Leo heard the name Baron Maupassant from what Sean said to Nelson in the Broken Bridge Square, and he also habitually collected information related to it through the accessory brain system.

Sean originally wanted to plot against Baron Maupassant and take advantage of his French royal blood, but because Nelson appeared so coincidentally, he replaced him with Nelson. Of course, there are issues such as difficulty and success rate.

And know it.

From Sean's words, we can know that Baron Maupassant was also there when Leo and the others were in Rabbit Skin Town. It is really intriguing that such a high-status baron sneaked into a small place like Rabbit Skin Town.

Think about the current struggle for the throne in the French royal family, think about where Baron de Maupassant is standing, and think about how Baron de Maupassant who should be on the mainland train was transferred to this ordinary intercity train and was assassinated. Lei

Ou almost didn't need to use his accessory brain system to analyze. He could figure out what was going on just by relying on his own reasoning.

As for the delay of this steam train, I am afraid it was not a natural disaster as explained by the station. As for what happened in the afternoon, you can guess it with a little thought. It was nothing more than intercepting, escaping, and changing trains.

kind of things.

Thinking of this, Leo had the urge to jump out of the car to avoid getting involved in greater trouble.

Leo is not afraid of trouble. He believes that he can solve most troubles with his ability. Even if he can't solve it, he can still get out. However, he is unwilling to cause trouble for no reason, especially this kind of trouble that should not be the responsibility of a small person like him.

Some trouble.

At this time, the door of the room reopened, and Baron de Maupassant walked in, and also brought several people who looked like train conductors. After seeing that the window was broken, they immediately took out a ready-made window to replace it and asked Baron de Maupassant.

He apologized to Sean, then exited the room, closed the door, and Baron Maupassant sat back on his bunk.

Although he only walked out for a short time, Leo found that the aura of Baron Maupassant had changed a lot, he had become more confident, and the worried look in his eyes had also reduced a lot.

"Eh!" Leo was not going to pay attention to Baron Maupassant at first, but he suddenly felt that there seemed to be a spiritual energy surrounding Baron Maupassant. This spiritual energy was so strong that Leo did not need to activate his spiritual vision or spirit.

The net can be clearly felt just by spiritual perception.

"Psychic device." Leo's eyes glanced at Baron Maupassant, and soon fell on a ring in his hand that looked like wood. There were a large number of mysterious words engraved on the surface of the ring.

Symbol, it is obvious that this ring is a psychic device.

Although Leo is not very clear about the function of this ring, the spiritual energy wrapped around Baron Maupassant reminds Leo of Sean's pendant and Wilson's spiritual energy shield. If there are no accidents, this

The ring should have two functions: defense against psychic attacks and defense against long-range physical attacks.

At first, Leo was a little surprised that Baron Maupassant had such a psychic device that could be used without a psyker, but when he thought about it carefully, he thought it was nothing. After all, people like Sean had such a psychic device.

It can be installed, let alone a branch of the French royal family with a profound background.

"I think we should cooperate, Mr. Dodd." Baron Maupassant suddenly spoke, breaking the silence in the carriage.

Leo said in a deep voice: "I don't think we have anything to work with, Your Excellency Baron."

"No, we can cooperate." Baron Maupassant smiled: "Aren't you going to the Continental Congress in Milia City to accuse Duke Devin of using imine gas? We can cooperate on this matter."

"Don't you think it's strange for you to say these words?" Leo glanced at the other person and said, "You are a baron of the French Empire, and now you actually told an enemy soldier to help him sue his country.

The Duke, and this Duke is now in charge of the frontline army to fight against the invasion of the enemy country. Do you know what a person like you is called in the Kingdom of England?"

Baron Maupassant was not irritated by Leo's deliberately sarcastic words. Instead, he calmly continued what he had said before and said to himself: "Your idea is good, but it will never succeed. Don't look at the fact that the Continental Congress often has some influence now."

The political situation of the country, and even the trial of political figures in some countries, but you have to know that those countries are all just small countries, and their land area is not even necessarily larger than Lanxi. But the Frankish Empire is the largest empire in the world, with the strongest empire in the world.

The Army and the Continental Congress would not dare to risk offending the French Empire by interrogating Duke Devin, so what you are doing has no effect at all."

Regarding Baron Maupassant's words, Leo just smiled slightly and did not look at Baron Maupassant again, nor did he intend to have any conversation with him.

It was the first time for Baron Maupassant to see such a difficult person to persuade, and he really didn't know how to start.

If he follows the normal persuasion methods, the other party will not give him this opportunity at all, and will not even pay attention to him. Let him continue talking here like a fool. I am afraid that he himself will not be able to bear this humiliation.

.

Seeing Leo's calm expression, Baron Maupassant couldn't help but have doubts in his heart, because Leo looked as if he was fully confident that he could successfully accuse Duke de Wen.

However, Baron Maupassant can be sure that even if it is the secret influence of the Kingdom of England, the accusation against Baron Devine will have no chance of success. At most, it will only damage Baron Devine's reputation.

For those hawks within the empire, Baron Devin's unscrupulous approach to victory is more in line with their wishes. They would be very happy to see such an ambitious and capable person become the master of the empire.

"Could it be..." When Baron Maupassant was puzzled about Leo's attitude, he suddenly thought of a possibility that he thought was the most impossible, because it seemed to him that doing so was stupid and crazy to the extreme. It was impossible for anyone to do this, but he didn't know why.

When he saw Leo who seemed calm and didn't care about the outcome of the accusation, he felt more and more that the most unlikely possibility was the purpose of Leo's trip.

Therefore, Baron Maupassant looked at the expression on Leo's face and asked tentatively: "Mr. Dodd, could it be that you were unwilling to continue to fight on the battlefield, so you went to Milia City to accuse Duke Devin of using imine?"

Poison gas, right?"

Regarding these tentative words, Leo had no extra expression, he just frowned slightly, and for Baron Maupassant, this frown was enough.

At this moment, Baron Maupassant was completely confused and didn't know what expression to show on his face.

He never thought that there would be someone like Leo. In order not to go to the battlefield, he would go to the Continental Congress to accuse the Duke of a country. It didn't look like something a normal person should do.

"Are you crazy?" In the end, Baron Maupassant couldn't help but feel a little crazy in his heart, and asked Leo: "Do you know that if you do this, you will completely offend Duke Devin? He will have thousands of ways.

The method will make you die silently. Even if he doesn't care about the arrogance of a little reptile like you, there will be countless people in this world who will sacrifice your head to him in order to please him. Isn't this more dangerous than going to the battlefield?

?”

Leo still ignored Baron Maupassant, as if he didn't exist.

Baron Maupassant suddenly laughed, sat down on the bunk very casually, leaned against the wall, looked at Leo and said: "Mr. Dodd, you have to know that it may be difficult to help you successfully accuse Duke Devin, but if you want to

It would be very easy for you to be sent back to the battlefield by the British government after your prosecution fails."

"Pa!" Leo closed the dictionary in his hand with force, sat up from the bed, stared at Baron Maupassant, looked at him coldly, and said nothing.

Although Leo did nothing, Baron Maupassant felt that the surrounding air seemed to have dropped to freezing point. Every time he breathed, an inexplicable chill was sucked into his body, giving him the illusion that he was now in a legend.

The dead place at the end of life.

An inexplicable fear made him involuntarily reach out and touch the wooden ring, as if only that ring could bring him a touch of warmth.

Leo did not use any psychic skills at this moment. He was just using his accessory brain system to imitate the Lord of Turbidity and Ethereality he saw in the twin illusions, imitating his breath and imitating his power. But now it seems that

The effect seems to be quite astonishing.

At this time, there was a very slight sound from the top of the carriage. Leo unfolded his mental network to understand the situation. The almost freezing coldness around him instantly dissipated, as if it had never existed. Only Baron Maupassant was still there.

I can still feel the coldness and fear remaining in my bones.

"Here comes your trouble!" Leo, who had released his mental net, looked up at the roof of the car, said in a deep voice, and then lay down on the bed again, continuing to read the dictionary with relish, paying no attention to this trouble.

Will it fall on you?

After hearing Leo's words, Baron Maupassant quickly took out a pair of mechanical glasses from his pocket and put them on. He then slightly adjusted the gears on the frame of the glasses and looked up to the top of the carriage, as if his sight could pass through the thick walls of the carriage.

It's like a layer of steel plate.

Baron Maupassant suddenly opened the car window, then took two steps back and took out a box-like object from under his clothes. Then he unfolded and folded the box a few times, and the box immediately turned into a very delicate mechanical crossbow.

.

Then he turned the dial with a scale on the trigger position on the side of the hand crossbow, stuck a box full of magazines filled with corresponding crossbow arrows on the hand crossbow, then raised it and aimed it at the car window, but he turned

He looked towards the top of the carriage, slightly adjusted the angle of the crossbow, moved it slowly and regularly, and continuously pulled the trigger.

I saw the arrow shot from the hand crossbow flying out of the car window, then turning upward and flying to the roof of the car. Then I heard screams coming from the roof of the car, and more than a dozen figures appeared one after another.

Falling from both sides of the car.

Then, Baron Maupassant suddenly turned around, opened the hatch, adjusted the angle of his hand crossbow and fired the crossbow arrow directly towards the door. The crossbow arrow also drew an arc in the air, passed through the door, and flew out to the side of the corridor outside.

Then I heard two screams and the sound of objects falling to the ground, and everything calmed down.

Baron Maupassant closed the door, took off his eyes, folded the crossbow into a palm-sized size, put it back in the pocket under his clothes, patted the non-existent dust on his body, and raised his head towards Leo lying on the bed, quite a bit.

Like a child waiting for praise.

Although he didn't want to admit it, the strength displayed by this feminine-looking Baron Maupassant did surprise Leo. A dozen well-trained killers were easily eliminated by him with a crossbow.

It is undeniable that both the exquisitely designed mechanical crossbow and the glasses that seem to be able to see through the steel plates of the carriage played a key role, but Baron Maupassant, who can use these two pieces of equipment so superbly, is obviously also very powerful.

And Leo also felt that this was not all of his strength. Just now he showed the extremely fast skill of drawing a gun, which shows that his shooting skills should be very good. In addition, there seemed to be daggers, swords and other weapons in his bag, which should be

Also has good melee combat capabilities.

If it were an ordinary person, it wouldn't be too surprising. After all, many people are forced to train themselves to death in order to master so many abilities.

However, a nobleman who had been pampered and pampered since he was a child was able to give up his luxurious life and develop such a skill. Leo had to admire him, and his original resentment due to the other party's coercion of his cooperation was alleviated a lot.

"I won't force you to make a decision now, but I'm sure you will come to me for cooperation." Baron Maupassant took out a golden business card from his pocket, threw it on Leo's bunk, and said, "This is my

If you know my address in Milia City, you can come find me."

After saying that, I saw him taking down the luggage from the luggage rack and carrying it on his body. Then he took out a hooded windbreaker from the closet next to him and put it on. He then stepped on the table and grabbed it.

At the edge of the car window, he jumped hard and got out. His body stretched out in the air, fell on the grass beside the car track, rolled a few times, stood up like a normal person, and then disappeared into the grass.

.

After Baron Maupassant's whereabouts were exposed, he was able to decisively choose to jump out of the car and leave instead of deliberately staying and dragging Leo into the water. This made Leo's dislike of this person weaken a bit, and he began to feel faintly in his heart.

Consider the pros and cons of working with him.

He picked up the golden business card on the bunk and looked at it. Although the business card had a gold texture, it was actually a kind of wood and had a fragrance attached to it, which was different from what French women are used to nowadays.

The rich perfume smells very pleasant, which shows that the wood used to make this card is extraordinary.
