Chapter 227 226. Mo Cheng, the Petty-Minded Person

When the last group of seriously injured people recovered under the illumination of the holy light, and when those who watched their loved ones come back to life from injuries that could almost announce their funeral, they immediately broke through the obstacles of the members of the law enforcement team and took their parents, lovers, Or the children just hug them.

Mo Cheng, who drank a bottle of spiritual potion for himself, watched from the sidelines. Although he was not able to clearly understand the meaning of what he was doing, he saw that these people could still hold their living bodies and cry with joy. , it’s better than just holding the corpse and crying bitterly.

It's true that standing up to treat the seriously injured caused trouble for Hodge, but looking at the scene in front of him, it was also an added bonus.

"Thank you for your hard work, this is the last batch."

Margaret looked at the young man who claimed to be a glorious priest, and for the first time she discovered that this friend with whom she was able to talk to some extent had quite a lot of secrets.

When Mo Cheng fought with Ichikiel again, he didn't do enough to hide it. The intensity of the battle at that time was not enough for him to do anything unrelated to the battle.

So at that time, Margaret could see a dragonborn with a bloodline strong enough to become a dragonman rushing into the thunder clouds in the sky with Ichiqil in his arms. She saw the almost tragic fighting method, and she even saw him falling from the sky. By that time, the dragon man had transformed back into Mo Cheng.

The pure holy light will inevitably lead to crazy dragon blood, and even the elemental ball that looks particularly familiar, and Margaret has only seen it on [Karl].

These completely opposite things, which can even cause conflicts, can be completely accommodated in one person.

Although she is not a legal practitioner, Margaret's vision is definitely not narrow. She is very clear about the consequences of forcibly putting things from different systems together.

The simplest one is undoubtedly [explosion].

And since Misas came back, when asked about his previous experience, he just said that he was transported to a desert island due to space turbulence. Fortunately, Mo Cheng was there to protect him.

This was originally something that was not too strange, but when Misas later issued a gag order on people who saw Mo Cheng's dragon form, Margaret had to think about the past few days. What exactly did Misas go through during that time?

Margaret had many questions to ask about Mo Cheng, his bloodline, what happened in those days with Misas, and even talked as [Karl] when they first met.

[Mo Cheng, why do you hide yourself in the dark night? If you hear my request, then walk under the sun and let me know everything about you. 】

A sentence from a certain novel suddenly came to mind. Margaret was stunned, and then shook her head violently as if she wanted to shake it away.

Returning among the fragments of past history, Mo Cheng gave the novel written by Windissa to Margaret, a guy who broke up with his family and ran away from home. He was a novelist and an adventurer by profession. A story written with Makoto and Margaret as the main characters.

I don’t know if it was out of some bad taste or a bad joke for the younger generation.

In short, every time Margaret opened Windisa's novel, her thoughts wandered between "reading" or "burning".

Her thoughts were interrupted by a novel that suddenly appeared, and the words Margaret wanted to ask changed drastically when she spoke, "Are you okay? Do you want to find a place to rest?"

Using high-frequency holy light, according to Margaret's understanding of Mo Cheng, he probably used his mental power to the end, and there was only a little distance left before all his mental power was exhausted.

Although there are mental potions as supplements, potions are not omnipotent, and taking too much at the same time will not only reduce the effect, but also accumulate toxicity in the potion due to taking too much, resulting in many negative effects.

"No, it's much easier to treat them than to fight with Ichikiel. But let's go back to the Albert House first. If we stay here, we won't be able to leave."

Looking at the people who wanted to come forward to express their gratitude, Mo Cheng simply chose to leave. His social skills were not yet ready to handle such an occasion.

Mo Cheng not only relied on mental potions to replenish his energy, but also consumed a lot of magic mangoes in the system store. There are restrictions on the consumption of mental potions, but there are no restrictions on magic mango and purification potions.

Just after returning to Albert House, Mo Cheng heard a new question.

"Is there not enough food in the sinking areas and civilian areas?"

As soon as he entered the door, he heard Misas' surprised voice. Most of Fairhaven's daily food is provided by city granaries and various markets, with a small portion supplied by surrounding villages and towns.

"Due to the [collapse incident], everyone is now rushing to buy food. In the case of physical isolation, there is simply not enough food in the sinking area and civilian areas to be replenished. In addition, there is currently very little food circulating on the market. Some people have bought food in the past three I have been purchasing grain for months.”

Misas' explanation made Mo Cheng squint his eyes. He had already heard some clues.

It is basically impossible to make any profit from purchasing grain in Fairhaven. In order to prevent the capital from looking "disgraceful" among other cities, Aundair officials will replenish grain in a timely manner to balance grain prices.

There is a lot of food in hand, but apart from it becoming worthless as time goes by, any businessman with a little bit of brains knows that there is no profit from this item.

unless……

Some people can predict the disaster that will happen in Fairhaven in advance, intending to make a fortune from this disaster and squeeze the last bit of oil and water from the people.

As for why those people knew...

Mo Cheng thought of the large Inquisition team he had faced before, led by Ichikiel.

With that kind of number of teams, no matter how proficient the Inquisition was in disguise, it would be impossible for them to reach Fairhaven without telling everyone.

Unless someone acts as an internal agent, and this person must be very strong.

Combining these conditions and the current political environment of the Principality of Aundair, Mo Cheng could not think of anyone other than a [noble] candidate.

It is not clear which noble it is, but it is certain that it is definitely a powerful noble.

"Don't even think about buying grain. No one will sell it under the current situation. Even if it is sold, it will definitely be at a sky-high price."

Mo Cheng's words directly interrupted the conversation in the room about how to purchase grain. "It's easy to get grain. Just ask Ralph to cooperate."

Under Ralph's puzzled but sure Mo Cheng had nothing good to say, Mo Cheng slowly expressed his thoughts, "Ask Ralph to help create evidence that the Viscount Toledo family is collaborating with the enemy and treason, and then I will go and kill him." With everything gone, we can definitely plunder enough food from the Toledo family."

The faces of the audience were getting darker and darker, and Ralph wanted to rush up and punch him. Such words could be said in private, but they must not be said in a crowded place.

Not only did he say it now, he said it in front of the nobles and princesses, and even involved him.

Ralph's only thought now is to give Mo Cheng a good beating. This guy in front of him is so good at pulling people into trouble.
