Chapter 51 Reverse Exploitation
"What? Fall back? The vice-captain said in amazement—the loudness of the voice stood out in the silence of the night. However, he didn't want to restrain his emotions, but continued to ask loudly and excitedly—because it was so unreasonable.
Just now, the captain, who had been waiting on the outskirts of the town, suddenly sent a message saying that he would give up this mission and rush back with his twenty men.
What does that mean? He frowned.
This is not in line with the captain's character all along, nor is it in line with the purpose of "Nidhogg" all along. But this is indeed the captain's order.
Could it be that there was some accident over there? He thought. There is only one explanation for thinking about it, otherwise it would not have been possible for such an abnormal thing to happen.
"Vice Captain, this ......" Obviously, not only himself, but all the team members also showed hesitant expressions. Halfway through the mission, it was abruptly suspended without any progress, the first time it had been encountered in various operations.
“…… Let's go back and see what happened. The captain doesn't give random strange orders. After thinking for a moment, the vice-captain decided to do so – not because of the trust he placed in him, but because only by doing so could he personally determine what had happened and decide how to proceed. If the other party is judging what kind of oolong he has made, then he will find a way to report it directly to the higher authorities after he does not deny it.
As for the fact that he still violated the regulations and took on the outside task when he had concluded a treaty with the Duke of Elbardia, it was naturally his captain who took the blame and couldn't take his turn - besides, if it didn't cause a huge loss in fact, the superiors would generally not pursue such a trivial matter - and the so-called huge losses, including but not limited to, such as letting the Duke of Elbare know that they went out to pick up work without permission, thus greatly losing the reputation of the Chasseur, Or the failure of the mission not only leads to the extra extra money in the soup, but also takes a large amount of personnel and equipment and so on.
The deputy captain ordered this, and the hunters under his command naturally didn't dare to say anything. Although between the words, they were already full of complaints about what had just happened.
Soon, the small detachment of this hunting regiment, under the cover of alternating, slowly withdrew from the surroundings of the Viscount's Mansion, leaving no trace, as if they had never come.
"What's going on? They retreated? The sudden departure of the chasseurs left both Wernas and Levi, who had been in the viscount's palace for a long time, confused. Levi wiped his eyes and looked at it several times to make sure it wasn't his hallucination - the hunters, even the snipers at the rear, had retreated, and it looked like they had all evacuated the place.
"yes...... I don't know why, though. I'm guessing it's something on the Vault side - maybe that's their main target. "They didn't use mortars against the Viscounts, and it seems that their main forces weren't here, which may mean that we're just feinting, and they're just trying to keep the Viscountates' guards from acting rashly." Perhaps some of the biggest names in politics and business lost ground in this civil war and were hunted down all the way. ”
"It's possible." Lévy nodded, it was not difficult for such a person to forge a false identity as a civilian, and it was even more difficult to judge when mixed with the chaotic refugees in the midst of the war. However, the Chasseur, or the mercenary behind the Chasseur, is obviously able to find a way to obtain relevant information, and then release a hunting dog like the Chasseur to chase and kill. It is also possible that after the Vault has completely confirmed that the target is cleared, they will choose to retreat all.
"Do you want me to follow them?" Levi looked at Warnas and offered to propose.
"No need...... You are the absolute guarantee of safety here. Until we are completely safe, we can't just mobilize your combat power. Warners shook his head, "The situation outside can only rely on Garcia and Martha." ”
"So, what are you going to do?" Levi asked, confused.
"Go back and rest." Werner replied simply.
"What......" Levi was slightly stunned - he hadn't expected this answer.
"The mortar was obviously enough to wake up most of the people in the town—although I was glad they never came out of the house to confirm it. However, tomorrow on the other side of the Vault will be visible to all, and then I will have to be busy with all kinds of aftermath and countermeasures—unlike those of you who have the force of arms, that's the only thing I can do in this situation. So, if you don't recharge your energy now, how can you do things tomorrow? ”
"I see...... You can tell the difference. Levi nodded in agreement, "Well, I'll take a look around the Viscount's Mansion to see if there's any trace they've left." Of course, I won't go far. ”
"Hmm...... I believe in you, you just have to take care of yourself. Wernas nodded, his eyes solemn, and walked back to the Viscount's bedroom.

"Vice-Captain...... My command has been executed. Captain Nidhogg, who had hung up the communication with trepidation, looked at Helriga with frightened eyes—although the latter did not threaten him with the sharp blade in his hand at this time, but that look was no different from the sharpest knife in the captain's eyes, "With their efficiency, in less than ten minutes, they can definitely be-"
"Ten minutes...... I don't know if you have forgotten what I just taught you after such a long time? Heiliga said lightly, in a small voice, but it directly made the captain interrupt what he was about to say, "Repeat again." ”
"Yes...... I received the latest contact from Count Ammancia, the information was wrong, and the mission was cancelled...... Bounties will be paid as usual. The captain stammered.
"So, what if he insists on doubting this, and is unwilling to believe you?" Heliga continued.
"Kill...... Kill ......"
"That's right." Heliga nodded with satisfaction, "If something like this happens, how are you going to go back and explain it to Count Amancia?" ”
"Purpose...... There were several very powerful masters in the target area, and the operation was discovered by their intervention, and although it was successful, it paid a heavy price......"
"And what if he believes?"
"Lies...... Falsely declare that the task has been completed and provide the ...... just now What you just gave as evidence......"
"Hmm...... It seems that although you are too scared to speak, your mind is still clear. Heliga even thought the man in front of him was a little funny, "If you can do that later, I'll let you go." Of course, if you don't want to die, don't show up in front of me a second time, you know? ”
