Old Wales finally revealed the real reason for the banquet for the three mercenary captains.

But the reason really shocked Arthur and them, the city lord's seal was stolen!

Even more astonishing was to come, not only the old Walls's city lord seal, but also Kunto's warrant had been stolen, no wonder he had a gloomy face all night.

It was big news that the news was going to get out, and the elder Walls and Quinto were both guilty of losing their official seals.

This matter is so unbelievable, it is relatively easy to steal the seal from the city lord's mansion who is negligent in guarding, Kun Tuo is an eighth-level war school, and it is probably even more difficult to steal the token from his side silently than to rob it hard!

Old Walls would rather risk leaking the secrets and invite the three mercenary captains to show that this matter is not simple.

The old fox Valeo was the first to speak, "Thank you for the city lord's trust in the three of us, it's just that there are many experts in detectives and solving cases in your Imperial Lieutenant's Office, if they can't find any clues, what can we mercenaries do?"

Valeo clearly wanted to find a reason to shirk it, but old Walls said: "The people of the Imperial Lieutenant's Office have found out a little clue, but there is nothing they can do about it. ”

Arthur asked curiously, "I don't know what the clue is, there is still something in the kingdom that makes the city lord and the head of Kunto powerless?"

"The thieves still left some clues at the scene when they stole the city lord's seal and warrant, and the court lieutenant used the magical beasts that were good at tracking, and according to the traces and smells left by the thieves at the scene, they tracked all the way to Yanfeng Manor, a hundred miles east of the city. ”

Yanfeng Manor?This is a name that is unfamiliar to everyone.

Old Wales continued: "Yanfeng Manor is the territory of the Marquis of Serenda, and it is said that it is a manor, but in fact, the entire Yanfeng Mountain is the territory of the Marquis. ”

The Marquis is considered a great nobleman in the Isaac Kingdom, but Moral, who grew up in the royal city, has never heard of this marquis.

"Yanfeng Mountain belongs to the marquis's private domain, and the guards of the marquis's palace do not allow people from the court to enter at all. The head of the Kunto regiment once personally led a group of guards to ask to see the marquis, but the marquis did not even show his face, but only sent the butler out and sent the people away. ”

Several of you here understood the plight of old Walls. On the surface, Walls is a city lord with great power, but he is not a lord, but an official sent by the kingdom to Huaores City, and he is a viscount in terms of title, and his fief is far away in the interior of the kingdom. Therefore, in the face of the Marquis, whether it is the Imperial Lieutenant's Office or the City Guard, there is no way to send troops to forcibly break into the Marquis's territory without conclusive evidence.

If you really break into the marquisdom and can't find anything, the punishment for the crime is hardly lighter than the punishment for losing the seal.

Arthur suddenly smiled and asked, "The city lord and the head of Kunto have been operating here for many years, and the guards of the Marquis's Mansion are not allowed to enter, so there is no other way?"

Old Wales showed a wry smile, "What Captain Arthur could think of, how could Captain Kunto and I not think of it?" It's just that Captain Kuntuo and I secretly sent a group of people to Yanfeng Mountain, but after sneaking in, there was no return and no news. ”

This matter is strange, it seems that there must be something wrong with this Yanfeng Manor and the Marquis of Selenda.

Moral took the initiative to take over at this time, "How come I have never heard of this Marquis of Serenda, who is he?"

"It's not surprising that I haven't heard of it, because this marquis has never been associated with other nobles, and has been staying in Yanfeng Mountain all year round to study magic. ”

"He's a magician?" Arthur asked.

Old Walls began to explain in detail, "The Marquis of Selenda is not from the Isaac Kingdom, but from the outskirts of the imperial capital of Arantis, and he claims to be a wandering magician. Twenty-five years ago, there was a great war between man and beast on the southwestern border of the kingdom, and at that time, His Majesty Streich had not yet ascended the throne, and His Majesty and his brother His Royal Highness Rex led the Praetorian Guard to conquer in person. The young and vigorous Streich was ambushed by the orcs and besieged, and His Royal Highness Rex was even captured, and the magician Serenda who happened to pass by saved His Majesty, and later helped the Terran army to turn defeat into victory and destroy the orcs through magical magic. ”

"It was because of this great victory that His Majesty stood out from the many princes, and finally took the throne from the old king. After ascending the throne, His Majesty thanked Magician Serenda for saving his life and helping him to ascend the throne, and canonized Magician Celenda as a marquis and a large area of land around the royal city. But the Marquis of Selenda unexpectedly rejected the land canonized by the king, and instead asked for this worthless Yanfeng Mountain. ”

The Marquis of Selenda had such a deep friendship with His Majesty the King, no wonder old Wales and Kunto did not dare to act rashly.

In Arthur's opinion, although this Marquis of Serenda has made great contributions to His Majesty Streich and the Isaac Kingdom, there are many doubts, no one knows his previous background, and it is also unreasonable for a great magician to choose to wander, and it happens to appear on the battlefield where Streich is trapped, is it really a coincidence?

Arthur was full of doubts but didn't say it, but instead asked a completely unrelated question, "You said that Prince Rex was once captured by the orcs, so how did he escape?"

"Legend has it that it was secretly released by a female orc. ”

Arthur smiled knowingly. He asked this question out of pure gossip, and he guessed that the orc who had released Rex was probably Huey's mother in the future.

After Old Wall finished speaking, he looked at the three mercenary leaders present.

The three of them knew that since the city lord and Kunto had invited them, they would definitely be inseparable from this matter.

Kirkel first took the initiative to ask, "Regarding this matter, I don't know where our Bloodpiercing Mercenary Group can be effective?"

"When it comes to the Marquis of Selenda, neither the Imperial Lieutenant nor the City Guards can force their way here, so I hope that a few people can come forward and send mercenaries to infiltrate Yanfeng Manor to find out about this matter. ”

After Old Walls finished speaking, Kirkle, Valeo, and Arthur did not immediately express their position, each of them calculated the risk of this matter in their hearts, and infiltrated the manor of a great magician, even if a few of them personally led the team, they may not return.

Old Wales continued: "Although this matter is personally requested by me and Captain Kunto, it still follows the rules of mercenaries. Because it is possible to encounter a strong person at the level of a great magician, it is considered an A-level task, and I am willing to pay a commission of 5,000 gold coins for each mercenary group in advance, and the mercenary group that finally finds out about this matter will pay another 10,000 gold coins commission. ”

The three mercenary leaders still didn't speak.

Kunto, who didn't speak during the whole scene, suddenly said lightly: "The situation of the three B-level mercenary groups in Huaorez City has been maintained for a long time, and I think that if one can dominate, it will better reflect the strength of the mercenaries in this city." ”

The three mercenary leaders were all stunned when Kun Tuo's words fell, did Kun Tuo mean a threat or a promise? It seems that no matter what, the mercenary group must take this matter today!

"We Blue Enchantresses are willing to try. Arthur was the first to speak.
