The capital of Millae, Yago, is a huge metropolis with a population of one million people, and the central royal district is surrounded by five other districts, the upper floor is the royal palace where the Emperor Millai lived, the middle level is the highest administrative headquarters of all the large-scale industries of the whole of Yago, and the lower level is the meeting point of the traffic of the five urban districts, and the staggered roads, spiraling staircases, and platforms on vertical slides fill this huge vertical space, which is also the only way to the upper royal district and the palace. The five districts are the most prosperous business district in Yago, the teaching area of the highest universities in Mirai, the industrial area that is responsible for researching the lost technology of Mirai and providing energy to the whole city of Yago, and the two residential areas where the architectural style can be seen as a clear class, and the commercial district and the residential area next to it where rich politicians gather are in the "White Night Cataclysm" Fortunately, it was not the moonlight tree that grew because of the timely prevention of the spread of the disaster, but now it has become a place with a unique scenery in the two urban areas, especially the commercial area, because of the convenience of logistics and transportation, the largest branch of the "night owl" in Millais, and the new headquarters of the "Yago Academy of Sciences", the highest scientific institution in Millae, which is dedicated to restoring the science and technology of the past, are located here.

Walking through the streets of Yago, no matter where you are in, you can see a white tower in the royal palace that far exceeds the height of all buildings, it is called the Ring Forest Tower, which is the center of all the large cities in Milai, which is not only a barrier used by the city-state of Milai to stop the spread of the White Night Forest, but also a sign of friendship between Milai and Atra. Every year, Atra sends three specially selected mages to the Ringing Towers of the city-states of Milai, who in turn will inject their magic into a large milky white stone pillar in the top room of the tower, which will produce an invisible energy field that will prevent ordinary trees from becoming moonlight trees. Because of the existence of the Ring Forest Tower, many cities in the dense forest can still see the daily sunshine, and every time the magic of the three sending mages is close to running out, it is a year old, and the newly sent mages will come to replace them, and the grateful residents will also flock to the streets on this day to hold grand events to welcome and bid farewell to several mages, and over time it has become a unique festival in each city.

Today, the shopping street of Yago is full of lights, and with three new mages to come, the ceremony of being the capital of Millai is definitely the grandest. But in the conference room of the City Guard Branch on Decree Street in the dense forest district, there were three people sitting side by side at a long table, looking at a document in their hands and being silent, the sunlight shining through the window made the room a little dim, and the dull atmosphere and the noise from the street in the distance seemed to be two worlds.

"That's the report, and both Bai Hui and Yago's night owl have confirmed that they have not received regular contact. The man sitting on the far left was the first to break the silence.

"The two men whose bodies were not found may still be alive. The man sitting in the middle put down the papers in his hand.

"In addition to the report sent yesterday, the three teams responsible for the transportation were all wiped out! At your request, the people I sent were the elite of the Royal Guard! Such a huge sacrifice...... If you don't give an explanation, how will I explain it to Your Majesty?!" The man on the far right slapped the papers in his hand on the table, turned his head and shouted at the people sitting nearby, the light from the window hitting his face, an old man with a white beard and a serious face, a straight white uniform with a general's epaulette pinned to his shoulders.

"There is nothing wrong with this definitely targeted attack, but there are no other clues at the scene other than the corpses of people after killing each other, this is really ......" The middle-aged man named Kurarous who was yelled at didn't care, picked out his right ear and picked up the file he had put down again to look at.

"The only hope at the moment is to find the third team that set off from White Radiant City...... Regarding the two missing guards, I sent a search request in my personal name, but the search team from Bai Hui reported that they had not seen anyone on the way, and now they were searching in the direction of Yago along the original route of the third team...... "The person on the far left suddenly remembered something and turned his head" There is still something that does not appear in the report, I can only tell the two adults myself......"

The other two heard this and looked at the person on the far left.

"Unlike the other two squads mentioned in the previous report, the scene of the third squad's murder is said to have traces of a very fierce fight, not to mention that the three guards at the scene and the two missing are all full moon level experienced in the night owl, and ......" He paused and thought about this.

"Don't worry, Gray, it's just the three of us here, just say anything. Kurarous put down the papers in his hand again.

"Every Full Moon Guardian Night Owl will have a detailed file, and among the corpses at the scene is a female guard named Ewen, the wife of one of the two missing guards...... At the same time, she is also an Atallah. ”

"What are you talking about!?" Kurarous was startled when he heard this...... Are you sure about this, Gray?" he frowned at the bespectacled young man named Gray on the left with a small pigtail tied at the back of his head.

"I'm the night owl's supreme manager in Yago," Gray patted the armband on his left arm, which featured a feather and sword crossed before the full moon, "it's true...... And she also has a personal recommendation letter from Queen Atla, which is kept in the night owl's headquarters in Omain, and you will know it when you look it up. Gray said, looking at Kurarus.

Kuralus sighed and turned his head to look at the generals on the side: "General Fernand, this matter is very serious, there are actually Atra people who died in the actions of the Millai army, no matter what the reason, they will definitely not stand idly by...... If the Atlahs find out what we shipped again......"

"Lord Kuralus?" Gray looked at Kurarous and Fernand in deep thought.

"Mr. Gray, if your team finds those two men and asks them to wait in the nearest town, our Royal Guard will send someone to take them over, and the reward will be doubled. Fernand looked at Gray and said.

Gray couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Fernand's words, and then immediately returned to normal: "I know. ”

"Then, this time things will be like this first, Mr. Gray, you should go back first, and report any new news directly to General Fernand. He smiled and said to Gray.

"Okay, Lord Kuralus, then I'll quit first. Gray stood up and saluted Kurarus and Fernand, then turned and walked out of the room.

"Let me guess...... Do you want to silence it?" After a moment of silence, Kuralus looked down at the report in front of him and suddenly spoke, and behind him stood up and walked to the window to look at Fernand outside.

Looking out the window, Gray had already walked out of the gate of the City Guard Branch, Fernand said, "The people of Atra will certainly not believe our explanation, and I do not believe that the culprits of the cataclysm can keep it a secret, although they may not be able to deal with Gray...... But there is no other way. He looked back at Kurarus, "But I'm more worried about one more thing than I am about keeping my mouth shut. ”

"What's the matter?" said Kuralus, looking a little surprised, and looked back at Fernand, who was standing in front of the window.

"I've been thinking about it just now...... If this attack was planned by the Atlahs, how could it be that with the strength of the Royal Guard, all three squads were wiped out in such an inexplicable way of death. If it was the White Night Guards who were in and out of the group, then the other two squads wouldn't make sense. The last situation is the bandits and strange beasts in the White Night Forest, but it is a reorganized royal guard team, and it stands to reason that there is no need to be afraid...... "Fernand bowed his head and groaned" The people who attacked the escort team were obviously targeting the few things we transported, which is true, so after listening to Gray's words just now, I was wondering if the traces of the battle on the scene of the third team could be because there were Atra people in the team...... But even the Atlahs didn't spare ......" he looked up at Kuralus: "Maybe the enemy attacking us is strong and has an attack ability that we don't know, maybe not Atlah's but has similar abilities." ”

After listening to Fernand's words, Kurarous couldn't help but clap his hands: "Tut-tut, I've known you for so long, and you are only known for your strength in the forbidden army...... and then his expression became solemn: "If your conjecture is correct, then we will only be more disadvantaged." ”

"What do you mean?" Fernand asked.

Kurarous's eyebrows moved, "Where did all your ingenuity go just now?" and then he also stood up and walked to Fernand's side and looked out the window, "If your guess is correct, then this enemy has at least the strength to easily destroy three Forbidden Army squads, and at the same time knows the true purpose of the things we are transporting, and may even use this to sow discord between us and Atallah......" He looked at the noisy streets in the distance, where people were preparing for the upcoming festival. "He has abilities similar to those of the Atlases, and we can't call for help from the Atlases, and if one of the wrong moves angers the Atlases, the countless city-states of Mirai will lose their barrier to stop the White Nights Forest before we find a way to use that technology......"

"I'll follow up on this myself. Fernand immediately turned and walked towards the door.

"Fernand!" Curarus called out to him.

Fernand turned to look at Kurarous.

"We can't kill those two survivors and bring them back alive, we must know who the enemy of this is!"

Fernand nodded, turned around and opened the door and walked out.

Listening to Fernand's vanishing footsteps, Kurarous sighed and looked back at the dense forest not far from the window, feeling as if it were the shadow of a great crisis, which now enveloped Yago and even the whole of Milai.
