47. Collection

Before the attendant finished speaking, Ritter suddenly felt a stream of blood qi go straight to his head, his eyes were dark, and then he was fainted like this, and the middle-aged man was also spurting out a mouthful of blood directly at this time, and roared angrily: "Damn liar, I won't let you go!" โ€

And at the same time as Ritter's group collapsed, Dole and several people had already come to store the Nathan ship under the leadership of the little fat Keck? In front of the warehouse of the Isaroson float, I saw that after the huge key in the hand of the little fat man was inserted into the warehouse door, a small doorway was slowly opened, and several people from Dol also walked in one after another, at this time, they were getting closer and closer to the truth.

In the huge warehouse of the Royal Demon Martial Arts Academy, the originally dark space was illuminated by several magical flames at this time, highlighting a huge floating boat stored in the warehouse, only to see that the style of this floating boat is no different from that of ordinary floating boats, the same is a huge airbag-type airbag floating in the air, the wings stretched out on both sides of the floating boat are full of colors, as if it has withstood some dense attack, and the hull under the airbag is very new, as if it has just been transported out of the dwarven ironforge fort.

"It's big!" Corey and Dole, who saw the floatship for the first time, said in surprise, but soon met the contemptuous gazes of the rest of the people, and suddenly several black lines appeared on their foreheads.

"Here, everybody!" At this moment, the voice of Lilith, who had taken the first step, came from the side of the floatboat, so Dole and Corey just glared at the rest of the group, and then rushed in the direction of Lilith together.

Seeing that it was a huge cable hanging down from the side of the ship to the ground, it seemed to be the only way to climb up the huge floating boat, so after looking at each other, Bosie suddenly chuckled, and then said to Dole with a little provocation: "Dole, do you want to see who climbs to the hull first?!" โ€

Thereupon. After a while, several people were panting and lying on the hull of the floating boat more than five meters above the ground, panting while waiting for the two fat men to do the final showdown. I saw that the cable at this time was still more than a meter away from the hull. Corey and Keck panted as they looked at the distance that was close but far away, and then looked at each other's position at the same height as themselves, and their eyes flashed fiercely, and then they clenched their teeth and continued to climb up with difficulty.

"Whew, touch!" The sound of two heavy objects falling on the hull sounded, and I saw Keck and Corey arrive at the hull at the same time, but I saw that as soon as the two climbed up, they rolled their eyes at the same time. And then it fell like that.

"Well, it looks like I'm going to find a way to help them lose weight another day!" After feeling the vibration of the ship's hull, Doll said breathlessly, then stood up with difficulty, moved his numb legs and feet in a crack of bones, and then said to the people who looked at him helplessly, "All right! Get up and get started! โ€

Amid the wails of the crowd, Dole and his party began their investigation, with the Bossi siblings in charge of the front of the hull, and the two little fat men, Corey and Keck, in charge of the middle of the hull. Dole, along with Lilith and Mia, made their way to the back of the hull and inside the hull.

"It's so new, you see, it's so smooth to the touch. It's like you've never used it! Lilith suddenly spoke to the two behind her, who were carefully examining, immediately attracting the attention of Dorr and Mia.

"Strange, according to the information given by the Bounty Guild, this float should have been in use for three years, and it is impossible for it to maintain such a smooth side?!" Dole frowned and looked at the side of the ship that Lilith was holding, and said in surprise.

But after observing and finding nothing, Dole could only shake his head and follow the footsteps of the two women, walking towards the entrance to the cabin. โ€ฆ

"Squeak!" With a loud bang, the door to the cabin was pulled open by Dole. The two women standing behind him entered the cabin for the first time, only to see that the quiet cabin was also a brand new look. It was as if the entire float had been driven straight from Ironforge, and no trace had been found. This made Dole's doubts grow bigger and bigger.

Just when the three of them looked at each other in surprise, Dole's corner of his eyes seemed to find something, only to see Dole suddenly pull the two women, and then slowly pulled out the long sword, and walked towards the depths of the dark cabin with a solemn face, and the two women behind him also reacted, one took out a magic flame lamp, and the other pulled out a short sword to guard the rear, although the dim light of the magic flame lamp was not bright, but it also suddenly brought a trace of warmth to this dark environment.

"What is this?!" After walking forward for more than ten meters, Dole suddenly said in surprise, and Mia behind him also hurriedly stepped forward with the magic flame lamp, only to see that under the illumination of the light, a faint handprint suddenly appeared on the inner wall of the cabin in front of Dole, as if this dim handprint can only be observed in this dark environment.

"This doesn't seem to be a human handprint, does it?!" Lilith also walked up at this time, and after gesturing with her palm slightly, a few people found that the handprint printed on the cabin was actually a few points larger than the palm of a normal person, and, looking at the very thin knuckles, Dole's mind suddenly flashed, and then took out a moonlight grass collected from the space ring before the hospital assessment, and slightly approached the moonlight grass to the handprint, and suddenly, the light on the handprint actually brightened a little.

"Dark energy, this is the palm print of the undead clan!" After seeing this phenomenon, Dole said in a solemn tone while retracting the moonlight grass into the space ring.

"Undead, I remember that the passengers and sailors registered on this float boat are not all Terrans, how can there be undead handprints?!" Mia didn't react for the first time, so she asked in surprise.

"It seems that this disappearance case is not a monster in the misty forest!" Dole's solemn tone sounded, which immediately surprised both Lilith and Mia, yes, if the crew members were not undead, then the only explanation was that the undead attacked the floatship.

"But why did the undead attack this float?!" Lilith thought of this, and then asked Dole, who seemed to have a clue.

"Hehe, it seems that this has something to do with those two guys from the Rogoth Empire and the Himant Empire, someone wants to provoke the contradictions of several human empires!" Dole's eyes flashed, and then he said with a smile.

"Alright, Lilith, you and Mia go and collect some wood from the ship's side for me. Then go and ask Corey what they find, and I'll take a look here first. Dole continued, then nodded at the two of them. Then he turned and walked deeper into the cabin.

After about an hour, the Doles came out of the warehouse where the floatboats were kept. After Keck the Fat Man closes the door of the warehouse again, the stakes float is enclosed in the warehouse forever, as if waiting for time to prove its worth!

As for the people who had just returned to their residence, they already had enough evidence to prove some very important things, but not long after they sat down, Dol unfolded a huge map of the Vic Empire's borders with a smile on his face, and then used a magic pen to mark several locations on the map, one was the city of Pairos. One is the misty forest, and the other is actually the sea passage between the Paputt continent and the Alorite continent on the endless sea, and I saw Dole connect the three locations into a huge triangle, and then put a heavy stroke on a verdant place that represents the forest near this triangle, and then said: "Everyone is ready to prepare for the past few days, and the next stop, our goal, is it!" โ€โ€ฆ

I saw that on the broad map, the place that had been dotted by Dole, there were a few large characters written on it. The Forest of the Rifts!!

The Rift Forest, as a vast forest adjacent to the Misty Forest, is not as rampant as high-level demonic beasts as the Misty Forest. But it was still a high-level demonic beast forest that only high-level bounty hunters could enter at will, and even in the deepest part of that forest, there was the existence of terrifying demonic beasts such as eighth-order demonic beasts.

At this time, on the Plains of Raiding, a slightly luxurious carriage was heading towards the paradise of high-level bounty hunters and the hell of low-level bounty hunters.

"E-rank advanced quest, collect brute bear bile, this is still up to you. Dole, yes. Well, there's an interesting task here. Tier D low-level mission, looking for the swordsman Teresa? He-Man, yo, he's still a beautiful swordsman! Bosie was boredly flipping through the bounty in his hand, and when he saw the mission information displayed in magic on it, he quipped boredly.

"Hehe, it seems that this beautiful swordsman should be the most likely task for us to complete!" Dole said with a chuckle when he saw Bossina drooling as he stared at the bounty.

"Ahem, please pay attention to the two of you, okay? There are three big beauties behind him! Just as Dole and Bosie smiled at each other, Lilith's grumbling voice came from inside the carriage.

"Mia and my sister are big beauties, but you're just a beautiful man at best, aren't you, Dor! Yes! Perhaps too carried away, Bosse blurted out the words without thinking about it, and suddenly, Dole felt that a volcano in the carriage was about to erupt watching them, so he hurriedly gave way to the side, and sure enough, before Bosie could wait for Dole's reply, a snow-white and delicate arm "lightly" pushed on his body leaning against the side of the carriage, and saw Bosy maintain a very surprised expression, and then fell off the carriage, leaving only a scream.

"Ah, I'm really embarrassed, but Bosi's big body should be fine~!" Dole still maintained a sluggish expression on his face, and when he heard Lilith's soft voice deliberately pretended, he suddenly felt a tumbling in his stomach, but he still struggled to endure it, after all, for the peak cultivation of the Bossi swordsman, this little thing really couldn't hurt him, but it was inevitable that he would be discouraged.

After seeing Dole's forbearant expression, Lilith smiled softly again, and then returned to the carriage, and then burst into laughter from the three women.

"Ah, are we there?!" Just when Dole shook his head lightly and wiped the cold sweat on his head, the heads of the two fat men suddenly stretched out from the roof of the car, it turned out to be Keck and Corey who were driven to the roof of the car by the three girls to bask in the sun because they were too big, and the two who were supposed to be playing a small bet may have fallen asleep on the roof of the car after a while, but the snoring sound that came into the car through the roof also made the three girls speechless for a while, so there was Lilith's outburst just now.

"It's still far away!" Dole looked at the two fat men who were happy with the encounter and said. Then Bossi ran up with a body of dust, and climbed into the carriage.

"The most poisonous... It's okay, I was careless just now! Bosie was about to complain. But this time, he learned wisely, and saw Lilith's smiling eyes staring at him again. Hurriedly changed his words.

"By the way, Dore, you haven't said why we're going to the Rip Forest?! Isn't it time to go to the Misty Forest?! At this moment, Mia stepped out of the carriage, stretched, and showed off her beautiful figure, causing both Dole and Bosie to drool, but when Mia looked down. The two of them regained their expressions of looking straight ahead, and listened to Mia's question. โ€ฆ

"Heh, Mia, think about it, what can you find in the undead handprint we found in the cabin, and the new floatship?" Dorr said with a smile on his face, but after Mia thought about it for a long time, he still couldn't figure it out, so Dorr explained.

"First of all. After you left, I found a lot of undead handprints in those cabins, and most of them were found in the living quarters where the crew lived. Coupled with the new appearance, I suddenly thought that this float might not be the missing Nathan? Isharosen, but, on second thought, why did the guys who caused the disappearance do this? โ€

"So, just as I was walking up to the hull deck, I suddenly noticed the float and Nathan? The Isaroson is a production type dwarven float of the same model, so to speak. Except for the markings on the bow, everything else is exactly the same. So I got to the bow of the boat, and it was engraved with Nathan? I looked at it from the deck of the Isarosson, and as I expected. There were still some faint fluctuations of magic left there, oh, of course this is a credit to my domain, but it also shows that the guy who engraved the words on it is very powerful. โ€

"And based on the handprints of the undead on the floating boat, I specially asked Keck to collect the movements of the undead on the side, and found that just two months before the disappearance of the floating boat here, there was a big chaos in the undead clan, it is said that a group of rebels dissatisfied with the emperor's rule robbed a military warehouse, and there was a floating boat that had just arrived at the undead in it, so this disappearance of the floating boat must be caused by man, but that person is also very smart, Knowing how to use the previous few float boat accidents to disguise his purpose. โ€

At this moment, Bosie interrupted Dore half-incomprehensibly and asked, "However, even if it can be proved that this incident was man-made, what does it have to do with the Broken Forest?" โ€

Still smiling, Doll said, "Think about it, if you were the one in charge of this conspiracy, how would you design such a disappearance that looks like an accident?" โ€

At this time, Mia's eyes flashed, and she seemed to understand something, and then said: "Yes, if I design this case, I must make others believe that the float boat had an accident in the Misty Forest, and attract most of the attention to the Misty Forest, so that I can achieve the effect of covering up my true purpose." โ€

"Mia is right, that's why this float is in the Misty Forest, and not only to convince outsiders that the event took place in the Misty Forest, but also the real Nathan? The people on board the Isarosen are to think they're in the Misty Forest, you see. Dole said as he pulled out the map he had carved a few markings.

"This is the main passage on the Endless Sea, and the fastest way for the Undead Empire to reach the continent of Alorit, and this is the original Nathan? The route that the Isarosen is going to take, you see, extends the route of the Endless Sea, and it is easy to find that the intersection between it and the route that the floatship is going to take is the Misty Forest, so if I cause an accident here or something like a weather change, for the sake of the safety of the floatboat, the first mate on the float will definitely bypass here and enter the Misty Forest from the direction of the Rift Forest. โ€

Seeing this, everyone also reacted one by one, only to see Bosi pointing to the slightly curved line and saying: "Then the floating boat from the Endless Sea will enter the Misty Forest first, and follow the original route, and the real floating boat will turn to the sky above the Rift Forest, and as long as someone creates a foggy weather on the Split Forest, then the crew on the ship will definitely think that they have entered the Misty Forest, because this line is not even good for the first mate himself to judge the distance, so." As long as the float is intercepted in the Rift Forest, and the other float is used as bait, it will be treated as a real float after it disappears, and no one will suspect the human factor. โ€โ€ฆ

"Not bad. However, it is a hundred secrets. Those undead still forgot the difference between them and humans in the darkness of the night, which is why we rushed to the Rift Forest, and I believe that the investigation team is also on the way to the Rift Forest! โ€

And just as the few people were discussing, in front of the Split Barbarian Forest, a team of well-equipped bounty teams was lined up behind a middle-aged man. The middle-aged man looked at the mist that spread through the forest, smiled self-deprecatingly, and then took the lead in riding a horse and leading the bounty team behind him into the forest, the sunlight shone through the gap in the forest on the middle-aged man's battle armor engraved with magic patterns, illuminating the battle armor and also illuminating a medal with a unique structure and a large A-shaped inscription engraved on it.

About half a day's journey to the southwest of the city of Pairos, there is a vast forest that stretches for tens of thousands of miles, and more than a hundred years ago, the Vic Empire was only a small principality on the continent of Alolit, and it was only after an earth-shattering war here that the Vic Empire began to move towards a strong empire.

"A hundred years ago, the great battle that was famous in military history was named the Battle of the Crackers. At that time, the largest legion of the Duchy of Vic was led by the commander to the border of the Duchy to settle a rebellion led by a neighboring country, but just as the legion marched into the forest. Suddenly, there was a stir in the forest, rushing out of a group of panicked enemy troops, just when the commander of the legion was surprised, a group of huge demonic beasts, the Jungle Bear, chased out of the forest, just like that, the enemy army that originally used all the country's forces to ambush the largest legion of the Principality of Vic was completely wiped out because of the invasion of this territory belonging to the Dense Forest Bear, and the Principality of Vic also took this opportunity to quickly annex the neighboring countries and fight everywhere, which laid the border of the current Vic Empire! โ€

A carriage driving in front of the road leading to the Rift Forest. Corey was looking at the bounty book in his hand, and he read and spoke the information about the history of the Rift Forest.

"Due to the proximity to the Misty Forest of the Fierce Land on the mainland. Therefore, the level of the Warcraft in the Cracked Barbarian Forest is generally high, and there are more than 4,000 types of Warcraft found in it so far. Among them, there are more than 170 kinds of fifth-order demonic beasts above the fifth order, and there are even bounty hunters who claim that there is an eighth-order demonic beast in the depths of the forest, the existence of the Golden Split Blood Python. โ€

Corey just finished reading the history, turned the page, and then said in a very shocked tone, that is, when Corey just finished speaking, the carriage also slowly stopped, Corey raised his eyes in surprise and was shocked by the data described in the bounty manual, and suddenly found that there was already a vast and boundless forest in front of him.

"Alright, we're here, let's all come down!" At this time, Dore's voice sounded slowly, and in a few moments, several people unloaded all the equipment from the carriage, and Bosi pulled the carriage behind a hidden bush and tied it up, and then everyone walked into the vast forest with light clothing.

"It's about half a day's way from the misty area of the forest, so we'll see what bounties we can do while we're on our way." Dole said, spreading the map in his hand.

So, all the way down, everyone is as casual as a tour, after all, the worst strength of several people in the Starlight Bounty Group now has the level of high-level swordsmen, generally if nothing else, ordinary fifth-order demonic beasts cannot cause damage to the team, as for why no one can break through the swordsman and magician level except for Dole, it may be because everyone has not carried out that kind of understanding of life and death during this time, but for this, several people also smiled and shook their heads.

Just when the Dole and the others entered the Cracked Forest, on a small hillside in the depths of the Cracked Forest, a man with injuries all over his body was gritting his teeth and smearing some of the medicinal herbs he had just collected on the wound, and suddenly, a pain that tore his body suddenly came, but the man's face did not change and he bandaged the wound with a piece of cloth.

Suddenly, the man seemed to feel something, and the god condensed slightly, and saw a few bloody figures flashing in the dense forest under the hillside, and the man's eyes shrank when he saw those bloody figures, and he hurriedly concealed the gaze that looked at the past, and did not attract the attention of those bloody figures.

However, the figure of those few blood sรจ turned their heads fatefully, and galloped towards the hillside, and when he saw this, the man hurriedly stepped on a pile of dead leaves under his feet, and then saw that a hole that was not deep suddenly appeared on the hillside, and the man hurriedly lay down in the hole, and then let the fallen leaves cover himself.
