Chapter 94 Worth Millions
"Sir, the other party didn't robbed too much, but it was destroyed a lot. It was estimated that the loss was more than one million gold coins!" A subordinate came to Hege seriously and respectfully to salute and reported the loss.
Hege's eyes flashed, and his face was still changing, muttering to himself: "One million gold coins, hehe, I want to know who did it."
As he said that, his steps were moving, his calm and gloomy demeanor was daunting, and what was even more frightening was that he felt cold and extremely tough as steel. If he were to be put in modern times, he would undoubtedly become an iron-fisted figure.
When he came to his nephew, the murderous intent in Hege's eyes turned into kindness. He touched his nephew's pale face and shouted sternly: "At any cost, we must save Loco!"
A handsome middle-aged man squatting in front of Loco stood up, and grief in his eyes flowed out: "Brother, how can you let Loco do this work? Now he has become like this, I..."
Heg waved his hand fiercely, looked at his younger brother calmly and said, "Cobb, it was Loco who asked him to stay. You refused to help me, and Loco helped me the same. No one can hurt our Douglas family without paying the price. I will definitely catch the murderer!" Cobb # Douglas was silent, looking at his brother, his eyes full of sorrow.
His eyes stayed on Cobb for a moment, and Heg couldn't help but shake his head gently. Although he and Cobb were brothers, in the eyes of the outside world, Cobb was just an incompetent guy who was only good at aristocratic life. In fact, Heg knew that Cobb was not without talent, but was just unwilling to do things for the family.
He turned around and left the theater and asked in a deep voice: "The waste from the security department can't do anything. Have our people spread it? Let them find each other's whereabouts as soon as possible!"
The confidant who followed Hege quickly looked around and whispered: "Sir, do you want to send 'them' to..."
Hege's pace was so steady that it seemed that he would never be confused by anything, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes: "No, they cannot be exposed, otherwise they will definitely attract the attention of those who are interested. If unnecessary trouble is caused, it will ruin my big event."
In the corridor, a thin middle-aged magician frowned and greeted him: "Sir, no clues were found. There must be a master who is proficient in tracking magic among the other party, and wiped out all the traces!"
"Vin..." Hege's expression moved, and he remembered that among the mercenary group of Dao#Gran, there was a master master who tracked magic, and Dao#Gran had powerful force. Thinking of this, he asked in a deep voice: "Who can you lose all the traces of your peers?"
Viin is a master of spiritual tracking magic. However, as a sorcerer, the gap between him and Hyde's strength is obvious. He pondered for a moment and quickly gave the answer: "Among the people I know, Quinns #Hed, Oster #Kerry... and more than ten people can do it without me being noticed!"
Quinns #Hed...Hedge's eyes gradually lit up. There are only three of these ten people in the imperial capital. One of them is a palace sorcerer, the other is working for the Schroeder family, and the other is Hyde!
However, when he thought of Cai Dao and Hyde, he immediately thought that Dao#Gran's fighting spirit was invisible and colorless, while today's robber was red fighting spirit, which seemed to have some contradiction. After thinking for a moment, he quickly made a decision: "Send someone to monitor Dao#Gran and Quinns#Hed!"
His subordinates took the order and left, but Hege fell into deep thought. He suspected that the robbery was not simple, and it was probably a conspiracy against the Douglas family. Otherwise, why did the robbers give up some more expensive items, such as the painting of Gaoba, worth at least 100,000. Moreover, the robbers not only robbed some auction items, but also deliberately destroyed some - if he knew that Cai Dao had just no interest and pushed them away, he would definitely go crazy.
He felt that this was probably because the political opponents were deliberately setting up traps, and the most likely was of course the Cage family that was fighting in the empire. Like the Douglas family, the Cage family is a family with a very long history. After hundreds of years of ups and downs, they finally gained a prominent position decades ago, just like the Douglas family. He served as the Minister of Finance in the Voda Empire, and the parents of the Cage family served as the Minister of Military Affairs in the empire. They are the two most prominent families in the current Voda regime.
However, he was obviously wrong. Maybe the Cage family really wanted to eradicate the Douglas family, but this time they really didn't do it. If Cai Dao knew that the simple Taoism of the Qingniu Sect could have such an effect, he would have misled Hegemony by destroying the auction items by himself.
No matter how hard Vein works, it is useless. The gap in strength between him and Hyde cannot be easily narrowed. When the strength is equal, it is usually difficult to capture traces, and more importantly, he and Hyde have a gap in strength.
On that night, the Douglas family's subordinates jumped up and down the city, but did not get any clues. Cai Dao, who had experience in the theft or robbery, did a very good job in this regard, almost preventing possible clues from being investigated by the other party.
When the detailed loss report was obtained, Hegel's deep personality could not help but change his color. During this night, the Douglas family lost 1.3 million gold coins, and could even support a huge army, which was equivalent to one-sixth of the tax revenue of York's annual country. Such a huge loss, even if the Douglas family had a strong foundation, was not easy to bear.
The auction items of the Douglas family were robbed in an unprecedented way, and the Voda Empire was shocked. With the strength of the Douglas family, they were even robbed without many opponents. The powerful strength shown by the mysterious man made the emperor angry. If even the Douglas family could be easily attacked, what about the palace?
Hyde and Cai Dao became the primary target of doubt, and everyone suspected them at the first time. However, the "red fighting spirit" that Cai Dao showed in the process quickly diverted everyone's attention, and Hyde's suspicion became much smaller.
However, we cannot help but admit that Cai Dao is indeed very capable of causing trouble, and his ability to make small things a sensation is even more amazing. From Perry, to Mecca, and finally to Voda, he went all the way, and everywhere he went, he was sensational because of what he did. I wonder what kind of big things would break out where he was going next time.
The next day at the imperial customs meeting, the unlucky security chief was furious and removed from his post by Emperor Kaya. This was the second security chief implicated by Cai Dao. Hege became the target of humiliation for the military minister. Although he received the emperor's private comfort, Hege was still deeply angry about it.
Is there any greater shame than this? My nephew was seriously injured, lost over one million yuan, and lost many masters. This is the worst thing the emperor has encountered in the past twenty years, and its influence is far greater than that of Cai Dao's whistle to the sky a few days ago.
No matter what the idea was, Emperor Kaya ordered the Security Department and the City Guard to arrest the mysterious looters nationwide. Of course, the wanted orders issued by the emperor are usually very concerned by mercenaries. Once the wanted mission can be completed, there will be a chance to enter the army or officialdom, which is what everyone hopes.
After returning home, Hege was not as angry as at the government meeting. He was deeply moved to his emotions. After pondering for a long time, the emperor issued a wanted order and seemed to be helping him, but this forced Hege at least to make consistent actions on the surface, so he decided: "Release a mercenary mission!"
"Hage, maybe you shouldn't have made things bigger, now it's embarrassing us!" Cobb didn't want the family to get involved in something that shouldn't be interfered with, and he didn't like his brother's style and means of doing things. After hearing the news, he immediately expressed his objection.
"Oh, then what do you think I should do?" Hege stared at his younger brother coldly, sarcastically: "Like like you, Loko almost died and didn't want to take revenge. He just wanted to hide and lick the wound? I'm not you, Cobb, you are too cowardly, so the parents are me, not you!"
Perhaps this was too heavy, Cobb's face changed several times, and finally suppressed his anger: "Hege, I just don't want to see you drag your family into the quagmire. In what you do, I can't even see the future of the family. Yes, I'm very cowardly, but I won't trap the family in the Jedi!"
Heg's face darkened and stared at Cobb coldly: "You may not like me, but don't forget that I am your brother, and we are all children of the Douglas family. Don't forget that Loco believes in me, not the cowardly and ineffective you. Everything I do now is for the family!"
Cobb looked at Hege with sympathy and sorrow: "You are helpless..."
At this moment, Cai Dao was fulfilling the conditions negotiated with the emperor in the Voda Palace Magic Academy, and explaining non-fixed thunder and lightning magic and concentrated formations to the holy warlocks.
To be honest, Cai Dao is definitely happy to trade non-fixed thunder magic and enrichment formations that do not exist. Even Qingniu couldn't help but praise his ability to deceive people. However, it would be too embarrassing to ask Cai Dao to tell these principles of non-existence in front of the holy warlocks.
For this reason, he had to study with Qingniu for a night before finally developing the magic principle that could be evaded. Now, he faced the thirsty saints who were hungry in the magic principle. With the attention of several eyes, he began to tell...
