Chapter Seventy-Two: Ice Release Suspicions

"Is it still here after all?" Kordak looked at Regner and couldn't help but smile wryly: "I know that it's time for you to fall into this field." Come on, but it's absolutely impossible to get Lao Tzu to bow down to you!"

"Tell me the truth. Regner said with a blank face.

"The truth is what you see, what do you suspect now?" said Kordak, as if he hadn't understood what Regner meant.

"Tell me!" Regner roared suddenly, feeling that everyone was lying to him, whether it was an enemy or a companion. Kordak ...... No matter what happens, he always wants to take it on his own, and he always wants to keep Regner in his way.

Sometimes Regner was really moved, but the feeling of being kept in the dark also annoyed him. What the fuck! Dark Elegy, who should have had the most intelligence information, has become the most ignorant person in this bureau!

The reason for this situation is actually because of the loopholes in the Costa Fortress. To fill that hole, Regner basically put all of his energy into that aspect. Coupled with the fact that the northern barbarians had begun to move south, the piles of things made Regner no longer have the energy to pay attention to the problem of a small corps and a small lieutenant in the south.

And it was precisely because of the disappearance of this lieutenant named Vera that led to this series of events. By now, not only the military, but even the entire Hawke Empire has been in an uproar because of this incident.

Kordak saw Regner's angry look, and knew where he got the truth. In fact, this is quite normal, this kind of acting can deceive him for a while, and Kordak does not expect to be able to hide it from Regner forever with the events of that night.

"If you really know, why do you want me to repeat it?" Cordak understood that he couldn't hold it anymore, so he sighed and asked retorted, a little helplessly.

"I want you to tell me personally!" Regner said word for word as he stared at Kordak with murderous eyes.

"......" Kordaq was silent, only shaking his head slightly.

"Why?!" Regner suddenly asked loudly, "Why did you hide everything from me?Why didn't you let me know?Why didn't you let me help??!"

Kordak calmly listened to Regner's repeated questions, and because of the emptiness, the entire dungeon echoed with Regna's echoes. The voices sounded like endless accusations to Kordak, and they never stopped. But even so, even if he was puzzled by Regner and complained by Ragner, Kordaq never felt that he had done anything wrong.

The echo finally disappeared, but the cell was not completely silent, as Regner was gasping violently as if he had been through a high-intensity exercise, and the entire dungeon was filled with the sound of his heavy breathing.

"I, Kordak, have lived for more than twenty years. Kordak looked at Regner quietly for a moment, and then finally spoke: "There are two brothers who are the most important thing in my eyes. ”

"One is my young master, Khloe Smith of the Smith Chamber of Commerce, later known as Selenos. Cordak said expressionlessly, "It's a pity that he died." ”

"......" Regner still didn't speak.

"That feeling...... Cordak said bitterly, recalling the scene when he saw Selenos' broken body, "I definitely don't want to experience that feeling a second time." ”

"So what about ......"

"So......" Cordak looked at Regner, and then said, "so in order to prevent such a thing from happening again, I can only do everything I can to keep my second brother from any danger." Whether that guy doesn't understand, whether it's anger, whether it's pain, whether it's sad, it's up to him to do whatever he wants! But no matter what, Lao Tzu will never let him die in front of me. You can call me selfish, but no matter how many times I am given a chance, I will repeat the same approach to my second brother. I'm not going to change that! And that guy ...... It's you...... Ray. ”

"Old ...... ...... "Regner finally called back the familiar and pleasant name, and in his heart, it was only right to call Kordak that way, and this did not change even after being betrayed by Kordak.

"Little Thunder...... I'm sorry......" Kordaq sincerely apologized.

"Boss......" The hard, cold piece of Regner's heart finally melted.

"Alright!" Ranmir's voice came from the back of the dungeon, and she impatiently interrupted the warm conversation between the two men, and then glanced at the two of them with a strange gaze, "How do I think the relationship between the two of you is getting more disgusting the more I look at it?"

"Understand! This is a relationship that only a man can understand!" Cordak and Regnar said in unison, although something had happened before, but it didn't cause any estrangement between the two of them, and now the two guys seemed to be more synchronized.

"That's enough! this is not the time for you two to play tricks!" Ranmill ruthlessly interrupted the two men again, and then she turned to look at Kordak in the cell, "Kordak, do you understand your current situation?"

"Desperate situation. Kordaq summed it up in two simple words, and then he asked, as if he were greeting him normally, "I said why are you here?"

"You know it's a desperate situation, you can still be so leisurely?!" Ranmir's brain-piercing voice was no less than Vera's, and she pointed to Kordak's nose with tears in her eyes and said, "Look at what you have become, what have you done? For the sake of that woman, are you really there?"

"......" Cordak was silent for a moment, and then he asked seriously, "If that person were you, I said I would do the same thing, do you believe it?"

"I believe it. Ranmir replied without hesitation, if she didn't believe it, she wouldn't have slipped out of Manhattan's surveillance at the time. It's not because of how deep Kordak's affection for Rammill is, it's just because Kordak once promised to help her. As long as this is around, Kordak will do a lot of things.

"......" Ranmir's simple turn made Kordak's old face blush, and he glanced at Regna in embarrassment, and found that Regnar was looking at him with considerable admiration, and for a moment the great man's superiority was spontaneously born.

"So. Ranmeer wiped the corners of his eyes and said, "Before I left, I asked Grandpa to get you and Vera out anyway." ”

"What did you say?" Kordaq was stunned.

"I asked Grandpa to save you!" Although Ranmir felt very ashamed that he was able to save people with the strength of his elders, but judging from the current situation, this was the only solution.

She had to talk about it to get Alberon to let him go, and the freed Ranmere went straight to Ocean Tide City, where Manhattan was currently located. Then he coquettishly scolded his grandfather, and after receiving his grandfather's reluctant consent, Ranmir rushed over to contact Regner.

If Manhattan can intervene and Regner can help out, then it shouldn't be difficult to rescue two people, which is Ranmir's plan.

However, Kordak fell into deep thought after hearing Ranmir's words......

......

Although Haichao City is a southern city, because of its proximity to the sea, the temperature is still very low in winter.

But these things are obviously not something that Manhattan needs to worry about, and as a field marshal in charge of the Empire's military power, it is simply normal to get a warm and comfortable room.

"My lord, the hot water is ready, you can wash up at any time. The adjutant said respectfully.

"Okay, thank you. Manhattan put down the book in his hand and nodded.

But the adjutant still stood at the door and did not go out.

"If there's anything you say, you've been with me for twenty years, don't you know my temper?" Manhattan said with a smile.

"Your Excellency......" The adjutant gritted his teeth, and he whispered, "You...... Do you really want to do that?"

"Otherwise, what would Kordak do? Without that kid, Ranmir is afraid that he will mess with me until I get into the coffin!" Manhattan clearly knew what the lieutenant was talking about.

"But...... This is very unfair to adults!" The adjutant suddenly mustered up the courage to raise his head: "You have made great contributions to the Duke and the Empire, but now, you have to give up everything for such a ridiculous reason, I ...... I can't understand it!"

"Nothing incomprehensible. Manhattan smiled, he didn't rebuke the lieutenant for his perverse remarks about the Empire, nor did he engage in secret conversations there as if he had found a confidant. The old general just said lightly: "I have nothing to do with the empire or the past grievances. I'm just acting as a grandfather to help my only granddaughter. ”

"But......" The adjutant couldn't help but argue: "If Alfred is satisfied again, he will definitely ......"

"That old fox is not a man who does not know what to do, and if I put on such a posture, he will not do much more. Because even if he is shameless, the empire still needs to be faceless. Manhattan said lightly: "I admit that I would love to kill him, but I can't, I have waited for twenty years without a chance." In that case, it's better to give up as soon as possible. ”

"Why?" The adjutant wondered, could the revenge of the loss of a child be laughed at by Manhattan?

"Kids. Although the lieutenant was in his forties, Manhattan patted him on the shoulder as he did a young man: "If you have one person in your heart, one who is the only person you have in your life, you will understand that you will give up a lot of things for her." ”

"Including hatred?" the lieutenant asked.

"Yes. Manhattan nodded: "I owe Lammeel a lot, I'm not a good grandfather, and I didn't give her a full family." And now if there is a person who can make up for the mistakes I made back then, then I would be happy to do something for that person in return. ”

The "......" adjutant knew that Manhattan had already made up his mind at this time, and having followed Manhattan for twenty years, the adjutant naturally knew that once Manhattan made any decision, it would not be able to be changed. So he stopped persuading, but still stood there with some resentment.

"Don't feel sorry for me. Manhattan seemed to be comforted and said, "If it weren't for the fight with that old fox, I'm afraid I would have found a quiet place to retire." Now that things have turned out like this this time, I can just find a reason to quit justifiably. I've been busy for decades, and it's good to find a place to take a break now. How much more do I have my granddaughter and her new family with me?"

“......”

"As for Alfred. A little coldness flashed in Manhattan's eyes when he mentioned the name: "This old fox is indeed not simple, but he has made a mistake. ”

"What's wrong?"

"He's messing with someone he shouldn't be messing with. ”

"Who?"

"He's not very smart, but he's lucky, and that luck has made him an almost invincible stinky boy. As Manhattan said this, he remembered the first time he met the young man who looked giggling. What the hell did this guy do to get so many horrible people to stand by his side?
