Chapter 34: The March (4)

Second Lieutenant Woodley returned to command in a daze.

The headquarters was based in the René family's mansion, where Sean and the main officers lived. By this time night had fallen and the lights were shining, and Woodley had passed through three checkpoints before entering the garden in front of the mansion.

He was disheveled, as if he had been trampled by a hundred horses, and his face was pale. Soldiers who had seen him enter the hotel during the day whispered news about him, and soon there were several versions of the pornographic jokes about him.

Woodley hit Wells headbutt. Wells's roar brought him to his senses:

"Second Lieutenant, be careful about your appearance. An excellent officer is always energetic and engrossed, always rigorous and orderly, even if he is captured, he should hold his chest high!"

"Yes, sir!" Woodley hurriedly packed up his military uniform.

Wells lowered his tone at this time:

"What's going on? Like I was gang-raped by a bunch of women?

"Sir, I would like to see the Commander, I have important information to report. Woodley Road.

"Do you have to see you in person?" Wells asked when he saw what he said solemnly.

"Yes, sir. Woodley replied, "Or worse." ”

"Well, lucky Woodley. The commander is writing a letter, you go to the room next to the conference room and wait, I'll help you ask. Wells said immediately.

Sean is writing a letter. He received twenty-one letters at once, over a period of one month.

The Viceroy of Genoa, writing in his private capacity, tentatively asked about when the war would be over, as he was preparing for the resumption of overland trade with the north.

Compared with its northern neighbors, Genoa has been attacked by werewolves in the past year, but it has always had a relatively stable situation, and the local goods urgently need to find a way out, and the Longjiang River valley has always been an important distribution area for Genoa's output.

The Governor himself had many sources, but he preferred to get more accurate information from a field commander—much more reliable and accurate than the self-judgment of civilian officials who were far from the battlefield.

At the time of writing, Byrne did not know that the situation had changed, and that the rebels had largely left Saint-Nouvé and ran to Guineapoli to gather strength, where the two sides would engage in a general battle that would determine the future.

In response to Byrne's letter, Sean immediately replied, suggesting that the Genoese merchants, following the supply lines of the Civil Guard, could transport their freight to Moorish City, where a large number of goods were urgently needed, even a wooden spoon was needed, and it was absolutely profitable, and it was absolutely profitable not to go to Saint-Nouvie, which was basically deserted.

Rivière, vice president of the University of Poitou, wrote a fifty-page letter to Sean, a thick stack. Thirty pages of stories pasted from newspapers were full of praise for the two Poitou scholars, Lavadi and Nolan.

The two scholars have already departed for the Holy City, where they will be eligible for membership in the Royal Society of Science at the same time.

At the same time, because of the sensational discovery of the University of Poitou, the royal family decided to give the University of Poitou a prize of 20,000 louis, and the Cabinet Treasury also donated the same amount of money for the first time to thank the University of Poitou and Professor Nolan himself for abandoning the patent application for smallpox prevention medical technology.

In addition to briefly introducing the recent welcome changes at the University of Poitou, Vice Chancellor Rivière made an unbridled praise of Sean himself, and asked Sean to never give up his position as president of the University of Poitou, even if he had more important responsibilities, claiming that Sean was the only leader who was recognized and respected by all faculty and students.

This section was written for five pages, and Sean himself felt blush.

Finally, the vice-chancellor mentioned in passing that Alexander Foss's laboratory had recently had an accident, but fortunately no one was injured. Because this is a new laboratory arranged by Sean himself, and any person that Sean personally pays attention to will definitely have significant results, so although the laboratory is "seriously damaged", the vice president and the school committee decided to build a new one for Professor Foss, and now he has the money in his hands.

Sean hurriedly found the letter from the arms dealer Bess, and sure enough, he mentioned the chemical laboratory at the foot of the Rocky Mountain, not far from the town of Vichy. Bess had a keen sense of smell and knew that Professor Foss was working on a powerful smokeless gunpowder, and he tentatively asked if there was an opportunity to invest.

In addition to these letters, Sean quickly processed the letters of his butler and commercial director, Pierre, and others, and then looked at the other letters.

Three from Rose Coty and two from Audrey Robinson.

These two women, the former gentle and lovely, the latter strong and cold, but their handwriting is the opposite of what they look like.

Rose's words are as sharp as a knife. Audrey's words are beautiful and gentle.

There was a knock on the door, Nelson opened the door, and Wells walked in:

"Commander, Second Lieutenant Woodley says there's important information to report to you. He's looking weird, he's in a bad state, and I think you should see it for yourself, maybe there's something big about it. ”

"Okay, just let him come to me. Sean said, "You can stay and listen too." ”

"Yes!"

Nelson found Woodley and brought it over. The latter really looked very bad, his face was pale, as if he was seriously ill.

"Commander, can I report to you alone? I'm sorry, Deputy Commander, and Adjutant Nelson, I'm offended, but I do have a reason for that. Woodley glanced at Wells and Nelson.

Sean nodded in surprise, and Wells and Nelson had no choice but to walk out of the office.

"Sit down, second lieutenant. Sean gestured.

"Thank you, Commander. Woodley sat down and asked eagerly, "Commander, have you ever heard of the Bloodthirsty?"

Sean's eyes changed: "Sure enough, you encountered something terrible today, no wonder you seem to have lost your soul." But it seems to me that bloodthirsty people are not much different from us ordinary people, except that they are naturally secretive and walk in darkness. Besides, it's just a rumor that bloodthirsty people like to eat blood, and I've seen bloodthirsty people who only eat vegetarian food, and when I raise my pistol at them, how far he will run. ”

Sean's words reassured Woodley a little:

"Commander, you are very knowledgeable, I did meet a bloodthirsty man in the evening, I tried to resist, you must know that my fighting skills are not bad in the army, but there is no resistance in front of him. He was about sixty years old, and he called himself 'Virtuous Master'......"

"Wait, his name is 'Virtuous Master'?" Sean suddenly stood up, his arms propped up on his desk, and leaned forward with his upper body, startling Woodley.

If Sean guessed correctly, the Bloodthirsty Woodley met was no ordinary Bloodthirsty, he was the king of the most mysterious Bloodthirsty organization, the guy that the Imperial secret police had spent countless resources to catch in their dreams.

When he was captured by the female bloodthirsty man named Anna, he seemed to be sent to the sage in a semi-comatose state, and strangely, the other party actually released himself.

He never mentioned this matter to others, but it also became a thorn in his heart, and now the other party is obviously looking for him.

Woodley pulled out a letter and handed it to Sean, who took it and saw that the seal was intact, and there was even a fire paint wax seal, which left the personal mark of the letter writer, which Sean seemed to have seen somewhere.

Sean didn't open the letter, and he asked Woodley to tell the story, even when he met the girl he had a crush on.

"It's a tragedy. Sean said, "When disaster strikes, each of us will be affected or even hurt because of it, and the power of the individual is too small, which is the general trend." The girl was clearly not a vain man, and her willingness to leave showed that was a valuable quality.

Ensign, I have deep sympathy for your personal plight. Where to go, it doesn't depend on others, not even on the girl named Amanda, then respect your heart.

If you think you have a better choice, then forget about that girl, she should not be a cheap object for your nostalgia in the future, if you still love her and are ready for it, then get her back and marry her, and try to ensure her happiness as a man, there is no regret medicine in the world. Now, go back and take a hot shower, then get yourself drunk, and from now on, give you three days off and think about it. Go for it!"

Sean waved his hand and kicked Woodley out.

Pinching the letter in his hand, Sean hesitated.

If he had a choice, he really didn't want to open the letter and get involved with the bloodthirsty, God knows what tricky troubles awaited him.

Sean also knows some of the name of the sage, but it's all hearsay.

It is said that this person is supposed to be of noble origin, very knowledgeable, and superior in wisdom. Rumors even say that he has an immortal body, which must be nonsense, but he is old enough to put the strong Ensign Woodley without resistance, and he is obviously in good health.

Most notably, he is the first Bloodthirsty to unite a group of Bloodthirsty since 1200, so it is not an exaggeration to call him the Bloodthirsty King.

The appearance of the bloodthirsty inhuman, according to Sean's idea, should be a recessive gene that exists in some people, and when some people form a partner, it is easy for this gene to become a dominant gene in the offspring.

In the past theocratic times, the church has executed many of these children and even their parents.

However, intermarriage between the Bloodthirsty should not increase the probability of giving birth to the Bloodthirsty Latter, otherwise, the Bloodthirsty would have established an empire long ago. Perhaps only the development of genetic testing technology in the future can find out this ethnic group.

The Bloodthirsty King has been secretly uniting this force for decades, and the Bloodthirsty have taken him as their teacher, so they call him a sage, when in fact his disciples and grandchildren are not all bloodthirsty.

As for his real name and origin, it is still a mystery, even the highest organ of the secret police in the Holy City will not know more than Sean hearsay.

Sean still opened the letter, and the sage had written a beautiful handwriting, a skill that the nobles who specialized in calligraphy cared about.

But to Sean's surprise, the sage spent a long time in the letter describing his longing for his hometown:

"I miss the beaches of Poitou, the Genoa and the folk songs and the flower-filled gardens.

There were my best years of youth, and I set my ambitions there, and that determined my travels for most of my life, including how I killed people and used trickery......"

It turned out to be a fellow countryman, which was a shocking and unexpected thing. Who knows if you're playing a relationship?, Sean said secretly.

"My Viscount, don't doubt an old man's confession. To be honest, I didn't expect you to be where you are today, and that's probably the second thing I've surprised over the years. But it also shows that I made the right decision to let you live, and you owe it to Anna. ”

"My career is in trouble. Yes, the traitors you call are in Guinea, and their aim is to destroy all privileges, as you claim, - this is only a means. Frankly, they have screwed things up and made themselves the target of public criticism, and the ambition of their leader is so inflated that he thinks he can leave me alone, and he dares to get rid of my people, which is an offense that I cannot tolerate......"

"So, our current goal is the same, I have decided to send you a free piece of important information to help me deal with this rebel army, and you will get fame and fair trade, why not?"

"It should be noted that we are not werewolves unlike the Blood Warriors, and the Bloodthirsty will never be able to kill them all. We will always exist among ordinary human beings, perhaps the children of a nobleman, perhaps the children of a farmer, or a beggar on the street.

Their actual number is much greater than I know, although the number is still minimal, and the number is roughly maintained at the same level, and it is impossible to artificially increase or decrease the number. This is the truth that the emperors will never tell you......"

"Most of them live like ordinary people, and only have to resist when they are forced to do so, and we are not born to kill. In this case, the bloodthirsty have the right to live freely in this world, because one day you suddenly find that your own flesh or father is actually a bloodthirsty......"

"I want to build a new empire that only the bloodthirsty can be emperor and prime minister......"

Reading the sage's handwritten letter, Sean had to admit that this dark lord was really a crazy guy, and decisive enough. It also proves that the Bloodthirsty have a deep relationship with the rebels and even the True God Party, and the vast majority of the rebels are probably not aware of this.

The information given by the sage is tempting, and although it is also risky, it is worth trying.

Making a deal with the devil is an unsettling thing, and Sean will never believe that the wise man will come to the door just because he is a fellow countryman. The sage's disappointment and hatred for the rebels are beyond words, and a person like the sage who walks in the dark should hate betrayal very much.

Sean burned the Sage's letter, which could not be known to the secret police, especially since there was a man with the surname Frank by his side.

As for Second Lieutenant Woodley, I believe he himself does not know what is written in the letter, Sean threatens that this is a threat to the bloodthirsty and hopes to buy him off, anyway, Sean has a record of fighting the bloodthirsty.

Sean also ordered the Civil Defense Force to close the city and search, from 8 p.m. to 8 p.m. tomorrow, to make the whole city fly and dogs.

Except for the arrest of a group of habitual thieves and robbers, nothing was found.
