Kapitel 111: Bandits
As she looked at the completely braindead man before her.
But just as Beatrice was about to get rid of him, she suddenly turned her head backward.
Hearing the sound of footsteps stopping only before the door to the dungeon, a look of surprise appeared on Beatrice's face.
"Did something happen?" mumbled Beatrice as she suddenly walked up the flight of stairs which led out of her lab.
What greeted Beatrice after she opened the door was her father, who had a rather excited look on his face.
"So, did something good happen?" asked Beatrice as she looked at Renald, causing his expression to freeze for a brief moment as an embarrassed look appeared on his face.
Renald did not say anything, rather, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket, before handing it to Beatrice.
As she read the things written on the piece of paper, a faint smile appeared on Beatrice's face.
"Yes, that's very convenient," mumbled Beatrice as she fell into thought.
After a few moments of thought, Beatrice decided on the next course of action.
"Find some of your most trustworthy men, who you know will not leak anything about what happened, right now I need to prepare some things," said Beatrice as she looked at her father, a certain glint flashing in her eyes.
"I understand, everything will be ready in at most three days," said Renald before walking away.
After a few moments, Beatrice once again sunk into her laboratory.
...
"A hundred or so bandits huh, If I'm careful with how I use them, then I should be able to continue training for the remaining fifty-three days without having to stop in the slightest," mumbled Beatrice as she looked at all the medical information present inside of her Information Cube.
Just today, Beatrice's father, Renald, had obtained information that a rather notorious group of bandits, the Steel Rats, had been seen not far from his territory.
Ordinarily, although the Steel Rats did not dare directly target the territory of nobles, as they were afraid of retaliation, they were still quite a pest wherever they went.
As such, if the Steel Rats had arrived here not too long ago, Renald would have been worried, but right now, their arrival could only be considered a stroke of good luck.
There was one problem though, how to keep them alive without causing suspicion.
After all, although these bandits could prove as wonderful experimental subjects, they still had to be kept in captivity, as well as regularly restrained using drugs, which could prove rather tedious, especially since it had to be done in secret.
...
Three days later,
Looking at the over one hundred bandits who were sitting around various campfires, a faint smile appeared on the face of Beatrice, who was currently sitting on the branch of a nearby tree.
Although even normal bandits were rather strong for regular humans, after an entire day of travelling, they still had to rest, otherwise, their combat effectiveness would collapse.
Slowly but surely though, at this moment, some of the weaker bandits, either those who were older and out of their prime, or even very young, began dozing off.
Of course, after so much travelling, nobody paid much attention to this fact.
Only a few minutes since the first bandit had begun dozing off, the makeshift camp had become significantly quieter, causing the bandits who were still asleep to become alert.
Sadly though, this did not change their fate, as even the very few bandits, who one way or the other had become knights, still fell asleep.
As such, only ten minutes from the first bandit, every single other bandit had fallen asleep.
At this moment, twenty figures suddenly walked up to the bandit camp.
Looking at the bandit camp, which had completely fallen asleep, Henry couldn't help but take in a deep breath, as he then turned to his men.
"You know what we have to do, take every single human out of here to that location as quickly as possible, do not leave anyone back here, after that, we destroy any traces left of this camp," said Henry as he looked at the over twenty soldiers.
"Understood, sir," said the soldiers as they quietly entered the camp, causing Henry to shake his head.
"Also, make sure to not drink any of the water in here, I'm sure that you don't want your comrades to carry you back home," said Henry, causing chills to appear on the spines of some of the soldiers.
Quickly, the vigorous soldiers took action, and began carrying the bandits towards an old castle several kilometres away, the former estate of the Agnes Clan.
...
As he looked at the old estate around him, which was now filled with men, as well as some women, who were now tied to the floor and walls, Henry couldn't help but shake his head, thinking of the legends surrounding this place.
The estate Henry was standing in right now was the former estate in which the Agnes Family used to reside, over fifty years ago, before the family grew in power.
Back then, after fighting in the Lyonese-Nawenese war, Ronald's father, Ross Agnes, managed to become a Count, beginning the political rise of the Agnes Family, which was formerly a Viscount Family.
Because of their new status, not long after the war, Ross decided to create a new Estate for the Agnes family, one more in line with their current status, as the old one had its origins to back when the Agnes family were mere Barons and was actually quite shabby.
Suddenly, Henry broke out of his thoughts as he noticed a figure standing nearby.
"Ms. Beatrice, everything has gone as planned," said Henry, causing Beatrice to let out a slight nod.
"That's good, you can take your men and leave, I can take care of things here on my own," said Beatrice as she looked at Henry, causing the latter to slightly nod.
"I understand," said Henry before walking out of the old castle.
