() The outline of Longyan Fortress became clearer and clearer, and Linde let out a long sigh of relief. He didn't have to worry about the orcs here.He tilted his head to glance at Link, and didn't respond to a word he spoke to him along the way, with a sullen face and didn't know what he was thinking.

It happened that Elwin was training with the newcomers, and Linde directly pointed the businessman in front of the half-elf.

Hearing that the exchange of food was a major event that was tantamount to collaborating with the enemy, Erwin immediately signaled to keep quiet and asked them to stand by on the spot, before going to the regiment leader for instructions.

Link paced back and forth. On the way back, he thought a lot. From the possibility of orcs digging tunnels, to Gonzales and Su Wu who were urgently transferred to the north, he always felt that there was a connection between the two.

There is no such thing as such a coincidence in the world. The pictures he saw in the prophecy linger in Link's mind for a long time, and his anxiety is like a net that wraps him tightly, tightening it every time he thinks about it.

No, instead of worrying here, I'd better get back to reality and ask Su Wu directly.

"Where are you going? Didn't you tell us to wait here?"

"You report to the head, I'm in a hurry."

Seeing Link running into the fortress without looking back, Linde secretly rejoiced, hey~ The first credit for catching the spy belongs to me.

Go back to the cubicle and lock the door, put the water and food on the bed, Link told Feng Falcon that he would sleep for one to two days in a row due to his physical condition, during this period he must ensure that no one gets close to him, otherwise there will be life Danger.He knew that now was not the time to go offline, but he had an ominous premonition in his heart urging, hurry up, hurry up, if it is too late, it will be too late.

Back to reality, it was already 1 o'clock in the evening. Link dialed Su Wu's cell phone, praying in his heart that he must wake up.

"Calling at this time, what urgent matter happened at Longyan Fort?"

The phone was connected, but Link didn't know what to ask first.

"Hey?"

"Gonzalez is a bit weird..." Link decided to ask the Spaniard first what was going on?Those words before leaving were almost like confessing his last words, which made people feel very uncomfortable.

"I noticed it too. Recently, he has been playing games almost all day, which is abnormal. He is a very self-disciplined person, and his life and rest are also very regular. What kind of contradiction, you know that foreigners are very concerned about personal privacy, so I don't want to ask too much."

While Gonzalez has been a little eccentric lately, he's generally within the normal range.Su Wu is even more worried about his own safety. His rank is only an expert. It is not a good phenomenon to suddenly skip the master and directly enter the peak-level map.

"The log displayed on the computer is still assisting the defense of Longyan Fortress, there is no change to go to the north at all."

"The main mission hasn't changed?" Link caught a key word.Not to mention the main line, even some verbal promises to others will be noted in detail in the diary, which is too abnormal.Even if Shuanghan sees through my fraudulent death, it should be targeting me, and the two of them have done nothing to attract its attention...

"what!"

Link suddenly yelled, startling Su Wu.

"I got it! I got it! It's because of me that Shuang Han wants to deal with you."

Su Wu resolutely denied it, "Impossible! Frost and Cold may be murderous because of your profession, but it doesn't care about a small character like me at all. Link, I'm just an elementalist, you know the difference between an expert and a legend ?"

"Listen to me, I didn't mean to exaggerate the facts. The Fate Weaver cannot be predicted by the prophecy, but it doesn't mean that it has no other channels of news. We have all appeared in River Valley Town, and at least half of the town's people are I have personally witnessed the three of us entering and exiting the Adventurer's Guild together." Link could not convince Su Wu, he would never believe that Frost and Cold, who is the big boss of the plot, would target two players who were not a threat to him.

"No, no, no, you are completely unaware of the seriousness of the matter. Frost will not let anyone go...I mean it will not allow any existence that threatens it." Link was a little incoherent with excitement.

"But you've lied to your death. There are so many players in the game, why did he target the two of us?"

"It is working hard to eliminate traces of its past, so that no one will know where its phylactery is. Yes, I am cheating my death now, but you have contacted me, this is the reason! There are so many people in Longyan Castle, why? Why did you want to send the two of you north by name? Especially you, why are you not the leader of the master-level mage, but let you go? It really has its eyes on you. Shuanghan can kill two peaks before transforming into a lich A master of the lower level can easily deal with you. Quickly find a way to get out of the team, it will be too late when you get to the north, you don’t want to die.”

Su Wu was moved by Link, of course he didn't want to die, but the military order is nothing to say, unless Commander Alex ordered them to return, otherwise he would not only be called a deserter if he escaped halfway, but also lose his main talent because he left the main line. Then it will be harder for them to protect themselves.

If it can be proved that the orcs dig underground tunnels, it will be enough reason for the commander to recall the troops sent to the north.Link asked Su Wu to find a way to slow down the marching speed, and he had a way to get the commander to take back the transfer order.

After hanging up the phone, Link hurriedly fell asleep regardless of his hungry stomach growling.Fortunately, the time of the call made up for it, and only a few hours had passed in the illusion. He jumped up from the stone bed, went straight to Dante's furnace, and asked the old dwarf whether there were dwarves living in the nearby underground.

"There is a city near Nax, with a small population, a few thousand, why ask this?"

Nax!By the way, this is connected.

Link told Dante that Gonzalez was in danger and that the commander had to call back the two corps that had gone north to support them.

The old dwarf shook his head. Longyan Fort already knew that Nax was secretly trading food with the orcs, because this would indeed relieve the orcs from intruding, so the commander just turned a blind eye.

"If Gonzalez is not single, even Longyan Fortress can't protect itself!" Link said that he saw orcs enslaving dwarves to dig underground through divine knowledge.

"It's impossible to bypass Longyan Castle." Dante still shook his head, "There is the largest night elf city in the southwest near Eden City. Invading the night elf territory without authorization is tantamount to starting another war, even if they are both The chaotic camp. Besides, excavating near Longyan Fortress, how could we not notice such a big movement? We have already considered this at the construction site. Do you know how much manpower and labor it takes to dig a tunnel leading directly to the inland? Time? It took us 20 years to build this underground fortress. After all, Nax is the territory of Hohenheim. Even if the lord would make a private deal with the orcs for the sake of border stability, he would never treat them as bringing the orcs into the territory. Lu's traitor. Moreover, even if the orcs successfully bypassed Longyan Fort, the army here is still there, and this battle is still going to be fought. Wouldn't digging tunnels become meaningless."

Link suddenly realized that there was something wrong with his previous deduction.That's right, it's labor-intensive and time-consuming, even if you successfully enter the inland, you still have to fight, but... what if the purpose of the orcs is not to bypass Longyan Castle?Just digging down to the bottom of the fortress and causing some explosion-like vibrations can destroy this insurmountable barrier.

"It's not impossible he said, Master Dante." The closed door was suddenly pushed open, and Claudia, the leader of the female scouts, walked in, followed by the half-elf Alwin, Dante and Link completely Didn't realize they were hiding outside and eavesdropping.

"I participated in the whole design and construction of the fortress. There are dedicated pipelines at the bottom of the fortress to detect underground movements. Master Bray also personally installed a perpetual monitoring device. This is why the fortress can stand for hundreds of years. "Dan Te was confident in the dwarf's skill.

Claudia glanced at Link, "What the gods saw was the absolute truth, and it was the message sent by the gods to the messenger. Do you suspect that he is lying?"

"No, I just..."

"Also, you seem to have forgotten the ability of the God of Shadows."

Dante's face changed: "Conspiracy enchantment!" The more evil, the less likely it is to be noticed by the target, which is Malik's priesthood ability.

"That's right, as long as he participates, even gods will be deceived." Claudia nodded, "Those monitoring spells will be in vain. It has been too long since the last war, which is beneficial to us." The hard-won peace is blasphemy to the orcs who believe in the god of war."

While Dante was arguing with Claudia, Link walked up to the half-elf and asked him why he revealed his identity, not because he had promised not to tell it.

"The commander was furious, saying that he wanted to severely punish the scout who kidnapped and framed the Nax businessman. The scout who went out with you on the mission has been locked up. As for the businessman, he was arrested by Nax City before dinner. The envoy who came took you away. I was worried about your safety, so I had to confess your identity to the head of the regiment..." Alwin looked helpless, and he had no choice.It would be dangerous if Link was really sent to the confinement room. In addition to some mercenaries who made mistakes, there were also captured desperadoes.

"These questions are all speculation!" Dante waved his arms anxiously, "Without real evidence, we can't convince the commander."

"I'll prove it to him." As soon as he said this, everyone's attention was focused on Link. He said that he would go deep into the ground, find evidence of the orcs digging tunnels, and stop them.

"But the Son of Nature is not..." Now it is Dante's turn to be surprised. It is the iron law of the Son of Nature not to intervene in politics and the war between species. Back then, Belfast lost its land because it helped humans fight the orcs. The identity of the guardian of the pillar.Does Link have to make the same choice?

Alwin also expressed the same worry, the newly born Chosen Cannot be depraved because of this.

"You don't have to worry about this, the gods have allowed this matter from the very beginning." Link firmly believed that this was the instruction of the gods of nature, otherwise he would never have seen the scene of orcs enslaving dwarfs digging tunnels through the gods.

Claudia thinks it is too dangerous for Link to go alone, and she wants to go together. If evidence can be found, she will be responsible for persuading the commander.

ps: The second dungeon is open, but I can't think of a suitable name for a while, so I won't take it for the time being.
