Jing has carefully read the requirements of this mission, the difficulty is very high, it is indeed an S-class mission, but one of the most critical problems is that Jing does not understand the necessity of this task at all. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

To put it simply, Jing felt that this task was meaningless at all, if it weren't for knowing that all S-class tasks were personally formulated by the person in charge of the war zone, Jing would probably have been unable to help complaining.

The task is very difficult, but it is not complicated to say - what Jing has to do is to lead her four members to the Thebes volcano in the Alcana Mountains to investigate the Earth Dragon Queen that inhabits it.

Mount Thebes is no ordinary volcano, it is one of several large active volcanoes in the Hengduan Mountains.

That Earth Dragon Queen was not an ordinary Earth Dragon Queen, but a very old and powerful Earth Dragon Queen who was more than two hundred years old.

In other words, the most powerful earth dragon in the Alcana war zone is this one.

“...... If I'm not mistaken, that Earth Dragon Queen already has a relatively high level of intelligence. Jing frowned and said, "Over the years, we and those guys in the north have known about the existence of the Earth Dragon Queen, but we generally don't try to provoke her. She also rarely comes out when we are at war, and most of the time she hides in the Thebes. Why should you investigate such a troublesome thing that has no impact on the situation of the war?"

Jing's doubts are not unreasonable.

The duty of all the soldiers of the Arcana is to confront the battle mages of the north. And that Earth Dragon Queen has nothing to do with the battle situation, but it is extremely difficult, so why bother yourself?

Faced with Jing's question, the person in charge was silent.

The expression on Jing's face froze, and then a trace of loss flashed in her eyes, and she muttered softly, "Well, it seems that it is not something I can know again." ”

The person in charge caught the loss in Jing's eyes, hesitated slightly, sighed and said, "Jing, do you remember the Earth Dragon Riot in winter?"

Jing's face turned pale, she naturally would not forget the incident in winter, the earth dragon in the mountains seemed to be crazy. In fact, Jing herself was injured in that incident, and it was only during this time that she needed to recuperate in the camp.

"Doesn't it mean that it was just a special event, an exception, and won't be repeated?" Jing asked.

The person in charge shook his head and said, "For some reasons that I can't explain clearly for a while, it is necessary to investigate now, maybe the anomaly of the earth dragon has something to do with the earth dragon queen." After a pause, the person in charge spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders and said, "No matter how much, I really can't say, and I can't tell." ”

Jing thought about it, nodded and smiled: "Okay, that's enough." I'll get the job done. When can I go?"

"This afternoon. ”

"Yes. ”

After Jing left, the person in charge got up and went to the window to think for a moment, then returned to his desk, contacted someone in the imperial capital, and said, "The task has been arranged." ”

A deep and steady voice came from the other side: "Okay, trouble." ”

"It should. The person in charge pursed his lips and asked, "However, it may be a little inappropriate for your granddaughter to come to the Alcana war zone." ”

The voice on the other side seemed to smile and said very easily: "It's okay, young people's affairs, let them solve it themselves." We old people are too lazy to take care of it, but we can't take care of it. ”

The person in charge heard the helplessness in the voice of the host, and thought of what Long Qiqi did at the banquet in winter, nodded thoughtfully and said, "That's right." ”

"So that's it for now?"

"Good. ”

"I'm waiting for your news. ”

"Yes. ”

In a mansion somewhere in the imperial capital that was a day away from the Arcana, General Dragon, one of the three major generals, severed his connection with the Arcana and let out a long sigh of relief.

He was the one who was on the phone with the person in charge of the war zone just now, and it seemed that he had completed something quite important and was temporarily relieved.

There was not only General Long in the room, but also his lieutenant, Imperial Major Katarina.

And...... Colonel Norton, the guy who arranged for Caesar to go to the Alcana.

General Long rubbed his temples, raised his eyes and saw Colonel Norton sitting on the sofa opposite him with a gloomy face, and couldn't help but show a wry smile again.

"I'm sorry, old friend. General Long smiled, "I just contacted the Alcana side. Now you say, what are you going to say to me, and what am I not doing well?"

Norton said in a sullen voice, "Boss, don't play stupid with me, you've used this trick badly." It just so happens that you mentioned the Arcana, and I came here for the Arcana business. Who did you send?!"

Norton and General Long's old subordinates have a very good relationship in private, and they don't dare to talk to the Imperial General like this if they change people.

General Long rubbed his hands together and said, "Do you mean the personnel transfer in the Alcana theater? Who are you not satisfied with the transfer? Long Qiqi? Or Caesar? But Caesar was personally sent to Alcana." ”

"Neither. Norton said, "Chief, you were the one who put me in charge of the personnel transfer in all the war zones in the Hengduan Mountains, right?"

"Yes. ”

"Over the years, I have done all the affairs of the Hengduan Mountains with all my heart and mind, and I have done it according to the rules, right?"

"Of course. ”

"That'...... Why did you skip me this time and send that little Philo imp, who was actually Hughes, to the Alcana?"

Norton finally spoke out about his true grievances.

General Long seemed to want to say something.

Norton said directly: "Boss, you should know that Hughes is currently only level nine, I don't care whether his actual combat power is level ten or eleven, and no matter how good his talent is, what is the significance of the next Dragon Dao opening." I only know that the army does not allow people below the tenth level to enlist. Long Qiqi's girl also recently broke through to level ten, so I just turned a blind eye. ”

After saying that, Norton glared at General Long, waiting for the other party's response.

Caterina on the side looked at this and that, helpless, knowing that Norton was this stubborn temper. But in reality, even Caterina didn't quite know why she was sending Hughes to the Alcana this time.

You must know that Caesar is already risky to go to the Alcana, but fortunately, judging from the battle reports these days, he is very suitable for the identity of an Imperial soldier, and his performance is excellent, completely exceeding the expectations of the Imperial high-ups.

Yes, although Caesar himself rarely felt it directly, the eyes of the top of the empire never took their eyes off him.

But Hughes's transfer is a bit inexplicable.

You must know that before Hughes was transferred to Alcana, he was still recuperating in the hospital, although he had recovered from his injuries, but after all, because of his injury, his cultivation had dropped a little, otherwise he would have broken through to level ten.

I saw that General Long was silent for a long time, and suddenly asked, "That Hughes kid, he was attacked in the winter and was injured a lot, you know?"

Norton was slightly stunned, then nodded: "I don't pay much attention to it, but I know about it." What's going on here?"

The dragon general did not answer, but asked again, "Do you know about the Earth Dragon Rebellion in Alcana?"

Norton rolled his eyes: "Chief, aren't you talking nonsense? I'm the head of personnel in Hengduan Mountain, of course I know about such a big thing." However, no specific cause has been investigated yet. ”

General Long looked at his old subordinates deeply and said slowly: "Coincidentally, Hughes's injury happened on the same day as the Arcana Dragon Riot. ”

"What?" Norton was taken aback.

But he thought about it for a while, and soon said nonchalantly: "One is in Phoenix City, the other is in the Hengduan Mountains, these two things are 108,000 miles apart, it's pure coincidence." ”

General Long seemed to smile and said, "What if you add one more - Hughes was picked up by a member of the Roy family in the Alcana in the first place?"

Norton was shocked and stopped talking.

"I won't say anything more. The dragon general concluded, "The attack on Hughes may have nothing to do with the Earth Dragon Rebellion in the Arcana, but in any case, it's always good to investigate." As for sending Hughes himself over, it should be regarded as a workout for him. After all, Caesar is also there, and both of them are on the list of the best candidates for the next Dragon Dao. ”
