Hartel's eyes still appeared somewhat dim as he replied subconsciously, "Okay."
"What news is there from the south recently?" Wu Heng continued.
"Yesterday, we caught a few who came to gather intelligence," Hartel said. "After the Skeleton Mage performed the questioning of the dead, we learned they were an investigation team from the Yeko Kingdom, sent to investigate why a transport team hadn't returned."
The investigators had come.
"Did you kill them all?"
"We killed those we found. We're not sure if there were others who investigated."
"Any other intelligence?"
Hartel continued, "The corpses also mentioned that the military received orders from above to retract their formations, trying to avoid some wars recently."
The Second Prince's army starting to keep a low profile?
They probably also received the news about the association investigation team.
"Any intelligence on the Second Prince?"
"No related intelligence."
