In Nitrilan's dungeon and the fortress of the Night Blade family, Dark Elf Anya entered an empty reception room.

The living room was dark, but she did not light a lamp. Instead, she sat down on the chair in the center of the wall of the living room. Next to the chair was a pair of armor decorations.

The moment she sat down, three figures suddenly appeared around her, as if they were already here.

"Mistress." The three of them knelt down to Anya.

There was no dark elf among these people, but one elf and two humans. Each of them looked mechanically indifferent.

There are several dark elf settlements, large and small, all over this continent, and Nitrilan underground in the northwest desert region of the continent is considered the largest.

The Night Blade family is the most powerful family in Nitrilan. The Night Blade family, which was in great power not long ago, successfully suppressed other families and became the de facto controller of Nitriland. Although there is no official claim, the Night Blade family now

The mistress can already be regarded as the queen of Nitrilan.

And Anya is the daughter of the Night Blade Mistress.

The Night Blade family is most famous for its "maze" that trains professional assassins. They not only put talented young people in the family into training, but also recruit mercenaries from other races, wanted criminals and defectors from the outside world, and even

Occasionally capture slaves, brainwash them and train them to become assassins.

Such a move allows the Night Blade family to have assassins and spies of different races, who can be placed in various national forces to collect intelligence or carry out assassinations.

"I still need information about that red dragon. I'll start with you." Anya first pointed to the elf on the far left.

"Yes. I went to Muqiu City and found out more details about the red dragon's participation in the battle in Muqiu City. According to the testimonies of the soldiers who participated in the battle, the red dragon seemed to have used some very special spells during the battle. Not only could it spit out

Similar to the green dragon's poisonous mist breath, you can also use holy light spells." The elf spy reported mechanically.

"Dragon can use Holy Light? Are you sure?" Anya confirmed to the other party.

"I have interviewed multiple witnesses, and their confessions in this regard are all consistent and should be credible," the elf spy replied.

Anya thought for a while, then turned her gaze to the next human: "What about you?"

"New information was obtained at Longkou Fortress. Before the empire released the news that the princess was abducted by the red dragon, the Dragon Head Knights had carried out covert operations abroad through Longkou Fortress. The knight leader Lucio was suspected of being involved, and the operation failed.

Witnesses claimed to have seen a team of knights that retreated back to the fortress for help. According to the description, the leader of the team may have been wearing Lucio's special armor. The retreating team of knights also urgently summoned priests and doctors for him." The other party said respectfully.

report.

"Is it possible that this matter has something to do with the red dragon?" Anya asked.

"There is no definite evidence to prove the connection, but judging from the time point, the possibility of the two being connected is very high." The other party reported seriously.

Anya fell into deep thought.

Assuming that the actions of the Dragon Head Knights are related to the red dragon, it means that Lucio, the knight king of the empire, was repelled during the crusade against the red dragon, and then returned to Longkou Fortress in embarrassment.

And it was precisely because of this hasty retreat that the Night Blade family arranged for people in the empire to find out about this operation.

A red dragon that was far from reaching the level of an ancient dragon defeated the legendary warrior who led the attack?

Combined with the reports of the spies sent to Mu Xia, it seems possible to deduce that the red dragon possesses some kind of special power, which can even make it better than the legendary strong man.

It is impossible to make up for this gap by practicing magic alone. The most reasonable explanation is powerful props, magic weapons, artifacts or other external objects.

The moment this idea came up, a glint flashed in Anya's eyes.

"What about you?" Anya looked at the last person.

"The Grand Duke of Xihe has issued a reward for the red dragon because his eldest son was killed by the red dragon Kujia. He has commissioned the Beishan Kingdom to manufacture a large amount of dragon-slaying equipment. He may go on an expedition within half a month." The other party answered very concisely.

"You did a good job." Anya replied with great satisfaction. She waved her hand and aimed at the three of them and threw three silver daggers. "Go and collect the reward first."

The three of them raised their hands at the same time and easily caught the dagger that flashed past in the darkness, just like picking up a table knife. The silver dagger was their token of reward.

"Thank you, mistress." The three disappeared from the room quietly without making any footsteps, as if they had never existed.

Then Anya stood up. Within the range of her breath detection, the breaths of the three subordinates disappeared, leaving only her and the decorative armor next to the seat showing their breath.

Anya suddenly saluted the armor respectfully: "The above is the report this time, Sir Messenger."

While she was sitting on her seat, she personally applied aura shielding to the armor beside her. Even the three outstanding subordinates did not realize that this decorative armor was actually made of iron made by a mage.

Golems, and they are very advanced golems, can be remotely controlled by their creator and act as eyes and ears.

"Continue to pay attention to the news about Red Dragon, and report again." The other party only gave this reply.

"Yes." Anya bowed her head respectfully.

Then the golem fell into silence, and its aura quickly faded.

Anya left the reception room with an expressionless face, but at this moment, she felt a strong sense of nausea in her heart.

"This family is hopeless..." she thought in her heart.

It should be said that the entire Nitrilan is hopeless.

As the current designated heir by the Night Blade family matriarch, she actually does not need to look up to anyone in this family except her own mother.

But she had to bow down to a demon statue, because the owner behind the demon statue represented a powerful force, a force that now enslaved the Night Blade family.

It is very ironic that the Night Blade family has been able to rise in Nitrilan in the past ten years because it has found a good backer.

The saddest thing is that this "backer" is not even the active choice of the Night Blade family. The Night Blade family became the helmsman of Nitrilan because that force chose them as a tool to control Nitrilan.

The mistress pushed the matter of contacting the envoys of the patronage to her daughter Anya, which made Anya deeply dissatisfied.

"Damn old woman, you gave me the disgusting job of nodding and groveling. You know how embarrassing it is!"

Almost every time she had contact with an envoy and was ordered around by the other party, Anya would accumulate a little more resentment in her heart.

An enslaved family, no matter how strong it develops, is just a collection of slaves.

Who the hell wants to inherit this kind of family? I must find a way to get out!

The red dragon at the junction of the northern side of the empire—the target designated by the envoy to spy on—reappeared in her mind again.

That red dragon is now well-known in the empire and Mu Xia. At the request of the envoy, she spied on a lot of side information.

The power that can defeat the legendary strongman...

To escape from the clutches of her family and her enslavers, she needs that kind of power!

There is value in serious consideration, but before that, it seems that we should test it more first.

Fortunately, according to the intelligence, there will soon be forces to help her do this.
