Chapter Eighty-Five: Albert's Joining
"Based on the information you stolen, we learned that a big man has recently come to the battlefield on this side of the west. Alexander glanced at the Kordak and began to explain the contents of the mission.
"Oh?" Kordak had stolen the information, but they hadn't peeked at it on the way back, and it was a military secret after all.
"He's brought a lot of supplies to the battlefield here, and, if I'm right, he's here for a mission in addition to delivering supplies. Alexander said slowly.
"What mission?" asked Regner.
Alexander pointed to himself: "Me." ”
"What do you mean...... He's going to assassinate you this time?" Regner asked.
"That's how it should be. Alexander nodded.
"Don't underestimate our Highness, the Golden Eagle Knights have never suffered any defeat since they were taken over by him. Moreover, the name of Alexander the Holy Golden Eagle has almost resounded throughout the entire continent of Chino. Assassinating him would have a very strong impact on the entire empire!" added Tamro.
"I really don't see it......" Regner muttered quietly.
"Could it be the mage from last time?" asked Kordak, who seemed to have come to snipe Alexander, but the plan failed because he happened to be seen by the rest of the group.
"It shouldn't be him, and according to our information, Salon's actions have always been free. So it's likely that his assassination was just a casual act of hearing something. Alexander shook his head: "The big man I'm talking about should be Harden." ”
"Harden?" Regner vaguely felt familiar with the name.
"Yes, the top intelligence chief of the northern battlefield of the Stoke Empire. Alexander looked at Regner and said, "This time he will come here in person, and it seems that he wants to make some big moves in the west." After all, it's been quiet for a while. ”
"And what does Your Highness need us to do?" asked Kordak.
Alexander stretched out three fingers and said: "The supplies brought by Harden will be transported to the front line in three routes, so we need three high-level fighters, each warrior will lead ten elites to infiltrate the enemy's rear to intercept and kill, this battle does not require much teamwork, but requires strong individual ability and good small group command ability." Justt and I can each take two teams, and the remaining team, Mr. Kordak, I want to leave to you.
"Leave it to me?" Kordak was stunned: "Why do you trust me so much?
"In the case of high-ranking warriors, there are three people in the fortress besides me, but they are all used to commanding large group battles. For a small-scale infiltration operation like this, I think it would be more appropriate for you to command a mercenary squad for many years. Tamro said.
"...... "Since Alexander thinks so highly of himself, Kordak naturally won't be modest, this is a good opportunity to show his ability." He pondered for a moment, then said, "Vera and Ray will be with me." ”
"Vera, no problem, we expected her to be in your group. Alexander said, "But Regner, he ......"
"What's wrong with me?" Regner asked.
"You have another mission. Alexander said, "I want you to assassinate Harden." ”
"What did you say?!" Kordak stood up on the ground: "What kind of strength is Harden?
"If the previous information is correct, he should be a seventeenth-level assassin. Alexander said.
"Seventeenth level?!Don't you know how to count?Xiao Lei is just a fourteenth-level mid-level assassin!" Vera is also anxious, they are willing to help Alexander, but it does not mean that they are willing to listen to them and send him to death. Alexander apparently didn't take their lives seriously by doing so.
Alexander turned a deaf ear to Cordak and Vera's questioning, and just looked at Regner calmly, "Do you accept it?"
"......" Regner thought for a moment, then looked up, "I took it." ”
"Little Ray, don't be impulsive!" Cordak scolded, knowing that with Regner's strength, it wasn't particularly difficult to kill a seventeenth-level assassin. But no one dares to say anything about this kind of thing, since he Harden can be the intelligence chief, he must also be an old fox, although Regner has won against Barol, but this time it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be plotted by Harden. This kind of thing, once there is anything in case, it is fatal!
"Boss, don't persuade me, I have to do this. Regner stood up and said, "I'm sure, trust me." ”
"......" Kordak looked at Regner's expression and saw that he didn't mean to joke, so he shook his head and gave up continuing to persuade, once this guy makes his own decisions, it is difficult to be changed.
"Can't wait?" asked Garona.
"Yes, now that I've decided to take over MIA, I have to find a chance to prove myself, and this is a good opportunity. Regner said.
"Okay. "Garona doesn't stop him, his disciple wants to get ahead, will the teacher still hold him back?
"That's it, the expected date of action is two days away, and Kordaq you can go to my knight squad right now and pick up the members, just make up ten people. Alexander nodded in satisfaction.
"Okay. ”
......
After several people made their decisions, they didn't ink too much, and Kordak picked a few suitable knights as his members that afternoon. Alexander had also promised that his brothers would be unconditionally obedient to Kordak during the mission. Even if he wanted them to die, they would do it without hesitation.
Kordak was still a little worried about the discipline of the improvised squad, but after hearing Alexander's assurance, he was relieved. After all, he is the prince of the empire, and he guarantees what else can Kordak say?
It's just that at dusk, an unexpected person suddenly appears in the Costa Fortress.
It was when the Kordak were having dinner.
"You must be careful with this mission, if you don't withdraw it in time, nothing is as important as your own life. Vera told her over and over again over dinner that the last time Regner was alone with Baror, she had always felt guilty. And now Regner has to face an unknown enemy alone, which makes Vera always a little uneasy.
"Brother Regner......" Erin also wanted to speak, she knew that Regner's mission this time was different from the past, he would sneak behind enemy lines alone to assassinate the enemy, which was much more dangerous than the previous missions!
"Ah, what are you doing so much. Cordak said nonchalantly: "Although Xiao Lei is usually a little unreliable, he has never joked with his life. Since he dares to take it, he must be sure to do it. ”
"Boss, I've always been reliable, okay......" Regner burst into tears.
"You ......" Kordak was about to say more, but a voice at the other table caught everyone's attention: "Two fried beef, one beer." ”
"Oh, why is this guy?" Regna was the first to react, and he shouted without looking back, "Albert!"
"Huh?" Alberon turned his head and saw that the Kordak were also in the tavern.
"Why are you?" said Abelon, who was also very happy to see the old man, and he briefly explained a few words to the waiter, and then walked directly to the table of Kordak.
"Isn't that a strange question, haven't you heard of the Kordak Reaper squad at Costa Fortress?" said Kordak awesomely.
"I'm new to this area, so I don't know ......," Alberon shook his head.
"So what are you doing here? I remember you went to the Eastern Battlefield first, why did you go here again?" asked Regner.
"I can't get along over there. Alberon said with a bitter face, "That battlefield is not a place for people to stay at all, and I almost died several times. ”
Regner took a closer look, only to find that there was a faint scar on Albert's originally handsome face, which spread from the corner of his mouth to the base of his ear, thinking that it was a new wound from the previous days.
"You didn't listen to you when you let the kid stay with us, hehe, you know it's awesome now, right?" Kordaq scoffed.
"I was still too arrogant at the time......" Aberon shook his head and smiled bitterly, I have to say that the battlefield life in the past few months has brought a lot of changes to his temperament. Regner felt that if it had been the past, Alberon would have blushed and reasoned with Kordak.
"The battle over there is often a legion-level battle of thousands of people, and I can't play any role alone. Alberon continued, "Then I heard that His Royal Highness Alexander, the second prince of the Empire, was going to Costa Fortress, so I came with me. If you can meet His Royal Highness the Prince, it is best to get his appreciation. ”
"Oh?" Kordak was stunned, he knew that although Alberon was a little white, he had a bit of arrogance in his bones, but when he mentioned Alexander, there seemed to be a bit of reverence in his tone, which couldn't help but make Kordak a little surprised.
"Why, don't tell me you haven't heard of His Highness Alexander the Holy Golden Eagle. Alberon looked disdainful.
"Hey, how could I not have heard of it!" Kordak snorted again: "And ah, I'm still running errands with him!"
"Huh? Alberon was immediately interested.
"It's confidential, wait tomorrow, I'll go find the prince, if he agrees, it's okay to bring you in, how about it, okay?" Cordak asked, since this Alberon was able to pass the investigation of the Military Intelligence Service, there must not be much problem with his identity, but for the sake of prudence, he decided to ask Alexander's opinion.
"Of course!" said Albert, looking excited.
And then Alexander did agree to Aberon joining, and in this way, Kordak led the team with another marksman. After some preparation, the group quietly left the Costa Fortress and made their way to the rear of the Stokers.
