A hint of coldness flashed across his eyes.

"Rhett Green, you've exploited me before, tonight I'll make you pay me back a hundredfold!" Gaspar secretly hated him, thinking of the time when he was oppressed by the other party a while ago, and he was furious. He even began to think about how to torture the other party after catching him tonight. However... listening to the conversation between Rhett and Snowway, he was always a little uneasy, afraid that the two would suspect him while chatting.

"Huh~" he took a breath and reminded himself: "How could I be discovered? He is not an omniscient god!"

Soon, the two talked for a while, and then stopped procrastinating and attacked together towards the northeast.

The team passed through layers of checkpoints and came to the plain along a two-kilometer gentle slope from the defense line.

As the night fell, they gradually came to the bank of the bloody river and ran forward in four columns along the bank.

They crossed the barren brown fields and waded through the shallow streams across the reeds...

Finally, when the night was at its darkest, the group arrived at a dark forest.

It took the team of more than a hundred people four hours just to travel.

at this time.

The dark forest under the night is the darkest black.

The withered branches swayed in the slightly chilly air, making a soft and sad hissing sound.

Rhett looked around with a calm expression, thinking that Gaspar really knew how to choose a good place.

The woods were completely silent, with no other living creatures except the pitch-black crows.

Leiter and Snowway were at the front of the team, talking to each other. Snowway said, "I am very familiar with the terrain ahead. After passing through this black forest, there is a mountain range that is like a black line and is about a kilometer wide.

After crossing the mountains, there is a plain, but a war involving tens of thousands of people a year ago has turned it into a desolate land, so it may be different from what you remember at the time."

"No problem, you will lead the way later." Lei Te nodded.

"I suggest we take a rest here. There are several wounded people in my team. They need to slow down after running for so long." Snowway looked behind him and said to Rhett.

"Okay."

Then, under the orders of the two men, the team of about 150 people behind them began a short rest.

Some people took this opportunity to eat some dry food, some drank water from their water bags, and some found a bush and started to urinate with their backs to the crowd.

Rhett was walking aimlessly in the open space. He seemed leisurely, but in fact he was fully focused and paying attention to Gaspar's every move.

A few minutes later.

He noticed Gaspar and made a motion to untie his belt, as if he was about to urinate.

But Gaspar suddenly walked towards a black bush and passed through it directly, without attracting anyone's attention.

No one noticed this until it disappeared into the bushes.

"I'm going to the bathroom, wait a moment." Rhett frowned, said to Snowwell, turned and followed in the direction where Gaspar had just disappeared.

He concealed his aura and quietly followed Gaspar at a distance of fifty meters, crawling on the ground, and observed that the other party ran forward while being cautious, bending his waist and turning his head to look back from time to time.

Rhett had a sneer on his face and glanced around, curious about when Ambiru would appear.

Only a few seconds passed.

Rhett felt something strange in the air.

As soon as this feeling arose in his heart, he heard a series of "bang!" "bang!" "bang!" "bang!" sounds from above.

At the same time as the sound of hitting was heard, there were also wailing sounds of "Meow" and "Meow" sounding above his head.

So Rhett's heart moved, he looked up and saw two flashes of cold light and a vigorous arc of fighting spirit flashing by.

Immediately, two cat paws with drops of blood fell from about five meters on both sides of Rhett.

Immediately afterwards, two more night owls fell to the ground with great inertia. After landing, they screamed and made strange noises. They rolled left and right on the ground, twitching and kicking their legs from time to time.

Rhett vaguely saw that there was a sword stab mark on the cross-section of the wrists and chests of the two Night Owls, and there was fire-type fighting spirit burning in the dark night - the fighting spirit of the Earth Knight could leave the body and cause damage.

As expected of Ambiru, who has reached the sixth level of knight, the peak of earth knight, his strength is powerful and terrifying! From the reactions of the two night cats, it can be seen that the fire fighting spirit has been burning their bodies, and the charred skin is constantly spreading, causing the screams to continue.

at this time.

Ambiru finally landed safely from the tree. Looking at the Night Owl on the ground, a cold look flashed in his eyes.

Then he looked at Lei Te again, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Leite, you did a great job!

Gaspar is indeed a traitor. It seems that Snowway’s failure in the mission the day before yesterday is also related to this person.”

"By the way, Gaspar is still ahead..." Rhett suddenly remembered, looked at the direction Gaspar had just gone, and said.

"Don't worry, my men are already blocking him in front."

As soon as Ambiru finished speaking, Lei Te heard a scream - "Ah!"

And a slight but clear "What are you doing? I am Snowway's subordinate, and I have been ordered to carry out a mission this time..."

"ah!"

After another scream, there was no more sound.

Rustle, rustle.

Two burly men and a plump woman came from the front and dragged Gaspar, who was unconscious like a dead dog, to the ground, leaving a long trail on the mud covered with dead leaves.

The sound startled the people who were still resting in the back, and suddenly there were dense footsteps. The first one to rush over was the Earth Knight Snowway. After seeing Anbiru and the other two men and one woman, he looked surprised and said, "An, Lord Anbiru, why are you here too?"

Then he saw Gaspar and the two night owls on the ground. His pupils suddenly shrank and he suddenly had a bad guess in his heart, and his expression gradually turned cold!

Lei Te promptly issued an order: "Everyone go back to where you are and wait. Do not leave without my order!"

Seeing Deputy Commander Ambiru here at this time, although many soldiers were extremely curious and shocked, they could only strictly obey orders and retreat obediently.

"Captain Ambiru, has Gaspar colluded with the orcs?" Snowway clenched his fists.

"Yes." Ambiru said in a deep voice, walked over and patted Snowway on the shoulder: "But don't worry, I won't let your comrade's blood be shed in vain. I will take him back and interrogate him carefully, and try to get useful information."

"Sir, the interrogation is over. I want to kill him myself." Snowway's eyes turned bloodshot as he stared at Gaspar with murderous intent in his eyes as if he wanted to cut the other person into pieces.

"I promise you." Ambiru said, "But you should go back first this time. I have just done some reconnaissance. The number of orcs ahead is much greater than the intelligence. There are even a few level 5 orcs. You are not capable of defeating them!"

hiss

Lei Te took a breath of cold air. There were still fifth-level orcs ahead! Fortunately, he contacted Deputy Commander Ambiru in advance this time. Otherwise, if he continued to cross the Black Mountain Ridge, he would fall into Gaspar's trap and basically die here.

Leiter responded, "Understood, sir!"

Then he walked over to Snowway, patted his shoulder, and sighed, "Let's go, we're going back. Today we caught Gaspar and the orcs who ambushed us, proving that your brothers' sacrifice was not in vain."

"Yes, Snowway, actually you should thank Rhett. It was he who provided me with the information this time." Ambiru said on the side.

Snowway was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Leiter in disbelief and asked in confusion, "How did you know such confidential information?"

Everyone was curious about the answer to this question, and all their eyes fell on Rhett's face.

Lei Te pondered for a moment, then took out the excuse he had prepared, and said, "I don't know either. When I was getting food in the cafeteria today, I felt something strange in my pocket.

When I subconsciously explored, I found this information, which was recorded on a piece of alchemical paper that looked ordinary but was actually specially made. I touched it for less than a minute before it burned up. "

Upon hearing this, Ambiru and several of his subordinates looked at each other in shock. It was obvious that Rhett's statement was quite bizarre.

But after a long silence, they did not doubt Rhett at all and had to accept it.

After all, no matter how they associate it, they can't possibly guess the existence of something as incredible as the golden finger.

Ambiru fell into deep thought, his mind instantly thinking of many possibilities in the direction of deviation, and he prepared to investigate it thoroughly after returning.

"Thank you, Rhett!" Snowway looked serious and bowed deeply to Rhett.

Lei Te quickly helped the other person up and said modestly, "You're welcome. I'm just delivering the message. I believe that if you were faced with such information, you would report it in a timely manner."

Snowway's eyes flashed with gratitude, and he punched his chest and said solemnly: "No matter what, I owe you a favor. When the war eases, you and I must have a good drink!"

"It's a small matter!"

"You guys go back first. We didn't have time to deal with the small group of orcs on the other side of the mountain in order to avoid alerting the enemy. Now it's time to settle accounts with them!" A cold light flashed in Ambil's eyes.

Lei Te thought for a moment and said, "By the way, Commander Anbiru, there is one more thing I think I need to tell you.

I suddenly remembered that half a month ago, I learned that Gaspar seemed to intentionally prevent his son from participating in the battlefield. This is also a suspicious point. I suggest that you interrogate him carefully. "

"Hmm?" Anbiru rolled his eyes and said in a deep voice, "I understand. You guys can go back soon."

"Norbert, Valentin, Crowley, Aleku, Jennifer, follow me and get ready to go!" Ambiru said to the air.

Suddenly, two black figures rushed out from an unknown corner. Ambiru took the lead and rushed towards the mountains that looked like black lines in the distance.

Behind him, five warriors of at least level five also turned into a puff of green smoke and followed! Lei Te watched silently for a while before saying, "Let's go, let's go back!"

The way back was safe and sound.

Back at Castle No. 1, Rhett chatted with his two sons and Mycroft for a while, and then everyone quieted down, some meditating and some sleeping.

The moon sets and the sun rises, and then the moon rises and sets again. The day is spent in quiet meditation.

Late at night the next day, Rhett had assembled his troops in the square, ready to set out and patrol a certain area.

But Ambiru, with one hand behind his back and an extremely heavy expression, appeared from the corner of the street a hundred meters away and waved at Rhett from a distance.

Rhett's heart skipped a beat, feeling something was amiss, and he hurried over.

"Captain Ambiru, do you have something to talk to me about?" Rhett asked.

"Well, the results of Gaspar's interrogation are out." Ambiru's face was slightly gloomy.

"Um... isn't this a good thing? You don't seem to be in a good mood."

Anbiru was silent for a moment, and then said, "Although, we did get some useful information from him, such as the activity locations of some orc teams, recent missions, etc.

I also learned that the reinforcements of the royal bloodline this time actually came from these two royal tribes. The bet between the high-level figures was said to be for a certain item, which is really puzzling. "Ambiro shook his head.

Leiter listened quietly, and when he saw Anbiru pause after he finished speaking, he continued, "If that's all, it's good news indeed.

But I then interrogated him about the whereabouts of his son, and it took me three hours to finally get the truth out of him: his son was kidnapped by orcs. "

Hearing the news, Rhett was suddenly shocked.

He hadn't expected this accident to happen - apparently a subtle adjustment had caused a change in the trajectory of reality.

He quickly asked, "But didn't his son come to the front line? How did the orcs kidnap him?"

"That's what worries me." Ambiru clenched his right fist, with a trace of worry in his brows, "Logically speaking, it's impossible for the orcs to break through the defense line and go around to the rear, so I suspect there may be a traitor inside the rear!

Of course, it is also possible that the strong orcs bypassed it, but the possibility is very small.

After all, sending out strong men and risking their lives just to let Gaspar act as a spy? I feel that the orcs are unlikely to do this."

"Well, is it possible that kidnapping Gaspar's son was just a coincidence? Does the orc have other purposes?" Rhett asked, touching his head.

“This possibility cannot be ruled out.

In short, there are still too few clues. The fewer clues we have, the more possible changes there are! The only thing that is certain at the moment is that Gaspar's son was kidnapped in the rear and then appeared in the orc camp on the front line!"

Anbiru held his chin with one hand and said slowly: "There are too many risks. We can't even be sure whether there are other spies among us.

So you have to be more careful in the days ahead!"
