Chapter 114: Kneeling Harvey
Chapter 113 – Kneeling Harvey
“This is the information that the other party has uttered, we have confirmed it over and over again.” Witch Hunter handed Maya a thick stack of parchment in his hand, with an expression of intent still on his face.
“People don’t play bad, the master may still have a use for it.” Maya said somewhat helplessly at the sight.
Although these witch hunters recast their forms and obtained more beautiful looks, but the inner distortion is still not much better, except for the fanatical loyalty to their masters, they acted without scruples, plus after learning from those ninjas, their methods are even more unacceptable, if they don’t say one more word, the hell knows what that captive will turn into in the end.
“Alright, will send the person back as is.” Witch Hunter smiled and nodded.
This meant that it wasn’t as is now?
Without further dwelling on it, Maya shook her head and began to look over the records of the interrogations that had been sent in.
Don’t say, it was really detailed, since the year Harvey started to remember, many things that he had probably forgotten were recalled under outside pressure, hence why so much had been written.
Skipping some personal secrets, Maya was more concerned about which side of the force Harvey belonged to.
“So it’s the Black Hand.” It dawned on Maya that she had dealt with the other side back then.
The Black Hand was a famous old organization in the empire, having dealings with most of the nobles, it was said that it was initially the emperor’s white glove, and then a certain emperor unexplainedly disappeared, and all the princes used the imperial capital as a battlefield, repeatedly fighting for many years, and even the big nobles from all over the world listened to the tone but not to the announcement, and the Black Hand took the opportunity to get out of the royal control at that very time.
Separated from the royal control of the black hand, although the power to reduce a lot, but the base is still there, coupled with no shortage of customers, slowly developed into a very large-scale huge organization, tentacles spread over half of the empire.
Black hand divided into left and right hand, there are two leaders, to the left hand right hand as the name, respectively have five fingers as the commander, involving a wide range.
But in general, the left hand is more inclined to the intelligence side, taking into account smuggling, theft, auction.
The right hand favors combat, assassins, mercenaries, guards, can provide professionals, so although the power and manpower is not as good as the left hand, but the strength of the other side of the head.
But also because of the specialization in combat, resulting in some aspects of the shortfall, a lot of business, logistics and intelligence are provided by the left-handed, so the external left-handed is the main.
Harvey belongs to the left hand small thumb subordinate elite, was sent to the north as a nail, for the left hand intelligence organization penetration to make a front stop, but unfortunately, the division is not yet successful body first death, long make the hero tears full of lapel.
“Cooperate with the other side?” Owen’s head was full of fog, after all, it was not a wise choice to bring an intelligence organization into the territory on its own initiative.
“The Black Hand has a fairly deep partnership with most of the Empire’s nobles, so they have a rule that they don’t sell the intelligence of their local collaborators, although this rule is not absolute.” Maya explained to Owen how the Black Hand operated.
To put it bluntly, it was bullying, the Black Hand was essentially responsible for doing the dirty work for the local nobles, so unless they were given too much, they would not sell out the intelligence of their local collaborators, as doing so would not be conducive to developing and expanding the organization’s scope of business.
“Since the Black Hand dispatched personnel to the Northlands, it means that they have their eyes on this place, killing the other party would be useless, but instead, it would be easy to be targeted.” Maya went on to say, which also made Owen finally nod his head in agreement, because regardless of whether he was happy or not, the Black Hand reaching into the Northlands had become a foregone conclusion, and it would be better to take the initiative to seek cooperation rather than going around on the defensive at that time.
Not to mention that once they cooperated, they would be party A, taking the initiative. “Will the other side agree? The territory’s location isn’t good, and the explicit strength isn’t considered the strongest, so I’m sure the Black Hand won’t cooperate with the weak, right?” Owen scratched his head, his scalp felt itchy after using his brain too much, but he still found something.
“Master, you are underestimating the ability and value of those ninjas.” Maya couldn’t help but remind.
Keeping assassin killers was considered a tradition of the nobles, but there was a world of difference between professionalism and strength.
The ninja’s frontal combat power wasn’t too high, but assassination was specialized, especially after learning the breathing technique, which not only increased the frontal combat ability, but also made assassination more deadly.
Moreover, after obtaining all kinds of magic potions and props, even Owen can not figure out what they can do, after all, the territory is fine, and he does not mess with the outside, the territory of the NPC have no use.
However, Owen believes in Maya’s vision, after all, she is the only person in the entire territory who has seen the world.
Since Maya valued the ninja so much, Owen decided to strengthen the construction of the ninja team, when the time came to cooperate with the people of the Black Hand would not be belittled, so that they would give birth to bad ideas, strength is never the most important foundation for peace, the weak have no qualifications to seek peace.
When Harvey walked out from the dungeon, the whole person was in a trance, at the moment he saw Owen, he cried, if he was not being watched closely, he could not wait to slip and kneel over to hug the other party’s thighs to show his loyalty.
Don’t blame him for kneeling fast, Harvey could have sworn he would have to even if his superior pinky fell into the hands of those perverted witches.
Being turned into a variety of small animals, even if it was cut parts and then glued back to him, he also tolerated, after all, not bad, but to give him that kind of medicine, research what cross-species bloodline reproduction improvement is not a human being can do things.
Especially when they are still discussing what magical maiden cultivation manual, he Harvey even if he surrendered and died on his knees right here, he would never let this group of perverted witches have their way.
With this despair, no, with this awareness, is not what Maya said what he believed, decisively the upper small thumbs with the organization’s part of the plan to betray the bottom of the sky, at the same time secretly hate their own position is not high enough, betrayal is not thorough enough.
Can not say that Harvey is a soft egg, the black hand of the elite personnel have received rigorous training, caught, tortured, interrogated, these are the focus of training, if it fell into the hands of other nobles, you see his performance is not wonderful, but can not help but he encountered a group of professional dead with a group of bottomless witch, is from the body to the soul, and then to the will of the repeated ravages, the more frightening is that, a variety of strong healing magic potion with no money! What’s more, all kinds of powerful healing magic potions are just like no money at all.
Of course, those witches are also very frugal, will turn him into a variety of small animals, the same is a variety of cuts, because of the size of the reason, the consumption of magic potion is less, the problem is that the pain is a little bit not with less.
Harvey was let go, he will serve as a bridge between the territory and the black hand, but before leaving he has to lead a way, lead Howard to a trip to Mara Town, squeeze the last bit of value.
“Mara Town can’t be deserted if we take it over, but there’s a problem of who to put in charge of it.” Owen wasn’t worried that Howard couldn’t defeat Mara Town, although there were quite a few nomadic tribes gathered there, but most of the adult men were captured by the territory, and those who weren’t captured were dead, so surrendering would be their only option in this situation.
A tribe can be without a leader, but never without men, otherwise it will soon be annexed or extinct, so their only choice is to surrender.
Otherwise, what can be done, all the tribes are left with only old people, children and women, how can they live in the northern wilderness without men.
