Chapter 80: Protecting the Nation 1
Tsk… Thomas gasped. So this was where fate was taking its toll!
"Is it elite beginner, intermediate, or advanced level?" Thomas asked.
And there is another question: why would an elite soldier take on such a position?
Elite warriors are probably similar to the doctor in Thomas' previous life.
Some places have a lot of them, some places have very few, but basically they are all well-off.
But this question is not easy to ask. If you ask it, Anna will probably become suspicious.
Because the person who was impersonated by Thomas probably came here all the way for this reason.
"I'm sorry, Lord Wolf Leader, I don't know that," Anna replied. "I only know he's very strong. Even the previous Lord Wolf praised him. He'd completed three assassination missions independently, so much so that the other two Lord Wolfs thought he'd become Lord Wolf."
Three assassination missions?
Thomas then realized that perhaps this matter was more dangerous than he had expected.
This Night Wolf is not only an intelligence station, but also an assassin.
Did he learn it from the Assassins?
Of course, assassins and spies seem to be born the same kind of people.
In Thomas's memories of his previous life, those "spies" and "special agents" were a combination of the two.
"Please be patient and wait a moment." For the time being, Thomas could not do more, and it was normal for birds to react slightly later when delivering messages.
I must go back and sort out the overall intelligence.
After returning to his residence, Thomas got some paper and pen and listed the situation of the Wolf's Den Intelligence Station.
First of all, the Wolf's Lair has its own independent industry and is considered to be under the command of the alpha wolf.
The largest part of this industry is the assassination platform.
To put it bluntly, the alpha wolf uses the intelligence network of the wolf den, the task issuing network, and especially the Feixin capability, to "lend" it to various killers and assassins.
This is a very fast platform. It is a mutual use, and only commission is taken when tasks are completed.
Then, based on this, he developed various connections and industries, including but not limited to real estate, housing, loan sharking, and other different industries.
The wolf's den looks shabby, but it is actually an independent kingdom.
If you don't have any special ambitions, then the alpha wolf will have a very comfortable life.
No wonder all the wolves were dissatisfied when Thomas came to power.
As for the key personnel in the Wolf's Lair...
The first one is Anna, who is completely a tool.
It can be understood as Thomas's wireless operator in his previous life.
Here in Wolf's Nest, she is just a Fetion person in charge and has no combat power. If she is disliked, she will be replaced.
The former wolf leader did not trust Anna and did not tell her everything, and he definitely kept some things to himself.
Although all Fetion messages passed through her, she did not have the opportunity to see all of them. Letters can also be encrypted.
So, she should be relatively harmless, but she should indeed be considered the Wolf Lord's person. She is considered an informant.
She does not have the ability to kill, nor does she have the opportunity to kill.
The second is the Wolf Lord.
The direct superior of Wolf's Den.
However, this leader controls the interior of the wolf's den remotely. He should know everyone's identity, but he does not give direct commands.
To him, the Wolf's Lair is just a "black box". He doesn't care whether the inside is in chaos or harmonious. As long as the mission is completed, he will make a profit.
He doesn't care what's going on inside the wolf's den; he just tries to maintain the most basic order.
For example, if a wolf is suspected of having killed the leader, he cannot take the position. Otherwise, it would be encouraging internal assassination.
Of course, he had no interest in avenging the alpha wolf.
He also poses no direct threat to Thomas.
The other three are the Snow Wolf, the Blue Wolf and the Fire Wolf.
Although Anna believes that Fire Wolf was the one who killed the previous Alpha Wolf, Thomas disagrees.
Blue Wolf was recruited by the previous alpha wolf, so logically he should be a loyal subordinate of the previous alpha wolf.
But he obviously had no intention of avenging the previous alpha wolf, nor did he even want to expose the matter to the new alpha wolf.
This in itself shows that he is unreliable and is likely the murderer.
Even if he is not a murderer, he is at least an opportunist.
The same goes for the Snow Wolf, either he is only interested in his own one acre and three mu of land, or he is a murderer.
Not to mention Fire Wolf. Anna directly suspected him of being the murderer.
Even though the death of the previous alpha wolf was an accident and had nothing to do with the evil wolves, he, the new alpha wolf, was definitely a thorn in their eyes.
Thomas knew very well that he could not take any chances in this matter.
This matter is most likely the backlash of fate.
This was the price he paid for plucking the strings of fate until they started smoking in Bohemia.
In other words, problems cannot be solved by hiding, avoiding, or admitting defeat.
Moreover, this is indeed the case in terms of rational judgment.
Now, according to the rules of the game, Snow Wolf, Blue Wolf and Fire Wolf are still waiting for him, the newly appointed leader, to make his move.
Because they didn't know what abilities or resources the new leader had. After all, he was a stranger from a distant land, and no one knew if a monk from afar could chant sutras.
In this situation, it is obviously unwise to attack immediately. We should first test who Thomas is.
So they pretended to be deaf and dumb to test Thomas's reaction.
In this regard, they are either accomplices or have a tacit understanding.
Thomas's reaction determines what to do next.
Now is Thomas's turn to play his cards, and the three wolves are waiting to see what he will do. They will not act rashly during this period.
If Thomas delays and doesn't play his cards... then it will be their turn to play their cards.
At that time, even if Thomas drinks a glass of water, he will have to check whether it is poisonous first!
"In other words..." he whispered to the air above his head. "Does it have to happen soon?"
Take the initiative to find them instead of passively waiting for them to come.
If he passively waited for them to come to him, Thomas was sure that they would probably bring swords as souvenirs.
While Thomas was thinking about what to do, he heard a knock on the door.
Rhythmic knocking.
Thomas quickly gathered up his paper, pen, and other things, then opened the door.
The person outside the door was none other than Janos.
"how?"
"Lord Thomas, I have heard of a very urgent matter." Yanos said.
Thomas looked up and looked around. He now lived in the city of Kiev. This was considered the dormitory of the Knights, and there were other people on both sides.
For the time being, members of the Knights Temporarily, led by a dozen Knight Commanders, gathered in the city of Kiev, waiting for orders from their superiors.
"Speak first."
Janos brushed off the snow and entered the room. "My lord, I heard a rumor about how the little prince of Volga Bulgar was able to escape all the way here."
"Why?" Thomas was also a little surprised.
Chapter 81: Protecting the Nation 2
At first, I thought that the eldest prince had just come to power and could not control the situation well, so it was normal that he could not catch the little prince.
But on closer thought, something didn't seem right. After all, all the other princes were captured, so how could the little prince escape alone? Was it pure luck?
"He's accompanied by a loyal guard, and that guard is a protector of the country! They say he's a protector of the country!"
Protect the country!
Thomas understood instantly and became alert.
Damn, no way?
The Wolf's Den incident was already troublesome enough, but fate wasn't satisfied and left me another pit in this place?
He subconsciously looked at the sky outside - the sky was already covered with snow.
Even the night cannot hide the heavy snow.
The heavy snow stopped at daybreak.
She jumped and walked in the snow. The tall and dense cedar trees looked like silver needles.
Her steps were unusually agile, and she always managed to step on the exposed rocks and tree roots. The sound she made was as faint as the ripples on the calm water.
In the blink of an eye, she was out of the jungle.
There was a slope ahead, and a group of people were already waiting in the knee-high snow.
The man in the lead was wearing a priest's robe, but his armor was visible through the sleeves.
Behind him were more than a dozen sturdy soldiers wearing armor and carrying various weapons. They were Russian soldiers.
Further away, there were a dozen horses.
These people came here on horseback, or rather, they noticed something was happening during their patrol and search, so they stayed and waited.
There were more than a dozen men on one side and only one woman on the other.
But the woman showed a bright smile, while the men looked nervous, as if facing a great enemy.
"Darisha?" the man in the priest's robe said in a deep voice.
"I'm glad to meet you. Why are you forcing me? I've been avoiding busy places and towns all this time. I just wanted to avoid this situation."
The woman had a smile on her face, but there was a hint of grievance in her voice.
But behind her soft voice, her eyes were determined, and her back was as straight as a pine tree in the forest. The contrast between her soft voice and her tough temperament was very impressive.
"We met last time, but unfortunately you ran away," said the man in the priest's robes. "My name is Polei, and I'm here on the orders of the Grand Duke of Kiev to invite the little prince to visit Kiev."
"Only invite one person, right?" The woman named Darissa sighed.
"You've come all the way from the Volga River, a long way. Aren't you tired?" Polei said, his tone slowing. "Why bother? He can be at the palace in Kiev. The Grand Duke will provide protection and make him feel at home."
"Forget it. We are just fleeing through your country, so there is no need to worry about us, Grand Duke. But... if I say so, you won't give up, right?" asked the woman.
"I'm just following orders. I know nothing else." Polei said in a deep voice, "Alright, I'll give you five counts to hand over the little prince. Otherwise... don't blame me for killing you! One... two... three..."
They said they would count to five, but in reality the count was not that long at all, because on the count of three, someone opened fire.
Bang bang bang!
Several soldiers fired musket bullets, catching the enemy by surprise.
Unfortunately, they are smart and the other party is not stupid either.
The woman had obviously been prepared for this little trick. The muzzle had already lost its target before the musket was fired.
On the snow, a figure leaped left and right like a light bird.
The bullets and arrows all missed.
The woman casually took out a short throwing spear from behind her.
Just throw it away.
