"You!" "You are unexpectedly!" the words about to be spoken by the civil envoy stuck in his throat, and he relented before he said, "Hmph, since an impudent mercenary is not willing to serve the Holy Oguna Empire, I will truthfully report your decision to Lord Regent and the Chief of the General Staff, if you want to change your mind, please let me know before I leave this camp." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 He shook his sleeves and looked around disdainfully, the other captains and regimental commanders all had their own expressions, and it seemed that there were not many people who were surprised by Fidel's choice.

"I still plan to continue living on this continent as a mercenary, and the privileged mercenary is too restrictive for the potato mercenary group, so that's my reason. Fidel said lightly, and after he said this, Luka, Ayana, and Patrick all understood him - Fidel, who was not here, obviously did not intend to continue to serve the Theoguna Empire, and from the time he was sent to deliver food, he was already a little against his will to now ask him to stay, these things are all things that Fid resists. Now that the Battle of Doret is over, it is only natural that he will leave.

"It seems that Your Excellency wants to leave here," said the civil envoy as he took out an official letter from his bosom, handed it to Fidel, and waited for Fide to open it before continuing, "But the matter of your transportation of poisoned food has not yet been investigated, so all the mercenaries of the Potato Mercenary Regiment are not allowed to leave this camp without permission, and violators will be killed!!" The final tone rose sharply, so that the slightly sleepy Nur immediately sobered up and was startled.

Fei De saw that the documents stated that the Potato Mercenaries had been grounded on suspicion of transporting poisonous food into Doret City, and were not allowed to leave the camp west of Doret City until the investigation of the incident was completed. The head of the Potato Mercenary Regiment, Feide, and others must cooperate with the investigators when necessary and must not hide the truth.

After the civil envoy finished speaking, a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Originally, if Captain Fid was willing to follow me into Doret, he could explain the matter to Lord Regent in person, but now it seems that there is no chance." ”

The leaders of the three mercenary groups did not expect that the incident of poisoning the food in the city would be related to Fidel, and then they all told the civilian envoy that they did not know, and the envoy did not pay attention to the three people, but responded that everything would be handled by the investigation team, but the official letter did not prohibit the three mercenary groups from leaving the camp, maybe they were not the object of suspicion in the first place.

After the civil servants left the camp, Fid also asked Noor and Ayana to go out with each other. The two then returned to the camp and informed everyone present that there were already some soldiers from the Theoguna Empire patrolling the camp, presumably to spy on the potato mercenary group.

The three regiment commanders all left the camp under the pretext of something, and at this time, the squad leaders, after they learned what happened, were all lamenting the current situation.

"It's disgusting! I just worked for them yesterday! I didn't expect to think of us as traitors now!" Noor said angrily, "Squadron Leader Marcus is really not worth dying! Our lost brother is really not worth it! By the way, I didn't see Captain Matthews, where did he go?"

As soon as Noor reminded him, the others noticed that Marcus didn't seem to show up. Fett tells the crowd what he saw last night, and they realize that Marcus has left with his brother's ashes. In the world of mercenaries, few people will leave a mercenary group because their friends or relatives died in battle, after all, if you choose the job of a mercenary, you are prepared to die on the battlefield one day. It's just that he left here alone without even taking his share of the pay, and the choice of the one-eyed squadron leader still makes everyone feel intrigued.

However, Patrick immediately changed the topic by speaking: "Commander, since we are forced to stay here now, it is better to recharge here to recuperate, I believe that the matter of poisoned food has nothing to do with us." ”

"In the future, you should call me the deputy head of the regiment. Fett suddenly remembered Marcus's words before leaving.

"In my opinion, two regimental commanders are not unavoidable," Cavalry Squadron Leader Luca said suddenly, "There is no need to be too taboo about this title, why don't we start a mercenary group with two regimental commanders, anyway, we are used to calling Fide the regimental commander." The rest of the people nodded in agreement, after all, Andre had a good understanding of the Marcus brothers, but the rest were brought out by Fidel.

"Well, that's not to be discussed. As for the matter of poisoned food, I'm afraid it's not that simple. Then the people began to analyze the whole story of the poisoned food incident in the camp, and Fidel listened to the discussion while eating breakfast.

In the first place, the pope of the Papal States asked the potato mercenary group to go to the Duchy of Noo to escort the grain, and if the grain was poisonous from the beginning, then in other words, the Grand Duke Aldington of the Duchy of Noo was the culprit. Along the way, Fidel and his men were 100% sure that the grain had not been stolen or poisoned, so if it was not poisoned after it had been sent into the city, as Lord Möngke had said, then the grain would have been poisonous in the first place.

The Duke of Oldington, who had originally sent a large amount of food out of good intentions, had now become poison to cooperate with the traitor Derek to plague the defenders, and the only thing that could be explained was that there were people in the Duchy of Noo who wanted to join the East Oguna Empire to kill the defenders of the West Oguna Empire - the Pope of the Papal States also knew about this, and asked the potato mercenary group to escort it, and it seems that the Pope, who has been working against Archbishop Arthur Auerbach, also knew about it. After all, the Empire of Theoguna, which had a good relationship with the archbishop, was not necessarily a friend of the Pope, and if he helped the Empire of Eastern Oguna to eradicate the emerging regimes in the West, it might have an impact on the control of the Papal States.

The reasoning of Fidel and the others seems far-fetched, but now all the evidence and clues point to the fact that the large amount of food is poisonous in the first place, and it is just enough to give the inner ghost Derek who is in charge of managing the supplies a chance.

"Aren't we scapegoats?!" asked Noor, annoyed.

"If the investigators of the Theoguna Empire are wise, they should have collected evidence from us first," the young Lukka touched his chin and said, "Even if we don't come to collect evidence, given our performance in the defense of the city, we should be able to judge that our mercenary group is not the other party's people." ”

Feder suddenly remembered the unexpected events on the border of the Three Duchies. The group of horse thieves and Prince Walter, who escorted them, had always wanted to protect the poisonous grain, and the horse thieves seemed to be going for the grain, so they didn't know if the forces on both sides knew about the poison mixed in the grain, and if Prince Walter knew about it, then he was also the conspirator?

The horse thieves who were menacing and looked like they were going to kill them all didn't look like good people in any way, and the information and evidence they had now couldn't be extrapolated at all, and it was estimated that the results could only be drawn from the interrogation of Derek.

"This matter is waiting for the investigators to deal with it, we just need to wait in peace," Phaedra opened the curtain of the tent, the sun outside was fierce, "Luca, you send someone to inform Reeves and let him and the people escorting him back here." The other captains immediately summoned their subordinates and informed them of the current situation, telling everyone not to leave the barracks without permission during this time, and just recuperate here. ”

Three days later, Reeves returned to the camp, and he also brought a lot of news from outside.

"The rest of the western frontier of the empire is beginning to know the outcome of the Battle of Doret, and most of the civilians are excited about the victory in the defense of the imperial capital of St. Augusta. Although it was heard that a one-year armistice had been signed, many civilians wanted to be able to recover the southern lands they had seized. On the other hand, the reputation of the Potato Mercenary Regiment and the Captain of the Potato Mercenary Regiment has also become famous in the West, and they all know that it was Phylla who led the mercenaries to protect the Virgin Goliath - of course, the civilians also know that the Holy Maiden who called the wind and rain and defeated the invaders with thunder and lightning was really the gods, and there are many versions of the legend about Golia. ”

"Those are the internal affairs of the Theoguna Empire, Reeves, and I intend to leave the empire when my investigation is over. ”

"Does it include the East and the West?" Reeves asked, looking at Fidel, "Based on my years of life experience, there will definitely be many skirmishes in the territory of the Oguna Empire during this year, and all the nobles will recruit troops, and it should be the time for the mercenaries to show their strength, and we are leaving?"

Fidel had been thinking about it for several days, and although he was not completely sure where the Potato Mercenaries would go on the mainland, he would certainly not stay in the two Oguna Empires. Even returning to the Papal States is better than staying here, after all, he has lost several squadron leaders, and the potato mercenary group has not become stronger, and staying here any longer will only be squeezed dry by the Regent and Stanley and others, until there is no use value at all.

If he had to choose a place, Fed would have wanted to go to the Duchy of Dlamain - I don't know if it was because it was Korth's homeland, or perhaps because the prosperity and stability there were what attracted Fed.

Just as Fid and Reeves were chatting outside the tent, the voice of Squad Leader Leonard suddenly came from a distance, "You can't just rush in like this!

Feyder and Reeves immediately turned around, and three men were walking briskly from a distance, and the one who walked in front of them was very familiar.

"Do you remember me this time?" said a young man who walked in the front, with two iron rings on his ears and a very special wheat-colored skin. Fei De had already remembered that the other party was the guy who came here with Chief of Staff Stanley before the defense of the city and asked Fei De to stay, but the other party "pushed" himself hard.

"Yes. ”

"Really, do you remember me, Field!" a young man dressed like a knight stopped in front of Fielder, and then Leonard also chased after him, and it seemed that the three men had come uninvited and barged in directly to find him.

"That day with Stanley...

"Alas, I'm Eggsie!"

"Eggsie... Eggsie!" Feder woke up as if he had just woken up from a dream, and he had forgotten about Eggsy!
