The darkness quickly consumed Azeritto.

The king was standing on the ornate balcony of the palace and looking down, shaking the goblet in his hand, the wine in the glass was like scarlet blood, sweet and tempting.

Because of his caution, the matter of occupying the land of the Demon Realm was temporarily delayed, if it weren't for the heavy casualties of the White Knight's side in the crusade against the Demon Realm, he would never have considered it so much.

However, the recent training of the White Knight recruits is coming to an end, so this matter has been put on the bright side again.

Although some ministers proposed to send the Purple Knights to the expedition when the Demon Realm Expedition had just ended, it was still vetoed by him out of caution, and the Purple Knight's duty was to defend the country, and to put it more bluntly, to protect his safety.

Although the Purple Knights under the kings of the past dynasties have made great achievements, since he took over, the Purple Knights have begun to greatly disarm internally, leaving behind the elite of the elite, but since then they have rarely gone on expeditions.

But in general, the advantages still outweigh the disadvantages, the Purple Knights are the confidence for him to go out on the expedition, no matter what, he doesn't have to worry about the empty army in the kingdom and no one to defend it.

He always didn't like to go into battle without any preparation, and this time was no different, as he had already sent Shadow Bat to the Demon Realm to scout a day earlier.

Although the demons had already collapsed when the coalition army left the Demon Realm battlefield, it was already six months later, and who could guarantee that nothing would happen?

I have to admit that he can safely sit on the throne of the human palace depends on his hypocrisy and prudence.

As for the Shadow Bats, they have a bit of history.

However, they are not the power that can be put on the stage, and as their name suggests, lurking in the shadows is their way of survival.

The Shadow Bat is the largest intelligence network and the strongest army of assassins in the human kingdom, and they have not been a thorn in the side of Artes for the emperors of the past.

At this time, Fadra, who was far away in the Forest of Life, was also discussing this matter with Ilul, who was sitting across from him.

"My dear Elul, accurate news, that sinister pig is already preparing to gnaw at the chassis of the Ogre Realm. With that, Fardella picked up the fruit that Ilul had placed on the table and ate it in small bites.

Ilul on the side was about to answer, but was preempted by Xiaobai: "Flying around every day, you are really not tired, do the witches of the Dark Moon Witch Castle only think about how to soak their sisters?." ”

"Oh, you're the only one who will die alone, dear Xiaobai, besides, this is my rare time to rest, and every day I stay in the castle, my wife is about to grow hair. After saying that, Phadella smacked his lips, I don't know if it was a praise for the fruit or a mockery of Xiaobai.

"Have the human sides already sent an army?" Only then did Ilul interject, she asked with a little confusion, and then, her tone became a little helpless: "You can't care about the image? ”

"Ha, can you not learn from me, Your Highness Princess. Phadra gave Eliul a helpless look, and then, she collected her emotions, and then finally became more serious: "This time the humans should only send scouts, there are less than ten people in total. ”

After hearing this, Ilul lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then looked up at Fadra in a sincere tone: "I have to ask you to keep busy for a while, we can't be completely sure if the humans still have intentions for the Forest of Life this time, so please pay close attention to their actions." ”

This made Phadra grin helplessly, then stood up and prepared to leave: "You always give me some trouble, Iluel, but you must understand that there are some things that you don't think you are doing right can make everyone happy." ”

Fadra was gone, and the sound of the door closing echoed in Ilul's mind for a long time.

The room was silent again, but it made Ilul feel a little melancholy, and she couldn't figure out what to do.

Unlike the violent snowstorm, the clear Amelia snow is still extremely difficult, the strong snow blindness caused López to be unable to see clearly ahead, the sun pierced his eyes, fortunately the cape with a hat can be relieved a little, otherwise it is really a little difficult to walk.

But even with a hat in the way, he still can't see too far, in fact, this is quite a dangerous state, easy to get lost, and most importantly, he can't detect the movement around him in time.

After walking for a while, a rather conspicuous cave came into López's field of vision, but it seemed difficult to get in, the cave was halfway up the snow-capped mountain, this snow-capped mountain was very steep, about seventy degrees.

Fortunately, it is not difficult for López, this kind of mountain he used to climb a lot, and he is very skilled.

After walking to the foot of the mountain, he directly pulled out the two daggers on his waist, and then held them with his backhand.

Immediately after, he raised the dagger in his left hand and stabbed it at the ice, which was covered with snow all year round, and the ice was not as hard as a rock, and the entire blade was completely submerged with a slight force.

He tugged downward, quite firmly, and then, he raised the dagger in his right hand, pierced it into the ice, and when he was sure that it was stable, he pulled the dagger in his left hand out and thrust it upwards as best he could.

López kept repeating the above actions, and his efficiency was not low, and in less than ten minutes, he was already in the cave.

The space inside the cave was surprisingly large, and after observing for a while and finding that nothing unusual was found, he breathed a sigh of relief, put away the dagger and walked slowly inside.

As soon as I took two steps, I saw a fire that had long been extinguished, and a bag with a layer of ice crystals on the side of the fire.

"This should be it. Lopez muttered with relief, thanks to Lady Luck, that he was finally able to leave a place that could even freeze a human liver.

However, he was suddenly a little curious about what was in the bag, something that he would have to get back even if he gave a hundred gold coins.

Unable to suppress his curiosity, he walked up briskly and picked up the bag, which was not too light, which was probably one of the reasons why Wright was so good at leaving such an important thing in the cave.

Sighing, López slowly put the bag down, and then opened it without hesitation.

The contents of the bag were not only numerous but also quite messy, and on the outermost was a white fur of an unknown species, which was supposed to be Wright's trophy.

Beneath the fur were two flint and steel, a few silver coins, a rope that was not short, and some brilliant gems whose names he could not name.

Innermost is a short knife that looks quite sharp

This disappointed López, and after closing the bag, he turned around and prepared to leave.
