I was expelled from the team and was recruited by the demons?

"Unexpectedly, the second S-class crusade permit was also obtained

by Morning Star...""Is the royal capital really going to become the monopoly of the Morning Star family in the future..."

Two days later, in the Adventurer Association, the members of the major guilds couldn't help but whisper underneath when they looked at the announcement posted by the association.

The three S-class presidents sat quietly in their seats.

They couldn't figure out what was going on right now.

They had also applied for permission to crusade against this labyrinth before, but they were directly rejected by the association on the grounds of "insufficient comprehensive strength".

"If Eli is still around, I can understand that... But now Morningstar—"

Randy shook his head with a wry smile, clearly puzzled by the guild leader's decision.

"Not only Eli, but also several people with the highest combat power of Morning Star were not present at all, and Eli had already dissuaded them when they were trapped in the Demon Cave in the previous crusade."

"It's just that Morningstar at that time insisted on going his own way, and Eli could only wipe their butts, which allowed Morningstar to win the first S-class maze."

Xia Liuzhu stretched out his hand to support his forehead, and it was not only Randy who was in doubt.

"To be honest, I don't know what the guild thinks, but I know a little bit about the reasons why Morningstar is in such a hurry to take over the commission of the Flesh Hive."

Brian crossed his legs and took a document handed to him by a member of the guild.

"What do you mean?"

Xia Liuzhu frowned.

"The top of Morningstar is roughly divided into two sections, on the one hand, there are old-fashioned nobles led by President Cynthia, and on the other hand, there are a few guys represented by the secretary general."

Brian shook the document in his hand, and then continued

, "And now,

the secretary general is coming back."

"The Secretary General of Morningstar... I've heard of this guy, one of the elders of Morningstar,"

Randy said,

touching his chin.

"It's not that simple, the secretary-general, as far as I know, has a good personal relationship with Eli."

"In the Morning Star, it was she who overrode public opinion and allowed Eli to win the command of every labyrinth."

Brian smiled and threw the document to the two in front of him, then folded his hands in front of his knees and continued,

"And... The few people around her were also the ones who were favored by Eli and then pulled into the Morning Star.

"You mean..."

Hearing this, Xia Liuzhu reacted instantly, and his expression suddenly became a little surprised.

"That's right, what Morningstar did to Eli this time, nine times out of ten, it was hidden from these people."

Brian nodded, then continued

, "If they come back and see Eli gone,

do you think President Cynthia's position will be affected?"

"So, you mean that Cynthia intends to use this S-class crusade to prove to the rest of the guild that their decision to expel Eli was not wrong, so as to keep her position?"

"They've got something wrong with their brains,"

Randy was speechless when he heard this.

"It's not difficult to understand, after all, Cynthia just wants to stand firm, which is also a common problem of the new generation of nobles who have heir disputes."

Brian held his head and looked at the words on the bulletin board, the smile on his face becoming a little strange.

"Do you think Eli will meddle this time?"

Xia Liuzhu suddenly asked.

“...... It's not good, after all, it's his old club. Randy

replied with a heavy face.

"Huh?"

Hearing this, Brian suddenly turned his head and looked at him like a fool.

"Because Eli has been with Morningstar for so long, after all... I really think... It's hard to say..."Randy

replied to himself,

ignoring Brian's strange eyes.

"Let's put it this way, I don't know what kind of person Eli is in your eyes."

"But in the process of Morning Star's crusade against other labyrinths before, I also roughly learned some about the information on the guild's side, and I can roughly see some of Eli's character from it."

Brian stretched out his hands and began to briefly compare the scene to the two in front of him.

"Every action of Eli can only be described by the word 'meticulous' in my eyes."

"To be honest, it's hard for me to imagine how anyone could have calculated every step of the way to that point, and that's one of the reasons why I really wanted to win over Eli."

"Do you think that a person who is so thoughtful will help a so-called old club for the sake of the so-called old relationship, and it is also an old club who has wanted him?"

"If you don't kill them all, you'll already be benevolent."

After listening to Brian's explanation, Randy and Xia Liuzhu's expressions also became a little better.

They don't have a good impression of Morningstar, so they naturally don't want Morningstar to successfully complete this commission.

"To be honest, the thing I don't understand the most so far is why someone like Eli would stay in a place like Morning Star in the first place."

Brian put his hands under his head and said helplessly,

"Maybe... Something unexpected has happened. Brian's

ability to speculate on this step is actually enough to show his ability.

After all, they couldn't think of the identity of Eli's traverser, so naturally they couldn't understand Eli's actions at that time.

“...... Eli is coming.

Randy pressed his hands and motioned for a few people not to discuss it yet, and then silently looked in the direction of the guild gate.

The white-haired boy they were talking about was walking towards the association's bulletin board with two girls.

"That's... Flora? This is really unusual, the old man of the association leader is willing to let this child follow Eli.

Xia Liuzhu spread out the folding fan and looked at the little girl beside Eli with some surprise.

"Isn't this a good thing, the old man has almost come to see that little girl as a granddaughter, if you can pull Eli into the guild, wouldn't you buy one get one free?"

Brian stood up and walked over to Eli, smiling beside him.

Although his hideous face matched such a smile, it was indeed too inconsistent.

But you can see that he has worked hard.

"Mr. Eli?"

"President Brian."

Hearing Brian's greeting, Eli turned and nodded at the other party.

"Today is the day of Morningstar's crusade against the S-class maze, and everyone is coming to see the excitement, I didn't expect you to come over Mr. Eli."

Brian beckoned to the waiter behind him, motioning for him to bring some cups of tea.

"Ahh Thank you.

Eli didn't respond, just silently stared at some of the labyrinth's messages displayed on the bulletin board.

"Is there anything you're concerned about?"

Brian's question is actually tentative.

Although he had simply speculated about Eli's temperament, it was only his own guess.

He still wanted to confirm whether Eli meant to meddle in the matter.

Emma

, who was standing next to Eli, turned her head and glanced at Brian with a smirk, obviously knowing what the man was thinking.

"Nothing."

Eli took the hot tea in his hand and stared faintly at the maze message in front of him.

He didn't care about Morningstar, he cared about the maze called the "Flesh Worm Hive".

Who is Eli, he is the group of players who stand at the top of "Phantom Sword Dragon Pool".

His understanding of various labyrinths can be said to have far surpassed that of everyone in the current era.

So he could already see at a glance that the flesh worm nest was almost no different from the A-level maze "Obscure Worm Hive" in terms of layout and monster distribution.

But this is Eli, but he has never heard of this S-class maze called "Flesh Worm Hive".

"The people of the Morning Star are out!"

I don't know who shouted this, and everyone's eyes suddenly looked towards the back of the association.

It was a group of adventurers dressed in blue and white guild uniforms, and the six-pointed star-style epaulettes were pinned to their shoulders, and judging by their expressions, it seemed that they were bound to win the S-class maze this time.

Winnie also pinpointed Eli's position in the crowd, gave Eli a provocative thumbs up, and then slowly collapsed.

"Morning Star, the location of the maze has been logged in to your information card, and you can find the entrance to the maze by following the magic pattern above."

Maxwell then stood in front of them, wearing a black felt hat, and no one could see his pupils hidden in the shadows.

"I hope you will successfully complete the commission, and the association is waiting to wash the dust for you."

After his words fell, the Morning Star Guild's crusading party officially began to move.

They mounted their horses and raced swiftly in the direction of the Flesh Worm's Hive.

Before leaving, Cynthia looked back at Eli with a complicated look, not knowing what she was thinking.

"Do you want to follow along, young master?"

Emma leaned over and bumped Eli's arm, smiling a little narrowly.

"You've gossiped enough, we still have to find some suitable commissions, Flora hasn't been into the labyrinth for a long time, we need to take her back to some of the feelings she once had."

Eli reached out and scratched the tip of Emma's nose and smiled, then said goodbye to Brian and walked towards the guild leader with the two people beside him.

And Emma, on the other hand, took a deep look in the direction of the Morning Star's departure.

The red-eyed gaze was cold and eerie, as if it had pierced through hell.

Brian, who noticed the change in her demeanor, couldn't help but subconsciously take two steps back at this time, and cold sweat flowed behind her back.
