Regnar has been feeling a little irritable recently, although being used to kill Regal made him feel a little unhappy. But that wasn't the only thing he always found unpleasant.
He has now entered the territory of the Hawke Empire, and is about three or four days away from Melinder. Regnar desperately wanted to return there for the first time, because only by returning there could he master the intelligence of the entire empire. Only then could he understand where his uneasiness came from.
"Sir..." the coachman outside spoke. Because Regner came back suddenly this time, there were only one coachman and two followers following him. Regnar naturally sat in the carriage, with two attendants outside riding horses, and the coachman was responsible for driving the carriage.
At this time, the carriage stopped, and the driver spoke, as if something was wrong.
"What's wrong?" Regnar asked.
"Someone asked to see him. He said his name was Snow." The coachman replied, although he had been following Regnar as a coachman. But the coachman had only been responsible for driving Regnar. Strictly speaking, he had never even entered the high-level areas of the Military Intelligence Office. So naturally the coachman didn't know Snow.
"Snow?" Regnar frowned. The last time Snow came to see him, he got to Inelis in time. Why did he come here again this time? Could it be that something happened to Inelise? No... Xiao Yi Ni was just frightened at that time. In fact, the injury was not serious. It was precisely because the doctor assured that Inelise would be alive and kicking in a few days that Regnar felt relieved and ran north.
Regnar took a deep breath and then opened the carriage door curtain. At this time, Snow was standing quietly in front of the carriage, waiting for Regnar's summons.
"Let him come in!" Regnar no longer had any doubts after confirming that it was Snow. He still believes in this Stoker man now. After all, if he hadn't been there last time, Inelise would have really It's dangerous...
"Sir." There were some beads of sweat on Snow's forehead at this time, and his eyes were a little tired, but he still saluted Regnar first, and then began to speak to Regnar in a steady and calm tone. Gener said: "There is one thing that I think you may be anxious about."
"Say." Regnar frowned, and the uneasiness in his heart seemed to become stronger.
"Before speaking, sir, please make sure you stay calm. Because the matter has been resolved now, you don't need to panic too much." Snow added cautiously.
"..." Regnar's heart thumped, but he still calmed down according to Snow's words, and then nodded: "Okay, I promise you."
"That's it." Snow took out a piece of information from his pocket and handed it to Regnar, and then said simply: "Just a few days ago, the Stoker Empire army defeated a general named David. Under the command of , and with the cooperation of the red flame magician Saron, they launched a surprise attack on us using group teleportation. The target of the surprise attack... is the Costa Fortress."
"Bang!"
Regnar's fighting spirit broke out in an instant, and the pure black shadow fighting spirit directly broke up the structure of the carriage, startling several people around him.
Snow was not surprised at all by Regner's reaction. He just continued in a calm tone: "Sir, please calm down. Miss Irene is fine."
Regnar's pupils regained a little luster. He tried his best to restrain his anger, and then asked in a hoarse voice: "Is she really okay?"
"Yes, Miss Irene is currently in a military camp in Locke Province. She is currently under very strict protection." Snow replied quickly.
"..." Regnar's expression softened a little, and he then asked, "What about Costa Fortress? How is it now?"
"Costa Fortress has fallen." Snow bowed his head slightly to express his condolences: "General Tamro and Mr. Pusko, the high-ranking mage guarding the fortress, have all sacrificed their lives for the empire."
"Click, click..."
Regnar's hands clenched loudly, although he was a little dissatisfied with Tamro's unceremonious use of him in the past period. But no matter what, Regnar still respects the supreme commander of this fortress. At least, he is a respectable soldier.
And now he heard that Tamro died in the Costa Fortress. Many of the reasons for this were that the intelligence from the Military Intelligence Office was not transmitted in time, so he couldn't help but feel guilty and angry about this.
"Why?" Regnar asked in a low voice: "Even if the Stoke Empire is secretive, it is impossible for such a large-scale military operation to be carried out without leaks! What are the informants hidden in the Stoke Empire? What are they for?"
"Sir..." Snow lowered his head: "I have checked before and they have indeed reported this matter, more than once."
"Then why didn't I know about this until now, until Fortress Costa fell?!" Regnar scolded.
"It is said..." Snow lowered his head: "It is said that the person who took over this information at that time... was Lord Alex..."
"boom!"
Regnar fell into rage again, Alex! It's Alex again! Since he took over this matter, there can only be one explanation for why this happened. Alex withheld this information privately! Is he plotting against the troops of Fortress Costa? Or maybe... he is plotting against Irene
Regnar was furious. Regnar didn't even care about the fact that Alex used him as a gunman to kill Regner. Unexpectedly, he actually planted a landmine for himself. What on earth is he going to do! What on earth is he planning! Was this his idea alone? Or was this the idea of Verless and his Moon Shadow Thieves Guild
"You'd better pray not to meet me again in the future!" Regnar gritted his teeth and thought to himself.
"Sir..." Snow staggered due to another outbreak of fighting spirit from Regnar just now. Seeing that Regnar was about to get angry again, he hurriedly came over: "Sir, please calm down, you should have more important things to do now. To do.”
"..." Regnar stared at Snow with cold eyes for a moment, and then he asked coldly: "I remember, you were promoted by Alex?"
"Yes..." Snow's heart trembled. He knew that if he was not careful now, he would be killed by Regnar on the spot. He first admitted this fact, and then said: "But I am not Lord Alex's subordinate, nor am I his spy. Please be aware of this."
"Mingcha?" Regnar sneered: "Alex promoted you from a marginalized outsider to the acting director of the Military Intelligence Department in just half a year. Even so, you have to say that you are not him His lackey?"
"Sir!" Snow said bravely: "Snow and his sister have been dependent on each other since childhood. My sister is the most important person to Snow. Later she died, and it was you who gave Snow a second life. Although Snow had suffered Lord Alex's favor, but in my opinion, you are the one who is truly grateful to me. Otherwise, why would Snow risk being suspected and come to deliver a message to you? Please believe me! "
"..." Regnar remained silent. He asked Garona, "Teacher..."
"I'm not sure whether he's telling the truth, but at least for now, nothing seems to be related to him. Besides, don't forget that you have more important things to do now," Garona replied.
"I understand..." Regnar calmed down for a moment, and then confirmed Garona's suggestion.
"Listen." Regnar said to Snow: "I won't pursue your relationship with Alex for now. Now, you go back with me first, I want to find Eileen."
"Thank you for your trust, sir." Snow finally breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, he realized something was wrong when he learned that the attack information on Fortress Costa was withheld by Alex. Regnar will definitely doubt his relationship with Alex because of this! Therefore, he ran out and admitted his mistake before Regnar found out about it. Now it seems that my choice is very wise.
"Let's go!" Regnar looked at the somewhat broken carriage, and then said to the others: "You guys let the horses out first, I have to rush back in a hurry."
"My lord..." Snow spoke again.
"What's wrong?" Regnar couldn't help but frown.
"That's right." Snow replied cautiously: "Before I left Merindl, I asked the Court Mage Association for two fixed-point teleportation runes. You can directly contact the Court Mage Association through this and ask them to teleport you. Go back. I've already said hello over there."
"Very good!" Regnar nodded with satisfaction. Although this Snow Snow has been silent all this time, he does things carefully and steadily. Could it be that I really blamed him wrongly
"Then the three of you ride back on your own. Snow and I will go back first. After you go back, just report back there." Regnar ordered the three of them.
"Yes!" The three followers also saw that Regner was not in a good mood, so they quickly agreed.
…
A few minutes later, Regnar walked out of the teleportation circle at the headquarters of the Palace Mage Association.
"Thank you." Regnar nodded to the palace mage who helped him teleport.
"It is my honor to serve Lord Regnar." Naturally, this mid-level mage would not put on airs in front of the Director of Military Intelligence.
Regnar nodded to him again, and then left with Snow.
"Do Annie and Yi Ni know about this?" Regner asked as he walked.
"I don't know. Misses Annelotte and Inelise are currently concentrating on the research of magic cannons. After discussing it with Lord Goethe, I decided to hide this matter from them first." Snow replied .
"You did a good job." Regnar nodded and couldn't help but look up to him a little more. He thought for a while as he walked, and then said: "Now go inside and prepare the horses and necessities for the journey. I will need them to leave Merindl in two hours."
"Xue Nuo understands, I will handle this matter well." Snow nodded.
