Harden took a shallow sip of tea, and it was already late at night. But he needed to lift his spirits, because tonight, he was hunting the eaglet of the Hawke Empire.

Although all the orders had been given, tonight was destined to be an extraordinary night, and he always felt that something unexpected would happen.

"With your little brain, it's still a little tender to play with me. Harden shook his head away the faint sense of foreboding in his heart, and then muttered to himself.

He knew Alexander's intentions, and this clever lad would certainly not be so stupid as to sabotage only two convoys.

Through the analysis of previous intelligence, Harden can see that this young man has extraordinary courage. After getting the information of the convoy, he will definitely make a move, and it will be a big move. Harden had previously carefully studied the routes of the two convoys, and then he marked the places where Alexander might have shot. After a series of comparative analyses, Harden came to a conclusion.

That is, if you manage to return to the two convoys in the rear, it will inevitably lead to the emptiness of the guards of a stronghold. And that stronghold is Stoke's important transportation hub - Pato Town. So, Harden thinks there's a 70 percent chance that Alexander will be there.

And the intelligence that came back a few minutes ago also confirmed Harden's speculation. The town of Pato has been attacked by the elite squad of the Hawk Empire and is currently engaged in fierce battles with the enemy.

And his idea was to drive Alexander's three teams together and serve them in one pot. Everything is in its own calculations, and nothing is wrong.

It should have been a perfect plan, but Harden always had a little unease in his heart. He didn't know what was going on?Is there any weakness in this plan?Impossible, by his command, Alexander's three troops will inevitably come together, and as long as they gather together in the town of Pato. What awaits this group of enemies is a brutal and merciless slaughter.

Although it was a few hundred lives in exchange for the lives of these three squads, there were only a few dozen lives. But in terms of the quality of the warriors, it is still very worthwhile to exchange a few hundred low-level fighters for dozens of mid-level and high-level warriors. And, more importantly, there is Alexander among these dozens of people, and in Harden's opinion, to be able to kill Alexander, he would rather lose two cavalry regiments.

Although this young man is not yet twenty years old, because of his amazing performance on the battlefield and his status as a member of the orthodox royal family, the northerners of the entire battlefield will be demoralized by his presence.

If he dies, the combat effectiveness of the Hawk Empire is likely to be reduced by one percent! Even the royal family of the Stoke Empire has made a bounty, killing Alexander, not only can he get the count title of the Stoke Empire, but also the corresponding fief and a reward of 50,000 gold coins. This kind of bounty is already close to catching up with General Manhattan, the supreme commander of the southern battlefield of the Hawke Empire.

Manhattan, on the other hand, served Héctor's father, Duke Trum, the former king Héctor, and the current king of the Hawke Empire, Ralvin the Great. Strictly speaking, he is already a veteran of the three dynasties, a veteran in his seventies, but how old is Alexander? Therefore, all the Stoke people believe that if Alexander is given a certain amount of time, he will become the most terrible enemy of the Stoke Empire.

So tonight, Alexander must die!

"All the planning revolved around Alexander, and I didn't miss a single detail. There's no going to be wrong!" Harden said to himself.

However, he forgot one detail. That is, his plan was so directed at Alexander that he forgot about the people around him. This is something that can't be helped, the light of the Holy Golden Eagle in the Chino continent is really extremely dazzling. It can be said that individuals ignore the existence of others because of his brilliance. Ignore...... Even in the dazzling light, there was a dark and quiet shadow.

And tonight, he will pay a terrible price for this small mistake of his own.

"My lord, there is new information. There was a knock at the door.

"Come in. Harden said that probably because of his long career in intelligence, he always likes to be alone. So tonight, he didn't leave any attendants in his office, only an attendant at the door who was waiting for his orders.

"Go and fill up the tea. Harden took the note and said casually.

The information is very simple, although there have been warnings and adequate preparations. But in the end, one convoy was destroyed by the Hawk Empire, and all the supplies were burned. But for now, the group is moving in the direction they expected, and it is estimated that they will be driven to the vicinity of Pato Town within an hour.

"It's just a small loss. Harden smiled, and then shook the note into powder with a vindictive spirit. He took another sip of the freshly filled tea, and then suddenly felt that something was wrong.

"Who are you?" Harden raised his head and asked coldly the waiter who was about to turn around and leave, because it was then that he realized that this waiter actually had a tenth-level fighting spirit. But the waiter who was registered by himself didn't have any fighting spirit at all, this guy was wrong!

The waiter's body shook, and then slowly turned his head. He lifted his head, revealing his eyes, which were covered by long bangs.

That's when Harden really observed the "waiter." He was not very big, he belonged to the kind of thin man, his hair was blue-black, his face was delicate, with a bit of childishness, he turned out to be a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.

"Can't you put it on?" muttered to the waiter as he looked at Harden.

"Snow?" Harden was slightly stunned.

"Surprised?" said the teenager named Snow looked at Harden with a mocking look.

"Not yet. Harden smiled, he pointed at Snow and said, "I knew you wouldn't be able to bear it, but I didn't expect you to endure it until today." ”

"Only when you are sure, will you make a move, isn't this what you taught me?" Snow looked at Harden, suddenly his eyes flashed with a fierce light, and he gritted his teeth and said, "In the same way, I also taught my sister the same!"

"Sure enough, it's because of her. Harden said lightly that he knew why Snow, who had always been honest and obedient, was disobedient at this time.

This guy has been dependent on his sister since he was a child, and once she dies, Snow will really live if he doesn't do something. A dead soldier is still a human being after all, and it is impossible for feelings to be completely extinguished. Harden continued, "But you have to be clear, Ratty died at the hands of the Northerners, and I didn't touch a single hair of her. ”

"If you hadn't sent her to assassinate Ralvin, how could she have died?!It's all you!It's all you!You've killed my sister!" Snow suddenly yelled hysterically with red eyes.

"She died only because of her own incompetence!" Harden said coldly, "and even if she assassinated Ralvin, she wouldn't be able to survive in that besieged palace." This is something that was predestined a few years ago, you are the dead soldiers I have cultivated, and when you decide to follow me, your fate has already been written!"

"Death?!fate?!" Snow said a little frantically, "In your eyes, we are just tools, are we just tools?"

"Or what do you think you are?" Harden took it for granted: "I gave you a bite to eat and let you survive, and now, you are giving me your life in return, and the transaction is like this." ”

"......" Snow was silent, although he also knew what he should do as a dead soldier, but he didn't expect his life to be so cheap. Just two pieces of bread can be exchanged for two intact people, two young and glorious lives?

"Okay, don't talk to me here about what you don't have nutritious. Harden said impatiently: "Your poison doesn't work for me, don't forget, who taught you what you want to make poison." ”

"......" Snow was still silent, but his hand reached behind his back, where his weapon was located.

"You should know that, in my opinion, betrayal is a very shameful thing. Harden looked at the nervous Snow with a playful look: "So, I'm not going to kill you outright, you're going to have a more painful experience than hell before you go to hell to see your sister, I promise you." ”

"Die!" Snow pulled out his dagger and lunged at Harden with a roar.

Harden looked at the self-conscious Snow and let out a mocking laugh. The high-ranking assassin grabbed Snow's wrist accurately, and then placed his right hand between Snow's chest and abdomen.

Harden, who is well-versed in the art of killing, is also very knowledgeable about the human physique, and he knows that once that position is infused with vindictive energy, it will cause unimaginable pain.

Sure enough, although Harden was only a little light, Snow immediately let out a roar of pain like a beast. He threw away the weapon in his hand, and then lay on the ground clutching his stomach and kept rolling.

This kind of pain will last for more than ten minutes, and basically, if you are tortured like this three times in a row, you will be painful to death. It's a tried-and error-based stat from Harden, and it looks like new data might be added to his database tonight.

"Actually, I like your sister more. Harden smiled at Snow rolling on the ground, and he deliberately used vindictiveness to send the sound directly into Snow's ears, and then continued: "At least she is much more obedient than you." ”

"Ahh

"Well, that's where you get out. I remember when I asked her to give her body before she left, she obediently did so, not at all like you, yelling at her master. Harden had an elegant smile on his face, but his mouth spat out vicious words that made Snow crazy: "I have to say, even if I think about it now, I will admire the tenderness and deliciousness of your sister's body." Oh, don't worry, I've never been a waster. So, after I was comfortable, there were a few soldiers who happened to pass by, and I also let them share this, and I think you can rest assured of this. ”

"Bastard!!!Harden, you brute!!!!I'm going to kill you!!I'm going to kill you!!!I'm going to kill you!! Harden!!!" Snow continued to growl in pain, completely unaware that his vocal cords were about to be destroyed.

"It seems that it is time for you to be quiet. Harden said as he bent down to pick up Snow's dagger, he was going to cut off Harden's tongue and vocal cords, so that this guy would not be here in the middle of the night to disturb the rest of the people.

But just as Harden was approaching Snow, an extremely blurry black shadow suddenly came over and flew straight towards Harden's back!
