Chapter 30: Deception

"Do you say it or not!" Bridget and Wen Leisha grinded their teeth, sandwiching Xu Mo between left and right.

"I say, I say!" Forced to confess by the two violent MMs, Xu Mo immediately raised his hand in surrender, then turned his head and said to Wen Leisha solemnly, "But before I say it, you must confess one thing to me!" ”

"What's the matter?" The Elven Ranger was slightly stunned.

"Did that Crassus~ Master explain anything else to you when he asked for help?" Xu Mopi said with a smile.

"Another explanation...... Do you doubt me? Wen Leisha raised her eyebrows and heard Xu Mo's voice, "I swear in the name of the Well of the Sun that I have nothing to hide from this escort mission entrusted by Crassus!" ”

Xu Mo looked deeply at his elven companion and slowly frowned. The Well of the Sun is the source of the High Elves' power, and it can also be said that the High Elves have regained their faith after giving up their faith in the moon god Elune.

Swearing by the Well of the Sun was already the most solemn oath of the High Elves, and Xu Mo couldn't help but question it again. If it were someone else, then he should shut up at this moment, but Xu Mo was not an ordinary person, and he trusted his judgment more than the oath of the elf ranger.

"I believe you didn't hide the content of the escort mission, since Crassus didn't explain the content of the other mission, did he give you anything?" Xu Mo stared at the elf's beautiful face without relaxation, and asked again.

"You...... You still don't trust me! Wen Lisha was furious when she heard this, and stretched out her finger to point at Xu Mo's nose, "Crassus is the eldest council member of the Kenrito Mage Council, and the strongest ally in Silvermoon City, he will never betray us!" ”

"Yes or no!" Xu Mo's face sank.

The stakes are high in this mission, and perhaps Luo Ning, a nerd, can accept the mercy of others for the sake of the mission and the alliance. But for Xu Mo, he can even disobey the tasks arranged by the space, and he has to dig out the space to cater to him, how can such a person accept the mercy of others.

"......" Wen Leisha's crisp chest rose and fell violently twice, and Xu Mo's vague gaze made her feel extremely insulted. The elven ranger shook the white ponytail behind his head, turned his head and wanted to leave alone.

"Cole, I believe in Winlessa!" At this time, Bridget, who had been watching from the side, took two steps forward, tightly grabbed Wen Leisa's little hand, stood side by side with her, and spoke for the first time to defend her sworn enemy.

Xu was silent, staring at the two of them deadly, and the atmosphere between the three fell into a dead silence.

“…… Before I went on my mission, the elven elder who was with me at a meeting of the Alliance had given me a pendant, which he said had been forwarded by an elder. Other than that, I don't have anything extra on me that came out of my mission! After being silent for a long time, Wen Leisha slowly calmed down, suddenly remembered something, took off her necklace and threw it to Xu Mo, and said coldly.

Xu Mo stretched out his hand and just caught the necklace, his pupils shrank, because a prompt message came out of his soul mark:

"Samsara 228, you got a blood crystal from the red dragon Clay Ostraz. The blood crystal contains the red dragon's consciousness projection and part of the magic power, which can directly contact the red dragon through the consciousness projection, and the red dragon can also locate the location of the blood crystal and the surrounding mirror image through the consciousness projection. ”

Xu Mo carefully observed the necklace, which was made of silver and hung with a red gemstone pendant in the shape of a water droplet. After confirming his thoughts, Xu Mo's mood became relaxed, and he glanced at Wen Leisha with a slight apology.

The elven ranger did not lie to him, but the red dragon Cleostraz under the pseudonym Crassus was too cunning to give the blood crystal to Wen Leisha with his own hands, and he also turned around and used an elven elder to avoid making Wen Leisha suspicious of his true purpose.

Xu Mo could imagine it with his ass, Crassus must have said to the elf elder that this magic necklace was given to Wen Leisha as a gift, but he didn't want the elf elder to reveal that he was the giver, so as not to hurt Wen Lesa's feelings.

After all, the Mage Council and the High Elves are allies, and if they are rewarded for mutual assistance, it is not very sincere, and it is more appropriate to use the way of gifts from elders.

After thinking about all this, Xu Mo threw the necklace into his storage space as soon as he turned his hand, took it out again after more than ten seconds, and said coldly to the necklace pendant: "You should feel it, my interdimensional space bag can isolate your consciousness projection." If you don't open your mouth, your consciousness projection will stay there forever! ”

Bridget looked at Xu Mo's behavior inexplicably, but Wen Leisha pouted, still twisting her head angrily, and only aimed at the stalker with her white eyes.

Seeing that the necklace pendant was silent, Xu Mo smiled coldly, and was about to throw the necklace into the storage space again, but a sigh suddenly came from the pendant, "Young man, sometimes it's not a good thing to be too smart!" ”

"Crassus?" Xu Mo asked calmly.

"It's me!" The teardrop-shaped blood crystal pendant came from Crassus's old voice.

"Crassus...... You lied to me! Wen Leisha finally came back to her senses from her shock, the elf ranger blushed in extreme anger, remembering the dispute with Xu Mo just now, her face became pale as paper in extreme shame, shook her body, and felt dizzy.

"Wen Leisa, what's wrong with you?" Bridget next to her was startled, and quickly supported the swaying elf beauty and asked her to sit by the wall.

"Wen Leisa, I'm sorry! If I want to save the Red Dragon Queen, I must let as few people as possible know about it, so that you don't fall into the hands of Necrus and leak the entire rescue plan! Crassus's helpless voice came from the pendant.

"We're in Grimbaato, now can you tell the whole plan?" Xu Mo asked lightly.

“…… Sorry, young stalker! Now is not the time, if you can meet Alexstaza, the Red Dragon Queen, I will tell you all the plans! Crassus said solemnly, "Believe me, Wenlesa, this is vital to the Alliance!" ”

"Winresa, Bridget, what do you mean?" Xu Mo narrowed his eyes and turned his head to ask the two beauties.

"If it's for the Alliance, I'm willing to make any sacrifice!" Bridget crouched down beside Wen Leisa, her eyes were determined, and she replied without hesitation.

"I won't trust this person anymore, but Dalaran's Mage Council and Silvermoon City (the main city of the High Elves) are allies, and I can't leave my duties and tasks behind!" Winetha sat against the wall, biting her lip, hesitated for a moment, and finally said in frustration.

"You are valiant warriors, and I am sure you will be able to accomplish this mission perfectly!" Crassus breathed a sigh of relief and slowed his tone.

Xu Mo's eyes flashed, and the corners of his mouth grinned upward, like a clown's grin.

"Bridget, Winlessa, I could have secretly contacted this Crassus Arch~ Mage again, and asked him to seal my mouth with a huge benefit, helping him continue to hide the truth and his true purpose. But seeing that we've been fighting together for so long, I'm going to teach you a good lesson today, and you have to remember my kindness. ”

"Young man, what do you want to say? Do you think that rescuing the Red Dragon Queen and stopping another invasion of the orcs is not worth the slightest sacrifice? Crassus's tone became serious, and he scolded Xu Mo.

However, Xu Mo ignored Crassus, instead sat down next to Bridget and Wen Lesa, smiled and asked the two beauties a question about Luo Ning, "Do you think Luo Ning is capable of carrying out this mission?" ”

"Nope!" The two beauties replied unceremoniously.

"Then why did this righteous and awe-inspiring Crassus ~ mage choose him as the executor of the mission, and the guard he was looking for was just an elven ranger who had just been transferred, isn't it a big deal to rescue the Red Dragon Queen? Shouldn't the best and best mages and guards be found for this task? Xu Mo said calmly.

"I think Crassus ~ Master should give us an answer!" Bridget's face turned pale, and she immediately attacked the pendant.

Bridget can indeed sacrifice her life for the sake of the mission, but loyalty doesn't mean she's stupid. Knowing that Ronin was not the right person, Crassus also chose him as the task-bearer, indicating that he did not care whether Ronin succeeded or not.

Crassus's projection of consciousness did not speak, as if pondering how to answer the question. Xu Mo's question just now was very sharp, didn't you say that it was important to rescue the Red Dragon Queen, then why did you choose an unsuitable task performer?

However, Xu Mo did not give Crassus a moment to explain all this, and immediately smiled again and asked a second question about Luo Ning, which not only made the two beauties fall into deep thought, but also made Crassus finally unable to remain silent anymore.

"Bridget, do you think Ronin is smart, or is Winresa smart?"

"Of course it's Wen Leisha who is smart!" Bridget looked at Winresa with a twisted look and reluctantly complimented her nemesis.

"Humph!" Wen Leisha glanced at Xu Mo, that means, do you still need to ask this question?

"Hehe, we have all learned by now that the Grand ~ Mage of Crassus concealed his true mission in front of Wen Leisha. But why did he beat around the bush and give this magic pendant, which was consciously projected and could be positioned, to Wen Leisha, instead of Luo Ning? Does he think that Wen Leisa is even better to coax than Ronin? Xu Mo squeezed her eyes at Wen Leisha.

"Why?" Bridget and Winnesa finally couldn't help but be curious, and asked at the same time.

"Because Winnesa is an archer, and Ronin is a mage!" Xu Mo's eyes flashed, and he replied lightly.

"Shut up, don't say any more!" Crassus finally couldn't be silent anymore and shouted a warning.
