Lord Chronicle

Chapter 253

Walsa said: "What way? Your uninspired idea of ​​violence will be avoided."

Gein knocked on him, and then said: "Little white rabbit, let Cliff taste that thing too. When he turns into Norman's appearance, let's see how he can still be arrogant."

This is indeed a good way to let out a bad breath without appearing violent.More importantly, it would be so gratifying if Cliff also turned into Norman's good-for-nothing.

Thinking of this, the three of Sol all felt a chill, this... this is really a fucking loss.

Just doing what he said, Gein immediately walked to the room where Norman was interrogated that day: "I remember that thing is still in there."

"Hey, don't you have to be so extreme?" Das couldn't help persuading.

Walsa also said: "He is also the most powerful nobleman in Dinar, it's better to give him some dignity."

Gein said disdainfully: "If he can resist the temptation of the little white rabbit, I really admire him. Otherwise, I can only blame him for not being firm in his will."

As he said that, Gein had already walked to the door, but when he pushed the door open, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

"What's wrong?" Thinking that something happened to him, the three hurried over.

Gein pointed to the room and said, "Little... the little white rabbit is gone."

"What?" Sol was taken aback, and quickly looked into the room.

Because it was used for interrogation, the room was empty, with only a table and a few chairs, and nothing else.At this moment, the table where the little white rabbit should have been placed was empty.

"What's going on, did someone steal it?" Walsa asked in surprise.

Sol shook his head: "No, my subordinates are all trustworthy people, they won't do this kind of thing. Besides, it's useless to steal the little white rabbit."

"Then how could it be..." Das frowned, suddenly, his eyes couldn't help looking at the other three.

The three of Sol immediately understood what he meant, and Gein said angrily: "What kind of eyes are you looking at? Do you think the thief is among us?"

Das snorted, "There's nothing impossible. It's not a day or two since you've been thinking about the little white rabbit."

Walsa said angrily: "What about you, you are not the same?"

Das proudly said: "Don't be stupid, as a dignified prince, would I do such a shameless thing?"

"Of course." The other three immediately said in unison.

Gein began to defend himself: "As far as the suspicion is concerned, of course I am the lightest. If I stole it, would I still take the initiative to come here to get it?"

Sol glanced at him: "Why not? If you do this on purpose, you can confuse the public and separate the relationship in front of us."

Before Gein could speak, Walsa hurriedly said: "Of course I am the least suspicious. You know that the first victim of Little White Rabbit was me, would I still do such self-abuse?"

Das sneered slightly: "Maybe it's because you are the victim that you are particularly interested in it. Didn't Norman change his attitude after being beaten to death by it?"

Walsa said anxiously: "But I don't..."

But Saul interrupted him and said, "Tsk tsk, if you want to say the most innocent, it is naturally me. You know, I spent 300 million to seal the little white rabbit, so how can I guard myself?"

"Tch, I think you are the most suspect." Gein made an indecent gesture: "Who knows what you are planning behind your back when you say to seal it. Maybe you bought the little white rabbit just for one person." exclusive."

"What? I think you are the one who does this kind of thing."

"I remembered, Das, you went out to the toilet several times yesterday, each time took a very long time, did you come here to steal something?"

"Damn, I was constipated. Wait, you pervert, did you pay attention to how many times I went to the toilet?"

"That's just a coincidence... That's not the point, is it? I mean you're the most suspect."

"Gein, didn't you ask Kress to come to the backyard for a sword competition this morning? Could it be that your purpose is actually..."

……

Soon the reasoning turns into a quarrel of finger-pointing and exposing.However, after arguing and arguing, several people even dug out everything the other had done in the past two days, but they still had no clue as to who stole the little white rabbit.

In the end, the sweaty people looked at each other and said at the same time, "Whoever steals it is doomed to never get a girl again for the rest of his life."

In this way, the whereabouts of the little white rabbit became an eternal mystery...

***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** *******************
"Okay, let's ignore the whereabouts of the little white rabbit, let's talk about what to do next."

After returning to the house, the four began to discuss the next step.

"What are you going to do with Cliff, and hand it over to the four chambers of commerce?" Das asked at this time.

Sol shook his head: "He is our talisman. It is safer to stay here until the Sidvila Fortress is settled. But since we have promised the four chambers of commerce, we will have to give them people sooner or later."

"Speaking of the fortress, shouldn't we also do it over there?" Gein said.

Sol hummed: "However, many people were injured tonight, and we have to wait for their injuries to recover. Fortunately, capturing Cliff should buy us a lot of time."

Das frowned and said, "But I always pay attention to what Cliff said. If there are really two legions of the Lulin Army entering Dinar, we may completely lose this war."

Gein also said: "Yes, Lu Lin's war mobilization power is indeed terrifying. At this point in the war, they can still send so many troops."

"So we must rescue the captives before they arrive, regain the fortress, and never let these people step into Dinar."

The successive unexpected situations have made Sidvila and the captives there extremely important. Whether they can regain control of the fortress is even more important than the original plan of the four.

"Since the capture of the fortress is imminent, shouldn't we consider our actions here? After all, we need the support of Ferry City to hold Sidvila." Walsa suggested.

Sol nodded: "That's right, when the captives are rescued, Ferry City has to act at the same time. After all, this is our original purpose. It seems that it is time to contact Jessica."

"Time is so tight, is there time?" Gein asked.

Sol thought for a while and said, "It shouldn't be a problem. If you ask the four major chambers of commerce, with their connections, they can send the letter to Lovell in a few days at most."

As he said that, he said to Dass, "In addition, you also have to ask the king to send troops to gather in Lowell."

Das nodded and said: "No problem, I will write a secret letter and let the four chambers of commerce send it out together."

At this time, Gein lowered his head and calculated the time, saying: "Counting the time for delivering the letter and gathering the troops, it will take half a month at the fastest. So no matter what, we have to delay this period of time."

Sol said: "The current situation is still favorable to us, so there should be no problem. It's just that the teleportation array must be paid attention to at all times and ready to use at any time."

Walsa said: "Don't worry, the place we are looking for is very hidden, and with the cover of the four major chambers of commerce, it will not be exposed. I have carefully studied the blueprints. If necessary, the teleportation array can be built within a day, but If it works, I can't do anything."

Sol said: "I have arrangements for this, and there will be no problems."

Having arranged everything for the future, the four of them couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Although they temporarily won tonight, it probably aroused the great vigilance of Lu Lin.

Now the city of Ferry is full of undercurrents, both the light and the dark are plotting against each other, plus those large and small resistance organizations, unidentified troops outside the city, and the upcoming two Lulin legions...

I'm afraid that if there is only one fire, the whole situation will be in chaos.

The four of them had to achieve two almost impossible goals in this chaotic situation. Although they had thought about the danger of this trip before they set off, the situation was so critical that it was beyond their expectations.

Just the attack tonight, they were almost wiped out, and now I still have lingering fears when I think about it.

Walsa said suddenly: "Have you ever thought about who will help us escape in the end?

Hearing him mention it, the other three also became interested.They were able to escape tonight thanks to the help of that mysterious person who didn't show up. However, who in Ferry City has such strength and has such a good relationship with them that they would risk their help?
Sol scratched his head: "I thought about it too, but after filtering all possible people, I still can't think of who it would be."

Don't even think about the resistance organization, they obviously don't have this kind of strength; the Thieves Guild, Garrett has clearly denied it; and apart from these two forces that have some relationship with them, the rest are only...

"Could it be the four major chambers of commerce?" Das asked in surprise.

Gein pondered: "It is indeed possible. Besides, we are going to kidnap Cliff, and they have reasons to assist."

"But why hide?" Sol asked.

Das shrugged: "Who knows, maybe I don't want to get involved too deeply."

At this time Walsa said: "But that man obviously used magic, and his mana is much deeper than mine. I didn't even feel the fluctuation of magic before he cast the magic."

Sol said: "It's nothing surprising. The four major chambers of commerce have many powerful exclusive mercenaries, and it's not surprising that people with advanced magic skills."

Igrid is the thug of the four major chambers of commerce, and Saul is deeply impressed by this.

Walsa said with some hesitation: "But...maybe it's my illusion, I always feel that his magic is somewhat similar to necromancy."

"Necromantic magic?" Sol was really taken aback: "Are you sure?"

Walsa shook his head: "The situation at the time was very chaotic, and he deliberately concealed it, so I can't be sure. It's just that I have dealt with necromancers many times, so I have a familiar feeling."

"Impossible, how could necromancers help us? Besides, after their guild headquarters was destroyed, no necromancers appeared again." Das said incredulously.

"Who knows, with the intertwined influence of the four major chambers of commerce, it is not surprising to have a few necromancers." Sol shrugged: "But whatever, at least he is helping us."

"Yes, it's useless to think about it too much. If we have a chance to meet in the future, I'll thank that guy." Das also said.

"It's almost dawn, and this night is really long." At this time, Gain yawned when he noticed the first dawn outside the window.

Walsa rubbed his eyes: "No, I have to catch up on sleepiness, don't wake me up before dinner."

Sol stood up: "Everyone is tired all night, go to rest, if there is anything to talk about tomorrow."

So, the four of them went back to their rooms to rest, ending this unforgettable night.

***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** *************************
Cliff's kidnapping shocked the entire high-level of Ferry City, and the Lulin military was even more outraged that someone could kidnap such an important person and leave safely.

But as Filino said, given Cliff's important status and sensitivity, they chose to deal with it privately.They could not help but strictly block the news, and also eased the persecution of the resistance organizations in the city.

So for a while, the resistance organizations in Ferry City, which had been living like years, finally had a chance to take a breather.

Fortunately, many people even think that the situation is getting better again.However, they didn't know that the private situation in Ferry City was now on the verge of breaking out.

It was under such a situation that an unremarkable incident happened in the Sidvila Fortress on the west side of Ferry City.

For unknown reasons, an accidental fire broke out inside the fortress, and it spread uncontrollably, forcing the Lulin army stationed in the fortress to temporarily relocate.

Along with those Lu Lin troops, there were also the former officers of the Western Legion who had been imprisoned in the fortress.

Since there was no room to accommodate those officers temporarily, the Lulin people had no choice but to send them to a prison camp where only ordinary soldiers were held, so that soldiers and officers had a chance to get in touch.

However, everyone thought it was just an accident, and no one thought more from this situation.

At the same time, due to the impact of Cliff's kidnapping incident, when the report on the fire was sent to the military, it also did not attract enough attention.

The officer in charge of intelligence just glanced at it briefly, and when he saw the words "the fire has been extinguished and can be relocated after short-term repairs" in the report, he stuffed the report into the cabinet.

However, I am afraid that few people would think that this is the key to the turning point of the whole situation.

***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** *********************************
Ferry City, the hiding place of Sol and others.

"How is Sidwella's business? Is it going well?" Saul asked Chip after he came back.

Chip said: "It went well. The vigilance of the defenders was very low, and there was no suspicion that someone deliberately set the fire. Those officers were also transferred out, and as expected, they were locked up in the prison camp."

Thor clapped his hands excitedly: "Great, I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. It seems that those Lulin soldiers have been doing nothing for too long."

At this time, Das on the side said: "How about it, let's start to act."

Sol shook his head: "No, before that, you should make some preparations to be safe."

"What else do you need to prepare?" Gein asked in surprise.

Sol tapped his forehead: "First of all, we need to use the soldier named Sith to contact those officers, then we can respond internally and externally, and increase the confidence of saving people; in addition, the city of Ferry is still too peaceful now. I want to make it more chaotic, so we can arrange our teleportation array."

"Still coming? Don't you think the situation is not chaotic enough?" Walsa said in amazement.

Saul laughed loudly: "Of course, the more chaos the better for us."

He said: "However, it will take some time for Lowell to gather the soldiers. This matter is not busy yet. But we might as well use Cliff to stabilize those Lulin people first, and buy us some time. .”

"How stable?" Gein asked strangely.

Sol winked at the three of them: "Since everyone has been kidnapped, don't you want a ransom?"

The three of them were slightly taken aback, and then applauded in unison.They used Cliff to ask the Lulin people for a lot of money, and the other party would definitely pay back the money. This kind of back and forth would consume a lot of time.

"Hey, I like this kind of thing, just leave it to me, and I'll beat him to the Lulin people." Das rubbed his hands excitedly, and he didn't look like a prince.

Saul had no choice but to say: "It's up to you, but remember that we are not doing it for money, and we can procrastinate as long as we can."

"Don't worry, I will never suffer from doing this kind of thing." Das patted his chest.

"Then I'll check the preparations for the teleportation array," Walsa said.

Saul nodded: "Gein and I have to meet Serang, so everyone be careful."

***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** ***************************************************** *****************************************
Using Cliff's delaying strategy was really effective. Das started to contact Lulin as a kidnapper, and asked Cliff for an astronomical figure.

Although he was very annoyed by Sol's arrogance, for the sake of Cliff's safety, Lulin also had to deal with it carefully and began to negotiate with Darth.

In line with the principle of procrastination, Das kept changing the amount and requirements of the ransom, and patiently tested the patience of the Lulin people.

Lu Lin was naturally not stupid, trying to use this opportunity to catch the traces of Saul and others, so he kept asking for confirmation of Cliff's safety and negotiating with Das face to face.

In this way, the two sides have their own ghosts and continue to deal with each other skillfully.And the time was wasted little by little unconsciously.

Only Felino clearly knew that behind this so-called "ransom negotiation", there must be another mystery, and Sol's side was clearly delaying time on purpose.

However, he couldn't figure out what was the point of Sol's doing so.

The signs were already obvious. Sol did not have many people to sneak into Ferry City this time. Even if he added those resistance organizations, he was confident that this group of people would not be able to play any tricks.

So what was the use of his procrastination?
After all, Felino is not an omniscient and omnipotent god, so he never imagined that Sol was planning an amazing plan in Ferri City, a plan that could overturn the entire situation.

Therefore, after thinking hard to no avail, Felino believed that Sol must have reached the point where there was nothing he could do, so he had to kidnap Cliff to ensure his safety.

And what he is doing at this moment is just based on the idea of ​​"surviving for a while".

Since this is the case, then he, Ferino, is naturally happy to spend with Sol, because now he also has something to rely on.

One is an order sent to the front line. When this order arrives, a group of night shadows will rush back to Ferry City, and Sol will no longer be able to hide.

The second is the two legions that are gathering and preparing in Lulin. Once they enter Dinar, they will completely break the stalemate of the war.

So the longer it takes, the better it will be for him, Ferino, anyway, he will be the winner in the end.

As for Cliff's safety, Saul will not harm this shield for the time being.And when the overall situation is settled, it is not difficult to rescue him from these desperate guys.

"Hmph, interesting, do you want to procrastinate? Then I will fulfill your wish."

So, Felino thought so.
