"I think you've got the cause and effect reversed," Parker said over his shoulder.

Xiang Xiang replied calmly: "I just saw that no one was paying attention to you, so I wanted to comfort you."

This made Fang Yu look at these two people and really didn't know who was stupider.

However, he put his hand on his chest. Ever since he entered the valley, he could vaguely feel the Ring of Golden Flame being a little warm again. It seemed that the old gentleman had not lied to him. The Ring of Golden Flame was indeed sensitive to this place.

It's just that he thought of the abandoned castle before. Where was Elmao Keep? There was no mention of that place having any connection with Nicol Bolas in history, but he was there underground in that castle.

While in the tomb, the ring of golden flames clearly had a connection with the bones.

There is also the broken Holy Sword of Moa and the mysterious Rogelsl family, which are also shrouded in mystery.

He touched the ring in his arms through his clothes. The ring was slightly warm. The same was true for the ring when he killed the necromancer. At that time, he also heard a strange sound, which seemed to make him come closer.

past.

Fang Yu knew clearly that the sound should come from that strange power, which clearly coveted the heart that the undead wizard was holding in his hand and the majestic dark power above.

But he did not act as he said at the time, because the power of the ring itself came from such power. Whether it was the original power of Nicol Bolas or the power of the lizardman dark god, it can be said that they are all from the same source.

source.

Because he was afraid that absorbing too much of this power would cause some undesirable changes to the power in the ring, and even he himself would not be able to control it.

However, that force seemed to be very dissatisfied with him because of this, and it has been ignoring him ever since, until now.

Fang Plover raised his head and looked at the surrounding mountain walls.

While he was lost in thought, the lumberjacks below seemed to have made a discovery.

Ms. Kusu climbed to the deck from the ladder, brought them a piece of blood-stained cloth, and said: "This is what my workers found in the valley."

Sophie recognized the origin of the piece of cloth at a glance. The color and shape were the same as those of the Dulun City Guards they had encountered before: "It is the battle robe of the Dulun City Guards."

Fang Plover took the piece of cloth and asked, "Where did you find this thing?"

"There seem to be traces of fighting in the valley below, but I'm not very clear about it..." Ms. Kuisu said that she was not good at analyzing these things. She just ran a logging team and was not an adventure group.

Head of the group.

Fang Yu understood this and asked Miss Aitila to stop Mr. Huiyan before leading everyone to the valley.

While he released the clockwork goblin, he checked the place where the cloth was found. The cloth was taken from a sharp rock. The place happened to be in a leeward place. There was a lot of blood on the rock and other places around it.

.

There were indeed traces of fighting all around. At least Fang Plover recognized the unique traces left by several skills, such as the ranger's penetrating shot and the crossbow shooter's explosive crossbow bolt.

The Papalar crossbowman followed his instructions and searched forward, and also found the broken arrow among the rocks.

In addition, there is a deep staggered scratch on the rock wall, which should be from the swordsman's large cross cut. In addition, there are burn marks left by spells, and there are also many ice spells that cannot be seen in the ice and snow.

Imprints after use.

But this already shows that both warring parties have at least crossbow archers, rangers, swordsmen and more than one spell caster. Generally speaking, if it is the army or other indigenous forces, it is rare to have such a variety of complicated professions.

This shows that the other party in the war is likely to be an adventurer, and even a selector.

Fang Plover threw the broken arrow aside. The blood stains had dried up to the point where they were almost black, and had condensed into a thin shell on the rocks. The battle obviously did not happen not long ago.

However, the commander of Yujing Fort said that this team has been missing for nearly two weeks, which does not seem to be the case. At least judging from the traces here, the battle will not take place for more than a week, and it is obviously not possible to trek all the way from Yujing Fort to this place.

It doesn't take long, just half a day.

He and Sophie looked at each other.

The other party intentionally misled them, which was expected by the two of them. The fact that this mission was real did not mean that the information provided by the other party was also true. After all, these details were not within the scope of the goddess's protection.

What's the point of the other party's panic? What's the purpose of misleading them?

Sophie followed the traces and walked forward while checking something in the valley. Fang Plover also raised his head and looked in that direction. The fight extended all the way forward, not just in this place, but in the shelter of this valley.

The traces are relatively well preserved.

Elsewhere, the previous snowstorm had long since wiped away all traces.

Sophie watched for a while, then came back and said: "They went deep into the valley." Fang Yu nodded when he heard this. He could naturally see this. He could even see further, through his clockwork fairy.

He suddenly remembered something and adjusted the magic buoy on the reinforced gloves to let the clockwork separate in the snowy wind.

It was at this time that Sylvide also brought back the search results from the other side. Miss Ship Officer tightened her shawl collar and handed him a page of scrawled paper. Fang Plover was surrounded by the whistling wind.

He took the piece of paper and flattened it with his hand to take a look. The place where the battle took place and the general topography of the valley were drawn on the paper.

"Although rangers may be better at this job, Miss Alisa is obviously still qualified," Sylvide looked at Fang Plover, with a hint of a school test in her light blue eyes: "Through some of the things left at the scene.

The traces can roughly deduce the offensive and defensive sides. Why, Captain, why don’t you guess who the attacking side is?"

Fang Yu didn't even think about it: "I guess the attackers are probably from the city guard."

Sylvester looked curious: "How did the captain guess it?"

But Fang Yu fiddled with his goggles and shook his head: "I didn't guess that." He seemed to be looking in a certain direction in the snow and wind, and replied: "I just saw..."

"Have you seen them?" Sophie responded.

But Fang Yu looked at the two ladies, raised a finger to his mouth, and made a silent gesture. What he saw was not just these things, the other clockwork fairy also reported something strange.

image.

"I saw a little tail."

Fang Plover said softly.

"They are behind us and have entered the valley."
