Valkyrie Europa

Chapter 302 The Third Force

After the attack was over, the convoy of course did not continue to visit the Vienna Academy of Arts, but left a group of soldiers to deal with the aftermath, then turned around and returned to the Hofburg Palace.

On the street, the people were dispersed, and teams of soldiers began to clean up the attack site, collect the corpses, observe and record the situation around the attack site
In the streets and alleys, teams of patrols armed with armor also started a large-scale search, and every hotel, restaurant, and tavern began to be cleaned up in detail and strictly.People kept being taken out of the hotel, and people resisted and were killed on the spot
As night fell slowly, in a luxurious room in the Hofburg Palace, the guard commander who was in charge of dealing with the aftermath began to report the results of the day.

"Reporting to Grand Duke Louisa, General Sophie, and Lord D'Artagnan, we have collected 34 enemy corpses near the attack point! After identification and observation, we can basically confirm that they are all outspoken senior spies of the German Intelligence Department! High-level assassins! Each has amazing strength! There are two of them, which are basically certain, Hobson and Mond, the two German spy chiefs hiding in our Vienna and leading the entire Austrian intelligence affairs."

"During the whole afternoon's operation, we followed the vines and broke through 5 secret contact points of German spies, and captured 58 German spies hidden in hiding! Among them, 17 resisted arrest and resisted, and were suppressed and killed by our army! Now, Our Army's Interrogation Department is strictly interrogating them overnight! Try to thoroughly question their intelligence network before dawn! Clean up all the German spies hiding in Austria."

"Wait!" Miss Sophie, who was sitting on the right side of Grand Duke Luisa, interrupted his report, and asked with a frown, "Then the last swordsman and strong man who escaped were caught?"

"This..." The general who made the report suddenly broke out in sweat: "We are still searching for these two people! I believe that it will not be difficult to get news about those German spies when we pry their mouths open. Now the whole city has been blocked. I promise, in these two days, the two who escaped will be caught!"

"I hope you can really do what you say." Miss Sophie gave him a meaningful look, then waved her hand and said, "Okay, you can go down and do your work! If you catch someone, report it!"

When the general stepped back and left the palace, Miss Sophie cast her eyes on D'Artagnan who was standing aside: "What do you mean by saying that the last two people are unusual?"

"I think these two people should not be with the German spies!" D'Artagnan said directly: "If he goes down and tortures him, he probably won't get any news."

"Why do you say that, didn't they come to assassinate together?" Grand Duke Luisa looked a little scared: "If you didn't take the shot, maybe they would have succeeded. I think about that knife now, and I feel very scared. This The sword technique can be practiced to this level."

"They didn't come together!" D'Artagnan denied: "You two may not be aware that you two are in the middle of the battle. The two of them saw that the previous batch of German assassins fell into a disadvantage and were about to fail. Shot!"

He continued: "And when I escaped at the end, I don't know if you have noticed that the swordsman among them only reminded his partner to escape, but did not remind the other German assassins in the bitter battle! If they were together, could it be Shouldn't they shout something like 'there is a martial artist, let's run separately'? And the two of them are obviously superior in martial arts than those German assassins! It's just one knife, even Grand Duke Luisa can't stop it! The one with the knife It is also the top group in the Venerable class! It seems that it is not far from the Martial Saint class! And the German spy chief Hobson who is in charge of the entire Austrian spy network is just a parallel importer who has just entered the Venerable class That's all."

After hearing his analysis, Miss Sophie's brows deepened: "Then who do you think they are? Could it be those demons and heretics?"

"Probably not!" D'Artagnan denied again: "Those demons heretics, whether vampires or skeleton cults, are all asking for more blood and corpses of the strong. They are basically in Germany now. The front line, stealing benefits during the confrontation between the two armies, will not come to Austria, even if there is an assassination on the Austrian side, how many people can die? It can't compare to the front line of the two countries' confrontation. Therefore, it should not be them!"

"Wait!" Grand Duke Luisa suddenly said: "I seem to understand something! They, like Germany, want to get rid of me! That means getting rid of me is beneficial to them! Once I die, Austria will There will be chaos! It will even threaten His Majesty Napoleon's logistics line! It will hinder the offensive of the army, and the war between the two countries will fall into a protracted stalemate! They are likely to be from other countries! They want to prolong the war! Both France and Germany will suffer !"

"Yes!" Miss Sophie's eyes brightened, "There are more and more powerful countries on the mainland, but only the three of us can be called big countries. England is far away from the mainland, and now a civil war has broken out. I can't take care of myself, let's not mention it for now. Now in France and Germany occupy the most fertile land on the mainland. If our two countries lose both sides, they, the second-order powers, may rise up! Become a new big country! They want to draw chestnuts out of the fire !"

Then she looked at D'Artagnan next to him: "Well, I will write a letter to His Majesty to explain the situation, and you stay here just in case! Suppress those turbulent undercurrents for us! After all, Austria cannot If there is a mistake, we must protect Grand Duke Luisa and guarantee the logistics line! Until His Majesty returns in victory!"

"Okay." Hearing Miss Sophie's suggestion, D'Artagnan's eyes softened a lot: "Then I will stay. I will go out for a walk tomorrow and see if I can find those two assassins first." Come out. After all, I am a martial saint now, and it would be embarrassing for me to let two assassins escape with me."

In the Chicken Feather Hotel, the door was knocked on the wall.

"Are you painters who come to study?" the patrol soldier outside the door asked.

"Yes, we are from Brnaau, and we have been fond of painting since we were young," Adolf hurriedly stepped forward to explain.

"Yes, they are from Burnau. They have come to Vienna to study several times, but they were not admitted to the Paris Academy of Art. They are all painters, and they must not be assassins." The old man outside the door also helped explain.

The patrolling soldiers outside the door still couldn't believe it, and pointed to the much stronger Adolf and said, "You, yes, it's you, then draw a picture for me to see."

Fortunately, Adolf's craftsmanship did not fail. With just a few strokes, he outlined a slim and beautiful figure on the drawing paper, successfully dismissing the search.

"Oh, it seems that the search is very strict. I don't know when the limelight will pass." Adolf said with emotion: "This is the third batch, and even this kind of chicken feather hotel will not be spared."

"It's fine if we can deal with the past." Zhang Ang thought for a while, and said seriously: "I think that although the assassination was unsuccessful, we don't need to leave so soon. I just had a new idea!"
