Blue Sword

Bruno, the Dragon of Fantasy, is a rare scholar-type demigod who is friendly to players in the original game world.

He often issues various tasks to players, most of which are difficult to complete. However, the rewards for completing the tasks are quite high. Therefore, as a task publisher NPC, he is relatively famous among players.

When it comes to Emperor Otto, although Asker does not have any evidence, he still tends to believe that the Dragon of Utopia is not the real mastermind.

The reason is simple and easy to guess.

Assuming that Emperor Otto's mission is made public, 9,999 out of 10,000 players who plan to do the mission will immediately suspect Bruno.

In this case, if the mastermind behind the scenes happens to be Bruno, everyone will feel that this task is too simple, and then start complaining about the lack of careful planning.

Even if we don't consider it from the perspective of the game company, Bruno is unlikely to be the mastermind behind the scenes. On the one hand, once this matter is revealed, he will become a target among the NPCs in the empire camp. So to avoid suspicion, he should not Participate in this southern expedition.

On the other hand, Bruno does not have this motive. He is the demigod of the Saxon family and the ancestor of the emperor. The failure of the Southern Expedition dealt a serious blow to the prestige of the royal family. What reason does Bruno have to destroy his family's prestige?

Compared with this fantasy dragon, Asker was more suspicious of the team of prison guards who "arrived in time".

The devil's anomaly occurred only in the middle of the night and into the early morning. These guys arrived in the morning, claiming that they observed the location of the devil's anomaly through the Holy See's surveillance satellite.

However, the second round of demonic tide had just passed. If Asker remembered correctly, the Holy See seemed to have had some kind of attack during the civilization recovery period after this demonic tide. At that time, nearly 8,000 players in the city received calls from a certain mission to investigate the attack.

The attack caused the Holy See's external programming interface to be down for a week. In other words, at this point in time, the prison guard organization cannot borrow the Holy See's surveillance satellites.

Therefore, at least as to how they discovered the mutation, this team of guards must be lying.

Of course, if you think of the original game world in which the Succubus Queen sent people to investigate the matter, but was beaten down by the jailer, saying that she was the culprit who affected the emperor's mind, then the smell of conspiracy here is very serious.

The two rode forward and gradually caught up with Bruno, the dragon of fantasy, just as the two giant dragons soared past them again, causing a huge sound of wind.

"These two dragons are here to help us in our southern expedition." Bruno held the reins of his horse and looked forward. "Our Saxon family has signed an ancient agreement with the Sarakli dragon family in the Alps. We can make three requests to them, and the dragons of Sarakli will help us according to the agreement.”

"This time His Majesty made use of the second request. Regardless of the final outcome, it is a very precious opportunity to request. Therefore, I hope you can understand that the Saxon family has gambled too much for this southern expedition. Because of this, we cannot directly fall out with the prison guards, lest they become the opposite weight in the scale of war."

"I can understand." Asik nodded.

This young man was not as flattered as Bruno expected, which surprised the fantasy dragon, but he didn't care about it and just continued:

"If you were just an ordinary mercenary group, I might have to help intervene; but since you are protected by the Weisbach family, it will be no problem. There are many paths to the blood of the extraordinary, and the succubus blood is just one of them. It’s just a route.”

"Even if the prison guards deliberately target you, as long as you stay in the empire's army, they will not have the chance to attack you."

"Thank you very much, Your Excellency." Ask said holding the horse's rein.

He didn't know if Bruno was reading his thoughts now, but according to the impression from the original game world, this demigod was a very principled superior, not at all as unscrupulous as the Succubus Queen.

Therefore, although Medea was quite worried and worried about this, he still calmly talked with this fantasy dragon:

"I'm not worried about this, because this prison guard team alone is no match for our team in terms of combat."

As soon as he said this, Bruno remembered his strange swordsmanship that could "kill" the opponent's thoughts of attack. However, after all, it is most taboo to have a casual conversation, so this demigod did not ask rashly, but just smiled and said:

"The extraordinary bloodline of the jailers is called the 'Evil Crusader'. It is not a profession that is good at fighting alone, but it is quite effective in dealing with devils and teamwork. In addition, the good relationship between them and the Holy See makes They can get a lot of technical assistance from the Holy See and gain great advantages in information and equipment, so you still have to be careful and vigilant."

"So that's it." Ask nodded as if he suddenly understood. "No wonder we encountered the devil's mutation incident in the early hours of this morning. They rushed here in time in the morning. It must have been the Holy See who provided the corresponding information."

As soon as he said this, Bruno suddenly became alert. Of course, he was also aware of the emperor's plan, which meant that the Holy See should have been affected by the attack. In the short term, whether it was reloading Raphael or resuming industrial production, it would be affected by a certain degree of delay.

So where does the prison guard's information come from? From the Holy See? The Holy See is still in chaos now.

The two chatted casually for a few more words. Bruno only felt that the water behind this matter was a bit deep. Whether it was the mastermind behind the devil's mutation or this team of prison guards with unknown origins, there were big problems that could be unearthed. .

After the Dragon of Fantasy left, Medea looked sideways at Asker and asked in the spiritual channel:

"How is it, my great detective? Have you found any clues?"

"Your Majesty the Dragon of Utopia most likely does not know about this matter." Ask replied, "Of course, I am referring to the matter of Emperor Otto being influenced by others."

"It's expected." Medea snorted coldly, "You've already stepped onto the stage and under the spotlight, how can you still be the mastermind behind it?"

"Not necessarily, maybe he just wants to take advantage of our reverse thinking." Asik said that although he is most likely innocent, the suspicion cannot be completely ruled out. "In addition, I also reminded him a little bit that there is something wrong with the prison guard team. .”

"Oh." Medea nodded, "Yes, not many people know my mother's real name, but that priest can tell her, haha. Do you want to inform Malkina about this? By the way, also There is the My Desire III potion, which she agreed to pay us once she starts contacting the emperor’s camp.”

"I almost forgot if you didn't tell me." Asik slapped his head, "Let's do it today, find some time."
