The 461st chapter arrest (2)
Today's Heidra Fort is quite as charming as Tulum Port after the mid-autumn murder.
On the streets, soldiers wearing iron-gray uniforms; at the intersection, sandbags were built into barricades; in the air, huge war airships were hovering back and forth; on the tops of buildings, the light columns emitted by giant spotlights swept around.
Qiao rode Xiaobai and rushed out of the southern gate of Hydra Palace surrounded by a large group of knights.
A Knight of the Hundreds of the Hundreds, a Knight of the Royal Knight of the Thousands of the Hundreds, everyone was tightened and the savages were running wildly.
Behind the brigade are thirty-six fully enclosed eight-wheel load carriages with weighted and large-scale models.
Each carriage has twelve large body horses pulling, and the pure metal wheels rub violently against the ground, making dull sounds, constantly splashing sparks.
Thirty-six ancient demon puppets curled up and lay on the heavy carriage. Under the pull of the horse, the carriage galloped and barely followed the speed of the large group of people led by Qiao.
Two royal knights ran in the front, holding iron-gray cavalry rifles, with triangular Hydra shield-patterned flags hanging on them. They shouted from time to time, and along the barricades, soldiers on the streets saw two shield-patterned flags, made way and stood attentively to the flags.
The large group of people ran quickly along the street to the south.
Along the way, in addition to the guards and patrol soldiers, there were also large groups of clergy in golden, silver and white robes. They led a large group of military and police, patrolling around like hunting dogs, breaking in from time to time, causing a lot of movement.
On the war airship in the air, there were even wisps of silver divine light falling.
The nuns of St. Mayan Cathedral boarded the airship and were using divine magic to purify the entire city.
On the roadside, there were often groups of city foxes, clubs, and Potsai people tied into strings of ropes, escorted by soldiers, walking out of the city with dejected expression.
These are all a group of unlucky guys who took the opportunity to make trouble and rob... What awaits them is the severe punishment after the harsh torture and interrogation. This time, the senior officials of the empire were angry. Even if they were lucky to be sent to the island on the ice sea in the north to mine.
Among these people, some of them popped up and made trouble at the first time.
They are likely to be involved with the master messenger behind the scenes... If they are really tortured and related to this chaos, what awaits them may be to implicate the nine tribes, and the whole family is neatly shot or exiled.
Maybe they will all be sent to the stake by the church.
After all, there is a heresy involved in the Corrosion Spirit!
Qiao Ce rode wildly. After running over a dozen street intersections, Ya took a group of family guards to chase him, bringing news about Hesen, Tifa and Weima.
As the trouble arose, Hessen found Tifa and Weima.
In the chaos, Hessen and his group successfully retreated to the Apophis Palace. Except for Vima's little fright, it was fine. Even Tifa took his family guards to capture a group of Potous people who were robbing in the chaos near the Apophis Palace.
After receiving news from his family, Joe immediately felt relieved.
Then, another infamous fire broke out in his heart - Weima was frightened... Very well, he made enemies with the messenger behind the scenes.
"Dear Fierce Red, maybe, you need a little bit of knowledge to suit the situation?" Laplacie's sharp voice rang in his mind. He clicked his pipe and said in a slight voice: "I happen to have a lot of knowledge about tracking magic circles that are cheap and affordable..."
Qiao grinned, revealing two rows of big teeth, and shook her head gently: "Wait until I complete the task."
He subconsciously licked his lips, and his heartbeat increased inexplicably a lot - Mia and Mike robbed such a huge amount of wealth. If Qiao could solve this case and take back the wealth... By the way, this bonus cannot be reduced, right?
There are so many countries and so many big names in the Medlands continent, so everyone will not be stingy, right?
even……
Qiao thought that if he could solve this case as quickly as possible and seize the envoy behind the scenes, Hessen's title should be mentioned slightly at the court banquet at the New Year celebration?
What Salian promised now is the Marquis!
Duke of Hesse?
It seems that this title is not bad!
The cold wind blew from behind, causing Qiao's cloak to shake. Snowflakes flew down again in the sky, and the bright light columns above the tall buildings tore open the air. The snowflakes passed through the light columns, which inexplicably added a bit of fantasy and blurry charm to Fort Hydra.
In the southeast corner of Fort Heidra, a medium-sized marina.
It was already night, but the dock was still quite lively.
This place is more than ten miles away from Heidra Fort. During the day, the turmoil in Heidra Fort did not affect it.
As mentioned before, because of unknown reasons, Lan Yin River will not be frozen even in the coldest winter.
The river water is still vast, and the water transportation business of Lanyin River is still very prosperous in winter. The sailors who rely on the dock to eat, and the workers do not have the so-called winter break.
On the contrary, because of the cold, major cities along the river need to transport a large amount of grain, coal, wood and other materials through water. The sailors and workers have a much heavier job, and because the cold has brought them unchanged, their salaries are much higher than those in other months.
Those who hang out on the dock are all a group of rude and unwritten and rough people.

As the salary increased, these guys naturally squandered their money. The business of pubs, casinos, prostitutes and other cash sales nests near the docks also increased by more than double compared to other months.
At the edge of the dock, close to the river, an inn with a not-so-high level is brightly lit and crowded.
The dressed orioles appeared in the inn, and there were men and women's screams, laughter and scolding.
The taverns that are equipped with inns are even more lively and noisy.
Along the long wooden tables, the rough-dressed men waved their huge wine glasses, shouted loudly, laughed, or sang unknown songs in strange tone.
On a wooden table in the middle of the tavern, more than a dozen hot-bodied dancers were dancing wildly. Whenever they waved their huge skirts and kicked their long thighs, there were a burst of ghosts and howlings in the tavern. Rude men stood up one after another, killed the wine in the cup, and then pounded the wooden table with their glasses.
After passing through the crowded and noisy tavern, pushing open a wooden door made of old boat boards, the second entry in the tavern was also very lively.
There were more than a dozen large tables here, and groups of men with golden marks and silver Finney in their arms were competing for luck, squandering money, and excreting too much energy in their bodies.
The crown prince of the Derren Empire, Prince Heidra Fort, and Ferdinand von Heidra Fort, who possessed several noble titles, were sitting at a wooden table, grinning at the three cards in his hand.
His hair was scattered on his head, and his face was covered with a layer of oil that he would have had not washed his face for several days.
He was wearing a wrinkled lapel dress inside, but a dirty velvet nightgown with balls on the outside... At first glance, he was like a despicable pawnshop owner who secretly opened the door and specialized in collecting robbers from small thieves.
The two of them were over forty years old and their appearance was merely considered to be awesome. They painted exaggerated eyeshadows and their mouths were as if they had just drunk chicken blood, sitting next to Ferdinand, screaming with excitement.
"I will definitely win this game...haha...I will definitely win...benevolent Muteste, oh, I love you so much... raise, I want to raise..."
Ferdinand's old face was twisted, and he screamed at the top of his lungs, reaching out to snatch it hard in his pocket of his big nightgown.
After hesitating for a moment, Ferdinand took out two golden marks and slapped them in front of him.
"Two Jinmakes...you damn miscellaneous... raise if you have a genitals, haha, raise if you have a genitals!"
Ferdinand roared wildly and screamed in excitement.
A drop of sweat oozed out from his shiny nose, slowly, getting bigger little by little, and almost hung on his nose. The shiny sweat reflected the light, making him look quite funny.
Among the group of men sitting around the wooden table, more than half of them were a little hesitant. The two golden marks were a considerable amount of money for them.
There were also a few men whose eyes were red from gambling roaring, and without hesitation, took out the last little money in their pockets and slapped them heavily on the wooden table.
Standing by the table, holding a handful of cards in his hand, the dealer was expressionless and gave a round of cards to the table...
A little while later, Ferdinand was furious and threw the cards in his hand on the ground, jumped up and stepped on them several times.
He loudly greeted the dealer who issued the card in the most dirty and slutty words, and pulled the two women angrily and walked towards the small door in a corner of the casino.
The two women swayed their waists with a smile, hugged Ferdinand's arm tightly, and followed him into the small door.
A quarter of an hour later, the small door opened again, and Ferdinand ran out of the door in a very embarrassing manner. Two women in disarray followed him, waving their sharp claws and scratching his head hard.
"Damn old bastard... Give money, give money..."
"You go and ask, can I, Lilia, play for nothing?"
"Come here, come here, there is an old bastard who pretends to be rich and plays with - women - no money behind the scenes!"
"Catch him, grab him...beat him, hit him!"
A group of rough men who had been betting in the dark and had already forgotten themselves were scolding each other. Several of them lost all their money. The righteous sailors jumped up and rushed towards Ferdinand with their fists.
Several Hydra Secret Guards, who were also wearing crude clothes and standing in the corner, had a gloomy face, with a look of worse than death, and a cold air all over their bodies, quickly passing through the crowd and blocking Ferdinand.
The sailors waved their fists and hit the faces of these Hydra Secret Guards.
The Hydra Secret Guards raised their hands and embarrassed on the fists of these sailors... One by one, the terrifying existences of the extraordinary sixth level were beaten to the point of being embarrassed by these sailors who had not even opened up the most basic sea of power.
"Ha, brothers, you cover up... I, I'll retreat first!" Ferdinand quickly pinched the faces of the two women chasing him, and then rolled and crawled... He really rolled and crawled under the legs of several sailors who jumped up and hit people, and ran towards the casino gate in a mess!
Outside the inn, Qiao and a large group of people arrived.
