Chapter 344 The Returning Ship
On the regular commercial route from Victoria to Kazdale, two sturdy-looking off-road vehicles were leading the way, with the Black Steel International logo printed on the doors.
The two off-road vehicles were filled with fully armed mercenaries. They were the security force hired by the caravan to protect the goods and personnel as they passed safely through the wilderness.
Dozens of fully loaded heavy trucks followed the off-road vehicle. The roaring Originium engines raised gusts of yellow sand. The rough sand hit the face with the wind, rubbing the skin and causing pain.
"Oh... I haven't been back for more than half a year, and Kazdel has changed a lot." In the heavy truck in the middle of the convoy, an elegant figure reached out and lifted a corner of the tarpaulin, revealing bloodshot eyes, and admired the scenery along the way with interest.
A bright and clear blood-red crystal pendant was hung on a silver chain on her slender white neck. The hot wind blew across her cheeks, and her dark and smooth hair fluttered across a pair of long pointed ears.
A small decoration similar to bat wings extended from the left shoulder, and the black and red high-low skirt was slightly lifted in the breeze, like rose petals blowing in the wind by the river.
She is a blood demon, a member of Rose Riverside, the intelligence and espionage department of Kazdel, and an important person in charge of cleanup.
This time I returned to Kazdel, on the one hand to visit my sisters, and on the other hand to personally meet His Highness Roy.
Before Kazdel was officially established, Rose Riverside only reported to Theresa.
Theresa strictly prohibited Rose River from secretly investigating Roy's background and past, resulting in most members knowing little more about the prince than ordinary people.
Indereishi has been traveling around Victoria and missed the important and grand founding celebrations.
Although she could occasionally get information about His Highness Roy from letters from her sisters who stayed in Kazdel, she still hoped to get to know him face to face.
Through the strong force of the heart's contraction pumping blood, Indrehi can feel the emotions of the person in front of him.
"There are so many new and interesting things that I have never seen before. This time when I come back to visit my sisters, I must take the time to learn more about them."
The commercial convoy continued to go deeper into Kazdel, and the strange buildings being built in the wasteland attracted Indrehi's attention.
An excellent intelligence officer needs to be fully aware of all domestic intelligence while collecting intelligence from other countries.
......
The convoy boarded the large lifting platform and, after identity verification and cargo inspection, successfully entered the city of Kazdel.
Hitchhiker Indrehi stuck his head out to observe the city environment, and when the convoy stopped in front of a large warehouse and prepared to unload the goods into the warehouse, a blurry blood shadow jumped up, jumped onto the eaves and disappeared without a trace.
The first person the blurry blood shadow found was Askalon, who was waiting and investigating around the confidential department. She was waiting for the spy to come and inquire, and couldn't help but fall into the trap.
"Who!" Askalon paused his deliberately suppressed breath, and the wrist knife hidden in his right forearm popped out like lightning and stabbed suddenly behind him.
"Little guy, your skills are improving very quickly. You can now hurt me." Two slender white fingers clamped the cold blade, the skin was cut, and bright red blood dripped along the palm.
"It's you, why are you back?" The murderous intent in Askalon's eyes disappeared, and he silently retracted the wrist knife, still looking at the woman in front of him with a wary face.
"I wanted to come back, so I came back. What? Don't you welcome me?" Yin Laixi's mouth curled up slightly with a playful smile.
The blood dripping onto the ground rose up and returned to her palm.
"No, what is your purpose for coming back suddenly this time?" Askalon looked behind Yindelaixi and did not see anyone traveling with him, so he asked indifferently.
"Of course I came back to see you, little guy. Here, this is for you..." Yin Delaixi condensed the blood that had just flowed out of his injury into pure blood crystal and handed it to Askalon.
"..." Askalon stared at the blood crystal, was silent for a moment, and finally did not take the blood crystal.
"Oh, this is a good stuff. Many people are begging for it. Why don't you want it?" Yin Delaixi pretended to be disappointed and put the pure blood crystal back into his pocket.
For a blood demon, every drop of blood is very important.
"The smell of blood will expose my position, and stealth operations will be inconvenient." Ascalon shifted his gaze away from Indreshi and waited for the spy to appear again.
"Alas, with a person like you who doesn't have a single bit of femininity in her body, how are you going to find a partner in the future?" Indelaix leaned lazily against the wall, watching Askalon who had entered the hunting state and joked.
"..." Askalon seemed not to listen to Indreshi's words and still remained in a secretive lurking state.
"Forget it, there's no point chatting with you. I'd better go find His Highness." Without waiting for Ascalon's response, Indlaixi sighed lightly, and his body turned into a blood shadow and quickly disappeared.
There was a knock on the solid wooden door of the office. Roy, who was busy, did not look up. He just casually said "Come in" and continued to look through the documents that had just been submitted yesterday.
The high heels made a rhythmic, crisp sound on the wooden floor. Roy recognized that the footsteps did not belong to anyone he knew, so he looked up.
This was a strange female blood demon, whom I didn’t recognize...but since she was able to come before me, it meant that she had passed the identity verification and security check by the lich assistant at the door.
"It's an honor to meet you, His Highness Roy. I am the aftermath of the ship on the Rose River, Indrehi, please allow me to express my sincere greetings to you." Indrehi smiled, bent slightly, lifted the hem of her skirt with both hands, and performed a standard Victorian skirt-lifting salute.
"People from Rose River, don't you only report to Theresa? There is no registration information for you in my schedule." Roy checked today's schedule specifically, and there was no record of any visit from Rose River members.
"This visit is a personal act of mine because I want to get to know you. It has nothing to do with the work arrangements at Rose Riverside."
"If my coming will disturb your work, I can remain quiet and serve as your temporary assistant. My work ability has been recognized by Her Highness Theresa, and I believe I can do the job."
"No need, we can talk now." Roy stood up, and his magic clone automatically took over his work.
......
In the meeting hall of the Inquisition headquarters in the Iberian city of Perdoni, the Saints' Conference that had just ended was held again a week later.
The mysterious hooded doctor put his hands in his pockets and participated in this Saints' meeting as an outsider. No one questioned his qualifications. Before the meeting, Saint Carmen privately met with various saints and revealed the existence of salty rice and his cooperation with outsiders.
At this meeting of saints, the doctor took out the salty rice again and generously asked the saints to come forward to verify its authenticity. The doctor was observing the saints, and the saints were also observing the doctor. At the end of the meeting, both sides backed off and reached a cooperation.
The Tribunal Headquarters announced a cooperation project with an agricultural company, Bandumar Agrotech, and in the presence of nine saints, sowed saltwater rice seeds into the experimental fields.
