Destiny Thief

Chapter 13 Journey to Avron III
The subordinates followed the "old rules" and put this week's "harvest" on the square table in front of Cosmo. Money bags of various colors and textures quickly piled up into a hill.

Cosmo widened his bell-like eyes, which were full of greed, and then opened his arms and hugged Xiaoshan in his arms. The unique "clang" of coins colliding with each other made him more intoxicated.

With the help of the thin and tall man beside him, Cosmo shook the coins in the purse on the table, and the shining luster of the coins immediately filled the whole room. Those strong men who looked fierce or wretched saw such a scene , the same eyes were shining, but when Cosmo raised his head, this change in expression was concealed quietly.

His thick fingers kept flicking the coins on the table. The smile on Cosmo's face froze a little bit, and his two bushy brown eyebrows frowned. The whole room was so silent that only Cosmo's heavy breathing could be heard.

"boom--"

The huge and powerful palm slapped the table heavily, causing echoes, and even knocked off the dust on the roof beams and pillars. Cosmo's face became grim, "Why is there only so much in Leel? The rest are all copper coins ?”

Picking up a handful of coins in the palm of his hand, "哗啦啦" kept flowing out from the gap between his fingers. Although "Grizzly" Cosmo has well-developed limbs, he is by no means a simple-minded person who can create a world in Afron, where dragons and snakes are mixed. .

This week's income is far worse than in the past. Cosmo doubts whether his subordinates have too serious corruption behaviors——Cosmo is very aware of the virtues of his subordinates. It doesn't matter, as long as the degree is not too much, he has always turned a blind eye.

It's just that this week's income has been reduced by more than one-third, and Cosmo can't help being angry.

"Boss, all the shops on White Pigeon Street were transferred to Viscount Dural by those nasty foreigners. It happened last week."

The tall and thin man next to him reminded him cautiously.His name is Billy, and he has been faithfully following Cosmo for many years.From the original "fang mercenary group" to the current "bloody fang", now in this organization, they belong to the existence of aides.

Cosmo snorted, but didn't speak again.

Those shops were transferred to Viscount Dural, so the protection fee could not be collected again—"Grizzly" Cosmo didn't have the courage to fight against that lord.Although "Blood Fang" is a powerful existence among the civilians of Afron, it is completely unsatisfactory in the face of the real noble class of the Kingdom of Elantra.Not to mention anything else, Viscount Dural's own strength as a high-ranking inaugural knight is enough for him to look up to.

Cosmo didn't want to suddenly expose the dead body on the beach one day, or be fished out of the moat by the city guards like garbage, but he was inexplicably a little annoyed when he saw the pile of coins on the table in front of him, which was obviously much less in total.

This negative emotion quickly spread from his heart to his body, causing him to stand up from the armchair and start walking around the room like a restless giant bear. Seeing the white spots, Cosmo suddenly stopped and looked out the window.

Then, with a few quick breaths, Cosmo turned around, with his usual expression, staring at the members of "Blood Fang", "Did you find any rich outsiders recently?"

The loss of "financial resources" on Baige Street has become an established reality, and Cosmo can only accept it helplessly, but this does not mean that he can tolerate the shining Leyle slipping away from now on. He decided to slaughter a few "fat sheep" on a regular basis to add Losses—and those out-of-towners who ran to Avron without any roots were the best targets.

……

The land of dolphins.

After dinner, Glo and his party did not run to the tavern downstairs to have some fun like ordinary travelers—in the bustling Afron, every night, some vagrants would appear in the taverns in the downtown area. Kabuki, bards telling tales of war history or aristocrats, and whores wearing cheap makeup, scantily clad women who would sit in their arms for a few sols. You can do it your way, if you are willing to spend more, you can even have a good night.

Glo and his party are holding a meeting.

As always, the meeting was brief.

"Well, regarding the matter of the bone of resentment, Oliver and I are going to visit the chamber of commerce in Lower Afron."

"Others, watch over the goods, and—don't drink too much alcohol."

After these two sentences, Glo and Oliver walked straight out of "Dolphin Country".

Glo plans to look for potential buyers of the "Bone of Revenge" - this kind of alchemy material dedicated to legal professions is not as easy to sell as ordinary goods. In fact, the real buyers are only those wizarding organizations.

However, it is now August 553 in the continental calendar, so far, Glo has not heard any news about the wizarding organization.The first time he came to Afron in his previous life was the winter of 8 in the middle of the second version of "Castle of Darkness". Various wizarding organizations can be seen everywhere in Afron, and the trading of alchemy materials is very common.

But now, it is almost difficult to find traces of wizarding organizations in Afron City. If you want to sell this batch of "Bones of Resentment", it is best to go to those chambers of commerce-big chambers of commerce have various broad channels, perhaps with There may be some transactional relationship between the wizards of Dill.This is also the reason why Glo chose to come to Afron. Only the big chambers of commerce or organizations here have enough financial resources to eat this batch of goods.

All the way, Glo and Oliver came directly to the "Golden Anchor" Chamber of Commerce on Fleet Street in the North City District, which is one of the few large chambers of commerce in Afron.

After explaining the purpose of coming, the head of the Chamber of Commerce received the two of them with a gesture of aristocratic etiquette.The principal is an old man with gray hair. Corresponding to the wrinkled skin and dots of age spots are a pair of piercing eyes. After helping the small amber eyes on the bridge of his nose, the old man looks In a slow, non-fluctuating tone, he asked leisurely, "Your Excellency intends to make a move on the Bone of Resentment?"

"Yes."

Gro nodded, took out a slender animal tibia from his pocket, and handed it to the old man in front of him.

"But this kind of thing can only be used in black magic."

After taking the tibia, the old man glanced at it and quickly put it down, "There is no connection between the golden giant anchor and those evil wizards."

"Thank you."

Without too many words, Glo and Oliver already understood the meaning of the old man, got up and said goodbye to the old man.

The visit to the first chamber of commerce ended here, which can be described as "unfavorable start".

Walking on Fleet Street in the cool summer night, Glo calmed down a bit and decided to continue to the second house.
