"You don't know about Nigrila?" The soldier looked at Regna with wide eyes, a bit of disbelief in his eyes.
"Is he famous?" Regnar asked calmly, "Why should I know about him?"
"Strictly speaking, he is indeed very famous." The soldier said seriously.
"Then tell me why." Regnar lowered his body and whispered.
Through the accounts of those three people, Regnar also knew the origin of this Nigrila.
It turns out that Nigrila was originally a newcomer trained by a very powerful thieves guild in the Hawke Empire. This guild calls itself Night Dancer, and was originally considered the largest thieves guild in the Hawke Empire. More importantly, this dark night dancer seems to have something to do with the Stoke Empire. It is said that a lot of information from the Hawke Empire was sent to the Stoke people through them.
But under the rule of the empire, Larvin would naturally not just watch such a powerful guild force take action in his own territory. However, because they were too secretive, although Larvin wanted to suppress them, he had nowhere to do it. He sent troops many times to clear out the Dark Night Dancer's stronghold, but these guys were as slippery as loaches. Many of his encirclement and suppression campaigns ended in failure, and the few successful ones only resulted in the arrest of a few insignificant characters.
This situation had lasted for several years until Villes appeared. As the leader of the largest thieves guild in the Eastern Continent, how can Verles' skills be compared to those of the Night Dancers? With the calculation of Villes and the cooperation of the Hawke Empire. The Military Intelligence Department quickly suppressed the Dark Night Dancer completely. They destroyed many Dark Night Dancer strongholds and arrested many members of the guild.
And this Nigrila is one of them. He was originally an elite talent carefully selected by the Dark Night Dancer, but he was captured by the Military Intelligence Agency during a joint mission. And this young man obviously didn't have much loyalty to his guild. Before the Military Intelligence Agency could torture him, Nigrila told him everything he knew about the Night Dancer. The Military Intelligence Agency also took this opportunity to use him to set up a trap for the Night Dancer.
In that battle, the Military Intelligence Division captured two members of the Night Dancer's Dark Night Council (the high-level council of the guild), and Nigrila even performed actively in this battle, killing a level 15 High level warrior.
After the incident was over, the Military Intelligence Office decided to shift its focus, so it made Nigrila's performance public. As a result, not only did the Night Dancer's successive revenges target Nigrila, there were also rumors among the people that he jumped over the rank and killed high-level warriors.
The Military Intelligence Office obviously has not done everything yet, although Nigrila's unhesitating rebellion makes them look down upon. But I have to say that he is indeed a talented assassin, and keeping him as a non-staff member is very useful.
Therefore, although the Night Dancer sent people to assassinate Nigrila many times, under the protection of the Military Intelligence Agency, the young man remained unscathed. In exchange, Nigrila also assassinated two enemy generals on the southern battlefield in accordance with the instructions of the Military Intelligence Office, which further increased Nigrila's reputation.
It can be said that apart from Dark Elegy, who single-handedly destroyed the Blood Hand Brotherhood a month ago, the most famous assassin in the Hawke Empire is probably Nigrila.
Regnar couldn't help but be stunned after hearing the three people's explanations. Seeing how arrogant and domineering Nigrila was, he originally thought he had a lot of background. Now it seems that he is just a defeated general. A short-sighted, arrogant and domineering idiot like him, no matter how talented he is, Regnar is not afraid of him.
However, Regnar was having trouble with how to get Kordak to take revenge. After all, Kordak is not Regnar. Although he can confidently say, "Then Nigrila is just a dish, one can fight three with the Dark Body", but Kordak can't do it. . After all, Nigrila is a man who has killed high-level warriors, and Kordak is just a thirteenth-level warrior. If they really fight head-on. Regnar wasn't sure if Kordak could beat him.
He also considered whether to kill this guy before the next game in Nigrila, but with Kordak's shrewdness, he would naturally guess who did it. Although Kordak will not resent Regnar for this, there is no doubt that this approach will seriously dampen Kordak's self-esteem as a man. Obviously, this is not advisable.
As for using hands and feet to weaken Nigrila before the game, doing this is actually not much different from killing Nigrila. Kordak would have figured it out too.
Therefore, Regnath thought about it many times, but still couldn't find a way to end it. He waved his hand impatiently and asked the two soldiers to take their companions back to heal their injuries.
Seeing that his companion was free, another soldier originally wanted to rebel, but he had to give up under the strong suppression of the leader. This shrewd warrior saw that although Regna was not much higher than the three of him, his strength was extraordinary. If a quarrel really breaks out, the three of them may not be a match for the masculine young man in front of them.
And a few days later, when they watched Regnar's game, they all couldn't help but feel happy that the captain had made a wise and prudent choice.
Of course, that was all a thing later. At this time, the three of them left the tavern with hateful expressions. Regnar, on the other hand, was sitting alone at the table, thinking about the countermeasures for this matter. But after repeated thoughts and no answer, he had no choice but to give up.
After all, it’s still one thing whether Kordak can meet Nigrila. Let’s wait until it happens.
…
Regnar thought well, because the matter turned around the next day.
On the afternoon of the next day, the organizers of the tournament announced the one hundred places that had passed the qualifying rounds (fifty for the low-level group and fifty for the middle-level group). Immediately afterwards, they announced the rules for the rematch.
The semi-finals are a group stage. The fifty people who passed the preliminaries plus the fourteen officially designated people make up a total of sixty-four and are divided into sixteen groups, with four people in each group. All contestants take turns competing with the other three people in the group. The winner gets one point and the loser gets zero points. The two players with the highest final scores passed the rematch and entered the top 32.
Neither Regner nor Kordak were placed in a group, and the three people in the same group were all strangers. It was Nigrila's group that caught Regnar's attention, because besides Nigrila, there was a more crucial person in that group. That's Annelotte.
Yes, Annelotradis. When Regnar saw this name, his heart even stopped for two beats.
Finally, he finally heard from her again, and he finally saw her... name again. Although it was just a name, this name also relieved Regnar's heart that had been hanging around for the past few days.
In fact, he has been very afraid these days, afraid that Annelotte will not participate in this competition, afraid that she will run away to a place far, far away, a place he will never find. If this is the case, Regnar really doesn't know what to do next. But, Gods willing, Annie did participate in the game after all.
Then, it won't be long before Regnar can see her.
Regnar stared blankly at the list posted by the organizer, and his hands trembled slightly. Kordak, who was accompanying him, also became silent when he saw this group. He patted Regna on the shoulder: "Well, we will be able to see her in the past few days. Vera's injuries It’s not healed yet… I’m going back first.”
"Finally, I can finally see you again." Regnar took a deep breath. He looked at the name again. After confirming that it was really the name of the person in his heart, he felt relieved. turned around and left with Kordak.
