The Witcher: Son of the Planes.
Chapter 210: Hunter Colin
Whether in front of or behind the scenes, Steel Mane City did not find out any useful information, and even Colin's fur was not touched, so the investigation had to come to an end.
During the second month's vacation, Colin used the old method again and used Barrick to obtain the whereabouts of several squadron leaders. In just one night, he committed many crimes. They died on the street, at home, or in the home of a bunny girl or a fox girl.
The furious Pig-Headed City Lord Siwane and the commander of the new recruits' camp, the werewolf Wolf from Zhongshan, urgently discussed countermeasures. Three more squadron leaders had died. This was no joke. There must have been enemy spies who had infiltrated. However, judging from the fact that only the squadron leaders were targeted, the enemy spies must be relatively weak. Otherwise, why didn't they target the captain?
There is no such thing as a third time. If things continue like this, neither Swane nor Wolf will be able to hold on to their current positions. After thinking for a long time, they could not come up with any good solution. They could only try to restrict the squadron leader's going out. Besides, a squadron leader of this level is not allowed to go out alone.
It can only be said that without the help of the fox tribe, the orcs' thinking is too simple. It's not that Colin can't kill the captain, but he wants to completely destroy the organizational structure of the recruit camp. He picks the weak ones and of course starts with the ones that are easy to kill.
During the third month's vacation, Colin did not find any opportunities as the squadron leader's outings were deliberately reduced. However, the City Lord's Mansion Guards began to suffer, with six or seven guards dying in succession.
Now, Swane and Wolf really couldn't sit still. No matter how stupid they were, they came up with a stupid idea, which was not to act alone, but to focus on the group of people and see how you could kill them. Of course, they also increased the intensity of the investigation behind the scenes, but Colin was hiding in a deep place, and they didn't find anything.
With a first-level creature that can become invisible and two second-level creatures not killed, it is easy to imagine who can catch Colin, especially when only a few quasi-level warriors are dispatched, whoever touches him will die.
In the following period of time, Colin saw that the other side began to act collectively and was no longer limited to hunting the generals of the recruit camp. Every few nights, Colin began a crazy hunting operation. As long as there were no level one creatures present, he would kill them all, whether they were quasi-level warriors or mid-to-high-level warriors.
During this time, when Barrick went home to visit his relatives, he once suspected Brother Colin, but when he thought about it, so many people died at once. No matter how strong Brother Colin was, he couldn't kill them all. What's more, they were all orcs. Why would Brother Colin kill them? It's impossible. It definitely wasn't Brother Colin.
Swane and Wolf were so angry about the large-scale hunting of middle-level forces in Steel Mane City in recent months that they were ready to take action themselves.
However, Colin had already learned the news from Barrick. In the past ten days, Colin had not taken any action and slept soundly.
Swane and Wolf, who didn't understand why the hunting had stopped, were helpless. If they continued like this, it wouldn't be long before Steelmane City would be left with no generals available. How would they explain this to the Empire? Besides, they couldn't explain the matter any further and had to report it.
The Orc Empire took this very seriously, because problems had begun to appear not only in Steelmane City, but in other cities as well, with various assassinations and sabotages occurring one after another. The top brass of the empire believed that this must have been done by the human and elf coalition forces.
After receiving reports from Swane and Wolf, an investigation team consisting of the think tank foxman Sandy Fox and a team of dogman detectives was sent to Steelmane City.
It should be said that the racial advantage is still very obvious. The fighting power of the Fox Tribe and the Dog Tribe may not be very strong, but they are very good at investigation. According to the condition of the bodies of the dead orcs, it is easy to judge that the fatal wounds seemed to be caused by a sharp weapon, but it was definitely not a sharp weapon, but should be caused by some kind of cutting spell.
The infiltrating spy should be a magic professional, or at worst a part-time magic professional. The spell type is a bit like wind-based blade magic, or space magic.
According to Sandy Fox's analysis, a professional spy with this kind of strength must be at least quasi-level, and may even be a first-level creature.
After hearing this, Swane and Wolf realized that they had been thinking wrongly. They thought it was a quasi-level warrior who was causing trouble. They were on the wrong track from the beginning. If it was a mage, he would have many methods and it would be difficult for them to investigate.
Steel Mane City has once again stepped up its investigation efforts, not just checking those who have entered the city in the past month, but expanding the scope to half a year. In addition, they have also focused on investigating the orcs and half-orcs of the humanoid race, because based on what has happened in other cities, the enemy also understands the rules of infiltration and is taking advantage of loopholes on the orcs' side.
In such a search scope, although Colin had been in the city for more than half a year, his label of being humanoid and powerful still made him a key target of attention. Fortunately, the second-level creatures did not personally investigate, so Colin was not discovered immediately.
Colin also began to be alert. He felt that the Orc Empire should have sent powerful investigators. In the following days, this was confirmed on Barrick's day off. The Fox Tribe, known as the Orcs' think tank, sent people.
Colin has been in Steelmane City for more than eight months. In fact, he doesn't want to stay here any longer. In the early stage, he killed orcs below level one and didn't have much military merit. Since he can't find a chance to attack the middle-level ones, he will attack the high-level generals.
These days in Steel Mane City, no matter it is day or night, there must be an elite patrol team patrolling the city. The team is led by a first-level pig-headed warrior, and there are also several dogmen from the Dog tribe in the team. Colin went out several times at night but couldn't find an opportunity to take action.
It's not a problem of not being able to defeat them, but a problem of not being able to kill such a group of people silently. Colin's mission has come to a certain deadlock. If he goes back to kill some ordinary orcs, it would of course be easy, but this is not Colin's mission, and Colin doesn't want to become a tool for killing.
What should I do? Is this undercover mission over early?
After spending eight months and gaining such a small amount of military merit, it would be better to go to the front line of the battlefield.
Colin returned to his residence and thought about countermeasures, but no good ideas came to his mind for a while. Unwilling to give up, Colin went out again, trying to find loopholes in the patrol.
It can only be said that where there is a will there is a way. Colin's luck did play a role. When Colin went back in the middle of the night, he inadvertently got a piece of news that the commander of the recruit camp had not been in the recruit camp in recent days. Instead, he lived in the city with the city lord and accompanied the fox clan.
Colin, who learned the news, immediately had a new idea.
