Lord Highlander

  Chapter 634 623. Revealed

  Ned Morse put on a set of magic pattern structure and walked in from the outside, and his momentum suddenly became a little different.

To be able to have a set of magic patterns at such a young age obviously cannot do without the support of the family. There are not a few young nobles like Ned Morse in the Bena Guard Camp. It's actually not that difficult to comprehend your own 'power' and break through the bottleneck.

Next to Ned are fourteen knights wearing the same magic-weave outfit. These knights in the outfit are the backbone of the Benar Guard Battalion. They serve as squadron leaders or deputy squadron leaders in the security battalion. Kincaid The constructed knights called by the viscount are all the squadron leaders of the second brigade. These knights are very familiar with Ned Morse. After sitting down at the round table in the conference room, they began to laugh and chat and joke.

  Suldak was sitting by the round table. Apparently, some of the constructed knights who came in recognized his identity and talked with the knights around him in private.

   "Ned Morse, you called everyone over at this time, are you going to invite us to the tavern for a drink?" A constructed knight walked in from outside in a hurry.

  Before the person entered the door, the voice came in from the door first. When he saw that there were many squadron leaders from other squadrons sitting in the meeting room, he asked in a daze, "Why are you all there?"

  A squadron leader next to him patted him on the shoulder, laughed and said, "Gonza, you're a bit late, we'll be waiting for you."

   "Since everyone is here, let's start!" Viscount Kincaid walked in from the door, sat at the head of the round table, and said to everyone.

The female assistant behind her was holding a parchment map and a sketch portrait of Jack Kennelly, and quickly hung them on the wall behind the meeting room. This parchment map showed the city of Bena and the area around the airport terminal There are even some small notes written by Viscount Kincaid with a quill pen on it, and a person's name is written at the end of each line of small characters.

   Viscount Kincaid knocked on the table, even Gonza shut his mouth, and the conference hall fell silent.

  Fifteen squadron leaders were all dressed in magicweave outfits and sat upright on the chairs.

  Viscount Kincaid turned around and pointed at the sketched portrait on the wall with a short stick in his hand, and began to introduce the origin of Baron Jack Kennelly to everyone.

   Then he talked about Jack Kennelly's recent frequent contact with Baron Harvey of the Gophero family, suspecting that he might be a gang of liars pretending to be the Kennelly family to cheat.

  A constructed knight sitting on the seat closest to Viscount Kincaid said: "Such liars appear every year, and the most difficult thing to check is their identity."

Another construction knight also nodded and said in agreement: "Unless the stolen goods are obtained at the same time, sometimes the fakes will become real after investigation. In the end, we are embarrassed, and sometimes we have to withstand the pressure from above, forced to interrupt, and finally swept away." Gold coins, and they will go to the parliament of the House of Representatives to scold us as trash. This kind of scam is like a piece of shit, you can shake it off if you get it on it, and you can’t shake it off. No matter what you do, it will make you smell like shit. Being deceived, for the sake of the family's reputation, the family's private army will be dispatched to solve it in private, and some declining families simply consider themselves unlucky."

   Obviously, in the eyes of the squadron leaders, the Gophero family is more in line with the second situation. They were cheated and unable to get the money back, so they could only consider themselves unlucky.

Ned Morse glanced at Suldak, and then said: "Those people were deceived because they were blindfolded by gold coins, but since we found out, we can't let these scammers have nothing to do in the city of Benar." We have to teach them a lesson, at least let them understand that Bena City is not a place where they can come and leave whenever they want."

   "That's right, Ned Morse!" The other squadron leaders echoed.

Kincaid gave Squadron Captain Ned Morse an approving glance, and then continued his topic and said, "I need you to send people to keep an eye on these liars, including placing some human surveillance at the hotel, including at various city gates. The exits, airport docks and other places have been guarded by some people, and when he shows his feet, he will immediately arrest them."

After finishing speaking, he stood up, pointed at Suldak who was sitting at the end of the round table, and said: "This is Baron Suldak, I believe that everyone here may know him, this liar is Baron Suldak I found out, and I want everyone to cooperate actively to confine Baron Jack Kennelly to Bena City."

  The squadron leaders sitting in front of the round table immediately stood up and said, "Yes!"

Everyone sat back and started discussing their respective defense zones together. Viscount Kincaid had already written the name of the squadron leader on the map of Bena City. Everyone quickly understood their own defense zones. Some people thought it was unnecessary to make it so complicated , Just go directly to the hotel to arrest people, but many people think it's better to wait and see what happens.

   At this time, a knight walked quickly to Ned Morse and whispered something in his ear.

"So fast?" Ned Morse looked at Suldak with some surprise, and then said to Viscount Kincaid and the others: "Captain, Baron Jack Kennelly left the hotel alone, and now the only person in the hotel is There are a few servants left, no one knows where Baron Jack Kennelly went!"

   "You immediately lead someone to arrest the servants of the Kennelly family in the hotel." Viscount Kincaid said to Squadron Captain Ned Morse.

  Then the other squadron leaders said: "The rest of the people went to guard the gate of Bena City, Gonzal, Witt, Baron Suldak, you also go to the airport terminal with me, I hope we can still make it in time!"

  Due to sudden changes in the situation, the meeting ended hastily.

  Suldak has not received any news from Aphrodite, so he knew that Aphrodite had guessed it again this time.

  He guessed that Jack Kennelly might not have the patience to wait until dark before leaving, but he didn't expect that he left all the servants in the city of Bena and hurriedly left the city of Bena alone.

  Worried that Jack Kennelly would sneak away, Suldak went to the guard camp for help, and Aphrodite was watching over the hotel.

   It is estimated that Aphrodite should be following Jack Kennelly at this time, so he is not in a hurry.

Before leaving, he made an agreement with Aphrodite that if Baron Jack Kennelly was accompanied by a large number of people, she would summon him in advance, and after obtaining the specific location, let him find a way to bring the knights of the guard battalion rush over.

   But if Jack Kennelly takes the order, then Aphrodite will follow quietly, find a suitable place to attack, and summon him alone.

  Suldak couldn't get away at this time, so he could only follow Viscount Kincaid to the airport terminal.

  At the hotel in the city, Squadron Captain Ned Morse led a team of guard battalion knights to deal with the group of servants left behind by Jack Kennelly.

  …

   It was Baron Harvey Gophero who discovered that Jack Kennelly was missing.

This guy rented ten of the largest warehouses at the airport wharf outside the city in the morning, and rushed back to the hotel at noon, preparing to have lunch with Baron Jack Kennelly, before talking about the arrival of the first batch of wheat in Bena City. , what more preparatory work needs to be done.

  Baron Harvey Gophero rushed back to the hotel excitedly, just in time to see the servants of the Kennelly family leaving the hotel with their luggage in a panic.

It was as if a ladle of ice water was poured down from the top of his head, and his heart was instantly drenched. No matter how slow Harvey was, he realized that something was wrong at this moment. He ignored the obstruction of others and rushed directly into Baron Jack Kennelly. room, only to realize that Jack Kennelly was missing.

Harvey slammed a set of silver teapots in the hotel on the carpet in the room. The manager of the hotel was so frightened that he quickly remembered that if the silver teapot was broken, he would have to pay for the original price. Why should someone run away and smash the hotel? property in.

  People who can open a hotel in an aristocratic area are of course nobles with a background. The hotel manager can't provoke Baron Harvey Gophero, but it doesn't mean that the big boss of this hotel is also afraid of him.

Harvey sat in the room slumped, and it took him a while to realize that he had to find a way to remedy it. This time, in order to support the wheat business, the Gophero family had taken away the last batch of magic crystals in the vault. When it comes out, there are funds from other family members’ shareholdings. When raising money, Harvey patted his chest to ensure that there will be no problems. It is just a temporary turnaround. He only waits for the first batch of wheat to arrive in Bena City, and he will be able to repay everyone immediately. principal.

  Now Harvey feels like the sky is about to fall.

   Only then hastily reported the news of being deceived to the guard battalion...

  …

  Suldak followed the guard battalion knights to the airport terminal outside Bena City. It can be said that these guard battalion knights are still somewhat efficient when they are serious about their work.

After checking all the magic airships that were about to depart from the airport terminal, they did not find any trace of Baron Jack Kennelly. The knights of the guard battalion began to expand the search area at the airport terminal, mainly to investigate the magic caravans entering and leaving the airport terminal. The guard battalion knights investigated some clues.

Suldak followed the team of knights in the guard battalion, and followed everyone on horseback for most of the day. Baron Jack Kennelly disappeared in the warehouse area of ​​the airport pier. No one saw where he left. .

  The roads on the side of the airport pier extend in all directions. Although a heavy snow has hindered the land transportation, it is only a large convoy. Some magic caravans and horse teams are still going back and forth between cities under the wind and snow.

Viscount Kincaid held the horse's rein with one hand, snorted unwillingly, and said to Suldak: "It's still a step too late, let this guy slip out of the city early, everyone has been busy for a long time, let's take a rest first, find Find a place to eat, and look for clues later!"

  For the guard battalion, this kind of thing happens several times a year.

  Now that the person has successfully left the city of Bena, the investigation will continue, but there is no need to be so urgent.

  Suldak quickly said to Viscount Kincaid: Everyone has worked hard for a long time, so I should invite the knights for this meal.

The airport terminal outside the city of Bena has gradually become a transfer station for materials. Therefore, there are not only slums but also a large warehouse at the airport terminal. There are also some hotels and restaurants next to the airport terminal. Airport passengers are provided with food and lodging.

The largest restaurant is located next to the airport pier. It is located on the second floor of the restaurant with the best view. You can just see the high tower on the airport pier. Magical airships are hovering on the platform next to the high tower. The scenery is quite Spectacular.

This is the most upscale restaurant in the airport pier. Suldak chose the best location on the second floor. When ordering, it was also the top-level set meal of Warcraft ingredients in the restaurant. Although after seeing the price written on the menu, Suldak Ke was a little stunned, but he still ordered the top set meal for everyone.

  The top-level packages of these monster ingredients are almost all settled in gold coins.

  The squadron leaders under Viscount Kincaid saw Suldak spend a lot of money, and the last bit of complaints against him in their hearts disappeared at the dinner table.

   Plates of exquisite food were brought from the kitchen by the waiter in the restaurant, but Suldak heard the summoning signal from Aphrodite.

  He quickly stood up from his seat and asked the restaurant waiter where the bathroom was...
