Looking at the roll of military straw mats that he found in the grass, and recalling the suspicious traces of the open space found at the bottom of the valley before, inexplicably, Rococo hit a spirit.

With the strength of the plague mage Bekaz, it is difficult to erase all the traces left by the undead legion he created in one place in a short period of time, but it is by no means impossible, but it is definitely difficult to erase the traces left by these undead in life.

It is clear that there was once a camp in this valley, not the Lancarus soldiers who had come to search yesterday, but earlier, more likely, an army, and a regular Lancaros army, which had been stationed in this extremely hidden valley. This army is unknown to anyone, at least there is no record of it in the Lancarus military, and Bekaz took advantage of this, unwittingly strangling this army in this hidden valley, secretly transforming them into his own undead army.

Who, for what purpose, would have hidden such a secret army in the valley so secretly? And since it was so hidden, how did Bekaz know about the existence of this army?

Lancaros City Lord Farouo is definitely the biggest suspect, originally because this time Bekaz was able to receive the message of the Lancaros military in advance, and the undead legion in the valley was withdrawn and the traces were cleaned up, Rococo was suspicious of Farouo, and now, the existence of this secret army has increased the suspicion of Farouo geometrically.

From the recruitment of manpower to the supply of weapons and logistics, there are only a handful of people who have the ability and authority to be able to do everything in Lancarlos County, whether it is in the treasury or in other places, and Farouo, who is the lord of Lancaros and is also the leader of the Lancaros County Council faction, is definitely one of the few people who have the ability to do this.

But then again, according to the game information of Rococo's previous life, it was the city lord Farouo who finally defeated Bekaz in the course of the game without her participation in the previous life, if he was really Bekaz's accomplice, then why did he do it? With him and Becazli joining forces, it is really possible that Lancarus in the previous life will fall directly.

And while it is not known who raised this secret army for what purpose, if it was only to create an army of plague undead for Bekaz, it would not have to take much trouble. For example, if Farouo really colluded with Bekaz, he only needed to pretend to give a few stupid orders at the beginning of the undead outbreak, and he could send the soldiers and civilians of Bekaz several towns for nothing...... Or is it true that the people who raised this army are not the same people who colluded with Bekaz?

Rococo felt that her brain was messed up, she felt that she had too little information, and then she felt that she had too much information but didn't know how to analyze it, but she was sure of one thing anyway.

Whether it is the raid and search of this valley by the Lancarus Army, or the existence of the secret army originally stationed in this valley, the only people who know this information may be the high-level NPC officials in Lancarlos City, which means that if Bekaz has an inner ghost in Lancarros, it is very likely that this inner ghost is a high-ranking official in Lancarlos City.

Thinking of this, Rococo couldn't help but beat his head in annoyance.

The previous incident of the Reborn Mu Yun had already given her a warning not to overly trust the information on the game forums in her previous life, but this time she still made the same mistake after all. Obviously, due to the sudden occurrence of the undead invasion plot in the previous life, even if the players combed and retraced the plot afterwards, they only collected all kinds of information about Bekaz himself, and there is likely to be such a thing as Bekaz in Lancaros City, but there is no revelation in the forum materials of the previous life, so Rococo did not envision and take precautions in this regard at all when he conceived his plan.

No, she had to do something more, and once the matter was put on hold, it would only make Lancarros City a little more vigilant, but it would not completely expose Bekaz's conspiracy. Thinking like this, Rococo quickly decided what he needed to do, and turned around and ran in the direction of the valley.

At the same time as Rococo was heading to the valley, in the city of Lancarros, in a secluded secret room out of nowhere.

The room was very shabby, with only one table, and a fairly bright oil lamp on the table, barely illuminating the table and the surrounding area. And on one side of the table, a mysterious man with his whole body hidden under a black robe sat there in silence.

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, somewhere on the side of the secret room, there was a sound of a mechanism starting, and then, the outline of a stone door suddenly appeared on the wall that was originally sealed, and then the stone door gradually moved open, and an old man in a gray-green robe walked in.

Plague mage Bekaz, if Rococo was present, she would have been able to recognize Bekaz if she had seen Bekaz in the game materials of her previous life.

Bekaz's appearance is not actually like the traditional impression of a gloomy and mysterious necromancer who looks like a skeleton, but a rather burly and majestic old man, and if you remove the ornament skull necklace on his body and the skeletal staff in his hand, Bekaz will be misunderstood as an experienced and strong old mercenary in a minute.

Bekaz, who walked into the secret room, saw the black-robed man sitting next to the table, and was stunned for a moment, and then showed an undisguised mocking expression.

"It's just the two of us here, why are you dressed like this?"

The black-robed man's reply to this was only a cold snort, but Bekaz didn't care about the other party's attitude and didn't continue to taunt, obviously accustomed to the other party's style of not wanting to bother a little on topics unrelated to the main idea, and stepped to the long table, Bekaz shook his robe, and sat down in a posture that was a bit big for the general image of a mage.

"Okay, let's talk, what's going on?"

The black-robed man spoke in a deep voice.

“…… Oops, you didn't clean up the valley thoroughly. ”

"That's because you only gave me a few hours," Bekaz took over unhappily, "It took me a lot of effort to get the legions there to be removed in time and all the aura they left behind, thanks to the fact that I dabbled in some spatial spells when I was younger, otherwise everything would have been exposed now." I don't understand, it shouldn't be too hard for you to stop that news in the middle of the way. ”

"That would make people suspicious."

"How is it possible, the vast majority of people in this world have lost their own souls, except for those idiot-like lines that have no thoughts of their own at all, who will doubt you? Or are you worried about the quirky adventurers who came out of nowhere? They don't even care about us, the ones they say...... Npi ...... What kind of word, these adventurers only regard this place as a game, and everyone on the continent of Emissia as fools whose souls have been sealed by the goddess of creation, huh. ”

"I'm not referring to the girl who came to snitch," the black-robed man said unhurriedly, "I'm talking about the guy hiding behind the girl. ”

Bekaz was stunned.

"I don't understand what you mean."

"Of course you don't understand, you always keep saying that those adventurers underestimate everyone on the continent of Eumeria, but in fact you also underestimate those adventurers, so you never pay attention to the information you get from them...... Someone was trying to expose us through the adventurers, and he was purging the adventurers to frequent the places where we might be exposed, and this girl should have discovered the secrets of the valley as expected. ”

Bekaz's face finally darkened.

"You mean, that person is just like us ......"

“…… Quite possibly, no, it is for sure. ”

Exhaling a breath, Bekaz's face did not feel unhappy because of the news of the black-robed man, but seemed to be a little inexplicably excited.

"Do you know who this man is?"

"I don't know yet, but there are a few things that are certain, first, the other party has a strong ability to disguise; Second, the other party is quite aware of your layout in various places, and it is likely that they have been tracking down the plague you have planted or have seen something from it; Third, judging from the way the other party chose to hide behind the scenes and manipulate the adventurers, he must have seen clearly that there was me in the upper echelons of Lancarros, but he was not sure who I was. ”

Speaking of this, the black-robed man paused.

“…… Although I already have a few objects of suspicion, I am not sure, during this time I will find a way to test several possible targets in turn, and you, to stay in the city for the time being, after all, I don't want to be exposed, so if I really find a target, you still need to take action to solve it. ”

Bekaz spread his hands.

"I don't care, but what about the plans outside?"

"Originally, the plan for the undead raid was not to capture Lancarros, although it has now deviated from its original trajectory due to interference, but fortunately we reacted in time. You haven't been able to clean up the valley, but it's not necessarily a bad thing, and I've figured out the alternatives to steer things around, and maybe it's easier to get to where we were in the first place. What's more, you and I both know very well what is happening in this world and what kind of situation it is, and compared to our original plan, you must also think that it is more important to harvest a new fragment of Godhead, don't you? ”
