When Viscount Sosk received the news that the New Flyer's Magic Airship had suddenly appeared, he immediately understood that the New Flyer was definitely looking for trouble this time.
The normal citizens didn't know the reason, but as the mayor of Larur Town, he was very clear that because the New Flyer's transport convoy had been wiped out in the Setting Sun Mountains without a single survivor, the New Flyer was putting a lot of pressure on the Kandla Empire.
Actually, if it was a normal company or a company from another country that had an accident in the Kandla Empire, the Kandla Empire would at most give a perfunctory response and wouldn't care at all.
But the New Flyer wasn't a normal company.
Even if the relationship between the Kandla Empire and the New Flyer was a bit awkward, or even hostile, in the past two years, because the New Flyer's military magic machines had become more and more powerful, the Kandla Empire had no choice but to face the New Flyer and take the initiative to cooperate with the New Flyer.
After cooperating, the Kandla Empire found that the importance of the New Flyer wasn't just in terms of military magic machines. In terms of civilian magic machines other than the military magic machines, the various inventions of the New Flyer were even more important, helping the Kandla Empire solve many important problems.
So as time passed, even the most stubborn southern province's governor Duke Windsor who opposed the Frestech Chamber of Commerce the most was forced to put down his face and secretly cooperate with the Frestech Chamber of Commerce.
The entire Kandla Empire realized the benefits that the New Flyer brought to the empire, so there was more and more demand for cooperation between the empire and the New Flyer.
When something happened to the New Flyer's caravan in the Setting Sun Mountains, the New Flyer immediately put pressure on the Kandla Empire, with the most direct pressure falling on Viscount Sosk.
However, Viscount Sosk didn't know much about the situation of the bandits in the Setting Sun Mountain Range. He didn't have any clues about the attack on the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's caravan, so it was impossible for him to give an answer in a short period of time.
After a long time, the upper echelons of the empire also knew about the situation, so they didn't force Viscount Sosk and gave the New Flyer a perfunctory explanation.
It's said that in order to satisfy the New Flyer, the upper echelons of the empire even gave them preferential conditions.
Just based on this, it could be seen how much importance the Kandla Empire placed on the New Flyer.
But the New Flyer refused to agree, insisting on the investigation results of the Kandla Empire.
The New Flyer's strong attitude finally angered some of the upper echelons of the empire, so both sides parted on bad terms.
Viscount Sosk thought that this matter would end here because whether it was the Kandla Empire or the New Flyer, they clearly needed to cooperate with the other side. A small problem like this wouldn't stop their cooperation.
Although the New Flyer had suffered a loss this time, they could only accept it in the end. After all, the Kandla Empire was one of the two empires above the Sines, so for any company, they weren't willing to give up this market.
However, Viscount Sosk had finally escaped from this matter and had only relaxed for a few days when he received the shocking news that the New Flyer's Magic Airship was flying over!
Viscount Sosk was certain that he didn't receive any notice about this ahead of time. This meant that the New Flyer didn't apply to the Kandla Empire for this operation at all and acted on their own!
For a company from another country like the New Flyer to send people into the Kandla Empire's territory was a serious crime, it wasn't something that the Kandla Empire could tolerate at all.
But Viscount Sosk was very clear that this matter couldn't be blown up, otherwise the weak cooperation between the New Flyer and the Kandla Empire might collapse.
It could be imagined what kind of influence this would have on the Kandla Empire, it wasn't something a small viscount like him could take on.
So even if he had sent all his soldiers over as soon as he received the news, he didn't have any plans to make a move at all.
First, it was because he didn't dare take the responsibility of exchanging fire. Second, he definitely couldn't beat them … …
Just a few hundred soldiers, it was impossible for them to be a match for the New Flyer's guards who were equipped with the most advanced military magic machines, this was something that Viscount Sosk was very clear on.
When he saw the fierce looking Magic Cannons on the ground, he was even more certain of this.
So his goal was to have a peaceful discussion.
But when he saw the person who came out of the New Flyer, he instantly cut off half of this thought.
Because this person ….. wasn't a human, but rather an elf.
All the humans on the Sines, or rather all the races knew that the elves were the most stubborn race on the continent, there was no other race that could compare.
If the commander sent by the New Flyer for this strange mission was a human, Viscount Sosk would have a hundred methods to convince them to sit down and talk. But the commander this time was an elf, so his hundred methods wouldn't work at all.
Viscount Sosk squeezed out a smile as he watched the male elf wearing the uniform of the New Flyer's guards come over. He gave a cough and deliberately said in a very serious voice, "Are you the New Flyer's guards?
Why did you suddenly come here? "
He didn't mention anything about "illegally entering the country" or "privately carrying weapons" at all.
The male elf looked over Viscount Sosk and didn't plan on replying at all. He coldly said, "Human, this matter isn't related to you. I hope that you can immediately leave with your subordinates."
Viscount Sosk took a deep breath. He thought that this elf in front of him really was the same as the elves in the legends, he didn't give him a chance to talk at all.
After pausing, Viscount Sosk asked with a serious look, "Your actions this time, were you ordered by Chairman Xu?"
The male elf was still expressionless. "This has nothing to do with you.
Human, leave immediately. This is my last warning. "
Viscount Sosk's expression froze. After taking a deep breath, he quickly said, "No matter what, I have to remind you.
You are now in the territory of the Kandla Empire. If you act rashly, as an official of the empire, I have to respond.
Although my subordinates and I might not be a match for you, this is my duty.
Also, all of your actions are within the empire's control, so please consider carefully. "
The male elf coldly stared at Viscount Sosk for a while before speaking again.
"We are here on the chairman's orders to exterminate bandits. This has nothing to do with you."
Seeing that the other party was finally willing to negotiate, Viscount Sosk let out a sigh of relief.
"You're here to investigate the robbery of your merchant caravan?"
"Yes." The male elf nodded.
"The chairman said that since the Kandla Empire can't solve this problem, the New Flyer will solve it ourselves."
Viscount Sosk gave a bitter laugh in his heart. It wasn't that the empire didn't want to solve this problem, but rather that the empire couldn't … …
The Setting Sun Mountain Range was just too complicated and there were many bandits, so they couldn't obtain enough information at all.
The only information they could use was the agricultural magic machines that had been stolen by the bandits.
But it was like these agricultural magic machines had disappeared and there weren't any clues at all, which really was something that no one would have expected.
Thinking of this, Viscount Sosk was stunned.
This was because he suddenly remembered that the male elf had said "exterminate bandits" and not "search for bandits" … …
Viscount Sosk's heart skipped a beat as he asked in a voice filled with disbelief, "Could it be that you've grasped the whereabouts of the bandits?"
The male elf looked at Viscount Sosk for a while, as if he was considering if he should tell him this information or not.
After a while, he nodded, "Yes, we've already grasped the precise location of the bandits. This time we came to exterminate them."
"That is impossible!" Viscount Sosk couldn't help shouting.
If this male elf said that he had grasped the whereabouts of the bandits, he could barely believe it. But he actually said that he had grasped the precise location of the bandits, this really was too unbelievable.
If nothing unexpected happened, the bandits should still be in the Setting Sun Mountain Range. But the Setting Sun Mountain Range was this big and the terrain was this complicated. He had searched the mountains with the elites sent by the governor's manor before, but they didn't find any clues. How could the New Flyer's guards have grasped the situation?
Of course, he didn't rule out the possibility that the New Flyer had some special methods. For example, they had placed some special magic runes on the agricultural magic machines.
However, this was even more shocking.
Why did the New Flyer do this?
It had to be known that the agricultural magic machines were sent to the northeast province, so what was the goal of the New Flyer in doing this?
Thinking of the deeper meaning behind this, Viscount Sosk couldn't help falling into silence.
At this time, there was a beeping sound that came from the male elf.
Viscount Sosk looked at him in surprise as he saw him raise his right hand. There was a square metal box in his hand and he spoke into the metal box.
"Boat number three, what have you found?"
"Boat number three reports that the target is still in the same valley as last time, they haven't moved."
"Very good, what is the situation around them?"
"According to our observations, there are no random people around the valley."
"Alright, now report the position and distance."
"According to the results, the target is at ten o 'clock and six degrees to the north. The distance is between 3.7 and 3.9 kilometers."
"Received.
Continue observing. If there are any abnormalities, report back immediately. "
"Understood."
Viscount Sosk watched the male elf end the call in a daze before turning to give an order. The ten Magic Cannons on the ground all turned and pointed to the northwest.
"You ….. How are you planning on exterminating the bandits?"
The male elf ignored Viscount Sosk's question and after being silent for a bit, he suddenly raised his right hand and said in a soft voice, "Attack."
The ten Magic Cannons released dazzling magic light at the same time before ten flames came out of the Magic Cannons, disappearing into the sky to the northwest.
Viscount Sosk watched the light disappear into the Setting Sun Mountains in a daze. After being stunned for a bit, an incomparably strong light exploded from the Setting Sun Mountains in the distance, just like the sun suddenly rising.
After a while, there were giant explosions that sounded like thunder that even the ground under their feet began to tremble.
Viscount Sosk, Morey, and their subordinates were all stunned as they looked at the Setting Sun Mountains in the distance. They were incomparably shocked to find that with the appearance of the light, the mountains covered in the light suddenly melted and a layer was cut off.
