Chapter 123: Barracks
"What?!" Regner was startled when he heard this.
"According to the information sent to me by the guild, you killed Balor at the end of the duel, cut off his head, and sent him back to the guild. Anne Lot stared at Regna and said, she tried to judge whether Regna's current expression was disguised, and to her relief, Regna didn't seem to be acting now, and it seemed that there was something inside to this matter.
"I didn't kill him, I didn't cut off his head!" Regner frowned, "He was indeed injured by me at the time, and he was also poisoned with paralyzing poison, but I believe that those injuries were not enough to kill him." At least, while I was gone, Barol was able to converse with me normally, though he couldn't move because of the poison. ”
"So, the guild is lying?" thought Annelot.
"I really didn't kill him, Annie, you have to believe me!" Regner looked a little excited, although Barol is an enemy, he is also Vera's own brother, and Regner also promised me Vera to let Barol live. Now that he has been inexplicably detained as the murderer and the contract breaker, he is naturally not in a very good mood. More importantly, what would Anne Lot think of him?
"I believe in you, you don't have to get excited. Annelot said lightly, "But what is going on?"
"Yes......" Regner mused, and suddenly he seemed to remember something, "I remember that when I was in Pato Town, Saron once tried to raid Sister Vera. At that moment, a dark shadow rushed out and helped her block Saron's attack. And, according to my judgment and that of Sister Vera, that black shadow is very similar to Balor. ”
"Dark Shadow?"
"Yes. Regner nodded and explained: "Baror's third attribute ability is the shadow clone, he can use the dark attribute energy to condense an entity clone, and the appearance is almost exactly the same as the black shadow at that time. ”
"Yes......" Anne Lott thought for a moment, "maybe you can ask Alex about this." ”
"Okay, I'll look for him when I get a chance. Regner agreed, asking about the internal affairs of the guild, and it must be right to find that uncle.
"Let's do this for now, let's investigate slowly, and don't tell Sister Vera yet. ”
"Of course. Regner agreed: "Let's go, I think the boss and they may all be in a hurry." ”
As soon as Regner pushed the door open, he found that Mallolet was in a hurry not far away, and Lishana and the others watched the old fellow turn around in a hurry, and they were a little confused, but because of their seniority, they did not dare to go up and ask.
When Regner came out, Malloret came over immediately, and although she didn't speak, the meaning in her eyes was very obvious: "How?"
Regner gave a thumbs up to Mallolet with an imperceptible movement, and then replied with "eye language": "She accepted the thing, although she is not very good towards you now, but I think the old man as long as you have a heart, you will definitely be able to move Anne, come on!"
"Good boy, I didn't misunderstand you!" said Mallorlet, too, with a thumbs up and a look in her eyes.
Anne Lott glanced at the two dancing fellows, and then went straight to Kordak.
Ah Lian was very discerning and hired two carriages at the door, although she was not very interested in the lord of the Wind Mansion, but the maid admired her own young lady Anne Lot. Since Miss Da came, the little maid's salary has only risen by ten silver coins per month, and the servants in the mansion have gradually increased, which not only reduces her workload, but also makes this Wind Mansion a little more popular, and gradually gets rid of the not-so-good name of "ghost house".
Although Malolette is a Swordmaster of the Wind, those who know him well know that Malolette is a very poor dog. Although this old fellow received a mansion from the empire last time, because he didn't do his job all day, Marolet couldn't afford to keep such a mansion at all. Before Annelot's arrival, there were only five servants in the Windwind Mansion, and three were directly rewarded by the Hawke Empire. As for the housekeeper or something, don't even think about it!
And all this did not change until Annelot's arrival, and the girl not only added a few servants to the mansion, but even a few cooks and gardeners, and the wages also increased a lot compared to before. It can be said that it was not until Annelot's arrival that Ah Lian felt that the mansion had the appearance of a mansion, and she became a servant of the nobility in the true sense.
Therefore, not only Ah Lian, but most of the people in the Wind Mansion have great respect for Annelot, and that posture seems to have regarded the girl as the real owner of this mansion. Malolet estimated that if her daughter had the intention to usurp the throne, ninety percent of the servants of the Swift Wind Mansion would have responded......
But the servants didn't know that Annelot did it only because she didn't want to feel like she was eating and drinking from Malloret.
"Thank you. Anne Lot said to Ah Lian, she actually likes this maid very much, as long as she lives in the Wind Mansion, Ah Lian will always take care of all her daily life in order, although the girl does not attach great importance to material enjoyment, but it is always good to have such a person who thinks about you to serve you wholeheartedly.
"It's an honor for Ah Lian to be able to serve Miss!" Ah Lian was also very happy, she saw that Anne Lott seemed to be in a good mood today, so she also said boldly: "Miss, I have a request. ”
"What?"
"If she could, Ah Lian would like to become Miss's personal maid and serve Miss's life exclusively. Ah Lian whispered: "Ah Lian doesn't need extra salary rewards, Ah Lian just wants to serve Miss...... I don't know, can I?"
Anne Lot looked at the little maid who was a little cramped, and said, "Why?"
"Because Mademoiselle is very good. Ah Lian said: "You are a genius magician, and you are the champion of the martial arts competition, and you are so beautiful, Ah Lian thinks it is a pleasure to serve you!"
Of course, these are all superficial statements by Ah Lian. In fact, deep down, Ah Lian also has the idea that she doesn't want a vulgar man like Regner or Kordak to provoke Miss. Hmph, if I'm by my side, don't think of messing with Mademoiselle again!
"Yes, I have no problem with this matter. "Mallorite came over, although this maid is usually fierce to people, but she has always been very respectful to Annelot, and even a little admired. Having such a lively maid by Annelot's side can just make up for Annelot's cold temperament, which should also be a good thing for the girl.
"So, okay. Anne Lot nodded: "In the future, I will work hard for you." ”
"It's not hard, it's not hard! Ah Lian is really happy to be able to serve the young lady!" the little maid jumped up happily.
In this way, Ah Lian followed Anne Lot and them into the carriage with a natural face.
Kordak's Independent Brigade was repaired on the outskirts of Melindel about twenty kilometers outside of Melindel, although there were also several Hawk Empire troops repairing near them. But if you look closely, it is not difficult to see that this independent brigade of Kordak is very far from the position of several other armies, and it is not known whether other comrades can isolate them, or if they themselves do not fit in......
But Kordak wasn't particularly surprised by the situation, having heard Alexander talk about Joffrey's little moves as early as last night. As for how the second prince would know, there is no need to say more. He's always going to leave some eyeliner in Melindel.
The layout of the barracks still looks a little shabby, and the makeshift fence roughly divides a vacant lot, in which a lot of tents are set up crookedly, even from a distance of dozens of meters, Kordak and the others can hear the noise coming from the barracks.
Seeing this, Vera and Alberon's faces were not particularly good, although they were not very old, they both knew the importance of discipline to the army. Although they are not as harsh as Alexander, if they are such a group of howling scoundrels, the rest of the day will not be easy......
On the contrary, it was Kordack, who was not too surprised by the scene in front of him because he had been vaccinated by Alexander.
A few people walked to the gate of the barracks, and thankfully, the guys still knew to leave a guard to stand guard. It's just that their slightly red eyes and faint smell of wine are a bit of a fly in the ointment.
"Stop! This is the barracks! Who are you? You can't enter without permission!" shouted the guard, tongue wide.
Kordaq leaned forward, and then couldn't help waving his hand: "It's just afternoon, and you've already drunk this virtue, what are you going to do at night?"
"Hey!" the guard seemed to have forgotten his duty, and he even chatted with Kordak: "We are unlucky today, not only do we always lose our fists, but we are also killed when we bet." No, it's just one afternoon, and I lost half of this month's salary, and I have to come and stand guard, which is really unlucky!"
"Oh, so there's anyone playing in there?" said Cordak, smiling.
"Of course, the Kuroko and the others are in good luck today, and I think I'm going to gamble for a night!" the guard said vaguely.
"Alright, let's go in and play two too. With that, Kordak beckoned the crowd to get ready to enter.
"Stop! Who the hell are you? this is a barracks!" the guard finally remembered his duty. But just as he was about to reach out to stop him, Alberon came behind him with a black face, and the young man knocked the incompetent guard unconscious with a precise blow of his sword.
PS: I really have a headache today, so it's only one update at noon, and it won't be updated at night, sorry, sorry.
