"This shouldn't be a coincidence...... said Kelelius with a frown, apparently vaguely aware of something.

"Did you find anything, Lord Kyleus?" asked Bellamy, confused.

"No concrete evidence has been found, but I can clearly sense that the two attacks were most likely the work of a group of people......," Kylelius said.

"But the first wave of attacks, apparently accidental, if we hadn't met the Scharke......" Bellamy suddenly realized something and stopped.

"Yes, if it weren't for Shilk, we wouldn't have been able to bump into the 'Forest Safari', and naturally we wouldn't have been able to meet the pursuers who followed. Kylelius analyzed.

"But why should we fight that group of thieves, they don't have the ability to pose a threat to us. Bellamy said suspiciously.

"I guess let them consume us, and in fact, I also consumed a lot of mana and magic slots just now, at least they have achieved this purpose. Kylelius speculated.

"So those who chased after us were Schalke's accomplices. Bellamy deduced.

"That's right, after such careful preparations, they must have been planning for a long time, so it is impossible for them not to know our specific strength. And the reason why they dare to do this can only be that they have a certain confidence in victory. Kylelius said as he looked at the forest that was drifting away.

And in the forest at this time, it was indeed as they guessed. The Schark were indeed in league with their pursuers. And several of them, all acquaintances of Kyrlius, and a dark-haired man standing in the center of them was one of them.

"Is it solved?" said Kurol, looking at Scharke, who was covered in blood.

"Of course, it took a little effort, but it was all solved. Scharke still smiled heartily, but the fresh blood stains on his face made him look very weird and chilling at this time.

Maggie, a maid with aqua blue hair, walked up to the two and asked, "Shall we not continue chasing the bishop?"

Kurol still smiled and said, "It's okay, we still have a lot of opportunities in the future." Besides, our main purpose here is not for the priest......"

"Then why do you want to kill that group of thieves in the 'Forest Safari'? A masked dwarf who looked a little taller than the others asked in a cold tone.

Apparently he was very unhappy with such a senseless action. The golden pupils in the long and narrow eyes. At this time, he was staring at Kurol with a fierce light.

Slightly pulled out a long knife from the handle of the long umbrella in his hand, and it glowed with cold light.

As if he hadn't seen it, Kurol said with the same gentle expression, "It's just a small temptation, if they consume too much and don't find us." Then I naturally don't mind killing him once. After all, this is an agreement between us. You still have to try to comply with it. ”

A gentle tone like a spring breeze. But it made the people around him feel a chill from the heart.

Just for a mere temptation, more than 100 lives were sacrificed in the blink of an eye.

"Yes......" I don't know if I was satisfied with this explanation, but in short, the short half-dwarf put away the cold light in his hand.

Kurol looked at his companions again. After a while, he said, "Since everyone has no other problems, then we are going to start the main operation of this group gathering......

"Any clues about that ruin? Kurol led his companions deeper into the forest and asked about the Shark beside him.

Shark, who was in charge of gathering information, took out a few pieces of paper from the inside of his blood-stained clothes, looked at them and said, "There is no too valuable information, except that the ruins here are a magic workshop built by a lich a long time ago. However, the exact location, the specific scale, the wealth and danger contained in the ruins, all of which are unknown. ”

"As a result, we don't know anything?Sharke, how did you gather information?" said the half-dwarf who was not far from them, sneering.

"I tried my best, but the information on the Shadow Church side is too low for us, so a lot of information won't be available to us. However, the information in other parts of Fioret seems to have been manipulated by someone, and there is almost no information in this area. Scharke said helplessly.

Kurol heard another meaning from it: "In other words, is His Majesty our king also interested in this ruin?"

Scharke nodded and said, "Yes, the organization that can carry out such a large-scale intelligence operation in the empire can only be the empire itself. ”

After thinking about it, he added: "Of course, it is not necessarily the intention of His Majesty the Emperor, after all, the male lion is rumored to be terminally ill. But even if it's just the interference of an heir to the throne, we're in a tough situation right now. After all......"

Kurol knew that Shark didn't mean anything to say next, after all, there were only ten of them now. Even if each of them is a master who can take charge of himself, but in the face of the power of an heir to the throne, they are still a little insufficient.

At the front of the line, a tall figure who heard them roared excitedly: "Is there another enemy?! It's really good, I hope the enemy is stronger this time, don't let me down!"

It was a barbarian with pale blonde hair and a beard. The huge body of more than 2.5 meters makes him look reassuring when he is at the front of the team. But the bloodthirsty sneer on his face, as well as the sharp jagged teeth, made him look crazy and dangerous.

"Vogel who won't let you down, this time the enemy, but the Empire's violent organs, there are enough strong men to fight. Kurol said with a smile.

"Phil, it's your job next. Surveying everything within five kilometers southwest of here, I don't want to see any unrelated people. Kurol said to the half-dwarf with a light smile.

"Hmph......" Phil just snorted coldly, his disdainful smile clearly looking down on the adventurers here. But even so, the excitement and killing intent in his golden eyes could not be hidden.

Leaving an afterimage in place, Phil disappeared in place, and the sound of 'Sisuo' in the grass in the distance showed that he had run far away.

Although he said no, his body was very honest, which was the best interpretation of Phil at this time. (To be continued......)
