Yongxing City, XC District Black Street Brotherhood, Headquarters House.

"You mean, Rhoda and the Scimitar?"

One of the six giants of the Black Street Brotherhood, "Tearer" Anton took a bite of bread and asked vaguely: "Because of what?"

"It seems to be Rhoda's son," Maurice, another member of the Big Six, folded his arms against his fat belly on the other side of the long table and said impatiently:

"You know, that good-for-nothing was kept by me as a beggar until he played himself to death on Red Square Street... Because of this, Rhoda's relationship with me and Lancer was at loggerheads."

"So I'm not happy to say that the Machete is disgusting? The Sunset Bar has been closed?" Anton chuckled and took a sip of ale: "What a pity. I quite like the girl in the bar... tsk tsk, that figure."

"Her last name is Sarriton, you can't touch her." Morris's cold words made Anton choke.

"I haven't been back for a long time, and I still don't know very well." Anton swallowed the bread: "After the incident in the Principality of Sera, have the Sariton brothers still not shown up?"

"Prison Lock Scythe has been tracking them for several years, and for this reason, he did not hesitate to cooperate with people from the secret department," Morris shook his head: "In particular, he fought against Little Sarriton twice, but he did not take advantage."

"What about Great Sariton?" Anton asked immediately: "The one who killed Eddie II..."

"It's best not to mention him," Morris sighed: "You know, in front of the palace gate, he saved Heijian's life, whether intentionally or not... Over the years, Heijian has been worried about this.

It can be said that I was tortured."

"And there will eventually be a battle between them."

Anton sighed.

At this moment, a figure wearing a scarlet cloak opened the door and came in, sitting at the table.

Morris and Anton both looked serious.

Until the figure in the scarlet cloak spoke.

It made the other two people change their colors.

"Speak clearly!"

"What does it mean to lose contact?"

Anton punched the table and looked at Corbion Lancer, one of the "Sleepless Eyes", one of the Big Six with a surprised look on his face, and asked in surprise.

"It means," Lancer pinched his scarlet cloak and frowned: "Since seven days ago, we have never received a message from Ramon. The last time he sent a message, he was in the room between Xingchen and Exeter.

Eastern Frontier.”

"There's only one explanation for this - he met an enemy."

Morris crossed his arms and muttered: "His mission is just to use the news of the 'Mage's reappearance' to attract the attention of the Secret Department, so that we can safely obtain the weapon. When the Black Prophet discovers that he is not actually a Mage, he will naturally

Will you give up chasing him?"

The fat man shook his head, showing confusion: "An ordinary gangster doctor - whether it is a dark room or a secret department, there is no reason to arrest him."

"No, of course they have no reason - unless this is an action taken by our opponents against our fraternity, or even against the sponsors behind it... Many people are doubting our background." Lancer said solemnly:

"And you and I both know that Ramon is no ordinary gangster doctor!"

"Are there any sponsors for us?" Anton was surprised: "Against us, you mean the Blood Bottle Gang? Although the Qi Magic Master usually doesn't appear very often... But after Red Square Street, they are indeed better than before.

It’s silent, Kathleen and Nekra are both abroad!”

Lancer shook his head: "I have rumors that they have found the Blood Magician - the counterattack against us will probably begin soon. I'm worried that they may have discovered Ramon's importance to us."

He tapped the table gently: "If the one who takes action is the blood magician...sigh."

"The key is our sponsor!" Morris thought seriously: "If Ramon falls into their hands, it will definitely endanger the sponsor's safety... Maybe we need to give the sponsor a warning?"

"We can't risk exposure by contacting our sponsors," Lancer's eyes flashed: "I suspect this may be a trap - Morat likes to play this kind of bait game the most. Maybe there are already people around the underworld.

He has the eyes and ears of the secret department and is waiting for us to make mistakes."

What's even scarier is...

If it wasn't Morat and his secret team, but the masterminds back then...

Lancer remained silent, but did not express his worries.

"No, without Ramon, our research on the weaknesses of magicians will inevitably come to a standstill... In the past eleven or two years, we have just made some progress." Anton clenched his fists: "And we don't even know how to do that.

I don’t know anything about the origins of the weapons or their capabilities, and nothing has been discovered.”

"And he knows the secret that we even have too many sponsors." Morris immediately raised his head with a serious face: "Are our manpower available at the border between Stars and Exeter? For example, Anton, your man over there is Li.

Crystal smuggling team?”

"It's difficult," Anton the Ripper gritted his teeth: "The atmosphere there has been tense recently. The caravans are all afraid that Xingchen and Exeter will start a war, so they no longer go around Broken Dragon Fortress. My men also evacuated very early.

…”

"Moreover," Anton said with an earthy face: "If the blood magic master is not much worse than the air magic master... let alone the manpower of our subordinates, even if there are only a few of us, no matter how many we go to, we will die."

"Maybe there is another way." Lancer said silently.

The other two people looked at him.

Just listen to "Sleepless Eyes" Lancer said quietly:

"As for the border between Stars and Exeter... Black Sword is not far away. You can go search for Ramon."

"And I have given him that weapon."

"If he really encounters the Blood Magician."

"Let's try it out in advance to see how well that weapon performs."

————————

The sun is rising.

Thales had a slumped face and was protected by Sonia on his horse. The group passed through the sentry post and the fortress, walked up the narrow slope, and slowly entered the magnificent Broken Dragon Fortress from the southern gate.

It's much colder here than in the birch forest.

The snow layer is also much thicker, almost reaching an adult's ankles.

This is a large fortress, but the two-story city wall makes the space between the fortress gate and the inner city wall appear narrow.

Thales dismounted with the help of Sonia. Behind him, the seriously injured Wyatt, Rolf and Jorah were picked up by soldiers for treatment.

He observed a corner of this fortress, which was well-organized regardless of the building layout or personnel sentries.

The soldiers on duty were either patrolling the various thoroughfares in the fortress, several walls, or standing guard at various locations.

The quartermaster responsible for logistics and supplies was urging the civilian laborers back and forth. In several large stables, the cavalrymen were skillfully scrubbing their mounts.

On the training field on the other side, several teams looked like they were recent recruits. Under the leadership of several veterans, they methodically practiced resisting and slashing movements.

In the distance, several groups of soldiers who had just returned from duty were lining up to place their weapons and receive rations from the quartermaster.

Gennard followed Sonia and embraced warmly with a dozen tough veterans who seemed to be old acquaintances.

Is this the northern barrier of the Star Kingdom?

"That is Baron Mu's royal standing army, which has just been expanded." At this moment, Putilai was holding a branch, dragging his damaged body, walked behind him, looked at the group of new recruits in training and said:

"I haven't fought much."

Thales nodded.

"I thought you would at least keep her, that important queen, in Broken Dragon Fortress. You know, we are already stronger than her."

Putilai said silently: "Whether she was deceived or not, she attacked the mission's convoy and committed numerous bloody crimes."

"Then what? Catch her and spank her?" Thales shook his head: "She is a political figure in the Eastern Continent. We need many legitimate reasons to keep her, and it is a lot of trouble in diplomacy."

and.

It also involves magicians.

It involves my secret.

The less trouble the better.

Putilai raised his eyebrows.

Thales sighed: "Believe me, the real culprit is still at large, and letting Katerina go is also causing trouble for him."

Zhan's face appeared before his eyes.

No matter why you want to kill me.

I won't sit still and wait for death.

And, Thales thought to himself: I may have found the key.

The key lies in the conversation on the day of the trip - something must have touched a nerve in Jenn.

Otherwise, he would not have been able to do such an unwise act, deceiving his allies and endangering himself.

"And she still carries that black coffin," Thales continued. His words made Putilai frown slightly: "Having that thing around means that the blood magician will come to us again."

Although she will definitely come to me.

【I will never let you suffer】
