Chapter 243: Hanfulei Talks About the Green Leaf Thieves

~7 min read 1,320 words

"Heroine Nie! The map is here!"

Hanfulei's lecherous and fawning voice came from outside the carriage.

Nie Yingying was very surprised that this guy had adapted to the job of an attendant so quickly, and was able to take the initiative to find out the name!

"Come in!"

Nie Yingying was not a very mean person; she was just relatively serious usually, but Travelers still had a psychological condescension toward the natives of the Fairytale World.

Hanfulei was wearing old clothes made of coarse hemp fiber, and mottled green stains of mud and grass seeds remained on his knees.

Watching such a sloppy big man enter his carriage, little Konrad's eyes twitched, and his gaze always drifted unconsciously to the wet mud on Hanfulei's buckled leather boots, which looked like it had been crawled over by beetles.

In the middle of the carriage sat a folding tea table inlaid with mother-of-pearl, trembling in the bumps. Hanfulei's thick fingers smoothed out the yellowed cowhide map in a few strokes and did not retreat. He knew that Nie Yingying must have something to ask him.

Sure enough, after carefully examining the map, Nie Yingying looked up at Hanfulei, who was standing in the carriage with his back arched.

"You said that the information about the caravan has already been known by the entire Green Leaf Thief alliance, right!"

"Yes!" Hanfulei, who was uncomfortable bending over, knelt on one knee very simply and very sensibly drew an irregular circle on the map. "The sphere of influence of the Green Leaf Thieves is about this big. They will not easily let go of the prey they have targeted."

Hanfulei betrayed his former companions without any psychological burden, and in his words, he already called them "they," implying that he had nothing to do with "them" anymore.

In fact, Hanfulei was not considered a very powerful branch among the Green Leaf Thieves, and now his minions had been wiped out. Defecting to a strong person was actually a good thing for him.

In the eyes of a Traveler, there was no feeling at all about the loyalty and betrayal of the natives. Seeing that Hanfulei was sensible, Nie Yingying was very satisfied and nodded to signal him to continue.

Only little Konrad looked at the sloppy big man in front of him with full eyes of contempt.

So smelly! How many days has this man not taken a bath?!

Encouraged, Hanfulei spoke again: "You should have heard of this gang of bandits long ago, but let me tell you about the specific situation."

Leaning forward, Hanfulei reached out and pointed to the map.

"'Ice Fang' Olaf, that guy can drive wolf packs to clear the way; his influence and strength are the most powerful among the Green Leaf Thieves. Between the Death Swamp in the southeast and the Emerald Forest, there is 'Snake Vine' Ma'erge. She is a lunatic, always saying that she is protected by the Snake God. The hills in the north..." Every time he said a name, his calloused palm would rub against the seam of his pants. "As for the remaining dozen or so scattered nests, they are like termites on rotten wood—"

Hanfulei's second half of the sentence took a sharp turn: "Like a small fry like me, they were torn apart and eaten by the three major alliances before the Frost Moon last year." He grinned, revealing a missing yellow tooth.

Nie Yingying's fingers tapped on the wolf-head totem marked "Ice Fang." The ripples caused by the silver teaspoon spread over the tea soup, shattering the half-flattering smile reflected in the cup.

There was no need to worry about the north; the caravan was heading south all the way to Longfang City-State.

That Ma'erge person reminded Nie Yingying of the Hydra that was swallowed alive by Xie Yaoyao in the plot world. Come to think of it, wasn't Xie Yaoyao some kind of 【Shadow Lord】? His territory seemed to be nearby. But let's put this aside for now, because the team wouldn't go in the direction of the Death Swamp.

The most critical one was that "Ice Fang" Olaf. Being able to drive wolf packs, he should have some skills, which could be used to exercise her skills well.

As for the remaining scum, if they were all like Hanfulei, they were just couriers sent to deliver entries.

Now that she was a Fifth-Tier bloodline powerhouse, Nie Yingying didn't care much about the so-called Green Leaf Thieves. Her main purpose was still to see if there were any opponents to train her skills and dig into her bloodline power.

She was increasingly understanding why those world-renowned powerhouses were almost all bloodline powerhouses.

Bloodline is the foundation, profession is the use!

"Call me when it's time to eat!" Waving her hand, Nie Yingying drove Hanfulei off the carriage. "Also, take a bath when you pass by a stream or lake, otherwise I will peel your skin off myself. I can tolerate the smell of blood better than the stench!"

Little Konrad on the side nodded frantically; he really couldn't tolerate the stench on Hanfulei.

"Of... of course, your will is my life!"

Hanfulei rolled off the carriage nimbly and immediately found the caravan manager Kalomu to ask how long it would be before the caravan set up camp.

Under old Kalomu's wary gaze, Hanfulei explained that he was not trying to find out the news of the camp to tip off the Green Leaf Thieves, but to find a place to take a bath for the sake of his life.

Although old Kalomu couldn't understand Nie Yingying's purpose in keeping a bandit leader, his respect for the strong made him tell Hanfulei the news.

Watching Hanfulei ride away on his horse, old Kalomu finally came to the carriage in the middle of the caravan.

"Young Master Konrad, Miss Nie, the bandit leader just left with the news of our camp destination!"

"It doesn't matter, Grandpa Kalomu! The Green Leaf Thieves are all veterans wandering nearby. Even if you don't tell him, he can estimate the approximate location based on our vehicle speed." Little Konrad's logic was clear and his voice was calm. "And with Miss Nie here, there is no need to worry about safety issues at all."

Hearing his young master's words, old Kalomu didn't let go of the worry in his heart, but his habit of obeying orders still made him take his worries to arrange caravan matters.

"Baron, do you want that dirty bandit to gather the remaining Green Leaf Thieves? How do you plan to deal with that group of bandits who kill and rob? Are you planning to wipe them all out?"

Sending away the old servant, little Konrad looked at Nie Yingying with glowing eyes. He felt that this was the adventure in his mind, and the powerful Nie Yingying was naturally the embodiment of justice and the incarnation of wisdom.

Shaking her head with a chuckle, Nie Yingying saw that Silly Yaoyao on the side had fallen asleep leaning against the carriage wall at some point. Even in his sleep, Xie Yaoyao was holding the little red umbrella tightly.

They say men are boys until they die; this silly guy also had some innocent temperament when he slept.

Looking at the real boy beside her, Nie Yingying replied: "No, their survival depends only on their luck! If Hanfulei really goes to find them, then it's their time to die! If not, then it's not their time to die!"

"I can't take the initiative to hunt down mere bandits; I've already passed the stage of chasing entries!" Nie Yingying thought to herself.

But in the eyes of the boy, Konrad felt that Nie Yingying was simply cool at this moment, and if he could become as cool as her one day, that would be great.

"Baron, you... can you... sigh!" ===== CHAPTER 244 =====
