Chapter 1091 (1/2)
Sean was studying the man tied to a chair in a tent The latter did not avert his eyes He was also gazing at Sean in silence
It was unusual for a traitor to be so quiet Back in the old king's city, Sean had witnessed nuh traitors tipped him useful information, Sean despised the worst of human nature portrayed by a traitor: avarice, obsequiousness and power-hunger
The reaction of this man, however, raised Sean's interest
After the two men stared at each other for quite a while, Sean broke the silence ”Name?”
”Joe,” the man answered ”Are you the commander here? I mean the commander of the Graycastle troop rather than the lord of Thorn Town or some other random lord”
”Is that important to you?”
”If you aren't, I won't spit a word, because there's no point of doing that”
”This sounds quite interesting,” thought Sean
Sean leaned forward a little a bit and said, ”I' Roland Wimbledon, and also the captain of the Graycastle exploration team You can call me Sean I'm the person whom you can put confidence in Now, can you tell me the whereabouts of the treasure?”
”You ic Ceree Mountain,” Joe replied flatly ”The Earl of Archduke Island Lorenzo has it!”
Sean was a little surprised at his bluntness He had thought the ue clues that required him to verify their validity, but theSean asked, ”Have you seen it before?”
”No, but it isn't a secret in the church” Joe then briefly related the war between the church and the Kingdoed about his discovery and exaggerated the Cube a lot in his report Many church executives knew about it, but the Holy City of Hermes didn't pay it much attention”
”I see So the treasure was in the Kingdoh,” Sean muttered as he stroked his chin ”But why did you tell me this? You can also sell the information to some other lords, can't you?”
Joe took a deep breath and said, ”Sir, have you heard of the God's Punishment Army?”
”Naturally It's the secret army the church took pride in,” said Sean derisively ”Unfortunately, however, it was flattened by His Majesty's First Are”
”Very well then,” said Joe, who did not seem to be remotely upset about his response ”It would be easier for roup of God's Punishe his authority over the Archduke Island except the King of Graycastle”
”So?” The guard said while raising his brows ”I thought those hter e How many of them are left?”
”Ten no, probably around five,” said Joe hesitantly ”Anyway, it's not a lot”
”Five would be enough to guard a castle,” said Sean with a smile ”What do you want from me then? Or how much would you like me to pay you for this piece of information?”
”No, my only hope is to stay alive,” Joe said in a hushed voice ”The church has nothing to co to revenge the church His men have already entered Thorn Town, and I don't want to meddle in this matter If” He broke off and then continued, ”If this infor of Graycastle could acquit me”
Sean doubted whether this was his real esture King Roland often h Sean did not possess a special ability to distinguish lies froale did, soic power to do so
