Chapter 667: One Step Slow

"Hey, did you evacuate after you found out that it was exposed......?"

Based on the results deduced from the hinting runes on the map, Xiwei found all the remaining 13 strongholds and went to look for clues one by one.

It's a pity that nothing was found.

Probably from the moment the game failed, the force that wanted to plot against him understood that the general trend had gone, so these strongholds were already empty.

In fact, it was quite good for people to go to the empty building, and he even encountered some traps in several strongholds.

For example, if you look up now, you can see a plume of smoke coming out of the north...... That's the effect of one of the traps. The enemy had piled up bomb-like alchemy products in the basement of the building, and if it weren't for the mage's alert being sensitive enough, Sivi would have been blown up in mid-air along with the house.

This also led to King Julianne thinking that there had been a terrorist attack, and now the city guards are running around the city like hornets that have blown up their nests, looking for the culprits who caused these accidents.

As a new face, Sivi had to move around the city in order to find other strongholds, so he was naturally interrogated.

However, after being interrogated a few times, Xiwei noticed that the city guards who interrogated him were getting fewer and fewer, and at the end of the day, even those city guards were no longer close to his area.

After another moment, when Sivi emerged from the ruins of one of the strongholds, a young girl was already standing in front of him.

"When I got the report, I thought they had to say you." Evangeline looked at Sivi, who looked a little disgraced because of the trap, and said happily.

I don't know if she's happy that her guess is correct. It's just that I'm glad that Sivi is here.

"My dean."

The process in the middle is skipped for the time being, and in the end, Xiwei still quit the hotel room and lived in the palace at the kind invitation of Evanterin.

In the bedroom of the former eldest princess, Evangeline sat on the luxurious big bed, cross-legged, listened to Xiwei sitting by the window finish talking about the recent events, and then nodded with a rather emotional expression.

"There is actually a powerful force to build 14 strongholds under the nose of the royal family of Julian, and none of them have been leaked, this secrecy work alone is enough to make the empire's intelligence agencies embarrassed."

"Able to send witches. And the power that makes him willing to die will certainly not be simple. ”

Sivi touched his chin. The girl who was calm and had a relieved smile on her face left a deep impression on him.

"By the way, can the dean, describe to me what the witch you said looked like?"

Evangeline said earnestly as she was curious: "Most of the witch information will be included in the Pure White Church, after receiving the news from your surroundings. They can naturally be analyzed by contrast. Try to find out what you want to know about the other person. By the way, let's see if we can start with her and catch the other party's fox tail. ”

And when Sivi painted the girl's appearance, Evangeline frowned slightly.

"What's wrong? Do you know something? Sivi immediately noticed this anomaly. Hurriedly asked.

"Well, Lord Dean, do you remember when I was under house arrest by traitors in the palace?"

After thinking about it for a while, Evangeline still didn't hide it, and whispered to Xiwei.

"Well, although I didn't contact you at the time, I still know a little bit about the specific situation."

Sivi nodded and replied softly.

Evangeline was talking about what happened to Sivi just before she was about to realize the miracle.

At that time, Queen Julianne fled to Lovenia, but Andrew, the former general of the Empire, joined forces with traitors in the Empire and put Evangeline under house arrest.

At that time, the person in charge of guarding Evanterine was a witch who showed a change in expression.

It's just that later, after Evanterine found out a lot of information, she fled back to Edric directly through the return crystal......

By the time she returned, Andrew and the witch who had been watching over her were long gone.

"Wait, in that case, that witch should be from the orcs' side?"

Sivi grasped the point of his words and asked Evangeline.

Although there were fallen magicians and the like among the members who attacked Edric in the first place, the essence was still orcs, and if you connect these things, it is understandable to conclude that Anderson and them are behind the power of the orcs.

"I'd like to say that, but it's not very likely."

Evangeline shook her head, rejecting Sivi's speculation.

"The orcs' code of conduct is very rude, and even if they can really come up with the content of this kind of plan, there is a nearly 100% chance that the battle plan will be exposed."

"Agreed, orcs are really bad at keeping secrets......" Fett, who appeared at some point, agreed with Evangeline's words after startling Sivi.

"Fett, what's new?"

Sivi asked with some curiosity, "Could it be that something happened to Shalan?" ”

"No, don't worry, it's fine for now."

Fett shook his head and said happily, "If Miss Sharan doesn't change her action plan, we will soon 'meet' each other in the imperial capital." ”

"People are here just because they're boring."

Fett stuck out his tongue and whispered.

Sivi was stunned.

Originally, as one of the three sages, Fit's daily business was extremely busy, so he naturally had no time to think about other things. And now that Edric is on vacation, the three sages have also stopped for the first time, and the result is obvious, after getting used to being busy, suddenly encountering this kind of idle day makes Fett feel very bored......

"In any case, now that the king is in a semi-locked state, he is not allowed to enter or leave, and the enemies who have evacuated from those strongholds should still be there."

Evangeline muttered softly, "Although it is troublesome for ordinary city guards to find them, but for you, Lord Dean, I ...... Or with the strong assistance of the Lylian official, there should still be some way, right? ”

Instead of answering directly, Sivi stood up and walked to the balcony connected to this room, looking condescendingly at the whole city.

At such times, it is often more intuitive to feel the enormity and vastness of the city.

"Honestly, it's a bit of a hassle." He sighed, "I'll do my best." (To be continued......)
