"I know what you mean, but it's always going to be known to others."

Tress took a puff of his pipe, a habit he had developed in the eight years of undercover, and the patrol knight shook his head slightly: "Although Lord Marquis is not a great knight, he is also a major faction of our knights. There is nothing to hide. Although confidentiality is required between departments, at least it should be clear internally who is whom. ”

"You're right."

Ian sighed, not intending to contradict Tress.

The internal power distribution of the Patrol Knights is that the head of the regiment and the two deputy commanders are the supreme commanders, and the great knights of the third level are united under several commanders, and under the great knights, there are also their own squads, servants and apprentices.

The Marquis of Batun was a rather independent part, he was neither a commander nor a grand knight, he was directly subordinate to His Majesty the Emperor, and was in charge of the frontier military affairs.

And Ian, a first-level patrol knight apprentice, actually belongs to the category that still needs to 'continue training'...... Only after passing can you go out of the task.

"But you shouldn't need to--the people from the Marquis of Batun's side, as long as they are recommended to come, they are considered qualified, the old general's assessment is very strict, and many of the great knights who have seen him feel very terrible."

Tress doesn't talk much on weekdays, and the reason why he explains to Ian with great interest is mainly because the boy has been inducing him, with a curious attitude, the identity of a junior, a satisfied praise and a look of admiration, so that this knight who likes the respectful gaze of others talks a little more.

Probably more than a little.

In short, this knight brother is also an undercover agent who has been out of the organization for more than eight years, and he can't say much information about the really valuable and now patrolling knights.

Of course, having said that, Tress is not ignorant of everything, after all, he has also achieved the middle and high level of the organization, he has been to the imperial capital several times to transmit information, and there are special informants to obtain information on weekdays, so it can only be said that he is not particularly familiar, not that there is a delay in the news.

"Who do you say those people are? Needless to say, it's the Flying Flame Land. ”

Hearing Ian's question, the brown-haired knight said firmly: "It's the nail that the Flying Flame Land intends to plant in us, and at first it used the local gang and the Sublimator Organization as a cover, but after the recent development and growth, many members of the special operations team over there in the Flying Flame Land have settled in. ”

"They were quite cautious, but because they reached the side of the imperial capital, I was inserted to see what was going on...... When I noticed a big fish behind me, I lurked in it, passing messages back and forth. ”

It sounds like a lot, but in fact, Tress only gave a general account of his undercover career, and did not reveal any key information.

In this regard, Ian also expressed great curiosity: "Then this time, what is the purpose of the actions of this group of Flying Flame Land agents?" ”

"It's really about attacking the participants of the Lonely Mountain meeting and getting that...... Is the leyline source crystal? ”

"It should be. But I actually don't know what the leyline source crystal is, and it's not at all clear whether it's on this train or not, maybe it's just fake news, after all, we really didn't find it just now. ”

Tress nodded, and the undercover knight's expression was quite serious: "I'm in this organization, just a member of the periphery, well, a bit of status." But only the people of the Flamelands can be the core members, and the others, such as us undercover agents and the few traitors to the empire who have been caught, are all peripheral personnel of local development. ”

"I also tried to infiltrate several times to become a high-level leader, and found that I couldn't succeed, so I decided to end the undercover - otherwise, I would definitely be able to find out the headquarters of this Flying Flame Land spy organization in the Western Province!"

- Haha, then I'm afraid you're going to find out the Grand Duke of Thorin.

Ian laughed in his heart, but his expression on the outside was still abrupt: "I see—then why are they using the name of the Dragon Worship Sect?" I mean...... Are they trying to blame the Cult of the Dragons? ”

"Perhaps."

Tress took a bite of pork ribs and shook his head, "It's all done by Kyle, the guy I injected with the paralyzing toxin." We just need to execute, and the plan is never clear. ”

Such an answer could also be considered an answer, and Ian learned some key information from it.

- Xio's identity, has it really been exposed?

Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive in his heart, and he raised his hand and grasped the pendant in front of him.

- Now that the people of Flameland really know Theo's identity...... So, thinking that he was hiding well, he was going to the Western Frontier to eradicate Theo and Lübeck from the Flame Land Special Operations Brigade......

Is it really safe?

Although Ian hadn't heard of this in the possible history of the Hive Path, in addition to the possibility that 'Flying Flame Land was killed by the King of the Mountain in an instant', it was also possible that 'Flying Flame Land successfully plotted against the King of the Mountain or his child'!

"Hope the dragon is okay."

With this in mind, Ian's exchange with Tress came to an end, and Ian returned to his seat.

"What did you talk to Mr. Knight?"

As soon as the boy sat down, Birch asked curiously.

It's certainly not pure curiosity - goblins, even if they're innocent, wouldn't ask people that way.

Of course, in the inherent prejudice of ordinary people, goblins do just do this, just as the average person thinks that alchemists are all swarm explosions and poison maniacs.

In fact, this was a 'disguise' that Ian asked Miss Birch to make.

"Come, Miss Birch, and Frost Butterfly."

Ian raised his hand and made a low gesture, laughing and whispering, "I have a secret to tell you." ”

The boy said, sensing a fluctuation of wind essence flickering around him.

He smiled.

"I have a friend named Isengard. Isengard Ellen. The main reason why I came to the imperial capital, in addition to delivering a letter to the Marquis of Batun, was because I had made an appointment with him to meet in the imperial capital. ”

"We are comrades-in-arms who fought together in the Great Labyrinth of the South China Sea, and his teacher, the alchemist Master Gosai, is also an elder who is very optimistic about me."

"And he himself is the youngest son of the Marquis of Ellen...... Overall, Ethan's background is big, and I helped him a lot in the maze. ”

"I was invited by him to come to the imperial capital to develop and study."

Ian is telling the truth, but it's part of the truth.

It was only natural that these messages should be told to Miss Birch, who was traveling with her, but in the ears of the Inspector Knight, there must have been something else in his ears: "I used a communication device to contact him before I took this train, and he knew that I was in this car. ”

"And then we had this attack that looked pretty critical, but wasn't really dangerous."
