Bruno, the fantasy dragon, is a rare scholar-type demigod who is friendly to players in the original game world.

He often posts a variety of quests to his players, most of which are difficult to complete, but the rewards for completing them are quite high. Therefore, as a quest publisher NPC, it is also a relatively well-known kind among players.

When it comes to Emperor Otto, although Aske has no evidence, he still believes that the fantasy dragon is not really behind it.

The reason is simple, it's too easy to guess.

Assuming that Emperor Otto's mission is revealed, 9,999 out of 10,000 players who plan to do the mission will suspect Bruno at the first time.

In this case, if the mastermind behind the scenes happens to be Bruno, everyone will think that this task is too simple, and then start to spray the plan not enough.

Even if it is not considered from the perspective of the game company, Bruno is unlikely to be the mastermind behind it, on the one hand, once this matter is poked out, he will become the target of public criticism in the NPC of the imperial camp, so for the sake of avoiding suspicion, he should not participate in this southern expedition.

On the other hand, Bruno really doesn't have that motivation. He is the demigod of the Saxon family, the ancestor of the emperor, and the failure of the southern crusade has dealt a serious blow to the prestige of the royal family, what reason does Bruno have to destroy the prestige of his family?

Asker was more suspicious of the "just in time" team of prison guards than the fantasy dragon.

The devil's mutation came out in the middle of the night until the early hours of the morning, and these guys arrived in the morning, claiming that they had observed the location of the devil's mutation through the Holy See's surveillance satellites.

However, just after the second round of the Demon Tide, if Asker remembers correctly, it seems that the Holy See has had some kind of attack during the period of civilization recovery after this Demon Tide**, when nearly 8,000 players in the city were given a mission to investigate the attack.

The attack** caused the Holy See's external program interface to hang for a week. In other words, at this point in time, the prison watchers organization could not borrow the Holy See's surveillance satellites.

So, at least when it comes to how to spot the mutation, the Prison Watch team must be lying.

Of course, when you think of the succubus queen in the original game world who sent someone to investigate this matter, she was beaten up by the prison guards, saying that she was the culprit who affected the emperor's mind, then the smell of conspiracy in this is very serious.

The two rode forward, and gradually caught up with the fantasy dragon Bruno, just as the two dragons above their heads soared again, setting off a huge wind.

"These two dragons have come to help us on this expedition to the south." Bruno held the reins of his horse and looked ahead, "We of Saxony have an ancient agreement with the dragons of the Alps, we can make three requests to them, and the dragons of Salakli will help us according to the agreement. ”

"This time Your Majesty has used the second request, and no matter what the final outcome is, it can be regarded as a very precious request opportunity. Therefore, I hope you will understand that the Saxons have gambled too much for this southern expedition, and it is for this reason that we cannot directly turn against the prison guards, lest they become the opposite weight on the balance of war. ”

"I understand." Asker nodded.

The young man was not as flattered as Bruno expected, much to the surprise of the dragon of fantasy, but he didn't care about it either, and continued:

"If you're just an ordinary mercenary group, I might have to help intervene; But now that you're protected by the Weissbach family, you'll be fine. The bloodline path of the transcendent is varied, and the succubus bloodline is just one of the routes. ”

"Even if the prison guards deliberately target you, as long as you stay in the Imperial army for a day, they will not have a chance to attack."

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency." Aske said, holding the reins of his horse.

He didn't know if Bruno was reading his mind right now, but based on the impressions in the original game world, the demigod was a fairly principled superior, not at all as unruly as the Succubus Queen.

Therefore, despite Medea's apprehension and apprehension, he calmly confronted the dragon of fantasy:

"I'm not worried about that, because this Prison Watch Team alone is no match for our team in terms of combat."

As he said this, Bruno remembered his strange swordsmanship that could "kill" the opponent's attack thoughts. But after all, it is the most taboo to talk about it in a shallow way, and this demigod didn't ask rashly, but just smiled:

"The Prisoner's supernatural bloodline, called the 'Crusader of Extermination', is not a class that excels at fighting alone, but is quite effective in dealing with demons and teamwork. In addition, their good relationship with the Holy See allows them to receive a lot of technical assistance from the Holy See, and they have a great advantage in terms of information and equipment, so you still have to be careful. ”

"I see." Aske nodded suddenly in realization, "No wonder we only encountered the devil's mutation in the early hours of this morning, they rushed over in time in the morning, presumably the Holy See provided the corresponding information." ”

As soon as he said this, Bruno immediately became alert. Of course, he was also aware of the emperor's plan, which meant that the Holy See should be affected by that attack**, and in the short term, whether it was to overload Raphael or restore industrial production, it would be affected by a certain degree of delay.

So where did the information about the prisoners come from? From the Holy See? The Holy See is still in chaos.

The two chatted casually for a few more words, and Bruno only felt that the water behind this matter was a little deep, whether it was the mastermind behind the devil's mutation, or this team of prisoners of unknown origin, there were big problems to be explored.

After the dragon of fantasy left, Medea squinted at Aske and asked in the Mind Channel:

"How's it going, my great detective? Did you get any clues? ”

"Your Excellency the Fantasy Dragon probably doesn't know about this matter." Aske replied, "Of course, I mean Emperor Otto's mind. ”

"Expected." Medea snorted coldly, "It's all under the spotlight in front of the stage, how can it be that it is still the mastermind behind the scenes?" ”

"Not necessarily, maybe it's just trying to take advantage of our contrarian thinking." Asker said that although he is most likely innocent, he cannot completely rule out suspicion, "In addition, I also reminded him a little that there is a problem with the prison watchman team." ”

"Oh." Medea nodded, "Yes, not many people know my mother's real name, but that priest can tell the truth, hehe." Do you want to inform Malkina about this? By the way, there's also my Jade Hope III potion, which she'll have to pay us once we start contacting the Emperor's camp. ”

"I almost forgot if you didn't say it." Asker patted his head, "Today, find a time." ”
