As the night grew darker, the manor became quieter.

The mercenaries are not dedicated guys. Even though they are supposed to be on duty all night according to regulations, a considerable number of them still choose to sleep peacefully.

Haha, we are mountain mercenaries. It would be nice if we don't destroy other people's lives. Who dares to provoke us?

Brother is right, don't worry, everyone!

Stop talking and go to sleep!

As a result, not long after I lay down, I heard a dull loud noise in my sleep.

At first, some people thought it was thunder, but the successive noises dispelled their beautiful illusions.

And based on the sound, oh my god, the place where the explosion occurred turned out to be the small villa of Captain Andrew!

Incidents of violent creatures have become more and more intense in recent times, and almost everyone knows that it is only a matter of time before they spread to the inner city.

So they subconsciously thought that a violent creature had invaded, and started to arm themselves in fear and anger.

But although the organization had previously practiced what to do if the enemy attacked from outside.

But I never thought about how to deal with the enemy if it appeared directly inside.

therefore.

Those who want to huddle together to stay warm and stay indoors, those who want to rush outside in one go, those who want to put on strength and go to the Savior...

The mercenaries huddled together in a mess, turning into a pot of porridge.

Until Sheldon stopped in front of the door, knocked over a panicked and screaming mercenary with the handle of his knife, and sent out a shock with a bonus of energy and blood.

Quiet, everyone stop where I am and wait for my command!

The chaotic soldiers finally stopped panicking and regained some order.

Although Sheldon didn't know what was happening, he had read many books and was not helpless.

After dispatching most of the mercenaries into small teams to guard the various exits and key passages of the manor.

He immediately took the most elite group of his men to Captain Andrew's villa.

Under the dim light of the fire, this exquisite and elegant two-story building looked quite desolate.

Several burnt black and explosion marks were extremely eye-catching, like ugly scars on an elegant face.

In front of the door, Andrew sat in a high-backed chair, eyes closed.

His face was ashen, but despite this, he still tried his best to maintain his unique calmness and calmness as a noble.

But the slightly trembling goatee revealed that his heart was not as peaceful as it appeared.

The other three captains of the mercenary group all stood aside with their hands tied, their heads lowered respectfully, and behind them were their close subordinates.

——No matter what happens, if the regiment leader is attacked, as a subordinate, he should be the first to rush to support and rescue.

But in order to do business, I actually lagged so far behind other colleagues, which is a big taboo in the circle!

Damn...

Sheldon cursed secretly and had no choice but to step forward.

Before he spoke, he bowed first.

Sorry, Captain, I'm late.

After he finished explaining what he had done during this period, Andrew's face looked slightly better.

I see, you do have a heart.

But as he rubbed the handle of the knife in his hand, he gritted his teeth and his knuckles slowly turned white again.

Damn it, I finally got a new pet with a nice sound. I was having fun, but someone bombed my door.

Even one blast was not enough. I don’t know how the other party did it. The deafening explosions actually happened continuously in various places in the villa.

Even though the power was not as great as he imagined, and the house did not collapse because it was specially reinforced, he was still startled by such a big movement.

And when Andrew was eager to rush outside, he suddenly felt a twitching pain in his calf, causing him to fall hard on the steps in front of the door.

What's even worse is that his stomach suddenly growled, and he couldn't control it, so he farted loudly under his pants.

If everything that happened before only made him angry, then now he was really furious.

Because the explosion had been happening for a while by then, mercenaries kept coming here.

As the leader of the Mountain People's Hammer Mercenary Group, a descendant of the great nobles and the future Marquis, Andrew Gunshan.

He actually fell down and farted loudly in front of so many people!

Falling, farting, in front of so many people!

It's so embarrassing...

What a shame! ! !

If not too many people saw this scene and the situation was really urgent, he really wanted to kill everyone who knew about it.

But now that he had calmed down, fear kept rising in his heart.

Being able to sneak into his own manor, or even inside the villa, and use magic or something to trigger such a dense explosion...

What level of power is the opponent?

Could it be that he is the same mysterious man who quietly stole the supplies he stored at the underground pass?

Wait... supplies!

Sheldon!

exist!

Andrew adjusted his breathing and asked as calmly as possible.

Have you sent anyone to check the underground warehouse?

this……

Although Sheldon knew that there was a secret passage to the outside underground, the key was in the drawer. I have never left the office. There is no way for the infiltrator to leave from there, nor to hide in a dead end to wait for death, so there is no waste of manpower to go there.

You! Forget it, you guys continue searching, I'll take someone to take a look.

Andrew hurriedly led his guards underground. However, as soon as he reached the second underground floor, he felt that the temperature was gradually rising and there was a burning smell.

...Quick, walk faster!

He hurried a few steps. But he saw that the large iron door on the third underground floor had been opened.

The scorching tongues of fire rolled and stirred, and inside was the scene he least wanted to see.

Perhaps Andrew's design of the underground fortress was indeed exquisite, but he overlooked a very important point.

——The more solid and deep it is, the harder it will be to put out the fire.

And after wasting too much time, the original fire points had easily connected into pieces, swallowing up the goods inside.

Quick, bring more water down!

I think we should hire a mage who knows water magic quickly. The fire is too fierce.

No, my lord said, everything that happens here is top secret!

Therefore, the entire mercenary group worked hard for half a night before putting out the last fire with difficulty.

And rather than putting it out, it is better to say that there is nothing left to burn.

In the silence, the heavy aristocratic burden became the last shackles that bound Andrew's sanity.

He stood in front of the ashes for a moment, shouted everyone away, and asked his trusted guards to guard the stairs before reaching the depths of the corridor.

There was no place to burn here, so everything was normal, so normal that he could see the footprints on the ground and the obvious signs that the iron door had been opened at a glance.

Pfft, hahaha...

After lowering his head and thinking for a moment, he suddenly let out a suppressed and low laugh.

With heavy breathing, Andrew unscrewed the iron door and walked quickly down.

After a long time, he calmly adjusted his belt and returned to the third underground floor.

He moved his somewhat stiff fingers and wiped away a drop of blood on his collar.

How's it going? Have you finished checking?

The loyal guards did not speak, but handed him a small bag of things.

Andrew opened it, took a look, sighed slightly, and nodded tiredly.

Very well, go inform them and come to my conference room for a meeting immediately.

If it were normal, the wanton mercenaries would have been eager to go out for fun.

But after a tense night, the atmosphere in the manor became unusually depressed and serious.

Everyone's face was tense, with no smile in sight, and no one dared to leave secretly for fear of standing out.

In the conference room on the third floor of the small villa, the four captains were on pins and needles.

Now that everyone is here, let's start this emergency meeting.

Although Andrew looked normal, people who knew him well knew that this was actually a sign that his anger had reached its peak.

He knocked on the table and raised an ugly smile.

Before the discussion begins, please allow me to inform you of our losses this night.

First of all, our warehouse was set on fire. Although some results were achieved with everyone's brave efforts to save the fire, less than one-tenth of the supplies were saved.

Sheldon stood up immediately.

I'm sorry, captain, it's my inability to take countermeasures. I...

Andrew didn't even raise his eyelids.

sit down.

Sheldon opened his mouth, but as a knight he did not dare to disobey the noble lord's order, so he had to sit down with his head shrunk.

Secondly, according to subsequent inventory and reporting, many mercenaries' personal property, including public property in the mercenary building, has been damaged to varying degrees.

Andrew took out a small stack of papers and scattered them on the table.

Oh, and one last thing, my residence was also attacked by unknown forces...

He finally couldn't hold back the awkward look of pretending to be calm and gentle, and his voice continued to rise while trembling.

The other party sneaked into it by unknown means and triggered a series of explosions by unknown means! Then...

The sound stopped suddenly, Andrew released his teeth and let out a long breath.

Anyway, I need an explanation, and Mountain Man Hammer needs an explanation.

If any of you here have any clues or inspirations about this, or these bastards, please tell us now.

As soon as he finished speaking, Galami took the lead in speaking in order to show his merit.

Captain, I think there is a mole within us!

As soon as this statement came out, the atmosphere in the conference room immediately became tense.

Garami's forehead was covered with sweat, but he still had the courage to continue speaking.

I, I am willing to share the worries of the leader and help you find him!

Sadly, as the most badass captain in the organization, he would never have done this before.

But last night I drank too much in Liuying Lane, and everyone knew that I came back drunk with a woman in my arms.

If it was normal, after being scolded by the group leader, he would just definitely do it next time. Who knew that such a big thing happened last night!

If this was really investigated seriously, even if he had no fault, he would still have to drink a pot of wine for dereliction of duty.

The matter has come to this, and only by finding a way to show off one's face and make a contribution can this matter be brought to light.

After hearing this, the group leader nodded as he expected.

Then he asked in his delighted eyes.

So Galamy, who do you think is the mole?

Okay! Thanks...

Galami subconsciously prepared to express his gratitude, but was completely confused by these words.

Thinking about it carefully, even his face started to tremble.

Who dares to say this?

It's easy to say if I'm right, but if I'm wrong...

I don't know, Captain, hehe, how could I possibly know...

It’s better to act stupid quickly and stop the loss in time.

Ah.

Andrew did not embarrass him, but turned his attention to Bales, who was in charge of managing the self-discipline team.

Bars, who do you think the mole might be?

Bars was silent for a moment, and finally squirmed the scar on his face and whispered.

Captain, the other party can quietly enter the manor, get close to the villa, sneak underground, and complete various threatening behaviors. Even if they have investigated in advance or even stepped on it, they absolutely cannot do it without the help of insiders. So much so.”

Every word is like chewing stones with difficulty, because this spearhead will be aimed at all colleagues present.

So I speculate that not only does this traitor exist, but he must be a captain-level figure!

As soon as this statement came out, the atmosphere in the conference room immediately became more tense.

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other, because they had already guessed this possibility.

Andrew nodded thoughtfully, and then turned to Sheldon.

Sheldon, what do you think?

Sheldon rubbed his temples and closed his eyes, but there was a war between heaven and man in his heart.

In the end, loyalty outweighed the anxiety, and I spoke firmly.

Captain, I think the mole is Galami!

Galamy's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Sheldon, who was usually as respected as a big brother, would slander him like this.

Brother, my brother has treated you to a drink and helped a poor girl. With such a strong friendship, you actually...

He slammed the table and immediately retorted excitedly.

You're talking nonsense! How could I be a mole!

Now that the offending words had been spoken, Sheldon regained his composure.

If you are not a mole, can you tell me where the two Orioles you brought last night went?

Such a big thing happened in our group, how could I still leave outsiders present?

Galami secretly glanced at the group leader's face and spoke hurriedly.

I paid a hush fee and said we were conducting a tactical exercise, so I sent it back...

Slapping the table again, he raised his palms trembling like a knife.

I'm going to silence you right now... Captain, you believe me, I'm going to silence you right now!

No need, they have disappeared.

The subordinates were all bragging and staring, ready to fight in front of them, but Andrew still lowered his eyes.

He raised his hand slightly and dropped an almost melted ring on the table.

I found it among the embers of the fire. I'm blind, Johnson? Help me identify it.

As the only mage among the four captains, the down-and-out nobleman Johnson is also a collector.

It's funny to say that he didn't lose any treasure in last night's large-scale robbery. Instead, he lost a cardboard box.

A very precious treasure chest filled with the crystallization of the history of Yangyue Civilization, as golden as gold...

In fact, he had been in EMO for a long time, so he sighed habitually before picking up the ring.

But it doesn't matter at this glance, I finally pulled off my mustache.

He shuddered and dropped the ring as if he had touched a branding iron.

Captain Sheldon, this is yours...

Hurrah!

Before Sheldon could make any reaction, Galami slapped him again, and he slapped the crime directly.

Sheldon, no wonder you want to slander me, it turns out you are the mole!

Touching his empty index finger, Sheldon turned pale.

How is this possible? It was stolen...

But he couldn't continue talking in the middle of the sentence, because he had already vowed before that he would always stay in the office and there was absolutely no possibility of the key being stolen.

And now...

One of the two is definitely a lie, and no matter which side it is, it means suspicion and betrayal.

I have always regarded you as my brother. You betrayed everyone and actually wanted to trick your brother to death!

Faced with Sheldon who fell into silence, Galami naturally would not hold back, but beat up the drowned dog.

Who did you go to? The Adventurers Association? The Business Federation? Or Fei...

Before the next exit, he stopped the already dangerous car in time.

After holding on to the desk to calm down for a moment, he suddenly realized a problem.

Captain, please say something~ah!

The final modal word changed sharply, like a big white goose being strangled by the neck.

Because without any warning, Andrew inserted the dagger in his hand into his palm.

He looked up with mockery in his eyes.

Galami, when did you betray me?
