Chapter 53: Balanced

Lord Marquis and the city guard glanced at each other, needless to say, it is impossible for the national teacher to leave the royal capital for his son, otherwise what would His Majesty do, would his son be more important than the king.

The city guard was even more nervous, he wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "That, Your Excellency Zhandeli, we may be making a little fuss, the other party may not be a powerful character, or it may just be the type that is good at raiding." ”

This statement is not something that the castle guards say nonsense to comfort themselves, in fact, there are many kinds of mages in this world, some are only good at long-range attacks, and their melee ability is close to zero. Some mages are as good at fighting as martial artists, but they don't have much of a wide range of killing capabilities, and some mages have terrifying attack power, but they are extremely fragile in defense, similar to ordinary people.

It's just that in these kingdoms above the plains, the proportion of mages is relatively small, and you generally don't see this kind of mage who is biased. And all the basic theoretical data, including the education in the Kingdom Academy, are based on standard martial artists, not to mention those mages who are partial to the subject, even the very few martial artists who are partial to the subject are not among the usual reference examples.

It's easy for everyone to ignore the existence of those partial subjects, just like this time, it is likely to be a partial mage with super attack power and scumbag defense. Then the other party can kill a sixth-level master in seconds, but it is not necessarily more than sixth, or even only five-level.

After being reminded by the city guard, the Marquis of Chandley also regained his strength, yes, he had seen the introduction in the book before, and some extremely biased guys could even skip two levels above a certain piece of data. Of course, the books that the Marquis reads are naturally not basic books.

After relieving their tension, the two of them thought again, that level 6 guy was killed so easily, maybe it was not only the other party's attack power, but also their own negligence.

These people are going to pay the ransom, they have no preparations for any battle in their hearts, and they haven't opened their mouths yet, who would have thought that the other party would do it directly. Caught off guard like this, even if the other party is just the same ordinary sixth-level strength, there may not be no possibility of a successful sneak attack. After all, if it is a negligent situation, even if it is a low-cost martial artist of the second or third level, it may not be impossible to kill the existence of the high-level, thinking of this, the self-confidence of these two adults has returned.

However, although he had regained his confidence, the Marquis did not dare to be careless anymore, his two sixth-level master's subordinates had already been lost, this was a fact, and he could not take it lightly anymore. So Zhan Deli immediately wrote a telegram and asked someone to send it back to the royal capital overnight. In any case, there may be an unknown seventh-level existence here, and this situation must be reported.

After sending the people back to the royal capital, the Marquis of Chandley and the city guards and several other sixth-level military attachés in Molde City discussed the problem of banditry this time. Before, he didn't care much about this matter, and his mind was on how to save his son, but now, he suddenly thought that the person who kidnapped his son would have anything to do with those bandits.

This is not untargeted, according to the military report, among the four bandit teams that appeared in the three cities in the west, it is likely that all of them have a seventh-level existence. And the person who kidnapped his son was also very likely to be a seventh-level existence, although he himself was very reluctant to believe that this could be true, but this possibility was indeed much greater than that of a mage who was biased.

With so many seventh-level existences appearing at the same time by such coincidence, how can there be so many coincidences in this world, maybe there is some connection between these people. If you can't figure out that these bandits are teaming up to find trouble with the Kingdom of Allah, then it is not an ordinary banditry, and you have to guard against it.

As soon as these people discussed, it was soon the middle of the night, and the Marquis's conversation was strong, who dared to walk first. Just when these adults were talking about military affairs at night, a panicked little officer rushed into the lobby and shouted, 'Oh no, no, no'.

While the adults were frowning and pursing their lips, one of the senior officers jumped up and slapped the junior officer who rushed in, and then there was a reprimand for 'how do you usually train?' and 'are there no rules?'

What the senior officer said was that the spitting stars were flying around, and the whole person who was being trained by the junior officer shrunk in a circle. It's been such a long time, and it's very depressing to discuss things with the Marquis, and this senior officer has found a good person to vent to.

Finally, when the officer was tired of his lesson, and stopped to drink water, another senior officer had the time to ask the junior officer what was the matter and why he rushed in shouting.

The little officer trembled and reported, but because he had just been trained, his voice at this time was surprisingly small, and with the hearing of this group of six- or seventh-level masters, he couldn't hear what this guy was saying. So, another senior officer stepped forward and taught this junior officer a good lesson, telling him to remember that as a soldier, you must have a loud voice and confidence.

After another education, the junior officer finally said what he was going to report. In fact, it's not a big deal, it's just that the boy who lives next to the city guard mansion has been kidnapped. Damn, hearing the news, a high-ranking officer burst into foul language at the time, and then strode out, and the others, including the Marquis of Jandley, also ran out one after another.

Is this a trivial matter, although the status of General Zhenbei is a little lower than that of the Marquis of Zhandeli, but it is also a person who holds a heavy army and holds a lot of power, and his son is lost, which is not much smaller than the Marquis's son being kidnapped. So these officers ran out in a hurry, this is the second boy who was tied up in Molde City, and they are really to blame for these local military attachés.

Even the Marquis of Jandley followed suit, and the son of the general of Zhenbei was tied up right under his nose, so maybe people would think about it. Even if people don't misunderstand him if he dies or doesn't save him, then his face will be lost.

This is not far from him, and the group of them has not rested, and the kidnappers have acted blatantly. So what are the Marquis of Jandley and this group of sixth-level military attachés in the eyes of those kidnappers, when they are air, when they are in a meeting, they kidnap people near them, this is completely not taking them seriously.

A group of people soon arrived at the scene of the incident, and this time the scene was finally a little more trace than the last time. At least in this courtyard, they found some bloodstains, which were a little stronger than the last time they left nothing.

The last time he did it was Rogge, the characteristic of the dark attribute is devouring, and naturally there is no trace left. This time it was Flying Shadow who did it, and he used a sword, so naturally he left some bloodstains. However, these traces are no different from none, and they cannot be clues at all. And the only thing that can be used as a clue is the handwriting that is also left on the bedroom wall.

Although the handwriting is not the same on both occasions, the content is similar, and they are both carved on the bedroom wall, which makes it easy for people to associate the two events together. So after these people inspected the scene, they all secretly looked at the face of the Marquis.

Zhandeli's mood is complicated now, those kidnappers on the other side are acting under his nose, not only losing his face, but also a provocation, indicating that people don't take him seriously at all. This made the Marquis angry, but also made him know that this time the opponent was not easy to deal with, which made him timid about those opponents and worried about his son.

But at the same time, there was also a hint of joy in his heart, and the son of General Zhenbei was also tied up, which somewhat made the Marquis's heart a little balanced. Moreover, he can also take this opportunity to pull the general Zhenbei, who also lost his son, over and face the unknown opponent with him. At the same time, the important ministers of two kingdoms have already become victims, and the nature of the incident has been raised, which is no longer a problem for his family.

So, without saying a word, the Marquis of Jandley went back to his lodgings and wrote letters to the kingdom and to the general of Zhenbei. As for the other military attachés, they also left one by one with a heavy heart. This time, it can be said that it gave them another resounding slap in the face, and under the condition of martial law in the whole city, people kidnapped people so easily, making them lose face.

The next day, Zheng Feng went out shopping after breakfast as usual, just like no one. However, the atmosphere on the street was noticeably more tense than yesterday, and groups of patrolling soldiers kept passing by. Looking at those patrols that had obviously become more frequent, Zheng Feng couldn't help but think to himself, these little soldiers are not easy, for the sake of the chief's face, they have to run around the city.

But no, what role can these patrols and guards play, this is not to catch thieves and robbers, even if ordinary soldiers see kidnappers, can they know, even if they know, can they catch them. Therefore, these martial law measures have no substantive effect at all, and they are only to protect the face of the commanders.

And now there are notices posted everywhere in the city, asking people to actively report suspicious people, and saying that there will be a curfew from tonight. This is to pit those who are out of the way, what green houses, gambling halls, maybe even the business of those restaurants will be greatly affected.
