Chapter 405: The Other Party's Investigation
The Land of Eternal Night.
Looking up, the dark night sky was like a deep curtain, heavy and breathless. Three bright red blood moons hung high in the sky, and a faint glow shone on the land in front of them. Corinna retracted her gaze and couldn't help but reach out to press her forehead, feeling a burst of headaches, not only because as an elf, she was not used to this kind of death under the eternal night, but also because she was helpless about the current situation.
After the mediation of Nalya and Xigal, the three parties finally decided to set up a joint investigation team to investigate the disappearance of Her Royal Highness Irene, the princess of the moon, because this matter is indeed very important, so all parties have sent quite a lot of representatives to investigate, not to mention Rod and Ion, even Lilian, after learning about this matter from Sonya, also sent Lydia over as a representative of the country of law, Corinna is naturally among them.
Now this investigation team can be said to be star-studded, and the representative sent by the representative of the Night Nation is Garcia the "Master", and the other two demon generals do not show up. Among them, Barende is still recuperating, and Shaliye, as a fallen angel, not to mention that he himself has no interest in this kind of thing, even if he comes, I am afraid that it will be the rhythm of the first war with Lydia, and as for the joint investigation or something, it will be left behind. As for Eswell——— who are already dead and can't die anymore, there is no need to mention them.
And the representative of Rhodes's side is Alice, as the demon god of history, if she wants to perfectly reconstruct and trace the clues left by Irene, her ability to trace history is indispensable. Of course, it's a good thing that Barende didn't come, otherwise I am afraid that no one would be comfortable to see the person who casually lost an arm dangling in front of him like this.
Although Lydia was not directly involved in this incident, her presence was also important. Because in the entire Dragon Soul Continent, there is to be no question of who is the closest to Irene's thinking circuit. Then only this angel grows up. The two of them have similar interests and similar ways of thinking, so it is not unacceptable for Lydia to join——— it is no wonder that people like Irene and Lydia with their own unique aesthetic concepts are really not understood by ordinary people.
And Corinna, as a representative of the country of France, is more of a mediator. In order to avoid any conflicts between the two sides in the process of cooperation——— Corinna soon found that this was a real headache for her.
Although each of the four parties sent representatives, the investigation team was naturally led by Ion the Dark Dragon and Rhodes the Void Dragon. As a result, Corinna was helpless because the two seemed to be born to look at each other inconveniently, and they had a small quarrel for three days and a big quarrel for five days, or Ian accused Rhodes of deliberately confusing the content of the investigation. Either Rod scolded Ion for deliberately distorting the facts. is obviously the dragon of creation, but it turns out like a hooligan scolding the street, and it looks like a full-scale conflict is about to break out at every turn. This frightened Corinna was trembling, and what was worse was that although the country of France was in charge of mediation. But Siagle and Nalaya turned around and went back after handing over the work to Corinna. With a small archer who has just stepped into the legendary realm, how can he deal with the two creation dragons!
What's worse is that the subordinates on both sides don't seem to have much reaction to this, as one of the four demon generals of the Night Country, Garcia can only unconditionally obey the orders of the dark dragon, pointing east and not west. Expecting him to convince the Dark Dragon is delusional. On the other hand, Alice is not interested in this kind of thing, and according to her own words, it doesn't matter if she fights it or not. Anyway, as long as the dark dragon dared to make a move, they would immediately fight back. And Lydia, although she smiled on the surface and said that she would work hard, it was obvious. The Lord Angel will definitely take the opportunity to go to the country of the night——— the enmity between the two sides is not over yet.
So in this unbalanced state, Corinna was the only one busy going around. The current situation of the investigation team is that Ion and Rhodes each bury their heads in their own investigations, then explain, and then slap the table and scold each other for the wrong findings, and then there are various "declarations of war". Corinna then came out to dissuade her, and then the two sides resumed their own investigations............... What the hell is this?
"Hmph, that bastard must be thinking about it right now."
Rhodes threw the information in his hand on the table, looked at the eternal night in front of him, and snorted coldly. He and Ion were actually very clear. This investigation team is actually a disguise, although both sides are under the banner of "investigating the disappearance of the Moon Princess Irene", but no matter which side is drunk, it is not the intention of drinking. Although the gap between the two sides is huge, there is one result that they agree to in the end, and that is that Irene disappeared in the Night Realm, close to the border. That's why Rhodes and others came here to investigate. But in this way, it means that they have entered the home field of the Dark Dragon, where the power of the Dark Dragon is naturally the most powerful, of course, with the level of Rhodes and the Six Pillars Demon God, this level of suppression is completely indifferent to them. Unfortunately, it was clear that Ion didn't know this.
And now Ion's main consideration is obviously not the life or death of his sister, it should be said that from his standpoint, it doesn't matter if Irene is dead, or better. Because if Irene dies, then the position of 'Moon' that was vacant due to her disappearance will be automatically restored, and at that time, there will be no need to think about the order of the Dragon Soul Continent. So Ion actually didn't care about his sister's life or death, what he valued more was whether he could use this opportunity to fight or even eliminate Rod's new force. After all, now that others are in the Night Country, if Ion is in trouble, under the shroud of eternal night, the Void Dragon's ability may not be as strong as he appears.
And Rod's thoughts are similar to Ion's, although he also has a certain affection for Irene, but that's just the end of it, Irene didn't go to Rod's bed, and Rod didn't have to be responsible for her. For Rod, it would be better if the talks fell apart this time, because then he would have enough legitimate reasons to kill or maim the Dark Dragon, paving the way for his next "Dragon Soul Continent Crossing Plan". And Rhodes also has his own little abacus in his heart, it's a big deal to get Irene back after cleaning up Ion, and let Irene lead the Night Country when the time comes, and then his troubles will be completely solved.
Although Ion and Rhodes each had their own intentions, they eventually chose to stay put, which was the only reason why Corinna, a small legendary elven marksman, could dissuade both sides. That is, Rod and Ion still have scruples——— no matter what Rod says, it depends on the face of Siager and Nalaya. No matter how provocative you are, you can't do it yourself. And Ion is thinking about the mysterious woman who appeared in front of him before, although I don't know what she has to do with Rod, but that girl is likely to be an important person in the Void Realm, war is an extension of politics, so no matter how you do it, your side must take the initiative. In this way, even if the conditions are negotiated at that time, there will be no big problem.
In other words, both Rod and Ion are now playing a dangerous balance game of "we will never shoot the first shot, but we will never be afraid of the other side firing the first shot". This is also the reason why they will scold each other without scruples about what they will do, in order to provoke the other party to lose their minds and then do it, and then they will have no scruples.
But for now, with little success, Ion himself is a calm and rational monarch, although conceited. But it's not a hot-blooded idiot. And Rhodes is not to mention, as the president of the largest guild in the game, it is not the first time that he has been sneered at and scolded on the Internet, and he also has a wealth of experience in fighting enemies.
Of course, regardless of what the two sides think in private, on the surface, they still continue to "investigative action", after all, they have not completely torn their faces. But Rhodes was confident enough, even if Ion tore his face. I am also sure enough to make next year's day his death day!
“……………… Brother, about the previous thing. Seven Love and I have already come to a conclusion. ”
And just as Rhodes complained, his sister's voice came to his head again.
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Rod was stunned. Previously, after returning to Grantia, Rhodes brought Seven Love over and asked her and her sister to investigate what was wrong with Canary and Little Bubblegum's Phantom Guard system, and why the level proficiency of the two would decrease. This kind of thing Rod couldn't do on his own. And after carefully observing the state of the two, they don't seem to have been cursed, so this is outside the scope of Rod's treatment. So Rod decisively shook his hand and handed over the matter to his sister and Qilian to deal with. After all, if there is a bug in the system, the developer and GM should put a patch.
"What conclusion?"
"Seven Love and I have investigated the order of the Dragon Soul Continent, and everything is normal. Including the planes of the lower realm——— but according to our records, there was a period of time when Sister Canary and Bubbles did have problems with their bodies, how to say it......... Well, it's like having two identical data, but for some unknown reason the data is misaligned, although it is quickly trimmed. However, because the system could not find the differences in the same data, there were problems in the trimming process. And as a result, part of the original data was also taken away, which caused the skill proficiency level of the two to decrease. ”
"I see."
Hearing this, Rod thought for a moment and quickly understood what his sister meant. It's like someone playing an online game, and then using the same account on two servers A and B to create two characters with the same name, the same gender, and the same class. Then the characters on server A are full of level and equipment, while server B is a trumpet with no level and no equipment, but because of some system error, the character information of server A and the character information of server B overlapped, and the server corrected the error in time. However, because there is no difference between the two numbers, some of the equipment skills and money belonging to the characters of server A have been transferred to server B. Of course, this kind of problem has only appeared in those shoddy online games, like the Dragon Soul Continent———— this kind of problem shouldn't appear?
"Did you find the reason?"
"At the moment, it seems that there is an external force that is trying to connect............ It's like someone is trying to hack into the game server, and Seven Love and I are looking for its source, brother, be careful, I always feel that the disappearance of Her Highness Irene is unusual........."
"Uh-huh..............."
Hearing his sister's reminder, Rod also nodded, he also felt that something was not right. It's no wonder that Rhodes attaches so much importance to it, after all, now with the efforts of him and his sister, the order of the Dragon Soul Continent has basically been fused with the original game system data, in short, the current Dragon Soul Continent is a bit similar to the World Continent in the Matrix Empire, the outside is supported by various data rules, and the new rules are formed by the World Continent. Therefore, in this regard, he is also quite concerned.
"It's rude, Your Majesty Rod."
And just as Rod was pondering, suddenly the curtain of the tent was lifted, and then, Garling walked in, and she looked at Rod before speaking.
"Her Highness Lydia has found some clues about the disappearance of Her Highness Irene."
"Oh?"
Hearing this, Rod raised his eyebrows.
"Take me to see it."
Then, he spoke.
