Chapter 20: Doubt and the Fire

There was silence in the treehouse, and everyone was nervously watching Bernardo, who was scanning the arrows and the map.

After a long time, he finally raised his head and looked at Malfurion.

"Judging from the arrowhead and the injuries described by General Oak, it does look like something done by the rangers."

Bernardo affirmed angrily. Immediately, while the generals in the tree house showed angry expressions at the same time, Bernardo's expression also became slightly confused.

"But what puzzles me is that I didn't hear any screams... Sirs, have you confirmed the time? When were they killed that night?"



"If it was before three o'clock at night, when I couldn't sleep because of the unbearable pain from the wound, I got up and patrolled the camp. For a long time, I walked up and down the high watchtower. Until I saw

It was already three o'clock in the evening, so I was worried about delaying tomorrow's morning exercise and went back to my room to sleep - during that time, I was sure that I didn't feel anything unusual."

"As you all know, I am also a star. If they were attacked and killed by the rangers, even though they were far away, I might not see the light trails of arrows filled with magic energy in the night, right?

Furthermore, to be able to kill a great druid with one blow, the arrow must have been fired by at least a star-level ranger, so the whistle of the arrow should be audible to me who is nearby, right?"

"As for the unusual situation in the Ranger Legion camp, sir, I'm afraid it's impossible to tell - we have been at war with each other these past few days, and it is always an abnormal situation." [

Bernardo said in confusion.



"They must have been killed after three o'clock in the middle of the night!"

Oak affirmed.

"After three o'clock..."

Malfurion pondered, and looked at Bernardo's captain: "Your Seventh Brigade will also go out to patrol the camp after three o'clock? The two brothers who were killed will patrol the camp.

Is it during this time period?”

he asked in a low voice.



"Yes, sir, it was mainly caused by the disappearance of the rangers a while ago. That group of rangers attacked our camp several times in the past few days, and kept saying that we were the murderers, which almost turned into a riot. It was still you and the ranger army.

Lord Commander Cenarius worked together to suppress it, so it didn't cause a catastrophe."

"But we must also guard against their possible tricks. Therefore, in the past few days, the First Legion has been on intense alert almost day and night in accordance with the instructions of the Legion Commander. Our Seventh Brigade, which is adjacent to the Ranger Camp, is the first to bear the brunt."

"And the two brothers who were killed were in charge of patrolling the camp that night. They would continue to patrol the military camp, whether before three o'clock or after three o'clock."

The captain replied respectfully.



"Does that mean the murder could have happened after three o'clock?"

Malfurion frowned and looked at Bernardo again.[

"Yes, sir. If it happened after three o'clock, then we might not be able to detect anything unusual - if it weren't for a star like me or above, we would be soldiers on duty on the watchtower unless we happened to be facing that direction.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to detect the anomaly that ends almost instantly in the distance with eyes or ears."

"But that direction is behind us, and it is a safer area that is neither bordered by the ranger camp nor the coastline - most of our sentries will not face that direction. And although that place is closest to us, it is only

Compared to other camps, it’s just the closest, but actually it’s still a bit far away.”

Bernardo looked at the map and nodded in affirmation.



"Then we can't be sure that it was the rangers who murdered our two brothers..."

Malfurion suddenly frowned again and said in a deep voice.

"How can you be sure? Sir, doesn't that arrow prove everything?"

Oak suddenly became anxious and asked in protest.

"It does prove that the Rangers were responsible for the murder in ten cases, but we can't even determine the time, so how can we find the suspect?"

Malfurion smiled bitterly.

"You don't know. The rangers who disappeared more than ten days ago look very much like we did it. The scars on the bodies of the two rangers are clearly the methods of our druids - Cenarius almost fell out with me.

Even the upper echelons of the Deistic Church are furious about this, implying that they have full authority to take any level of action against us."



"In the end, I tried my best to persuade him: We are soldiers, and we belong to the same elven empire, and we are protecting our compatriots. We cannot kill each other. You only suspected that it was the druid who did it. You didn't even know the time and place of the murder.

Clearly, the suspect cannot be found, and there is no real evidence. I can also guarantee with my reputation that this was definitely not done by our druids."

"In the end, Cenarius, who was full of anger, finally reluctantly agreed to join forces with me to quell all this first, and then wait until the murderer is found. He is secretly trying his best to find the murderer - but he has been unsuccessful."

"This time, we have become the victims... Damn it, could it really be those disgruntled rangers under Cenarius who did it? But equally, even if we suspect this is the case, we may not be able to find the real suspect until we find the real suspect.

The law is against them."

Malfurion said a series of words with a wry smile, his expression full of frustration.



"Then let's forget it. Find the suspect? Can we find it? Let me tell you, if we rush in and search the Ranger barracks, we will definitely find the suspect!"

Oak stood up and said angrily, and all the Druid officers in the room were also furious.

"Oak, you are too impulsive."

Malfurion smiled bitterly and shook his head slightly: "I said, if we can't completely confirm that it was them, we must also exercise restraint. After all, they have restrained before."



"But we didn't kill their people, but our people lost two lives because of their suspicion and cruelty! Two living lives! Sir, they are all loyal officers and soldiers of my Druid Legion.

, I am a staunch supporter of the Life God Religion, a husband and father of two children in a happy family!"

"If we can't seek justice for them, who are we adults?"

Oak said with tears streaming down his face. The druid officers in the room had sad faces, and even more expressions were filled with anger.

Malfurion also fell silent, his face trembling violently. Finally, he took a deep breath.



"But after all... although we believe in the great Tyrande, we are displeased with the natural cultists who have become increasingly rampant in recent years... but we are also... the guardians of our compatriots... how can we be guilty?

fight……"

"Let's... wait and see... everyone who knows this matter will... keep it secret for the time being."

He said hesitantly.

"Bernardo, spread out your squadrons and look for any suspicious signs around the incident site - dig down three feet to find clues and find the murderer!"

Immediately, he looked at Bernardo who also had an angry face and shouted sharply.

~~~~~~~~~

"Sir, things are going extremely smoothly. Now, we have set up the fires on both sides... The only thing missing is just a small flame. We can detonate them at any time. It has to be said that although both sides are raging, they will

The situation has been controlled within the respective camps and has not spread."

"Malfurion and Cenarius have reached a tacit understanding, and they will not break up. Although these two people are fanatics and backbones of their respective churches, after all, they have led the army for many years. Their responsibilities to the soldiers are also

Care deeply and know the appropriateness.”

After the public sentiment in the tree house of the Druid camp was surging and was suppressed by force, somewhere in Teldrassil, a shadow was reporting to a tall and ferocious figure.



"Oh... Well done. Ignore them. No matter how much they take the overall situation into consideration, they won't be able to suppress everything when we blow everything up - by the way, the backstabbers are quite nimble. We have developed

The secret spies have not been exposed, right?"

The tall figure immediately praised him with approval, and then asked again.

"That's natural. The brothers' hands and feet are very clean. As long as we want, we guarantee that we can let either side of the party or at the same time discover the clues at any time we want, and lay them out all the way to the 'murderer' we want.

As for the secret spies... they only need to inflame their emotions a little, and they only need to draw suspicion to the 'murderer' after we decide to detonate, and they are unlikely to be 'exposed'. Sir, you can rest assured."

Shadow smiled proudly.



"Well...it's not advisable to do too much of this kind of thing. If you do too much, it will inevitably reveal traces of conspiracy. No more, no less, twice is best. Wait until they find the 'truth' that they think is true.

Finally, those two natural battles looked like a personal vendetta between the druid and the ranger, and then turned out to be a murderous murder case of revenge by the rangers... Coupled with the fanning of the flames by our secret agents, everything will naturally explode."

"When the two remaining legions of the elves started fighting, when the elves fell into a whirlpool of internal strife and couldn't extricate themselves, when the elves split into two and started fighting a civil war, they were unable to resist any pressure from the outside world.

.”

"I want to see how these idiot elves dare to hesitate under the heavy pressure of our clan - huh, since you still have the ability to resist, and our clan's vitality is severely weakened, do you dare to give in to our demands?

? Obediently offer the holy water of life!"



"You know, we can't wait for more than ten years - as long as our god is restored, the so-called United Nations in Nagrand will be in ruins!"

"And even more fortunately, my god, who has been strengthened by that damn Xie Ning and his damn wife... maybe I will no longer be limited by the fragile plane passage because the soul spiral is too powerful, and we will not need to conquer it.

After the Mountain and Sea activates the largest magic field on the entire planet, can we lead us to directly conquer the Mountain and Sea?"

"When the time comes, everything will be determined by a twist of fate!"

The tall figure smiled proudly and said a series of ferocious words.



"For the great cause of my great barbarian tribe leading to the land of eternal peace... As the most direct leader of the Shadow Clan of His Majesty God, work hard, Mr. Hal. As long as you succeed, your achievements will be recorded in the history of the clan forever!"

Then, he looked at the shadow and said.

"Hey! Long live my God!"

Shadow nodded excitedly and replied respectfully. (To be continued...)
