Chapter 707 Secret Envoy

“Ouch—”

A clear wolf howl came from a distance, instantly breaking the tranquility of Noklongen.

It must be said that the combination of the night sky and the wolf howl does have an inexplicable sense of matching, as if they were born to be a pair.

Normally, when adventurers hear this kind of voice that is obviously not human, they will think that the owner of the wolf howl is the final enemy they will face next, and the current voice announces its imminent arrival.

But now Leon blinked and said:

"Do you think this voice sounds familiar?"

Hearing this, Malu and the others nodded, and said doubtfully, "This howl, which is much purer than that of Daer, can only be made by a real wolf. In other words..."

"Yes, I think so too, that is to say," Leon continued.

"Don't speculate, it's the half-wolf that appeared at the battle festival."

Japar ended the conversation directly with one sentence.

After all, his memory is much better than anyone else present. How could he not remember such a distinctive voice?

“.”

Leon looked at his teacher with a complaining look. It was not like they didn't know the answer.

But this kind of adventure, where you deduce the correct answer through little clues, is one of the strategy team's favorite activities! Japar's words ruined the atmosphere everyone had worked so hard to create!

"Teacher," Leon patted his shoulder and sighed, "When it comes to adventure activities, sometimes you have to learn to add drama to yourself to make them more fun. What do you think?"

Gapar nodded in confusion, he didn't understand.

"Forget it. I'll look for Blaze on my exploration trip later." Leon shrugged.

There have been a lot of afterimages appearing in the Thane dungeon recently, so many that it's almost impossible to handle them. Who knows if there are clues to a new place hidden behind those afterimages, just like the White Mask to Mungwen of the Blood Dynasty.

"Half-wolf" Blaze is particularly eye-catching among the afterimages. The appearance of a wolf-headed human wielding a giant sword alone is full of fantasy. The fighting power he displayed at the battle festival should not be underestimated and is even more outstanding.

Recently, a large number of adventurers who specialize in investigating various afterimage characters have pointed out that Blaze may have some connection with Lani, which adds a layer of mystery to his identity, making people want to explore more.

Of course, the adventurers’ desire to explore is more about seeing what rewards they can get.

After all, the name "Princess Kalia" tells you that Lani is very rich. If she finds her, she might be invited to enter the Kalia treasure house and make a fortune.

Leon looked in the direction where the wolf howled and noted that direction so that he could take the road there first when exploring later.

"Leon, just like we did before, healing magic can't cure afterimages." Drew's voice came from the side, accompanied by a faint green fluorescence.

He looked back and saw that the other party was squatting in front of the person who fell to the ground, casting magic with increasing healing effects step by step.

But it was useless. Adventurers had discovered one thing in the past: unless the afterimage was fighting with them, no magic enhancement would work on those people.

Leon took out the photo stone from his pocket and pointed it at the fallen afterimage, using gestures to signal Drew to talk to him.

Whenever there is communication with the afterimage, you must take out the image stone and record it immediately. This is a skill learned from Luluwo, and it has gradually become Leon's habit. In case of missing any information, you can go back and review it slowly by looking at the afterimage.

"Are you okay? Can you talk?" Drew uttered one of the most universal phrases during an adventure.

“Ahh.”

The man lying on the ground groaned, and from the tone one could tell he was quite fragile. It was feared that if the wind blew any stronger, his soul would be blown away by the wind.

He was dressed in black clothes and a black robe, and his face was covered by a black hood. This appearance made him look very suitable for moving in the dark, just like a classic profession - an assassin.

The broken broadsword and the shield with blue patterns were thrown aside. In his hand, the afterimage held the holy finger seal that imitated the shape of two fingers and placed it on his chest that was almost split in half by the huge wound.

Looking at the wound, one can almost imagine that he was hit head-on by a heavy and thick weapon like a giant sword. It is impossible for him to survive such an injury.

"The two-fingered command knife must be recovered."

"Those who betray the Golden Tree must be eradicated."

The afterimage was like a last ray of light. He used his last bit of strength to speak, and then the surging blood blocked his throat. His head tilted and he lost all consciousness.

"He's dead," Drew announced.

If a normal person faints, they cannot be hastily judged as dead, but in the dungeon, it can be done because the afterimage of the body is gradually dissipating.

As it dissipated, a white dot of light appeared in its place. Drew touched it and heard a "crash" sound. His vision suddenly went black.

"What, what's going on?! Enemy attack!?"

"No, it's the clothes of that person just now."

Malu pulled the black clothes and robe that Canying had been wearing off Drew with a speechless look on her face.

With Drew's height as a dwarf, he would indeed be completely covered by the clothes. Ignoring his big beard, he looked like a child who stole his father's clothes.

"Were you just thinking something disrespectful to dwarves?"

Facing Drew's death stare, Malu scratched her face, smiled guiltily, and turned away.

Leon picked up the black hood that had fallen on the ground.

【Emissary Hood】

The black hood, which blends into the darkness with its color, is the attire of the Church's emissaries.

Beyond the border, there exists a church that spreads the teachings of the Two Fingers. They send out secret envoys according to the guidance of the blessing.

The emissaries are the loyal servants of Two Fingers, and also the hunting knives that secretly eliminate Two Fingers' enemies.

Leon looked at the hood again and again. He was certainly not the kind of person who would strip off the clothes of the original owner and put them on himself just after seeing him die. This set of clothes did not suit his aesthetic taste.

Looking at the remaining information on the clothes, he had only one feeling.

"It seems we've found something that would make those Thaneologists pay a fortune for it."

The adventurer's intuition told him that the secret envoy who had just died here had a great relationship with Noklongen, which looked completely different from the surface architectural style of Nimgfu. This was enough to make researchers speculate with great interest.

Scholars who study the Thane dungeon are commonly known as Thaneologists.

Although that group made up a lot of unreliable wild histories, they even made Princess Selene of the Kingdom of Anor the honorary head of the Senologists for funding.

But sometimes their speculations are quite interesting and worth reading. Anyway, the past history of the Sen Dungeon will not affect the current progress. Just treat it as listening to an ancient story.

"There are still many over there." Gapar raised his hand and pointed.

They saw that on the bridge where they were, there was a secret envoy lying at intervals, and there were about seven or eight of them in total.

Judging from the fresh-looking wounds on their bodies, it was not difficult to guess that they had experienced a very brutal battle.

"Let's go and take a look at them one by one."

Everyone walked over and checked the injuries of these secret envoys one by one. It was obvious that these people had been dead for a long time, and each of them had huge cuts on their bodies.

Although we couldn't get any more information, fortunately, there were residual spots of light next to each secret envoy.

What everyone got just now was the secret emissary suit. The remaining light spots were the broadsword, shield, finger holy seal and a bunch of props, which seemed to be enough to make up a complete set of secret emissary equipment.

And in the end, he even picked up a prayer book.

Assassin's Prayer Book

[The prayer book owned by the "Round Table Hall Assassins" can be handed over to the prayer teacher to learn the prayers written in it.]

“This thing is of the greatest value.”

Drew carefully put the prayer book away. He had never seen this prayer book before in the Sen Dungeon, and he was looking forward to seeing what practical prayers would appear in it.

Although he is a magician, who says magicians can't pray?

"We just came in, and the Thane Dungeon gave us such a big welcome gift?"

Looking at these spoils that could fill an entire bag, Leon suddenly felt a little uneasy and doubtful.

How should I put it? Only those who have been immersed in the Sion dungeon for a long time can understand his feeling. Now these spoils give him the feeling of

[There will be a storm that is enough to discourage people from quitting, so I will give you some sweet treats first to prevent you from quitting.]

That's about how it feels.

“I feel more and more uneasy.”

It turns out that his current doubts are very normal because

Not long after, as he was fleeing under the violent shooting of hordes of ancestral archers, he shouted loudly:

“I knew there was a pit behind it!!!”
