During his time living in the diplomat's residence, Avi finally wrote a letter that he intended to deliver to Field's seniors. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info This is an anonymous letter, Avi didn't dare to leave his signature, because he still had great guilt towards Field's seniors and the potato mercenary group, but since he promised Cash, then this letter must be sent to Field's seniors. Because the unrecorded letter crows that flew out of the city were all shot, Avi had to find an Imperial merchant who had a chance to leave Mallot, and entrusted the other party to deliver the letter to the Duchy of Mageni, where the potato mercenary group was supposed to be.

Avi thought to herself: Kesi can't send what she wants to say, her thoughts are put into words, and I will pass them on.

"Mallote has entered a state of high martial law, and our fresh food supply may be reduced these days," Bignose Fan walked in with two pears, and he threw one of them into Avi's arms, "I heard from that diplomat that the diplomatic envoys of the Theoguna Empire have been escorted out of the city, and it is said that they took the initiative to ask for it, and Queen Rosemand also let it go. ”

Avi was lying on the bed, he had a book on his chest, and he felt tired when he tried to sit up after having nothing to do lately, "Then will we be escorted away too?"

"I don't think so, that aristocratic imp seems to be planning something, and has been secretly meeting with the diplomatic envoys who have united together for the past few days, and even the coral has become mysterious, anyway, you and I will not be the ones in the know. ”

Avi felt a wave of frustration, he didn't want to stay in Queen Rosemund's camp, he didn't want to be wrapped in this huge city, but Avi also knew that he couldn't get rid of the position of the East Oguna Empire.

Suddenly remembering the city guard, Avi stood up, "I remember that Prince Bradley took over the city guard after returning to Mallot, and they might still be on the side of the eldest prince, so it's better to..."

"You want to persuade them to open the gates and let Prince Bradley into the city? Don't be naïve, if the guards do so, they will betray the king of this country. Now the Grand Prince and the Queen accuse each other, and if King Byron doesn't show up, the situation will be tilted in favor of the Grand Prince, but what if King Byron suddenly shows his face? Have you ever thought that Prince Bradley would be considered a traitor?"

"I didn't think about it..."

"Then think about it, stop messing around, and stop getting involved with Prince Bradley!"

Early the next morning, the Imperial Diplomatic Mansion received news that more than thirty noble ministers in Mallotte had been arrested by Gronus for demanding to see King Byron in person, and that they were accused of being complicit in Prince Bradley's attempt to overthrow Mallot's rule. Although there was no news of the execution, the actions of the queen's faction had already made many people unhappy, especially the students of the Kestrel Academy.

"Your classmates are really not afraid of death, they used to petition for some kind of supervision in front of the palace, and now they are running in front of the palace to make trouble," said one of the imperial female officials as soon as she saw Avi, "but the people sent by the queen didn't seem to do anything to them, so they let them make trouble there." ”

Avi didn't know what to say, he had been living in this mansion for more than ten days, and he suddenly felt like a walking corpse, losing motivation, not even the students who had been instigated by Jieke. Big Nose Fan's repeated reminders and warnings made Avi feel very uncomfortable, and he couldn't go back to the Kestrel Academy to attend classes and do something for Prince Bradley, and he was enveloped by a sense of powerlessness.

Felisti suddenly appeared beside Avi, and she looked at the imperial female official coldly, "Those cadets have courage and direction, and they are also above board, and this kingdom needs this." The Imperial Lady snorted softly, her eyes as if to say that she disdained to argue with Felisty about such a thing.

After the female officer left, Felisti turned to look at Avi, "What's the matter with you lately?" Although I also think that those students were instigated, but they maintain their strength, you look like a lump of mud now, this is not the Avi I know." ”

"Don't you want me to stay in a safe place too..."

"I didn't say that, even if you go to a dangerous place, I have the ability to protect you," Felistie said with a little hurriedness, "Incompetent men are the most annoying, you look like an incompetent man now, you don't even dare to do what you want to do!"

To be honest, Felisty herself didn't know why she wanted to provoke Avi, and Golia gave her the task of keeping Avi safe, but the red-haired girl's words were motivating Avi to do something. Felistie shook her head unconsciously, perhaps because of the expectation that had sprung up in her heart, the expectation of this person who had lived with her for a long time.

Felistie bit her lip, her eyes stinging Avi. "I want you to listen to your inner voice, do what you want to do, and support people you trust. Teacher Rost's words were still in his ears, and with Felistie's awakening, Avi suddenly felt a surge in his body.

Avi took Philisty's hands and said loudly, "Thank you! I know what to do!" When Avi walked away, Philisty didn't react, and there was a pain in her hands when Avi held them hard, but she forgot how to break free.

"Those mercenary groups are looking for me again, probably to raise the price, obviously they have paid the reward they said at the beginning, it's really insatiable..."

"Take me, I'll go with you, too!" Avi said to Fan as he wore the white lion sword on his body.

The streets of Mallotte have long since lost their usual bustling scene, and Avi and Van can see the farthest part of the street at a glance as they walk down the street. With the exception of a few civilians sitting in front of their homes, there are few people outside the patrol on the streets. The heavily armed patrols were also very cautious, and Avi and Fan had checked the mercenary market no less than ten times before they went to the mercenary market, and even after the big-nosed Fan showed out his identification, he would be asked a lot of questions, and at the same time, he would be repeatedly looked at by distrustful eyes.

"What kind of stimulation are you, why do you look a little strange?" Fan glanced at Avi secretly, and Avi didn't blink his eyelids when he walked on the road, as if the mercenary market was a battlefield that would never return.

"Huh?" Avi, whose whole body was still tense and decided to do something for Prince Bradley in his heart, was startled by Fan's question, "I... I'm reminded of the words of history teacher Rost, who told me to do what I wanted to do and listen to my heart's thoughts. ”

"I don't care about your history teacher or geography teacher, in short, don't trouble me, and return to the mansion as soon as you finish negotiating with the mercenary group, wandering around the streets may be hit by trebuchets!" Fan wasn't joking, because Avi had already heard that Mallot was under siege. Roberto, the Duchy Marquis Roberto, who had been stationed in the hills outside the city, had joined Prince Bradley's camp, claiming that Queen Rosemund's had kidnapped Archduke Webster's daughter, Christine, so he wanted to gain access to Mallotte and ensure Christine's safety.

The Mercenary Market is completely different from the rest of Mallot's streets, there are no patrols here, and many mercenaries can be seen sharpening their blades in front of each building.

"You're from the East Oguna Empire, aren't you?come with me, our leader is over there!" a naked man carried a sledgehammer on his shoulder, his chest muscles larger than Avi's face.

Avi whispered to Fan, "These mercenaries who are still in Mallott don't have to be supervised by the patrol?"

"No way, who let the mercenaries stay here so much, if they clash with the regular army, Queen Rosemund's will also have a headache, one less enemy is one. ”

Fan and Avi were taken to a hall with a long dining table, some mercenaries were sitting at the long table to eat, and few people cared about Avi and Fan who walked in, but Fan saw someone who shouldn't be here.

"Deputy Head Mills, haven't you already left Mallote with the Spark Mercenary Regiment?" Fan Gang and Mills couldn't help but ask.

"It's Fan, this is your buddy Avi, right?" Mills had a small brown beard like a small flower growing on his chin, "you go about your business first, and we'll talk about it later." Mills glanced at the mercenaries beside him, then sat down and continued to drink and chat with the mercenaries.

Avi and Fan met with the leaders of the twelve mercenary groups, eight of which were the ones that Fan had agreed to accept Stitch's employment the last time he came, and the remaining four were mercenaries who had decided to join them later. They gave Van a detailed report on the strength of their mercenary regiment and listed the services they could provide, including against the regular army in Mallot. The chiefs also made a unified offer, which was agreed upon by Fan on behalf of Stitch and a third of the commission on the same day. Big Nose Fan wiped his nose and began to bargain, and Avi could only stand aside and watch Fan's "performance", and finally agreed on a quarter less commission than what was proposed at the beginning.

"Then it's settled, and a third of the commission will be sent in the afternoon, and our agreement will be reached. The smile on Fan's lips showed that the negotiations were successful, but Avi didn't expect that the gold coins that Fan had saved for Stitch ended up in Fan's pocket.

Mills waited until Avi and Fan came out and then took the two to the Spark Mercenary Regiment's stronghold, where only a handful of mercenaries remained.

"Fan, you and I hit it off at first sight, and I don't want to hide anything. ”

"Of course, I'm your partner, and I'm the kind of partner who pays a lot of money!"

"The commander has taken most of his men out of Mallot, and they have joined Prince Bradley's side, and those of us who remain in Mallot are ready to join forces with the commander and find a way to open the gates of Mallot's city and meet Prince Bradley. ”
