Then he put on a hood, a face mask and casual clothes, and led Hedge to the stables outside the city gate.

After setting up Hei Qi, Ye Chen walked to the gate of Baishuang City alone.

Two tall guards stationed at the city gate, armed with single-shot rifles, quickly blocked Ye Chen's way, telling him that anyone entering the city would need to go through inspection, so he must show his true face.

However, Ye Chen didn't follow their instructions, instead he quickly stuffed something into each of the two guards' hands.

It was the gold coin with the highest face value among the circulating currencies used by the Hoarfrost.

The two guards glanced at each other, then looked behind them and ignored the other companions on their side, then snorted at Ye Chen and asked, "Are you bribing us?"

Yechen smiled and replied in a low Baishuang language: "I have scars on my face, I'm very ugly, I don't want people to see them, please forgive me."

When the words fell, he stuffed another gold coin into the hands of the two guards.

"Cough! Okay, you can go." The two guards coughed symbolically, then made way for Ye Chen.

Every time Ye Chen entered the city in the past, he basically had to go through a negotiation similar to this.

However, although this White Frost City is the only big city on this land, the internal management of the guards is not very good. There is a stench of corruption everywhere. Therefore, it is basically not difficult to bribe the guards to enter the city. A gold coin will do.

Anyway, every time Lyle provided Yechen with the funds, Yechen couldn't spend it. He didn't know where Lyle got these inexhaustible money, and Lyle never got it. The idea of ​​explaining this to him, just works, no more questions.

In this way, Ye Chen, who is a human, successfully infiltrated Baishuang City.

On the spacious street, all kinds of hoarfrost people come and go, and Ye Chen looks at the tallest mansion in the center of the city through the gap between the buildings.

It was a huge and imposing mansion like a palace. Even if it was separated by a dozen streets, Yechen could feel its luxury and nobility even if it was separated by a dozen streets. It was the residence of the lord of Baishuang City.

However, after confirming the location of the prey, the first thing the boy did was turn his head and walked into the alley behind him, towards the largest and most complex tavern in White Frost City.

As for how to complete the third trial, Ye Chen had already drawn up the prototype of the plan in his mind, but before implementing it, he had to collect information on the lord.

Therefore, places like taverns, which have always been mixed and gathered all kinds of gossip, are naturally the best places for Yechen to explore information.

The teenager hopes that he can get a lot of gains from it, thereby increasing the success rate of the hunting plan to the greatest extent, so as to draw a neat end to his final trial in this hidden area of ​​eternal winter.

Chapter 0024 White Frost City

The tavern in the corner of White Frost City is full of people and noisy.

Although the specifications here are not top-notch in White Frost City, the flow of people is the largest.

In this tavern, there will never be a shortage of down-and-out poor ghosts, rich men looking for an affair, and villains thinking about stealthy things, and places like this where fish and dragons are mixed are often the easiest places to find all kinds of rare and rare information.

Seeing this, Yechen ignored the shouts of the drunks at the door, walked quickly into the lobby of the tavern, sat at the corner of the bar, dropped a few silver coins, and ordered a glass of the most expensive wine in the store.

The boss glanced at the guest who was covering his face, didn't say much, and pushed the drink directly in front of Yechen, but Yechen ignored the glass of drink, instead grabbed the rough hand of the boss, and stuffed a white wine into it. Frost gold coins.

"I want to get some information about the lord." Ye Chen whispered to the boss immediately after handing over the gold coins.

The owner of the tavern accepted the gold coin with a happy expression at first, but when he heard that the person Yechen was trying to inquire about was actually the lord of the city, his expression froze immediately, and he immediately returned the gold coin.

"This kind of thing...you should find someone else to inquire about it!"

But Yechen pushed back the boss's hand, and stuffed several gold coins into it one after another.

The boss lowered his head and looked at the five golden coins in his hand, his brows furrowed, as if he was engaged in a fierce psychological struggle.

Finally, when Ye Chen handed over five gold coins again, the boss's psychological defense was finally broken.

With a greedy expression on his face, he swiftly put ten gold coins in his pocket, then turned his head to look around.

After confirming that no one was listening, the boss immediately took Yechen to a hidden and quiet warehouse in the tavern.

"What do you want to inquire about Lord Showalus...?"

The boss asked nervously, although according to the unwritten rules of the tavern, he should not ask the guests the motives for inquiring about the information, but since the object is the lord, then things can't be mixed up.

After all, here, Xiaovarus is not only the lord of the city of hoarfrost, but also the king of the whole kingdom of hoarfrost.

If Yechen intends to conspire against Xiaovarus, then if he is caught and the guards track down the boss, then the boss will have to be executed together with Yechen...

However, Ye Chen also saw the boss's worries, and quickly gave his own explanation in a kind tone.

"Hehe, don't worry, I come from a certain village outside the city. I entered Baishuang City this time just to discuss business with the lord..."

"Because I'm from out of town, I don't know much about Chauveurs, so it's hard to figure out how much bargaining power I have in subsequent talks."

"Since you are also a businessman, boss, you should understand what I mean?"

Leaning against the brick wall of the warehouse, Yechen explained with a smile, his words and deeds really revealed a sophisticated and treacherous temperament that only belongs to businessmen.

The boss glanced at Yechen, although he felt that Yechen's attire was not very suitable for a businessman, but the ten gold coins in his pocket now proved that Yechen was really rich, so naturally it was possible You have the capital to negotiate business with the lord.

"Since this is the case, what do you want to know about him?" The boss accepted Yechen's statement and returned to the topic.

"Well... just give me a brief account of his background, personality traits, and excellence." Ye Chen shrugged his shoulders and made his own request.

The boss nodded hilariously. He was short-handed and soft-hearted. Since Ye Chen was willing to pay ten gold coins, he would be very happy even if he was asked to speak out.

Under the boss's miscellaneous narration, Ye Chen learned a lot of information immediately.

The position of the lord of Xiaovalus was inherited from the previous Patriarch of Xiaovalus. The throne of Baishuang people's civilization has been controlled by their family for a hundred years. His character traits are no different from the past lords of Baishuang City. They are equally power-hungry, lustful, fond of wealth, domineering and arrogant... just a typical image of a wealthy lord.

"As for his excellence... well... it should be that he can control people's hearts very well..."

"Under the rule of Lord Xiaovarus, the law and order situation in Baishuang City is much better than when the previous lords were in power...Although the situation in the city is not very good now, Lord Xiaovarus visits the city every few months. There will be a speech in the heart of the city, and its content inspires and satisfies us every time."

"And this also means that for more than ten years, the people at the bottom of Baishuang City have not had any riots or rebellions. The only problem this year is that a death row prisoner escaped... On this point, Xiao Valu Si is much more powerful than the previous lords."

The boss crossed his arms and told the information he knew.

"Controlling people's hearts... Speech... Is he eloquent?" Yechen rolled his eyes and asked immediately.

"Sir Xiaovarus's eloquence...is not necessarily very good...but when I listen to his speeches, I always feel that Xiaovarus's voice is very pleasant, which makes people feel very comfortable, perhaps because he is born It must be because of a good voice." The boss scratched his thinning hair, expressing his views on the lord.

"Is the voice..."

Ye Chen's eyes sank, and then he looked at the boss and continued to ask: "Then I want to know one last thing, has there been any strange changes in the past few years? For example, he often stays at home and rarely goes out to show his face. Category……"

The boss's expression changed after hearing this, and he subconsciously nodded in response: "This is indeed true... Lord Xiaovalus used to like to hold banquets very much. After returning, he no longer had this interest. Apart from attending the speeches in the city once every few months, Lord Showalus rarely showed his face in front of the public... he often stayed in his mansion, and he didn't know how busy he was. What……"

Speaking of this, the boss glanced around, and after confirming the absolute concealment of the warehouse, he leaned into Yechen's ear and began to mutter in a low voice.

"I shouldn't have said that, but since the guest gave you so much money, let me mention it for now..."

"Although the residents of Baishuang City dare not say it publicly, there has long been a rumor circulating behind their backs, that Lord Showalus secretly has a hobby of studying corpses... because there are often cargo carriages transported to the Lord in the middle of the night. mansion, and someone has peeked into its contents...it is filled with rotting corpses of prisoners..."

"Of course, this is just a rumor. No one can confirm it, and no one dares to confirm it... That's all I can say."

After hearing this, Ye Chen didn't ask any more questions, and after nodding his thanks to the boss, he quickly left the tavern.

Looking at his back, the boss felt a vague uneasiness in his heart, so he had to drink down the glass of wine that Ye Chen had ordered but left untouched, in order to quickly calm his anxiety.

Chapter 0025 The Lord Chaovarus

After Ye Chen left the tavern, he walked through the bustling streets and strode into the wealthy area of ​​Baishuang City.

There is a vast manor in this area, and the grand mansion standing in the center of the manor is the home of the lord Sevalus.

Ye Chen walked to the door of the manor, and there were two well-armed guards holding muskets in front of the door. Ask about Ye Chen's purpose.

"I have something to discuss with the lord, and I want to meet him." Facing the guarding guard, Ye Chen's tone was very relaxed, and he didn't take their hostility to heart at all.

"Are you looking for Lord Xiaovarus? Yes, but you have to take off your mask before that. We won't inform suspicious elements who don't even show their faces." One of the guards stared fiercely. Staring at Ye Chen, then warned.

"Sorry, I have a scar on my face, so I don't want anyone other than the lord to see my face, please forgive me." Ye Chen chuckled and handed out the gold coins to the guard.

Who knows, this time the other party didn't take this trick, just waved the gold coin and flew it to the ground.

"Who do you think of our lord's guards? Hurry up and take off the mask!" The two guards scolded angrily. It seemed that they were completely different from the sloppy and corrupt city gate guards. They were loyal to Lord Chauveurs. So don't eat the money temptation of Ye Chen.

"No." Ye Chen shrugged and refused decisively.

"Do you know what you're talking about? We are the personal guards of Lord Shavarus. In the city of White Frost, you have to do whatever we want you to do! Now, quickly take off that damn mask for me—! "

Another guard yelled irritably, and stretched out his hand to roughly pull off Ye Chen's mask.

However, Ye Chen just turned his body sideways, then avoided the opponent's arm, and then reached out and grabbed the doorman's throat directly.

The faint power of Ao Ling spread out at Ye Chen's fingertips, pressing down on the guard's carotid artery. Before he could fight back, he instantly lost his ability to resist, and his expression immediately became hideous and painful.

The other guard turned pale when he saw this, and immediately raised his musket, ready to shoot at Ye Chen.

However, Ye Chen took out the left hand of the revolver, but pulled the trigger faster than the guard, and the bronze bullet accurately hit the musket in the guard's hand, causing it to shatter on the spot.

"what!?"

The guard looked at the broken gun in his hand and was dumbfounded, while Ye Chen looked at the remaining guard while pinching the neck of the original guard.

"Hurry up and tell the lord that the messenger from the abyss has come to visit him... Otherwise, I'll kill this rude man!" Yechen ordered in a serious tone.

"Well……"

Seeing that he seemed to have nothing to do with the mysterious man in front of him, the guard had to open and close the iron gate of the manor in a panic, running all the way towards the mansion in the manor.

Ye Chen, on the other hand, threw the unconscious guard aside, poured the power of Ao Ling into the soles of his feet, jumped, and immediately passed the tall iron gate and stepped on the marble floor of the manor.

The young man walked towards the mansion with a calm expression on his face. On the way, he encountered many servants who were working, and they all cast curious and doubtful glances at him, but the young man ignored it and just concentrated on the location of the hunting target.

He walked through the wide and flat stone and brick avenues of the manor, and finally reached the gate of the water spray courtyard in front of the mansion.

Waiting for Yechen in the courtyard was a whole row of the lord's personal guards holding single-shot rifles and ready to fire at any time. There were more than 20 of them. It seemed that they were summoned because of the tip-off from the fleeing guard just now.

"Raise your hands quickly! Otherwise, we'll shoot!" A tall hoarfrost who was the captain of the Guards shouted angrily at Ye Chen with a gun.

"I have something to ask the lord, if you don't want to get hurt, get out of the way." Ye Chen stood there, threatening everyone in a cold tone, as if he didn't take them seriously at all.

"court death!"

The captain of the Guards was furious after hearing this, and he fired at Ye Chen without hesitation.

And Ye Chen covered his face with the cloak, sprinted at full speed under the outbreak of the power of Ao Ling, with the cushioning effect of the golden black canopy on his body, he directly fired the bullet of the musket, and ran towards the captain of the Guards.

The remaining members of the Guards were taken aback and fired in unison, but the bullets fired were either dodged by Ye Chen or bounced off by the cloak.

A few of the bullets that wiped Ye Chen's cheeks could not even leave bloodstains on the surface of his skin.

The terrifying speed and strong defense made De Yechen easily break through the hail of bullets and rushed to the front of the captain of the Guards.

The latter was shocked to the extreme. He wanted to throw his spear and draw his sword, but Ye Chen, who took a quick step, directly hit him with an uppercut, which perfectly hit his chin.

thump.

Accompanied by a muffled sound, the captain was immediately sent flying about ten meters into the air by Ye Chen, and everyone was stunned and dumbfounded.

Spitting blood, the delirious captain flew over the highest point, then fell to the ground vertically with his head down, but Yechen grabbed his collar in time to prevent the captain from breaking his spine and dying on the spot .

"Okay, if you don't want to become like him, get out of the way." Ye Chen picked up the fainting captain and issued a final warning to the remaining guards.

But to his surprise, even after seeing the captain's tragic appearance, everyone still did not flinch at all. They just stayed in line and stepped back with guns, as if they wanted to guard the gate of the lord's mansion.

"..."

Ye Chen looked at what he saw in front of him, and he first felt that the guards were really loyal to the lord, but after careful observation, he suddenly found that every guard holding a musket had a uniform expressionless face .

They were clearly shocked by the scene where they punched Captain Fei just now, but after the blink of an eye, their expressions were all calm as before. The difference between before and after has changed a little too unnaturally.

From this point of view, the lord's arcane magic is indeed...

Ye Chen thought of this, the door of the mansion was suddenly pushed open by a figure, followed by a majestic scolding, which immediately broke the confrontation between the guards and Ye Chen.

"Give me your guns! Don't be rude to VIPs!"

Ye Chen looked along the source of the sound, and saw a middle-aged white frost man with a pale and thin face in a gorgeous robe standing at the door.

After hearing his voice, the guards immediately bowed their heads to Ye Chen to admit their mistake, and then retreated to both sides of the gate in a neat pace, standing in a formation to welcome the guests.

And the slender middle-aged Hoarfrost walked out of the Guards slowly and nodded to Ye Chen with a smile.

Feeling the noble temperament exuding from his whole body, and listening to the unique tone of his voice, Ye Chen immediately realized that this person should be the lord of Baishuang City, the king of the Baishuang people, and the hunter of his last trial. The target of the kill - Showalus, that's right.

"My guards are sloppy and don't know how to adapt. If you feel offended, I am deeply sorry and will make amends, so I hope you can forgive me."
