People are in the original god, telling a book

Chapter 396 Snow White and Dust

This is not the first day that Di Luke has arrived at the snow mountain, or he has already come to this snow mountain alone when he recalled all the spies back to Chenxi Winery.

When he first came to this snow-capped mountain, Di Luke did find many unusual things.

For example, more violent monsters, unusual low temperature, and completely changed terrain, etc., are generally within the range that can be handled, so it is not particularly valuable information.

However, the beginning of many major events are some trivial clues, so Di Luke still did not take it lightly, and investigated these things step by step very cautiously.

Until he came to the ice lake, he saw the remnants of the ice element formation, and the eye-catching trace of blood on the snow.

That formation is definitely not something that ordinary people can create, and the power contained in it is very subtle.

And if there is blood, it proves that someone has been injured in this place.Although judging from the bloodstains, the injury should not be very serious, but at least it can be seen that conflicts broke out here, and the degree of conflicts is not low.

The identities of the conflicting parties have not yet been determined, but simple speculation can be made.

At present, the forces that exist on the surface of Longji Snow Mountain include the West Wind Knights, the Adventurers Association, and the official assistance provided by Liyue.

Among the great adventurers in the Adventurers Association, Quinteros has the God's Eye of Ice attribute, but he has no reason to fight other people in this place, and even if he does, he shouldn't leave this ice elemental formation behind. down.

Um.
With the current clues alone, it is still impossible to deduce the real person, but around the lake, he still found some faint traces, which spread to another direction step by step.

This kind of trace is very weak, and it seems that the person who was injured and escaped has excellent anti-reconnaissance ability, but perhaps because of her anxious walking, she still left some traces.

Following these subtle changes, Diluc searched all the way, and finally found Kong, Paimon and Yula at the entrance of the cave.However, he did not choose to come forward immediately, but carefully observed his surroundings and listened to their conversation by the way.

The person being attacked was Yura, but the attacker was a person who also surprised Diluc.

The person who suspected of attacking him at Chenxi Winery shortly after losing contact with him—Abedo.

Frankly speaking, when he heard the name Abedo, Di Luque was not shocked, he was just a little surprised by this matter.

Thinking about it carefully, the most abnormal behavior recently is the chief alchemist.The method of destroying his information at Chenxi Winery can only be done by an alchemist.

Then Diluc heard Paimon talk about the two previous avalanches.

Regarding the cause and effect of the first avalanche, the Knights have already made a general investigation.It was roughly because the fools wanted to cover up their actions, which triggered an avalanche to deceive others, but it was a pity that the scale of the avalanche exceeded their expectations, so they were also left in it.

And the second time, as Yura said, the Knights haven't come up with any results yet.

But if you think about it carefully, the second avalanche actually has many similarities with the first avalanche.

First of all, they are all sudden, and there have been no signs before, so natural causes can be directly ruled out.Secondly, after the avalanche, there were some strange news in the snow mountain, including but not limited to monsters, low temperature, crazy animals and so on.

If there is any difference, it may be that the scale of the second avalanche is much larger than the first, so that the Knights have to pay attention to it, and to a certain extent, it has attracted the attention of the entire Mond.

Thinking about it now, maybe this is also a means of diverting attention
When everyone turns their attention to the snow-capped mountains, the person who caused the avalanche may be able to do something that is usually difficult to do.

Including entering the Zephyr Knights to steal alchemy equipment and attacking the Dawn Winery.
These clues all pointed to Abedo, and they were extremely clear, and it was because it was so clear that Di Luke became suspicious.

Is this a little too deliberate?
Abedo is a smart man. If he really did all this, then he has no reason to be so straightforward.

But it's meaningless to discuss these now, because Yula has clearly seen Abedo, and he didn't hesitate at all when he was attacked by Abedo.

Therefore, Di Luke decided not to hide his whereabouts anymore, and chose to come out directly to reconcile with these three people.

The fact that the owner of Chenxi Winery came to Longji Snow Mountain, except for the winery's steward and Kaiya, no one else should know about it - of course, there must be three more people who know about it now.

"Master Diluc? Why are you here? No, no, how did you find this place?"

Seeing this famous lord, Paimon subconsciously stuttered, but she did not forget to ask the key question.

"I found some traces outside, so I followed along all the way, so I shouldn't have disturbed you?"

Di Luke still had that indifferent expression, and his tone was as calm as ever. Perhaps it was this calmness that dispelled the panic in Paimon's heart.

"It seems that I was a little more anxious when I escaped."

After the initial surprise, Yula also realized that it was not surprising that Diluc could find traces of her.

And compared to this, Yura cares more about another point.

".But what do you mean by [covering people's eyes and ears] just now?"

Diluque seemed to have overheard their previous conversation and gave his answer as soon as he emerged.

The massive second avalanche is actually deceiving people?

"You should all know that the alchemy laboratory of the Knights of the West Wind was stolen, and most of the alchemy instruments have been stolen."

Hearing that, Di Luque did not answer this question directly, but talked about another matter.

"Yes, I know. But what does this have to do with snow mountains?"

Kong, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said that he knew about this before entering Longji Snow Mountain, but what does the theft in Mond City have to do with the Snow Mountain?
"Only from this point of view, it really doesn't matter."

Hearing Kong's words, Di Luke just shook his head, and then continued: "But the alchemy laboratory is in charge of Abedo, and he is also the person who is most familiar with this place. The guy who stole the alchemy equipment did not alarm any personnel during the whole process. It is enough to show that the thief is also very familiar with the structure of the laboratory."

Hearing this, Kong subconsciously looked at Paimon, and Paimon also looked at Kong, both of them could see the surprise in the other's eyes.

The alchemy laboratory was stolen by Abedo
Abedo attacked Yula not long ago
Reminiscent of what Di Luke said just now when he appeared.
Could it be that Abedo was the one who artificially created the second avalanche?
