In the hotel where the Imperial Messenger stayed, Jose sat on the bed and meditated with his eyes closed, absorbing the magic power in the air.

The Dragon Tooth clone is an alchemy life and can also independently absorb elemental energy in the air, strengthen itself, and improve the casting level. The Dragon Tooth clone inherits the body's ascetic will. Therefore, since its birth, the Dragon Tooth clone has never dared to slack off for a moment, and uses meditation to replace sleep at night.

Suddenly, the dragon man suddenly opened his eyes, and the cold light burst into his eyes, and soon calmed down again.

Silence for a while.

He couldn't help but sigh: "It's worthy of being an old fox. He has such a clever acting skills. Even I was almost deceived by you."

It turned out that after Jose failed to check the Dana royal family, he left a backup plan on being cautious, leaving a magic mark on everyone without the knowledge of the Dana royal family.

This magic mark is not revealed on weekdays and is not harmful. It is just that once it comes into contact with the undead energy, Jose will have some sense.

Just now, the magic mark he planted on the old King Dana was triggered, and the triggering position was deep in the land of the royal city.

In the darkness, Jose's face changed.

He quickly returned to his calmness, closed his eyes and continued to meditate.

"Let's go long and catch big fish."

At the same time, the capital of the Forse Empire, the seventh floor of the magic tower was hanging upside down.

The imperial emperor, who was studying the [Heart of Earth], had a sense of heart. He paused and continued to study the [Heart of Earth] for a while, but he only left a thought on the Dragon Teeth clone.

………………………………

The next day, Longya clone summoned all his subordinates, but did not tell everyone what they found. They did their own business according to the plan and arranged for everyone to look for clues around the Winter Castle.

Three days later, the investigation failed, and Jose said goodbye to Prince Dana, Charaman, saying that he would go south to view another country.

The eldest prince failed to keep the dragon. Seeing that the dragon man had no intention of leaving, he led the people to send the imperial delegation out of the city, watching the delegation disappear at the end of the road to the south.

After leaving the sight of Dana Royal City, Jose used his mental power to explore the surroundings, but did not find anyone surveillance. He wanted to return to Winter Castle alone, but when he thought that Winter Castle had a magic tower, he led the team to continue traveling south, staying away from the Magic Tower before making plans.

Until night, the messenger group entered a forest to camp and prepared to spend the night here.

Jose immediately summoned the four legendary powerful men, sat in a circle by the fire, and waved his hand to set up a magic barrier to prevent exploration.

After doing a good job of protection, Jose said lightly: "Everyone, on the first day of entering the Winter Castle, I found that King Dana had been exposed to the aura of the dead, and there was a high probability that he would have an affair with the [Psychic Church]."

"What?!"

The wild boar warrior - Berick Shiya was shocked and asked in confusion: "Master Lord! Why didn't you say it earlier?!"

"The Lord will make a point of reason if he doesn't say it," said the lizardman shaman Gus Panshui, answering the question of the wild boar man, but his eyes were looking at the dragon man.

The other two legendary powerful men also looked at the dragon man, waiting for explanation.

"The fewer people know about this, the less likely they will be to reveal flaws. I want people from the [Psychic Sect] to mistakenly think that we have left, relax our vigilance, facilitate further investigation and uproot them."

The Elf Ranger—Edise Wind Cutter nodded and recognized the Dragon Man's answer: "Then, Lord, what do you say now, but what do you want us to do?"

"This time I returned to Winter Castle was a secret infiltration. It was not good if there were too many people, so I decided to only bring Church with me."

Jose continued, "The rest of them continue to go south, don't reveal any flaws, so that the enemy can notice that I am not here."

The Dragon Man was the emperor appointed by the imperial emperor. In addition to the werewolves and thieves, all the legends were indeed not suitable for secret infiltration, and they followed the arrangements of the Dragon Man.

Jose called another soldier and recited a spell from his mouth, casting a spell to change the appearance of the soldier and become his own.

The gnolls are even simpler. There are already gnolls in the team, so they directly choose one with the same size and dress up.

After giving some explanation, Jose left the team with the zombies.

When dawn was dawn, the two disguised themselves as a pair of human mage masters and servants, mixed into the winter fort with the crowd, and began to look for a hotel to stay.

"Black Fish and Arrows," Jose, disguised as a mage, looked up at the hotel sign.

"It's all here."

After saying that, he brought the disguised zombies into the Black Fish and Arrow Tavern.

The reason I chose this remote tavern was because based on the induction results of that day, Jose found that the underground secret room of the [Psychic Sect] was just below the Black Fish and Arrow Tavern, and the probability of meeting the [Psychic Sect] personnel around here is higher.

After asking the owner of the tavern, he asked the owner of the tavern for two quiet rooms and stored the bags used for disguising them in the room, one master and one servant returned to the tavern hall.

"Boss! Come on with your specialty dishes, my master and I have been on the way for a day," the disguised gnoble shouted to the tavern owner.

"Hurry up! My master is a respected wizard master, you can't afford to offend!" The disguised gigolo looked arrogant, as if it was a great honor to serve the wizard.

In fact, this is true. In Tedanor, where the caster is respected, especially in the barren northern region, being able to become a servant of a mage, even a junior mage is a glory that ordinary people dream of.

The tavern owner nodded and bowed: "Yes, yes! I'll go and tell the kitchen that wild boar stewed potatoes is our tavern's specialty. Should the guests come to order?"

"Let's go ahead, I'm preparing a glass of wine for my master, and I want to give you good fruit wine..."

“…”

Church's Heart-Stirring Plays a vile mage servant who is successful, while Jose sat on the bench next to the window of the tavern, looking strange and unfamiliar, and also interprets the image of a cold mage to the fullest.

Jose sat at the dining table in the hall and started eating, while the servant served.

On the surface, he was eating food, but in fact he was collecting information secretly.

The main customers of this Black Fish and Arrow Tavern are residents of nearby streets. No matter which world, people gather together to drink some wine and talk more.

You can talk about anything, gossip about your neighbor's house, gossip between kingdom nobles, industry news, and the weird things that Jose wants to hear the most.

As long as the [Psychic Sect] is really active nearby, it is inevitable to meet nearby residents and listen to the conversations of nearby residents. Maybe there will be unexpected gains.

However, after a day, Jose was disappointed and he did not find any information that might be related to the [Psychic Sect].

"Sir, what will we do next?" asked Church Spike.

Jose replied lightly: "Don't worry, if you want to catch a big fish, you have to learn to wait."

After a pause, he continued, "However, when it's late at night, you can try to take the initiative and go to the surrounding area to find it. With our strength, we are not afraid of being discovered."

"Um."

At night, Jose sat on the bed and meditated, and suddenly heard a subtle sound of door opening under the tavern.

“Huh?!”

In an instant, all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind.

In this royal city where the magic tower is in charge, the strong are easily discovered by using their mental power, but the small magic is inconspicuous. After all, there are many wealthy families in the royal city with magic lamps.

With a thought, a light blue magic eyeball appeared in front of him, and the magic eyeball gradually disappeared.

Jose manipulated the secret eye of invisible technique and explored downwards.

After a while, he saw the scene below the tavern.

The fat tavern owner held up a lantern full of oil, pushed open the kitchen door, and walked into the tavern basement along the downward passage on the kitchen.

In Tedanor, it is normal for a tavern to have a basement, because the basement of a tavern has always served as a wine cellar, and it stores fine wine.

"It's midnight, what are the tavern owners doing in the wine cellar?" Jose raised his brows, and there was a vague guess in his heart.

Sure enough, the tavern owner was familiar with the road, opened a secret door on the wall of the wine cellar and walked into the secret door.

In the secret room, the owner of the tavern saw a man in black robe and saluted respectfully: "Sir."

"How are you doing recently? Is there any abnormalities in Winter Castle?"

"No, everything is OK."

"That's good, the people of the Fuse Empire leave, be careful in everything."

"Abide by the teachings of the adults," the tavern owner bowed again.

He immediately handed over a roll of paper: "Sir, this is the information sent back tonight."

The adult from the tavern owner took the paper, unfolded it, took a look, and was obviously relieved.

Jose saw the contents of the paper through the Eye of Secret Art, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face, because the first piece of information recorded on the paper was the arrival of the Forse Empire delegation to a certain city.

"I never expected that I could find the thief in every way, but instead lived at the thief's house," he sighed in his heart, and he continued to eavesdrop on the conversation between the two.

From the few words revealed by the conversation between the two, he speculated that the owner of the tavern was an external intelligence officer of the [Psychic Sect], and the man in black robe was a lower-level member of the [Psychic Sect].

In the darkness, Jose's eyes were shady and he was thinking about his actions later.

The man in black robe and the owner of the tavern were insignificant. As long as he wanted, he could control the two of them in an instant, so that they could not send any warning messages.

However, now he knows nothing about the [Psychic Sect] underground in the Cold Winter Fort, but he doesn't want to be alerted.

"Forget it, now that there are clues, everything is much easier to do, so I'll leave you for a few days."

The man in black robe and the tavern owner did not notice the secret eye of peeping. After chatting for a while, they separated. The man in black robe returned the same way, but the man in black robe opened another secret door in the secret room, revealing the downward stairs behind the secret door.

The light technique flew, and the man in black robes walked down the ladder, towards the depths of the earth, with the eyes of the secret technique following closely behind.

Following the man in black robe, Jose discovered a situation.

Passages were dug out from the underground of the Cold Winter Fort, and there were countless secret doors. This was no longer the three holes of cunning rabbits, but the three hundred holes of cunning rabbits.

"I didn't expect that the underground of this cold winter fort was actually hollowed out. Judging from the excavation traces, it was definitely not something that happened in recent years."

As soon as he thought of this, Jose hesitated a little.

It would be fine if this place was just a new base of [Psychic Sect], but the enemy has been operating here for many years. God knows how many traps the undead have set up in their lairs and how powerful the magic barriers.

Therefore, he noticed that the undead aura began to appear in the passage, so he let the Secret Eye return, and after he stayed away from the core of the [Psychological Sect], the Secret Eye dissipated silently.

"The big fish is a big fish, but it is beyond my expectations," Jose murmured to himself.

"Even if this underground winter castle is not the largest stronghold of the [Psychic Sect], it is also one of the main strongholds."

"Do you want the body to take action?"

The thought flashed through my mind and immediately gave up the idea.

On the one hand, the Red Dragon body is studying [Heart of the Earth] and planning to create a powerful magical equipment to [Heart of the Earth], which he does not want to disturb.

On the other hand, the Dragon Teeth clone inherited the idea of ​​the Ontology and also had its own pride. If you don’t want to encounter difficulties, you will ask the Ontology for help.

"It's interesting to have challenges," Jose murmured to himself, closed his eyes and continued to meditate.

"Let's wait to collect more information before making a decision."

Three days have passed.

During these three days, Jose used his charm magic to secretly control the tavern owner and got some information from him.

However, the tavern owner was just a member of peripheral intelligence and had very limited information.

Jose intends to go a step further and control the peripheral member of the [Psychic Sect] who is in contact with the tavern owner - the man in black robe.

The man in black robe is different from the owner of a tavern. Although he is also a member of the lower class of the [Psychic Sect], he can go deep into the ground and must know more information.

The control process went very smoothly. Facing the experienced hunter, the man in black robe was captured without the slightest ability to resist.

Intermediate magic - charming humans.

Facing a flash of redness in the eyes of the tavern owner, the man in black robe immediately became dull. At the same time, Jose appeared silently in the basement.

He first checked the body of the man in black, but did not find the magic restriction, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Yes, no matter how cautious the [Psychic Sect] is, it will not impose a magical ban on a lower-level member.

"Are you a member of the [Psychic Sect]?"

"Yes," the man in black robe had no eyes.

Jose continued: "Tell me, how many people are there in the [Psychic Sect], who is the strongest? What is your purpose? Did the Dana royal family completely surrender to the [Psychic Sect]..."

“…”

The man in black robe answered one by one, but the answer was a bit vague.

He didn't know how many people there were in the Winter Castle of the [Psychic Sect], and only he knew there were 100 people.

No one knows the strongest person, he only knows the nickname of the leader here - [Death Oath].

As for the purpose of the [Psychic Sect] organization, he, a member of the lower class, doesn't know.

What surprised Jose was that the man in black gave a definite answer to the question of whether the Dana royal family completely defected to the [Psychic Sect].

The answer is no.
