Chapter one hundred and eighty second basket

Chapter 182 Basket

"By the way, have you caught those two magicians from Shigros Island? In the afternoon

Were you responsible for that firefight in the East City neighborhood?" Claude finally couldn't help but asked Liquelet out of curiosity.

"I didn't catch them, they were killed!" Liquelet told Claude a hot news, but the hotter news was yet to come: "These two magicians are not from Higros Island, they are from the Kingdom of Hicks

The nobles went to Shigros Island to study. After becoming a magician, they traveled to the mainland in search of precious magic materials for Shigros Island. Because our kingdom has strict control over the magic materials produced, they came to

here……"

The Kingdom of Hicks, isn't it a powerful country in the northern part of the mainland? How can their nobles openly learn magic and go to Higros Island to study?

"Then how do you say they are magicians from Shigros Island?"

"Because these two fools went to study abroad and learned a lot about the evil magicians on Shigros Island. They always acted like they were superior and insulted us as black iron pariahs. After entering the kingdom, they had an affair with a tavern owner.

That's what Clash said, and he used magic to kill seven people in the tavern. When we got the news, we naturally thought it was the magician from Shigros Island who came over, and we immediately hunted him down."

Perhaps because these two noble magicians from the Kingdom of Hicks have been killed, Liquelite spoke with less scruples: "Now our headache is how to explain to the superiors. After all, they are nobles from the Kingdom of Hicks. If they

It would have been nice to just capture them, but we overestimated our capabilities and used destructive group spells, forcing us to shoot and kill them, and we also injured several people..."

"Severely injured? Was it really those five gangsters who discovered their whereabouts?" Claude wanted to know the details of what happened.

Likite nodded: "Those two fools were strutting all the way, and they didn't wake up until we were chasing them. They used magic to hide their whereabouts, sneaked into Baimu City, and hid in a connection point in the Dongcheng neighborhood.

, prepared to wait until the news subsided before taking action. The old one was fine, but the young one couldn't bear the loneliness, so he hooked up with a nearby prostitute, and would disguise himself and go to the prostitute's house to spend the night every night.

He didn't expect that the prostitute had always been related to the thin one among the five gangsters, and was about to set a trap for him to rob their money. However, the young man was not strict with his words and revealed his identity as a magician in front of the prostitute.

He also planned to use the prostitute's identity as a local to contact the miners and purchase the private goods they brought out of the mines privately.

Just because they are magicians, Slender Man's five gangsters have not dared to act rashly, and they are planning to get a drug that can deal with magicians first before taking action. However, it is said that the colorless and odorless drug is very precious and the price is low.

It was very tall, and the skinny guys couldn't afford it, so they decided to find an outsider to slaughter a fat sheep first, collect enough money, and then buy the drug. As a result, they were unlucky enough to find you, and then fell into our hands...

…”

Liquelite laughed: "Sometimes when I think about it, this thing is really amazing. You went to the store to buy white root powder and we caught our eye. We thought you were one of the two hidden magicians. And the thin man's five

A gangster wanted to raise money to buy a drug and rob a magician, but we found out that we had a misunderstanding, but those five gangsters knew where the two magicians were...

After finding the two magicians, our captain thought carefully and evacuated the surrounding residents first. However, we were discovered by the two magicians in the process. We surrounded them and shouted for them to surrender. As a result, the two of them first

Produced proof that they were nobles of the Hicks Kingdom, said that they were just traveling on the mainland and had not caused any harm to our kingdom, and asked us to give them the courtesy of nobles, and let the manager of Shiromu City go to talk to them.

Then they threatened that we must let them go, otherwise it would easily cause conflicts between the two kingdoms. Of course, we rejected their request and showed them the facts and evidence that they used magic to kill people in the tavern in our kingdom, and asked them to plead guilty.

And he was escorted to the royal capital for trial. Then the younger one started yelling, saying that killing a few black iron pariahs had nothing to do with it, and then started throwing spells around and started fighting with us.

Because they were hiding in the building, although we surrounded them, we couldn't threaten them with muskets, and we couldn't see anyone! No one could be their opponent with magic alone. And they were also very cunning. They didn't use doors and windows, but instead

Use magic to blow up the partition walls between the houses, move from one suite to that suite, and then run to the building next door. If our captain hadn't made arrangements a long time ago, they might have really escaped again.

"

Licklite shook his head with a wry smile: "They blew up two double-story buildings and a three-story building in total. They affected about fifty or sixty innocent people. They rescued them in time, and there was no one at the moment.

Death. Several of my companions were injured during the pursuit. In the end, the old man was shot to death by soldiers from the security battalion, and the young man also died under the random gunfire of our special service team. No one was caught alive.

From now on, there will be more talk with the Hicks Kingdom..."

"Are they the real nobles of the Kingdom of Hicks? They are not fake, right?" Claude asked.

"It's true. When we finally searched the items they carried, we found that their noble status was true. The evidence against them now is their experience of studying abroad on Shigros Island to become magicians and the magic items they carried with them. But this

It's hard to tell. After all, they are the real nobles of the Kingdom of Hicks, and the Kingdom must give them an explanation."

"Isn't it said that magic is banned across the entire continent? Why can the nobles of the Hicks Kingdom learn magic?"

Liklite laughed sarcastically: "Their kingdom is different from ours. They are located in the northern part of the mainland, close to Shigros Island. They have always colluded with the magicians on Shigros Island. The people there learn magic and even

This is the main reason why their kingdom has become the most powerful kingdom in the Farea continent with the support of the magicians of Shigros Island. Of course, all this is done secretly, and openly their kingdom has always claimed to ban magic.

, their main task is to prevent the magicians from Shigros Island from coming back.

Compared with the Kingdom of Hicks, our Kingdom of Ovilas can only be regarded as a small country. Unless we can unify the entire eastern region of the continent, then we can compete with the Kingdom of Hicks. But for our kingdom at present, the Kingdom of Hicks

It is indeed a giant beast that cannot be offended. The only good thing is that they are not adjacent to the border of our kingdom, and there are two countries in between.

These two magicians are nobles of the Kingdom of Hicks. Even if they commit murder in the tavern, for them, it is nothing more than paying for the crime. The Kingdom of Higgs has always given preferential treatment to nobles who commit crimes, and they can pay money to atone for their sins. And our kingdom

The laws are completely different. We treat everyone equally. Anyone who commits a life-threatening crime, whether a noble or a citizen, must be tried and punished.

Precisely because of the different concepts, the relationship between the Kingdom of Hicks and our kingdom has never been very close. It is said that fifty or sixty years ago, due to the dispute over the three-color scepter, the nobles of the Kingdom of Hicks were dissatisfied with the ascension of the late King Sterling IX to the throne.

He said a lot of bad things, believing that Sterling IX, who was born out of an illegitimate son, did not have the right to ascend the throne as king, and refused to recognize the legitimacy and legitimacy of his throne, so that the two kingdoms were at odds with each other for nearly ten years..."

These are indeed kingdom secrets that Claude has never heard of before, but he doesn't understand the reason for Liquelet's frown: "So the Hicks Kingdom and our kingdom have never been very good at dealing with each other, and the relationship between the two countries is not good.

So you are worried that after killing these two magicians who are nobles of the Hicks Kingdom, they will be criticized and accused by the Hicks Kingdom and cause trouble for our kingdom?

But what does this have to do with your special department? You are just doing your duty. Anyway, it is not your special department that will deal with the Hicks Kingdom in the future. And you also said that their kingdom and our kingdom are not bordering each other, and there are two

The kingdom can only make verbal noises at most. Even if it wants to have a war, it must first see whether the two countries in the middle will let their troops pass, so what do you have to worry about? "

Liquelet looked at Claude with disdain: "You come from a small place, so of course you don't know the news that is circulating in the streets and alleys of the royal capital. You know that our King sent a mission to the Kingdom of Hicks in the first half of this year

What about the two waves of envoys? The purpose is to stabilize the Kingdom of Hicks, because its relationship with the Kingdom of Nasseri is much closer and friendly than with our kingdom!

Although the borders are not bordering, and it is impossible to send troops to conquer our kingdom, the Kingdom of Hicks can provide a large amount of funds and military supplies to assist the Kingdom of Nasseri. You know this will create a gap between our kingdom and the Eastern Anti-Austrian Five-Nation Alliance.

Did the disputes have much impact? Two waves of envoys were dispatched less than three months apart. The purpose was to keep them neutral and not interfere in our eastern region. Do you understand now?"

"I understand." Claude admitted his mistake sincerely: "This is indeed a trick you made. It has caused a lot of trouble for our kingdom. I don't know if it can appease the Hicks Kingdom. In case they and our kingdom

It's all your fault if you fall out. But it's none of my business, I'll just watch you being punished..."

"You..." Liquelite almost spurted a mouthful of blood into Claude's face. This kid's words were so irritating that it was like stabbing him in the heart. He originally wanted to find someone to talk to because he was depressed, but it turned out to be even worse.

It's suffocating. I wanted to argue with him, but after thinking about it, I felt it was pointless. What this guy said was not unreasonable. It really had nothing to do with him. Talking to him about these important national affairs was just asking for trouble.

For a moment, Liquelite had nothing to say, so he stood up and said only: "Then I'm leaving." Then he left dejectedly.

Watching Liquelet leave, Claude ordered another glass of rye and tasted it slowly. Even though Liquelet had said so much just now, there was no hint of the topic that really concerned Claude.

. He only told Claude that the two noble magicians from the Hicks Kingdom had been killed, but the level of the two magicians, what mission they really came to Whitewood City to perform, and what powerful magic they used

The group damage spells were not mentioned, and they even mentioned the magic items they carried with them.

As for the relationship between the Kingdom of Hicks and the Kingdom of Overas, Claude didn't care. Anyway, these national affairs have no say in the decision-making process. What kind of disputes will happen between the two kingdoms over the death of the two noble magicians?

Not under Claude's consideration, because he is just a soldier about to join the army, and these have nothing to do with him.

On the contrary, the news that Liquelet said that Sterling X sent two groups of envoys to the Kingdom of Hicks in the first half of this year made Claude confirm the fact that there will definitely be a large-scale conflict with the anti-Austrian Five-Nation Alliance next year.

war. Otherwise, the kingdom would not have sent two waves of envoys to the Kingdom of Hicks so early in order to neutralize it.

Paralysis, it is really unlucky to be a soldier now. It seems that this battlefield is unavoidable. Claude cursed bitterly in his heart.

Two days later, Claude arrived at the Fukebi Hill Military Camp outside Conigada in Cafilezte County.
