Not long after the battle between Erica and the others in the Alchemist Academy ended, some news about that place had quickly spread to the ears of most of the nobles in the inner city.

Most people were somewhat fearful and panicked about the sudden monster attack over there, but Count Oskander was the only one who immediately cheered after learning the complete inside story of the incident.

Not long ago, Count Oskander was waiting in fear at home for Duke Michael's punishment, but there was no news after waiting and waiting. Later, Viscount Harvey quietly sent someone to send a message, and he finally understood that he was

Why has it become so unlucky here?

Viscount Harvey's message briefly clarified the secret relationship between Count Klein and Viscount Troyes. At the same time, it also very vaguely mentioned that the rumor that disrupted Count Oskander's plan was related to Count Klein, and also mentioned that

Naturally, he revealed some evidence that Count Klein had against him.

Count Oskander was naturally very angry when he got the news. After all, Count Oskander, who has been cunning and cunning all his life, was secretly plotted by a junior after he got old. If he had been able to use various tricks in his youth,

Earl Klein was completely crushed to death. But now this news is obviously a little late, because Earl Klein's plan has been achieved anyway, and the Duke has also turned the blame on himself, plus the very unlucky shop owner

After offending two more forces that he shouldn't provoke, Count Oskander decided that he had lost the chance to make a comeback. The only thing he could do was hide at home and linger on.

Just now, when Count Oskander was grieving at home, one of his subordinates at the city guard post sent another piece of incredible news to Count Oskander.

Miss Chris was kidnapped not long ago, but then successfully escaped from the robbers, and those monsters seemed to be sent by the robbers.

If he only heard these words, then Count Oskander would not feel very excited. He would just sigh how lucky Chris was, and at the same time feel sad for the robber who had the guts to kidnap Duke Michael's daughter. By the way,

He was also surprised as to why the robber had the ability to command monsters. But as the subordinate who reported the message spoke more, Count Oskander slowly figured out some of the details behind the kidnapping case.

Although the messenger did not know who was behind the scenes, the other party mentioned the location of Chris when she disappeared. In addition, Viscount Harvey's not long ago seemingly inexplicable information in many places, the cunning old fox Oscar

Count De connected these scattered clues in an instant.

The person who kidnapped Chris is definitely Darthniel Klein. Although Count Oskander still can't believe that this guy has the guts to do such a thing, various clues are now firmly tied to him.

On the ankle, so Count Klein is already speechless.

The warehouse area of ​​the Sydney Chamber of Commerce itself was built under the supervision of the Thrill Chamber of Commerce, and the secret passages located under certain specific warehouses were naturally built under the orders of Count Oskander, and even connected to some secret locations.

He also knows all the secret chambers in the complicated sewers. The second reason is that when the Seril Chamber of Commerce was first established, it was still a small business. For this reason, it naturally needed some special wealth accumulation channels, and smuggling

Tax evasion is naturally the most common method used by noble chambers of commerce, and these facilities are naturally designed to serve these matters.

However, as the wealth of the Thrier Chamber of Commerce gradually increased, some unscrupulous methods naturally needed to be abandoned decisively. For this reason, the Thrier Chamber of Commerce quickly got rid of these things smoothly, and the warehouse area was naturally cheap as soon as possible.

For sale. Later, the warehouse land that was not in a good location changed hands several times and fell into the hands of the emerging Shirley Chamber of Commerce. However, they have not yet discovered the secret passages hidden under the warehouse buildings. The same goes for those that have long been abandoned.

The unused secret facilities are not so secretive. If some people with ulterior motives later can easily discover the blessings left to them by the "ancestors", but no matter how they reuse it, it will be the same as Oskander.

The earl has no connection at all.

Obviously, through some fragmented clues, Count Oskander was keenly aware of some of Count Klein's small actions in recent years, whether it was secretly purchased facilities or some small means of commercial trade, or even

The combination of these clues that linked Chris and the monster chasing her to running out of a sewer somewhere made Count Oskander almost faint with excitement.

"Oh... dear little Klein, you really impress me." Count Oskander laughed excitedly and jumped up and down from time to time.

At this moment, Count Oskander felt as if he had become decades younger in an instant, because although Count Oskander, who had turned fifty a year earlier, no longer had any ambitions, he was still very useful for gloating over misfortunes, especially for betrayers.

Miserable strangers, this simply made him enjoy it more than any high-pitched opera.

Of course, it is no longer important as to why Klein is connected with the monster, because in his opinion, Klein will definitely be finished this time. Similarly, Count Oskander has roughly guessed why Chris is there.

Being kidnapped was nothing more than that she happened to see something she shouldn't have seen, so she was kidnapped by Klein's brutal men. Maybe those people didn't know Chris' identity at all, but it had already happened so long ago

There is absolutely no possibility of making amends.

Count Oskander was so excited that the butler asked for a banquet at home to celebrate, but then he felt that Klein's planned fate was not miserable enough. He even felt that Klein, an extreme guy, should be

I also know some news, and he is very likely to flee decisively.

Thinking of this, Count Oskander couldn't sit still. He once again quickly ordered the guards at home to go to Klein Mansion to inquire about the news. If there was any change, there was no need to come back to report it. He quickly told Duke Michael

Go. On the other side, Count Oskander also ran to his study and started writing furiously. He was planning to add insult to injury to Klein and reveal more dangerous black information about Klein to Duke Michael.

Of course, it is a good thing to prepare some black information about Klein, but the problem is that as one of the big bosses of the black market, Count Oskander or other big bosses always have some unclear black business connections. If you want to come up with it,

More and more detailed information that can make Klein even more miserable will inevitably involve other people or himself.

But so what? As long as a big revenge can be avenged, then losing some profits is nothing. And as long as you can help the Duke in this matter, although you may not let go of the past, at least a lenient and kind treatment is not bad.

The ending. What worries Count Oskander even more is that since he can think of this method, other big bosses should also think of it. After all, everyone is a sinner waiting for punishment at this moment.

The idiot Andal had taken the lead in surrendering to the Duke yesterday. After handing over all his property, he was staying at his home to await the verdict. However, it is said that this guy did not look sad at all. Instead, he was very lively, drinking and having fun at home.

This made Count Oskander very angry. Among the other big bosses, leaving aside Klein, the Viscount of Troyes is still the opponent's lackey, so he may not be able to bring order to the chaos, so the only one left is Harvey.

The Viscount is a very unpredictable guy.

Even though everyone is a big boss in the black market, Viscount Harvey rarely contacts others. Even when doing business in the black market, he is cautious and always operates gray businesses that are not very legal but not too prohibited.

In the past, Count Oskander would not have thought much about this, but now the situation is different. At least before receiving the letter from her, Count Oskander only thought that the other party was just a character.

She's just an aristocratic lady who is weird and has a tendency to be withdrawn.

Thinking of this, Count Oskander couldn't help but speed up, and he was very frightened and listed some things that he didn't dare to write just now. Because he felt that this Viscount Harvey, who seemed to have mysticism, revealed a conspiracy.

Maybe she was the secret sentinel inserted into this circle by Duke Michael, or it is not impossible that after experiencing these things, Viscount Harvey took the initiative to surrender to the Duke like Andal.

While Count Klein was writing his declaration of surrender with great fear, Count Klein, who had just successfully left the city with his family's belongings, breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging from the reaction of the city guard, it seemed that the Duke had not noticed him yet, but what followed after he relaxed his vigilance was an indescribable anger and unwillingness. Because after leaving, he would never be able to come back.

The huge wealth brought by many years of business operations has only taken away less than 1%. For Darthniel Klein, who has already linked his reputation with interests and has lived a prosperous life, this situation is tantamount to

A result that is more uncomfortable than death. If you make one wrong move, everything will be lost. His plan was obviously so perfect, but he let his subordinates reveal such a big trap, so Klein did not hesitate to call out all kinds of negative people.

The emotions turned into hatred and anger towards the Duke or towards the Principality of Michael.

However, while Klein kept uttering vicious curses and meaningless rages against the principality in the carriage, a vigorous hunting falcon rose into the sky from the treetops not far from the carriage team and headed towards Trikla City.

Fly away.

On the other side, at the end of the secret passage in the Chamber of Commerce's warehouse, Alberta was leading the Lion Guards armed with short soldiers to fight another group of monsters.

These monsters have different shapes and are twisted and deformed. They were originally defective products placed here by the alchemists as guards. Perhaps for ordinary people, after seeing these monsters, they will naturally either run away or be eaten.

But for the Lion Guards, it was a somewhat happy thing, because having enemies for so long proved that they had found the right direction, so Alberta and Norma not only faced the swarms of monsters, but also

Instead of retreating, he pushed forward to fight the monster.

After all, at this moment, Alberta and others still don’t know the news that Chris has been rescued, especially Norma. She even risked her life in order to find Miss Chris as soon as possible. Although Norma is a good magician.

She is a master, but her major is healing magic, so she is not very proficient in combat magic. But even so, she still takes the lead, holding a sword with one hand and casting spells with the other, and follows the Lion Guards in a deadly fight in the narrow and dark sewer.

, even if he was injured, he did not stop.

Such a noisy battle here naturally alarmed the alchemists. However, they did not know at this moment that their employer, Count Klein, had just absconded with the money. For this reason, they were still trying every means to delay the time and wait for their employer to pass other documents.

It is a pity that this group of alchemists who are not in harmony with the world do not know that a mere Count Klein cannot affect the Lion Guard who is Duke Michael's personal soldier. They also did not expect that the escaped girl turned out to be

The Duke's daughter.

After all, the alchemists didn't understand these things, so in order to defeat the invading Lion Guards, they directly released more experimental subjects to assist in the battle. They even stepped up their efforts to use the newly acquired materials while handling the battle.

with more monsters.

However, unlike the alchemists, the mercenaries had already noticed that something was wrong. The people who had been sent to deliver the letter to the earl had not yet returned. Furthermore, they also discovered the weapons and weapons of the invading enemy during the battle.

Different from others, this group of cunning mercenaries mostly put up a symbolic resistance during the battle and then secretly prepared to retreat.

But after a while, the battle in the sewers became almost one-sided. After all, although the Lion Guards were treated as the Duke's personal soldiers, they were also genuine warriors of the Chapter, not to mention that they couldn't be used in a place like this.

He is the best at long-handled weapons. For these "weak" monsters, even if they go up to fight with bare hands, they can fight one against ten.

At the same time, at the Alchemist Academy, Erica, Diana and Aurora had just changed into combat uniforms, and were led by Chris, who was still smelly even after changing clothes, to the place where she

Escape sewer entrance.

This time they planned to investigate the place where Chris said there was a group of strange alchemists making monsters, and if there was a chance, they would also clean up the whole thing, but the problem was that Chris didn't

They are willing to reveal the route to that location, unless they allow themselves to go there with them.

Although this request is a bit arbitrary, to be honest, Erica can't find any excuse to refuse the other party. She is an employer, so she can do whatever she says, and if Chris doesn't say it, Erica and the others won't be able to do it.

Accurately find the monster's lair in this complex underground environment. Not to mention that Diana cannot distinguish the monster through perception. For some reason, even the mark Hertogos does not appear on the magic map compiled by Savina.

System of light spots. Perhaps the search judgment on this map is the same as Diana's. For some reason, this type of humanoid flesh puppet is indeed not a product of Hertogos' system.

Anyway, due to this kind of reason, Erica had to agree to take Chris down, but only if she obeyed her orders, and Chris was not allowed to stay away from the temporary bodyguard Aurora.

. Another point is that Erica did not intend to let Chris carry the smoothbore flintlock that came from the Alchemist Academy, although this kind of product that was copied by the academy from the seizures of the previous war is quite good as an example.

, but this kind of weapon that still requires a flint firing structure is really not suitable for use in such a humid and small environment, and Erica can't trust the accuracy of this kind of thing, so she had to temporarily lend Chris a P226.

Pistol for self-defense.

In fact, if possible, Erica planned to wait for Liz and the others to come over and then go down together. However, after Chris's intervention, she had to let them take Thea to a certain sewer exit in the city to ambush, which seemed to mean that there.

It is most likely the place where the enemy escaped. Although this sounds far-fetched, Chris's speech is always more accurate than Erica, who is an outsider. And Abigail doesn't know how to respond.

She kept clamoring to follow her, but of course in the end, under Chris's instruction, she was asked to go to another place to cooperate with Liz and the others.

After everything was almost ready, Erica stood at the mouth of the collapsed sewer well and sniffed.

"Damn it, am I particularly destined to the sewers in your country?" Erica frowned and complained: "I have been to the sewers of different cities three times in less than half a year... I
Chapter completed!
