A visitor from Myst Drannor?
Neither Samuel nor Alyssa expected that the Demon Flame King would take such an unexpected turn.
After all, this seems to have nothing to do with Sambia.
However, Samuel did not neglect, and immediately replied: "Myst Drannor and his party, except for Cambion Roddick who is still in the fortress, the others have already arrived a week ago under the leadership of Nice Enli. , and left. Your Majesty was not there at that time, so her resignation was not delivered directly to you. "
A week ago, you said goodbye and left?
Isaac showed a slightly surprised look, and then he turned his eyes to Al-Almo.
The purpose of the people of Myst Drannor is to target the demon elves, and Alisa has been accompanying those demon elves these days.
If there is any problem in this, she naturally understands it best.
Alyssa understood, and took half a step forward, saying: "When Nice Enli was here, in addition to having close contact with the Frosin family, she also had close contact with Lerlan of the Elolosi family, and the god The mysterious Lesaris also had many contacts.
However, judging from Thalia's news, although the two sides should have reached some agreements, the Frosin family, Leerlan and Lysalis have always had enough hope for the evil Myth Drannor. Be alert.
Therefore, I judge that the agreement between them is mostly based on your majesty, teacher, and is the arrangement of these demon elves' escape routes when certain situations are involved. "
This not only explains why they were able to reach a secret agreement, but also explains why Nice Enli and others left so quickly.
After all, if that team of messengers really encountered certain situations, and they were inside Hell Gate Castle, how could there be any possibility of reversing the situation?
In order to complete the secret agreement with the demon elves, and perhaps also want to take these demon elves to Myth Drannor, Niss Enri naturally wanted to "call people"!
In addition, the timing of her "calling people", or the timing when those demon elves need to respond...
Isaac thought for a moment, and a sneer appeared in his eyes again.
In addition to exploring the so-called "high energy core", it seems that these demon elves may have other intentions when they come here.
However, he was not in a hurry to continue questioning Alyssa, and turned his eyes back to Samuel again.
The Fly Demon understood and continued: "In addition to the Blue Bear Tribe and the Dragon Witch Cult, I also discovered some new threats to Amarinda."
Amarinda, one of the Seven Giants, the soul-killing demon Vikas, is personally in charge, and has a large number of tanar'ri demons following her. In addition, there are at least two tribes of tanarok legions there. This is the power that even the beholder and the giant dragon can only flee in embarrassment in front of this military might.
Samuel actually said that he had discovered that it might threaten the power over there?
"explain!"
Isaac's expression became slightly more solemn.
Amarinda is a strategic location that he had planned long ago. It is not only related to the depth of Hell Gate Castle, but also the place where Hell Gate Castle has direct communication with the outside world, especially with the forces he wants to contact.
In addition, he had previously made various plans to set foot in the Northern Dark Territory, and then to the drow dragons and the Spider Queen Church...
The geographical role of Amarinda, the ancient dwarf royal city, is even greater.
If there is anything around it, it can directly pose a threat to it...
"Otu City, the beholder city!"
Naturally, Samuel would not show off in front of Isaac. Without hesitation, he revealed all the root causes: "Through Amarinda, I bought a batch of them from the Moon Lake area, most of them should be Zhentarim. Through these people, I learned that Otto City, the beholder city hidden in the deepest part of the Gray Peak Mountains, has been making a lot of moves in recent times.
Because of the beholder's ability to manipulate the mind, I have not sent spies there yet. However, I have hired those business groups and a group of gray dwarves to further step up the collection of intelligence information there. "
The Gray Peak Mountains is the most evil place where beholders often appear. It is often regarded by many people as the most likely place where beholders gather in the world of Ashan.
And Otto City, the city of beholders...
Since it can be called a city...it can be seen that this is probably the most important foundation for the beholders in the Gray Peak Mountains.
Although beholders are known for killing each other, since they can form cities...
There must be something, a strong enough leadership that can overwhelm all other beholders!
And it can directly overwhelm other beholders...
What Samuel said is absolutely correct. If the information from the Zhentarim is true, this beholder city does have the potential to threaten Amarinda!
Even if there are enough beholders in this city...
I'm afraid it might pose a threat to Hell Gate Castle, but it's not impossible!
Of course, no matter how numerous a race like the beholder is, it is impossible to really explode.
Isaac estimated that the number of these big eyeballs that can be named after the "city" may be quite a lot, but presumably, more of them should be composed of the servants enslaved by them, right?
However, even if this is how he envisioned it, the existence of this beholder city will still be the biggest source of instability around Amarinda.
After all, not to mention Amarinda's conquest, it was the Whipping Legion that drove away those beholders.
Isaac also deeply understood the arrogance of these big eyes.
Although they are arrogant, most of the time, they will fall into "arrogant thoughts" because of their "home".
But on the premise that Amarinda is not too far away from the Gray Peak Mountains, this distance is not an absolute safe distance for these big-eyed people!
"Beholder!"
"Otto City!"
Thinking about this sudden potential trouble in his mind, Isaac frowned, but quickly put these considerations aside for the time being.
Although the big eyes are not bad, the scale of Otto City is not yet clear, but Hell Gate Castle, whether it is still a large-scale Tanar'ri army, or Tanar'ok has already formed a legion, this is absolutely It should not be inferior to this beholder city, but its overall strength should be better than it.
Moreover...his mage group has also arrived!
Without the mage group by his side, he could already raise his hand and, as the "King of Demonic Flames", overwhelm everyone in Hell Gate Castle.
And with this "portable mage group"...
“Well done!”
Isaac nodded slightly at first, expressed his approval for the Fly Demon's sensitivity, and then said in a deep voice: "Remind Vikas not to be careless over there. In addition, continue to hire the Zhentarim and those gray dwarves, and touch them as soon as possible. Find out the details of these beholders and what they are referring to!"
The Zhentarim have extensive experience dealing with dark forces.
In particular, some of Isaac's masters, the current leaders of the Zhentarim, are the chosen ones of the Dark Lord.
The Lord of Darkness sect itself is closely related to the beholder group.
One of the abilities of the Chosen Lord of Darkness is the spell-like ability to summon the "Dead Eye Tyrant" multiple times a day.
If we can really explore the situation of Otto City through these Moon Lake merchants, let alone gold coins, it would be possible to open Amarinda and even Hell Gate Castle to them.
After all...this opening was originally part of Isaac's plan!
If we can through this opening, contact, or even penetrate into the Zhentarim's dark network, and then gradually come into contact with the Dark Lord's sect...
At this time, Isaac didn't care whether he would be predicted and foreseen by the chosen leader of the Zhentarim.
His "protection card" is already powerful enough for counter-prophecy and counter-detection.
And as long as the person who predicted and failed to predict his situation... Hell Gate Castle will naturally still be Hell Gate Castle!
"yes!"
Finally being praised, Samuel breathed a sigh of relief, followed the order, and took another step back.
It only took more than half a month. What he caught was something that he reported to the King of Demonic Flames and asked for instructions. That was all.
Next, it was naturally Al-Almo's turn to continue his report.
He stepped back, and Alyssa took another step forward and bowed slightly: "Teacher, Valermo and the others may not have a simple purpose for their trip."
"oh?"
"What did you find?"
Although her words were shocking, Isaac's tone also showed a slightly questioning tone, but his expression did not change.
"I have three suspicions."
Alyssa was well prepared and said without thinking: "First, from my observations of their journey over the past few days, I found that although they made some discoveries at the ruins of Cape Esco, sometimes their exploration , and it was a bit intentional, as if to cover my ears and interfere with my observation and judgment.
If this is really just for the 'high-energy core' and ultimately for research, then there is no need to cover up.
In addition, in terms of some details, the so-called wandering mage's familiarity with Cape Esco is not at all inferior to that of Valermo.
Moreover, whether it is Valermo or the one from the Elolosi family, they occasionally show a bit of 'respect' towards them.
Combined with the suspicion that they may have other purposes besides the 'high energy core'... I suspect that this purpose may be related to this wandering mage! "
Alisa has been leading the intelligence work for a long time. Even when she was imprisoned, she had a considerable degree of observation of Hell Gate Castle through the Al-Al Demon sisters. Her sensitivity in intelligence is still sufficient.
Accompanying the demon elves throughout the entire process of exploring the fortress and even the surrounding Esko Point ruins, she remained completely calm. She was already sensitive to a lot of strange things.
Moreover, her sensitivities not only make sense from the perspective of rationality, but are also consistent with some of Isaac's judgments.
Isaac pondered for a moment and nodded slowly: "What else?"
"Secondly, it is what Thalia reported about the possible secret agreement between the Myth Drannor envoys and them. I have a bold suspicion, doubt...whether they have been preparing in advance, so that they can foresee it. Prepare for certain things?"
Alyssa was still raising her eyes while reporting.
The voice seemed to be conveying some questions to Isaac, but in those dark emerald-like beautiful and more penetrating eyes, there was something pointing and a warning look.
Prepare in advance for certain things that the demon elves can foresee!
This means...these demon elves will definitely offend the ruler of Hell Gate Castle if they know these things!
So……
Seize the "high energy core" and leave?
Or use the "high energy core" to realize some of their intentions?
Or...Alyssa's first suspicion is that besides the "high-energy core", do they have other purposes?
Isaac thought for a moment and nodded, seemingly in agreement.
Facing Alyssa's gaze, he asked again: "What is your third suspicion?"
"Port Avon!"
Alyssa continued to report: "As for Thalia's relationship, Marina has made contact with her confidants in Port Aven. Although on the surface, everything in Port Avon is still the same as usual, however, Marina has I have noticed that some evil rituals are being carried out in the fortress of Varilmo, which is suspected to be an underground temple, and there are signs of urgent preparations for something."
Port Aven is the most important territory of the Frosin family, at least, the most important territory of the Valermore branch.
Here, they are exploring the "high energy core".
Over there, some evil rituals can actually be performed.
If we say that those rituals were already in the preparations of these demon elves and were prepared specifically for this side... it would not be out of the ordinary at all!
And these three suspicions come together...
This is why Alisa judged that the purpose of these demon elves' trip was not just to assist Isaac in reverse analysis of the "high energy core"!
Isaac nodded again.
He basically agreed with Al Mo's judgment.
On the contrary...
A thought flashed through his mind, and his eyes moved: "How is Thalia?"
Questions without beginning or end.
However, Alyssa knew what he meant, and after thinking for a moment, she nodded: “Judging from her cooperation with Marina, it should be reliable.
Her desire to seize power against the Frosin family and her dissatisfaction with being excluded from the inner circle by Valermore are the prerequisites for her to join us.
Teacher, you give her enough autonomy and support to meet all her needs at this stage.
Therefore, at least for now, her reliability should not be a problem. "
Alyssa has a considerable understanding of the demon elf who is as beautiful as her, but has greater ambition and desire than her.
"Let's arrange it so that she and Marina will be ready to capture Port Aven at any time."
"Also...continue to watch them perform and see what they are ultimately referring to!"
"I will arrange for another person to cooperate with you."
The four demon elves are not simple. Even though Alisa has the help of the leader of the demons, Victor, she may not be absolutely sure in certain circumstances.
While talking.
Isaac looked outside the hall.
As if walking out of the dark shadows, a figure in black robes appeared.
Samuel and Alyssa, who were looking back, felt their hearts jump at the same time... They were so alert that they didn't feel anything before this figure walked out!
