"I guess I'm dreaming. ”

The bandit leader muttered in disbelief.

He saw a scene he didn't dare to imagine—the man in black, who seemed to be fierce and ready to ask the teacher, knelt straight in front of the mage, and picked up Alexey's leather boots with reverent hands and kissed the top of his boots.

At this moment, the scene suddenly became embarrassing.

Several Black Stork members widened their eyes in surprise, and they were so frightened by the scene in front of them that they almost couldn't close their mouths: "Who the hell is he?"

Why, why did the leader of the Brotherhood be so respectful to him? Did we think something wrong in the first place?

The expressions of several people became a little distorted.

At first, he thought that the plan was feasible, but after the man in black knelt down, it became a big laughing stock.

Defeat in defeat, they naively want to make a pair of master and servant fight.

Oh, my God!

The bandit leader really wants to slap his two big mouths at the moment, what nonsense is he talking about, can he say that the goods are all Alexey!

At this time, neither is it advancing or retreating.

But there has to be a solution.

The lesser of two evils.

"They're gone. ”

Blue Dream came to Alexey's back and whispered to him.

"I see. ”

Alexei looked at his feet, the black-clad man's shoulders trembling with excitement, and he kept smearing saliva on the surface of the mage's boots, as if he couldn't show his loyalty without doing so, and the flattery was disgusting.

"Adult ......"

He reads it with great emotion, and when he listens to it, he is at least proficient in rehearsing it several times.

"Ioannis, it looks like you're doing a good job. Alexei frowned, gently withdrew his left foot, and asked casually, "How many are there to five hundred?"

"Together with the seventeen slaves captured today, we have two hundred and thirty-two. My lord, if you need it, the Brotherhood is ready to help you send these 200-plus slaves wherever you want. ”

"Not bad. A faint compliment, Alexey's heart was actually far from being as calm as it appeared on the surface, and he was a little surprised in his heart.

Two hundred and thirty-two!

Not two hundred and thirty-two pigs!

That's not a small number.

You must know that the mage initially set a target of 500 people only to squeeze Kapole's potential, not really set a target for this number. There are still more than ten days left before the one-month deadline, and if the current trend of captives continues to increase, it does not seem that it will be difficult to complete the final task of 500 people.

"But!"

The decision to send Ioannis as an assistant to Kapole had not yet come to an end, and it was difficult for Alexei to determine whether the result of the move was good or bad.

Take the remnants of the black stork for yourself, and then wear this layer of skin to do the dangerous thing of robbing the road.

This method is not without brutality, but in a short period of time, it is indeed a way to complete the Alexai mission quickly.

After all, if he could not rise to the top of the Brotherhood's leadership within a month, it was not incomprehensible that Kapole would resort to such a risky tactic in order not to suffer the wrath of the Alexais.

Among them, Alexei would not have believed Joannis, who had been a slave hunter in the past, had not made such a two-copy suggestion in Capole's ear.

But the pros and cons of doing so are too obvious, and Darune is not a wasted capital without jurisdiction. Darune is, and is one of the most prosperous in the kingdom, why has no one robbed the road in the past?If you think about it, is it because the robbers don't think that Darune's caravan has enough oil and water?

No.

In Darune, most of the caravan captains were in contact with the sheriffs, and they used money, a huge amount of money, to pave a safe trade route.

As far as Alexei knew, the caravan leaders in Darune were so powerful that they could even meet the sheriff and the mayor directly.

Since Kapole dared to do this, there was no need to estimate it, Alexei could be 100% sure that he was playing with fire and setting himself on fire.

It didn't take much time for the frequent raids to attract the attention of the magistrates of Darune, and at that point, with the in-depth investigation of the raiders, it would be difficult for the Black Stork's fake skin to escape the blows of the subsequent city guards.

This is true even if Kapole is the illegitimate son of Diemenhogg.

Immediately, he would be discarded by Dimmenhogg as an outcast.

There may be a 1 in 10,000 chance of the second possibility...... But that might ......

Alexey might as well boldly guess that if Diemenhogg had learned the news that Deadhol was about to break the sky from some sources in advance, judging from Diemenhogg's usual style, this ruthless gang boss would not hesitate at all, he would definitely execute Deadhol directly and secretly, and then do his best to clear his relationship with the robbers - the Blue Brotherhood, in the final analysis, is just a gang gathered by a group of social people, and it is not worth mentioning in front of the strength of the regular army of the kingdom.

Of course, the above deduction is entirely based on Kapole's own point of view, and if these predicaments are put in Alexey's perspective, there is no way out.

"Haven't you ever wondered what the consequences of this will be?"

Alexei feigned annoyance, wanting to see what Joannis thought.

"I thought about it. ”

Surprisingly, the calm Ioannis was unflustered, and responded to Alexey's pretended anger in a serious manner: "We have made a strict selection of targets. ”

"They are mostly smuggling caravans with weak capital. ”

"On weekdays, except for a few suppliers in Darune, no one notices the movements of a few small caravans. ”

"Them. Ioannis glanced at the rope string in the squire's hand, and said in a low voice, "It's a small caravan that has been carefully selected, rarely has a backstage, and is mostly composed of foreigners and strangers. ”

"And we only attack smugglers who have hallucinogens in their cargo. ”

"Smugglers have a low sense of morality and do anything for money. When Ioannis said this, there was a faint pride in his words, "A few fugitives, a few hooligans." The smugglers recruited a group of low-level elements that even the gangs disdained to absorb, and instigated them to do the most disgusting things. ”

"The Brotherhood has only injured a few low-level smugglers who have no ability to speak out. ”

"Where did you get the information? ”

Stripping away the personal emotions of the smuggler between Ioannis's words, Alexei sensitively discovered the key to Ioannis's language - information.

Without information, Kapole and Ioannis simply wouldn't be able to sift through what they were talking about, and they wouldn't be able to minimize the risks.

"I found the help of an old friend. ”

Ioannis confidently told Alexey: "He knows everything, as long as you can afford it." ”

"Who is it?"

"Angel Caprien, I prefer to call him 'Liar', Liar Ann Lail, rather than his full name. ”
