"They had nothing to do with the explosion." Vereesa insisted, "They had no reason to do this!"

"That's a mage!" Duncan answered straightforwardly, as if this could explain everything. "Guys like them don't care about the safety of others, and there is also the guy next to him. The soldiers I monitored them were all beaten.

fainted!"

Vereesa is well aware of the Holy Light's bias against magic, so she does not intend to dwell on this issue. Elves grew up in a magical environment, and Vereesa herself can cast a few small spells, so naturally she will not be like a Paladin.

Treat Ronin as the embodiment of evil. And Maris, although this guy's attitude towards her is a bit reckless, but his care for Ronin made Vereesa feel that he is not a ruthless person.

"If they didn't do it," Centulus continued, "then where are their people? Now even a single figure is missing. It's definitely them, believe me."

Then you are going to hunt them down like prey, Vereesa couldn't help but think so. Centulus asked his strongest men to search for the missing mage and his companions. The female elf thought this was a rescue operation, but

Soon the Paladin's true purpose was revealed. He focused his suspicion on Nathanos and Ronin from the beginning, especially when the search revealed no trace of the two of them.

Vereesa first thought of the goblins, because they were good at climbing up the fortress and planting deadly explosives without anyone noticing. But the high-level paladin insisted that his territory had long been cleared of the remnants of the tribe, especially

They were goblins. So Nathanos and Ronin inevitably became the number one murder suspects.

They have searched the surrounding areas and are heading in the direction of Husk. Although more than one young knight suggested that Ronin would use magic to reach his destination silently, Duncan Centurus insisted that they

The villainous mage will definitely be caught and punished with justice.

As the sun set in the west and the sky gradually darkened, even Vereesa couldn't help but doubt those two humans. Could it be that they really did it and fled the scene of the crime in a hurry?

"We should set up camp as soon as possible," Centurus announced after a while. He surveyed the increasingly dense jungle. "Of course I don't expect any trouble, but there is no good in marching in the dark sky, and there may be trouble.

get lost."

The eyesight of the elves was much better than that of others, so Vereesa wondered if she should continue searching for a while. But then she thought, if the knights discovered the target when she was not there, then only death would be waiting for them.

After walking for a while, nothing was found. At this time, the sun had sunk below the horizon, and only a little afterglow could still illuminate the road ahead. Despite his reluctance, Centulus stopped the search and ordered his men to start.

The tent was set up. Vereesa also dismounted, but her eyes were still scanning the surroundings, holding on to a glimmer of hope that the two humans could detect everything here.

"There's nothing over there."

The Elf Ranger looked up at the Paladin Lord. Centulus was the only person taller than her here.

"I just couldn't help but want to see it."

"Don't worry, we will find them soon."

"We should listen to their explanation first. It's only fair."

Centulus shrugged as if it didn't matter to him. "Of course, they will have a chance to defend themselves."…

Nathanos stopped and looked around. "Something's wrong here."

Luo Ning also felt that the surroundings were too quiet. They were still some distance away from the port city of Husk, but there was no sound. A port of the size of Husk should be full of noise, and the noise was enough to reach their ears.

However, except for the occasional bird that landed, Luo Ning did not detect the sound of any living creature.

The mage warned Nathanos: "If the situation is critical, we'd better hide immediately."

"There is no need to worry." Although he said this, Nathanos's voice was low and cautious. "We are very close to Husk. Move forward carefully."

What made them relax was that when the two of them slowly approached, they did hear some sounds coming from the direction of the port, including the sound of forging iron, which was getting clearer. They could also hear trucks coming and going.

But Nathanos always felt that there was some unrest.

Just when they saw the gate of the port town, Luo Ning noticed three black figures rising into the sky.

Nathanos quickly reached out and drew his sword. After seeing who the opponent was, he put away the weapon.

After a while, three strong griffons landed in front of them.

"Two humans? Who are you?" asked a gryphon rider. He was a standard Wildhammer dwarf with bronze skin and a big brown beard.

Nathanos stepped forward and said: "Hello, dwarf friends! My name is Maris, and I am escorting this man to the port. But I am curious why you appear here? Did something happen to Husk?"

The dwarf laughed wildly. His shoulders were wider than Nathanos, and his muscles were tense at all times.

"We are indeed in trouble, and it's a big trouble. Two dragons flew here a few hours ago and burned everything they saw. If we hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid there would never be a place like Husk on the map again.

It's over." The dwarf punched himself on the chest, as if he was still recalling the battle he mentioned.

Nathanos knew how to talk to the dwarves. He said in the purest dwarf language: "On my way here again, I saw a dragon, and three griffin knights fought with it..."

When the leading dwarf heard him mention the battle, his eyes immediately shone brightly and he had a bright smile on his face. "Yes, that's us, humans! We have been chasing them and solved them in the air.

"The only drawback is that I lost a good ax there, but I still have my war hammer." He raised the weapon in his hand. The other two dwarves also cheered.

"The gryphons of the Wildhammer dwarves never disappoint. I don't know your name yet." Nathanos said with a smile, and he saw a familiar figure in this dwarf.

"Falstad Wildhammer."

"Falstad? I've heard of you." Nathanos' black eyes lit up. "Your brother Kurdran..." The words paused, and Nathanos almost forgot that Ronin was following him.

Posthumously. Until now, Nathanos still has not revealed his identity to anyone, except Centulus.

"Kurdran." Falstad frowned and put his hand on his heart, "He is our hero. May his heroic spirit fight proudly in eternity."

"I'm sorry, but I still want to congratulate you on your brilliant victory. The red dragon is definitely a difficult opponent."

"That didn't take us much time. By the way, after talking so much, you haven't said the purpose of coming here yet." Falstad put away the weapon in his hand, but when he saw the human behind Nathanos,

He realized it was a mage.

"I am escorting him out to sea, my friend." Nathanos repeated. "He is heading to Khaz Modan to perform a mission for the Alliance."

Falstad was obviously indifferent to this after hearing this. "We have no reason to stop you, but the port has been severely damaged, and the ship you need has turned into driftwood on the sea."

Nathanos had already thought of this. He looked at Luo Ning, and the other person's heart had already sunk.

"Now that you've said that, there must be no intact ships left." Nathanos told the truth.

"We have to look for it." Luo Ning, who had not spoken until now, stepped forward and said.

Falstad looked at him as if he were a fool. "Then we won't disturb you. I wish you good luck." Falstad was about to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

"Um?"

"Please help him."
