Chapter 49: Kidnapping
The thing is very simple, this is another example of the second generation of son's brother. The other party is the guy who bids with them at the auction during the day, according to the man in black, it is still the only son of a marquis.
The son of the Marquis's family came here to purchase materials this time, and there will be an auction in Molde City every year at the beginning of spring, and on this auction, a large number of Warcraft materials and ores will be sold, and these things are basically collected last year, and they must be processed before the hunting starts this year.
That's why this boy came here with a lot of money, just to see what materials are worth purchasing. Of course, there will be seventh-level Warcraft materials in this auction, and he would not have known in advance. And this man in black followed him to protect the safety of this son-in-law, according to normal circumstances, the existence of level six is enough to ensure the safety of the employer.
After the marquis's son-in-law suffered a loss during the daytime auction, he needed a place to vent his anger, so he arranged for his men to observe and follow. After the auction ended, Zheng Feng and the others began to be watched as soon as they came out of the VIP room, and when the night was quiet, the man in black came to retaliate.
Originally, Zheng Feng was not interested in this kind of bloody plot, and he didn't want to worry too much about that son. Just use this man in black as a meat ticket and let the other party ransom him, which can not only have an extra income, but also have a warning effect on that son.
But this time it was different, after knowing the identity of the other party, Zheng Feng changed his mind, and this time he was going to use more tough means to retaliate. The reason why Zheng Feng's attitude changed during the interrogation was because this so-called marquis was an accomplice of the current king of Allah and one of the main accomplices who helped him overthrow the previous king of Andas. It is precisely because of the great contribution made in the change of royal power that the Marquis of Chandley was able to obtain the status of this marquis.
For Zheng Feng, who has completely inherited the hatred of Keith, this Marquis is one of his main enemies, and he is the murderer who ruined the Keith country. So since this enemy's son hit the muzzle of the gun himself, of course Zheng Feng couldn't let him go so easily.
Looking at the man in black who was wilting on the ground, Zheng Feng instructed the way to deal with him, simply put, it was the evaporation of the world. In a small village not far from Molde City, there is a systematic warehouse, dispose of this man in black and throw it into the warehouse, not only can you destroy all the traces, but also get more than a million points of resources. As for the proud marquis, let his subordinates tie up his meat tickets, and definitely can't make these rebels feel better.
But who is going to do the kidnapping thing, Zheng Feng glanced at everyone. Although Natsu and Guggill both had expressions of excitement and anticipation, Zheng Feng still chose the pair of Stink and Rogge. This operation should be mainly hidden, not to attract too many people's attention, let alone be recognized, if Natsu and Guggill were to go, it would not be known to everyone.
After that, Stink and Rogge acted under the envious gaze of the other two people, and they had to catch the Marquis and take him away from Molde City in as quiet and concealed a state as possible, and at the same time clean up the people around the Marquis, so as to complete the task without leaving a trace.
After the man in black came to assassinate and was disposed of, there were only two fourth-level bodyguards by the side of that boy, and they were swallowed up in Rogge's dark magic without any reaction at all. While Stink captured the target, he also took some valuable items from this guy's side, including the amethyst card with hundreds of thousands of gold coins on it.
In the whole process of committing the crime, in the mansion where the marquis lived, only a row of words was left, and there were no other clues. This row of words was carved into the wall of the boy's bedroom, demanding a ransom of one million gold coins, and payment within three days.
For this ransom, Zheng Feng felt that it was not much, that young man dared to take 500,000 gold coins to come out and bid, and now it should not be much to ask him for 1 million. He is the only son of a marquis's family, so he should be worth more than a piece of Warcraft material. As for paying it off within three days, it wasn't too urgent, with the speed of a seventh-level master, the marquis would have arrived here in less than a day.
After contacting the two dragon slayer mages who made cameo appearances as kidnappers through the main control sub-board, the people on Zheng Feng's side all went to rest, and it was late at night, why didn't you sleep if you had nothing to do. However, on this day, some people are destined to not rest peacefully, for example, the castle keeper of Molde City has no way to rest.
When the news of the abduction of the Marquis reached the castle guard's mansion, the castle guard's mouth could not be closed for a long time. Who is that, the only son of the marquis's family, if there is one with three longs and two shorts, can he withstand the wrath of the marquis.
Therefore, the lord of the castle who reacted immediately issued an order to impose martial law on the whole city, and began to mobilize the troops defending the city overnight, sending troops to those main roads out of the city, suspicious hiding places, and all the places that could be thought of, and began to search overnight. But at this time, the two kidnappers and the son of the Marquis's family were already dozens of kilometers outside the city, and what use could those city walls be for a seventh-level mage who could hang freely.
By the next morning, the castle keeper, who had found nothing, had to expand the scope of his search, and also reported the bad news to the boss of the royal capital. Let the boss tell the Marquis about this kind of thing, he doesn't dare to report this letter.
The search was widened, and a squad of soldiers came to Desby's inn to demand that the guests and goods inside the inn be inspected. The inspection of the guests is relatively simple, as long as everyone comes out and walks around, and those rooms are also simple, basically they are clear at a glance, and the search is completed quickly.
The trouble is the inspection of the goods, this is the beginning of spring, large and small caravans are starting to be busy, the people who come out to work have just gone out, the goods of each inn are piled up, how can it be so easy to search.
And today, the people from the auction house also came to hand over the goods, which just saved some of the manpower for inspection. The two sides of the buyer and seller counted the goods together, and the soldiers who inspected stood aside and stared, and after the inventory and handover, the inspection was over.
Those ordinary goods were also counted again, and they had to be checked anyway, so they were counted together. After all the inventory is completed, it will be up to Desby to take Zhang Yi to deal with these jewels and other goods, and they will transport these things to several other kingdoms in batches, so many things, one kingdom will not be able to eat. And even if it can be eaten, it can't all be sold in one kingdom, otherwise the price of luxury goods will have to drop significantly.
Counting and dividing the goods was not a simple task in the first place, plus some large boxes, and the soldiers had to open them to see if there were any hidden people, so this inspection was a whole day. The rest of the inns were more or less the same, and in the evening, the search teams returned to their respective stations tiredly with nothing to be found. The day's work was tiring and unbeneficial, and most of the soldiers were whining quietly, even the petty officers.
In fact, the day's search was not nothing, the soldiers found a number of petty thieves and illegal gambling guys, and two unlucky wanted criminals were arrested. However, because the most important marquis, there is still no news, so in order not to arouse the anger of the marquis, the city guard did not reward these small merits.
Although, from the point of view of the city guard, it is normal for him to postpone these rewards. Otherwise, if the Marquis knew that his own son had not been heard, and the castle guard went to reward the soldiers who searched him, he might have found trouble with the castle guard.
But from the soldiers' point of view, they must be dissatisfied if they have worked all day in vain, not only do they have no subsidies, but they also have no news of the rewards they deserve. The emperor is not short of hungry soldiers, you city guards dare to reward or not in order to take into account the attitude of the marquis, how can these little soldiers serve you.
But at this time, the castle guard didn't care what the soldiers below thought, he was standing in the main hall of the castle guard's mansion with a sweat, on the special seat of the castle guard in front of him, and he was doing a man in fancy clothes at this time. This man in fine clothes was the Marquis of Jandley, and as soon as he heard that his son had had an accident, he immediately rushed over, and had already arrived at the castle guard before noon today.
At this time, the Marquis of Chandelier was frowning, and as soon as he learned the news, he immediately rushed over from the royal capital, and only when he arrived here did he know the details of last night. The other party can silently capture his son, including a sixth-level master bodyguard who has disappeared, if it weren't for the inscription on the wall before people left, and woke up his son's bedgirl, other people might not be able to find out until dawn.
The people who came to report only knew that the marquis's son and his entourage had disappeared together, and they didn't know that the sixth-level bodyguard had already gone out to be a thief, and it was impossible to publicize that kind of thing everywhere. So now, the Marquis got the news that all the people were gone, and only the row of words asking for money engraved on the wall remained.
Being able to quietly dispose of a sixth-level master, these kidnappers are not ordinary people, Lord Marquis couldn't help but rub his temples with his fingers, this time the matter does not seem to be so easy to solve.
