Chapter 238: The Mission Is Attacked
In the middle of the night, when Rufes and Linda found the "necklace" and returned to their residence, the quiet and peaceful building during the day was now burned down.
At the entrance of the Green Pavilion, the knights were busy putting out the fire, but the flames were too fierce and too wide.
At night, the sky is red with flames, and even the smoke clouds mixed with Mars stand out in the night sky.
"What's going on?" Qiao Ya asked loudly.
"Report to the Commander!" a knight paused and reported: "An hour ago our residence was attacked by ten masked men, and His Excellency Marshal's room was the first to catch fire, and the fire was so great that we could not control it at all, His Excellency Adjutant ......"
At this, the knight was silent.
"What's wrong with him?" Rufis walked up to the knight, his majestic expression full of anxiety, "What's wrong with Melincis?
“......”
"Your Excellency the Marshal asked you, didn't you hear it?" Qiao Ya already had a premonition.
The knight stepped aside, pointed to one of the several corpses covered with white cloth, and said, "Your Excellency, Adjutant...... Already killed in the line of duty. ”
Martyred? Melincipis martyred?
These words brought Rufis an unacceptable shock, and he walked over step by step, and under the white cloth that was lifted, Melinsy, who was only twenty-eight years old, had quietly passed away, and his face still had a calm that ordinary people could not understand.
"Your Excellency, the adjutant confessed two things before leaving. The knight's eyes turned red.
“......”
"The first thing is for me to give you this document anyway. He said as he handed it into the hands of the marshal. On the gray document bag, Merlinsy's bloody handprints were clearly left.
This is, this is the return plan? Rufis knows what it is, and it includes a detailed plan for returning home, even where he will stay in a hotel, eat, and even where to get water, camp, and so on......
The masked men wanted to kill themselves, but they didn't find any trace of them when they entered the room, and when they tried to seize the document, they were found by the adjutant, Rufis looked up at the fire that was about to be extinguished, and his heart was full of regret for the adjutant.
He died for me, and if I hadn't left to find Linda tonight, maybe I would have been the one lying here.
"What's the second thing?" asked Rufis as he put the white cloth back on his face.
"He wanted to ask Captain Qiao Ya to bring this to his daughter. ”
The blood-stamped red pearl necklace lost its original luster and became dim, but its meaning was ...... At this moment, Qiao Ya, an iron-clad man, hurriedly turned his head, perhaps afraid that others would see the fall of his tears.
"Do you know who did it?" shouted Qiao Ya angrily.
The knight shook his head slightly.
"It wouldn't be wrong if it was Duke Nax. Rufis stood up, and he smiled "I'm out of the way" to Linda, who had been caring for him behind him, "How much have we lost? How many have been killed?"
"It's not clear yet, but because the items that left have been moved outside, there is no impact, and the number of people is estimated to be at least about 30 people. The knight told the marshal exactly what he knew.
"Thirty knights?" the number made Qiao Ya lose face, "There are only ten people on the other side, right?
"I'm sorry Captain, only two people died on the other side, and the rest of the people jumped into the inner city river after the fire broke out and fled. ”
"Damn!"
"But......" Perhaps intimidated by the captain's anger, the knight was frightened back by the words that came to his lips, "......"
"But what?"
"We caught one of their nemesis, who at first wanted to take poison, but was discovered and stopped in time. ”
Rufis flashed a terrifying glint in his eyes, "Where is he?"
“......”
......
Approaching the early hours of the morning, seeing off the last group of Cold Moon Empire officials who had come to offer their respects, Rufis walked into the room where the prisoner was being held, accompanied by Qiao Ya.
Because of the fire, the outer side of the house has also been damaged to varying degrees, the original milky white walls are now yellowed, and the air is still full of granular smoke clouds, which is both depressing and makes people feel difficult to breathe.
Rufis ignored all of this, and he looked indifferently at the man in front of him who was tied to the armchair.
"How is Duke Nax?"
The man raised his head slightly, his already cracked lips were bleeding out, and it looked like he had just been "taught" by someone.
He didn't refute, nor did he defend his master, but sneered: "Okay, it's going to be at least a hundred times longer than your life!" After speaking, he struggled twice, but ......
Rufes didn't speak, but Qiao Ya couldn't hold his breath first, and he stepped out in one step, and it was a punch when he went up.
He hit the man very hard, and the punch hit the man's nose directly, "I know, you will definitely not survive today!" He pulled the man's collar hard and roared, "Say, what is your purpose, where are they now?"
"Do you think I'll tell you?" said the man, smirking sarcastically.
Qiao Ya punched him again, and this time, the man's blood splattered all over his face, and even his consciousness blurred.
"Speak quickly!"
"Poof...... the man spat the blood from his mouth onto Qiao Ya's face, "Dog thing...... You...... It's just a pariah...... Yes...... What qualifications are there...... Ge asked me, but I ...... Dausto ...... "He was very arrogant and didn't buy Qiaoya's account at all, and the result was ......
His face was blurred by Qiao Ya's iron fist in an instant, and the corners of his swollen eyes even bulged into large bags.
Ignoring Qiao Ya, the man looked at Rufis coldly and cursed, "Damn it...... Blond...... Little ghost, you and your prostitute sister are playing with Your Majesty, this is absolutely unforgivable, Duke Nax is righteous, he will definitely hang you bastards, haha......"
Laughing wildly, he took several punches from Qiao Ya one after another.
"Kill me, you can't get anything from me. He struggled desperately, trying to stand up, "My greatest wish is to drink your blood dry, and then rape your sister, haha...... Ha ha...... The thought of her being ......"
Hearing this, even Rufis was furious.
He drew the sword from Qiaoya's waist and stabbed it into the man's open mouth......
......
Near noon, the canteen of the North Governor's Mansion.
The time of noon is precious, especially for these officials, who are usually busy with official duties. They gathered around the table, tasting a fairly tasty meal while gossiping inconsequentially.
Beidu Hualong, who was also resting, also sat there for lunch, perhaps because of his different status, there was no one in the place where he was sitting or around him.
"It's so nice to be able to eat Kailin's food every day. Hua Long's face was happy, and he slowly opened the lunch box prepared by Kailin, of course, in fact, the reason why Hua Long was in such a good mood was mainly because of Rufhis.
He is still alive, which is a matter of mind for Hualong even if it is a matter of heart!
Hua Long didn't want Rufis to hang up before he started to dominate the business, that was definitely not in his interests.
Hua Long smiled stupidly, and then set his eyes on the sumptuous dish. Or Kai Lin is capable, only she can cook such a good dish, and the ones made by his wife Xue Ya and Xing Xue are not for people to eat, so it's no wonder that they don't die after eating that kind of thing.
"Four chicken legs...... Woo......"
The only chicken leg in the lunch box stood there alone, and Hua Long can still remember the picture when Xue Ya and Bing Luo grabbed their chicken legs, of course, Xue Ya and Bing Luo also had it, but the two of them ate their own ......
Hualong still has tears on his face when he thinks about it now!
"Forget it, something is better than nothing. ”
After sighing, Hua Long picked up the chicken legs, but at this moment, Tarex came over, and when he saw his face, Hua Long's appetite immediately disappeared.
"My lord, the latest news. The staff didn't look at Hua Long, but at the chicken leg in Hua Long's hand, and it seemed that he wanted to ...... Hua Long immediately realized something, so he hurriedly put down the chicken leg and covered it with a lid.
"It's about the burning of the Green Pavilion, right?
"The losses on the side of the Green Pavilion were not large, there were probably more than a dozen casualties on the side of the guards, and in addition, twenty-four knights were killed on the side of the mission of the Fire Empire, among which Colonel Melincis, the adjutant of Rufhis, was killed. ”
"The cultivation of these dead soldiers seems to be good, and it seems that they can't be underestimated by killing so many first-class iron knights with first-class cultivation. Hua Long then asked, "Is there any movement on the part of Rufis and what about the dead soldiers?"
The staff didn't rush to speak, just looked at the lunch box that Hua Long was holding down.
The next moment, big eyes stared.
Moments later!
Rufis handled the matter very low-key, not saying that there was arson, nor that someone had assassinated, and that the trip scheduled for today was postponed until tomorrow morning. As for the dead, unfortunately, it is only known that two of them died, and the rest are out of the city. ”
"Yes. Hua Long suddenly became a little worried.
Then!
"Hua Long. ”
The girl's domineering voice came from behind Hua Long, and then, Hua Long's body instinctively trembled.
Could it be Xingxue coming?
Hua Long's idea was quickly confirmed, and what made Hua Long even more worried happened. Xingxue didn't come empty-handed, she was doing what she said before, she was going to make her last meal before leaving.
Oh no, isn't it now? Is there a problem with that meal? She wouldn't have added something "awesome" to it.
At this moment, Hua Long wanted to escape, but his legs kept shaking, and he couldn't use his strength at all.
"You're already eating?"
Xing Xue, who was wearing a skirt, looked downright and generous, but when she saw Hua Long not obeying the agreement to eat alone, her "savage" energy came up again, and her sexy little mouth pouted.
"Rice?" Looking at the lunch box in his hand, Hua Long was really hard to argue, "This...... This ......"
"Miss Xingxue, this lunch box is mine. The staff took a step forward and reached for the lunch box, "You say yes, Lord Beidu." ”
"Huh?"
Hualong didn't want to let go, but when he saw Xingxue's questioning gaze, he had to push the lunch box forward, "Hehe...... I'm watching for Tarex, you see, he's here now, I'll give him back the lunch box, hehe......"
Hua Long was laughing, but his heart was dripping blood, and Tarex received Hua Long's last chicken leg expressionlessly.
"I'll just say it. Without avoiding the eyes of outsiders, Xing Xue kissed Hualong coldly, "For the sake of my future husband, I've been busy all morning, come, eat and take a look......"
However, since the last experience, Hua Long has been particularly resistant to what Xing Xue has done.
Tarex, save me! Hua Long let out the deepest and most urgent cry in his heart, but ......
The half-white-haired man found a table to make and nibbled on the chicken leg alone.
In the afternoon, Hualong was rushed to the hospital by the doctor who rushed to the hospital, and the diagnosis was: malignant food poisoning!
......
In the official office of the Northern Governor's Mansion, Tarex was reviewing documents when he ......
There was a knock on the door!
"Come in. He didn't look up, still concentrating on his work.
"Your Excellency, the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Military Department, Avalon, has come to visit Lord North. ”
Tarex didn't look up, and replied lightly: "Lord Beidu is not here, let him go back." Seeing that the governor was still standing, he asked, "Is there anything else?"
"He said that if the Northern Governor is not there, then pay a visit to the Northern Governor's staff. ”
"Meet me?" Tarex paused, raised his head slightly, and muttered, "Avalon, Deputy Chief of Staff?"
Of course, this person Tarex knows, but he doesn't know which side he is, after all, Hua Long had told him before that the power controlled by Hua Yun was ready to make a move, as for the source of the news, it was naturally the mysterious woman, but for this mysterious woman, even Hua Long couldn't figure out where she came from, only knew that her cultivation was very high, at least stronger than Tianxue, and her spiritual power attribute seemed to be based on the dark system, which was very similar to Hua Long.
However, no matter what, Hua Long can still be sure of one thing, that is, the mysterious woman is a friend rather than an enemy, otherwise she would not have saved him after being seriously injured by Hua Yun.
Yes, that Hua Long's familiar voice was the beautiful female voice he heard in his confusion that night, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid Hua Long would have died before, therefore, Hua Long didn't have any doubts about the news she transmitted, but for her purpose, even Hua Long couldn't guess it, the other party just said that he would naturally know when the time came.
Is that any different from not saying anything?
Therefore, thinking of this, Tarex's brows suddenly furrowed, and he immediately ordered, "Please let him in." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
