Since it was a confinement, the conditions were naturally not good. It was already fortunate that she was not abused.
Perhaps because of this mentality, ever since she was locked up, the half-elf girl Kaliana didn't show much fear on her face.
She even had the mood to clean up this confinement place.
"Miss Kariana, you're very good at cleaning …" Daphne suddenly said.
It was too quiet here, and the two of them were not in a good situation … At this time, they urgently needed some topics to ease the tension.
"I'm a waiter in the hotel's restaurant after all." Kariana shrugged. Although she was a little annoyed, she tugged at her clothes and said, "I should have asked them for some clean clothes."
The two of them were still wearing the same clothes that were stained with blood. Of course, it was not comfortable to wear them all the time.
"Miss Kariana, do you know who this group of people is?" Daphne asked softly, "And that person called [Ye Yan] … You seem to know this guy?"
Kariana sat cross-legged on the cleaned floor. "I know this guy, but I don't know him. He's just like my idol, [Clown]. "
"[Clown]?" Daphne was stunned. Then, she reacted and said in surprise, "You mean … this person is also a criminal from the Holy Land on the wanted list?"
"In the past year, he just climbed to the tenth place on the wanted list." Kariana thought for a moment and said, "But actually, it's not just him. It's his entire group. To be precise, it should be the [Drowning Dog Brigade]. "
"[Drowning Dog] …" Daphne opened her mouth. "This name?"
Kariana said calmly, "It's like a dog that fell into the water and is struggling to survive. In the whole world, except for the real [pure-blood nobles], we are all like drowning dogs. "
Daphne wanted to say something but stopped.
Kariana comforted her, "Don't worry. Although the Holy Land has put a bounty on the [Drowning Dog Brigade], they will only do things that target the nobles. They will never do anything to civilians … At least, I haven't heard of them hurting civilians."
"Miss Carina, you seem to be …" Daphne looked at her in confusion. "Very clear about the Holy Land."
The half-elf girl smiled casually and said, "I'm a waitress in a restaurant. The customers who come and go from north to south always bring me a lot of gossip."
That was true. Restaurants, pubs, and the like were indeed easy to earn income from intelligence … But in that kind of remote seaside town, would there really be so many customers coming from the north and the south?
"I wonder where the commander is right now," Daphne muttered as she hugged her knees and sat in a corner.
At this moment, the iron door of the detention room was slowly pushed open.
[Ye Yan] and the little girl with her eyes closed walked in one after another. [Ye Yan] was holding some food in his hands, while the little girl was holding some clothes.
The cross-shaped scar on his face ruined his originally handsome appearance. At this moment, he smiled faintly and said, "Sorry, sorry. The conditions are limited, so I can only wrong you."
Daphne subconsciously looked at Kariana. She instinctively let Kariana take the lead.
The half-elf girl stood up and stretched. "You've helped a lot. I was worried about the clothes just now! As expected of the leader of the [Drowning Dog Brigade]. Just like the rumors say, you're a good friend of the poor! "
"Being a good friend of the poor is also a poor thing." [Ye Yan] smiled casually and sat on the ground. "You're quite skilled. Are you interested in joining us?"
The half-elf girl was stunned. "So careless?"
"Because you'll be fine if I tell you tomorrow." [Ye Yan] smiled.
"Tomorrow?" Kariana was slightly confused. She subconsciously looked at the little girl with her eyes closed beside him.
At this moment, [Ye Yan] directly waved his hand and gently pressed it on the little girl's head. "Yes, tomorrow, our little princess, the most important treasure."
The little girl was actually quite delicate, like a porcelain doll. She even had very obvious long silver-gray hair … But the ends of her hair were black, as if it meant that she was not pure.
Kariana did not intend to explore more for the time being. Instead, she considered the current situation. "She said there's no problem? Isn't that still careless? "
"Tomorrow's sensing ability is very strong. Her prediction of danger has allowed us to successfully avoid countless dangers." [Ye Yan] directly said, "She said that your arrival will allow us to have a turning point in our fate, but she doesn't know if it's good or bad. I'm a gambler, so I want to see if this turning point is good or bad. "
Kariana was silent.
[Ye Yan] was not surprised. He said casually, "Don't be in a hurry to answer me. I'll give you time to think carefully."
"What if I don't agree?" Kariana suddenly asked.
[Ye Yan] just smiled casually and did not answer. Before he left, he said again, "Think carefully."
Kariana nodded without thinking. "I agree … But I have a request. When I feel that it's appropriate, I want to leave. You can't stop me."
"Three times." [Ye Yan], however, raised three fingers and said indifferently, "Even if you want to leave, you have to complete at least three official missions in our group. We're quite poor. We can't let you get food for free. "
"I haven't even said that I want to be paid," Kariana muttered and nodded reluctantly.
The two high-fived.
After that, [Ye Yan] suddenly said, "Take a good rest in the next few days. Who knows, we might have our first official mission soon. You're very skilled and basically have no problems … But your companion is a little too strong. It seems that she needs to train well in the next few days. "
Instantly, [Ye Yan] and Kariana looked at Daphne at the same time.
"Eh? Me? "Daphne pointed at herself, not knowing what to do." I … I want it too? "
Training?
What training?
He only knows how to train his hand speed?
…
Daphne and Kariana were soon released from the confinement room. Then, they were led away by a man who said that they were going to undergo a test.
At this moment, the little girl Tomorrow suddenly tugged at [Ye Yan]'s sleeve and asked in confusion, "Why Kariana? The other one is clearly … the turning point. "
"Just think of it as …" [Ye Yan] chuckled and rubbed Tomorrow's little head dotingly. "The cunning of adults."
"Oh."
[Ye Yan] said again, "Can you sense … the location of the prince who was kidnapped?"
Tomorrow shook her head and whispered, "No."
[Ye Yan] said thoughtfully, "That Mr. Strange Thief is really amazing. It took our group such a long time to get to the tenth place on the bounty list. Those in front of us are basically all large organizations … Only this Mr. Strange Thief single-handedly sits firmly on the throne of first place. He's simply inhuman! "
…
…
On the night of Princess Angelique's birthday banquet, His Highness Cicero was kidnapped by the Strange Thief [Clown] who had disappeared for several years. Even if the government tried their best to block the news, they still couldn't resist the ultimate mystery of gossip.
— [I'll tell you, but you must not tell anyone that I told you!]
— [I definitely won't!]
The Holy Land was searching for traces of the Strange Thief [Clown], and it was a thorough search.
The Purge Knights coming and going on the streets of the Holy Land were unprecedentedly dense … Most of the businesses had closed their doors, and the residents were grounded.
Not only that, but the periphery of the Holy Land was also blocked by a large number of Purge Knights, and there were hundreds of airships patrolling in the sky.
On the streets of West God Street in the Holy Land, under this bleak atmosphere, only one breakfast shop was still open for business — a business for two people.
It was no longer normal breakfast time, but the owner of the breakfast shop was walking out with food in his hands at this time, trembling in fear as he delivered it to the only two customers.
He didn't know who one of them was, but the owner of the breakfast shop knew the other one — the Grand Commander of the Royal Knights, the kind of big shot who could even crush a [Noble] at will!
"Just put the things here, you may leave," the Grand Commander of the Royal Knights ordered indifferently.
The breakfast shop owner nodded repeatedly and quickly ran into the inner hall, not daring to eavesdrop.
"Lord Fuxi, it's been almost twelve hours since the prince was kidnapped," the Grand Commander of the Royal Knights said hesitantly, "It seems that there's still no news."
Ever since this Lord Royal General handed the command of the operation to Bismarck, this Grand Commander's grasp of the situation was not as instantaneous as before.
However, this Lord Royal General would always say, "Don't worry, don't worry, give Bismarck more confidence, or use Bismarck as a scapegoat if it really didn't work out, since Bismarck was going to be sent to the Nirvana Ocean anyway …"
The Grand Commander of the Nirvana Ocean knew that place wasn't a place where humans could stay — it was the final battlefield of the Mythological War, and the souls of countless mythological creatures who died tragically wandered there. If a person were to barge in casually, they would be gone in a few breaths of time.
"You guys, go in and search!"
Suddenly, a heavy voice came from outside, and then several Purge Knights quickly walked in, followed by a majestic Grand Commander of the Purge Knights.
Seeing this, the Grand Commander of the Royal Knights snorted coldly and directly slammed his palm on the table, saying with slight anger, "Who let you in!"
The Purge Knights who had just walked in quickly were stunned … When they saw clearly who was sitting in the hall, their legs almost turned to jelly!
The Grand Commander of the Purge Knights hurriedly walked forward, "My Lord! This subordinate didn't know that my Lord was here! Please forgive me, my Lord! "
The Grand Commander snorted coldly, "You don't know? The search has just begun, how can you not know? "
The Grand Commander of the Purge Knights hurriedly said in fear and trepidation, "This subordinate deserves to die … The search is too strict, Commander Bismarck also ordered us to search back and forth, so …"
"What's your name?" Fuxi Royal General suddenly signaled the Grand Commander of the Royal Knights to be quiet and looked at the new Grand Commander of the Purge Knights.
"You are?" The Grand Commander of the Purge Knights looked up apprehensively and asked doubtfully.
"This is one of the Seven Royal Generals, the Royal General of Heaven, Lord Fuxi!" The Grand Commander of the Royal Knights said in a deep voice, "How did you become the Grand Commander of the Purge Knights? You don't even recognize this!"
"Greetings, Royal General Fuxi!" The Grand Commander of the Purge Knights was shocked and broke out in cold sweat. "This subordinate is the new Grand Commander of the Purge Knights, Balam. This is my first time here … I, I really didn't know that you are …"
"Newly transferred from the local area?" The Grand Commander of the Royal Knights frowned, but his expression eased a little.
It was understandable that someone who was promoted from the local area didn't recognize him.
However, Fuxi Royal General smiled and said, "It's fine if you don't recognize me when you're new here. It's just like how I can't call out all of your names. Anyway, it's fine as long as you didn't do it on purpose. Don't you think so, Grand Commander Balam? "
"The Grand Commander is right …" Grand Commander Balam nodded and then waved his hand, "Withdraw!"
He continued, "Then, my two lords, I will continue searching elsewhere. I won't disturb the two of you!"
The Grand Commander of the Royal Knights waved his hand impatiently.
"Wait." Fuxi Royal General said calmly, "We've been searching for so long, a little more time won't make a difference … Everyone is tired. Let them come in, eat something, and rest. Only by recuperating can we do better work. "
"This …" Grand Commander Balam looked at the Grand Commander hesitantly.
The Grand Commander said helplessly, "Didn't you hear the Grand Commander's words? Come back and sit down … The owner inside, prepare more food in the kitchen!"
…
Although the Grand Commander was doing them a favor, these low-level Purge Knights didn't dare to get close to him.
They could only lean against the edge of the cafeteria and sit down. Even when the owner of the breakfast shop brought them food and tea, they only dared to take small bites silently.
Commander Balam was dragged to the same table by Lord Wang, and they casually chatted about some work-related matters.
Grand Commander Balam's answers sounded decent … Although he was promoted from the local area, after chatting for a while, the Grand Commander of the Royal Knights found Balam more pleasing to the eye.
"What do you do-!"
Just as the conversation at the table seemed to be going on merrily, a cold voice suddenly sounded. Several Purge Knights stood up and placed their hands on their weapons.
At this moment, a black-haired, black-eyed young man stood in front of the door of the breakfast shop … His clothes didn't look like the style of the Holy Land. It was very suspicious!
"Excuse me, are you not doing business here?"
The young man in front of the door looked around casually and asked politely.
"Not doing business here! Not doing business here!" The owner of the breakfast shop hurriedly ran out and said in horror, "I'm sorry. We don't do business with outsiders today. Please leave now!"
"That's a pity." The young man nodded. "I can only find out that this shop is open."
"You'd better leave now, young man!" The owner of the breakfast shop hurriedly said in a low voice, "Don't cause trouble for yourself."
The young man nodded and was about to leave.
"Let him in." The Fuxi Royal General's voice came from inside. "He's here to do business."
