Orc Tyrant

As they walked across the upper platform of the fortress, Dalia looked out at the entire fortress.

From a height, it is more like a combination of a series of retaining wall structures and military buildings. In this boring small city, the only exception is the central palace.

The buildings clearly retain the human style of the past, and all show a luxurious style that pursues magnificence.

There are hand-polished columns, wooden floors, vaulted ceilings and courtyard gardens full of flowers and plants.

This palace is hidden deep in layers of protective walls and fortresses, and it is difficult to find it without standing at a certain angle.

And their goal is obviously there.

After passing through the levels and walking for about 20 minutes, they arrived in the palace, but instead of entering the palace, they chose to come to the elegant garden.

"Dalia, we need to talk."

After the attendants were summoned to arrange the tea sets and delicate refreshments, Quelsana moved her body on the chair, and Glak sat on a larger stone chair on the other side. The tea table was too small for him. Up.

He did not speak, but silently observed their conversation

"Okay, I think we all need to talk."

Dalia picked up the porcelain cup and took a sip. The bitter and sweet liquid immediately relaxed her body after a day of exhaustion. She didn't even dare to think of this high-quality drink in the past.

Compared to the cabin that made her stomach hurt, Daria was more adapted to this civilized environment.

"An adult talked to me. She told me that you are a very astute person. It seems to be found in some official documents. She thinks you can be trusted, and the influence of the confusion in your mind is not profound."

Dalia put down the cup, frowning, every word the other party said made her nervous and confused.

"The adult you are talking about...? I don’t seem to have any big people in my mind that have anything to do with me, but I did find something, and there is no need to hide this. I found the symbol of the Goddess of the Veil in some official documents, despite it. It's hidden, but I still found it. You should also know what that means... It is said that thousands of years ago, it was because the Veil Lady would arrest human males for rituals that caused the two races to become incompatible."

"Of course I know, but they should have been eradicated for many years, haven't they."

Quelsana stroked her forehead gracefully. She took off her hat as attractive as a rose dripping at midnight.

"However, maybe this is just a secret sign, which is borrowed by some people, and it is not impossible."

"It's not the same. This is a secret code used only by the high priests of the Veil Goddess Society. After discovering those symbols, I read through the classics for a few months and finally confirmed that those symbols represent the'ritual', the arrival of the'surveillance' and... …"

"And what?"

Dalia paused, as if saying those words was a bad omen.

"Sarishi..."

Quelsana's smile disappeared when she heard the words, she put down the cup and sighed slightly.

"The name of the goddess of the curtain... they never disappeared as expected."

"They probably always existed."

"Why didn't you report it right away? Instead, you waited several months before telling your superiors."

Dalia thought for a while, did not ask why the other party knew that he did not report immediately, but simply replied:

"I was just a small clerk, and I was very scared at the time. I didn't think so much."

"So you asked someone to give the letter written in the special potion to your cousin?"

Quelsana looked at her with a smile, but Dalia felt the hair on the back of her neck stand up. She believed that no third person would know about this.

"That is……"

"Don't be nervous, since I told you about this, it proves that you did it right."

Quelsana picked up the pot and poured another cup of tea for the other party.

"You have always wanted to ask, what am I talking about, right?"

Dalia nodded.

"How do you say...how do you think I got here?"

"I heard that all of you volunteers went there voluntarily out of loyalty to the kingdom and a sense of mission..."

"This is a lie. To be honest, I am not interested in Oak at all. I hate violence and I don't like war. I prefer to stay in the library."

With that, Quelsana glanced at Grak, but the other party just took a swig of alcohol on her own, and there were already three or four buckets of jug lying beside her.

"Then you are..."

"Even I myself didn't know why I chose to come here until one day... With the help of a priest of Oak, I found a mystery hidden deep in my soul."

"witchcraft?"

Quelsana shook her head.

"I'm not sure, it's more like a suggestion, more advanced than hypnosis, it directly affects the soul, and there is basically no trace. If it weren't for the priests of Ouke who have their own ancient but powerful powers, I am still a matchmaker to this day. puppet."

"What do you mean... Someone is controlling you to Ouke?"

"Yes it is."

Dalia took a deep breath, she seemed to feel something.

"Most of the official documents and letters are also sent by messengers like you, that means..."

"But you know what, it was not me who discovered this first."

"Who is that?"

Quelsana blinked and asked with a smile:

"Do you know who the Harpy was the first to come to the Ouke group?"

Daliya thought for three seconds, and nodded immediately.

"It's her...It is said that it is Liya who is Guke's favorite Ji!"

At this time, she remembered that her cousin was serving as a clerical clerk next to Liya.

"The big man you are talking about is not..."

"Yes, she was the one who learned of your discovery from your cousin, and she also sent guards to rescue you."

Dalia nodded, everything made sense.

But she still has a problem.

"So... why did you send me here?"

"Because you are familiar with the symbols and secret words of the Goddess of the Veil, I hope you can help me find them. Lord Liya is in charge of Guk. The problem is not serious, but here..."

Quelsana turned her head and glanced at Grak, who had already drunk the last barrel of wine and then hiccuped.

"The situation is serious."

"She was right."

Glak wiped his mouth and got up from the chair. Even after drinking so much, he was not drunk, but there was a dangerous light in his eyes.

"This side has already made a mess for you birds, it's more disgusting than Skug's cesspool.

"I understand, I will try my best to help you, and it can be regarded as repaying your life-saving kindness."

"You are not just helping them, but also helping our entire race."

Quelsana stood up and stretched out her arms towards the opponent.

"Yes, being able to plant this kind of spiritual hint on the messenger is enough to prove that they have penetrated into a very deep place, and even the Phoenix Palace may not be guaranteed...Who else can we trust?"

Dalia also stood up and took Quelsana's hand, but her expression was very worried.

"At least you can trust them."

Looking at Grak who raised his arms and stretched a big lazy waist, Quelsana commented with a smile.
