They all call me Great Master-Chapter 452 449 Fishing!

With heavy and somewhat sluggish steps, the Bandage Swordsman searched along the riverbank.

"Wait for me!

Big bro, wait for me!"

Eli, nimble with a lively gaze and dressed in hunting attire, sported a small mustache. He suddenly sprang out, holding a rabbit in his hand.

"This rabbit is really plump!

Add some potatoes, and we can feast again!

However, compared to rabbit meat, beef or mutton would be tastier for stew, what a pity we don't have more money. By the way, big bro, do you need to change your bandages?

They're getting a bit dirty."

Eli rambled on.

It was hard to imagine him as a stalker.

The Bandage Swordsman completely ignored the other.

Not just out of habit, but also because he knew why his follower had come—to dig up more information from him.

Moreover, the strength he demonstrated made the other feel secure.

Similarly, he was happy to glean some information from his follower's mouth.

Thus, a mutually beneficial, odd partnership was born.

"Eh?!"

Eli suddenly stopped his babble.

His ears kept moving, and soon after, the eyes of the stalker with a part-time job as an intelligence trafficker locked onto the source of the sound.

On a riverbank around a corner, a person lay prone, his back covered in fresh blood, continuously groaning.

Eli normally wouldn't bother with such 'dying people.'

Because such people were very likely not going to survive.

And...

Such people inevitably carried trouble.

Maybe even big trouble.

He had no interest in getting himself tangled in big troubles. He was just a part-time 'intelligence trafficker,' not some big shot. Making a bit of money to spend was fine, but he would never dare to risk his life if something really happened...

"Hey, hey, big bro!

Don't do it!

You can't save that kind of person!"

While Eli was thinking, he saw that the Bandage Swordsman had already started walking towards that person, and immediately, the stalker-cum-intelligence trafficker started shouting repeatedly.

However, while his mouth shouted, his mind began to scheme.

Obviously, the Bandage Swordsman was here for this person.

Who was this person?

Did they carry any valuable information?

Almost instantly, driven by professional instinct, the stalker's eyes gleamed.

He didn't dare take risks.

But the Bandage Swordsman was different.

His boss not only had a mysterious background but also possessed great strength.

Simply put, hiding under the tall man, even if the sky fell, there would be someone to hold it up.

The Bandage Swordsman knew the thoughts of the man behind him.

But he didn't care.

What he cared more about was whether Walsh could be saved.

He was very interested in the news about 'Pale Hand' and that person named Glast.

However, when the Bandage Swordsman examined Walsh's wound, he was surprised to find—

'Stabbed off target?'

Immediately, the Bandage Swordsman silently frowned.

With the strength of an 'Entrant' like 'Bloody John,' would his longsword stab off target?

Impossible!

Unless it was...

Intentional!

'Tsk tsk, this just got interesting!'

After considering something in his mind, the Bandage Swordsman pretended to be unaware and asked Eli for some ointment. After applying it, watching Walsh who was starting to regain consciousness, the Bandage Swordsman's raspy voice rose—

"Have you been betrayed too?"

...

''Bloody John'?

Ha, more like an old mudfish in the sea!

Truly slippery as an eel!'

Arthur lamented in his heart.

The opponent not only fled when the situation turned awry, but also casually 'planted a pin'.

Walsh didn't die.

What would happen?

Not to mention the larger implications, at the very least, it would be quite uncomfortable for that Glast there, and even under the deliberate provocation of the other party, it would become a piece to be used against Glast.

Whether used or not, it's necessary to have it!

Arthur was very clear about this 'Bloody John's' psychology.

At the same time, he slightly adjusted the plan in his mind.

The reason the Bandage Swordsman appeared again was to attract the 'Pale Hand'—the Bandage Swordsman was attractive to the 'Death Poetry Society', and naturally to the similarly death-longing 'Pale Hand'. So, after Arthur deduced that the Baron Kemir's notes on Glast might indicate a member of the 'Pale Hand', and after spotting the stalker, he immediately arranged for the Bandage Swordsman to set out.

The Spirit Medium of South Los intended to fish.

As for the just-appeared Kuliqi?

Of course, to follow the fool, Walsh.

However, circumstances have changed now.

New novel chapters are published on freewёbn૦νeɭ.com.

It's not that Arthur doesn't plan to fish anymore, but that Arthur plans to bait two fish with one worm.

Glast, he intended to fish.

'Bloody John', he also intended to fish.

The former just needed to be interested in the Bandage Swordsman, and smelling the scent would rush over.

The latter?

Arthur didn't believe the other would let Walsh simply fend for himself.

Recollecting how the other kicked Walsh into the river water and then turned into a pool of water to leave, Arthur was quite certain that the opponent had left some contingency on Walsh.

Regarding this, Arthur was full of anticipation.

But that was later.

Now?

Arthur looked toward the ring sent by Baron Korol's Swordsmanship Chief and the bracelet sent by Baron Hausman's Swordsmanship Chief.

Especially the latter, Arthur was quite curious about what it could be that made Glast so concerned that he would even swap it for a clue to the Pirate King's treasure with 'Bloody John'.

However, despite his anticipation, Arthur wouldn't show a tiny bit of it on the surface.

He first picked up the ring—

[Name: Fiery Ring]

[Type: Jewelry Item]

[Quality: Secret Technique]

[Attributes: 1, Flame Arrows; 2, Fireball Technique]

[Remarks: At the start of the Seven Years' War, the Earl of South Los had these rings crafted to demonstrate his power and strengthen the unity among his nobles. However, due to a miscalculation in the materials required, instead of crafting 27 rings, only 11 were made, but you cannot deny, these are high-quality items among the secret techniques]

...

[Flame Arrows: Stores 6 flame arrows; 6/6]

[Fireball Technique: Stores 1 fireball; 1/1]

(Note: Once the Flame Arrows and Fireball Technique are used up, they can be recharged with gold coins or sunlight)

...

'This Old Earl of South Los really does embody the noble's style!'

After muttering to himself, Arthur directly picked up the second item.

A bracelet made of leather and metal.

[Name: Islan's Leap]

[Type: Jewelry Item]

[Quality: Secret Technique]

[Attributes: 1, Agility; 2, Jump]

[Remarks: Islan was a swordsman who emerged during the mass conscription of the Seven Years' War, with humble beginnings, but exceptional talent. He got recognized by the Old Lion soon after entering the battlefield and subsequently learned the soldier version of 'Swift Bird Swordsmanship'. Later, he took on the role of training new recruits, but during a raid on the West Coast, he perished in a sea of fire, leaving only this bracelet behind…]

...

[Agility: You will become more agile]

[Jump: You will jump higher and farther]

...

Looking at the bracelet, Arthur's brows furrowed in thought.
