Allen, of course, wouldn't tell him that Arie had been shot with a sniper rifle, and that someone was clearly trying to kill him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoBut here and now, in addition to Adele, who has sniper equipment, the identity of the other person is already about to be revealed. Aside from Diego, who is also from the Earth Federation, Alan can't think of anyone else who has sniper equipment. He said softly: "The one who supports Ally should be the eldest prince, but unfortunately Ally is dead, and there is no proof of death." ”

Gao Hu's eyes widened and said, "I knew it was him!" ”

"It's useless to know, at least we don't have evidence to denounce him to Your Majesty." Alan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Bury the body." ”

This time, he followed Lola's advice and simply set up a trap for the killers sent by Arie and Hausen to drill into it. Although Arri's decision to kill him was a bit unsatisfactory, at least, Alan didn't have to worry about disrupting his trip tomorrow. He didn't believe that Haosen could ambush another group of killers, and it was already the limit of that prince to send these people to the royal hunting grounds. If there were more of them, Eren would be suspicious of Targario's abilities.

He looked at the Silver Winter Mountains at night, and Hausen must have been somewhere in the mountains, as evidenced by Diego's appearance. Alan believes that when he fights with the Shadow, he will also meet the great prince again.

"You can't kill him, and it's better not to let him hurt too badly, it's really not a good errand." Alan sighed.

The next day, when the sun rose again, the camp at the entrance to the hunting ground was not as lively as it had been before. Ten tents were empty, and only one or two attendants remained in each tent to take care of them. After eating a large pot of pepper mixed with mutton, Targario, who had changed into civilian clothes, put his ten thick knuckles into the basin of water offered by the maid, and washed the oil between his fingers with clean water, when the census officer of the spring hunt, a man with a belly as big as a wine barrel, came up panting.

He wanted to kneel, but his normally proud stomach was very in the way at this time. Targario glanced at him and waved, "Forget it, Roy, stand and talk." For the sake of the gods, you really should lose weight, or I doubt any woman can stand you. ”

The statistician wiped his sweat: "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty. It's really time for me to lose weight, and this summer, I'm going to lose this damn belly. ”

Targario laughed, "I think it would be quicker to cut it with a knife." Tell me, how did the little ones do yesterday? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." The statistician took out a small book from his pocket, opened it and looked at it, and said, "Until yesterday evening, the prey vouchers sent by all the teams have been carefully calculated by us. So far, His Royal Highness Julien's results are at the top of the list. His Highness Severs fell to nineteen, and His Highness Hausen ......"

Roy knew very well whose achievements the Emperor wanted to listen to, so he directly picked the important ones.

"What's wrong with Howson?"

"No one in the Grand Prince's team sent any prey certificates last night...... the statistician laughed dryly, "But I don't think there is any need to worry about His Highness Haosen, His Highness will definitely be able to catch up." ”

"Oh?" Targario glanced at the statistician: "So, you are Luo on the side of Hausen?" ”

The statistician immediately said, "No, no, Your Majesty. I'm not on either side, it's just speculation. ”

"Look at you nervous, I won't blame you for anything, even if you stand on Haosen's side, it's normal, after all, you are all optimistic about him, aren't you?" Targario laughed, "But sometimes, what most people think is right is not necessarily the truth, do you say, Roy?" ”

The statistician didn't want to answer this question, but only stood there and smirked.

"Alright, you go get busy, I don't think you're comfortable here." Targario waved his hand, and Roy was relieved and hurriedly saluted. The Emperor picked a bunch of grapes from the silver plate next to him, and said casually: "Haosen's combat power is not bad, but until now it has not achieved a single point, what do you think, Erin." ”

The captain of the guard who was named looked pensive, suddenly changed his expression slightly, and hesitated: "The subordinates guessed a possibility, but I don't know if I guessed it right." ”

"That's it." Targario smiled.

Captain Erin said directly: "His Royal Highness Haosen released the bold words of vowing to win the first place the day before yesterday, but now he has won a point. His Royal Highness must do what he says, so there is only one possibility for his subordinates to think about it. That is, His Highness is not interested in the other prey in the hunting ground, and he is heading for the shadow on the Silver Winter Mountain Range! ”

Targario put down the grapes and looked at him. Erin hurriedly said: "Of course, this is just my personal guess, as for what plan His Highness has, his subordinates will definitely not be able to guess." ”

The Emperor laughed, pointed at Erin and said, "Shadow ...... Erin, we are in the same boat. I also think that the boy Hausen is going for the shadows, he has always had a great appetite, and he is proud, and he doesn't bother to hunt other beasts to accumulate points like everyone else. That kid wants to be the absolute first, so he has no choice but to be the best at all. ”

Erin's eyes widened, "But that's the shadow." ”

"And he's Hausen." Targario narrowed his eyes and said, "You know what? In fact, Loy's fat man also guessed it, but he didn't want to say it, he was a smart person. ”

Erin listened and laughed. Targario looked at him and said, "You're an idiot." But ah, there are too many smart people around me, and I am the only one who has a straight talk like you. ”

The emperor wiped his hands with a clean square silk: "Now Julian is temporarily in the first place, but he uses the traditional method. It's not undesirable to seek stability, but if that's all it is......"

Targario didn't continue, but anyone could hear what he was going to say. Erin decided to be a "smart man" at this time, after all, stupid people are not always appreciated by the Emperor.

At the beginning of the morning, Alan and his party had already set off for camp. Originally, it was Arri's job to search for the lair of the Shadow, but now that Arie is dead, only Alan is the only one in the team who is competent enough for the job. Finding the traces left by the beast can be said to be Allen's old job, and in the years of living with the snow wolf, Bai Fang has taught him this skill. The paw prints of wild beasts, the remains of their eaten prey, and even the feces are all important clues.

At this moment, for example, Alan was standing in front of a boulder. There were several long scratches left on the rock, and from a distance, they were a paw print. Allen's finger ran over the rough edge of the scratch and said, "This is the mark left by the Shadow of the Shadow, which means that if you go further, you will enter its territory." ”

Gao Hu raised his head and looked at the long mountain road ahead rather wordlessly, he took off his helmet and said, "But the Silver Winter Mountain Range is so big, how do we know where that damn wolf is hiding?" ”

"I have a way, you go and catch a few hares." Alan smiled.

The season has come to the end of spring, and there are many hares in the mountains. After a winter, the rabbits are fat and not afraid of life, and they have seen a lot of them all the way up the mountain just now. Regis and the others had never doubted Allen's orders, and even Gohu admired the young earl from the bottom of his heart after seeing Allen's methods last night. At this time, although he did not know what Alan wanted the hare to do, he also scattered with the others and went to catch rabbits nearby.

Lola walked up to Alan with Brake Blood on her back and whispered, "The wind brings the smell of strangers." ”

Lola has lived in the mountains and forests for many years, and her perception in a similar environment is three points sharper than that of Allen. Alan didn't doubt what she said, and nodded, "I'm sure they're watching us. ”

"Are they going to pick up the bargain?" Lola frowned, it was an obvious question.

Alan nodded: "It must have been Diego's idea, that guy never fights in a dignified manner, he only calculates in secret." But you have to admit that a lot of the time it's quite feasible. If we were to change identities, Edward would have suggested that I adopt this approach. ”

"What are your plans?"

"Yes." Alan whispered a few words in her ear.

This picture appeared in an optical sight, and Diego put down the magic sniper rifle in his hand with some chagrin, and said hatefully: "That kid must be fighting some kind of ghost again!" Damn, it's all to blame on that idiot, if he hadn't been discovered by Alan so quickly, now I know what their plans were. ”

Due to the angle problem, Diego only saw the backs of Allen and the others, and he couldn't interpret Allen's words with lip language. He had to strap on his sniper rifle, carefully erase the marks he had left behind, and return to the makeshift camp a moment later. Hausen was sitting on a boulder, pounding the rock with his thorny gloves, dusting it into a cloud of dust. Seeing Diego return, the eldest prince exclaimed impatiently, "How long are we going to stay?" Diego, are we sitting here and the Shadow will run out on its own? ”

Diego scolded secretly in his heart, but said with a smile on the surface: "Your Highness doesn't need to worry, although the Absolute Shadow will not be delivered to the door by itself, someone will find it for us." With any luck, we don't even have to do it ourselves. ”

"You mean the Earl of Allen?" Hausen snorted and said, "That guy is not simple, he already killed one of the guys I rebelled against last night, and by the way, cleaned up the people I brought into the hunting ground with great difficulty." ”

"Of course he is not simple, don't worry, Your Highness, I will not despise him, nor will I despise myself." A small smile appeared on Diego's face: "Everything is under control. ”

"I hope so!"

A few minutes later, Regis returned, each with at least two hares. Gao Hu also caught two hares, but they were dead. He charged into battle without ambiguity, but after all, he was not as agile as Regis, and after several attempts to catch the rabbits, the big man simply threw an axe and killed two of them. Then he brought it back to make a difference, and anyway, Alan didn't say whether he was going to die or live.

Alan looked at the bearded man and laughed a little, and said, "Your rabbit is good for us to have dinner." Then he said to the others, "Take your rabbits, and these little ones will help us find the Shadow." ”

Gao Hu blew his beard and said to himself, "They're not hunting dogs, can they still smell the shadow?" ”

"Come on, don't underestimate them, sometimes rabbits are more useful than hounds." Alan gestured, and the team set off again.
