I am surrounded by beauties in the Gods and Demons Game Center

Zhang Wei led the adventurers straight to the tax collector's office and residence. The armed guards at the door did not dare to forcibly stop the armed attack by Zhang Wei and others. After a symbolic resistance, they took the initiative to hand over the key to the door.

Zhang Wei opened the door and waved his hand: "Brothers, just take back our things, go ahead!!!"

The adventurers rushed in, and Zhang Wei mixed in with the crowd to find the tax collector. He wanted to find the whereabouts of the cripple through the tax collector.

In the chaotic office, there were only a few guards who had given up resistance.

Zhang Wei grabbed a guard and asked, "Where are the people?"

"Who, who?" The guard was obviously frightened. He didn't understand who Zhang Wei was looking for.

"Where are the tax officer and his staff?" Zhang Wei thought that even if he couldn't catch the tax officer, it would be fine to catch the staff around the tax officer. At least the clues would not be lost.

"No, he's not here." The guard answered Zhang Wei's question tremblingly.

"What do you mean absent? No one came to work today?" Zhang Wei pushed the guard against the wall and warned him to think carefully before answering his questions.

"We came in the morning, but they ran away before you came, leaving only a few of us. Even the servants in the back house ran away." The guard quickly answered Zhang Wei's question.

"Then why don't you run?" Zhang Wei was a little unconvinced.

"We are adventurers too. We are here to receive the internal referral mission issued by the guild. We can't run away." The guard asked Zhang Wei if he could take out his adventurer badge and the certificate for the internal referral mission.

Zhang Wei released the guard and asked him to quickly get the credentials.

"Look, this is the badge, and this is the certificate." The guard held a silver-level badge in his left hand and a mission certificate in his right hand.

"Then I advise you to leave here quickly before they go crazy." Zhang Wei turned around and headed straight for the residential area behind. His goal was to see if he could find the tax collector's secret room or something like that, and thus find some clues.

Just like what the guard said, there were no servants in the residential area, only adventurers who were robbing everything they saw. Zhang Wei looked at the chaotic residential area and felt that it would affect his work, so he used the amplification magic to shout: "Brothers, the old tax collector ran away a long time ago, and he must have taken all his property with him. Let's go to his property to find him and make him spit out the money. The garbage he left here is just to delay time!"

Scarface, who was snatching a painting whose value he wasn't sure from an adventurer, let go of the painting frame in his hand, turned around and rushed outside when he heard it.

"Fuck, yeah, those shops have more money!" the red-haired and bearded man yelled as he rushed outside.

The other adventurers came to their senses and decided that instead of robbing the garbage here, they should go and rob the shops owned by the tax collectors! Why would they rob the garbage if they didn't want to rob the real money?

As the crowd dispersed, Zhang Wei began to look for the secret room, but he was blocked by a team of male magicians wearing glasses.

"Brother, is there something wrong?" Zhang Wei wanted to know why these six guys who formed a fully equipped team were blocking him instead of making money.

"Brother, isn't it easier to plan? Did you send everyone away to find the secret room? Unfortunately, we've checked it out. There's nothing valuable there, but there are a bunch of fakes. I guess they're the same as the fakes here, used to delay time and provoke conflicts." The bespectacled male magician told Zhang Wei without any concealment that they had already checked out the secret room.

"Oh, I'm not interested in money." Zhang Wei didn't want to get too entangled with the full team in front of him.

"That means you are interested in people. Let me guess, you want to find the tax officer, and find Sha Qiang through the tax officer. But why are you looking for Sha Qiang? Let me think about it, it is to find the cripple, right? Then why are you looking for the cripple? Zhang Wei." The male magician with glasses pointed out Zhang Wei's name and looked at Zhang Wei with a smile.

Zhang Wei did not take off his magic mask. He neither admitted nor denied it. Instead, he tilted his head and looked at the male magician with glasses and said, "Brother, just tell me what you want to do. I'm in a hurry."

"Nothing, I just want to say that you have been doing so much trouble, and you might find someone who is not here at all. You are smarter than me, and I believe you can understand what I am saying. If you believe me, stop causing trouble and go back to your shop, and someone will take you to find the cripple." The male magician with glasses stated his request.

"So you plan to settle things?" Zhang Wei didn't care whether the bespectacled magician really wanted to quell the riot, but he had to know what the bespectacled magician's purpose was in stopping him.

"No, the heat is just right now. I just don't want you to make the fire too big and burn the delicious food." The male magician with glasses made a gesture of invitation, indicating that if Zhang Wei was willing to listen to advice, he should leave.

Zhang Wei frowned. The last person who compared things to dishes was the dead cripple. He didn't know whether the six people in front of him were also members of the Blood Moon Cult or had any connection with the Blood Moon Cult.

He thought about it and decided to wait and see what would happen, so he followed the direction pointed by the bespectacled male magician and left the residential area.

"If we do this, will it arouse his suspicion and attention?" The warlock reminded the bespectacled male magician that it might be too risky for them to appear in front of Zhang Wei now.

"The other gods' followers are hiding, but we have to interact with him. The Trial of the Brave is about to begin, and you don't want to give the chance to be the protagonist to others, right?" The words of the bespectacled male magician silenced his team members.

Samantha's shop.

"You're back? How's everything?" Samantha hurried forward to ask about Zhang Wei's situation. The town was already affected by the riots, although the adventurers were only looting the shops and industries under the tax collector. However, everyone knew that this riot would soon spread to the entire town.

"Zhang Wei, is Zhang Wei there?" A male voice came from outside. Zhang Wei came to the second-floor window and saw that the person calling him was a soldier under the sergeant's command.

"Zhang Wei!" The soldier saw Zhang Wei by the window, and he quickly waved his hand to let Zhang Wei look at him: "The sergeant said that the centurion wanted to see you. He said that the centurion was in the Baron's Mansion. The sergeant said it's up to you to go or not! After I pass on the message, I have to go to the centurion's house to meet up with the sergeant. Now the troops are divided into two parts. One part is led by our sergeant at the centurion's house. The other part was taken to the Baron's Mansion by the centurion."

"I'm leaving! Be careful!" said the soldier, and quickly ran towards the centurion's house.

"Will he blame you?" Samantha was worried that the Centurion would take the opportunity to blame Zhang Wei.

"We have to go even if it's the Hongmen Banquet. Brother Nan and the butler should be in the Baron's Mansion. If I don't go, I'm afraid I'll take all the blame." Zhang Wei wanted Samantha and Qian Yuanyuan to hide in the guild, or go to the temple to find Pamela.

But Samantha was reluctant to abandon the store and base she had worked so hard to build. She promised Zhang Wei that if things went wrong, they would definitely run away. But before that, they would stay here and wait for him to come back.

Zhang Wei wanted Qian Yuanyuan to persuade Samantha, but Qian Yuanyuan's attitude was even more determined than Samantha's.

Zhang Wei had no choice but to leave them a lot of magic scrolls in case of emergency. He was not worried about those adventurers, but he was worried that the cripple or others would follow his example and take advantage of the explosion to steal the house like last time.

"Don't worry, we will be fine. We'll wait for you." Qian Yuanyuan kissed Zhang Wei to make him feel at ease.

Outside the Baron's Palace

"Who! Stop!" The sergeant on duty at the door pointed his sword directly at Zhang Wei. Zhang Wei rarely interacted with military personnel, so the sergeant did not recognize Zhang Wei.

"I, Zhang Wei, am one of us." Zhang Wei said, taking out the sergeant's ID card and showing it to the squad leader.

"What's going on with you? Didn't you receive any notification? Why are you here alone?" The sergeant asked in confusion when he saw that Zhang Wei, although a sergeant, was alone.

Zhang Wei deliberately gave a bitter smile and replied, "I don't know what happened. My squad leader sent someone to tell me that the centurion wanted to see me, so I hurried over."

"Okay, then hurry in, those guys are going crazy now!" said the sergeant, patting Zhang Wei on the shoulder, and then asked the soldiers inside the gate to open the door and let Zhang Wei in.

Zhang Wei had just entered the gate and took a few steps when he heard someone calling him. He saw Brother Nan waving at him. He was about to go find Brother Nan, but he didn't expect that the centurion was also standing at the second-floor window of the main building at this time, shouting Zhang Wei's name and asking him to come and see him.

Zhang Wei was stunned for a moment. He looked at Brother Nan, then at the centurion, not knowing who he should see first.

Fortunately, Brother Nan heard that the centurion was also looking for Zhang Wei, so he signaled Zhang Wei to go see the centurion first.

Zhang Wei smiled apologetically at Brother Nan, then hurriedly trotted off to meet the centurion.

As soon as he entered the room, Zhang Wei saw the centurion, the butler, and an old man who seemed unfathomable.

"Butler, you have met me. This is the Baron's teacher and think tank, Mr. Qiao Rui." The centurion introduced the people in the room to Zhang Wei.

"Hello, sir." Zhang Wei saluted Qiao Rui.

Qiao Rui nodded without saying anything, but quietly watched Zhang Wei's every move.

"Let's put etiquette aside for now," the centurion interrupted Zhang Wei when he saw that he was about to salute the butler. The centurion didn't care that the butler looked unhappy, but asked Zhang Wei directly what happened.

Zhang Wei said innocently, "I don't know what happened. You asked me to ask the guild two things, but they said no to the first one without even discussing it with me. They also scolded me, saying that I'm an adventurer too, so don't I have any brains?"

"What about the second thing?" The centurion didn't want to hear Zhang Wei complain, so he asked quickly.

"The president told me to go back and wait for news, so I went back to the store and waited for news. Then the captain's people asked me to come and see you, so I came." Zhang Wei quickly answered the centurion's question.

"Have you met the president?" Qiao Rui suddenly asked.

"Yes, Kaori Kida took me to see him." Zhang Wei answered Qiao Rui's question without thinking.

"Then it was the president who said no?" Qiao Rui asked again.

"No, it was Kida Kaori who said no. It was the president who told me to wait for news."

"What is Kaori Kida's position in the guild? Can she take you to see the president?" Qiao Rui asked the third question.

"Uh..." Zhang Wei hesitated this time. He was really thinking about this question, because he didn't know what Kida Kaori's identity was. If Qiao Rui hadn't asked him this, he wouldn't have realized that it seemed strange for a formal employee to bring outsiders to see the president.

Seeing that Zhang Wei was thinking seriously, Qiao Rui smiled and said, "It's okay. You can leave first."

When Zhang Wei heard Qiao Rui asking him to leave, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at the butler. After all, he was nominally the butler's subordinate.

The butler was very satisfied with Zhang Wei's behavior. He glanced at the centurion and said, "Go down and rest first."

"Yes." Zhang Wei bowed to the butler and left the room.
