1143. Secrets
After the old Heyman came back with a four-wheeled truck, his face was ugly, as if he had lost his temper and was not in a very good mood.
The carriage stopped in the square near the city gate, Surdak and Andrew jumped into the carriage first, and the elder Heyman did not leave the city immediately, but drove the carriage to a lively street in the Chaos Fortress, where he skillfully parked the carriage on the side of the road.
A waiter at the door of the restaurant hurriedly ran up and took the leather whip from Old Heyman's hand.
"Great Swordsman of Hayman, have you come to the fortress to stock again?" After the waiter got into the carriage driver's seat, he casually asked.
Old Heyman replied coldly: "Well......." ”
The waiter ignored old Heyman's stinking face, as if glancing at the supplies stored in the carriage. smiled and said to old Heyman: "What good things did you bring over this time?" ”
"Just some of the trophies of the demon warriors, I plan to bring back some supplies this time!" Old Heyman said casually,
The waiter at the door of the restaurant helped old Heyman park the carriage in the back street of the restaurant.
Old Heyman walked into the restaurant with Surdak and Andrew, who seemed to have been here many times, and was greeted by people as soon as he entered.
Old waved his hand casually and walked up the stairs.
Old chose a more remote location on the second floor, and didn't even show Surdak and Andrew the menu, and directly ordered three set meals.
While waiting for dinner, Andrew told old Heyman about seeing the Silver Moon Elf and the unicorn, and praised the pure white unicorn fiercely.
Old only sneered, and just said to Andrew: "Today's Silver Moon Elf Dynasty can be said to be even rotten tree roots, so what's so unusual about seeing the royal family on the battlefield at this time?" ”
As a native of the Nanai tribe, Andrew has never been in contact with elves at all, and the only friend he knows who has elven blood is the half-elven archer Samira.
Old talked to him about the Silver Moon Dynasty in the elven world, where could he answer.
The waiter brought three glasses of ice water, and put wine glasses in front of the three of them, old Heyman waved his hand impatiently, and said, "I don't want to drink today......
Surdak told Old Heyman about the Constructed Knight he had met next to the high platform in the square, and Old Heyman snorted coldly again, and said resentfully:
"There has always been a type of people in the Chaos Fortress, who live in this fortress, like a bunch of rats in the sewers, not only asking around for some information, but also summarizing and summarizing the information collected, and selling it to anyone who needs it."
"You're supposed to be an intelligence monger, and the biggest thing they do every day is to ask around for new information, and when they know you're from the Blue Bridge Fortress, they want to know the latest information in the fortress."
"They are usually polite, rarely have a confrontation with anyone, and behave harmlessly."
"But those things I did in private, I don't know how many people were trapped."
Old Heyman paused and said to Surdak: "Those people don't need to be dealt with, just be a little wary of them, and the best way is to have as little contact with them as possible." ”
Andrew looked at old Heyman and said with a puzzled expression: "Who can they sell the information to?" Other Brothers Fortress? ”
"The other fortresses won't buy their own information from them......" Old said vaguely.
At this time, the waiter had already served the dishes one after another.
Old didn't say a word.
When the waiter left, Surdak curiously asked Old Heyman, "What's going on, do you need help?" ”
Old Heyman snorted in a nasal voice, held a knife to cut the meat on the plate, shook his head and said: "It's nothing, it's just that we have lost some money in business, there is a group of people who want to compete with us for the market, and we have to be prepared to do some counterattacks." ”
After eating this sumptuous lunch, old Hayman asked the waiter for a few pieces of stationery, and then wrote a few random letters on the table and asked the waiter to mail them for him.
Instead of staying in the city, the elder Heyman lined up with the other four-wheeled carriages to leave the Chaos Fortress and rushed back to the Blue Bridge Fortress overnight.
……
The carriage drove forward on the dark mountain road, and old Heyman did not camp and rest at night, but hurried all night towards the Blue Bridge Fortress.
He was so familiar with the road that he barely needed to pick up a lantern in front of the carriage and led the two of them across the mountain road.
Surdak sat on the cargo of the car, squinting at the cold wind blowing in the night sky.
"Duck, is your patrol team ready?" Old asked suspiciously.
Surdak opened his eyes, sat down in the carriage and replied, "Well, the men have been selected, and we will prepare to set up the patrol team when we go back." ”
Old Heyman said in a sullen voice: "Duck, I think you should work in the logistics team for a while longer, the warehouse behind you has not been sorted out yet." ”
Andrew, who was sitting next to Surdak, said again and again: "Actually, we are ready, now we can go out and exercise......"
It was pitch black around the carriage.
In the dark, the rough outline of the mountains in the distance can be seen dimly.
"This time the demon army attacked very strangely...... old Heyman said half a sentence and then closed his mouth.
Then he shook the whip in his hand, and said: "This time, the demon army directly rushed into the hinterland of the Grimm Empire's defense area, and then those demon armies suddenly had no combat power, as if they were specially sending merit to the fortress garrison over there." ”
"Isn't anyone in the other fortresses aware of this?" Surdak said with some surprise.
Old Heman sighed and said: "All the fortresses near these two mountains have been allocated a bowl of soup, what's the use of talking about this kind of thing, the demon army wants to go deep into the hinterland of the defense area, and everyone is too late to be happy...... Who would want to say something that is sure to offend someone? ”
How could the sentence 'the demon clan send merit to the hinterland fortress' offend people, Surdak didn't understand it after thinking about it for a long time.
……
The day after Old returned to the Blue Bridge Fortress, he saw a message on the internal briefing of the garrison of the seventh district of the Grimm Empire, at the same time that the demon army was deep into the hinterland, there was a Constructed Knights on the side of the Grimm Empire who was also out in action, surrounded by the Demon Army, and only half of the strong people in the entire Constructed Knights survived.
Seeing the news on the briefing, Old was so angry that he threw the briefing out directly......
The news that the Grimm Empire's Constructed Knights was besieged and killed by the demon army soon spread to various fortresses.
The constructed knights on the side of the Blue Bridge Fortress were also extremely surprised when they heard the news, and even the atmosphere in the fortress seemed a little strange for a while.
When the patrol team goes out on patrol, they become extra cautious......
