"Interesting......" Lu Li pursed the corners of his mouth and muttered to himself. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

He was keenly aware that this matter was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, especially the discovery of this heart, which showed that the so-called fire beak was not actually a single toucan, but a collective name for all toucans that had been transformed.

That is, for more than a hundred years, every once in a while, a toucan has been chosen to make it a fire beak and instructed it to attack the town and passing caravans.

After all, a chocobo with a low IQ will definitely not be idle to cut open his belly, replace himself with a heart, and finally stitch it up.

Old Pochi obviously failed to realize the conspiracy that might be hidden behind it, and asked with a puzzled expression: "Adventurer, are you doubting the age of the fire beak?"

"Yes, I don't think a toucan can live for a hundred years and show no signs of aging at all. Have you never carefully observed the changes in the appearance and size of the fire beak over the years?" Lu Li reminded vaguely.

But unfortunately, as the saying goes, there is no saddest thing in the world than to show the blind to the blind.

The mayor didn't feel the need for this at all, and immediately shook his head: "I'm sorry, but we don't have the time to recognize the appearance of the fire beak, every time we see it coming, everyone is very nervous. Thankfully, now that it's dead, we don't have to worry about being attacked in the future. Thank you again, I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I'm going to take my leave. ”

With that, the old man bowed slightly, turned and walked towards the wounded.

Seeing the other party leave, Lu Li's face appeared with an expression that seemed to be smiling, and he muttered in a voice that only he could hear: "It seems that the people in the town don't know...... So who is planning all this, and for what purpose?"

At this moment, Crete happened to come up to him, laughing and teasing, "My friend, what did you say to the mayor?" ”

"Hehe, it's nothing, I happened to find something interesting, do you want to take a look?" said Lu Li, casually pointing the weird heart to the young man.

The latter took it and only glanced at it, his face changed instantly, and he asked sharply, "Where did you find it?"

"Doesn't that sound interesting about the body of the fire beak, to be exact, the heart of the fire beak?"

Lu Li has seen a lot of big scenes now, so he immediately understood that he was involved in dangerous criminals wanted by the guild, or forbidden research.

You must know that the history of the other world is much longer than that of the earth, more than 100,000 years alone is recorded in detail, so there are countless forces destroyed by the guild, and it is not surprising that as an adventurer encounters a similar situation.

Clitter rubbed his forehead and explained, "Interesting?

You know? This heart-like device is actually made of monster crystals as raw materials by summoning and channeling the power of the Demon King.

Although the replacement of a man or beast can gain great powers, the price is to fall into evil and become a demon king's minions like the monsters of the dungeon.

More than 40,000 years ago, an ancient historian named Rust inadvertently invented it, and based on it, he founded the Noosi Order, transforming a large number of ordinary people and beasts into similar monsters, and finally waged war against the guild.

His wish is simple, that is, to destroy the dungeon created by the gods and resurrect the demon king.

Although the Guild was victorious in this fifty-year tug-of-war, the Noussi Order was not completely destroyed.

Many of the backbone have managed to escape the search with their technology, and they have secretly developed in remote areas out of the reach of the guild, and they will start a war again every thousand years or so.

If the Firebeaks were created by the Nussi Order, it means that their tentacles have extended to the surrounding area, and we must report back to the guild immediately. ”

Hearing that he was going to turn around and return, Lu Li immediately frowned: "But we are about to rush to the northern border fortress, and the time is already very tight, and it is likely that it will be too late to waste another day." ”

"Damn, or else! Keep heading north, and I'll go back to Kempera alone. This is a very serious matter, and I must let the teacher know. Crete proposes the best of both worlds.

He also understood Lu Li's mission, so he didn't force the convoy to turn around, otherwise once a powerful giant beast or dragon appeared on the northern border, then the entire defense line might be defeated.

At that time, half of the Lund Kingdom will be completely exposed to the attack of the beast herd, and hundreds of thousands of people will die.

"Okay!"

Lu Li hesitated for a moment and immediately agreed.

Anyway, Crete's task is to reconcile conflicts, and he is confident that he can do the job well, so there is no need to worry too much.

"The north is up to you!, be careful, and consult with Duke Kulenta, who guards the fortress, for though he is a bit ruthless, but very experienced in dealing with herds. ”

With that, Crete gently patted Lu Li's shoulder, took his belongings and a small amount of food and water, and set off in the direction of Kempera overnight.

However, he didn't notice that at the moment when he stepped out of the gate of the town, several pairs of eyes glowing with white cold light suddenly appeared in the forest in the distance.

The owner of one of the eyes lowered his voice and asked, "What should I do?" That adventurer seems to have discovered the secret of the fire beak, do you want to get rid of him immediately?"

"Idiot, don't you see it? That's the only disciple of the Scarlet Dragon, Renard Bor, how can a few of us be his opponents?" retorted the owner of the other pair of eyes.

"Then what do you say? If the plan is exposed, the master will make us worse than dead! You know the rules of the Order, and the waste is not qualified to live. ”

"No way! So far, we can only use some despicable means! Remember the girl who volunteered to be reformed? Maybe we can use her to create a trap!"

"Agreed! Adventurers are nosy guys! We should make the most of his sympathy!"

"Very well! That's it, I'm going to summon that girl right now!"

"I'm going to make poison!"

"I'm going to drive the herd and slow him down!"

......

In just a few minutes, the members of the Nussi Order had finalized a trap plan, and for them, if they could not stop Crete halfway, then a punishment worse than death awaited them.

Rather than sit on the spot and wait to die, it is better to fight to the death, even if it is under the opponent's sword, it is more painful than accepting punishment......
