Every day, Xiao Zhi continued his work while wondering if an official from any country on the mainland had been assassinated.

Perhaps it is the benefit of being a clerk. Whenever he completes a job, he will receive an experience reward, which can barely fill the emptiness that he feels he is a social animal when he is obviously playing games.

During this period of time, the workload of the trade area has exploded, causing Xiao Zhi's experience to skyrocket, and his current level has reached 215.

But he didn't want to continue to enjoy the happiness of this upgrade at all, and every day he hoped that an unjustly killed dignitary from another country could be sent to take over his job. It's a pity that those who are currently favored by them are still alive and kicking, and there is probably still a long time before the end of their lives.

No way, Xiao Zhi can only continue to drag his senior brother into the water, Wei Di has helped a lot in secret, and he is about to become a non-staff of Hessen. In exchange, Xiao Zhi promised to collect more and more powerful Hessian gossip for his senior brother.

The arrival of the knights also solved the problem of public security in the trade area. As long as they stood in front of the contradictory sides with expressionless faces, the two sides who might be fighting suddenly became quiet as chickens.

Probably this is the Hessian law of public security management.

Xiao Zhi is working in his office in the trade area.

Suddenly, Xiao Zhi received Teague's contact, just as he was the only one in the office at the moment, Xiao Zhi directly took out Teague's communication card.

Teague's voice sounded pleasant: "Mr. Seven, how are you doing?"

Xiao Zhi: "Are you still alive... is there anything wrong with you?"

Teague: "It seems that you are in a bad mood recently, but I am here to report the good news to you. I hope you will feel better after listening to it. The batch of potions I prepared before has been cleared, and it belongs to your income. Ten million gold shells, when are you going to come and take them?"

When Xiao Zhi heard this, this was really good news.

Unexpectedly, there are so many. Teague is really talented in being a profiteer. The profit of being a profiteer is so great, no wonder the popularity of profiteers in the Xiyue tribe.

But he was too busy right now, and he couldn't let him leave Hessen with ten million yuan. Xiao Zhi said, "I'm very busy right now. I'll leave it with you first. I'll find you when I have time."

There was a smile in Teague's voice: "You are really at ease with me."

Xiao Zhi said nonchalantly, "You can also take the money and try it out."

Teague: "Forget it, being hunted down by the Asanasi is a very scary thing, especially a rich and powerful Asanasi like you."

Teague knew that Xiao Zhi had harvested more than 100 million yuan at the Xinghai auction. If he dared to run for 10 million yuan, maybe some of the 100 million yuan would become his wanted bounty.

Moreover, seeing Xiao Zhi make a move, Teague didn't want to be his target at all.

Xiao Zhi hung up with Teague and resumed his work.

After a while, there was a sudden commotion in the trade area outside. Xiao Zhi put down his work, put on the white gauze he used to cover his head, and went out to check the situation, don't let someone fight again.

When he went out to take a look, he found that the source of the commotion was quite familiar to him.

It's Alifa.

Alifa was hovering over the trade area, flying low, and the flapping of its wings created a gust of wind in the trade area. Many people have seen the Hessian lord ride on Alpha's back, and they also know that this is the exclusive mount of the Hessian lord.

"The lord's mount!"

"Where's the lord? Has the lord come to inspect!!!?"

"No, I don't seem to see the lord..."

"Then what is it for?"

"Difficult, could it be... it's hungry..."

While the crowd watched Alifa, they couldn't help discussing below. They squeezed forward curiously, and retreated in fear. Naturally, there was a commotion.

Xiao Zhi is also surprised, what is Alifa doing here? Did it find something interesting?

At this time, Alpha also saw Xiao Zhi.

It swooped down suddenly and swooped down in Xiao Zhi's direction. The huge body cast a large shadow, scaring the surrounding onlookers away from the scope of the government affairs center.

With a bang, Alpha landed in front of Xiao Zhi.

"Goo!" Alifa said to Xiao Zhi.

It looked different from usual, its tone was much shorter, and it didn't flick its tail coquettishly like usual. Instead, it scratched the ground with its front legs, as if it was a little anxious.

Xiao Zhi couldn't help frowning and whispered, "Did something happen?"

Alfa nodded.

Xiao Zhi glanced at the government affairs center and said to Alifa, "Alifa, I'm very busy right now. If the toy is lost, you can ask Lance for help."

Alifa shook his head sharply, as if he wanted to describe something, but found that he had no language talent, so he could only lean down and motioned for Xiao Zhi to climb on his back.

Seeing this posture, it seemed that something unusual had happened, Xiao Zhi was helpless, and could only float on Alifa's back. This time, there was no Frost brand windshield, so he could only hold on tighter.

Xiao Zhi rode Alpha and left the trade area with speed.

The onlookers watched their distant backs and couldn't help but discuss it again.

"Who is that person who just came out?"

"You don't know yet? I knew it just by looking at the dress. It must be the secretary. His fines almost took off my big pants."

"Why can the secretary sit on the mount of the Hessian lord? Isn't the legendary bone dragon exclusive to the lord?"

"Yeah...why?"

"I heard that the current Hesse is basically the one who has the final say. In the past, he said he was fined, and he was fined; the trade area was also built when he said it; , the plan for the transportation network was handed in decades ago, and the lord never passed it, but as soon as the secretary said it, he passed it directly!"

"Hey, why does this sound a bit weird..."

"You mean...they..."

"I don't know anything, it's just said that this person was a Xiyue clan before his death. You know what the Xiyue clan looks like."

"Could it be that he doesn't show his face because only the lord can see it?"

"Hey, let him be in power again, let him ride his own mount, and come to pick him up specially, the lord can spoil him enough."

"I'm so envious..."

"What's there to envy, don't you just rely on your face to eat?"

"Just be sour... If you have the ability, you also have a good-looking face, and then stand in front of the lord to see if he will give you a bite to eat, or give you a cold heart with a sword."

"Cut, if this goes on, Hesse will be finished sooner or later."

"Damn, this guy dares to say that Hesse is finished! Beat him!!!"

"Dare to look down on us! Living people are idiots!!!"

"If it's Hessian, give it to me!!!"

A new round of riots began in the trade zone.

Xiao Zhi was taken by Alifa and flew all the way back to the Skeleton Palace.

Alifa stopped at a certain position in the White Bone Hall, raised his head and pointed to the window of a certain room, motioning Xiao Zhi to take a look in the room.

Xiao Zhi floated up a little strangely, and went to the window to look in.

The room was filled with cobweb-like threads. The threads looked very bright, not like the reflection of the material, but more like the light emanating from itself.

These bright threads take up almost the entire room, and in their midst, something seems to be encased in them. The thing in the middle was so tightly wrapped that it almost became a cocoon, making it hard to see what it was.

"Goo!" Alifa urged.

Thinking that this is the White Bone Hall, Xiao Zhi suddenly had a bad guess.

He reached out and pushed the window, and found that the window seemed to be locked from the inside and could not be pushed at all. Xiao Zhi couldn't care less, and a fireball blasted the window open and entered it.

Entering the room, the viewing angle is also wider than outside the window, Xiao Zhi discovered the source of these threads - the memory slate.

The memory slate is lying quietly on the table at the moment, and countless bright threads extend from the slate, which makes people feel uneasy.

Xiao Zhi leaned closer to the "cocoon" carefully, and saw a familiar black corner of his clothes.

Really Assen!

Asen stood quietly, motionless, his whole body was wrapped in silk threads, Xiao Zhi could not see his face, but he could not see any trace of his struggle, as if he had fallen into a permanent sleep.

Xiao Zhi’s heartbeat suddenly went out of order.

He suddenly took a few steps forward, trying to pull away the silk threads wrapped around Asen's body, but found that his hand just passed through the silk threads, and he couldn't touch it at all!

He tried to pull Asen again, but Xiao Zhi soon discovered that these threads seemed to be attached to Asen's body, and would change position with his movements, still wrapping tightly around him.

Suppressing the moment of panic that had surfaced in his heart, Xiao Zhi turned his head to look at the memory slate.

What he knew about the Memory Slate only existed in the data.

But the current state has never been recorded in the documents. I don't know if there are any unknown secrets to the memory slate, or if Dana did something to her cherished memory slate before she died.

But it is obvious that the current state is not right. The memory slate seems to be out of control. don't know how this state will affect Assen.

Xiao Zhi walked towards the memory slate. Since this is the source of the problem, can the problem be solved from here?

Just when he was about to come into contact with the memory slate, the threads that occupied most of the room suddenly disappeared, and the memory slate returned to its original shape.

Xiao Zhi looked towards Asen, just in time to see Asen slowly falling backwards.

Before he could think about it, he suddenly took a few steps forward and caught Asen's fallen body.

The body in his arms has the soft touch of the human body, but there is no temperature at all. Asen's eyes are tightly closed, and there is no ups and downs in his chest. It's like... dead.

Xiao Zhi was startled, and almost felt sad.

Then he suddenly realized that Assen is an undead, so this is normal...

But without all kinds of vital signs, how can he judge the state of Assen? Xiao Zhi roughly checked Asen's appearance and didn't see any scars, but Asen just couldn't wake up.

At this moment, footsteps sounded at the door.

Lance's voice sounded: "Seventeen, are you in there? Alifa came to find me and Dean, what happened?"

Since Alifa can go to them, it shows that in Alifa's heart, they are very credible people.

According to Dean's understanding of Alifa, Alifa should have a good relationship with him. After Yuanhai and his party, the relationship between Alifa and Lance has improved a lot. Not only did they stop fighting, but sometimes Lance could be seen playing with Alifa with toys.

Xiao Zhi motioned for them to come in by themselves.

The two entered the room and were shocked to see this situation.

Dean glanced around the door subconsciously, and after confirming that no one was there, he closed the door quickly, and then walked towards this side: "What's going on, lord?"

Xiao Zhi didn't come much earlier than them, and could only describe what he saw.

Lance and Dean looked serious, Lance didn't speak, and Dean walked over to Xiao Zhi and began to check the status of the lord.

After a while, Dean's brows furrowed: "No trauma, no trace of curse and light magic..."

Xiao Zhi asked, "Has this happened to the lord before?"

Lance shook his head: "No, the lord has never fallen."

Xiao Zhi: "Is there a doctor in the corpse palace?"

Xiao Zhi didn't have any hope for this question, because based on his observations during this period of time, the answer was no. Not only is there no corpse palace, but there are no doctors in the entire Hesse. At most, there are some pharmacists who make medicines and produce some medicines to repair the trauma of the undead.

After all, the undead can't even die, do they still need a doctor?

Sure enough, Dean said, "No."

"And..." Dean's words changed, "It's best not to spread the news of the lord's accident. According to Hesse's law, the lord is the strongest, so he can convince the public. Once he is weak... he will. It's hard to predict what will happen."

The room fell into silence, and the other two knew that he was right.

Hesse can be unified because of the absolute strength of the lord, Mu Qiang's undead will surrender to the strong, but some people may also give birth to a replacement heart when the strong is weak.

After a while.

Xiao Zhi said: "Since it's not a curse or light magic, then the problem should lie in the lord's body. What effect did the memory slate have on him, that's what happened."

Lance and Dean nodded in agreement.

The three discussed it again, Xiao Zhi said, "I'm going to find a way to rescue the lord, and you are responsible for stabilizing the situation in Hessen."

Dean hesitated: "You are alone"

Xiao Zhi nodded: "I have some friends from other races, and maybe I can get clues from them. Don't worry, I won't tell the lord's affairs. To be on the safe side, I will do it myself."

Lance and Dean looked at each other.

They have been in Hesse for hundreds of years, and they have no friends from the outside world at all, and the living people they have known have died a long time ago. They really can't help in this situation. With the prestige, there is no problem in controlling the situation.

Lance said, "Then be careful."

Dean: "Bring Alpha, it can help you fight when you are in danger, but it can also lead you to escape."

The three placed the lord in another room in the White Bone Hall. Because the bed could not be found anywhere, Lance also went out and moved a large bed back. The style was quite gorgeous, and don't know where it came from.

After laying the lord on the bed, Lance and Dean left the room.

Just as they walked near the entrance to the Hall of Bones, Lance and Dean happened to bump into someone.

Tall, with a grim expression, red eyes, and some green spots on his skin, this is another Hessian knight commander, the poisonous corpse Catril.

Catril didn't mean to say hello when he saw the two of them. He took a step to the side, intending to bypass them and move on.

"Catrier." Dean stopped him, "What are you doing with the lord?"

Catrill's footsteps paused slightly: "A dated battle."

Among the knight commanders of Hesse, there were Lance and Dean who chose to be loyal to Frost since they were defeated. Naturally, there were also those who surrendered to the power but never gave up the challenge. Catril was one of them.

Lance and Dean suddenly felt bad, and they must not let him pass.

Lance reached out his hand to stop Catrill: "It's another day, the lord is in a bad mood today and doesn't want to see anyone."

Catriller: "I knew it when I went to see him. If he wanted to do something with me, it would be fine."

Lance still didn't let go, trying to think of new excuses.

Catrier looked suspiciously at Lance: "Could it be that something happened?"

His gloomy eyes turned to the corridor behind the two of them. One hand had already held the axe at his waist, and his voice was cold: "Get out of the way, I want to go over!"

There was something dangerous brewing in the air, and a little spark could detonate.

At this time, Dean on the side suddenly chuckled: "Then you go."

As he said that, he also reached out and pressed down Lance's raised hand, and continued to look at Catrill with a smile, as if he was looking forward to seeing another joke.

This turning point made Catrill suspicious: "Are you hiding something from me?"

Dean raised his eyebrows: "Want to know?"

Catrill said impatiently: "Are you going to say it or not?"

Dean glanced at the depths of the corridor, then lowered his voice mysteriously: "Do you know who the lord is with now? The secretary, the one that everyone has been discussing recently, there are only the two of them inside, and the door is tight. close."

He especially emphasized the pronunciation of the two of them, and in an instant, there was some kind of inexplicable meaning.

Dean's tone was relaxed: "Anyway, Lance and I were kicked out, you can try your luck."

Catril hesitated. He had also heard some rumors between the lord and the secretary. If he went in and disturbed something, the lord might be very angry... he might even be sent to attack Bree by himself. s.

Catril frowned, turned and left to come back another day.

At this time, a big slap was placed on his shoulder, and Lance's voice came from behind him: "There is a shortage of people in the trade area recently. You came just in time, why don't we go and help together."

Before Catrill could refute him, Lance and Dean supported him from left to right and walked in the direction of the trade area irresistibly.

Catril: ? ? ?

When did you two work so hard?

After sending Lance and Dean away, Xiao Zhi forced himself to look away from Asen. He opened the address book and began to look for a solution to the problem.

He entered the keywords "npc" and "treatment", and a lot of results appeared immediately.

For various strange reasons, there are quite a few players who need to find a way to treat NPCs. There are basically three methods introduced by the players: looking for a doctor, looking for a priest, and looking for a mage.

Doctors are for living people, this can be crossed out directly.

Most priests have something to do with Brace, and the priest skills of the light system have a purification effect, which can be removed like a crit for the undead.

Then only the mage remains.

There are many types of mages mentioned by players. Gentle wood spells have the ability to heal and recuperate the body. White magic can communicate with various natural energies flowing in the world to heal injuries. There are also some mages who specialize in curses or witchcraft. can be treated.

Xiao Zhi tapped the word Mage with his finger: "Mage... who are you looking for?"

Because the person in need of treatment is the Lord of Hesse, the mage's position is particularly important.

Xiao Zhi, who knows the player's style, doesn't want to think about the player at all. The player's behavior is too uncontrollable. If that person is happy to start a live broadcast directly, wouldn't the whole continent know that there is a problem with the Hessian lord, and Blaise will be in minutes. To the army pressure.

If you choose an NPC, it's hard to find someone who is good at healing, doesn't favor Brace, and is willing to approach Hesse...

While thinking, Xiao Zhi quickly browsed the contents of the address book.

Suddenly, he saw a gossip post. The theme of the post is to expose the internal struggle of the top leaders of the Dolly Alliance. Several forces are competing for each other, and various evil tricks are frequently reported, which is even more exciting than the TV series.

It wasn't these that caught Xiao Zhi's attention, what he cared about was one of the details.

There is a Xiyue Clan called Eugene. He used to be a top white magician, but he accidentally missed during a treatment process, resulting in the death of Archduke Warren's eldest son, which made Archduke Warren angry and prepared to execute him directly. .

But Eugene escaped, and later Archduke Warren issued a wanted man for him, making him a wanted criminal of the Dolly Alliance, and he did not dare to return to the Dolly Alliance at all.

The post broke the news that the death of the eldest son of Archduke Warren was actually the result of a battle between several of Archduke Warren's political opponents, and Eugene was just a scapegoat.

Presumably Archduke Warren knew the truth, but he needed a punching bag, and the hapless Mage Eugene was chosen.

Even the top mages are so vulnerable in the whirlpool of political struggle. Other countries are inconvenient to accept Eugene due to the influence of Archduke Warren, so he has to live in exile.

It is said that this mage Eugene is currently working as a black doctor in the Borderlands, but his healing skills are indeed very effective. He is quite famous in the black world. As long as the money is in place, he can cure anyone.

Xiao Zhi's eyes brightened, a top-notch white magician who was expelled and had nowhere to go, stayed in a chaotic borderless land, and didn't pick patients, it was as if he was tailor-made for the current situation!

He immediately decided that it was this man.

There are a few things to do before you're ready to go.

It was definitely not a matter of a few minutes for him to leave this time. When the trade area was too busy, it was obviously unreasonable for the secretary to suddenly disappear.

Xiao Zhi immediately contacted his brothers.

Seventeen: Brother Wei Di, do you want to experience the life of a secretary?

Hello: Haven't I been experiencing it all this time?

Seventeen: Not a cloud experience, but a full-scale, immersive experience.

Hello: Why do I have an ominous premonition...

Hey, hey, what happened to Hesse?

Seventeen: Well, I need to leave for a while, about a few days, I'm not sure, I want to let Senior Brother Wei Di pretend to be me for a while.

hello: me? Will he be killed?

Seventeen: I basically walked sideways in Hesse, so don't worry. I will also let someone help protect you and ensure your safety, and you are very familiar with the work in the trade area, and people will send the documents to the Government Affairs Office, reducing the chance of encountering people, and it will not be easy to expose.

Hello: Okay, it's really exciting to think about it...

After it was settled, Xiao Zhi asked Wei Di to come to Hesse, and then quietly smuggled people to the government affairs hall.

Xiao Zhi pinched a face similar to his own, gave him his uniform and the white gauze covering his head, and let Vidi activate the soul crystal of the dead. In an instant, a fake clerk appeared, and there was almost no difference except that the whole person looked a little stunned.

In order to make sure nothing goes wrong, Wei Di also drank the voice-changing potion, making his voice the same as Xiao Zhi's.

Xiao Zhi went to ask Lance and Dean again and told them his plan to go out.

He also said that the undead named Sixteen was his friend, and this time he came to help, hoping that they could help him conceal his identity. The two solemnly agreed, and said that they would guarantee the safety of Sixteen. They knew that this was for the stability of Hesse.

After everything was done, Xiao Zhi prepared to use the teleportation crystal to leave Hessen directly.

"Gu-" Alifa's big head appeared out of the window, it seemed to know that Xiao Zhi wanted to leave, and the huge wings kept flapping, as if to say that he also wanted to go together.

Xiao Zhi floated to the window and gently touched Alifa's head: "Alifa is here? Your goal is too big, can you make it smaller like last time?"

"Gu!" Alifa nodded, then turned into a small bone dragon just like last time.

Without further delay, Xiao Zhi took Alifa, put on a black cloak, activated the teleportation crystal, and disappeared in place in an instant.

the next day.

Wearing the secretary's clothes and wearing the white veil given to him by Xiao Zhi, Wei Di imitated the secretary's external appearance and inspected the trade area accompanied by Lance.

In fact, it was just a cutscene, indicating that the clerk was still there.

While walking, you can still hear the discussion of the secretary around you.

"Have you heard? It is said that the clerk and the lord have that kind of relationship."

"Which?"

"Isn't it raining one day? There was an undead squatting in the woods to avoid the rain, but I accidentally saw them walking with umbrellas in the rain. The umbrella held by the lord himself was very close!"

"Wow……"

"Yes, yes, it is said that the trade area is specially built for the secretary."

"hiss……"

"There's more! Just yesterday, the lord specially sent a bone dragon to pick up the secretary, and then he and the secretary stayed in a room alone. There were only two people, the door was locked, and no one could enter! The knight commander is all kicked out!"

"Even the bed is broken!"

"Wow……"

Wei Maternal Single Dee: "..."

Is it his delusion? Why does the discussion seem a bit strange?

At this time, a daring skeleton beckoned to Wei Di: "Secretary, was the lord good yesterday?"

Wei Di hesitated for a moment. As a secretary, he should not be able to speak ill of the lord, and the Hessian lord must belong to the group of bigwigs who are very powerful in the whole continent, so he nodded.

The people who were chatting about gossip suddenly got excited, with a somewhat meaningful feeling: "Oh~~~~~~"

Vidi: "..."

Does the nod mean something strange in Hessian culture?
