Back at the crocodile front camp, Rogge told the crocodile patriarch Gustav about his agreement with Antonio, who admired Antonio and Tali's strength in the battle, and longed for a chance to meet them.

"Is there anyone else here besides you?" asked Gustav as he walked side by side with Rogge to the tent.

"And then there's the Executor Bach and the Guildmaster Wood of the Guilty Judges, who I asked you to find, and there are two other groups of ......" Rogge paused here and looked at Gustav with a meaningful gaze.

"I see, there are three groups of you, all chasing the artifact, and it seems that your responsibility is quite heavy. Gustav understood, smiled and looked Rog up and down, "Then I can understand why so many powerful humans are suddenly here." ”

"Patriarch, you've won the prize, tonight I'll go to the lizardmen's camp to see Captain Antonio, and if possible, I hope to help your people end the war with the lizardmen before we set out to find Bach again, because the chaos between the two clans is likely to be exploited by those with ulterior motives. ”

Gustav shook his head with a disapproving smile at Rogge's words and said, "If you mean the other two groups of people who followed you to the swamp, I think you are too worried, I don't know about the lizardmen, but my people will never be used by outsiders." ”

"What if they're William, the King of the Dark Wizards, and Princess Elizabeth, daughter of the Vampire King?" asked Rogge, pausing and looking back at Gustav's face.

Gustav was stunned for a moment, his brows suddenly tightened, and he stared at Rogge with concern and asked, "You're not kidding, are you?"

"There's no need for me to lie to you, Grand Patriarch. Rogge replied solemnly.

Gustav gasped and nodded solemnly, "I understand, but it's not a casual matter to ask our two clans to stop fighting, let's talk about it when you come back from the lizardmen." ”

Near midnight that night, Rog flew over the lizard-man camp under the escort of the little owl Lilith, and the small fur ball fluttered down from the sky and landed next to an animal skin tent on the right side of the Chinese army's tent.

She sneakily stretched out her little head and looked left and right, and saw that there was no one around, so she jumped to the door of the tent, pouted her little ass and probed her brain through the gap in the curtain of the tent, and as soon as her head came in, she smelled a pungent aroma.

"Wow, it's really delicious!" Little Furball burst into the tent with his eyes shining, fluttering his little wings and jumping onto a large piece of barbecue steak on the plate on the straw mat, opening his mouth and pecking hard.

"Lilith!" Tali, who was sitting across from Antonio, was surprised to stretch out her hands to pick up the little furball, kiss her little furry body, and asked with a smile, "Where's Rogge?"

"Bad wolf...... Little Furball glanced back at the door of the tent, shook his head at Tali with a blank face, and said, "I don't know, it was still on me when I came in just now, it seems to have been lost!"

"Remove the shrinkage and try it!" Antonio hurriedly reminded.

Lilith recited a spell, only to see a flash of red light, Rogge's figure suddenly appeared next to him, one foot happened to step on the iron plate containing the barbecue steak, only to hear a "bang", the iron plate was stepped on by him over, and the meat steak on the plate was suddenly bounced up.

"My chops!" the little furball shouted, broke free of Tali's hand and jumped up, turning into a little Lori in mid-air and grabbing the falling chop, and suddenly pounced on Antonio's body, and the steak in his hand slapped directly on the face of the knight leader.

"Oh, baby, oh my God!" Antonio, who was knocked down by Lilith, wiped a handful of oil from his face with his hand, saw that Lilith had sat up straight, opened his mouth and bit the flesh in his hand hard, and jumped up and ran away satisfied.

He sat up and looked back at Roger on the side, whose leg was drenched with oil from the plate, and looked at Antonio, whose face was covered with oil, with a look of chagrin, and couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"You can still laugh. Antonio shook the oil off his hand, took a leather handkerchief from his side to wipe the oil off his hands and face, and Tali handed another handkerchief to Rogge, and then hugged Lilith, who had eaten with oil in her mouth, and watched the embarrassed two clean up.

"What a greasy reunion. After wiping the oil off his pants and boots, Rogge put the handkerchief aside, looked up at Antonio and said.

"It's okay, but I'm afraid I'm going to sleep with this smell in the next few days. Antonio said with a helpless shrug.

"Sounds good, but I've had a worse situation - thanks to the little villains. Rog glared at Lilith fiercely, and little Lori lowered her head and was busy eating her steak without even looking at him.

"Okay, let's get down to business. Antonio handed a wooden wine glass to Rogge, then picked up his own and clinked glasses with him, and after the two took a sip of the wine, he said, "Tell us about the situation on the crocodile side." ”

Rogge then tells them about Murphy's relationship with Gustav, and Antonio and Tali hear about Murphy's past for the first time, and are surprised that he has such a glorious legend in the swamp.

Later, the two of them were embarrassed to learn about the unjust case that happened to Catherine and the final outcome of the case, and Antonio muttered for a moment and said, "It seems that you and Murphy have become very close to Gustav, which will be very beneficial for us to resolve the fight between the crocodile clan and the lizardmen in the future." ”

"That's what I'm trying to say, we should try to quell this war and gain the trust of the lizardmen and crocodiles, so that we can find Bach faster and return to the empire with the artifact. Rog nodded to Antonio and Tali.

"Have you found any trace of William or Elizabeth?" Tali asked Rogge, worried, "We've been separated from them for so long, and it's likely that they've gone deep into the swamp, and maybe they've also made their way to the Garden of the Dreads and made it here through the Queen's portal." ”

"Your fears are well founded, though I don't want them to come into contact with Queen Anna. Rogge sighed and said, "But now we have no time to think about anything else, and only by finding Bach as soon as possible and leaving this place with him and the Sacred Artifact can we prevent William and Elizabeth from continuing to disturb the swamp." ”

He looked up at the two of them and asked, "How is your side, what is the attitude of the lizard matriarch Larkin towards the crocodile clan?"

"In my opinion, Larkin is not very tough on the crocodiles, but his daughter Sasha is very tough on the crocodiles. Antonio took a sip of the wine in his glass and said.

"I have asked Larkin, and he told me that although the lizardmen and the crocodile have not been in harmony for generations, they have not risen to the stage of racial hatred, which is much lighter than the feud between the dwarves and elves, and that his daughter Sasha has not shown strong hatred towards the crocodile clan before, but it has started suddenly in recent months, and he also finds it strange. ”

"Have you been in contact with Sasha?" Rogge asked, looking back at Tali with an inquiring gaze.

"After talking once or twice, I feel that she treats people very coldly, is not close to everyone around her, and is proud like a princess. Tully's eyebrows frowned slightly, and there was a hint of disgust between her eyebrows.

"In my opinion, the princess is not as cold as she is. Antonio added.

Rogge nodded thoughtfully, pondered for a moment and suddenly looked up and asked, "By the way, do you know who is training the lizardman assault force?" Murphy once told me that he, Katherine, and Lisa were once attacked by the lizardman assault soldiers, and the individual combat effectiveness of those lizardman soldiers is beyond imagination. ”

"I've heard about it, I've heard that Sasha is training, and Larkin told me a little bit about his daughter who met a human in the swamp who was proficient in special warfare skills, and he was wounded, and promised that if Sasha was willing to save her, he would help her train lizardmen soldiers to defeat the crocodiles. ”

"Proficient in special operations techniques......" Rogge muttered as he repeated the phrase, and asked, "Do you know where that man is?"

"Only Sasha knows his whereabouts, and they have an agreement not to see anyone else. Antonio looked at the suspicion between Rog's eyebrows and asked, "Did you think of something?"

"There must be something strange about this person deliberately hiding his identity so that no one else knows who he is and where he is, and only contacting Sasha alone. Rogge whispered as he thought.

"Do you want to investigate this person?" Antonio and Tali looked at each other, both looking back at Rog.

Rogge didn't answer, but looked back at the animal skin curtain behind him, and said in a deep voice: "Whoever is outside, come in!"

Antonio and Tali were shocked to hear this, and looked back in the direction of the curtain, only to see a large hand slowly open the curtain, and a tall lizard man wearing a fur cloak walked in.

"Grand Patriarch Larkin!" Antonio and Tali hurriedly got up, Rog also got up from the ground and looked back at each other, the great lizard patriarch Larkin nodded to everyone, and deliberately glanced at the little Lori who was sitting next to Tali and continued to eat without raising her head, and then came to Rog.

"You're the one who fought Mr. Captain today. Larkin looked at Rogge with his piercing eyes and said, "It seems that you have known each other for a long time, and you deliberately put on a show for us today." ”

"You're right, Patriarch, we do know each other, but we have no ill will towards you. Rogge looked up at the round lizard head of Rakin and replied unhurriedly.

"Oh?" Larkin's gaze swept over Antonio and Tully's faces, and he asked suspiciously, "How did I hear that someone is going to investigate my daughter?"

"Great Patriarch, you have misunderstood, the person we are going to investigate is not Sasha, but the mysterious person behind her!" Antonio stepped forward and explained.

"Is that so?" asked Larkin as he stared into Rog's eyes.

"That's right, Grand Patriarch, if I'm not mistaken, I'm afraid that your war with the crocodile clan will also be after the mysterious man appeared, right?" Rogge asked calmly.

Larkin nodded silently, and heard Rogge continue: "Don't you want to know who this person who provoked the war between the two clans is?"

"Can you give me an answer?" Larkin asked, holding her face close to Rogge, staring at him almost face to face.

"Of course!" replied Rogge, in a firm tone.

A satisfied smile appeared on the corner of Larkin's mouth, and he bowed slightly, "Very good, this is exactly the answer I wanted!"
