Chapter XXVIII

Tolan's face was as gloomy as a cold pool, and his sharp gaze stared at the cave in front of him that his men had searched repeatedly, and there was no other person, because the target had run away from under their noses again!

"Captain, according to the results of our on-site investigation, the other party left this cave a few hours ago, judging from some of the discarded living utensils, there is no doubt that Alex and another blasphemost named Ann have lived here for at least two months, but the most strange thing is that we found a lot of fresh food traces in the domestic garbage......" One of the temple guards in charge of surveying the scene cautiously replied to Tolan. "As we all know, there is no way to get usable food and water in the Demon Sealing Tower, and it is impossible to sustain two months based on the amount of food and water they carry, which shows ......"

"There's outsiders to help them, right?" said Tolan, turning his head to look at the guard.

"I don't rule it out. The guard said in a cold sweat on his cheeks. "But I'm more inclined to Alex to somehow hide from everyone and leave the Sealed Tower, and quietly return to Bella Oka to buy food and water. ”

Tolan's brow furrowed even deeper when he heard this.

"What is your basis?"

"Report to the captain, because we found this in those household wastes. With that, the guard took out what looked like a fruit core and displayed it in front of Tolan. "This is the pit of the safflower fruit, and those who love this fruit know that although the safflower fruit is very sweet and delicious, the safflower fruit has a short shelf life of only one day as long as it is picked, and the safflower fruit pit we found was obviously discarded after eating it recently, so the question is, where did their safflower come from?"

"That's why you think Alex returned to Bela Oka without knowing it?" Tolan mused.

"More than that, Captain, you seem to have forgotten that Alex is also a believer in my lord, and that our lord's god-given power is known for its disguise and deception, and I remember a god-given power that can completely change a person's appearance to achieve perfect disguise. The guard said solemnly.

"I think it was an extremely rare ability, could it really be that it appeared in Alex, a little-known person?" Tolan muttered.

"It's not impossible, Captain, don't forget the team of Divine Favorites who searched Alex's whereabouts but unfortunately killed two important companions, think about it, Alex, a rookie Divine Favor who has just passed the awakening ceremony, can sneak attack and kill two senior Divine Dependents on the other side, which is extremely strange in itself, if according to our guess, Alex really has that ability to disguise himself. The guard said with a serious expression. "Captain, assuming that it is not me who is standing in front of you now, but Alex in disguise, is there a way for you to avoid my sudden assassination?"

Tolan came to his senses instantly, looked at his subordinates in front of him with burning eyes, and said, "Even if I don't die, I will be seriously injured! I understand! I finally understand!"

"My lord, the hound is back. ”

At this time, a guard stepped forward to report.

"Call him. Tolan said immediately.

In a moment, a thin man with tense muscles was brought to Tolan, and he arched his hand towards Tolan expressionlessly and said directly: "My lord, I have found out their whereabouts." ”

Tolan shook his spirits. "Where are they?"

"Judging from the clues I followed, they are currently in the seventh layer of the Sealed Demon Tower. Said the man known as the hound.

"The seventh layer!?impossible!" Tolan said subconsciously.

"Nothing is impossible. The hound said in a cold voice. "I've found traces of their legacy from the cave to the nearest altar, and in my repeated tracking through the altar where the target left, only the seventh layer has shown traces of their escape. ”

"How is that possible? Could it be that the guards stationed at the altar on the sixth floor just watched them teleport away?" Tolan said in disbelief.

"I asked all the members of the Templar Guard who were stationed at the altar at the time, and according to them, someone did teleport back and forth before, but the other person seemed to be the support staff of the Eagle Squad, and both teleportations were to deliver food and water to the Eagle Squad. The Hound said. But they never saw each other from the altar again. ”

"That person must have been Alex in disguise!" the guard in charge of the scene investigation suddenly exclaimed.

"All members of the Guard obey the order! Follow me to the nearest altar immediately!"

Tolan immediately understood the reason and immediately gave the order.

......

"Ann, are you alright?"

Alex hobbled towards Chen An with his wounded and bleeding arm, his face unusually pale and concerned.

"Alex, your handβ€”"

Seeing this, Chen An, who was wandering at the entrance of a cave, hurriedly stepped forward to check Alex's injuries, his expression full of worry.

Not long ago, they were unfortunate to encounter a monster that looked like a giant ape when they were groping for Alex's cave, Alex in order to cover Chen An's escape, desperate to stop the terrifying giant ape, and Chen An accidentally found the so-called cave entrance under the panicked escape, he didn't dare to go deep into the cave, on the one hand, he was afraid of the unpredictable danger in the cave, and on the other hand, he had to wait for Alex's return to be at ease.

He waited for a long time, and finally waited for Alex to appear, but Alex's condition was very bad.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that this hand was accidentally broken. ”

Although Alex lightly skimmed over his injuries, a discerning person could tell at a glance that Alex was not only suffering from a broken hand, but also that he must have suffered serious internal injuries from his pale face.

"Alex, you must not be reckless!" Chen An hurriedly searched for two branches around, and then forcefully tore out two cloth bands from the hem of his robe. "Give me your broken hand, and I'll give you a simple fixation and bandage!"

Who knew that Alex slapped Chen An's hand away without appreciation, and said, "An, no need to bandage, my hand is fine." ”

"It's okay if your hands are broken?" Chen An said angrily.

"If I say it's okay, it's okay!"

Alex roared emotionally for some reason, and after speaking, he walked straight towards the cave regardless of Chen An's face.

"Let's go, if the giant ape that I led away chases after us at this time, none of us can escape. ”

Chen An looked at Alex's back in a daze, and then silently picked up the backpack and followed.
