Pasha stared at the purple and colorful starry sky. Under the starry sky was the vast expanse of land, which was silvery white as far as the eye could see. The moonlight cast a cold silvery glow on the sea of ​​​​sand, and this ancient desert got its name.

Under the western sky is the city Idos, as the Stanians have called it for a long time. After crossing the vast silver sand desert, the first thing the merchants saw was Idos.

The red wall is like a lighthouse above the sea of ​​sand.

Hence the name ‘Red Sand Cliff’, which is what Idos means in Istanian.

But that was already a hundred years ago. Today, the city has long been turned into ruins under the attack of wind and sand, with broken walls and ruins, and gradually turned into gravel. After about eight o'clock, groups of fires lit up in the ruins.

, still clearly visible in the direction of the cliff.

Pasha saw a few stars flying in from the west. The eyesight of Istanians is generally different from ordinary people. The stars became bigger and bigger, and finally turned into a few rays of golden light, one by one falling into the gentle, young leader.

In the hands of adults.

"How is it?" he heard the chubby warrior carrying a shield ask the other party.

"There are layers of defenses inside, and there are several places that are defended by highly skilled magicians. Even I, the Clockwork Fairy, can't easily enter. There are more Blood Shark Air Pirates than we thought, but I haven't seen the Dragon Fire Guild for the time being.

"I don't know if the Dragon Worshipers are also inside," Fang Plover turned around and replied to Luo Hao and Red, who had accompanied him: "But those people didn't lie to us. The Blood Shark Pirates did indeed discover something in the city."

Things, those few bright spots are where they forced hard workers to dig overnight. But those places are tightly guarded, and I can only take a look from a distance..."

"What's going on in the middle of the square?"

Fang Yu shook his head: "The direction to the center of the square is too far, even my clockwork fairy can't fly there, and there is no firelight there, it's pitch black."

"So what do you think will be there, Eddard?" the big catman asked suddenly, "Nicol Bolas?"

Fang Yu thought for a moment and nodded. He indeed thought so. If there were any changes in Idos after the Van Ricker incident half a month ago, and the Blood Shark Air Pirates needed to block the news, then the only way

The only possibility seems to be the injured Nicol Bolas.

"Shortly after Vanrick's accident, changes took place there. From a timing perspective, it may be just right," the big cat man smacked his lips: "But the truth is often hidden under the surface, Ed."

"Mr. Reid, what do you mean by that?"

"On the surface, you are worshipers of the Dragon Cult and Nicol Bolas, but is this really what you saw in Dolifin? Doesn't it seem to be the case, Eddard?"

Fang Plover couldn't help but be startled.

"Sir Dict told me something," Red continued: "When you first saw Nicol Bolas in the square in the illusion, the Dragon Cult commanded him with the Ring of Golden Flame."

"But the ring of golden flames is fake."

"Yes, it was false, so Nicol Bolas immediately became furious and killed him. This is not like the relationship between a worshiper and the worshiped, Eddard." The big cat man narrowed his eyes.

"But it may also be because Nicol Bolas has a part of Ms. Misu's soul. At the end of Dolifen's fantasy..."

"But that's Nicol Bolas too. If she was suspicious of the Dragon Cult, how could she go to find them while she was seriously injured?"

Fang Yu was silent for a moment. He did feel the conflict between the Dragon Cult and Nicol Bolas.

Dragon Cults conspired everywhere to revive the dark dragon to its former glory, but Nicol Bolas seemed somewhat dismissive of his followers.

It neither actively contacted nor cooperated with its followers. The Dragon Cultists must have known that the injured Nicol Bolas had been dormant in Travelers Swamp, but before that it had never appeared in front of its followers.

Even after the conspiracy of the Dragon Cult at Traveler's Rest, the first thing Nicol Bolas did when he regained the power of the dragon horn was to take revenge on the nearest humans with full fury:

A fire burned Charter City

But while this put everyone in danger, it also made most of the knowledgeable people in Corin-Ithurion understand: the Dragon Witch is back again.

Fang Yu carefully asked Hongye about the details of the siege of Charter City. In fact, there was only one direct result of the destruction of Charter City, which made Kaolin-Ithulian react quickly and caused the armies of humans and dwarves to gather in the north.

Moreover, the Elpaxin Craftsmen Association also found Mazak, the successor of another group of dragon slayers. After all, today is no longer the time of the giant war, and a dark dragon can overwhelm the entire human world.

time to come.

Although Moa no longer exists among the five dragon-slaying holy swords, at least three of them and their heirs are still alive.

Among them was Galatea, who had wounded it once.

Not to mention that there are still selectors. Hongye and the others were selected by the military to join that battle. The military promised to give each participating guild a quota to enter the second world, which was enough for most guilds to join.

And in fighting against the dark dragon, the military has every reason to end it personally.

In the face of these gathered forces, the power of the Dragon Worshipers on the surface is not worth mentioning at all. What's more, this incident even allowed the prime minister's party to temporarily relax the pressure on the south, which brought a temporary calm to the south.

under the condition.

It can be said that Nicol Bolas severely cheated his followers.

In fact, if it understood the Dragon Worship Cult's painstaking efforts, it should first lie dormant and downplay the impact of the Traveler's Rest incident.

He then cooperated with the Dragon Worshipers to get back most of the power of his Dragon's Golden Eyes in Dolifen. Instead of letting this part of the power fall into Fang Plover's hands, he now became Nini.

But it does neither.

Nicol Bolas's performance was far different from the cunning and cunning 'Dragon Witch' in Fang Plover's impression.

The duchess, who went by the pseudonym Elte, controlled King Kaolin for ten years with the cooperation of the higher-ups of the Dragon Worship Cult.

In the end, it was only through the joint efforts of Shujod and Karatu that his true identity was revealed, and he was ultimately defeated in the Ashes Mountain Forest.

But Fang Yu suddenly remembered something. Nicol Bolas seemed to have a criminal record.

He raised his head and looked at the ruins of the city under the cliff in the distance.

Idos, that was Nicol Bolas's first masterpiece. The first time she transformed into a dragon, she completely destroyed the city, and even the Dragon Country where she was born.

After that, she disappeared until her incarnation as a duchess was discovered. It was a twelve-year dark period in Corrin-Ithurion, but not many people understand this history today.

The furious Nicol Bolas or the cunning Dragon Witch, which one is the real one?

Among the Nicol Bolas he has seen, it seems that the first form is more numerous. He has also seen another form of it, which may be Lady Misu.

But behind Ms. Misu's figure, is there another Nicol Bolas?

He subconsciously thought of the fragmented scenes he had seen in the illusion, those noisy arguments that seemed like hallucinations.

He took a breath and came back to his senses. There were too many mysteries about Nicol Bolas, but there were also many about the Dragon Cult.

About the Dragon Fire Guild, about the Star Gate itself, and the Blood Shark Pirates in front of me.

As well as the purpose of their wishful thinking, and what role the other Toragoth played in it, is it really dead?

There is also Luo Lin, the mysterious Chosen One who disappeared completely after the Van Rick incident.

Lin En said that the other party was a good person, and Lin En also asked him to rescue him from the Dragon Worship Cult if he had a chance.

But why would he save a good person, and why would he join the Dragon Cult? The other party would not be unaware of how many innocent people died in the Van Rick incident.

Lin En didn't think clearly about the relationship, but he saw it clearly.

Finally, there is the matter about Du Lun. They still haven't figured out whether Enan's brother is real or fake. The other party seems to have no abnormal behavior so far.

In this attack, the other party neither participated nor played any role, acting like an outsider. But being an outsider makes people even more confused.

The scene in the snow and wind at that time cannot be said to be Sophie's hallucination. What's more, Attila and Tianlan also encountered the same hallucination.

As for the owner of that armor, Sir Dict has found out that he is the cousin of the great wizard Karatu a hundred years ago and a good friend of the dragon-slaying hero Xjod.

As for the identity of the other party in this conspiracy, it is still a mystery so far.

So many puzzles are brought together here, and their only connection seems to be only one Dragon Witch.

What exactly happened a hundred years ago, or was it just as simple as what was recorded in official records? The deeper he went, the more foggy Fang Yu felt.

As for the truth hidden in the fog, the more he pursued it, the more confused he became.

Thinking of that armor, Fang Plover thought of Sir Dict. From the confessions of the air pirates, they seemed to have never heard of such a person. But calculating the time, Dict should have arrived in Idos much earlier than them. As for the

Where the other party is at this moment is still a mystery.

"Indeed," Fang Plover nodded: "Actually, I also have some doubts in my heart. If Nicol Bolas really came to Idos, the people in the Elfendor Council would not be unaware of it."

But he added: "It's just that if it weren't for Nicol Bolas, I really can't imagine what would be there."

After hearing this, Rhett said: "You'll know if you go and see it yourself."

After hearing this, Fang Plover looked at the lion man in surprise.

Rhett noticed his gaze and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Did Mr. Reid notice something?"

"That's not true," Rhett smiled smartly: "It's just that sometimes when the information is not enough to support your judgment, you might as well get closer."

"What Mr. Reid means is that we go into the city to have a look?" This coincided with Fang Pliong's own thoughts.

The lion man nodded: "And I haven't seen that person for many years, so I wanted to confirm something by the way."

Fang Yu couldn't help but was startled, looked at the former and asked: "If Mr. Reid meets that person..."

"Don't worry, Ed," the lion man narrowed his silver eyes, "I will give priority to obeying the team's arrangements."

"No, that's not what I meant," Fang Plover shook his head, "I'm just curious."

"Curious?" Rhett said with a smile: "Actually, there is nothing to be curious about. It's just an old-fashioned betrayer story. But actually, I don't care much about whether he is a betrayer. It's just that I need an answer to some questions.

"

He looked at Fang Plover: "Do you understand, little guy?"
