Guild Boss's Ambition

Raftan, who had been silent and serious all the way, firmly caught little Uru's arm.

The Paladin lady said calmly, "That's enough, Miss. If you keep killing like this, the mistress and I will have to go and capture a few more alive. So, can you please hand the people over to me for interrogation now?"

The fact once again illuminates that Raftan is also a city guy who knows how to have fun.

Not to mention that the two of them reached a tacit understanding of one playing the good cop and the other playing the bad cop without saying a word, just the role setting of the eldest lady and the mistress is enough for me to give her a thumbs up.

But, coming back to the point, as a paladin who preaches love and peace, can Raftan really do a good job of interrogation?

Raftan half-knelt on the ground, gently touched the dwarf's cheek, and said softly: "My friend, you have seen our eldest lady's bad temper (Uru shouted beside: What do you mean by my bad temper!), now just tell me everything you know honestly, and you will not be hurt. Otherwise, it will be the turn of the mistress to kill herself, and your fate may be──"

Raftan stopped talking and turned to look up at me sitting high up.

The dwarf lady also followed her line of sight and looked over -

I had no choice but to go along with their plot setting and smiled gently at the legal loli.

"I confess! I confess everything!"

Hey, hey! I'm obviously a beautiful and elegant lady! Do you have to be so scared?

*******************************************************************

Her name was Gran, but she claimed to be Tatar. This female dwarf was undoubtedly a liar. When there was only one source of information, there was no way to compare the information she provided to verify its authenticity...

Huh? No! Wait!

Why didn’t Bai Ye capture more people for interrogation?

hateful!

It turns out that she is deliberately making things difficult for me and Raftan!

"I confess! I confess everything!"

At this time, the dwarf Gran, who was looking at Bai Ye, cried out with tears in his eyes. She claimed that she would confess, but how much of the information she said was credible? Although Bai Ye had a bossy temperament, it was just an ordinary smile. Did she have to put on such an exaggerated expression of fear?

Could it be that she knew that Bai Ye was a necromancer?

Would she be afraid of a necromancer?

I sat on Xiaoban's back with a calm expression, silently thinking of ways to make the prisoner confess.

When he heard that the female dwarf wanted to confess, Raftan put on a serious and patient expression and asked softly: "Then please tell us everything you know. As the saying goes, leniency to those who confess and severity to those who resist. I don't want you to tell a single lie in what you say later, because I don't want you to lose your final value. After all..."

Raftan lowered his eyes compassionately: "Life is as light as a feather."

I have to admit that Raftan is indeed a bit scary when she scares people. Her expression and demeanor make people think of those religious elements who launched fanatical holy wars. Things like the Crusades, the Thirty Years' War, and the witch hunts seem to be historical events that were created by strong-willed believers like Raftan. Just thinking about it makes people worry about Bai Ye.

Of course, it is our **dwarf girl who should worry about herself now.

In front of the three of us, Gran spoke with a panicked expression that was either fake or real: "Okay, this time I'm telling the truth. My name is Gran-Jai, and I'm also an underground mercenary in Mopolis. Right now, I'm being hired by a man named Dosor to carry out a mission in this forest."

Gran's voice stopped here.

She did not say who Dosor was, or what the mission was.

And we didn't want her to know that we didn't know the inside story.

So, Raftan just said calmly: "Go on."

"What?" Gran asked us blankly.

I pretended to be impatient, slapped her hand, and said coldly: "Don't try to be smart with me! We want everything! Everything!"

Because of my palm scratch, Gran lowered her head and whispered in a dark tone: "Our mission is to eliminate the marching wolves in the forest. At the same time, we also have to find something in the forest. That thing is very mysterious. Only Dosor himself knows what it is and what it looks like. All of us are responsible for protecting him."

"What else?" Raftan reminded in a flat tone.

Hearing this, Gran shrank back and continued, "Dosol is a male half-dragon who is estimated to be over a hundred years old. He looks like he is about thirty years old and has red dragon horns. He is a platinum-level magician. His attributes are unknown, but he once showed us the wind blade technique. He has a gloomy and weird personality, and is very cunning and treacherous."

Gran told us a lot of information that we didn't know, but she also seemed to have concealed a lot.

I caught one of the loopholes and said with disdain, "Dear dwarf friend, you claim to be an underground mercenary, but you are only carrying out the task of protecting a half-dragon in the forest? In fact, you should have other jobs that are not glamorous, right?"

Gran was startled, his eyes lingering between the three of us, and he replied, "Indeed, it's not just our job to protect the forest. We are also ordered to kill anyone who enters the forest. And according to the latest instructions from above, there seem to be three new outsiders. They are a paladin, a necromancer, and a poster girl whose abilities are unknown."

"A poster girl whose abilities are unknown? Huh, it sounds like she's a little bit stronger than the previous two."

I was very pleased with Glen's narrative style.

Having asked to this point, we can basically be sure that the dwarf girl in front is not a good person. However, even if Gran admitted her evil intentions, it does not mean that she has told the whole truth. Perhaps she is still hiding some important information, even the most critical information!

Besides, even with the presence of the Great Demon Lord Bai Ye, this interrogation was a little too smooth.

Suddenly, I narrowed my eyes, put on a mischievous smile, and then, under Raftan's strange gaze, I took off the dwarf female scout's shoes and garters, exposing her feet naked in front of us.

The tied Gran asked in shock: "What...what do you want to do?"

I took out a quill pen and chuckled: "I just want to teach the dishonest bad boy a lesson~~"

"Wait? What do you want to do with that stinky goose feather? No! No, hahahaha! Hahaha! Hahahaha..."

“Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──Hulu──”

After teasing the little feet for a long time, I finally stopped with satisfaction, stood up and asked the blushing female dwarf happily: "What's wrong? Are you willing to get to the point? If you keep dawdling like this, I will lock you in a small dark room and make you do those shameful, flesh-and-blood, and loving things that cannot be published publicly!"

At the end of my words, I turned my gaze towards the white night behind me.

Gran shuddered and panted as he said, "I've told you everything. Didn't I say before that Dosol was looking for something? After arriving in this forest, we gradually discovered that the mysterious thing was actually hidden by the marching wolves in the forest, but Dosol insisted that the thing was still in the forest."

I frowned and asked my first pointed question: "What is that thing?"

Gran gave a blank look and asked, "I don't know either. Only Dosor knows."

Then, I grabbed her hair and asked her several pointed questions in quick succession: "So, who are you serving? And who is the Dosol you mentioned serving? What benefits can you get by helping Dosol? Answer my questions within 30 seconds, or you won't see the sun tomorrow! Speak now!"

Gran said in a panicked voice, "We underground mercenaries have a lot of bounties, at least one hundred gold coins each. As for Dosol, we don't know anything about it, but the Mercenary Chamber of Commerce said that they are a very honest organization and would not deliberately use us mercenaries as pawns. They also rated the danger of this mission as Shura-level."

"What kind of level is Shura level?" I pressed.

"It's the second most dangerous." Gran replied.

Finally, I gave Raftan a look.

Raftan knocked the dwarf Gran unconscious.

At this moment, if what Gran said was not a lie, then the questions that we are most concerned about have almost all been solved. First, the people in the forest are illegal mercenaries, and they are here to find a mysterious object. Secondly, the marching wolves are the other party protecting that object, and in order to fight against the mercenaries, they have formed a formation of broken up into small pieces.

"Then the only question left is—"

I looked at the other two.

Raftan frowned and said, "The identity of the leader, or rather, the identity of Dosor."

Bai Ye raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "I am more interested in that mysterious item. Maybe our biggest gain this time is not the bounty of the mission, but a treasure that is enough to cause the bloody disaster. If you think about it carefully, even if we can't use it for research, we can at least sell it for a lot of gold coins. According to my many years of experience, 100,000 gold coins is a very conservative estimate."

"One hundred thousand gold coins!"

Hearing this price, even Raftan couldn't help but get excited and stood up from the stone.

But Bai Ye was not impatient. Instead, she changed to a slow tone and pointed at the unconscious captive: "By the way, what are you going to do with this fake Lolita? My personal suggestion is to get rid of her in this cave. Carrying her in this forest full of marching wolves and illegal thugs will only add burden to ourselves, and abandoning her anywhere may cause others to pick her up and expose our whereabouts."

Bai Ye's rational analysis made both Raftan and I frown deeply.

When it comes to killing, she never hesitates.

After all, she cherishes her own life far more than other people's lives.

But Raftan and I are different.

The Paladin expressed his thoughts, which were equivalent to expressing part of my opinion: "Use the sleep magic you just used to hide her in this cave. Not all crimes must end with death. It is better to let the court handle her crime. We should love our friends and our enemies. Indiscriminate killing is not a sign of mercy."

Hearing this, Bai Ye shrugged his shoulders and said nothing. He just drew a talisman on the prisoner.

44. Defensive Battle (Little Blue)

(Ulu-Lannon)

Bai Ye engraved an unknown magic spell on Gran's body, and a light blue light flashed around the female dwarf for several seconds. However, when the magic was only halfway through, Bai Ye's eyes suddenly became stern and he laughed: "Haha, the opponent's hounds are about to track us to the entrance of the cave. Uru, Raftan, do you have any ideas and countermeasures?"

The hounds Bai Ye mentioned are most likely referring to the team of the half-dragon Dosor.

Raftan frowned and asked, "How did they track us down?"

Bai Ye replied, "Because it is night, I have no way to effectively remove the footprints. After they realize that Gran is missing, they can easily find this cave based on these footprints. However, generally speaking, their scouts will not risk entering the cave by themselves. Therefore, before their main force arrives, we still have some time to prepare."

Fight or flight?

I automatically imagined two non-existent dialogue window options.

Raftan answered first, "It's already night, and we don't have any scouts or thieves. Plus, our footprints on the snow will be tracked by the enemy. If we run away, they will catch us eventually. Now we can only hide in the cave or fight Dosol and the others."

Great, turns out there is a third option.

hide.

I raised my doubts: "Although I think it is not a wise idea for you two to fight against a large group of enemies, but this cave looks clear at a glance, there is no cover, where should we hide?"

Bai Ye smiled slightly and gave us an option: "I can use earth magic to create a cover, but that can only allow us to escape the naked eye. If they are sensitive to temperature and sound, then we will be discovered by them. Moreover, our vision will be blocked by the rocks and soil, and we will lose the opportunity to attack first."

What Bai Ye meant was that hiding was not recommended.

But if we fight, do we really have a chance of winning?

There are more than twenty people on the other side!

In this situation where we don't know the opponent's lineup, we shouldn't start a fight no matter how hard we think about it, right?

But Bai Ye and Raftan obviously don't think so.

No one knew how they reached a tacit understanding, but one of them had already started drawing magic circles and placing magic stones on the ground, while the other one was on the high ground in the cave summoning one light soldier after another to build her own army.

It only took them about five minutes to set up various ambushes in various places in the cave. They looked like they were ready for a big fight. Did they really think they could defeat thousands of enemies?

While I was looking for a place to hide during the battle, I asked Bai Ye, "Hey, are you really not going to arrange a retreat? If we don't have enough people to fight later, wouldn't that be terrible?"

Bai Ye glanced at me without any sense of danger and gave me a thumbs-up. "The terrain of this cave is easy to defend and difficult to attack. There is only one entrance. We can't escape and they can't attack. If they want to prolong the battle, I will slowly assemble a space portal here to return to the outside of the forest. Besides, based on their scouts' combat effectiveness, they should not be very strong as a whole."

"Then why don't we run now?" I asked worriedly.

Raftan answered on behalf of Bai Ye: "If we want to capture Dosor alive and obtain information about the treasure, now is our best chance to strike the enemy. As long as they enter the cave together, we can launch the general attack we have prepared for a long time and inflict heavy damage on them."

I looked at the magic traps gradually disappearing on the floor and asked, "But will the other party just come and die? From Gran's confession, they already know that we have a necromancer. Maybe they will show up with a whole team of paladins and priests. When that happens, Bai Ye, I think you will be purified by a lot of holy light."

It’s a pity that Bai Ye didn’t listen to any of my concern and suggestions.

She just raised her hand, tapped my forehead hard, and pointed at a big rock at the back of the cave: "Don't make noises to us if you're not in the know. I said we'll win, and we'll win. Even if we lose, with you here, I'll make sure everyone retreats safely. If a fight breaks out later, you and Xiaoban can stay here and act cute to attract hatred from the enemy."

"..."

I could only hold Xiaoban in my arms and sit on the big rock, then...

Thinking about how to be cute on the battlefield?

Damn it! The goblin clan has such a damn suicidal mentality.

So, let's think about what our poster girl can do in battle, right?
