Chapter 375 What are you doing? I'm learning a foreign language
"Not interested."
Without even thinking about it, Mo Cheng refused decisively.
Even though the Seranis family is now imprisoned, as the leading merchant among the emerging nobles, they still have many industries.
At the same time, the skilled employees trained in those industries, previous business routes, and personal connections are the greatest wealth.
But for Mo Cheng, Seranis's industry is a trouble.
He was very clear about his strengths and weaknesses, and Mo Cheng knew that he was not mentally prepared for the industry.
Not to mention , managing a large number of industries is itself a very difficult task for Mo Cheng.
He was not even willing to lead a wild group and distribute equipment and money according to contribution, let alone take over other people's business.
When Helena heard that Mo Cheng had no interest in the Seranis family business, she felt desperate for a moment. She knew that when there was a powerful [Hero]-level assassin among the assassins, things were beyond her control.
The Seranis family does maintain a good relationship with the [Hero]-level warriors, but they want to use the benefits of the exchanges to force them to fight with warriors of the same level.
This kind of thing would never happen even in Helena's most outrageous dreams.
Helena, who came from a big business family, knew better than anyone the relationship between the Seranis family and those [Hero]-level strongmen. It was just a very ordinary relationship of interest.
For the sake of money, it's okay to ask them to help solve some small troubles, but asking them to risk their lives is a joke.
But at this time, Mo Cheng's voice sounded again, "But don't worry about what happens next, I will be responsible for your safety."
This time, speaking brought hope to Helena.
Mo Cheng had no interest in the Seranis family's industry, but he was very interested in Helena's series of tasks.
Moreover, the mission description clearly points the clues to the ocean.
He knew very well what kind of weird things were in the ocean of this world.
In terms of the density and average level of monsters, the monsters in the ocean are on average one level higher than those on land.
This is just the near-shore area. As for things in the deep ocean, it is even more troublesome.
"I'm going to the Kingdom of Bezeko with the Iron Cruise. Do you want to come with me or hide somewhere?"
"I will follow you to the Kingdom of Bezeko."
Without any further thought, Helena decided to go to the Kingdom of Bezeko.
Putting aside the question of whether hiding was useful or not, Helena felt that her chances of survival would not be very high if someone found her hiding place and blocked the door.
There is a mission to find the traitor in the delegation from the Kingdom of Bezeko, and Helena also has a continuous task chain, but it is not too difficult for Mo Cheng.
Although Mo Cheng was not very proficient in the technique of bundling some tasks together and completing them at the same time, he was not unfamiliar with it.
"Okay." Mo Cheng nodded, and then ordered, "Stay in the hotel for the next few days, I'll see if I can lure those killers out."
That being said, Mo Cheng had no confidence that those killers would continue to attack in the next few days.
After all, a lot of people have just died, so it will take some time for the situation to calm down before they can continue to send people out.
Of course, we cannot rule out the possibility that they are extremely extreme and crazy organizations that must complete a mission once they receive it, even if it means dying to the last soldier.
Mo Cheng secretly regretted that he didn't have the methods of a necromancer, otherwise he would be able to search the souls and memories of the killers and find out what killer organization was behind them.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the hotel, and then Lilia, Isabella and Theresa pushed open the door. Behind them were several guards and Viscount Nidas, whose figure was particularly eye-catching.
The moment he saw Mo Cheng and Helena, Viscount Nidas breathed a sigh of relief, "That's great, sir. I thought you were attacked and the garden was bombed. No one in the entire manor had seen you..."
"Your guard told me that you might have returned to the hotel. That's great, that's great..."
Viscount Nidas's words seemed a little incoherent due to his excitement, but Mo Cheng could more or less understand Viscount Nidas's mood.
After all, as a new upstart in Fairhaven, if Mo Cheng got hurt in Viscount Nidas's manor, let alone in the explosion, Viscount Nidas would be severely charged.
It would even cause Viscount Nidas's reputation among the nobles to plummet. After all, everyone almost got blown to death when they went to Viscount Nidas's manor to attend the banquet.
No smart person would have hung out in the new World Trade Center building after 9/11.
"What happened?"
Mo Cheng asked with an unhappy look on his face, as if he had been interrupted on something important.
He was asking the question even though he knew the answer. At least he couldn't take the blame for the bombing of Viscount Nidas's garden, nor could he let others find out that he had suffered an unprovoked disaster.
So he could only pretend he knew nothing.
"The garden in my manor was destroyed by thugs using explosives, but fortunately no one was injured. I didn't see you in the manor, so I was worried..."
The garden of his own manor exploded mysteriously. If Count Mo Cheng died in the explosion, Viscount Nidas could imagine himself shouting at the top of his lungs in the court of nobles to prove that he had not assassinated Mo Cheng.
Assassinating a count is too serious a crime for a noble, and nobles are absolutely not allowed to use assassination methods against each other.
This is an unspoken rule that everyone follows.
Of course, the so-called "not using assassination methods" means in other words that you cannot use methods that can be seen as assassination methods.
Viscount Nidas also saw Helena in the room at this time. His eyes kept moving between the two of them, "Your Excellency, you..."
"Helena and I had some opinions about the history of Aundair and some of the local language of Bezek, so we decided to go somewhere else to have a good chat. We left secretly very early, avoiding many people, and the garden was still in good condition at that time."
Mo Cheng's voice became softer and softer, his face becoming more and more gloomy, "Then, I saw you violently push open my door and disturb my studies."
He is just like a good student who is disturbed and loves learning.
The kind of [learning] that is like studying Ming history or learning a foreign language.
Mo Cheng didn't want to have more contact with Viscount Nidas and Helena. For this assassination attempt, Mo Cheng had a rough list of suspects in his mind.
And Viscount Nidas, the Riddler, is also among them.
