Chapter 54: Ellan Battier
"What's wrong?" Barol could tell that Kordaq seemed to realize something.
"No......" Kordaq shook his head, "It's nothing, it's just some personal matter." ”
"But now your private affairs have caused my sister to be kidnapped for no apparent reason!" Barol did not back down, he stood up, although he was slightly lower than Kordak, but at this time, he had an unprecedented momentum because he desperately wanted to protect someone.
"......" Cordak was silent for a moment, but he still shook his head firmly: "No, I can't fully trust you right now, so I won't admit anything......"
"You guy!!" Barol let out a low growl, grabbing Kordak by the collar and pushing him back hard, "Sister is in danger now, you know?"
"Don't worry, if Alfred really took her captive, he would definitely use Vera against me. There was absolutely no way he could hurt Vera easily. Kordak was not angry at all, although he was a little manic in his heart now, but he knew that the more times like this, the more he needed to calm down.
"What are you going to do next?" Barol glared at Kordak hatefully, but he also knew that it was useless to be angry at this time, so he could only calm down and ask Kordak what he planned to do next.
"......" Cordak thought for a moment, then replied, "If I was really targeted by Alfred, I think I was really unlucky this time." ”
"And you're going to take my sister's life at the risk?" asked Balor coldly.
"Of course not. Kordak shook his head.
"How about going to Regner and asking him to figure it out?"
"No, I can't. Kordak shook his head: "This matter can't bother Ray, we don't have any evidence right now that Alfred kidnapped Vera." Because you can't be on the stage. ”
"You can't be on stage!" Barol scolded angrily.
"So this matter can't be made public, and there is no way to negotiate it openly. Kordak ignored Barol, and he continued to analyze: "And secretly, if Xiao Lei uses the power of the MI, it would be better to find Vera. But it is more likely that he can't find it, and once he can't find it, then it is not a small crime for him to use the power of the imperial intelligence agency to investigate the imperial prime minister. Then the two of us might be finished together!"
"And what are you going to do?" asked Barrol, impatiently.
"This is something that I can only do on my own. Kordak thought for a moment, and then replied, "Once Xiao Lei comes in, he will definitely make a mess, and I can't trouble him." ”
"Are you sure?"
"Nope. Whether Xiao Lei comes or not, I'm not sure. ”
"......" Barol was silent for a moment, he suddenly thought of a question, so he asked, "How many people know about my sister leaving alone to find Regner?"
"???" Kordaq was also stunned when he heard it. Yes, Vera's departure was a relatively secret matter, except for a few captains and mages in the corps, Kordaq did not make this matter known to the whole city. Did Alfred meet Vera by chance, or was it premeditated?
Kordaq told Barol about his analysis.
"It can't be a coincidence. Barol replied affirmatively: "That ambush was obviously well prepared, and they may have even been with their sister for a long time." So, it definitely can't be a coincidence. ”
"How the hell did that leak out......" Kordaq frowned. Not many people know about it, but it's not just two or three. Kuroko had been dead for almost a month, and it was a good brother of Kuroko who took over his position as captain, and Kordak was clear about his character.
If it weren't for him, Rondo's shitty day would have been even more impossible. Alberon ...... This kid doesn't have an ordinary relationship with himself, no. Could it be those mages who accompany the team?Kordak also shook his head, although they were all chosen by Joffrey, but these guys are usually rebellious, if it weren't for the shock of Annielot's father and daughter, Kordak would not have the confidence to control them easily. As for informant for Alfred, it's unlikely.
Kordaq thought about it for a long time, but in the end he couldn't find the most ideal answer. He waved his hand irritably: "I'll think about this matter myself." As for you, you ......"
"What I want to do has nothing to do with you, and you have no power to control me. Balor stood up, and he said seriously: "You leave this matter to me first, if I can investigate my sister's whereabouts and even rescue her directly, won't you have nothing to do here?"
"Hey!" Kordak hurriedly grabbed Balor: "Alfred is not so easy to deal with, you can easily die if you go over like this!"
A smile tugged at Balor's dark lips, his body softened for a moment, and Kordak felt as if water had slipped through his fingers, and by the time he came back to his senses, Balor was out of his grasp.
"You seem to have forgotten that I'm a shadow creature. Barol said bitterly, "Do you know what the characteristics of shadow creatures are?"
“......”
"We are very difficult to destroy, as long as we are not injured by the powerful light energy, we are almost immortal. Barol said, his body slowly softening like mud. He left Kordak's tent like a pool of moving sewage. Before leaving, Kordak seemed to hear Barol say softly, "So, don't worry about me...... Brother-in-law. ”
......
That was the second and last meeting between Cordak and Balor. Kordaq waited for more than a month, but Barol seemed to have evaporated from the earth, and there was no news from him after that night. Sometimes Kordak even wondered if Barol had been there that night, if he was dreaming?
But Vera's inexplicable disappearance is also an indisputable fact. Although Kordak didn't seem to have changed much on the surface, Lanmir, who had been following him, was clearly aware of Kordak's distraction. But no matter what Ranmir asked, Kordaq never said anything.
Kordak had been thinking about whether to tell Regner about these things, and he had already made up his mind that if he heard the news of Ragner's return to Melindel, he would contact him, not necessarily to tell the whole story, but at least to use his power to find out the truth.
But Kordak didn't expect that before he had written his letter, another news that shocked him came. That is, Anne Lot's life and death are unknown......
This sudden news shocked Kordak again, and the news completely dispelled his idea of asking Regner for help. Since both of them are in trouble because of their own women's affairs, let's go their separate ways first!
In the end, what helped Kordak make a decision was a letter, and after seeing the letter from an unknown source, Kordak finally made up his mind, briefly explained to Rondo and Aberon, and then left the Independence Brigade alone.
......
After waking up, Kordak felt that he was in good shape, and the alcohol had long since faded in his sleep. Although I had a dream, I was just in time to review what happened during this period of time. Looking at the sky, it was night, and it didn't seem to be midnight yet. So Kordak decided to go downstairs and recharge a little more energy.
The same beef and bread, only this time Kordaq didn't ask for wine. After eating and drinking, Kordaq waited for another two hours, after making sure that the food had been digested and that the people were falling asleep. Kordaq finally got into his own way.
Boom!
Kordak fell to the ground like a bear falling from a tree, and the brawny man hurried out of the place before anyone could notice.
This is a large city called Panda in the province of Semrela. The city was already relatively rich in the province of Semrela, but Kordaq didn't really care about it. He cared more about the lord of the city, a guy named Elan, Elan Battier. He was Alfred's nephew, but was often seen as the heir to the Rollin family.
Yes, the future heir to the Rollin family is not Alfred's only son, Aditto Rollin. It's this man named Ellan Battier.
And the reason why this is only happening is because Edito Rollin is a straw bale. Although Alfred has always been known for his scheming, no one has to admit that such a shrewd man could give birth to such a straw bale son.
Originally, Alfred also had high hopes for Editto, but this guy completely crushed the old fox's illusions with repeated mistakes. So Alfred could only set his sights on Ellan Battier, who was five or six years younger than Eidito, but smarter and more shrewd than him. This guy is the son of Alfred's sister, but strangely enough, Alfred's sister, Sansa Rollin, has never had a husband. So, Elam is really just an illegitimate child.
In addition to this, it is said that this Elan is very similar to Alfred when he was younger, and almost a mold comes out immediately......
Alfred has a younger brother and three younger sisters, so even the most idiotic person can guess that this old fox must have quite a few bastards. As for nephews and nephews, I'm afraid there are even more numerous.
But even with so many descendants, in the eyes of the current people, there is a good chance that the future heir of the Rollin family will fall on Elam. Otherwise, how could Alfred put a nephew in such a position as the city lord?
What Kordak has to do is simple, he wants to kidnap Elan and then use Elan to exchange Vera for Alfred. While there are too many risks involved, Kordak has no other choice right now. Ever since Vera's disappearance, Alfred had not seen anything other than a letter, and he couldn't imagine what Alfred was planning. So he had to take the initiative, even if it was reckless, but he had to disrupt Alfred's rhythm.
Cordak knew very well that if everything was to go its way, he would be the one to lose. So, Kordak is here, ready to carry out his first infiltration mission in his life.
