, Russell took her a few whips, and her blood stains ruined her shirt, but she had no money to buy new ones. Russell deducted all her salary to pay off the debts left by her brother. How much is Russell, but she never got a coin from the thief's head.

Although Geely has no money, there is no new shirt. But I am very strong, she thought.

This is the place of irony. The whipping she received was hardly painful because her brother often punched and kicked her. Ironically, this made Geely very resistant. At the same time, her brother taught her how to look humble and weak. To some extent, the whipping she suffered often had a counter-effect. The bruises and whip marks on Geely's body always healed, but each time she was beaten, it made her tougher.

Yes, stronger.

Russell stood up and reached into the pocket of his coat and took out his gold pocket watch. He nodded to one of his companions, searching the room with his eyes, looking for ... her.

His eyes locked Geely. "Time is up"

Geely frowned. What time?

————

The building of the Finance Department of the Fatalin Association is quite magnificent, but the architectural style of the Fatalin Association has always been quite magnificent. These mages built tall magistrate towers, just like the palace administrative building. There are also colleges like gardens and theaters, but this style also seems to be related to the fact that almost all of these buildings were built by dwarves.

There is a huge glass window on the front of the towering square building. From the outside, the color of the windows is dull. Two wide banners hung by the window, and the snow-covered bulletin board read the departmental division in this building.

Russell's experience is very old to examine the building, Geely can feel his tension. The finance department is not the most feared association department-the courtroom, and even the magic research department is the more frightening department. However, you must actively enter any department of the Fatalin Association and put yourself in the hands of those magistrate officials. You must go through very careful thinking before doing such a thing.

Russell took a deep breath, and then stepped forward, his cane struck the rock at once with his pace. He was dressed in gorgeous aristocratic costumes, surrounded by five or six members of the gang of thieves, including Geely, all dressed up as his servants.

Geely followed Russell up the stairs, and then waited for a team member to step forward quickly and open the door for the ‘master’. Of the six entourages, only Geely seemed to know nothing about Russell's real plan. More suspiciously, Russell ’s partner Daimara in this mage scam is also missing. Starting

Geely walked into the administrative building, the bright red light and the shimmering blue light penetrated through the glass window and fell. A young mage in a red robe sat behind the table, at the end of the long walkway. Geely felt that the young man with red hair looked like a fox.

Russell stepped forward, and the crutches struck the carpet with the pace. "I am Lord Broderick," he said.

What are you doing, Russell? Geely thought. You insisted to Daimara that you did not want to meet with the officials of the finance department in the administrative office of the Fatalin Association, but you are here now.

The mage nodded, wrote a note in the notebook, and waved his hand to the side. "You can bring an attendant into the waiting room, the others must wait here."

Russell snorted conspicuously, expressing his thoughts on the ban, but the mage didn't even raise his head and continued to look at the notebook. Russell stood for a while, and Geely couldn't tell whether he was real Is still pretending to be a proud nobleman. Finally, he pointed at Geely.

"You come with me." He finished, turning around and taking a cumbersome step into the room.

The decor of the room is both high-end and extravagant, and several people who look like merchants are waiting in different poses. Russell chose a chair and sat down, pointing at the table with wine and brown sugar cake, Geely obediently brought him a glass of wine and a plate of food, and subconsciously ignored the hunger in his belly. Russell began to eat the cake in a big bite and licked his mouth gently while eating.

He was very nervous, even more nervous than before. When Geely watched Russell keep pushing cakes in his mouth, he thought he needed food more when he was nervous.

"As soon as we entered the room, you were not allowed to say anything." Russell muttered as he ate.

"You are betraying Daimara." Geely whispered.

Russell nodded.

"But ... how to do it? Why?" Daimara's plan is very complicated to execute ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ but the concept is very simple. Recently and in the future, every year the Fatalin Association dispatches some soldiers from the port of Tatuga to Fatalin City to exchange them with the newly trained soldiers in Fatalin City, and Daimara found that these soldiers and their officers would carry large The huge sum of pens, disguised as luggage, can be stored in the vault in the city of Fatalin. It is said that the money came from a dark elf captain.

On Fatalin Island, robbery is difficult, because there are often patrols on both sides of the avenue between several towns or the canal path. However, if the person who started is also responsible for the ship on which the soldiers are riding, then the robbery may be established. As long as the time is right ... the guards can make a lot of money for the passengers, and they can all blame the robbers.

"Dymar's men are too weak," Russell said quietly. "He was consuming too much resources in this operation." First launch https: // https: //

"But what he deserves ..." Geely said.

"There will never be, if I run with money now," Russell smiled. "I will persuade the Fatalin Association officials to give me a deposit to allow the merchant fleet to operate, and then disappear, leaving Daimara to deal with the disaster when the Fatalin Association found it deceived."

Geely stepped back slightly with the plate in amazement. Arranging this scam cost Daimara thousands of gold coins. If the transaction was unsuccessful, he would be completely destroyed. After the Fatalin Association pursued it, he would not even have time to seek revenge on Russell. Russell will take advantage of it now and at the same time solve one of his most powerful opponents.
