Chapter 370

The king studied Frodo carefully: "Which squad do you belong to?"

Generally, mature adventurers will have a fixed team. After all, cooperation among acquaintances will be better.

Frodo: "Our captain went back to report, leaving the two of us behind. You...didn't you see him?"

Wang recalled the adventurer who reported to him what had happened in the camp: "Is there a scar on your chin?"

"Ah," Frodo shook his head, "Our team was encouraged by a man named Scar Hawke to come together to see if there is any work here. He should be the one you saw."

Sam snorted unconvinced: "Captain, this loser, must have given all the credit to Hawke."

Wang shook his head. He left all communication with adventurers to Rosalie, and he was unaware of these situations.

It seems that it is necessary to take a closer look at the quality of the adventurers gathered on the floating island in the future, and try to promote talented people from among them.For example, this Frodo seems to be ready for use.

Wang made a quick decision and said: "You are now a member of the Salvation Army - well, we haven't decided what to call it yet. It may be the Salvation Alliance Army. In short, you are now a member of the reconnaissance team. You will be directly responsible to me from now on."

After saying this, Wang put the petals in his hand in front of Xiaobai's nose.

"Well, it's true that there are no flowers with such a smell nearby," Xiaobai muttered. "A more detailed analysis must be given to the crow in the green field."

Wang: "Can you first tell me if you can detect this smell in the air?"

"It's not a big deal. That person must have used some means to hide his scent. If it weren't for this petal, I guess there would be nothing he could do. But with the petals, that's another story."

Xiaobai said and started running.

Wang quickly put the petals into his dimensional bag and held Xiaobai's hair steady.

Frodo from Leon and Sam from Goldshire looked at each other and immediately followed Xiaobai's footsteps.

Now Xiaobai is still in human mode, so he doesn't run too fast. He can catch up with the footsteps of two adults.

Xiaobai asked while running: "If we start tracking like this, will there be any problems? What if we are ambushed..."

Wang took out the sound transmission stone and held down the magic circle on it.

Soon Lily's voice came from the sound stone: "Hello? Something happened?"

"No, the wanderers at the scene reported that a wanderer entered the camp before we found it. He also specifically searched for the documents of the camp headquarters, but did not take the belongings in the same camp."

Lily: "It's very strange. But you shouldn't chase it alone. I will send someone to find you right now."

Wang: "Remember to send someone to take over the general's camp. There is no one there now."

"I know. Just be careful and just keep the sound stone connected, right?"

"Don't be like this. It's weird to take risks with a sounding stone. You even need one hand to cast a spell. In this way, I will contact you in an hour. If there is no contact and you can't call me, something has happened."

"Okay. Then I'll see you in an hour."

After cutting off the sound stone, Xiaobai said: "She doesn't seem to be worried about you at all."

Wang: "Because I am reliable, and no one knows this better than her."

Xiaobai: "Really? Isn't it because you are the darling of fate? Your eyelids will jump when you are in danger, right?"

The two people following behind looked at each other.

Sam said something, and Frodo waved his hand, then raised his index finger to make a "shh" gesture.

Xiaobai: "I heard you talking about the relationship between twitching eyelids and reliability. Don't think we are joking. His twitching eyelids have saved us from danger several times. He can be called a danger warning machine."

Wang: "It's okay, we just happened to bump into it." As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaobai stopped and said, "Shh, there's a strange smell ahead."

Frodo: "I'll go up first to explore the way."

Sam from Goldshire held him back: "No, I'm a rogue, I'll go up first."

Frodo looked at Sam: "Are you actually a rogue? I thought it was the merchant who accompanied us."

"I'm very good at dismantling traps and detecting." As he spoke, Sam put down the bag he was carrying and groped past Xiaobai and Wang.

He pushed aside the plants blocking his way and crept forward, but soon his figure was swallowed up by the dense forest.

Xiaobai glanced at Frodo: "Don't worry, I will definitely hear what happens to him, look at my big ears."

She twitched her ears proudly.

Wang: "Have you realized that now that I'm riding on your neck, the turning of your ears will rub against me."

"Is it possible? No, I don't feel any strange feeling on the back of my head?"

Wang: "I'm talking about my hands. Your ears feel itchy when you rub them against me!"

At this time, Sam's voice came from the front: "There is a small camp here. It seems that only one person lives here. The camp has been tidied up. I can't see any traces. I need Flodo to come!"

Frodo immediately parted the plants and strode forward.

Xiaobai followed immediately.

Behind the grass was a small camp. Xiaobai pointed to the campfire that had been extinguished for a long time and said, "The strange smell comes from there."

Frodo knelt down and fiddled with the bonfire: "This firewood is not a product of the rain forest. The nearest source of this smokeless firewood is thousands of kilometers away."

Xiaobai: "Is this spy so poor? He doesn't even have a dimensional bag. He can just stuff everything into the dimensional bag and take it away."

Wang: "The first possibility is that he deliberately showed it to us. The second possibility is that he must leave immediately, otherwise he will be discovered by someone."

"I think it's the second one," Frodo said. "He just left not long ago, and he should have gone to report the mutiny of the ambush."

Wang: "Are you sure we are the first ones to come?"

"I'm sure." Frodo nodded. Suddenly he saw something in the grass on the ground, so he knelt down and picked it up. "Wait a minute, there are flowers like that here!"

Xiaobai stretched out his hand directly: "Show me!"

Frodo handed the petals to Xiaobai without saying a word.

"Yeah, the same taste."

Wang: "That's not right. Picking up one petal may be due to good luck. Picking up two petals in a row happened to be at a critical time like discovering the camp. Don't you think it's a coincidence?"

Frodo nodded: "Yes. But...the petals are so inconspicuous, it's hard to imagine that they were left on purpose."

"No," Wang shook his head, "Is the first petal placed in a very obvious place? I don't think so?"

Frodo: "What do you mean?"

"This is a screening mechanism. If you can't find the petals, the person will run away. The second clue is reserved for the 'detailed and keen scouts' who can find the first clue. Do you understand? The first one The cues themselves are the screening mechanism.”

Frodo: "Then why? To mislead us? Or to set up an ambush?"

Wang did not answer, but took out the sound stone: "Anyway, we have to call for reinforcements, and then we will see what we say."
