Chapter 580: Investigation (3rd Watch)
Oh? Looks like Akali got you in a lot of trouble? Jeno smiled appropriately.
He knew that Akali had been squatting in the Bori's Inn, assassinating traitors who had betrayed their people to the invaders.
Even Akali's first tattoo was to disguise herself, because lying here with a tattoo can observe the entrance of the Boriyi Inn in the open, and always keep an eye on the target's movements.
Although this is a righteous act, and Bori, who hates the Noxians to the core, is also willing to cooperate with Akali to act, but Akali, who is not good at restraint, lacks consideration in the choice of the location to do it, and every time he does it without waiting for the target to leave the inn, he blatantly does it, and the whistling kunai destroys the property in the inn, and the murder will also have a great impact on the inn's business.
Therefore, Bori's attitude towards Akali is one of love and hate, love her for helping him solve a lot of troubles, and hate her for causing a lot of trouble for himself.
So Jeno's narrow smile is very appropriate.
"Although I won't do the tattoo, I will give you the promised reward, even if I compensate you on behalf of Akali, as long as you tell me her whereabouts."
"She went to the camp in Noxus to the west and wanted to assassinate the officer." Boriyi flipped a page and wrote on the paper.
"It's too risky, why don't you stop her!" Jeno's smile froze, and it was only then that an Assassin infiltrated the enemy camp to assassinate his target, and he realized that Bori's eagerness stemmed from his fear of Akali.
After listening to this, Boriyi wrote down the dense words on the paper:
"She hasn't found a chance to assassinate her target yet, but she's cut down the Noxus flag, and now the army is on guard. No one else knew that she had done it, but everyone was afraid that such a blatant provocation of Noxus would bring the army into the city. ”
Seeing this, Jeno suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw the night through the window, his uneasiness came to his heart.
If it was only to cut down the flag, if Akali did carry out the plan to assassinate the officer, whether it was successful or not, the Noxian army would have launched a carpet search of the surrounding area in order to find traces of the Assassins.
This is very likely to expose Weili under the search of the Norwegians, causing innocent casualties.
He remembered that the war stonemasons of Noxus were with the army, and the army had to go through the reconnaissance of the war stonemasons before capturing a place, and if the war stonemasons intervened, then the possibility of being exposed would be greatly increased.
"Akali learned the skills of an assassin, but not the patience of a ninja."
Akali was not very old, and the word calm was not suitable for her, she was frizzy and lacked consideration in many actions.
As the night wore on, Jeno couldn't let her cause a catastrophe.
"No, I'm going to stop her, I can't let her startle the snake." His face sank like a rattan mat under water, and he walked towards the window.
Just as he was about to jump out of the window, Boriyi grabbed his hand from behind and handed a small object to Jeno.
A hollow, elongated bone that looks like a whistle.
Boriyi wrote on the paper: "Blow it and you will find Akali." ”
……
The smell of blood wafted from the camp, where the Noxian army had raided several surrounding villages before setting up camp, encamping on the desolate mountainous terrain around the looted grain.
The Ionians who were willing to lay down their arms and hand over their food were only dispersed, and those who resolutely resisted were all subjected to a bloody purge.
Their resistance was too weak in the face of the heavily armed Norwegians, but the smell of blood on them was so enduring that to this day Akali could smell the grievances of his compatriots who had died under the butcher's knife.
This aroused anger in her heart, and she was determined to assassinate the officer who commanded the army.
Akali lurked in a large tree outside Camp Noxus, the deep darkness of the night and the dense branches of the trees providing her with natural cover.
In addition, her dark green simple clothes also have a good camouflage effect.
She wore a veil lest the enemy see the ridicule that hung on her lips, and she felt that it was too much for the dying to see the ridicule.
The campfire illuminated the camp, and all the details were reflected in her cold eyes.
The Noxians built their makeshift camp like a fortress, stacked with stones, and in addition to looking oppressive, it had a decent defense, at least deadly weapons and guns.
"Are they so insecure?" Akali smiled, her first encounter with the Noxian army made her think that the high-ranking officer hiding in the depths of the camp might be a cowardly fellow.
She looked away, there were many elite soldiers patrolling and standing guard in the barracks, their heavy armor had a cruel aesthetic, and they were tightly guarded, even at night.
Akali noticed that the heavy armor was functional, with three dents printed on the chest, which looked like a pit made by a kunai.
If Jeno was here, he would have recognized it at a glance as the emblem of the Trifali Legion, and the three dents represented the three elements of strength. Akali didn't know that she was up against the Empire's most elite legions.
"Tricky iron buckets, I hope their boss doesn't sleep wearing this armor, it's going to bother me." Akali scoffed.
In the distant barn, in addition to the horses, there was a large group of wurms, each as big as a wolf.
They are social hunters active in the north, and the Noxians are very fond of using them for military operations, as a caretaker, or simply as an expensive pet.
Owning one or more wurmers was a symbol of wealth and power, and now they appear in groups, which signifies the dignity of the officers in the barracks.
They let out a menacing roar through the cage at the strange reptile not far away, but the latter ignored it, lowered itself and fell asleep, yawning and shaking the sky.
This is a juvenile dragon lizard.
Dragon lizards are ferocious predators that can grow to be quite large.
Young dragon lizards are valuable mounts, and they can barely resist their riders. When they grow too old to be handled, they become burden-carrying beasts, or sometimes living battering rams, breaking through enemy walls.
However, the Ionians lived in villages, and these dragon lizards were used for carrying goods.
"I'm so envious, dragging my family with my mouth, unlike me, alone. But there's no need to be envious, I work alone, which is good for everyone. ”
As Akali sighed softly, a female soldier walking towards her hiding place caught her attention.
