Inside the tree castle, Phyllis and Wendy, Otto, and Leah were gathered around a tree stump with a roll of parchment written on it. If Darko were here, he would see that the entry list he saw in the casino, just without those odds. But there are a few more places that are specially marked, with some dense annotations. The small print was handwritten, and it looked like Phyllis's handwriting.

"I'm tired today!I've run a long way to come back with such a piece of torn paper, and I'm going to die!" Phyllis stretched and stuffed herself into a wicker chair.

Leah held another roll of parchment in her hand and carefully compared the two, "Hey, you see, the information that Klein collected is quite accurate, and the five teams he collected the information are indeed very good at passing the qualifying round." ”

Wendy is focusing on the other side of the story, "There are almost 30 of these participating teams, all of whom are masters, and it looks like it will be a bit difficult to get into the top 16 in qualifying. ”

"Haha! You've been deceived by superficial appearances!" Phyllis laughed, pointing to the parchment, "I was also shocked when I saw it first, and then Elder Walker told me that these strong teams may not be able to get orc warriors, and those who can get orc warriors may not be very strong, so a team like ours with both will definitely stand out." ”

There is a big gap between the combat effectiveness of orc warriors and ordinary orcs, coupled with the difference in body carrying capacity, it is basically impossible for ordinary orcs to defeat orc warriors, so that a large part of the team can be excluded.

Otto nodded understandingly, he could just sense from Phyllis's relaxed attitude that it wasn't too difficult to win. He has been sparring with orc warriors for the past month, and he is already half a beast trainer, and he knows that orc warriors are much stronger than orcs, so he made up his mind to add more training to orc warriors before the competition.

"What are these little words on it, and why do you need to note them separately?" asked Leah, pointing to some of the names on them.

Phyllis looked at Wendy, then pointed to the parchment and said, "Those are the same as Wendy, who signed up with fake names, but the Alchemy Guild will have a record of spiritual power for those who have signed up in the past, so they can know who the people who signed up with fake names are." ”

"So Wendy, they know that, too?" said Leah, who saw Wendy's name as well.

Wendy tapped her finger on the stump, "I also participated in the last Grand Prix four years ago, and that time I participated in it with my real name, and the Alchemy Guild should know that it was me." ”

Phyllis waved her hand indifferently, "It's okay, although your Storm Church is in a big uproar now, it is not good for the Alchemy Guild to give you out, it is estimated that no one will be so idle, and there are no people from the Harris family in the upper echelons of the Alchemy Guild." ”

"I can't say for sure, some people are afraid that the world will not be in chaos, or they may sell this news to the Stormwind Church. Leah frowned a little worriedly, and asked curiously, "Why do so many people use fake names to sign up for the competition? Is it the same situation as Wendy?"

Phyllis laughed and said, "It's not easy, those old guys who have been defeated again and again are afraid of losing face!"

After a little thought, Lia understood that on the surface, most of the people who participated in this Alchemy Grand Prix were young people, but in fact, there were many people who had participated in many times but failed to win the championship. They all have a lot of experience in the tournament, but they didn't make it to the top due to a lack of luck, and many of these people don't give up, but they don't want to compete under their real names, so they have a lot of fake names, which is just enough for Wendy to hide her identity.

Otto interjected at this time, "Although there are so many people who have signed up under fake identities, Wendy has exposed herself when she goes to the competition, and the Storm Church is very powerful, maybe some clues will be found." ”

Wendy said helplessly, "This is also something that can't be helped, let's take one step at a time." Even if the Storm Church knew about the situation here, they wouldn't have blatantly arrested me during the Alchemy Grand Prix. At most, there is only the possibility of assassination or something, and I am not the only one who is in danger, and you should all take care of your own safety, and only go out during the day in the future, and come back as early as possible at night. ”

Phyllis realized something, turned her head to look at the magic clock in the living room, and said indignantly, "That bastard Kostner, I don't know where I took Darko, and he hasn't come back yet, see how I teach him a lesson later!"

"Hey, Darko, guess how much money I won?" Hahahaha!" Laughter came from downstairs, and Kevin jumped in through the window as soon as the voice arrived, "Huh? You're all there, Darko?"

Phyllis was the first to react, hurriedly jumped up from the wicker chair, rushed to Kevin, grabbed him by the collar and asked eagerly, "Where did you take Darko? Why don't you follow him?"

"Darko hasn't come back yet? Can't he find his way? I let him come back first early on......" Kevin was stunned for a moment, and then saw the expressions of several other people before hurriedly asking, "Has Darko never come back?"

Everyone was silent, except for Otto who shook his head at Kevin.

"Costner, you bastard!" Phyllis pushed Kevin away and ran straight to the window, ready to jump out.

"No, I'll have to go find him, too!" said Kevin, who ran after Phyllis.

But at this moment, a figure blocked the window and stopped both Phyllis and Kevin, it was Liya, she was afraid that she would not be able to stop Phyllis, and said in an eager tone, "It's already dark, you go to Dakko now will inevitably affect the state of tomorrow's game, not to mention that if you can't find him overnight, will you come back on time when you qualify tomorrow?"

Phyllis looked at Ria angrily, "I can't find anyone, what do you care about the game!"

Leah's expression changed suddenly, she came to participate in the Alchemy Grand Prix in order to win the championship, but she didn't expect to have a teammate like Phyllis, and she was about to have a seizure when Phyllis said this. Wendy floated up behind and interjected, "It's serious, Darko may just meet some acquaintance and return a little late, so there shouldn't be any big danger." What's more, he can escape from a year's pursuit in the Mercury plane, and his vigilance is very high. ”

Kevin anxiously turned around and asked, "What are you going to do?

In the face of such questioning, Wendy was only silent, and Leah took the opportunity to persuade, "Phyllis, I know you are worried about Darko's safety, but the game is the overall situation, you don't want to be childish." Tomorrow is a qualifying match, and we can advance without one Scriber, but with one less Decomposer, it will be dangerous. ”

"Liya, you don't have a backache when you stand and talk!" Phyllis's chest rose and fell rapidly, and she was about to cry. She remembered that more than a year ago, when Darko was preparing to go to the Mercury plane alone, he also left quietly like this, if she hadn't gotten the news from Archbishop Narich in time to block Darko in the space temple, I am afraid that it would have disappeared as suddenly as now. It's only been a few days since the two of them reunited, how could she just lose Dakko again?

"It's a bit of a strange thing," Kevin said after a moment's thought, "everything was normal when he was separated from me, he wasn't the kind of person who would disappear without saying hello, and there was nothing big about him running away from right now." ”

Otto also leaned over, "Although I haven't been with Darko for long, I know that he is a very powerful magician, and you are a little worried. ”

"What are we going to do then?" Phyllis cried out as she crouched down on the ground with her head covered, "Are we just waiting?"

Leah was also at a loss, she thought that Phyllis would force her way out, but in fact, Phyllis didn't know where to find Darko, after all, no one gave her information about Darko this time.

Several people glanced at each other and shook their heads, and finally Wendy broke the silence, "Darko didn't come back, and he definitely wanted to find it, but the key problem is that there are no clues, so the top priority is not to search blindly, but to find out the information." ”

None of the people had any experience in dealing with this before, but at this time, Wendy made a suggestion and immediately became the commander of everyone, " Phyllis, you go to the Alchemy Guild to find Elder Walker, after all, St. Yale is the territory of the Alchemy Guild, and they are more well-informed in all aspects; Costner, you go back to the casino you visited, and search carefully along the way from the casino, paying special attention to anything unusual; Leah, you have been to the city gate to make a public announcement before, and you are familiar with it, please ask if there is any news that Dacko is out of the city; I used the Wind Listening Technique to eavesdrop on the city to see if I can find any clues; Weedmeier, you stayed in the tree fort, responsible for the liaison work of several people who went out, and the situation is unclear nowWe want to prevent anyone from going missing before we find the Daktronics. ”

"Okay, it's closer to the city gate, I'll go back to the tree castle and wait for you after I ask. Leah listened to Wendy's arrangement, and also felt that this was the best way at the moment, so she took the lead in agreeing, and then said, "In a special period, there needs to be a decision-maker, I suggest that Wendy be in command, how about it?"

Kevin said in a deep voice, "I don't have a problem, I'll tell you right away if I find Dakko on the way to the casino later." ”

Phyllis didn't answer, just took a teleportation scroll and quickly jumped out of the window and disappeared into the night.
