Great Nobleman

Under Howard's leadership, the crowd walked all the way to a grocery store.

Before entering, Howard explained:

"Have you seen the flower mark on the lintel? That is the logo of this intelligence organization. It is said that it is a rare magic plant called iris!

In addition, in the battle with the unknown forces last night, their members made great efforts, and even an enemy knight died in their hands. "

Hearing such inside information, the group was a little surprised.

Havel said curiously:

"Could they be a force under the command of a certain noble in the Kaya Empire?"

Howard nodded and explained:

"Members of the Inquisition Division conducted an investigation into the organization when it first entered Hamm County.

Halfway through the investigation, it was discovered that nobles were involved behind this organization.

As a result, the investigation file was sealed, and the relevant personnel signed a confidentiality contract, and the investigation was forced to terminate.

Investigations involving nobles must first obtain permission from the Headquarters of the Imperial Capital's Judiciary Division! "

After hearing this fact, Javier suddenly frowned and said:

"Magic crossbows are also quite attractive to nobles, right?

If the forces behind this intelligence organization are really nobles, why would they sell the information to the Inquisitor?

They can go over and get the magic crossbow by themselves, can't they? The Inquisition Division will not easily investigate nobles. "

For this question, Howard actually had some doubts at first.

But in the end, he found the answer from many possibilities:

"It is very likely that their intelligence cannot allow people to obtain a complete magic crossbow, and the magic crossbow may have been damaged!"

While chatting like this, everyone also walked into the grocery store.

There is no need for them to open their mouths to reveal their identities and intentions.

The clerk of the grocery store warmly invited them to the reception room on the second floor.

Here, they meet the owner of the grocery store.

After a brief introduction, the owner of the grocery store said bluntly to Howard:

"Recently, a total of nine magic crossbows were sold at the black market auction.

We have all the information on these nine magic crossbows, and our information can also allow you to easily complete the task of the Inquisition Division.

But I just don’t know if the funding you applied for is enough! "

Hearing the boss's domineering words, Howard couldn't help being a little stunned.

After thinking briefly, he tentatively bargained:

"We, the Judiciary, can be considered your regular customers. Don't you want to give us some discounts?"

The boss smiled and said:

"Of course there are discounts, but even if there are discounts, the price of advanced armaments like the Magical Crossbow will not be too low.

So it still depends on whether your funds are sufficient.

If the funding is really not enough, you can also try to apply for more funding.

Or you can also calculate whether you will get more out of your own pocket.

After all, if you find more magic crossbows, you can also get more mission rewards, right?

Anyway, everyone earns magic gold coins together, a win-win situation! "

Hearing the boss' tricky win-win approach, the group couldn't help being a little stunned.

——But when you think about it, it makes sense!

——But I just feel so angry!

But what was different from the others was that Finn looked at the boss in front of him speechlessly.

Although I also know that the boss should want to earn more magic gold coins for Brand.

But it's fine to trick other people, why did he get tricked too?

—He and Brand are good friends!

Finn wanted to stand up and say something.

But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't help but recall the contract he signed with Brand.

——Let the boss do it, and the money will be refunded!

Suddenly realizing that he was the one who was in the wrong, Finn closed his mouth again with an aggrieved expression.

Next, after a while of relentless bargaining, waiting for Harward to go back and apply for a while, and finally discussing for a while, they finally scraped together the magic gold coins that bought the information on seven magical crossbows.

——The funds of the Judgment Division can only buy up to six information planes, and they paid part of it out of their own pockets.

After placing the magic gold coin on the table, what surprised everyone was:

The boss only accepted magic gold coins worth six magic crossbows.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a large pile of wreckage of the magic crossbow.

Seeing that everyone was puzzled, the boss smiled and explained:

"In fact, I just want to earn a little money for the trial division!

These are the wreckages of the nine magic crossbows we collected from Free Iris, I believe they should be able to help you complete your mission. "

Hearing what the boss said, he looked at the wreckage of the magic crossbow all over the floor.

Everyone except Howard couldn't help but wonder what kind of expression they should show.

——Earning funds for the trial division or something, you'd be done if you didn't say it!

Seemingly aware of everyone's thoughts, the boss explained with a smile:

"If I had said earlier, I wouldn't be able to get so many magic gold coins!"

And at this time, looking at the many wreckages on the ground, Howard, a member of the Judgment Division, frowned and said:

"You didn't buy the magic crossbow on the black market, did you? And after you bought it back, you disassembled it for research? This is a felony!"

The boss put his hands behind his back, smiled and shook his head and said:

"Don't talk nonsense about things without evidence, anyway, the information I got is like what I just said, if you don't believe me, you can take out the lie detector device and test it.

Or you can ask the leader of our organization, but if you want our leader to cooperate, you must first obtain the permission of the headquarters of the Imperial Capital Judgment Department. "

Hearing such rascal words from the boss, Howard didn't say any more.

Many tasks performed by the Inquisition Division will encounter similar situations.

Because the matter involved nobles, even if they applied to the headquarters of the Imperial Capital Judicial Department.

Unless the incident is very serious, their application will not be approved.

——Having spent so many years in the Judgment Division, Howard is more open-minded.

Next, Howard and the others took the wreckage of the magic crossbow to the Division of Judgment to submit the task.

By the time they returned to the hotel, it was almost noon.

Brand and Catherine who went out have returned.

And what surprised everyone was:

Next to Brand and Catherine was a woman wearing strength-limiting shackles, with ropes and restraints all over her body.

—Theisalie Carlson!

Howard said curiously:

"Mr. Brand, have you caught this lady? Do you need me to help you contact the three noble descendants in exchange for a reward?"

Brand shook his head and said:

"No need, I have already communicated with the academy, and when we leave, she will return to the imperial capital with us."

Hearing what Brand said, Finn suddenly became curious and said:

"Isn't it good to hand her over to those three noble descendants? They offered a high reward."

To this question, Brand responded meaningfully:

"Compared with offering a reward or something, she is more valuable to me."

Hearing this, Tienian turned and left with a displeased face.

——In her opinion, Brand was planning to use Hisalley to satisfy his evil intentions.

After watching Tianian walk away in doubt, Brand didn't explain further.

This Ms. Hisalley was actually a "gift" from Chris to him.

According to Chris, in the previous defensive battle of Weller City, this Ms. Hisaly was one of the strength of the opponent's three great knights!

——During the battle, she used the exclusive secret method of the Bruns Empire to raise her strength to the level of a great knight!

Not to mention the usefulness of this secret method to him, Hisalley's identity and the information he knows may also be able to help the empire with diplomatic affairs.

In the military affairs department's battle report, the lady and another great knight who also used the secret method failed to attack the city and retreated.

And what everyone doesn't know is:

The opponent was ambushed by Chris on the way back.

Because that kind of secret method seems to be unable to be used continuously, and also has the side effect of falling into a weak state after use.

The semi-disabled big knight golem brought many high-level knight golems and caused great trouble to the opponent!

During the chaotic battle, the night elf named Valya sneaked into the enemy's formation and successfully kidnapped the lady Hisalie!

Although Chris achieved such results in the end, Brand still gave a serious lecture after learning what happened.

——Chris is an ordinary person without any supernatural powers.

Even with the protection of his spell scroll, the battlefield is still a very dangerous place!

For Brand's preaching and concern, Chris naturally accepted it with a smile.

——but obviously, she would dare to do it again next time!

In desperation, Brand had no choice but to prepare more spell scrolls for Chris.

He prepared one for each of the Twilight Cross and Space Stone.

In addition, after taking back the half-mutilated Great Knight Golem, he gave Chris two intact Great Knight Golems.

Under such complete protection, as long as she doesn't die, Chris's life should not be in any danger.

...

When Brand and others used the teleportation circle in Mana City to return to the imperial capital.

Chris is riding a carriage, heading for a location outside the Kaya Empire.

On the carriage, a night elf named Valya suddenly appeared, and she asked Chris with a puzzled look:

"Chris, why don't you ask Mr. Brand to help you?"

Hearing this question, Chris responded without thinking:

"Brand needs to prepare for the duel and not be distracted."

The night elf asked again:

"You can also wait until after his duel is over, can't you?"

Chris shook her head and said:

"Bland's spell scroll should be enough, and I can't wait!"
