Just at this moment, there were sudden knocks on the door. Virgil walked forward and opened the door.

A security guard was standing at the door. He looked at Virgil and Litt, and then said, "Someone is looking for you two at the door. He said he was sent by the higher-ups."

"I see." Virgil nodded. "Bring that person in."

"Okay." The security guard then left the room.

Two minutes later, the doctor appeared at the office door.

His white suit tie was now stained with a hint of red.

"Hello, both of you." He said this, walked into the office and closed the door. "I was sent by Master Orson."

"Master Orson's men?"

"You can put it that way." The doctor nodded. "Aren't you going to investigate the mastermind behind the arrest of Master Leete's parents? That's why I'm here."

"You have information?" Hearing this, Li Te's eyes widened.

"Well, a little bit." The doctor said this and looked at the two people present.

"If I'm not mistaken, you are Master Litt, right?" The doctor pointed at Litt who was sitting at the desk.

"Ah."

"So, you are Orson's other man, Virgil?"

"Yes."

"Okay, okay, I've wanted to meet you for a long time, Mr. Virgil." The doctor said this, walked forward and extended his hand to Virgil.

"As both of us work under Master Orson, I think it's necessary for us to get to know each other."

"You can call me doctor."

Virgil held out his hand and shook it with the doctor's.

"Are you the doctor?" Virgil then said with some surprise.

"Well, has Master Orson ever mentioned me to you?" Hearing this, the doctor looked at him with a smile.

"Yes. When we were surrounding the group of mercenaries, one of them escaped. Master Orson told me, did you catch him?"

"Yes." The doctor did not deny it. "I caught it."

"So, what information did you get from him?" At this time, Litt on the side asked anxiously.

"It's not any particularly important information." The doctor said. "I met Master Orson at a restaurant at noon today. We had lunch together. I told Master Orson the information and he asked me to come to you."

Afterwards, he told Lit and Virgil all the information he knew.

Of course, he deliberately concealed the information that Orson and the Killing Angel had just obtained today.

Regarding the Killing Angel, Orson didn't tell him what they talked about, which proved that he wanted to handle the matter himself. Therefore, he didn't plan to create trouble and let Lit find the Killing Angel in advance.

After the doctor finished speaking, he found a sofa and sat down at random, then crossed his legs generously, as if he regarded this place as his own territory.

"Okay, now that you have the information, what are you going to do?" The doctor looked at Lit and Virgil and smiled with an ambiguous smile. "I don't recommend going to the Killing Angels. They are just middlemen, and you won't be able to get anything out of them."

"If we forcefully ask, we might get kicked out."

“……” Li Te sat at his desk, thinking.

She briefly sorted out the information she had just obtained in her mind, and after thinking for a few minutes, she looked up at the doctor.

"Doctor, since you are sent by Orson, could you please do me a favor?"

"I was originally sent by Master Orsen to help you, so why bother me?"

The doctor said this and shrugged.

Seeing the doctor like this, Li Te felt relieved.

"Um, can I ask how good your fighting skills are?" Litt asked.

"Not to mention the higher ones, at least I can handle those below level six."

"Okay." Lit nodded after hearing that.

Then she looked at Virgil and the doctor and told them her plan.

A few minutes later, Virgil looked surprised after hearing Lit's plan.

"Master Lit, this is too dangerous. If I put you in danger, Master Orson will blame me!"

The doctor on the other side smiled.

"Isn't this plan interesting?"

"In short, I have made up my mind. This is the only way to find out the mastermind behind this."

"..." Virgil was silent, then he sighed and nodded. "In that case, I can't refuse you, Master Lit."

"But what if something goes wrong?"

"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing." Li Te said this with a smile.

"Ok."

"What about you, Doctor? Your task in this mission isn't easy either."

"It's okay, just leave it to me." The doctor said this and laughed. "Risks are often accompanied by extremely high returns, right?"

……

That night, Litt walked on the street alone. She walked back and forth in a remote street, as if waiting for something.

Then, several strong men came over, one of whom looked drunk.

"Hey, that one in front, is it a girl?" The drunk man pointed at Lit's back and spoke.

That wasn't enough, the drunk even started whistling.

Lit turned around and stared at them with fear on his face.

"Who... who are you?"

"Burp... She's pretty good-looking, but I don't know why she's wearing men's clothes. Is she a woman disguised as a man?" The drunk man burped and then pointed at Lit and started commenting on him.

"Haha, you don't know, this kind of beauties in men's clothing are popular in the empire now." A person next to the drunkard said. "These girls, even though they look decent in men's clothes, are actually just looking for customers who need them."

"After all, what decent girl would come here at this time of night?"

"Burp...you're right." The drunk nodded and gave a thumbs up to the person next to him.

Then he turned and looked at Lit.

"Well... little girl, are you willing to go home with me and play?"

Having said this, he took a few steps closer.

Lit could already smell the stinky smell of alcohol on him. She pinched her nose and looked at him with disgust.

Then he stomped on the other person's foot and turned and ran away.

This kick immediately sobered up the drunkard whose nerves were numbed by alcohol. He stared at the direction where Litt ran away with a red face.

He is very famous in the nearby streets, and normally no one would dare to disrespect him like this.

As he was thinking this, his brain didn't react for a moment and he subconsciously chased after him.

The strong men behind him saw the drunk chasing after him and hurriedly followed him.

"Okay, you little girl just like to play this kind of chasing game, right?" The drunk man ran while talking to himself angrily, not caring whether Litt could hear him or not, and insulted her with dirty words.

"Just wait for me, when I catch you, you'll be in trouble!"

The drunk man uttered these harsh words and walked faster and faster.

As he exercised, his drunkenness gradually dissipated and he became sober, but his desire to catch Leeteuk remained unchanged.

The drunk man is incredibly fast and it seems his strength should not be underestimated.

Even though Litt used magic, the distance between him and the strong man was gradually shortened.

It was not until Litt ran into Oak Street and saw the Orchid Tavern that the drunkard gradually slowed down his pace.

"My goodness, this woman led me here?" The drunk said this and looked at the surrounding environment with a shudder.

At this time, there was no one else on Oak Street except Litt and the drunk, and the few strong men who had just followed the drunk did not catch up.

The reason is very simple. The strong man is at level seven, while those people are only at level four at best. In terms of speed, they really can't catch up.

Of course, the more important reason is that those people were stopped halfway.

The strongman Bell, who was taught a lesson by Leet in the slums, has joined Leet's team. At this moment, he is leading a dozen gang members to stop all the strong men who are about to catch up with the drunk.

There was a reason why Lit chose him as his target.

The opponent was the leader of the Iron Wolf Mercenaries, Mudrick.

After running for a while, Litt stopped and turned back to stare at Mudrick.

Seeing this, Mudrick also stopped.

"Girl, are you tired of running? Don't you want to run anymore?" He said this, looking at Litt and smiling.

"What's your meaning of bringing me here?" he continued, and then slowly approached Litt.

"You are the leader of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, right?" Litt looked at Mudrick without any fear, as if the three-level gap between them did not exist.

"It's me." Mudrick shrugged and spread his hands in acknowledgement.

"Among the mercenary groups with the word 'wolf' in their names, we Iron Wolf are number one, and no one dares to claim to be second."

"How about it? Do you want to hang out with me more after hearing my name?" Mudrick said with a smile. "It doesn't matter. As long as you agree to be with me now, I will let go of your ignorant subordinates and love you well."

When Li Te heard this, he just got goose bumps and felt nauseous.

Orson asked himself to go out and see the world, but the men he met were still like this.

However, Litt had already heard the other party's hidden meaning.

Fortunately, she stopped pretending.

"I'm sorry, I'm a man." Li Te said this and directly "revealed his cards". "Do you remember that you received a mission a while ago?"

"Go to the Dukedom of Antica and kidnap a couple. The husband is called Andre and the wife is called Jenny."

"Ah? It seems to be true." Mudrick nodded after hearing this. "So? My Iron Wolf Mercenary Group receives so many missions every month. Do you think I would specifically remember two unknown little people?"

"Of course I know you won't." Lit smiled and shook his head. "But, in addition to being ordinary citizens, they also have another identity, that is, the second son of the Duke of Antica, Lit's adoptive parents."

"If you carry this heavy label, you are no longer a nobody, right?"

"Oh, that's true." Mudrick was not surprised to hear Litt say that. "So, you are Litt?"

Leete nodded.

"Okay, if you're willing to pay a high price, I don't mind letting him go."

"How much did the other party pay?"

"Thirty thousand gold coins." Mudrick said.

"I'm sorry, I don't have that much money."

"Also, those mercenaries you sent out probably won't come back. I remember there was one who seemed to be at level six, quite powerful. But unfortunately, he betrayed you before he died." As Lit said this, he provoked Mudrick.

"Then don't tell me so much." Mudrick's face turned cold as he said this.

He was indeed angry.

"You are making fun of me on purpose. Even if you were a man, I would still kill you today!" Then he rushed forward and punched Litt.

At this moment, Virgil rushed out from the shadows and stabbed at Mudrick with a sword.

Seeing this, Mudrick snorted coldly, quickly changed direction, dodged the sword, and then punched Virgil.

Virgil didn't have time to retract his sword, so he could only stretch out his fist and punch Mudrick.

Virgil was knocked back four or five steps by this blow, while Mudrick only retreated half a step.

"Sending a mere sixth-level person to plot against me?" Mudrick said this with a disdainful sneer.
