Santana Chapter 71 Bait Fishing
The limping figure sneaked up on the carriages, opened the compartments on them, and took out a few things.
Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, the shadow quickly departed, placing the stolen object behind a boulder.
After a series of movements, the black shadow nodded in satisfaction, put away Fang Cai's cautious style, straightened his waist, and swaggered towards a tent.
The limping figure met two magic attendants who came out on the way to walk, and raised their hands to greet the two, but the sound they made was really special.
'Aba, Aba. ’
"It turned out to be Aba, and you also came out to make it convenient. ”
The two of them were really anxious, and without waiting for Cohen to respond, they hurriedly ran towards the remote place.
Cohen naturally didn't mind, and after returning to the group tent of the attendants, he walked straight to his bed like his companions who had been tired from a long day's work, and after a while, he fell asleep.
About half an hour later, two patrolmen came in to check, looked at it at random, checked the number of people, and there was no movement in the tent except for snoring.
While Cohen was sleeping, Cardinal Quleton was sitting in a chair in a tent in the deepest part of the valley, frowning as he listened to the two men in front of him report to him.
After the two of them finished speaking, Qu Laiton spoke up and asked, "Have you all checked it carefully, and nothing has been missed?"
"Your Excellency Cardinal, Abba went to steal from the wagon, put the stolen things behind the stones, and then returned to the tent, we have searched carefully, and nothing has been missed. ”
If Cohen heard this conversation in his sleep, he would definitely jump up from the bed in fright, thinking that he was doing something unaware, but in fact, his every move was under the control of others.
Qu Leiden stood up, and after walking around the tent twice, he asked, "A set of mercenary's clothes and a hat, what did he steal these for?"
"I suspect that he probably doesn't want to be a magic squire anymore and wants to take the opportunity to disguise himself as a mercenary and escape. ”
"There is such a possibility, this magic squire is indeed dangerous, and he may die at any time, maybe he regrets it. ”
Quleton looked at the camp outside the tent and said, "However, it cannot be ruled out that he is the seat of the Blood Hades Temple in the city of Santana. ”
"Suppose Abba is a member of the Blood Hades Temple, and wants to disguise himself as a mercenary to escape and then report the news, there is also this possibility, this person has to keep an eye all the time. ”
"Before leaving, His Majesty Caesar VII gave me a special opinion, reminding me that there are many internal divisions of the Blood Hades Temple in the city, and I must pay attention to it, if this operation is exposed, this operation is likely to fail, and such a thing must not happen. ”
"That's why you keep a close eye on everyone in the team. ”
"You've done a good job of spotting Aba's anomaly, and you'll have to keep an eye on him, and if you find any intention of delivering news or trying to escape, you can kill him on the spot. ”
At the behest of Qu Leiton, the two were about to leave, but they were stopped again, and Qu Leiden said: "Only one person is needed, and the other one will go and call the person in charge of the Knights of the Guards, I have something to tell him." ”
The two did not dare to delay, and immediately went their separate ways.
It wasn't long before a man hurried into Quleton's tent.
Lambert is a veteran soldier who has served for thirty-five years since he joined the Knights of the Guards at the age of eighteen, and as soon as he enters the tent, it is a standard military salute to pay tribute to the world-respected cardinal of the Holy See of Light.
"Lambert, the captain of the First Brigade of the Knights of the Guards, reports to you. ”
In the army of the Caesar Empire, a small team of 100 people was set up with a squad leader, a squadron of 1,000 people was set up with a squadron leader, and a large team of 10,000 people was set up with a large captain, and then a large number of brigades were formed into a legion.
The identity of the captain of the 10,000-person brigade is not the most glorious place for Lambert, in this world where strength is respected, strength is the last word, Lambert deeply understands this truth, he has never been lazy in cultivation, and now he is already a knight-level warrior.
For this operation, the Caesar Empire actually sent a knight-level captain of 10,000 people, which shows the importance attached to this operation.
Qu Leidon is very satisfied with the attitude of Caesar's Empire, a captain of 10,000 people, it must have knight-level strength to be able to serve, and it must be a great help for this operation.
After motioning for Lambert to put his hand down, Quleyton went straight to the point and said, "I haven't told you where the destination is for this operation, do you have any thoughts in mind?"
"Before leaving, Marshal Gerard explained that this operation was completely under your orders, and you didn't tell us, so naturally you had your considerations, and I didn't have any ideas. ”
The long-term military life has made the word "obedience" deeply imprinted in Lambert's heart, which can be seen from this answer.
Qu Leiton nodded with satisfaction and said, "I have thought about it, compared to the students of the Imperial Knight Academy and the Mason Academy of Magic, your combat effectiveness is the strongest, it is necessary to let you know the destination in advance, so that you can be prepared in advance." ”
Coming to a map, Quleton pointed to it and continued: "This is the city of Badva in Saab Province, which is still two days away from here, so you should prepare in advance. ”
After the two of them discussed the details of the operation a little more, Qu Leiton suddenly said: "I didn't tell anyone else about the destination of the operation, you just tell the people you brought the news, don't spread it." ”
"Be sure to obey your orders. ”
......
In this way, the leader of the Imperial Knight Academy, Mr. Hill, the leader of the Mason School of Magic, Mr. Thorndike, and the leader of the Bruno Chamber of Commerce, Old Arthur, were also called into the tent of Quleton.
Coolton told them all the destinations of the trip, but the locations were different.
When several people left, Qu Leiden would tell them that the destination of the trip should be kept secret, and that they could not tell anyone except a few members of his own team.
Several people naturally agreed, and deep down they were secretly happy that only they had gotten the news of their destination.
When old Arthur had left the tent, Coolton took a deep breath, spit it out again, and said to himself: The bait has been spilled, and it is waiting for the 'fish' to take the bait, if there are any fish.
In his heart, Qu Leiden added: I hope my worries are superfluous, and it is best that there are no 'fish' on the bait.
