The Sword and The Shadow

Chapter 401: Langmire and Kordak

Views:

"Who are you looking for? Lanmir?" Kordak thought he hadn't heard clearly. He opened his eyes as big as a bull's eye, and then repeated it to the guards who came over.

"Yes, Miss Lanmere." The guard confirmed, "She left General Manhattan a few days ago and has been missing since. General Manhattan said she might be here."

Kordak scratched his thick black hair, and then said: "I didn't see her. I just came down from the front line. How could she be here with me?"

"General Manhattan is very sure that Miss Lanmere is here." The guard emphasized mechanically.

"She's really not here..." Kordak sighed, and then said helplessly.

"Then can you let us search it?" the guard said expressionlessly: "Only in this way can we go back to work with complete confidence."

"What a joke! I, Kordak, am already a corps commander." Kordak said arrogantly: "How come you guys want to search my territory without a token from your superiors? There is no way!"

"This is General Manhattan's order." The guard was not angry at Kordak's arrogant and domineering attitude. He just took out the token expressionlessly and waved it in front of the stunned Kordak: " Excuse me, can we conduct a search now?"

"..." Kordak didn't expect the guard to be so straightforward in his work, and his mind didn't turn around for a while.

When the guard saw Kordak didn't respond, he thought it was time to conduct a search, so he waved his hand and signaled his men to start the search. Although there are as many as 5,000 people in a regiment, it is not easy to search them. But the guards also knew that if Lanmir was here, he would only hide in the regiment commander's camp in Kordak, so they just planned to search this area.

"Wait a minute! Come back!" Kordak then realized what they were going to do, and he shouted angrily: "I asked you to search, so you rushed inside?"

"I have already shown the general's warrant. Do you have any other reason to refuse our search?" the guard couldn't help but asked a little strangely.

"No, no!" Kordak waved his hands a little irritably: "I can't let you search."

"Why?"

"I'm in a bad mood!" Kordak raised his voice a little more.

But what he said was quite true. He had always felt inexplicably irritable these past few days, and he didn't know why.

Xiao Lei

Not quite right. Although I heard that this kid was impulsive and went to the red flame magician Saron to fight for his life, and he was beaten into a pig's head and almost died there. But this news came along with another news.

Another news is that Annelotte ran to Costa Fortress alone and not only rescued Regnar who was risking his life to show off, but also almost died there. Moreover, he single-handedly killed the red flame magician Saron, known as "the strongest of the young generation", and finally defeated a thousand-man brigade from the Stoke Empire!

To be honest, Kordak was also shocked when he heard about Annelotte's achievements. From the first time he saw Annelotte, Kordak knew that this woman was scary, very scary. So Kordak was always wary of Annelotte at the beginning, but after experiencing some things later, Kordak gradually changed his view of Annelotte and gradually trusted this girl.

But trust is trust, and Kordak always understood that Annelotte was ridiculously strong in all aspects. But he never expected that Annelotte would be so strong. After hearing the news, Kordak was completely relieved of Annelotte. Because he understood that Annelotte's intention of hiding her strength was not to avoid others' suspicion, but just to take care of Regner's emotions.

Thinking of this, Kordak understood how much Annelotte cared about Regnar. Because of this, Kordak finally agreed with Vera's words. Annelotte could never be the nail placed by Villes around Regner.

So, if it wasn't Regnar, what was Kordak still worried about? War? Although the war situation is still a bit stalemate, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Stoke Empire will not last long!

But apart from these two, what other problems could there be? Could it be Vera

How can it be! This woman is also shrewd now. She has probably run to Merindel this time, right? She was running slowly on horseback, so she was probably so busy that she forgot to reply to herself when she arrived at Merindle.

If Vera is okay too, what could be the reason? Kordak was puzzled, so he seemed very agitated these days.

"Please don't make trouble unreasonably." The guard said calmly.

"You are the ones making trouble unreasonably, right?" Kordak rolled his eyes and said in a bachelor's manner: "You come to me for no reason to ask for someone, and you come to my territory to search for no reason. I have tolerated you enough so far. Okay? I tell you clearly that Lan Mir is not here, and your search will be in vain!"

"Boss!" Rondo's voice came in from outside the tent. The rough man yelled at the top of his voice: "There is a girl who wants to see you. She said her name is Lanmir! I can't stop her. Stop! Is this your new mistress? Ouch! Damn it... Why did you, a bitch, do something to your Mr. Rondo?!"

"Hmph! What do you think of teaching you a lesson if you speak freely?"

Kordak couldn't help but put his hands on his forehead when he heard the woman's voice, because the voice really belonged to Lanmir...

Damn it, I just said that Lanmir was not here, but she came running like this... Is this what you guys have agreed upon? Do you like being slapped in the face so much...

"Kordak! Come out and see me! Didn't you promise me that if I have any difficulties, I can come to you? Now that I'm here to come to you, will you help me or not?" Lanmir shouted loudly at this time, completely She no longer has the ladylike image she had when we first met.

"What the hell... Why is this woman like Vera now..." Kordak put his hand on his forehead, sighed helplessly, and then ordered the soldiers around him: "Tell Londo to let her in... "

After a while, Lanmir arrived at Kordak's camp under the leadership of the guards. Unlike before, Lanmire now looked a little embarrassed. The light golden cloth robe on her body has been dyed dark gold by dust. Her originally pretty face is also slightly dull because of the dust, and her long dark golden hair is stuck together because it has not been washed for a long time. It looks like It became wisps.

"I thought you didn't dare to see me anymore." Lanmir originally told Kordak with a lot of grievances, but seeing so many people around her, she finally restrained her emotions and just said lightly Complained.

"How could that be?" Kordak showed a bitter smile: "Are you okay?"

"Look at how I look now, do I seem to be doing well?" Lanmir's eyes widened and he asked angrily.

"Uh... It's not like..." Kordak rubbed his nose, and then said with a smile: "During this period... you have worked hard, do you have anything to do with me?"

"Of course there is something!" Lanmir nodded: "I..."

"My subordinate has met Miss Lanmire." Before Lanmire could finish speaking, the guard who came to look for Lanmire spoke first: "My subordinate is the squad leader of the first defense class of General Manhattan's personal guard. This time, I am under the command of General Manhattan. I have received the order to look for Miss Lanmere, and the general asked his subordinates to take you back."

"..." Lanmir's face immediately turned ugly when she heard this. She didn't expect that her grandfather would guess her whereabouts so quickly and even arrive at Kordak one step ahead of her. what to do? Now she didn't explain anything to Kordak, and she was afraid that she would be taken back again this time.

"I won't go back!" Lanmir shouted angrily: "I don't want to marry that idiot. What on earth is grandpa thinking?! How could he do this to me?!"

"I don't know so much. I was just ordered to take you back." The guard was still not angry and just stated his mission lightly.

"Are you going on a blind date?" Kordak couldn't help but be stunned.

"So what?" Lanmir asked angrily, but when he looked at Kordak, he already had a look of pleading that could not be concealed.

"Uh... congratulations..." Kordak was a little upset after hearing Lanmir's admission. He didn't notice Lanmir's eyes and just said casually.

"You!!!" Lanmir's face turned a little pale when he heard Kordak say this. She originally wanted to say something to Kordak, but the guard came up at this time.

"Miss Lanmere, please come back with us. The general is very worried about you." the guard said calmly.

"I won't go back!" Lanmir shouted again, her eyes drifting to Kordak from time to time, as if she wanted to pray for that man to do something.

But Kordak disappointed her. He seemed very absent-minded from the beginning. At this time, he was like a foreign object in his mind, as if he was completely unaware of the surrounding situation.

"The general said, if you don't agree, we can use force." The guard said calmly: "The results are the same. I think it is better for you to be more obedient."

"What else can you do to me if I disobey?" Lanmir finally showed a bit of the savagery of the general's granddaughter.

"Miss Lanmere, please don't make things difficult for us errands, okay?" the guard made one last attempt.

"I won't go back, you have to go back on your own! Whoever wants to marry Kangelas can marry him! I will never go back!" Although Kordak's performance made Lanmir feel despair, but at this time, even for the sake of For his own happiness, Lanmier didn't want to go back just like that.

"In this case, I have no choice but to offend you..." the guard said helplessly.

As the squad leader of General Manhattan's personal guard, the guard naturally has strength far beyond ordinary people. Although he has not yet entered the advanced level, his thirteenth level of fighting spirit is enough for him to easily subdue Lanmir. Then she winked at the few followers around her, and these people skillfully subdued the struggling Lanmir.

"Now that the person has been found, we will take him away without disturbing you." The guard did not forget to say hello to Kordak before leaving.

"..." Kordak still didn't respond.

The guard didn't wait for Kordak to answer after he finished speaking. He nodded to the follower beside him. Then he carried the struggling Lanmir and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Kordak finally spoke just as the guard was about to walk out of the tent.
