“The Japanese Fairy Envoy has suffered heavy losses. Prince Milleras’ personal guard has suffered heavy casualties, and even the prince himself has suffered minor injuries.” Elistine was slightly stunned. Although he didn’t know why Qin Lun asked about the situation of the Sun Fairy, he still told the truth.

“Oh, this is really … regretful!” Qin Lun’s eyes lit up and he casually asked, “Where are the mercenaries they hired? Didn’t they help the prince?”

“Mercenaries? Well, it seems like two human mercenaries have died. However, there are only eight of them in total. They probably didn’t play any role!” Elistine said with some uncertainty.

Qin Lun smiled and didn’t say anything else. Elistine had been with him in this battle, and he only had a rough idea of the process of the attack on the Japanese elves, not enough knowledge of the strength of the apostles.

However, Qin Lun was different. He knew that the Lost Rookies had played a crucial role in protecting Milleras. Otherwise, the Sun Elf Prince, who had suffered heavy casualties from his personal guards, would definitely not have suffered a slight injury.

Judging from the close cooperation between the orc cavalry and the assassins, the attackers had already planned this. Furthermore, they were very powerful behind the scenes. They were even confident that they could grasp the orc’s double-edged sword.

From Qin Lun’s point of view, the main target of this attack was obviously the Sun Fairy Envoy. As for the Moon Fairy’s core higher-ups, including him, a descendant of the pseudo-royal family, they were only secondary targets. Even so, all the stealth he encountered were at least at the level of high-level apostles.

Although Qin Lun didn’t have much equipment, he had already comprehended the Heart of the Hunter. In addition to the [Splitting Blood] that the Heart of Slaughter had transformed into, his martial power was extremely close to Second Grade, but under the attack of the Stealth Cultivator, he didn’t have the ability to retaliate. Even Joey could only save his life by relying on his momentary bravery and using the life-for-injury strategy.

This wasn’t because he wasn’t prepared enough, or because he had lost his first hand. Instead, it was because high-level professions faced low-level professions and were completely suppressed in terms of absolute force. As for the counterattack from the Star Black Hole, most of the credit was due to Elistine and the other two Elven Rangers. Otherwise, with the Star Black Hole’s several seconds of preparation, he wouldn’t have had the chance to attack the Stealth Ranger.

The enemies that the secondary targets encountered were all so powerful. Their main target, Milleras, who had an entire team of Sun Elves’ personal guards, was under a lot of pressure. There were definitely more than one or two high-level professions attacking there.

“Two people actually died!” Qin Lun raised his eyebrows. It had to be said that this result was somewhat beyond his expectations.

Single apostles and team apostles exhibit significant differences in combat effectiveness in small-scale battles, especially in mixed teams such as the Lost Newcomers, which combine professions. This was definitely not a simple addition-subtraction relationship. Compared to a single apostle, the combat strength of a team with tacit understanding would increase exponentially.

“Elistine, do the elders know the identity of the attacker?” Qin Lun asked slowly.

“Got it, it’s the notorious Santalin Society!” Elistine gritted his teeth and said. For the first time, a trace of ferocity appeared on his sweet and delicate face. He hesitated for a moment before continuing, “Grand Elder Adrienne reckons that their target is Prince Milleras. The assassination of the upper echelons of the clan and the descendants of the royal family should only be done by chance. In any case, the peace-loving elves have always been their mortal enemies.”

Santalin? Hearing this name, Qin Lun quickly recalled the two small intelligence gathering missions he had received back then, “Harpsichord” and “Santalin Society”. Looking at the death list, he found that the two small missions had disappeared. However, the two terms could already be found in the death list. It seemed that Broken Star had received detailed information from the other apostles.

Although the intelligence gathering task was a small personal task, it was issued to all the apostles who entered this world. Since someone had already completed it, it would naturally disappear from the other apostles’ task bar.

In order not to reveal his identity as an apostle, Qin Lun didn’t look for anyone to inquire about these two small missions. He sank his consciousness into the death list and listened to Elistine’s explanation as he looked at information about the Santalin Society and the Harpsichord.

The Santalin Society was composed of mages, priests, warriors, and thieves from the evil faction. Its main bases were Fort Santir, Tibetan Black Town, and Crow Stronghold in the Lunar Sea. It was also known as the Dark Intelligence Network. It was an extremely evil organization.

Whatever was not under their direct control, they would not hesitate to use any terrifying means to force them to submit or secretly weaken their strength until they could no longer pose any threat to Santalin and obediently submit.

The main purpose of the Santalin Society was to control the Lunar Sea region, secretly control all the political centers in the region, and control the trade routes of the Lunar Sea to the most prosperous areas of the continent, such as the Fallen Star Sea, Steam Lake, and Sword Bay.

The leadership group of the Santalin Society is known as the “inner ring” and consists of a number of people. This evil organization was very powerful. Because it had controlled the gold trade routes for many years, it had the funds to recruit many experts from the evil faction.

Today, the Santalin Society had become a cancer on the Fallen Continent, threatening the peace of many human kingdoms and intelligent races. However, the organization’s loose leadership, weak cohesion and lack of a clear political platform and ultimate goal have prevented it from becoming a reality for many years.

The biggest opponent of the Santalin Society was the Harpsichord Alliance. Non-evil people of all ages, professions, and races in Fallen Continent can become harpists.

Elves, centaurs, humans, even centaurs, dwarves, and other highly intelligent forest races. The first three are the majority of harpists, most of whom are bards or rangers. Of course, there are other professions.

The harpsichord is a loosely structured, secret organization that has never heard of a clear leader and a complex mix of people. Most harpists hide their identities and only attack at critical points in the situation. After completing their mission, they immediately retreat.

Because harpists do not pursue fame and fortune, they act solely on the ideals and righteousness in their hearts, making it difficult for the organization to define its agenda and objectives accurately.

The only thing that is clear is that the harpists believe their mission is to maintain the balance of the world and to disrupt the schemes of evil organizations. This also made them a complete mortal enemy of Santalin. Most of the time, the two organizations were tit-for-tat and did not back down.

Hearing Elistine’s introduction to the Santalin Society, Qin Lun quickly understood why this evil organization was targeting the Japanese Fairy Envoy Group. The Comanso Forest borders the Sea of the Moon on its south bank. The Komanzo Fairy was the Santalin Society’s biggest geopolitical opponent, and many harpists were born in Komanzo.

The trade routes that Santalin would struggle to control fell from the Moon Hainan Sea to the Starsea, Weihong Sea, through the Naga and Alan Rivers to the Lake of Steam, from the south of the main road to the port of Karin, and then traveled north along the trade kilometers of Sword Bay to Deepwater City. This horseshoe-shaped golden trade route was equivalent to the migration of ancient elves.

The migration route of the Japanese elves would inevitably bring unrest to this golden trade route, causing Santalin’s control over this area to decline, affecting their most fundamental foundation. No wonder the organization had tried its best to surround and intercept the Japanese elf envoys.

In fact, the long march of the Japanese elves would affect more than one organization. Along the way, the large business alliances, churches, and large organizations of the various human kingdoms would inevitably be greatly affected.

For example, the Seven Suns Chamber of Commerce in Karinshan, the Red-robed Mages’ Association in Amm and Tyser, the Iron Throne in Bird Gate, the 16-member Council of Lords in Deepwater City, and the churches in Ambry, Timora, Goethe, Ilmart, Omar, etc. that relied on commercial ports and towns.

The regions where these organizations and alliances took root encompassed all the human kingdoms in the west and south of the continent, accounting for three-quarters of Ferren’s essence and more than 85% of its population. Including the other elven courts that were unwilling to see the sun elves succeed, the Komanso elves were enemies of almost the entire continent.

In the history of Phelan, without the participation of the apostles, the Japanese elves had returned to the Ancient Era, allowing them to once again become leaders of the Fairy race in terms of jurisprudence and prestige since Irivada. Coupled with Eternal Assembly Island’s special geographical location, the reconstructed Sun Palace had essentially become the spiritual pillar of the entire Fairy Feilun.

Unfortunately, due to the butterfly effect of a certain murderer, the future Glorious Moon Fairy Court had to a large extent suppressed the Sun King Court, becoming the new political center of the Fairy Ferren. The ongoing migration of the Sun Fairy had already lost its greatest achievement before it could succeed. It had also caused the meticulous plans of the Fairy God King, Corellon Larisan, to be nullified. In the end, the Fairy God Realm was split into two camps.

…

After Elistine left, Qin Lun pondered for a while, then took out the sacrificial gloves from his storage space and put them on his left hand. After this lesson, he didn’t dare to exaggerate. Even if he needed to conceal his identity, the sacrificial gloves that could instantaneously cast three Tier 6 spells had to be in his hands at all times.

Even though he had only talked to Elistine for a while, Qin Lun still felt a splitting headache, and a line of blood and tears fell from his swollen right eye that was as swollen as a walnut. The use of such a large skill as the [Star Black Hole] wasn’t just a matter of energy consumption, it also seemed to involve some sort of energy data that hadn’t yet been set up on the death list.

Judging from the current reaction of the body, this kind of strength has a certain relationship with the spirit will, vitality and soul. Qin Lun had a splitting headache, and it was very difficult for him to concentrate. It was obvious that he had consumed too much spiritual energy. In addition, his HP had never recovered to its optimal state, and even his Longevity Soul had consumed 37 points.

In this state, Qin Lun had no choice but to give up thinking and fall asleep in the tent.
