Chapter 769: The Unveiling Of The Conspiracy

Chapter 769: The Unveiling Of The Conspiracy


After the elven soldiers brought the Caradia soldiers out, they returned to the volcano and escaped from the cave with the dwarven craftsmen. Because the elven soldiers were more than twice the size of the dwarfs, each elven soldier carried a dwarf in each hand in order to save time.


"I"ll take the chief and Vivian away." Abel told Devitt and Claremont.


"Okay, then I"ll leave them to you." Devitt replied. Then, he held the hand of the elven soldiers who were floating in the air.


The buildings in the volcano had been destroyed by the shockwave. Abel looked around and found that most of the people had left safely. He raised his right hand and called for all the elven soldiers in the volcano to gather. Then, he led the last group of people and rushed out.


They landed safely on the green gra.s.s on the surface of the volcano.


Devitt walked to the dwarf clan chief, who was still in a state of shock, and said, "Chief, if you need any help from us, please feel free to ask."


The clan chief stood where he was and thought for a while. Then, he said, "There"s no need to trouble you. Thank you, humans and elves, for saving our tribe."


"You"re welcome." Devitt shook his head and said, "Then, may I ask what your plan is?"


"Of course, we"ll find Klidoff for a clear explanation." the chief said angrily, "He failed to keep the agreement with the dwarfs. We"ll have to find him to clarify the reason behind it."


"Mm." Devitt nodded. Their mission had come to an end here.


"If there"s nothing we can do, we"ll take our leave." Abel said politely. "I hope you all can have a smooth journey."


"Thank you." the dwarf clan chief nodded.


"Chief! Vivian is gone!" A dwarf ran to the clan chief and shouted.


"What happened?" clan chief immediately became nervous and asked anxiously.


"Just now, she said she wanted to drink water, so I took her to the freshwater pool nearby. After that, when I was fetching water by the pool, she disappeared. I searched around the freshwater pool for a long time, but I couldn"t find her." the dwarf soldier reported.


"How careless!" the dwarf clan chief stomped his feet and said angrily.


"Since she just gone, she shouldn"t have gone too far with her little feet. Quickly send people to search in batches. Our people might be able to help." Devitt suggested.


"Thank you very much." the chief nodded and said.


Hundreds of dwarfs and soldiers of the reconnaissance team surrounded the freshwater pool on the volcano and began to search.


It was almost dark now, so they couldn"t search for long. When they gathered again, they had not found Vivian.


Seeing the worry on the faces of the dwarfs, Devitt pursed his lips, but there was still no clue in his mind.


"Why don"t we go down the mountain and rest first? We can go up the mountain and search again tomorrow at dawn." a dwarf craftsman suggested to the old chief.


"... That"s the only way." the old chief compromised.


Although he really wanted to find his niece, he still couldn"t drag all the dwarfs who were only wearing thin pajamas to spend the night on this winter mountain.


"Our teleportation array is almost here." Claremont said, "Everyone, follow us down the mountain. I reckon that once you reach the foot of the mountain, the rumors will fall apart."


"Mm, thank you." The chief agreed to Claremont"s suggestion. The group of people went down the mountain.


Just as Claremont said, when the mages who were operating the magic array saw the dwarves appear in front of them, their faces instantly turned pale.


On the way out of the teleportation array, there were many wanderers who approached the dwarfs to talk to them and ask them the truth about the disappearance.


After hearing the story of the dwarfs being deceived by Klidoff, everyone put on an incredulous expression.


However, most of them still chose to believe the truth that the dwarfs had told them.


After all, they knew the dwarfs would not lie.


The reconnaissance team chose to stay in a hotel near the center of the city.


When dawn came the next day, the dispute between Klidoff and the dwarfs spread throughout the town and even spread to other parts of the volcano.


Some people said that Klidoff, who sat at the desk of his law enforcement officer every day at eight o"clock, did not show up at the law enforcement building today.


After the dwarfs gathered the citizens and explained the truth. They applied for military support from the volcano administration to help them go up the mountain to search for Vivian.


In this way, Devitt and the others were completely idle.


Devitt"s plan was to leave immediately, but Claremont and Abel both requested that they stay for one more day to see how the current situation developed.


After the soldiers were on vacation, they all walked out of the inn and strolled on the streets.


Devitt and the other two didn"t have the mood to relax. They found a nearby teahouse and sat in a private room to drink tea.


"Tell me, what can we see if we stay here for one more day?" Devitt sighed and asked.


"Actually, we just want to stay here for one more day." Claremont shook his head and said, "To adjust the soldiers" status. What can we see? It depends on how quickly the situation on this island changes."


"Hehe." Abel laughed when he heard Claremont. After Claremont glared at him, he immediately restrained his expression.


"I heard that the dragon clan sent representatives to partic.i.p.ate in this morning"s gathering to support the dwarf clan." Claremont told him the news that the hotel attendant had revealed.


"The dragon clan? They woke up?" Devitt was somewhat surprised.


"Yes." Claremont nodded. "They are calmer than expected."


"This island has at least a few hundred years of history. There have been many people who wanted to stir up trouble. How could the dragon clan be so frightened by this matter?" Abel took a sip of tea and said.


"That"s true." Claremont nodded, he said, "But this time, the people behind the scenes will be in big trouble. The dragon clan"s military power, the gnome"s strategy, the dwarf"s artillery, the goblin"s network. These superimposed powers are unimaginable."


"So... shouldn"t we leave earlier?" Devitt frowned.


Claremont coughed. "That"s all you thought of?!"


"What else can I think of? If the various races on this island suddenly start fighting, where would we find a place to stay?" Devitt said with a laugh.


"No, we can still bring some fresh information back with us." Claremont insisted, "If these races really want to use force, we have to wait for everyone to arrive.. We haven"t even figured out who"s behind this yet."
