These big shots are actually me - #53 - Chapter 53
Verdani also understood, and then silently moved the treasure box away with a blush on her face.
It’s not that she’s too light, it’s that she’s too strong…
At the same time, he also changed the topic and said with a smile:
“It looks like that fat guy named Hidetoshi Miyazaki didn’t even show any mercy.”
The only somewhat comforting treasure chest in the only safe hall in the entire maze turned out to be a trap. This is really vicious.
Mo Zuo’s face became more and more complicated, but he also said without conscience:
“Yeah, this is really despicable!”
“Ah, young master, does this person I’m talking about have a good relationship with the Lang family?”
Verdani put down the treasure box and asked with a bit of worry.
Mo Zuo coughed and then categorically denied:
“No, how can the Lang family have a close relationship with such a person? It’s just a cooperation.”
It seems that in Verdani’s eyes, the Wolf family has a very noble aura, and Mozo has no intention of destroying this vision.
After Verdani moved the treasure box, Mozo walked to the pile of weird and huge tree roots.
After looking around, he opened his hands and recited loudly:
“Old mysterious wall, I have returned, please show me the truth behind you!” (Chinese)
As soon as the words fell, the huge tree roots were withdrawn into the soil one after another due to the earthquake, revealing to Mozo the real treasures preserved in this maze!
It was a stone treasure chest placed on a small platform that was as tall as a person.
Mozo stepped forward and opened the treasure box, and took out an exquisite bracelet inlaid with emerald green gems.
This is the lucky path seal that Mozo placed here: 1-86 – the bracelet of the Goddess of Luck.
92 The ‘return’ of the Wolf family? (4k)
At the entrance of the maze, there were already several charred corpses of men in black and war horses.
As Mozo said before, it was strange that the other party did not see horses or people showing off at the door. Shortly after Mozo and Verdani went down, the people in black robes who were moving around randomly to avoid the crystal ball in the hands of the governor came back to see the situation because they felt that the people who went down had not responded for too long.
As a result, they collided head-on with Miss Knight and Audrey.
After a brief deliberation, the people in black robes chose to charge head-on. They have advantages in numbers and equipment.
They thought they could at least easily eat the two little girls at the door. But what they never expected was that among these two little girls there was not only a sequence five knight lady.
Moreover, Miss Knight is the thunder-calling guard least afraid of head-on battles in Sequence Five!
After several thunderbolts, the people in black robes who had been confident of victory a moment ago were all dead instantly except for one person left behind by Miss Knight.
Even the one left behind by Miss Knight was severely shocked, but this was exactly what Miss Knight wanted.
She knew that these people were carefully trained to die. Once they know they are outmatched and unable to escape, they will simply choose to commit suicide to avoid suffering and possibly leaking information.
Therefore, she directly electrocuted the remaining living mouth until it was half dead. She was also paralyzed and unable to make further movements.
After checking around to confirm that there was no one alive, Miss Knight dragged the unlucky guy all the way over.
He also found rope from their supplies and prepared to tie it up.
Audrey, on the other hand, was holding on to the wall and retching. She thought that after the previous ‘exercise’, she had some immunity to corpses.
But this was the first time she had seen a corpse smelling like meat. So when she smelled the smell of barbecue, she immediately retched.
At this time, Mozo came out with Verdani, who was still holding the huge treasure box. It’s very eye-catching at first glance.
Audrey, who was still retching, wanted to say hello and ask about the situation, but when she raised her head, she smelled the smell again and continued to lower her head.
This made Mo Zuo feel pity.
On the other side, Miss Knight, who was tying up the man in black robe, tightened the rope and looked towards Mo Zuo and the other two.
With just one glance, she noticed the obviously different atmosphere between the two.
If it was just two parties A and B who had a good impression of each other before, now they are a serious pair of master and slave.
Master-slave?
Subconsciously, the force in Miss Knight’s hand increased. The man in black robe below who was still unconscious was woken up. He seemed to want to remind him. But the increasing force made him unable to even speak.
I could only clearly feel the crazy overflow of air in my lungs and the rapid congestion of my eye sockets.
Did Verdani approve of Mozzo?
It was also at this moment that Miss Knight noticed Verdani’s hand holding the treasure box. The bandage on it was very beautiful. Of course, this was not important. What was important was that Mozzo’s hand also had the same gauze.
A wound on your hand? Master-slave relationship?
Is it a blood contract? !
After realizing this, Miss Knight suddenly stood up, and at the same time, her hands holding the rope were greatly raised, and then there was a series of crisp sounds of broken bones.
The poor man in black robe was strangled to death immediately.
Mozo, who heard the sound of bones breaking, looked over immediately, and then said to Miss Knight with a bit of horror:
“Miss Jasmine, the tongue you grabbed seems to have been strangled by you?”
Oh my God, it takes so much effort to tie someone up? From now on, no one will dare to play intense games with her.
“Ah? Ah!”
After regaining consciousness, the knight lady immediately hurriedly packed up the rope, but it was better to say that she was packing away than escaping.
Miss Knight didn’t know what she was thinking right now. Logically speaking, she should be happy for Mozo, because he had a noble knight who was no worse than her.
We should also send blessings to Verdani, who is also a knight, because she has found a master worthy of her blood contract.
But why did the two of them together make her upset?
Obviously she should be happy to send blessings, but why can’t she even look at them?
At the same time, it seems that Verdani here is also looking at Jasmine Windsor, who seems to be in a hurry, and slightly raises the corners of her mouth.
Jasmine, I found an excellent master one step ahead of you!
Mozo looked around and frowned and said:
“Why are the reinforcements from the north coming so slowly?!”
Counting from the time Verdani delivered the news to now, it’s time for the reinforcements from the north to arrive, right?
By the way, the same thing happened with the Green Angel incident last time. Clearly, the reinforcements should have arrived long ago. As a result, no one came after the beating.
Moreover, the Green Angel heard from the Queen that time that it seemed that some sealed object had affected the flow of time. What about this time? Is it possible that this group of black-robed men can also have incredible sealed objects like the Green Angel? Could it be that the armaments in the north have been relaxed to this point?
Mozo felt quite unhappy at this moment. When he was still here, where in the North would it be like this?
But I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or what. Just after Mozo said this, he heard a loud noise in his ears.
At the same time, there was a slight vibration on the ground, and soon after, a large number of cavalry appeared on the hillside opposite the lake.
They wore half breastplates, carried sabers and muskets on their waists, and carried the latest breech-loading rifles with fixed charges on their backs.
This thing has been a trend in recent years, but rifles with fixed charges are installed in large numbers throughout the empire, including the Fog City and the Northern Territory.
But because it is an era where extraordinary people are everywhere, even this kind of army that has stood at the ‘frontier’ of the era in its previous life can only be regarded as second-rate or even third-rate when looking at the entire world.
The real first-class are those armies that are equipped with a large number of extraordinary weapons and are even extraordinary in their own right.
For example, the elite Skitarii of the major Holy Sees and the higher-level Skitarii Knights. Or the personal troops of various lords, or the elite legions carefully cultivated by various countries.
There are even powerful armies among these troops that have been blessed by a great being since the age of myth.
These are the most outstanding troops in this world and even in future generations.
But the advent of firearms and their corresponding extraordinary improvements. It still gives ordinary people further confidence to face extraordinary beings.
Otherwise, it would not be possible for all countries to install firearms that were quite expensive and not cost-effective at that time.
At the same time, looking at the direction the other party came from, Mozo concluded that these people were garrison troops in his territory.
The leading officer led the team slowly down the hillside and came to Mo Zuo. He first glanced at the body on the ground, then dismounted and saluted Mo Zuo:
“Dear Lord Viscount, we have been ordered to come to support you.”
This attitude made Verdani quite dissatisfied. But there was no attack. It also showed understanding.
Because she knew that she was the only one who knew the true identity of the young master at the moment.
In this case, the other party is not disrespectful when facing the Young Wolf Lord. They just don’t like the nobles from Fog City.
But since the young master is the last descendant of the Lang family, how did he avoid the scrutiny of Fog City?
Such doubts puzzled the girl, but as a knight, she would not ask if her master didn’t tell her.
Mozo nodded and then asked:
“Based on the time, you should have arrived early?”
The other party replied calmly:
“I’m sorry, Lord Viscount. I’m afraid our departure time is much later than you realize.”
Mo Zuo frowned and said:
“what do you mean?”
The officer continued:
“We did get Miss Verdani’s request for help at the first time, but we can’t set off immediately because I need to wait for a reply from White Castle. Without Lord Gawain’s instructions, it is impossible for us to go out.”
Mozo looked into the other person’s eyes and asked:
“But Wei Erdanni also sent a letter to White Castle as soon as possible. With the speed of White Castle, it is impossible for you to stay so late at night, right?”
This is an extraordinary world, and it may be quite difficult to achieve fast communication for personal and even civilian purposes. But for military purposes, Mozo can hardly believe that White Castle has such low control over surrounding military towns.
The other party also nodded in agreement:
“We thought so too, so we quickly prepared to set off, but what surprised us was that the order from White Castle was issued very late.”
“You may not believe it, but we have tried our best to get here.”
After saying that, the other party stood aside with his head held high. They had no affiliation with the lords of the Riverlands, and he had no fear or inclination to care about their authority.
Mozo looked back at the sweat stains on the opponent’s horse and recognized that the opponent was indeed trying his best to catch up. Then he turned to look at Verdani and said:
“Verdani, please contact White Castle. I suspect something happened at White Castle!”
If the other party didn’t mean to be disgusting or lie, then it could only be that something went wrong on White Castle’s part. Hope it’s nothing serious, just an accidental mistake.
But Mozo doesn’t have much hope for this, because if you think about it carefully, the demigods of the Heather Empire can run into his territory, which explains the problem.

At the same time, the half-blind young man who changed the teleportation coordinates of the teleportation rune and escaped was also successfully rescued by the subordinates who arrived.
He was receiving treatment from his subordinates. While asking his subordinates:
“Where are the chess pieces? Where are the chess pieces?”
This time he made a huge overturn. Not only did his mission to find the Oath Sword completely fail, but he also ended up with almost all the elite men in his hands.
But the most terrible thing is that Demigod Hall is dead!
Because of him, the empire lost a demigod!
This responsibility undisputedly fell on his head. No matter how much His Majesty the Emperor thought highly of him, he would not be able to get any better on this matter.
So he urgently needs a good-looking feat to recover the losses he caused.
But what surprised him was the hesitation from his subordinates:
“Sir, sir, you have just set out not long ago. Someone from the headquarters has taken over the task of chess pieces with full authority. And the other party has already taken the chess pieces to White Castle!”
“What?”
The half-blind young man was completely stunned this time.
“Why, what’s the reason? We are responsible for the plans of the chess pieces!”
He finally found the chess pieces. He also risked his life to negotiate with the lion Gawain.
