The group walked out of the forest and onto the avenue, where Parker cautiously crossed the Tower Bridge, not encountering the expected ambush. He climbed a broken wall at that end, disappeared behind the tower, and soon reappeared behind a window, beckoning to everyone on the second floor to signal safety.

The others walked in turn, and the edge of the woodland was somewhat quiet, except for the sound of the river flowing under the collapsed bridge deck. The river reflected the afternoon sun, and occasionally a wave of light reflected on Fang Yuan's face, and he looked at the reeds in the distance, and there was a shadow lurking under the river.

After the group had descended the bridge, Parker rolled out of the window on the second floor of the tower, grabbed a vine and slid down, clapping his hands and landing beside them. Tianlan then asked him, "Parker, do you see anyone else?" ”

"Nope!" Parker shook his head: "But there's a skeleton in the tower I don't know if it's someone else, but I've already killed it, I smashed its head off with a crossbow, and got out of the way." ”

When Fang Yu heard this, he was sure that there was no one else here. The undead are very sensitive to the breath of the living, and they can't be so quiet if the living are nearby.

"It's weird," Tianlan asked with some confusion, "Didn't you say that someone was 'chartered' here, they shouldn't have blocked all the intersections, but why is there no one here?" Could it be that Chris is lying to us? ”

"Sky blue." Attila glared at her in disgust.

But the older knight on the side only shook his head, and he looked at the other side of the Tower Bridge.

Tianlan realized that she had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed her words: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm not suspicious of Chris, it's just a little strange." Mr. Chief Protector, is this what this place is meant to be? ”

"I haven't been to this place in years, but there should have been a camp on the avenue outside, where adventurers are used to exchanging things-" Dirkt's voice was a little cold, he regarded Chris as his student, and Sky Blueheart's blunt words clearly offended him.

Fang Yu was a little helpless, so he could only try to change the topic and ease the atmosphere. He asked, "How long has it been since Mr. Dickert been here?" ”

"Actually, it didn't take long."

Fang Yu paused for a moment, if he was not mistaken, the other party replied to Tianlan before, "He hasn't been to this place for some years. Fang Yu didn't know what the other party's sentence meant to describe 'these years' was not a long time for him, or if he was just angry with Tianlan.

He asked this question to confirm whether the camp had moved elsewhere over the years, or had been dispersed by the 'charter' organization, and the other party's ambiguous answer couldn't help but make his question a little untenable.

Fortunately, the older knight seemed to understand the meaning of his question.

Seeing that he retracted his gaze, he said to the other plover: "They should have left not long ago, did they see that hazelnut tree?" I watched the first adventurers set up their tents in that place, and there are still ropes they left behind. ”

Fang Yu hurriedly looked in that direction, but his perception was only a little high, and he didn't have any reconnaissance skills—he could see the tall hazelnut tree, but he couldn't see anything underneath.

But Attila walked over, patted the back of his hand, and whispered to him, "There are indeed signs of encampment down there, Eddard." ”

Fang Yu glanced at Miss Elf and nodded.

That camp has been stationed here for years, and it's impossible for adventurers to leave for no reason, and judging by recent events, it's likely that they were driven away by the 'mysterious organization' that Chris mentioned.

He couldn't help but look around with some confusion - the group was supposed to be at the city gate, the building was half collapsed, and he could barely see part of the city wall submerged under the green vegetation.

Looking inside, there is a dead street, with crumbling, empty buildings and parasitic plants, and in some places towering trees that have collapsed the room, rubble and rubble to the ground.

It clearly looks like no one has ever existed.

But Tianlan is right, if the other party wants to occupy this place, the easiest way is to block the entrances to several city gates. But after the mysterious organization drove the adventurers away, it seemed that they themselves had disappeared into the city.

This is a little too strange, could it be the reason for the wave of undead last night?

"So did those people leave, or did they enter the Doriffines?" The Paparal man found a rock and sat on it, looked at the others and asked.

These words couldn't help but make Fang Yu's face a little uncomfortable, before that, he obviously seriously analyzed that those mysterious people were still in Dorifin.

But it seems a little untenable to say that these mysterious people went to the city - Chris said that the other party had a conflict with the adventurers, and it seemed that they won the battle, and they should not have such strength that they would have to give up the troops guarding everywhere when searching the inner city.

"Whether we're leaving or entering the city, we always have to go in and have a look. Rather than having a pointless discussion here, let's first decide what to expect after we get inside. Sylvester's partner in Shesta jumped off the collapsed Tower Bridge. She patted her skirt very ladylikely, and looked up just in time to hear the end of the conversation, and then she spoke.

Her words made everyone nod.

Fang Yu couldn't help but look at the older knight and asked, "Mr. Dickett, do you have any plans?" ”

The knight thought for a moment and replied, "Doriphon is very large, and there are many legends that have been circulated over the years, but in general, the main purpose of the adventurers is still Dorifin's three things. ”

In other words, the possibility of the mysterious man's goal of three things should also be the greatest. Even if it's not all right, at least we can't go wrong with the idea of first important, then second, after all, we don't have any other clues. Fang Yu couldn't help but nod.

"The Paparals think it's possible," Parker chimed in. "At worst, even if we don't find anything, at least we have a little extra income."

Before he finished speaking, he was robbed by Sky Blue: "Parker, shut your crow's mouth!" ”

Fang Yu ignored these two living treasures, and continued to ask, "Then are we going along this avenue to Grey Oak Square now, I remember what Mr. Dickett said earlier?" ”

"No," but at this time, Kita on the side spoke. "If we want to investigate according to the three things, we have to start with Fujiba and the Lady Hotel."

"Why?"

"I know a little bit about that," Sylved replied softly, "and I've heard some rumors about it when I was in Elpahim, Mr. Captain. ”

After Sylvide's description, and Kita's addition, Fang Yu finally figured out what was going on. It turns out that Dorifin's three objects are not isolated three pieces of equipment, but three rewards in a series of events. This event starts at the Fujiba and the Lady's Inn, and after obtaining the Martyrdom Mark of the Loyal on the bedside table in a room on the third floor of the inn, a special event is triggered, the Apparition of the Past.

When the event begins, the apparitions in Fujiba and the Lady's Inn will travel back in time to a moment in the past, and then ask the participants to find a character in the inn in the shortest amount of time and protect them from harm until the latter leaves the inn and reaches the Ruin Avenue.

After completing this event, participants will be able to obtain the Mark of Martyrdom of the Loyalist, which they will use to open the next scene, the Battle of Grey Oak Square. and defeat a former illusion called 'Shadow of Void Delusion' with the Blade of False Victory in the Battle of the Square.

After defeating the illusions of yesteryear, the path to the town hall will open. And the adventurer will challenge the boss-level undead holding the Scepter of Arrogance, and finally get the Scepter of Pride of the Ignorant. When Dorifin's three objects come together, all the visions of the city will be reduced to nothingness, and only then can the participants return to reality from the shadows of the past.

By the time they heard the description, the group had almost reached the Fisherman's Junction, which was named after the winding street, according to the older knight Dickett, and from the fork in the road to the north was Grey Oak Square.

To the south, there is the Vine Leaf and the Ladies Hotel.

He also mentions that the end of the Seal of Martyrdom mission for the Faithful is the long street. When the characters in the Phantom are escorted to this long street, all the illusions from the Lady Fujiba Hotel to this point will disappear into invisibility.

"I've had the privilege of going through it once, and here—" Dickett said as he came to the middle of the fork in the road, pointing to a place, "and I saw her leave us all behind and disappear into the darkness." ”

For some reason, Fang Yu always felt that his tone was a little stunned.

Fang Yu stopped and looked around, Dickt had said that there were usually many adventurers gathered here, but now the street was quiet and empty.

And the task described by the other party also made him feel a little unfinished, generally speaking, the escort mission is to send the target to the destination, or the hand of the receiver, isn't it? How could any target suddenly leave the escort party and disappear into the darkness by himself.

Fang always felt that the description was more of a metaphor than a task.

Parker in front of him suddenly bent down and picked up something from the ground.

Behind the Paparals, Sky Blue was still thinking about what Sylvade had said earlier. "Sister Sylvide, you say it's back to reality? Could it be that everything before this was a dream? ”

"No, Miss Frey," Kitta replied quietly, shaking her head, "Have you heard of the Wraiths and the Earthbound Spirits?" ”

"Ah, that's a little bit of a know."

Many scholars have come to study Dorifin's visions, the most famous of which is undoubtedly Learbain, the seventh owner of the Silver Tower. Mr. Learbain lived here for three years in order to study the phenomenon of Dorifin, and finally he concluded that the cause of Dorifin's apparition was the result of a great grudge that haunted it, a kind of ghost illusion, and its principle was similar to that of a haunting ghost, the product of lingering thoughts and information—"

Azure couldn't help but rub her brows, the Silver Tower is the largest scholar organization in Aitalia, it is relatively loose, but it has branches in all countries - because scholars have no borders, she knows that Lil Bane is the previous Silver Tower Master, that is, the head of this organization.

But that's all she knows, and she sighed and said, "I know everything, but can you put it simply, good Kita." ”

The little girl looked at her with a frown: "Miss Furi—"

"Okay, okay," Tianlan couldn't help but interrupt her loudly, "I know, read more books, Kita, you are really more verbose than my old grandmother in Caen, and when you grow up, you will definitely become a terrible long-tongued woman." ”

Kita was so angry that she refused to speak.

It was Sylvid who explained for her with a smile: "To put it simply, you can imagine the entire illusion of Doriphon as a giant earthbound spirit, because you can't miss it, so this illusion will always recur repeatedly. ”

"In fact, there have been people who have seen the image of a strange woman appear all over the city." Ditek suddenly added, "Some say it's the embodiment of Dorifin's vision, and they call that woman the non-existent lady." ”

When he said this, he seemed to think of something, and he stopped talking.

The little French girl frowned and looked disgusted: "Then aren't we equivalent to a huge ghost body?" Oh, it's disgusting, I knew I wasn't coming. ”

Everyone couldn't help but be defeated by this little girl's strange idea, and couldn't help but roll their eyes.

"Since it's an undead illusion, hasn't anyone tried to dispel it?" Fang Yu turned around and asked at this time.

"How could it not be," replied Kita, "Brother Ed, the priests of the Elpashin Orli Temple come here every year in February for a dispersal ceremony, and even the Great Temple in the far away Golander sends a professional staff-bearing bishop to preside over the ceremony, but with little success. ”

"Since the results are very small, why do you want to mobilize the people every year?" Sky Blue was puzzled.

"Alright, Sky Blue," Attila shook her head. "Don't always raise the bar with Kita."

"Oh-"

And it was at this moment that a skeleton suddenly staggered out of the ruins not far away, and it arched through the rubble and crawled out from under a horizontal wall, and the rubble on its body fell to the ground with a thud.

Attila happened to see that direction, and didn't even think about taking the spear from her back and throwing it in that direction, the spear piercing through the skeleton and bringing it down.

But when the elf lady saw where the bone rack had fallen, she sighed softly.

She walked over, and Fang Yu also saw the thing and followed it. He even arrived first, drew his spear, turned over the bone rack, and tore a rag from underneath.

He grabbed the rag and shook the dust off it, unfolding it, and a badge painted in red paint unfolded on the cloth.

A broken, hornless dragon head.

"Ah——!h

Tianlan couldn't help but scream out loud when she saw the things in Fang Yuan's hand. The Owl looked at Attila, who looked at the emblem with the same solemn expression.

"This should be part of a cloak, but this skeleton should not be the original owner, there may have been a battle here before, and this cloak is left like this." Fang Yu looked at the fallen ruins. Pointing to one of them: "The traces of the break here are still very new, and I recognize this trace - piercing shots, and there is a nighthawk on the other side, but I don't know who attacked whom." ”

"Are those people?" Sky Blue ran up and asked.

Attila and Fang Yu nodded in unison, both of them were a little surprised, they didn't expect to find the clue so quickly - the other party was indeed in the city.

But before they could take a closer look at what was happening nearby, they heard Parker shouting hurriedly in front of them.

"Kita, Kita, come and see, did you say that the person who attacked you that day brought this thing?" Fang Ou turned around, and saw the Paparal man running towards him with something waving in his hand.

This guy never seemed to know what whispering meant, or how he got the Thief's Blade in Sanshak.

Fang Yu couldn't help but touch his mask a little angrily.
