239 Investigation
Since something like this had happened, there was no way Su Ming would let them continue with this so-called mission.
Otherwise, if he were to lose these two teams as well, he would lose a lot of money.
Once the two of them left, Zelda also turned around to look at Su Ming. There was a hint of worry and doubt on her face.
“Great Prophet, if it’s as they say, then our only suspicious target is the Vast Flame Kingdom, right?”
!!
When Su Ming heard this, he first nodded his head, but once he sat down in his seat, he shook his head.
When she saw Su Ming’s actions, Zelda was momentarily at a loss. There was a puzzled expression on his face.
“Great Prophet, what do you mean by this?”
Su Ming lifted his eyes and cast a glance at Zelda before he said slowly, “Don’t you think that this is a little too strange?”
“Our elven hunters have all received professional training, so there’s no need to talk about their quality.
“I can even say that even if they become professional assassins, they can also become gold-ranked assassins.
“However, this group of elites didn’t even enter the kingdom. They only appeared a hundred kilometers away from the Kingdom’s borders before mysteriously disappearing.”
“If this is the Vast Flame Kingdom’s doing, then isn’t their border defense a little too strong?”
“If they were really that powerful, I think they would have already conquered this area.
Once she heard Su Ming’s words, Zelda’s pupils instantly shrank, and her expression showed that she had just been enlightened.
“That’s right. No matter how I look at it, something doesn’t seem right. If our party was really captured by the Vast Flame Kingdom, aren’t they a little too powerful?”
“Moreover, with the abilities of our elven Hunter squad, as long as they aren’t surrounded by the Army of the Vast Flame Kingdom, they won’t be completely annihilated in that forest terrain.”
When he heard Zelda’s words, Su Ming nodded, and the expression on his face became even more solemn.
“Then, Great Prophet, what should we do now?”
When he heard that, Su Ming first lifted his eyes and looked at Zelda, then took a deep breath and said, “I’ll go over and take a look.”
Zelda was stunned for a moment before her expression turned serious. She quickly objected, “No! Great Prophet, it’s too dangerous for you to go alone. Our Elf Valley can’t afford to take such a risk.”
“If something happens to you, our Elf Valley will be in chaos.”
Zelda’s words were not exaggerated.
Su Ming’s role was definitely not to be ignored as he was one of the reasons why the Elf Valley was able to unite.
If Su Ming mysteriously disappeared, then the Elf Valley would definitely fall apart.
When Su Ming heard her words, he shook his head and said, “Someone will have to investigate this matter sooner or later. This is a critical time for the town’s development, and I don’t want this news to spread and cause panic.”
“So, it’s best for me to investigate it myself.”
“Moreover, with my abilities, even if I encounter danger, I can escape with my life.”
When he saw that Zelda still wanted to say something, Su Ming continued, “I’ll bring Mike with me. With his protection, I’ll be much safer.”
When she heard this, Zelda seemed to have no idea how to continue persuading Su Ming.
Seeing his calm and determined expression, Zelda finally heaved a sigh of relief. She looked helpless.
“Well, since you’ve already decided, I can’t refute you.”
Zelda paused for a moment and said, “In that case, I’ll leave this matter to the Great Prophet to investigate.”
The moment Zelda finished speaking, the game notification lit up before Su Ming.
[ Congratulations on triggering the mission: investigate the missing elf team ]
[ Mission reward: God shadow boots, gold coins *100, experience points *30000. ]
[ Mission description: the investigation team in the Elf Valley has mysteriously disappeared near the Vast Flame Kingdom. Elf commander Zelda hopes that you can help the Elf Valley investigate the truth behind this matter. ]
Su Ming could not help but raise his eyebrows when he saw the description of the reward on the mission panel. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
Zelda was really generous to him.
An investigation mission actually gave a hundred gold coins as a reward.
That would be about 900 Yuan in Yuan.
After all, based on the content of Su Ming’s conversations with Su Xiaoshan and Shen Yi…
Normally, the missions they accepted would only reward them with a few silver coins, which was better than nothing.
It wasn’t realistic to rely on this to earn money.
Therefore, Shen Yi had already made up her mind to quickly widen the level gap between her and the normal players. After she had nurtured her tribe, she would then farm for equipment and sell it to the normal players.
Once he gathered his thoughts, Su Ming looked at Zelda before him and said,
After this, if there’s any other news related to this matter, remember to inform me immediately.
When he saw Zelda nodding her head seriously, Su Ming also nodded his head, then got up and left Zelda’s place.
Once he left Zelda’s place, Su Ming went straight to Crouching Dragon Mountain and observed the situation from afar.
Once he was certain that the project on Crouching Dragon Mountain was progressing steadily, Su Ming found Mike at the entrance of the elf town.
Since he had already accepted the mission, Su Ming did not want to waste any more time. He wanted to complete the mission as soon as possible.
When Mike learned that Su Ming was going out to investigate, he immediately became excited.
Although he also felt that it was very cool to act cool at the entrance of the town, that kind of feeling was still not comparable to the adventure outside.
That was why when he heard that Su Ming was going to take him out, Mike instantly became a little excited.
After that, Su Ming found his three pets, Da Bai, Ben Ben, and little Golden Dragon, who were playing together in the town.
When Su Ming found them playing around the Tree of Life, he sighed in his heart.
He already had three pets before he knew it?
And each one was more powerful than the last.
Su Ming clearly remembered that the last time he looked at the ranking board, he saw that the little Golden Dragon had already made it into the top ten of the divine Pets ranking board.
