"Haha, there is actually a solution to this problem." Victor smiled and said mysteriously: "When Fernando founded this country, he selected a piece of land as a base for the future unification of the continent. It was a plain. , and it is considered rich in alfalfa used for raising horses."
"Cassano." Faras guessed the answer immediately. Victor nodded and said, "Yes, the ancestors of the three Cassano families were actually followers of Fernando I. It's a pity that Fernando I died early. , after his son succeeded to the throne, he focused entirely on how to control power, but since then, there has never been a king who worked hard to govern, and he was all immersed in power and enjoyment. "
"Take the Magic Guild as an example. As a powerful group in the empire, the monthly subsidy for magicians is actually paid by the Magic Guild itself. It has nothing to do with the Empire. Think about the battle of Sunrise City that year. The Magic Guild of Moonlight City at least Three thousand high-level magicians were dispatched. Hum, it would be great to have one-tenth of the entire continent now. Without the support of national power, it would be a huge burden to support a huge selection, training, and promotion system. Is this an easy thing to spend money on? Human beings relied on holy knights and magicians to achieve that kind of glory. However, the successors kept suppressing them because they were worried that magicians would replace the status of holy knights. Humph, a bunch of idiots from the Fernando family.”
Although she heard Victor insulting the royal family in front of her, Faras did not feel angry at all, but felt a little disappointed. In fact, 200 years ago was the most glorious moment for mankind in thousands of years. Other creatures on the continent All races have recognized the dominance of humans. Opponents, such as the orcs, were ruthlessly expelled to the North Tarun grasslands where the living environment is even worse. Unfortunately, humans themselves have lost this opportunity due to internal political struggles. Now even because of some Human ambition has brought the entire human world to the brink of chaos,
"Okay, remembering the past should wait until you are too old to move. Let's talk about the third question just now." Victor brought the topic back again: "How could that young woman do it so late? Don’t you think it’s strange to come to a place like this?”
At Victor's reminder, Faras immediately discovered that the surrounding area was full of bustling streets. It was indeed strange for a commoner, or a beautiful girl, to come here late at night. Thinking of this, Faras Lasi felt a little annoyed about her ability. Even in the past three years, she still couldn't be a fully qualified leader. Apart from anything else, her sensitivity to things was always very poor. Many things required Vicki's help. It takes more than a few pointers to think of the possible meaning behind it.
"Bang bang." Faras gently tapped the carriage compartment with her fingers, making a crisp and soft sound. Then Faras said to herself: "Go check the details of that woman, and remember not to alarm her." Don't let anyone else notice it."
After saying these words, the carriage started to drive slowly again. The wooden wheels rolled on the bluestone street, making a creaking sound. The girl who was holding the cloth and had just been harassed by the drunken rich man looked indifferently. She looked at the carriage slowly driving away, then turned and walked into a dark alley, but she didn't notice that a vague shadow followed her far behind.
When Faras and Victor were enjoying their lunch at noon the next day, a complete report was placed in front of them, but Faras did not read the report because she had it in her hand. This is a detailed description of the two competitive competitions Ryan participated in this morning.
Different from the time a few years ago, since Ryan is now the ambitious Cassano overlord, his methods in the game are quite direct and effective. Often the referee has just announced the start of the game and will soon announce the end of the game. There is only a few casting times of level 3 magic in between.
"It seems that this Fabia is pretty good." Even though they already knew Ryan's true identity, Faras and the others still had to pretend to be indifferent on the surface, so Faras naturally had to use Ryan's current pseudonym.
"It's time to get in touch with him." Victor cooperated with Faras and said: "After all, it is the knockout round. It is normal that the strength gap between the players is very big. But once he enters the finals, then the entire Cassano will also be affected by him. If he is more famous, then we will have to pay more to reach an agreement with him."
"Well, I asked them to come up with the final plan before tomorrow morning. We must contact him tomorrow night at the latest." Faras took a sip of wine and said softly: "If you want me to do it myself, Do you want to go? Cassano is a small city with a population of only a few hundred thousand, so it seems unnecessary."
Victor secretly laughed at Farasi's excellent acting skills. He shook his head and said: "No, we must go in person. This shows our sincerity. In addition, I will also go with you, so as to show the power in our hands and let everyone know their sincerity." He understands that we are not indispensable to him, which saves him from asking too high a price.”
"Oh, okay." Faras responded lightly, and then put down the information about Ryan. A servant quickly picked up the wine flask and filled Faras's empty crystal glass with bright red wine, and then filled it with bright red wine. Farasi's favorite pan-fried veal steak was moved in front of her.
Faras and Victor quickly enjoyed lunch. After the servants who served them cleaned up the place, Victor immediately activated the defensive magic circle in the entire study. At this time, Faras said with relief: " Sigh, it feels really bad to be pretentious, but, Teacher Victor, since we already know who is Catherine’s spy, why don’t we drive her away.”
"Haha, if you drive away the first one, there will be a second one." Victor said, "Wouldn't it be great to keep her and let her leak the information we need to leak."
"Well, I'm just not used to this kind of acting feeling." Faras said a few words casually, and then picked up the information about the girl that she had asked someone to investigate last night, although the information was only placed here. , but Faras attaches great importance to the security of her study and intelligence system, so she is not worried about sneaking in here to peek.
The spy left by Faras and the others was just a servant. She and several other people would only be allowed to come in to serve Faras when she was dining in the study. The spy could only use this time to gain access to Faras's core secrets. But she just listened secretly. If she dared to look at the things here at will, the guards guarding here would remove her mercilessly. This was Victor's order.
"Jossa." Faras saw a name that he had known before on this piece of information. Victor heard Faras's tone of voice was different, so he asked, "What's wrong?"
Faras did not answer Victor's question immediately, but carefully read the entire information from beginning to end, then sighed and placed a stack of information on the table.
"If this information is correct, this Yosha is the girl Ryan and I have been looking for after escaping from the Thunder God Fortress back to the Imperial Capital. It's a pity that the orcs followed her at that time. After winning the battle to defend the Imperial Capital, , there is no way to find her again." Faras said,
Victor didn't know about this. He took the information that Faras put down, but found that after his investigation, the girl named Yosha seemed to have become a spy for some kind of secret organization. Her current identity is that of a certain The seamstress in the tailor shop often delivers a lot of fabrics to people's homes, or goes to other people's homes to sew clothes for others. Unfortunately, her actions are too obvious, and Farasi's intelligence system has already focused on her. It was just that she had to slowly dig out the tissue behind her, so she was not arrested.
According to the information in this intelligence and the author’s speculation, the girl named Josha’s father was once a tailor in a well-known tailor shop in the imperial capital. When Fernando and Catherine got married, they had to rush to make a lot of clothes. , so they were all recruited into the palace, but assassinations and riots occurred that night. Because the assassins probably entered the palace among them, these people were all placed under house arrest.
According to the inference of the writer of this intelligence, Josha and the people who were under house arrest at the time probably escaped while the orcs were attacking the city, and the secret organization behind her probably also took advantage of Josha's ability to do so. experience, using her own experiences and the death of her lover Bart to stimulate her revenge on the imperial capital,
"So that's it." Victor nodded slightly and put the information on the table. If he were a magician full of power desires, he might not even care about such a small person, and would just arrest him and torture him. Okay, if you don’t want to confess, as an archmage, he can use some terrible magic to realize his intentions. Unfortunately, Victor himself is also a commoner, and he can’t care less about human life, so he can only wait for the law. Drawing to hair and falling,
Farasi gently opened the bottom drawer of the desk, and found a box carefully carved from mahogany from the innermost part of the drawer. After opening the fist-sized box, there was a box of at most 20 silver coins placed inside. The ring still has some blood stains on it. If you calculate the value, the box is worth a hundred times more than the ring.
"This is the new friend Ryan made in Thor Fortress, the engagement ring of Bart and his fiancée Josha. Later, Bart died for the country. Before his death, he hoped that Ryan could find Josha for him." Faras' tone was very flat. , but Victor can still hear a hint of sadness in this dullness,
"Then what are you going to do with this Josha?" Victor hesitated for a while, and finally asked this sentence that made him feel disgusted.
"I don't know." Faras shook his head and said, "She is the fiancée of a martyr and should be respected by us; but now she has become a member of a secret organization that opposes the imperial capital. This crime can already be used to secretly arrest her and Executed."
