Chapter 333: Night exploration of the Faceless Man’s stronghold

Fang Hao's impression of mercenaries was not very good.

Whether it's through contact or hearing it from other people.

The profession of mercenaries is very similar to that of bandits.

Especially last time, the iron-blooded mercenary group escorting the 'Tavik Caravan' betrayed their employer to the bandits.

A deal was made with Grizzly Bear, who was still a bandit at the time.

The plan was to cooperate inside and outside, rob the caravan, and then divide the spoils.

Fortunately, Fang Hao discovered it in advance last time, otherwise, the entire caravan would be in danger.

Therefore, Fang Hao didn't like the profession of mercenary in his heart.

"Are missions only given to mercenary groups?" Fang Hao asked again.

The tavern owner smiled, and he could tell that Fang Hao was from out of town.

He explained: "It should be that there is a separate area at the east gate of the city, which is dedicated to issuing tasks to those mercenaries. You can go and take a look then."

The east gate of the city!

The area of Lysis City is much larger than that of Puluer City.

Moreover, every time Fang Hao comes here, he always goes to the north gate, and he has never been to the east gate.

"In the future, there won't be any adventure rewards in the tavern?" Fang Hao continued to ask.

"I'm not sure about this. It depends on what the city lord's palace said. I'm not sure about the details. I just heard the news from the drunkards when they were having fun." The boss smiled awkwardly.

"Okay, thank you boss." Fang Hao thanked him with a smile.

As a tavern owner, you are very enthusiastic towards your guests.

In order to win over some frequent customers, I will also reveal some information I heard from the gossip.

Of course, there are still a few people who talk endlessly like Vanessa.

Not long after, the food and wine were served.

The two stopped talking and started eating.

The sky is getting darker and darker.

At this time, the door of the tavern was pushed open, and a figure staggered in.

Fang Hao knew this person, he was the old Hodge who boasted about fighting vampires.

But there was still a blue bruise on his left eye, which seemed to have been a fight with someone.

Old Huoqi glanced at everyone in the tavern, and finally landed on Fang Hao and the girl with animal ears.

Burping from wine, he staggered over and said, "How about buying me a drink, young man?"

Straight to the point, no polite words.

Although Old Hodge's story is heavily boastful, the hard silver drawings can also prove that he actually fought vampires.

But Fang Hao speculated that it might be a logistics or blacksmith, rather than a front-line combatant.

This also confirmed why the location of the wound he mentioned was different every time.

Most likely, these wounds were injuries sustained by frontline members that he used to brag about.

In any case, Old Hodge's drawings played a certain role in the battle at Huiyue Highlands.

He didn't mind either and thanked the drunkard.

"Of course, how many drinks do you plan to have?" Fang Hao asked with a smile.

Old Huoqi's eyes lit up slightly, but he didn't expect Fang Hao to ask how many drinks he wanted.

"Ten cups, how about it?" Old Huoqi stared at Fang Hao, fearing that he would make the other party regret it if he said too much.

"Okay, give him 10 drinks and some appetizers." Fang Hao readily agreed.

Old Huo Qi was happy, chewing his two yellow teeth that were missing, and praised Fang Hao for his future.

The tavern owner shook his head slightly and helplessly prepared beer for Old Hodge.

It's not a good thing to have Old Hodge on his radar.

"You were in a fight with someone, why are your eyes still blue?" Fang Hao asked casually.

"Wha, what's the fight? It's just that I fell down two days ago when I was drunk. I'm not even afraid of the vampires, so I'm afraid of that woman?" Old Huo Qi argued.

"Woman?" Fang Hao was stunned.

Was he beaten by a woman?

"No, no, I mean I tripped over a woman and fell." Old Hodge explained hurriedly.

"Oh, then you should drink less in the future. This fall is not easy." Fang Hao did not expose him.

Of course, he also doubted whether the injury was caused by a grizzly bear.

Although Grizzly Bear said that he bought him twenty glasses of wine in exchange for the drawings.

But beating him up and snatching away the drawings is more in line with Grizzly Bear's character.

"How about young people, which story are you going to listen to today? I have a lot of experience, which you young people can't learn." Old Hodge showed off loudly.

He regarded Fang Hao as his admirer.

"Whatever, any paragraph will do." Fang Hao said.

Snapped!

Old Hodge threw his wine glass on the table, stood up, and began to tell the story of his dealings with the vampires, with an excited and impassioned expression.

He also described himself as brave and fearless.

…

Walking out of the tavern, it was dark.

Fang Hao looked at his watch. It was already 9pm.

Old Hodge still had three glasses of beer left, and was still in the tavern, talking about his experience of dealing with vampires.

Go straight back to your residence.

The house was brightly lit, and Vanessa had arranged for a maid to clean the room for Fang Hao and An Jia.

The original bedding was replaced with new ones.

Fang Hao gave An Jia instructions and returned directly to the room.

11pm.

Fang Hao opened his backpack and took out the skeleton inside.

After casting Divine Presence, he possessed the body of the skeleton gray bird and flew towards the outside of the city along the open window.

From Lai Gou's mouth, Fang Hao learned the locations of three faceless men.

The first place was a manor on the western outskirts of the city.

According to Lai Gou's description, the owner of this manor is one of the Faceless Men, and there is a hidden secret passage in the house of the manor where the Faceless Men gather and where they interrogate people.

The manor is not big in size, but the shape looks very good.

You can vaguely see the personnel standing guard and the secret sentry hiding in the dark.

Fang Hao flew around the manor and got in through the open grid window.

The building was dark.

You can vaguely hear breathing coming from several rooms.

Fang Hao continued to search and soon found the hidden secret passage.

Follow the secret passage all the way down and arrive at the underground space.

This is in stark contrast to the luxurious manor.

It was dim and damp, with a faint smell of blood.

Fang Hao checked the iron cells in the secret room and saw a man hanging in one of the iron cells.

The man had been tortured and hung there like a dead man.

Only the slight rise and fall of his chest proved that this person was still alive.
