Interception

Gede Town, the house of manager Caleb.

At this time, there were many valuable horses staying outside. Judging from the scarred armor and fierce eyes of the horses, these were a group of valuable war horses that had ridden Battlefield.

At this time, two knights wearing full armor were guarding the horses, with some mottled Dark Red marks on their armors.

They all have a wolf head pattern on their shoulders, which all indicates that they are members of a knightly order.

Only members of the Knights can wear this pattern on their shoulders.

Inside the house, a conversation was going on.

Caleb, the manager sent by the Alliance to manage Gede Town, looked at the heads on the table and was very happy.

He was so happy that he almost jumped up, but outsiders were still watching, so he could only suppress his excitement.

"You have done a good job. According to the regulations, I will give you what I promised."

The corners of his mouth were raised and he was smiling, as if he had died an enemy who killed his father.

Opposite him was Connor, the leader of Blood Wolf Knights. His face was expressionless as he watched this man's movements.

If this was not the Alliance, and if the other party was not the manager assigned by the Alliance, he would have gone up and tortured the other party directly, and there would be no time for such a 'transaction'.

But he must not do this. The manager of the Alliance is also the face of the Alliance. Killing him hastily and his traces were leaked on Gede Town will definitely attract the powerful Investigator to investigate the matter.

When the time comes, his family will never be able to protect him, because his family's opponents will also take advantage of this to attack him.

He looked at Caleb's crazy face and knew why the other party wanted to kill Zeno.

Others may not understand, but he knows the other person very well. He already knows about this border manager from the information sent by his family.

The other party has been regretting his decision to become a manager, but due to his mediocre talent, he has never passed the assessments of various societies and become a real researcher.

In addition, I have become a manager and cannot participate in the Investigator assessment of the Alliance, so this will be the case for the rest of my life.

His motive for wanting to kill Zeno is nothing more than jealousy. He is jealous that the other party can enter a University Association, which is Skeleton Society!

This kind of jealousy is nothing to begin with. He himself has a treacherous heart but not the courage to do it himself.

But at this time, an opportunity came, an opportunity that almost made Blood Wolf Knights take action.

You know, in normal times, even Connor himself would not easily accept such a task of killing a mage, let alone a commission from a mage who wants to kill another mage.

But this time he happened to be hired by Duke Theodore, and he had to abide by the contract.

It would be a breach of contract if someone else broke the contract. It is not a good thing to offend the Alliance for a contract.

But for him, he is not afraid of those mages. He knows better than anyone else that without a good mentor, the Alliance will only pay attention to cases that kill mages under extreme circumstances.

What's more, he has a family to help cover it up, so he is naturally not afraid.

Connor knocked on the table and urged:

"Hurry up, if the other party walks out Antir Region, it will be difficult for us to catch the other party."

Caleb suppressed his smile and took out two things from the drawer behind him, a few pieces of paper and a small box.

Connor took over. Above is the mage's customs clearance record and some registration information.

"Forge School, what is this School?"

Under the education of his family, he naturally knew the names of many School, but this was the first time he saw this School.

But then he also ignored this matter. What School is not important, what is important is what mentor he has.

The column for Fran's mentor was blacked out, which made Connor frown.

But then, when he saw the destination of Fran, he relaxed again.

"A mage who is going to Northern Lands Society, what good mentor can he have?"

He knows that those truly talented mages will not even come to Antir Region, but will go to the more developed Floating City for further training.

This is good news for Connor. The other party is not a person with a big background.

But this is also bad news. The other party is going to Northern Lands Society.

At this time Caleb opened the box, and inside was a Tracking Bug.

"It's just a bug that has recorded the smell of Territory Token. As long as you follow the direction pointed by this bug..."

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Connor, who said angrily:

"So you just made a Tracking Bug method... Damn it, why did you do this? The tracking spell doesn't work? You just want the lowest level Tracking Bug."

Tracking Bug is indeed easy to use and can find things related to the target, but this usefulness also has limitations.

It's okay in the city, the precise direction positioning of Tracking Bug is very useful, but it doesn't work in long-distance pursuits.

Tracking Bug can only track targets within a hundred meters under normal circumstances. If you want to track a longer distance, you must feed it with strengthening substances.

But even so, Tracking Bug can only point in one direction.

Didn't you use the tracking spell? Directly locate the target's location, and we'll kill people and grab things directly.

But Caleb was not false at all and responded:

"I can't afford a tracking spell with concealment function. Besides, there is no Artisan that can be engraved in Gede City."

It can be said that he only thought of using this method to kill Zeno on a temporary basis. Now that Zeno is dead, he naturally doesn't care too much.

Furthermore, although Fran joined Northern Lands Society, which made him a little jealous, he didn't know what kind of society Northern Lands Society was. He just thought it was also a pheasant society, so Fran was just incidental.

He originally wanted to give this token directly to Zeno, and he even proposed using a knight's duel to decide the outcome.

In fact, he just thinks that Zeno is a man after all, and he should be better than those women in terms of physical fitness, so he only needs to fake the fight and give Zeno victory.

But the result was like this. That Fran could actually win the duel. He was slightly jealous. How could your swordsmanship be so powerful?

So with the mentality of killing two of them, he directly gave the thing to Fran.

"Damn it, let's go quickly!"

It can be said that Caleb's operation cheated Connor. He became anxious when he thought that Fran was running towards Northern Lands Society.

That was also the Alliance's territory. There was no way he could kill a mage in Northern Lands Society's place. It wasn't that he didn't want to, but that he couldn't.

He put the special feed into the bottle with Tracking Bug in it. After Tracking Bug ate it, he hit it hard towards the north.

Connor sighed. He didn't know where Fran was, but for the sake of safety, he could only block the road he had to pass.

He thought of Northern Territory Pass, which was the nearest passage between Antir and Northern Territory. As long as he hurried, he could block each other and complete his contract with Duke Theodore.

So he hurriedly called to his men and left in a hurry.

While Tracking Bug fell into a short sleep, Black Horse carried Fran into Gede Town from the opposite direction and walked towards the Adventurers Guild.
