The only participants at the meeting were Li Ran and the leader of Star Wind Shadow, An Ke.
In the small conference room, the two people sat opposite each other. There were densely packed clue cards on the table, which contained the investigation and analysis of suspicious characters.
Currently, without being able to confirm his identity, Li Ran in the entire Black Cliff City only believes in An Ke and Yibei Si.
These clue cards were also personally investigated and produced by An Ke.
In order to avoid causing trouble, we must find out who the succubus pretender is as soon as possible. The werewolf killing game has come to an end.
Li Ran fiddled with a clue card, looked at An Ji and said in a deep voice:
"If the pretender wants to send back information, she must leave Black Cliff City and return to the legion. As long as we tightly control the flow of people leaving the city, we can prevent her from forcibly leaving the city."
An Ke nodded: "You are right. We have made special arrangements for the agents of Star Wind Shadow's operation out of the city. We require multiple people to work in groups, and everyone must move in sync. In this way, the pretenders can be eliminated.
Possibility of escape midway.”
Li Ran showed an expression of appreciation and continued to ask: "How is the interrogation of the demon soldiers going?"
"We maintained a high degree of covert operations in the surrounding areas of the demon army, and captured dozens of low- to mid-level wandering demons without alerting the enemy. Some of them were soldiers who were sent out for reconnaissance, and some were simply stray wanderers who had gotten too lost.
.”
An Ke pushed a clue card to Li Ran and raised his tone a few points: "After investigation, we made a major discovery. When the dark alchemist interrogated a captured succubus, he discovered that she was a
pretender."
"Oh? You caught a new pretender?"
"Yes, we did not catch the pretender who sneaked into the city, but we captured her clan members, and we paid close attention to her suspicious behavior of staying away from the clan and legion."
"In the end, the dark alchemist did not hesitate to use secret methods to completely destroy her demon soul, and we learned the truth of the matter."
"What truth?"
"She is the relay and connector for the Pretender's intelligence."
"She will wait at the designated location for the pretenders entering the city to come, and then pass back the information she received."
"The succubus pretenders who have sneaked into the city will follow the predetermined plan. Once they have the opportunity to go out, they will come to the predetermined location to contact them. After exchanging information, the pretenders will still return to the lurking area and continue to bring the latest information to the demon army.
.”
"In this way, no matter where the Griffon Claw escapes, or how many small troops it splits into, they will all be strangled to death by the demon army who knows its whereabouts and strategy."
Li Ran was surprised and said: "I didn't expect the thick-lined demons to have such scheming intentions. It's just that they don't know the existence of the Star Wind Leader at all. This is our huge advantage. The information gap will win us the initiative. They know nothing about what really happened."
Know!"
He nodded secretly and continued: "The proactive strategy you deployed has achieved miraculous results. Now, we are waiting for your instructions to take the next step."
Li Ran rubbed his stubble and thought about it. After a long time, he asked, "Is there any way we can disguise ourselves as the succubus from the joint?"
"?"
Secretly, I didn't understand what Li Ran meant for a moment. His direct leader's thinking was always different from ordinary people.
She asked tentatively: "You mean, disguised as the succubus we captured?"
"That's right, can we do something similar?"
Hidden in the dark: "We don't have the same ability to devour souls and disguise as succubi, but during the interrogation, we learned their secret code."
"It was hard for me to believe at first that communication between pretenders also requires a secret code, because the image and aura of the pretender have been completely transformed into the appearance of the victim, and it is often difficult to distinguish between different pretenders.
"
Li Ran's eyes lit up, "What is the code? Tell me."
"The code is, who is Shelgo's most powerful succubus?"
...
Next to the garbage dump, a mouse is eating.
Suddenly, a dagger flew over and pinned the mouse to the ground.
A stalker stepped out of the shadows of the alley.
It's Carlisle.
She picked up the mouse and put the whole mouse into her mouth. When the meat was broken into pieces and the bones were rotten, it was as if she had eaten something delicious, and her eyes radiated with joy.
"It's been a long time since I've eaten fresh flesh and blood. The Shadow Fern made me panic. It's unbelievable that these dark elves live by eating this stuff."
She licked her lips and reluctantly walked onto the path leading to the Assassin's Guild.
Carlisle has just received a secret instruction. She will join a team of stalkers to carry out a mission to detect the demon army.
She arrived at the reservation location on time, and several experienced stalkers had already lined up.
An Ke walked over from the side.
"Today's reconnaissance mission is very important. I will personally lead the team. Because of the existence of succubus pretenders, we should not be careless. Everyone should keep an eye on each other when performing the mission."
"Understood, leader!"
The team immediately set off and left the Black Cliff through a secret route. Without anyone noticing, they turned to the northwest and headed toward the underground world.
As we get closer to the huge demon army, the terrain also changes, with the hills and soil gradually turning into an earthy red color that resembles a hellish environment.
The underground river meanders through the land full of ravines, and the group of people secretly conducts reconnaissance along the underground river carefully.
Carlisle knew that the time to pass on the information was coming soon.
Facing the threat of the Pretender, Blackcliff City has made many restrictions. She cannot leave Blackcliff City alone, nor can she escape the sight of her teammates while performing tasks.
Secretly at the front of the team, she made professional tactical gestures from time to time to lead the team's actions.
After absorbing the memory of the original owner, she perfectly inherited most of Carlisle's skills.
Carlisle clearly remembered every command and gesture of the stalker troops and executed the tactical actions perfectly.
A copy of the memories and skills of an elite Rogue - this is one of the biggest gains of her trip. After returning to Shelgo, these skills can be used next time.
As the investigation progressed, Carlisle became increasingly anxious.
The wind spirit plain full of death has awakened, the curse has been lifted, and humans and dark elves have regained a foothold there.
Although it cannot be compared with Talengard's garrison for the time being, or even unable to compete with the demon army that has entered the underground, the power of the Star Wind Leader is rapidly increasing.
The people in this imperial territory may not be able to challenge the Legion in the future.
The information must be passed back as soon as possible.
She wanted to leave the team and go to a predetermined location to deliver the information to her contact, but now was obviously not the time.
If she forces her way out, she will be immediately attacked by other teammates.
Fortunately, An Ke led them to the area for investigation, getting closer and closer to the scheduled meeting point.
The last thing the pretender lacks is patience. What he needs now is just an opportunity.
…
Under the guidance of An Ke, the team went to the ridge on the side of the valley to lurk.
A peripheral reconnaissance team of the Demon Legion walked under the mountain.
Carlisle almost wanted to jump off the cliff and order this army to destroy An Ke and her soldiers!
But she cannot be exposed now, not to mention that the demon's army is not enough to fight against the stalkers.
Finally, the opportunity came.
A hellhound slipped up the hillside at some point, discovered the stalker's traces, and started barking.
Before the hellhound died, the demon reconnaissance team also saw the figure of the dark elf. They were smart enough not to fight, but immediately fled the scene and reported important information about the appearance of the dark elf to the legion.
And An Ke's choice surprised Carlisle.
In order to intercept and kill the scattered fleeing demon soldiers and prevent fish from slipping through the net, an order to disperse the attack was secretly issued!
Now, Carlisle can easily escape from the sight of others, and when he returns to the team later, he only needs to lie about hunting down a stray demon!
The most important thing is that it is not far from the scheduled meeting point, and it only takes a short time to complete the transmission of information and return!
The stalkers immediately spread out and chased enemies in different directions.
Carlisle was last, and after everyone else rushed forward, she immediately turned to the other direction.
High-end secret agent skills don't require any special actions, Carlisle thought, they just need to play by ear.
After traveling quickly across the country, Carlisle finally arrived at the scheduled meeting point.
Carlisle walked into the ring of red sand dunes and saw a man wearing a black cloak and hood waiting here.
Not a devil.
Alarm rose in her heart.
The man in black was leaning on the sand dune in a daze in boredom. When he saw her coming, he immediately stood up straight and complained:
"I've been waiting here for eight days, eight whole days. Do you know how I got here?"
Carlisle took out the dagger, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked tentatively: "Who are you waiting for?"
The hood covered his face, but the man in black was obviously stunned for a moment, and then asked with a smile:
"Who is Shelgo's most powerful succubus?"
Carlisle patted his chest, let out a long breath, and then said excitedly: "Of course it is Ms. Abby, the Succubus King! Her conspiracy will destroy the world!"
After encountering this secret code that could never be leaked, Carlisle couldn't help but ask: "How did you become like this?"
The man in black smiled and said: "Do you know why? I successfully sneaked into the Griffin Claw camp! I now occupy the body of a human, but how did you become a dark elf?"
His voice was full of disbelief: "If I hadn't seen you in this secret meeting place that cannot be leaked, I would have thought I was hallucinating!"
Carlisle said proudly: "I discovered an amazing news! The exiles of humans and dark elves have joined forces to build a city, and they are dancing under the eyes of Lord Talengard!"
The succubus pretender said in a cold voice: "Their doom is coming! Tell the Lord Warlord, please lead the legion to the southwest and capture two cities that are as fragile as paper. The Hell Knight's territory is waving to him!"
The man in black said in surprise: "I thought I was successful enough, but I didn't expect you to find such a shocking thing!"
"Humph, of course," Carlisle said with a smile on his face, "Don't forget to tell the Lord Warlord that this is from...wait, what did you just say?"
As an experienced pretender, and having absorbed the memories and experiences of elite stalkers, Carlisle suddenly felt a strong crisis.
Because she heard a word that the devil could not possibly say.
Shocking big melon, what does that mean!?
The man in black shook his head and took off the hood on his head, revealing a face that Lyle had seen up close before.
Li Ran, Lord of Star Wind!
At this moment, the face in front of her made her feel more frightened and horrified than Serge's demon king's face!
Why, it could be him!?
Shadow and the Rogues poured out from behind the dunes, glaring at the demon who killed and desecrated their teammates.
Carlisle raised his dagger and stared at the man in front of him.
Li Ran looked regretful, shook his head and said: "I didn't expect it was you, and I made a mistake. Didn't you feel great that you acted in front of me that day and successfully deceived me?"
Carlisle's expression suddenly changed, and the dark elf's beautiful body twisted like a snake. She stretched out her tongue and licked her lower lip, with a blush on her cheeks, and her eyes were full of fiery love and attachment.
"I have been exposed and it is impossible to return to the legion. The great Lord of Star Wind, Mr. Li Ran, you have the broad mind of a great man. Even Black Cliff City falls at your feet. You are so brave and wise. In the future
We will surely restore the Griffin Principality and drive out the unjust demon king Sergo, so let me become your follower!"
Carlisle's voice is extremely seductive, and his talent for charm is fully unleashed, capable of destroying the defenses of any man in the world.
He secretly looked at Li Ran nervously, and saw that this quick-thinking lord actually looked thoughtful, looking at the succubus's body with interest.
An Ke clutched the dagger tightly.
When they were at Black Hand School, she and Carlisle were in the same batch of students.
Later, they were comrades in a stalker team, and she became Carlisle's captain.
After gaining Ibeth's trust and being re-appointed as the leader of the Rogues, Carlisle became her right-hand man who fully supported her.
Carlisle was one of the people she trusted most at all times.
Why... I suddenly felt that my breathing became extremely heavy.
The person who murdered her comrades was right in front of her, but she couldn't take action.
As the absolute ruler of Black Cliff City and the master who has all the power to dispose of the god's castle, as long as Li Ran nods and agrees to Carlisle's joining, they can't change anything.
"Let me serve you... I am the most powerful pretender in the tribe, and I will definitely establish new achievements for you. I am also the best professional in the tribe..."
Snapped!
Li Ran knocked the succubus to the ground with a fierce slap!
He cursed angrily: "What labor and management hate the most is you, a cheap and green bitch! Just now you wanted to raise my ashes, and when you turn around, you kneel down and lick me! Do you treat me as a spare tire? I'll fuck you! The women around me
What kind of people are they? Dragon knights! Inspectors! Shadow witches! Is someone like you worthy of joining me?"
The succubus pretender fell to the ground and looked at him in shock.
Li Ran winked at An Ke, and the leader of Star Wind Shadow, who was already furious, immediately rushed forward and punched the succubus.
After the succubus was beaten to death, she secretly grabbed her assassin leather armor and said fiercely:
"I will not kill you easily. I will hand you over to those bastards who are full of dark alchemy. They will separate the soul fragments and memories belonging to Carlisle from you, a dirty bitch, your devil."
The soul cannot return to hell and must accept eternal torture!"
After doing all this, the stalkers immediately set off to bring the mute succubus pretender back to Black Cliff City.
He took a deep breath and said silently in his heart:
Carlisle, I'm sorry, this is my dereliction of duty...
sorry……
Rest in peace, sister...
Not far away, the succubus pretender's mouth curled up after being beaten unconscious.
Thank you, captain.
"Lord, was it you who spoke just now?" He looked at Li Ran in confusion.
Li Ran pulled away from his thoughts and wondered: "I don't have one?"
No?
He silently watched the stalker team that had walked away.
a long time.
Li Ran saw An Ke turn around and looked at him coldly as usual, with tears in his eyes and a smile as bright as a flower.
