Rex sat in the back, half-smiling as he watched the orc's expression change several times. He wanted to regain control of the driving seat, but did not stop Connie.
It is not a secret at all that there is a traitor in the Falk tribe. Even apart from their master and apprentice, he is not sure which one is from Oster.
The last time Connie went to Luodu by herself, her itinerary was exposed in advance, but her route was too weird, and she successfully avoided all the enemy's encirclement, and arrived at the City of Chaos safe and sound, leaving the opponent empty-handed.
This time when he went to the City of Chaos to participate in the Peace Conference, the Orcs were divided into two factions. Auster wanted to gain the final say of the Orcs, and intercepting them halfway was the last chance.
He made some arrangements, but because there was no one he could trust within the Faak tribe, he was still the only one accompanying Connie when they went to the City of Chaos.
As for the orc who drives the flying mount, he was chosen at random. No matter how careful the selection was, there was no way to guarantee the loyalty of the other party. It would be better to just choose someone at random and then deny him directly.
Judging from his unusual anxious look, he must have been bribed or threatened by Auster.
"Clan leader, why don't you let me drive the car, and you can just have a good rest in the back." The beast master said cautiously, with an anxious look on his face.
"You think you are better than me?" Connie glanced at him sideways.
"No, no, I'm just worried that you, Patriarch, will work too hard." The orc shook his head quickly.
"It's okay, I think it's fun. You can rest in the back." Connie pulled the rope around the big white bird's neck and flew south.
Seeing this, the orc hurriedly said: "Hey, hey, you are flying in the wrong direction. The City of Chaos should be flying forward. Have you seen the high mountain in the distance? You should be flying in that direction. .”
Connie's face flushed slightly, and she said seriously: "Who said that flying like this is the right way, I have a great sense of direction!"
"I have flown over the City of Chaos hundreds of times, always in this direction. After passing through the mountain, there are plains all the way, and I am very close to the City of Chaos." The beast master's anxious forehead was covered with cold sweat. , "You listen to me, you are right."
"I won't listen, I won't listen!" Connie shook her head repeatedly, her eyes firmly moving forward: "The direction I am looking at must be right! There is absolutely no way I can be wrong!"
"But..." The beast master still wanted to speak.
"What's on that mountain?" Rex suddenly asked.
The dull voice shocked the beast master, and his back felt cold. His body was a little stiff, and he turned back with a smile and said, "There is... there is snow."
Meeting Rex's gaze, he felt as if all his secrets had been revealed.
"I'm afraid of the cold, so I won't go!" Connie refused even more decisively now. She patted the big white bird on the back and drove the big white bird speeding towards the south like a horse. After a while, the high mountain became a Invisible little black dots.
"It's over..."
The beast master's heart was completely cold, and he sat down on the bird's back.
"Jump down yourself, or should I kick you down?" Rex looked at the beast master and asked coldly.
"I just want my family to survive, why don't you give me a chance..." The beast master looked at Rex and Connie and shouted hysterically.
"Huh???" Connie looked at the beast master with some confusion.
"I'll kill you!" The beast master raised his voice and suddenly thrust out a short knife from his wide sleeves, stabbing Connie in the back.
But just as the tip of his knife was exposed, Rex kicked him on the back.
The beast master only had time to let out a scream before he flew out. After a long time, there was a muffled sound of something falling to the ground below.
"Has he also been bribed by Auster?" Connie finally came back to her senses, looked at Rex and blinked and asked.
"What do you think?" Rex rolled his eyes, not knowing how to praise his precious apprentice.
"It looks like this." Connie nodded seriously.
"When I get back from this meeting, it seems that I will have to strengthen my teaching on how to read people." Rex sighed, feeling that there was a long way to go.
"Master, actually even if you didn't take action just now, he wouldn't be able to hit me." Connie said seriously: "I'm sure."
"I'm really not sure about this." Rex shook his head.
"Then which direction should we fly now?" Connie looked around and asked.
"Didn't you just say that you have a great sense of direction?"
"Don't I lose my sense of direction when I get nervous..." Connie blushed, looked around, and pointed in a random direction, "Let's go, this is it!"
…
"Why haven't you come yet?" Half an hour later, Oster frowned and looked at the sky in front of him where only a bird was flying slowly, and said in a deep voice.
"Should...should be here soon..." The orc who had vowed before wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and felt panicked.
The orcs looked at the empty sky with different expressions. No matter how slow Connie and the others flew, they would have arrived by now.
Everyone couldn't help but think of the last ambush. They had also waited here for a long time. As a result, Connie herself had arrived in the City of Chaos, and they didn't even see a bird feather.
"The person you are looking for should have no problems." Auster gave him a deep look.
"His whole family is in my hands, there will definitely be no problem." The orc wiped his cold sweat and nodded repeatedly.
This wait lasted another half hour.
They didn't wait for Connie, but they waited for a purple-striped gryphon coming from behind.
"Alex!"
Everyone couldn't help but exclaimed as they looked at the majestic purple-striped griffon and the person on the gryphon's back.
Mag looked at the line of mountain tops below. The orc strongmen headed by Oster frowned. There were six tenth-level strongmen alone, and there were dozens of eighth- and ninth-level orcs. Obviously They emptied the wealth of the war-faction orc tribe and put together such an ambush lineup.
But judging from their state, they probably haven't encountered Connie and the others yet.
This made him feel relieved, but at the same time he was a little confused. This place was not far from the Falk tribe and was the only way to go to the City of Chaos. Could it be that Connie and the others hadn't set off yet? He had not met Connie before flying all the way here.
"Alex, what are you doing in our orc tribe?!" Oster looked at Mag with some vigilance and shouted, several tenth-level orcs also approached his position.
The news that Alex killed Bruno has spread to the orcs. He was also one of the driving forces behind the ambush of Alex. Now Alex suddenly appears here. Could it be that he is here to cause trouble for him?
After breaking his arm, Oster's strength dropped drastically. He had witnessed the battle between Alex and the devil, and he couldn't muster any fighting spirit in front of Alex.
"Are you afraid that I'm going to kill you?" Mag looked at Oster with a half-smile and asked.
