Chapter 131: The Dark Elf with Ideals
Seeing the soul in the toy bear's hand, Roman knew it was settled.
"Aaron, quickly interrogate where they are holding the Baron!"
The toy bear nodded and shook his head.
"This minotaur seemed to have some courage. I was afraid that interrogating the soul would waste too much time and give the Rebel Party time to move their tracks, so I used some means to shatter the soul and read his memory directly!"
Looking at the dim soul in the toy bear's palm, Roman nodded understandingly.
"Well said, it's not worth wasting time for a soul! So, what did you find?"
"Hmm, do you remember the mixed-blood youth whose arm and leg were broken by Lord Ogros last time? That is the leader of the Rebel Party! Their cadres also include a goat-headed demon and a goblin engineer. Their current lair is on Zi Jing Hua Jie in the Bei Qu!"
"So it was that mixed-blood elf who has been causing trouble? Truly not knowing life from death! Is that all you found? No trace of the Baron?"
"No! Because I used more radical means, this soul is already shattered, and I only obtained this much useful information!"
"Hmm, that can't be helped! Alright, give me the specific address, and I'll go to the Bei Qu to look for it! That goat-headed demon just escaped from my hands; I'm afraid he will notify his accomplices to run away!"
"If that's the case, I'm afraid it's already too late! Let's go take a look for now. Leave this matter to me; I will notify you the moment I have news!"
Roman knew very well how cunning these Rebel Party members were. The moment that goat-headed demon escaped, he understood that today would be a fruitless trip. It was truly a disservice to the Baron; it was rare that the Baron's pet had led the way so accurately!
"Then I'll leave it to you, Aaron. My little treasures still need some repairs and improvements. I'll wait for your news at the manor!"
Roman nodded. Even his father recognized Aaron's strength and ability to handle affairs, so there shouldn't be any problem leaving things to him.
Thus, Roman turned his head and said to the team of shock troop members following him.
"You guys just follow Aaron, and by the way, give Aaron a detailed account of the battle situation just now!"
After handing everything over to Aaron, Roman looked back and saw Lilisi watching the show from a rooftop not far away.
"Hey, do you want to come back with me to wait for the Baron?"
Although Roman couldn't understand beast language, spiritual beasts like this could generally understand human speech. It had led the way for him just now.
Sure enough, as Roman's voice fell, the crow spiritual bird shook its wet wings and landed on the shoulder of the Dark Elf Wumusi, who was standing with his head bowed nearby.
"Haha, did you agree? That's great. You there, from now on you are to be a qualified mount, come with me!"
The expression on the Dark Elf's face went from initial surprise, to joy, to hesitation, like a wonderful face-changing performance.
Although it was shameful to be asked to be a crow's mount, as long as Young Master Roman could really take him over, it meant his life was saved, and there would be no need to be like that unlucky minotaur, having his soul extracted to read his memory.
Wumusi looked cautiously at the toy bear beside him. There was no expression on Aaron's furry bear face.
Roman didn't care about this; after speaking, he turned and walked toward the City Lord's Mansion.
Seeing that the toy bear still had no reaction, Wumusi gritted his teeth, bowed to Aaron, and followed the rabbit step by step.
A huge joy of escaping death wrapped around Wumusi's chest. Originally, he had already prepared himself psychologically for death, never expecting to escape death because of a crow.
Looking at the crow standing on his shoulder, Wumusi couldn't help but raise his shoulder slightly to let Lord Crow stand more comfortably. The attitude one should have toward a savior still had to be shown.
Seeing Wumusi being so sensible, Roman nodded with satisfaction.
"What is your name? Why aren't you wearing the shock troop uniform?"
Hearing Roman's question, Wumusi knew his opportunity had come.
"Young Master Roman, this subordinate is not a shock troop member. You can just call me Wumusi!"
"Not a shock troop member? Then you can follow me from now on! Help me take good care of this little guy."
Roman pointed casually at Lilisi on Wumusi's shoulder. After he finished speaking, Wumusi was overjoyed.
"Yes, Young Master Roman! This subordinate will definitely take care of this spiritual bird with all my heart."
Xie Yaoyao had previously used Lilisi's senses to watch the entire battle of the toy bear Aaron killing the minotaur Buleide in seconds, and naturally, he had also heard Buleide's shouting earlier.
This Wumusi was undoubtedly colluding with Aier and their Rebel Party.
"Caw caw!"
Lilisi pecked Wumusi's head hard, making him gasp in pain.
"Hahaha, the Baron's pet is really interesting, hahaha..."
Laughing and laughing, Roman's laughter suddenly turned cold, and a pair of blood-red eyes stared fixedly at Wumusi, who was accompanying him with a smile.
"Wumusi, is there something you should confess?"
"Young Master Roman!" Wumusi was so scared that he shivered and was about to kneel, shaking Lilisi on his shoulder until she couldn't stand steadily, and then he hurriedly stopped, standing still as if frozen.
"Young Master, I dare not hide it from you! This subordinate has done some wrong things before and had some contact with the Rebel Party!"
Roman's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was already calculating whether to create a mechanical Dark Elf.
Beads of sweat seeped from Wumusi's forehead, and his heart was already in his throat.
He could almost hear his own heartbeat in his eardrums—thump, thump, thump, thump, thump, thump!
Just escaped the tiger's mouth and entered the wolf's den!
"Continue!"
Roman turned and walked away, his cold voice making the drizzle seem even more freezing.
Wumusi didn't dare to delay and followed with small steps.
"Because of interest exchanges, I was involved too deeply with some organizations before. Later I found out they were organizations under the Rebel Party. Because I was afraid... afraid of the shock troops' encirclement and suppression, I concealed it..."
Roman interrupted Wumusi's words impatiently.
"I'm not interested in these. Did you participate in this assassination attempt on the Baron!"
"I... we... helped monitor... monitored Lord Aaron's movements!"
Wumusi's voice was trembling.
Monitoring one of the three giants of Fantexi City, now looking back, was his brain sick at the time to actually do such a thing.
Ah! It was that damn demon Bafengte; he must have cast some magic on me!
"Why did you need to monitor Aaron?"
Roman was a bit puzzled. The three of them were always unpredictable in their movements; why would they monitor him?
"Because Lord Aaron has been staying in the Dong Qu for several days, seemingly looking for something! So Bafengte of the Rebel Party asked us to help monitor Lord Aaron."
Roman led Wumusi and Lilisi all the way into the huge manor of the City Lord's Mansion, but doubts arose in his heart.
Why did Aaron want to guard the Dong Qu?
Specifically waiting for the Baron?
But, why? ===== CHAPTER 132 =====
