Release that Witch - Chapter 1421
[Chapter 1378 Rewards and Punishments]
Genius remembered the address of this site in a second: (Apex Chinese), the fastest update! No advertisements! Five days later, Farina and Joe were on the way to transport the goods, and received a notification from the liaison officer of the First Army.
Army Commander Iron Ax wants to see them both.
After going all the way to the Cage Mountain command post, Farina found more than one person in the meeting room—judging from the badges on their shoulders, these generals were all high-level figures of the First Army.
Joe swallowed nervously.
Farina looked calm and gave a military salute to everyone, “Farina, a member of the second car team of the First Transportation Brigade, came to report.”
Iron Ax and the others returned the gift with a smile, showing no airs of superiors at all.
This can’t help but surprise her a little.
The style of the Hermes church made her used to ignore the class gap and deal with things directly. She didn’t expect the upper level of the Graycastle military to be the same, or even worse.
She was frank just because she had a clear conscience, it didn’t mean that she had forgotten her “guilt status” as a member of the Church Judgment Army – even if she was slighted, it seemed nothing strange.
But everyone didn’t show any contempt, even the church couldn’t be so friendly to non-believers.
“I don’t know why you told me to come…” Farina’s gaze finally fell on Iron Axe.
“Do you still remember the Eternal Winter Knight you captured in Shenchi Bay a few days ago?” Iron Ax cut to the chase, “We have confirmed the identity of the other party and the crimes they committed.”
Farina suddenly realized something, “Are they important to the First Army?”
“Yes and no.” Iron Ax said slowly, “For the whole battle situation, they are not worth mentioning at all, but for those who gave their lives for this war, their capture means that the prisoners could not escape after all. Sanctions, so that the victims can finally be comforted.”
Then Farina heard a story about a bloody intelligence.
At the beginning, the news of the passers-by did not attract the attention of the higher authorities. After all, there were three or four escapees who tried to coax them through the pass like this every day.
They are either minor nobles or merchants with a lot of money, and the reason for their escape is nothing more than committing a crime or fearing that their property will be searched.
According to Lorgar’s report, the two Eternal Winter Knights obviously belonged to the former category, but because the taste of blood was complex and strong, the interrogators also investigated more carefully.
After some psychological games and pairs of confessions, the younger brother was the first to be overwhelmed, and confessed what the two committed. As early as a few months ago, the two brothers had been ordered by the lord to arrest the fugitives around the city, but because of their long Brother and the people of Graycastle had a gunshot feud, and finally held a grudge, turning capture into hunting.
If it was just an ordinary murder case, the treatment would be nothing more than the death penalty and mining for life, but the matter of “hunting the fugitives” made the higher authorities in charge of approval and filing pay attention.
In the end, the case was handed over to the intelligence service, and Hill Fox presided over the investigation.
However, there are two biggest blind spots in the case. One is that the First Army still does not know who the sender of the information is, and only knows that the deceased is a person with black money.
The second is that considering the randomness of the other party’s killing, even if it is really related to the blood-stained information, the two may not be able to recognize it.
In other words, even if Nightingale was present, the relationship between the two parties could not be determined through the authenticity of the language.
The only breakthrough seems to be the smell of blood mentioned by the wolf girl.
It’s a pity that Lorgar can only confirm the variety of blood types, but it is difficult to accurately identify the smell that is too old – after all, the sense of smell is just an additional benefit brought by her transformation ability. Although it is not affected by the god stone itself, it cannot surpass the physiological structure limit.
The final decision was made by the assistants sent by the Witch Union, Vanilla and Broken Sword.
With the help of Broken Sword’s ability enhancement, Vanilla found the same pheromone on Talos Murray’s leg armor as the secret letter’s bloodstains—although it was only a negligible point, it was already regarded as conclusive evidence.
If the two have never met, how could they be contaminated with the same pheromone?
Therefore, Brother Murray must be the murderer who killed the sender of the information.
“It turns out that there are people like this among the common people…” After hearing Iron Ax’s explanation, Joe couldn’t help but sigh with emotion.
“Currently, the Eternal Winter Kingdom is still occupied by demons, so we can’t promote it like other heroic cases, but history will never forget people like him.” Iron Ax sighed, “You are the ones who caught the murderer They are the main heroes, but they are not in the army, so apart from telling you the results of the investigation, which is the beginning and the end, the rest is to ask what kind of reward you hope to get.”
“But we didn’t put in much effort.” Farina said bluntly, “It was the lady witch who noticed something strange first. I just heard the sound of their fighting, and finally went over to make up a wrench.”
There was a good-natured laugh at this statement.
“Don’t worry, His Majesty Roland will never miss any meritorious person,” Iron Ax explained, “The Witch Union and the army are two departments, so someone else is responsible for Miss Lorgar’s reward. Theoretically speaking, your reward should also be given by someone else.” The administrative office issued it, but the front line of the battlefield can only deal with it in a simple manner, so we consulted on our behalf.”
“I understand…” Farina hesitated for a moment, “I used to be the Judgment Army of the church, and I was also deceived by hypocritical lies, but if possible, I hope to get a chance to make up for my mistakes.”
“Make up for mistakes?”
“Yes.” She took a deep breath, “Joining the First Army is the reward I want.”
The room suddenly became quiet, and everyone looked around, as if they were exchanging opinions.
After a long while, Iron Ax said, “The recruitment rules for the First Army are formulated by His Majesty, and I cannot agree to your request.”
“Is that so…” Farina’s slightly clenched fist suddenly loosened a bit.
“However,” the other party changed the subject, “I can write your achievements and requirements into the report and submit it to His Majesty for decision—if you insist on doing so.”
Farina raised her head, her eyes lit up, “Yes, please!”
She naturally knows that once she joins the army, all future actions will be more restricted, and the risk of facing the enemy will increase exponentially, but that is exactly the path she longs for—the more thorny the road is, the more thorny the road is, UU reading www.sonicmtl. com The more she can make up for the sins she has committed.
…
After Farina and Joe left, the other officers also left one after another. After a while, only Iron Ax and Edith were left in the meeting room.
Pearl of the Northland, who had been silent for a long time, let out a long breath, “So, the Hermes Church is really terrible…Since it has not been sentenced, there are no crimes or faults. I would rather bear the suffering myself in exchange for psychological peace. I am afraid that only believers in the Holy City have such a quirk.”
Iron Ax shrugged nonchalantly. He knew very early on that Edith was a shrewd self-interested person, and her occasional concessions were also for the greater good.
When interests coincided, she was an impeccable partner, but when interests were opposite, it was hard to predict what she would have in mind.
It is absolutely impossible for Farina’s decision to dedicate herself without compensation to Pearl of the Northland.
But he didn’t resent it.
Compared with those dull, arrogant or greedy egoists, the former can at least be able to distinguish their real goals, and will not do stupid things because of short-sightedness.
“Then… how do you think it’s better to deal with those two prisoners?” Iron Ax brought the topic back to the business.
His Majesty mentioned in his reply on this matter that “if it is confirmed that the case was committed by the Knight of Eternal Winter, he will have full authority to decide.” According to the past practice, the two of them have lost nearly a hundred lives, and basically there is only one way to go to the gallows. .
“If it’s just to be hanged, I don’t think His Majesty needs to give special orders.” Edith sneered, “And don’t you think it’s too cheap for them to just send them on their way?”
“Have you got an idea?”
“Since it can’t be used as promotional material, it’s better to give it to black money as a gift—I think they will treat these two people well after paying so much.”
