Fang watched as the Paparral emerged from the shadows of the wind and snow, his stocky body climbing over a low fence, through the snow and weeds in the yard, and then struggling to climb up the windowsill.

He reached out and pulled a hand, asking, "Are they still there?" ”

"I don't think I'm there," Parker jumped off the windowsill, clapped his hands, and glanced back at the room, "It's empty, there's no one." Perhaps they have already left, didn't you kill the messenger once in Wormburg, maybe he informed the others after he was resurrected. ”

Fang Plover's gaze looked through the window, and he also looked at the dilapidated house not far away, and according to Parker and Sky Blue, it was at the end of the street that they saw the Dragonfire Guild.

This is actually the back alley of the Adventurers' Guild, and they rent a room in a nearby inn to keep an eye on the end of the street. It is a dead end, and people who come in and out are bound to pass in this direction.

However, they had been watching for most of the day, and there were only a few people in and out of this dilapidated alley, and most of them were local aborigines, and there was nothing suspicious.

Fang Yu nodded slightly, and Parker said that it was possible, after all, those people had already colluded with the Worship of the Dragon Messenger in Dorifin's time.

He was silent for a moment, wondering if he needed to fight alone.

The people of the Dragon Fire Guild would certainly not have good intentions to appear in this place at the risk of being discovered, and the plan they had in their mouths was also disturbing; As for the person behind the catastrophe that happened to Doriphin thirty years ago, he should theoretically actively seek the help of Stargate Harbor.

But his identity is a little embarrassing, and he can't see the light, and if he posts above the community, he will inevitably startle the snake; An idea flashed through Fang Yu's mind, he couldn't do it, but maybe someone else could, and after a little thought, he already had a suitable candidate in his heart.

Fang Yu raised his head, took one last look in that direction, and said, "Let's go." ”

The other party has already left, so naturally there is no point in them staying here.

Although Parker was a little reluctant, he had just returned from the snow outside, and he swore that he would not return to the terrible snow, which was enough to cover the waist of a Paparal, according to Parker's exaggerated statement.

But to Parker's displeasure, the other party ignored him.

……

It's still daylight.

Su Changfeng remembered that the last time he fell asleep was twelve hours ago, when he could still see the solar halo of the star at the edge of the earth, and now it is the same, but the halo has become smaller.

This meant that Stargate had been in orbit for half the time, and the different ways of timing in orbit always gave him a headache, which reminded him of his younger days when he was training in the base.

At that time, his daughter had just been born, and he remembered that he had almost been ecstatic when he heard the news from his family and realized that he had become a father.

In a blink of an eye, almost 20 years have passed, and the gentle smile of his wife at that moment is still in the deepest part of her memory, and her daughter is gradually growing up, but she has already grown up and is no longer young.

Su Changfeng silently looked at the sun halo, which had almost no change from twenty years ago, and sighed for a moment before turning over and getting out of bed from the environment of microgravity.

The living compartment was filled with dark red lights, and he opened his personal terminal first, and there were a few inconsequential messages on it—but someone was looking for him, and he swiped lightly on the glass plate, revealing Ambassador Liao's somewhat tired face.

"You're awake just in time, there's something going on here, it's best to come to the conference room and lie down."

Su Changfeng looked at this person, the two of them were actually the same batch of graduates from the Xingmen Port base, and they were in charge of different aspects of affairs. The latter, on the other hand, is almost a workaholic, and he sometimes wonders if the other person needs to sleep.

"What's going on?"

"The results from Xingmen Harbor are out."

"Coming out?"

Su Changfeng patted his face, sobered up for a moment, and then remembered this incident. Among the several major events that have been ranked in Xingmen Port in the past month, the incident that happened on Fenris Island before can be ranked at least among the top three.

Not only them, but after the footage was circulated through the community, several other districts began to pay attention to the incident. And the domestic Super Sports League has put forward several proposals to Xingmen Port, asking to intervene in this matter-

However, they were all blocked by the military under various pretexts.

One of the most critical points is that Xingmen Port has not found out who the other party is for the time being. The boy seemed to have disappeared, or never existed, not knowing where he came from or where he was now.

In the past month, there has been no progress in the investigation work of Xingmen Port.

"How did it turn out, what about the little one?"

"Good news and bad news, you listen to that first?"

"You don't come to this set," Su Changfeng saw that his old classmate was joking with him, and he knew that the other party was in a good mood: "I am a soldier, and I am used to thinking about problems from the worst situation, so let's listen to the bad news first." ”

Ambassador Liao smiled lightly: "The bad news is that all the people in and out of Xingmen Port have been checked for the past month, but the boy who was underground in Fenris at that time has not been found. ”

"Let me guess," Su Changfeng immediately became energetic and asked keenly: "The so-called good news, is this also the case?" ”

Ambassador Liao nodded.

I didn't find anyone, and I was sure that the other party was not in the dead dead zone under Fenris, and it was possible that he was still in Aitalia, which was undoubtedly the best news.

The next thing the military needs to do is invest manpower and find a target in Aitalia.

However, he frowned again, and became a little serious: "Of course, the worst possibility cannot be ruled out. ”

Su Changfeng was stunned for a moment, and his expression sank. As he said, he is a soldier and is used to thinking about problems from the worst-case scenario, and he is also a high-level official in Xingmen Port, so he naturally understands what the 'worst-case scenario' is.

Such a situation is rare, but it has not happened in history and has had a bad impact.

His old boss left his post gloomily for this reason.

Ambassador Liao shook his head and continued: "However, until there is no basis, this item is only used as a reservation option for the time being, and for the time being, we still tacit that the other party is still staying in Aitalia. ”

Su Changfeng reacted, sat back on the edge of the bed, and subconsciously went to get his pipe, but suddenly remembered what place this was, withdrew his hand again, and tapped his fingers on the side of the bed.

He raised his head and asked, "You want me to preside over the job of finding someone?" ”

"There's no more manpower on the special team."

"What does it say?"

"The mandate has come down."

"Then I will naturally accept the order," Su Chang replied immediately. But he thought for a moment, and then asked casually, "Do you think that kid is still in Fenris?" ”

"It's hard to say," Ambassador Liao shook his head: "There are quite a few ships that have left Yunzhi Port recently, and we can't check them one by one, so theoretically, the other party should contact us directly." ”

The ambassador paused: "But special cases are not excluded either. ”

Su Changfeng was a little curious: "Is there such a low-key person, this is a great opportunity to become famous?" ”

"Anyone can have any," Ambassador Liao said calmly, "but the reason why I recommend you to preside over this work is for another reason. That precious girl of yours said she had made a deal with her target, and that deal hasn't been done yet—"

Su Changfeng remembered this incident at this time, and he was also at the scene at the time: "I happened to know about this matter, what?" Sophie, does she have any clues? ”

Only then did Ambassador Liao show a hint of helplessness on his face.

"The problem is that your Sophie won't speak, and we don't know if it's because they're not contacting her, or if she's hiding something from us," he thought for a moment, "The information shows that she's been to the south of Grand Creek Valley recently, and she's only taken the Companion Knight with her, although this is also one of Silver Vislan's quests—but I've heard that she gave up another assignment at hand and volunteered to apply." ”

Su Changfeng couldn't help but have a headache when he thought of his unconscious daughter, sometimes it was not necessarily a good thing to have a daughter who was too smart and assertive.

At least he, as a father, has never been worried.

"She went to Dulun?" Knowing his daughter Mo Ruo's father, he knew that his daughter would not give up the task easily, and the reason why the other party did this must be for another reason. And the two families have always been very close, and his old classmate is obviously very aware of this, so he asked this question.

Ambassador Liao nodded.

"Silver Vislan's mission, is it because of that?" Su Changfeng asked again.

The other party is still the head of the jaw.

Su Changfeng was silent for a moment before finally raising his head.

"Well," he replied, sighing, "I'll take someone over there myself." However, Su Changfeng glanced at his old classmate again, and suddenly changed his words: "But to be honest, you asked me to go over there, do you also have the idea of letting me check the situation in the south?" ”

Ambassador Liao let out a sigh of relief: "I knew I couldn't hide it from you. ”

He continued: "The other side has always used commercialization as an excuse to go its own way, but this time the change of power within the kingdom is actually very dissatisfied. You know, our diplomatic rule is not to meddle in the internal affairs of other countries, and the same is true in Aitalia, and the Alliance's behavior has crossed the line a bit this time-"

"It's just that considering the international influence, the above is more restrained......"

"So what is my mission?"

"On the one hand, it's to see if your baby daughter is really going to connect with the target, and if you can, protect the other party." Ambassador Liao thought for a moment: "On the other hand, after the riots in July...... The news was completely cut off, and after the Dulun School announced the closure of the trade route in September, the information could not come out and could not enter. ”

"And the alliance side is also divided, and has never been able to give a clear explanation, and now most of the electors still don't know what is happening in the south, but the news can't be suppressed for a day."

"Charter City is also in a hurry, in fact, not only Xingmen Port, but also the Artisan Association has sent people to ask us for help."

Su Changfeng listened silently, as a high-level official of Xingmen Port, he naturally knew some inside information, and knew some things that happened in the south a few months ago. He was silent for a moment before asking, "What about our official status?" ”

"Originally, the Artisan Guild could arrange one for you, but since their relationship with the Dulun Alchemist Alliance is very tense now, we have to figure out our own way, and there is just an opportunity here."

"You mean the Continental League?" Su Changfeng suddenly reacted.

Ambassador Liao nodded: "The points competition of the Continental League has ended, and there is another exhibition match in the south, and it just so happens that there is also a place on the Xingmen Port side-"

Su Changfeng frowned: "Then I can't only be a nanny?" ”

"What nanny, why are you talking so badly? It's just for you to transfer a group of novices, and it has been decided that you will let the people from the special reserve team assist you and transfer Captain Zhang Tianmu Zhang to this action group. ”

Su Changfeng was stunned, raised his head and asked vaguely: "He?" That guy isn't in charge of 'over there' anymore? He thought to himself, after all, the work over there is one of the top priorities in Xingmen Port at this time, and if they are not careful, they will all have to leave class.

"There are no clues for the time being," Ambassador Liao replied, "and this is also the opinion above." ”

Su Changfeng nodded when he heard this.

"Okay, then I'll talk about the specifics later," he finally asked, "But how are you going to announce the matter about the Fenris underground?" ”

"Truthfully, of course."

Su Changfeng was taken aback: "Truthful? ”

Ambassador Liao nodded: "Haven't we found anything, then tell them that we haven't got any news yet." ”

Su Changfeng paused for a moment, and then he couldn't help but give a thumbs up to his old classmate - it was really high. It's true that they don't have any information, but those on the outside certainly won't believe it.

Since they don't believe it, let them guess randomly.

When they guessed the real answer, it was estimated that the operation on the side of Xingmen Port would almost have already come to fruition.

The two looked at each other and did not speak again in a very tacit understanding.

……

"Honestly...... Honestly, I didn't really think you were alive......"

"You know, when that boy of yours came to you, he was only as old as Argyle; More than ten years have passed, and the latter has also become the head of the Silverwind Knights, and that kid of your family is even more famous, and he is already a Count—"

The light through the blinds was faint, and the light passed through the dust in the room and fell on the desk, leaving bright textures of varying widths. The owner of the room grunted and pulled the rope with his hand to adjust the light.

The light fell on the faces of the two.

Sitting next to the dwarf was a middle-aged man with a deep, knife-like face, thin lips, thick beard and eyebrows, and a slightly pale complexion, but not in any way any less majestic.

If Fang Yu was here, he would definitely recognize that the other party was the knight Dikt who he had a relationship with in Dorifin, but after the other party changed his outfit at the moment, he didn't look like a paladin from Marlan, but more like a nobleman of the kingdom.

And when the dwarf called him, he used a name that was unfamiliar to Fang Yu - Shide.

As for the dwarf.

Speaking of Fang Yu, he also knows each other, and even sometimes he may grit his teeth when he mentions the other party's name.

The dwarf is none other than Arquette, a master craftsman of the Elpahim Artisans' Association, but in Fang Yuan's heart, this man is one of the culprits who completely ruined the image of the dwarf as honest and loyal.

Of course, the latter does not have this self-realization.

The knight did not react to the dwarf's chatter, as if he had long been accustomed to it. In fact, the two had been friends for decades before he went to the ruins of Doriphon and disappeared.

Originally, as a human being, he should have gray hair at this age, and it was only because of some coincidence that he was able to appear in front of this old dwarf with the almost unchanged appearance thirty years ago.

"You're really not getting old at all." The old dwarf couldn't help but sigh: "There were such rumors twenty years ago, until you disappeared, what did you encounter in Dolipin thirty years ago?" ”

The knight shook his head, his expression relaxed, and he smiled: "You know, I promised others that I would not reveal the specific circumstances of what happened at that time. Maybe one day, someone else will tell you the mystery of what happened to you. ”

"You're always like that," Arquette was dissatisfied, but remembered what he was going to do, and he had to put away his dissatisfaction. He looked at the latter: "Are you really sure that's the kid, he'll listen to me?" ”

"With your present attitude, Arquette," the knight laughed, "I bet he won't pay attention to you, but that little friend of mine is a very assertive man." ”

"I don't think so, it's just a silly boy." Arquette shook his head.

"Arquette."

"Okay," the dwarf sighed, put down his quill, folded the letter paper on the desk with his thick and short fingers, put it in the envelope, folded it, and pressed a wax mark, "I'm an old man, shouldn't he have some respect for me?" ”

"But as far as I know, you have done a great deal of it," replied the knight, "and you still ask of him." ”

"What do you mean I have to ask him!?" The dwarf jumped up from his chair, blew his beard and glared, and said, "I'm here to help him, is there any young man who doesn't yearn for honor and fame?" ”

"Not necessarily," the knight smiled, "Arquette, if you have this attitude, don't expect me to send you a letter." ”

The look on the dwarf's face couldn't help but be very exciting for a while, both dissatisfied and reluctant, but also very unwilling, but finally softened. After the coordination of the General Association of Craftsmen, it was not easy for the ancient tower to agree with their statement, but if they couldn't find the person at that time, it would be all over.

But the other party has long been missing, and the continental league is about to be held, where will he find such a person?

If it weren't for the sudden visit of an old friend who claimed to have seen the young man, he would have been trembling in the face of the thunderous anger of the elder.

"All right," the old dwarf finally decided, "the contents of this letter, even if I gave him a gift, it is only thanks to his inspiration that I can complete this work and give it to him...... Nothing bad about it......"

The knight could not help but smile at the reluctance of his old friend.

Arquette glared at him angrily: "You must help me get it before then, or I'll be finished." ”

"Don't worry, Rogetta won't do anything to you."

"Damn it!"

The knight then put away the letter, and he tapped his hand lightly on the pocket of his coat, feeling the weight of a piece of metal there.

The light fell between his eyes through the window, in fact, if he hadn't found this thing from the armor, even if his old dwarf friend was in a hurry, he wouldn't have moved easily.

After all, compared to that incident, the Continental League is actually nothing.
