Chakra hurried into Raschel's office: "I found a couple of important messages. ”

Say. ”

"First, there is a black boy who drank there every day in the tavern in front of his lord's house before Ablit died. It was a place where the guards of the Lord's Mansion drank alcohol, and it was not uncommon for someone to get drunk and inadvertently reveal something about the situation inside the Lord's Palace. After the theft of Lord Ablit's treasure room, the black boy never came again. ”

"Very good, simple and convenient source source, I was amazed by the wisdom of this teenager. What else?"

"We got word from Clarice that the boy had sold three bottles of potions to the shops here. We've found the shop and confirmed the news. The teenager deceived everyone with a near-perfect lie and got the money he needed. ”

"It's unimaginable. ”

"In addition, someone in the Kamel family took the initiative to report to us that some time ago, a young man suspected of being Huyglaire had been to the Kamel family, and it seems that he had made some big deals with them. ”

Raschel was surprised: "Why did the people of the Kamel family take the initiative to betray their own family?"

"I don't know, maybe I have my own reasons. There has never been a shortage of people in this world who have problems with their brains demolishing their own people's platforms, and there are still fewer people and things like this in history? Bright arrows from the hostile camp are easy to dodge, and hidden arrows from behind are difficult to guard against. ”

"That's true. Raschel agrees: "The bard Adam Badr four hundred years ago complained about slavery in his poems, but the man who betrayed him turned out to be a slave; Three hundred years ago, the orc warriors stood up to fight the humans in order to defend the dignity of the beasts, and as a result, the humans bought off his brother for only fifty gold. When the Holy Spirit religious leader was crucified a thousand years ago, he was also betrayed by his students for the price of only two barrels of ale. And there are others who are betrayed by their own allies without even a price. Although they are defending the interests of the weak, they are always stabbed by the weak behind them. There will never be a shortage of despicable and shameless people in the world. ”

"If I had this kind of crumbs around me, I would be the first to kill him. Chakra said meaningfully.

Raschel didn't understand, and laughed to himself: "Villains are always killed, right? Forget it, don't mention those people, tell me about the deal the Kamel family has made with Huigler." ”

"I went to check the information of the Kamel family, and now this is a business family mainly engaged in the manufacture and sale of medicines, and there is no prominent background, but recently they have suddenly improved the quality of their potions, and they have launched good new varieties of potions. I compared the potions produced on Infernal Island, and now the effect of the new variety is very similar to one of the potions on Infernal Island. ”

Raschel laughed weirdly, "I guess you've already visited that family." ”

"Their patriarch was hard-mouthed, but after I cut off one of his hands, he finally gave in. Chakle said as if nothing had happened.

"So what benefits did the Kamel family give that kid?"

Chakra placed a piece of paper and a pledge agreement in front of Raschel: "This is the list of goods that Huigler handed over to the Kamel family and the agreement signed between them. The Kamel family traded the materials for three improved formulations and one new formulation. It's hard to imagine that he had obtained these materials not by selling potions in large quantities, but by selling recipes. The Carmel family completely fell for him, and Huey Gler used the leakability of the recipe to coax the other party into signing an oath, and it was because of this oath that the Kamel family willingly kept the deal a secret for Huey. They were completely used by him, and this kid's ability to ** people's hearts is simply terrifying. ”

"I wasn't surprised at all, but behind what seemed like a very good deal was a sinister deceit...... Hehe, isn't that what he's good at?"

Chakle's face flushed, and he glared at the old hound.

Raschel picked up the list and casually asked, "Did you get them to hand over the recipe?"

Chakle said coldly: "That patriarch was very reluctant, so I gouged out one of his eyes again. ”

Raschel didn't care about Chakle's handling of the situation, for whom such torture was commonplace. In fact, he quickly devoted his energies to the list that Huy Gler had given to the Kamel family.

"Do you see anything?" Chakra asked.

Raschel nodded, "Yes." This list and this agreement tell me that this deal with the Carmel family has given Huyglaire access to a large amount of materials in the safest way possible to make those deadly circles at the Lanya Grand Theater. But it didn't matter, what mattered was that it told me that with the materials he had, he couldn't really wield the power of alchemy, and he still needed to be replenished from the outside world. Just as Purgatory Island needs the Liberty, Huyglaire can't be completely self-sufficient. ”

Speaking of this, a color of hope rose in Raschel's eyes: "Chakra, do you understand what that means?"

Chakra thought for a moment and exclaimed, "Oh yes, I see. What is truly powerful is not his magic and martial arts, but his alchemy. But alchemy can't get rid of the material. His storage box may contain some of the rarest and rarest materials in the world, but that doesn't mean he can make anything. It's like you have the most important ingredients to make a meal, but you don't have the necessary ingredients, and there are many ingredients that may not be valuable but you still need to buy them in the market. And with the amount of Hue Iglaire, it is unusually large. ”

"That's right. Raschel smirked, "Look, as I said, as long as our goal is in action, he will always show his feet." There is no such thing as a seamless crime in this world, it just depends on whether you can show the clues. ”

"So what we're going to do now is ......"

"Although it is impossible for us to investigate all the material markets in the country, it should be okay to investigate a few areas. Winrington had sent information about the map that had been stolen from Ablit. I've checked three places around Vanelsa where Electra's laboratories might have existed, in the mountains of Bilas, in the Linglan Heights, and on the other side of the Yuma River. We only need to keep an eye on the material market around Bilas and Linglan Heights, and pay attention to whether anyone has bought alchemy materials in large quantities in the near future, to know where Siegler is. ”

"Why not the Drinking Horse River?"

"Because the Bilas Mountains and the Linglan Heights are in the same direction, if I were Hue Igler, I would definitely try to go as many places as I could in the shortest amount of time to increase my chances of finding the Electra Laboratory. And from there, you can go all the way to the Frank Empire. Now it is no more than when he first escaped, and at that time he still had the advantage of time, so he was able to complete his infiltration, reconnaissance and preparation operations. And now that we're getting closer and closer to him, Huy Glair has to think of a way back for himself. ”

"Understood, I'm going to send someone to keep an eye on the material market in that area. Chaclay said.

Before leaving Raschel's office, Chakra suddenly said, "Raschel." ”

"What's the matter?"

"Are you sure we'll catch him if we find him?"

Raschel paused slightly, then shook his head, "No, I'm not sure. This kid has managed to prove that he can kill people who are stronger than himself, and if you give him time, he will become even more terrifying. But Chakra, that's not something I need to think about. I'm only responsible for finding him and how to deal with him...... That's your problem. ”

Chakra's face turned pale.

The carriage galloped down the avenue, and the idyllic scenery outside the window flew backwards.

Sitting in the carriage, Xiue earnestly admired the view outside the window.

The vast fields make the view wide, and from the inside of the car, you can see the lush forest in the distance, which is the famous fragrant wood forest in Xiangye City. Fragrant wood is a rare evergreen plant with straight branches and long treetops reaching up to the sky. Unlike the vast forests of Misty Shirts on Purgatory Island, they do not block out the sun, but allow it to shine through the pinprick-like leaves, bringing light to the earth.

In the distance, there was the sound of chopping wood, and the sound was unusually crisp and pleasant.

After the fragrant wood forest, there is a large hilly area. The sunny side of the hill is covered with clumps of dwarf shrubs, dotted with small blue-and-white flowers, and irregular snow.

The last snow of this winter is melting, winter is passing, and everything is greening.

After the bloody battle at the Lanya Theater, Xiu Yi reverted to his gentle youthful appearance.

He dyed his hair again, and then changed into a normal civilian costume.

Now he looks like a teenager working in the city, who has finally saved some money and returned home to visit his relatives.

The public carriages of the Versailles group can carry a total of eighteen people, with only one extended carriage. Pine benches stretched along the edge of the carriage, leaving a one-man wide aisle in between.

Fortunately, it is not ordinary horses that pull the cart, but wildebeests, which are known for their strength and endurance, and this creature is able to carry enough weight.

There were only 12 people in the carriage. In winter, there are few people traveling, so Huey has to avoid the distress of huddled with a large group of people.

Beside Xiui sat a couple with a child in their hands, and opposite him were two samurai-looking men with long swords at their waists, and in the middle of the two samurai were three middle-aged men dressed as merchants, who looked like bodyguards hired by the merchants. Closer to the coachman, there was a small clerk, who, like Xiuy, was on the road alone, and near the door, sat two big men with thick waists and round arms, but they couldn't see what the way was, they looked like miners.

In the whole carriage, except for the child in his arms, the youngest was Xiuyi.

Perhaps it was the long journey of the carriage that made people a little sleepy, most of them were a little drowsy at the moment, except for Hue and the lady who was holding the child, who was in good spirits, because the child was always making noise.

The little one is probably just over a year old, maybe he doesn't like the weather, or maybe he is not used to bumps, and he cries every once in a while, which makes the mother have to coax the little one again and again, but the father is leisurely.

"Oh my God, he's peeing again, Georgie, help me, I'm going to change his diaper. The lady complained.

The husband is a little dissatisfied: "This is not what a man should do, you should be able to solve these problems on your own." ”

The lady holding the child had no choice but to deal with it herself.

"If you need it, I can help you hold the baby." ”

"Oh, thank you so much. The lady cried out happily.

She placed the child in the palm of Huey's hand.

Xiu Yi looked at the little baby carefully and smiled, "He has a pair of blue eyes, which are very beautiful. ”

"Yes, he's cute, he's just so naughty, always eats without listening, keeps peeing, and then just sleeps. But when I sleep, I'm always restless. The lady smiled as she changed her diaper.

"What's his name?" asked Huey.

"Paddy. ”

"Paddy?"

"Yes, it means happiness. The lady replied sweetly. She changed the baby's diaper on her feet and took the baby back into her hands. "Thank you so much for your help. ”

"You're welcome. ”

"Nancy. ”

"What?" Huey didn't understand.

The lady laughed, "I said my name was Nancy." Nancy Blair. Blair is my husband's last name. ”

Xiui lowered his head and thought, "My name is Syser. ”

Nancy's husband was a little dissatisfied: "I don't think you need to tell others your name just because he did you a small favor." ”

Nancy looked at her husband angrily, "Oh, is it? a small favor? It's just such a small favor, and my husband won't help me. Because that's not what a man is supposed to do to me!"

The husband was a little angry, and Xiu Yi hurriedly said, "If my kindness is exchanged for a quarrel between your husband and wife, it will make me uneasy." ”

The couple glared at each other at the same time, the husband continued to close his eyes and pretend to sleep, and the wife turned around and gave Xiui a sweet smile: "Anyway, I have to thank you." ”

"When you're away from home, you should always help each other. Xiu Yi said lightly.

"Oh, speaking of which, I have rarely seen a child of your age on the road alone, and you should not be left from the care of your parents too soon at your age. Nancy said casually: "You must know that the road is not smooth, and no one can say when there will be trouble, or even danger." It is best for people who travel far away to accompany each other, and they can also take care of each other. ”

"Toshoy Igler's blessing, the chances of being robbed while a single teenager traveling have been greatly reduced recently. The sleeping husband muttered with his eyes closed.

Nancy almost jumped as if she had heard some terrible name: "Oh, don't mention that demon. Oh my God, you've always been like that. ”

"Maybe that's the one next to you. The husband said casually.

"you, do you think the guy who could kill Abrite will sit next to us and help me change my baby's diaper?" Nancy glared at her husband, "I don't think I have the face to invite someone like that." I won't even move you. ”

"At least you can seduce him. ”

Nancy glared at her husband angrily and looked at Xiu Yi embarrassedly: "You don't have to pay attention to him, he is like this." ”

"It's okay, I won't mind. Huey laughed.

"I'm going to my mother's house in Royo, and his grandparents haven't seen him since the baby was born. What about you?"

"Bilas Mountains. ”

"What are you going to do there?"

Huey thought for a moment, then replied, "Look for the lost treasure." ”

Nancy covered her mouth and laughed: "That's an adult's fantasy, I didn't expect it to appear in you." ”

"I always thought I was an adult. Huey replied with a smile.

"Children think they're grown up, and older people think they're still young. Nancy laughed.

It would take at least another twelve days for the carriage to reach the city of Royo. In the meantime, they were to go out of the plains of Meha and bypass the Forest of Silence. There were new travelers coming up and old ones coming down, but Nancy was always on board with her husband and the merchant with the samurai.

This allows you to have a fixed conversation with each other, rather than having to reintroduce yourself every time a new passenger comes up.

As the carriage drifted away, the influence of the name Huyglare diminished with distance.

On the tenth day, the carriage finally entered the outer area of the Bilas Mountains.

The Bilas Mountains are arguably the most chaotic part of the Reims Empire.

The terrain is complex, with Versaila and Meha Plains to the north, and the Linglan Heights to the south, through which you can reach the Franconian Empire, which is now at war with the country, and to the west is the boundless sea.

The entire Villas Mountains include the Silent Forest, the Billy Mountains and the Aps, where the leylines meet in open wilderness and a large number of native peoples.

Due to the lack of resources, complex geographical forms, and variable climate, this area belongs to the severe poverty area of the Reims Empire. Poverty leads to chaos, and the folk customs in this area have become fierce because of this. The mountains themselves are rich in strong mountain people, coupled with the extreme xenophobia of some small mountain and forest races, making it easy for the power of the empire to ** this area.

As an inaccessible place for the Empire, many wanted criminals from outside the country often fled to this area. Over time, the Bilas Mountains became a land of chaos and sin.

For the vast majority of people, passing through the mountains of Bilas is an extremely dangerous affair – they must pray to the heavens to avoid encountering mountain bandits.

It's good luck to run into human bandits, but if you run into some native natives in the mountains, such as the Jungle Elves or the Goblins, then it may be a complete disaster to bring to everyone. But fortunately, most of these native natives live deep in the mountains and do not easily enter the human world.

In fact, there is a 15 percent chance that a passing caravan will be hijacked by bandits every year.

In other words, for every hundred teams passing through the area, fifteen teams will be attacked by robbers.

That's a pretty scary number.

It is said that the most unfortunate caravans were once treated with six raids in three days as they crossed the mountains of Villas.

By the time they walked out of the mountains, he didn't even have a ** left.

However, for public carriages, this is relatively rare.

Few bandits were interested in public carriages, and wealthy nobles would not ride them, and the reward for Feanor's great strength in crouching and waiting for them might not be enough to feed a group of thieves.

It is precisely for this reason that there are always some lucky people who try to cross the two wars from here again and again, and trade has come to a standstill, and any special product from the two countries, as long as it can be safely transported to the other country's borders, can always be sold for a good price.

The businessmen on the public carriage should have the mentality of Bo Yibo.

After many days of contact, Huey and Blair had become so familiar with each other that even he couldn't figure out how many times he had helped Nancy change the baby's diapers and how many other chores he had done. He looked like a helpful boy next door, and no one could have associated such a boy with the infamous Huyglare.

But the truth is that such a warm and harmonious atmosphere is always short-lived.

It never seems to belong to Huey.

Today, while Nancy was chatting, the carriage that had been speeding suddenly stopped.

Then there was a chaotic and noisy noise.

Almost instinctively, Xiuyi's hand shook slightly, and the wind warbler was let out by him, and at the same time, his entire body showed a bow-like bend, which allowed him to react immediately when dealing with sudden events.

"What's wrong?" asked her husband, Blair.

No one answered him, everyone was looking out the window.

The coachman turned around and shouted, "There are bandits!" they have cut down trees and blocked the way. ”

The road ahead could not be seen from the carriage, but dozens of bandits could be seen rushing out from all directions, and they were rushing towards the carriage with shouts.

It can be seen that this time they are out of luck. They were approached by a group of thieves who were not so picky eaters.

"Oh my God!" Nancy, visibly frightened, covered her face in horror.

Her husband, Blair, shouted angrily, "I knew I shouldn't have come back to your house at this time." You mother-in-law, you're going to kill us. ”

There was a panic in the carriage, and every guest panicked.

Secretly took a small sharp dagger from the ring, and Xiu Yi hid it on his body.

Before the bandits could rush to the carriage, he opened the carriage door and jumped in.

Perhaps because he was the first to get out of the car, the bandits he was now rushing up clearly focused on him.
