Lord Highlander

This sudden battle ended before the exclamation of the crowd disappeared. At a height of several thousand meters, unless it was a bird with wings, anyone who jumped would almost fall to pieces. cake.

Of course, maybe these two swordsmen have some special ability that can stop them from falling at high speed, just like flying dandelions.

Aphrodite did not return to the magic airship, and returned to Hailansa decisively after finding nothing.

It's as if there were actually three assassins, two swordsmen and a magician...

Suldak treated the innocent and injured civilians. Captain Matthew stood on the deck with a team of crew members in horror. The assassination broke out on his magic airship. After being held accountable, he can hardly shirk the blame...

You must know that this is no ordinary nobleman, but the commander of the plane war, and he has made great achievements in the past six months.

If he was really killed on this magic airship, Captain Matthew might have the heart to jump off the ship...

Each ticket corresponds to a passenger. Without waiting for Suldak's order, Captain Matthew ordered the crew to start counting the people on board. Facts have proved that the list of people on the magic airship is useless at all. The airship is not short of people.

In other words, these two swordsmen sneaked in secretly, which is obviously not a difficult problem for those two swordsmen.

The wounds on the legs recovered quickly, and the blades of the two swordsmen were not poisoned, nor were they blessed with spells. The wounds of Suldak's current body of holy light recovered after only a quarter of an hour. Only a faint red line remained.

If two second-rank great swordsmen were lurking on the magic airship and assassinated him, as long as they failed to catch the assassin at the scene, it would be difficult to trace the identity of the assassin later.

But this time the opponent dispatched a third-rank grandmaster, the range is too small, and there are only a handful of third-rank grandmasters in the entire Grimm Empire.

In fact, there are only a few people in Bena Province, and Bena Province is also the hometown of famous swordsmen. Almost all of the most famous sword masters in the empire went out of Bena.

On the plane of Warsaw, Suldak only knew a third-rank grandmaster, the deputy head of the Bena Legion, the best friend of Duke Newman, and the Marquis of Scripps Balk.

However, this great swordsman returned to Bena City for vacation with Grand Duke Newman as early as one and a half months ago. Now there are only some logistics troops left in the Bena Legion on the Warsaw plane. In addition, Suldak and this Having met the legion leader several times, Suldak can be sure that the assassin was not Marquis Scripps Balk.

In fact, in the province of Bena, those who can become the third-rank masters are basically big figures with detached status. Even if they are not great lords, they must be famous grand masters.

In the province of Bena, there are only a handful of big shots whose strength has reached the third rank:

The person Suldak is most familiar with is the three-turn swordsmanship master Adolphus Dunstan. The great swordsman of the Dunstan family is currently in the Blue Bridge Fortress of the Great Battlefield. When Suldak entered the Great Battlefield, it was in This commander served under his command.

There are also two great sword masters, one is Dorty Armstrong, the dean of the Benar Advanced Swordsman Academy, and the other is the Marquis Scripps of the Benar Legion. Deputy Army Commander, both of them should be in Bena province at present.

It is not easy to be promoted to rank three grandmaster, once promoted successfully, it will be worshiped by countless people, and it is difficult not to be famous.

There was no reason for anyone of these three to sneak onto the magic airship and condescend to assassinate a Lord of Benar.

There may be other third-rank powerhouses on the Warsaw plane, but they are also grandmasters in the Evelsen province or other western provinces. Those master powerhouses may not be great sword masters...

Assassination of the legion commander of the Warsaw plane, once such a thing spreads, it can be said to be very serious.

It can be regarded as directly offending Archduke Newman of Bena Province...

Captain Matthew couldn't find out the identity of the assassin, so he could only strengthen the security forces in the noble area. He reported the situation on the magic airship to Suldak with great anxiety.

The crew had spent the night repairing the walls and windows of Suldak's cabin.

Suldak could only temporarily sit on the sofa in the captain's cabin. At this time, it was not easy to go to Hailansa City through the gate of void. The crew members in the captain's cabin were also trembling. Seeing the cat's mouse, I wish I could hide myself in the crevice of the floor.

The magic airship continued on its route, and Suldak felt that there was no need for the entire magic airship to return because of this matter. Besides, Handanar City might be more dangerous than Epsom City.

Several sword marks were scratched on the golden shield, and a big hole was also cut on the Schefterstambu battle armor.

Suldak frowned distressedly, thinking about what to do next.

...

Before the magic airship that Suldak was on arrived in Epsom City, news of the assassination of the commander of the West Route Army had already spread in Epsom City.

This is undoubtedly a blatant slap in the face of Duke Newman. Just after he and his Benar Legion left, Lord Benar was assassinated...

Even if someone openly stood up and shouted: 'This is a coincidence...'

I'm afraid no one will believe it.

The cake from the Warsaw plane was distributed to Grand Duke Newman, but the evil spirits on the Warsaw plane have not yet left, but the Pena Legion has withdrawn ahead of schedule...

Whether it is Everson's Busman family or the entire Western Cavaliers League, there are some complaints about this matter.

Therefore, many people think that behind this assassination, there is the shadow of the Busman family or the Western Cavaliers Alliance. After all, the other party is an outstanding young commander in the province of Bena. Passage in Yunling Highlands.

In this way, it can be regarded as a complete solution to the biggest hidden danger in Handanal County.

There are many nobles gathered in Epsom City, and many nobles are idlers who were forced to stay in Epsom City because they failed to get the teleportation pass...

Of course, there were also those who came in from the outside with the Western Knights Alliance, and everyone was guessing the identity of these two assassins.

When the nobles and lords discussed this matter, they almost always brought in those masters who could name them, but then everyone discovered that these experts were currently in various war zones, no matter how noble their identities were, During this period of time, there was no way for them to run to the magic airship in Handanal City.

In addition, no one would do such a stupid thing, risking the risk of offending Grand Duke Newman to assassinate a battlefield commander, there is simply no benefit...

With the exception of the three master masters from Bena province, the identity of this great sword master immediately became an unsolved case.

...

The magic airship arrived at the airport pier in Epsom City on the morning of the seventh day, that is, in late August of the imperial calendar.

When docked at the Epsom City Airport Wharf, even the platform of the high tower was covered with heavy infantry soldiers with shields, and the archery towers and pointed roofs around the high tower were full of archers. They are all ready to stare at the airship that came from Handanar County.

Hundreds of civilians were carrying luggage, standing silently on the deck, not daring to move.

At this moment on the airport pier, it seems that the air has condensed.

And the knights and nobles in the noble area did not disembark, and everyone waited quietly in the cabin.

Suldak walked out of the cabin, and found that he was the first to disembark, and the airport pier was crowded with infantry soldiers, looking a little serious.

But there is nothing for him here, and no one stopped him when he walked out of the airport terminal.

Magic caravans were parked outside the airport pier. Suldak found one at random and walked into the car. He was wearing the Shaftstanbu battle armor, but he forgot to wear the noble badge on his chest. This epic battle armor has already It is full of scars and messy magic lines, and it looks no different from those ordinary armors.

Besides, there are so many constructed knights coming out of the airport pier, the coachman doesn't care at all...

"Go to the Maple Leaf Hotel in the central square." Suerdak said the address, and got into the carriage without asking the price.

The coachman hurriedly helped Suldak close the door. It was still extremely hot in Epsom City at the end of August, and the windows of the carriage were all open. The carriage of this magic caravan happened to be a small carriage with four people sitting side by side.

The driver's seat is almost back to back with the front seat of the carriage, only separated by the thin carriage...

"My lord, the Maple Leaf Hotel should be full at this time. If you want to stay in a hotel, you can find a room a little further away from the Central Hotel."

The coachman was very talkative, but Suldak felt that he might have a commission agreement with a certain hotel, so he didn't bother to talk to him at all.

Seeing that Suldak didn't speak, the coachman didn't mind.

Then he said: "Recently, the second echelon heavy cavalry regiment of the Western Knights Alliance just came in in large numbers, and the hotels around the square were full of officers from the military merchant group and logistics troops. They also wanted to count the number of people entering Epsom City. The number of supplies and troops, unless you are lucky, otherwise there will be no vacancy here."

Suldak didn't speak, but looked out the window...

After ten years of war between planes, Epsom City has become a down and out city.

But the city looks much better than half a year ago. The main road in front of the airport terminal is lined with four-wheeled carriages transporting supplies, and the streets are no longer crowded with refugees and homeless people. There are tents on the sidewalks on both sides. They all disappeared too.

The shops that had already locked their doors have started to open again.

From the cracks in some window glass, it can be seen that some turmoil has taken place here.

"Where are you from?"

"Handanall County."

"Oh, I heard that there was an assassination incident on a magic airship coming from Handanal County. It is said that a big man in the province of Bena was assassinated. Now the entire city of Epsom is under martial law. The knights in the guard battalion The lords are all checking those fighters who have no identity but seem to be well-equipped, but they have found some absconding members of the riot group."

"..."

Suldak didn't speak, his eyes were attracted by a group of knights riding black scaled horses.

"Since you are from Handanal County, can you tell me about the assassination incident on the airship? You may not know it. The strong seek revenge, the commander of the Benar Legion is really unlucky..."

Suldak was a little speechless, he couldn't figure out where his luck was going.

"What's there to say? The assassination incident broke out suddenly. By the time everyone realized it, the two assassins had already jumped off the magic airship." Suldak responded casually.

"You mean they jumped off the airship? They jumped directly from a height of several thousand meters? Didn't that person fall into a meatloaf? I heard that the assassinated commander broke a leg?"

"..."

Suldak didn't know how to answer again, he looked down at his right leg, the crack on the trouser armor hadn't been repaired yet.

After a pause, Suldak said, "The leg is not broken, but I heard it was just injured."

"I think you'd better not go to the hotel in the central square. Listen to me. There is a good hotel two streets away. The maids in that hotel are not only beautiful, but also fair-skinned. It's not expensive if you want to spend the night with her... ..."

The coachman chattered about his second job, and Suldak stopped talking.

This road is quite congested, mainly because there are often heavy cavalry passing by. When those black-scaled horses walk through the street, the ancient Bolai horses pulling the magic caravan will avoid it and dare not take a step at all.

The closer to the central square, the more pedestrians on the street.

Suldak had already seen the long queue of refugees waiting to return to the Grimm Empire. They stretched out along the sidewalk in the central square for nearly two kilometers. Everyone carried luggage on their backs, and the transmission pass was some cardboard. , hung around the neck.

It looks like a price tag hanging around the neck of a slave waiting to be sold in a slave market...

Although in such a hot weather, everyone lined up in a long line, but no one complained or complained.

The people here have already seen the hope of going home. Leaving Warsaw is the most urgent thing for them to do. Since they can get the number plate, it means that it will be realized soon. What's so hard?

Cavalry regiments came out from the central square of the portal. Even though the coachman had said that these cavalry were troops from the Western Knights Alliance, Suldak did not expect that there would be troops coming from the empire at this time.

Teams of convoys transporting supplies parked aside, and the supplies piled up on the square were being transported away one after another.

There are many shops on both sides of the street, and there are many more trading houses than half a year ago. The street is very lively. There are homeless people and refugees among the pedestrians. They wander around the central square, looking for an opportunity to sneak into the portal.

The order in the central square was awe-inspiring, and the magic caravan slowly stopped at the entrance of the Maple Leaf Hotel.

This hotel is not too big, but the architectural style of the hotel is very unique, and the rooms inside are also very stylish. It is a hotel that only accepts nobles.

Suldak stepped out of the carriage and stood on the steps of the hotel entrance.

The coachman was not in a hurry to drive away in the magic caravan, he made a final attempt: "My lord, you can first ask if the rooms here are full, and if they are full, you can still leave in my carriage. Nice to rent a magic caravan..."

Before the coachman finished speaking, the door of the hotel was pushed open by an officer, who quickly walked up to Suldak and gave a military salute before saying, "Commander Suldak, Your room has been arranged..."

The coachman's half-open mouth was fixed in mid-air.

At this moment, his voice was completely hoarse.

‘Commander Suldak...isn’t he the unlucky guy who was assassinated by the airship? '

Didn't he say he broke a leg? Such a famous commander has no convoy to pick him up...

He even rode in his magic caravan...

And what did I say when I was driving just now...

Introduce him to a small hotel with special services, and say...

He is unlucky...

The coachman swung his whip and lashed the horse's butt fiercely. The carriage that had been parked on the side of the road left the arrow first, and then rushed out, merged into the traffic, and soon disappeared.
