Chapter 167 Trustworthy Partner

"Sir, it seems that the steak you want is a little trouble. Please go to the kitchen with me to see..."

The young bartender came out of the backstage and said to Surman, who was sitting in front of the stage and was tasting the wine alone.

"good."

Surman nodded slightly, but couldn't help but complain in his heart, the excuses you were looking for were too bad...

When he got up and followed the bartender all the way to the kitchen, the two of them did not stop and continued to move forward.

Facing this scene, Surman was not surprised at all. He followed the bartender from the kitchen door and turned into a fully enclosed alley. Then, the bartender took off two horse lanterns from the door, and also gave Surman one, and continued to lead the way ahead.

Along the way, both of them had no words in a tacit understanding.

This atmosphere lasted until the bartender stopped in front of him. They stood in front of the cabin. The bartender stepped forward and knocked on the door. It was very rhythmic. About half a minute later, the people in the house established their identity as bartender, and then opened the door and let him in.

Surman followed in and found two people wearing half-faced masks sitting upright beside the table in the house, one man and one woman.

Judging from their appearance and figure, as well as the chin of the half-faced mask, they are not old. The men are about thirty years old, while the women are younger, probably in their early twenties.

After taking Surman to the cabin, the bartender stepped back and closed the door casually.

The two should be the liaison officers of [Sleepless Eye]. I don’t know how many people they have in the Cangxue Mountains... Surman silently judged, and on the surface, he sat down relaxedly.

Even his chin was slightly raised and he still maintained a proud attitude, like the real "Dubonna".

"Dubonna, a rare genius among the Boya tribe, can be called the first person in the new generation among the branches of the Sky Eagle bloodline." The strange woman wearing a half-faced mask spoke first.

The man next to him did not speak, as if this time the contact should be mainly a strange woman.

"I've been too proud, the Boya tribe has more than just the blood of the sky eagle..." When Surman heard the praise, he imitated Duponna's tone, seemingly modest, but in fact he replied proudly to the other party.

This tone is like the first-place student in the grade exam when he was a child. When others asked about his grades, he would humbly say, "There is nothing to be proud of, and the whole grade is ranked xxx" and so on. Such Versailles' tone is very consistent with Dubonne's personality and is also the main impression he left on [Sleepless Eye].

Sure enough, when Surman finished saying this, the strange man next to him curled his lips, as if he had some thoughts.

However, he remained silent. It seemed that this contact was indeed dominated by that woman.

"Anyway, the big hit of this golden trial is you... Duponna, as a member of the [Sleepless Eye], we will help you eliminate all your opponents." The woman with a half-faced mask spoke and finally got to the point: "Of course, eliminating other people is also our main goal. In terms of action interests, we are completely consistent, and you don't have to worry about our sincerity."

"Then how should I cooperate with you?" Surman asked very well.

"It's very simple. When you contact us in advance, you also learned about the situation in advance... so I won't talk nonsense..." The woman with a half-faced mask reached into her arms and took out a special badge from it, with a mysterious symbol engraved on it.

With Surman's knowledge, the mysterious symbol on the badge is roughly related to the craftsman profession, so this is probably not a contact tool, but a special soul tool.

"This is the trap we set. What you have to do is very simple, which is to introduce all your competitors into the trap we set up." The woman with a half-faced mask explained, with the specific function of this badge: "Of course, you also know that at the top of the Cangxue Mountains, the city-state left over from the Second Era... No, it should be called 'ruins'."

"In the ruins of the city-state once called [Yelmund], you will lose your sense of direction. The mist that covers your vision is much worse than the gathering point at the foot of the mountain and the mine area on the mountainside!"

"Once you go deeper into [Yelmond], the specially made lanterns on all the mountains will lose their effect."

"They will not have the ability to dispel the fog again."

Speaking of this, the woman with a half-faced mask paused slightly, and her chin was pursed tightly. It can be seen that she was also full of fear of the so-called "ruins". From this point of view, the danger of this golden trial is much higher than in previous sessions.

"That is the ever-changing dream fog, and it is also the habitat paradise for ancient monsters... Because your horse lanterns are invalid, it is difficult to determine your position in the fog. Even if I tell you, it will definitely be difficult for you to find the specific location of the trap." After saying this, the woman with a half-faced mask pointed to the special badge in Surman's hand.

"However, this badge can help you solve the problem. [Sleepless Eye] found many channels and finally got this item from a dawn craftsman. It can help you locate your own world latitude in the fog..."

"The so-called world latitude, haha, is the strange concept proposed by the Steam Church's mechanical researcher, saying that every place in the world can correspond to a latitude, and as long as you base on the latitude, you can find the corresponding location."

The woman with a half-faced mask did not forget to give Surman a page of paper, which was explained about the content about the "Latitude of the World". However, Surman had known this for a long time.

Even better than the other party, the concept of this world latitude was first proposed by the "Steam Co-Research Association", which was formed in the Second Era... At that time, it was not the Steam Co-Research Association of the Church of the Lord. It was not authoritative enough in this regard, and it was questioned by many civilized city-states. However, later, when the Steam Church was born in the early stage of the Third Era, this concept was gradually accepted.

Sure enough, reality is always so weird and fun...Surman silently complained about this little-known history.

After putting away the pages, Surman pretended not to understand and asked the woman with a half-faced mask several related questions, perfectly playing the role of "Dubonna". Finally, the two stood up and sent him to the door.

The two looked at Surman and raised the lantern and disappeared into the mist in the alley. After a moment, the young woman turned around and whispered to her companion: "Can the bait we arranged attract the attention of the Silver Moon Church?"

"Don't worry."

The man who had never spoken finally replied softly in his hoarse voice-

"Dubonna's strength is not too strong, and he has not reached the third level yet...it is just within our control."
