"We just left like this, what should we do with the heart of the thunderbird? Is that little girl still waiting for it to help?" Rantoya's words made several companions who had just escaped from the black forest stop.

"Are you crazy? The night elves have recently begun to expand to the ground. This black forest is their territory. They may encounter patrolling elves brigades at any time. Now they have finally come out and I will not go in again." He took out a bag of Holucy silver coins (Mingsu Empire currency) from his arms and threw them on the ground. The thief ran away without looking back.

"Paan, be honest, is it related to the person just now, that Moya-Fasi?!" Eruson was not stupid either. He had a little observation and consideration and knew that the abnormality of the three locals must be related to the female fugitive.

The orc seemed extremely uneasy. He kept looking around, but refused to tell the reason.

"Ralph?"

Since Paan refused to say it, he could only count on the dwarf to inform him.

The dwarf sighed and looked back at the dark forest not far behind him, which was still gloomy under the sun; "It is not suitable to talk about this topic here, let's go back."

"Okay. Lantoya, we can come back in a few days. At present, the most important thing is to find out Moya Fassi's true identity first." Lantoya, who was slightly worried about the little girl's condition, led her teammates back to Merri City. The bartenders in the Forest Bar should know some inside information.

"Hey, why are you back so soon this time?" At noon, Nick, who had just had lunch, unexpectedly found that several little nobles were back again. This is rare. Because of the lack of common sense in adventure, they often go out toss for ten days and half a month before returning.

However, everyone in the mercenary group nodded politely and then found a table against the wall to sit down.

"Say it, Ralph, tell us everything you know."

"..." The dwarf just stared at his big red beard in silence without saying a word.

"Ralph!!"

"It's not that I don't want to say it, but that these have nothing to do with you. If you still want to go around Luso, you'd better not to find out about that person."

"What does this mean? Make it clear!!" Eruson was a little unhappy. Even though he was the best-tempered one among the people, he still had the arrogance of some nobles. He heard the dwarfs' words clearly resisting their aristocratic status, and he, who had always been a peacemaker, could no longer help him.

"Oh, don't be excited. If he doesn't want to tell you, please ask me? Tabis is willing to serve you, respected sir. As long as you are willing to pay a little consultation fee, you can get the answer you want." A fat man dressed like a merchant on the next table heard the dispute between Eruson and Ralph, and slipped to Eruson at a speed that his figure would never have.

"Okay, tell me your price."

Seeing Ralph's expression still had a firm expression, Eruson had to find another way.

"Haha...Tabis's charges are very reasonable. Ordinary gossip, ten secrets of the Holus Luso region and various hunting grounds, one hundred secrets of the Holus, the nobles of the princes and merchants, ten Knolls. Absolute secrets, one hundred Knolls. What do you want to know about?"

"The Secret of Luso." Take out half of the 100 Holus silver coins that were originally intended to be given to the thief and handed them to the intelligence merchant; "I want to know what the Dark Night Rose is?"

"Oh...this..." Tabis's signature smile was stiffened for a while before he recovered. He looked around nervously, and after confirming safety, he leaned into Eruson's ear and whispered; "I'd like to ask, do you have any quarrels or friction with them?"

"They? No, no. I just heard a lot of people mention it, and I want to ask. You also know that it is better for outsiders to learn more about some of Luso's secrets. This place is really not very safe."

"Well... that's good." After listening to Eruson's explanation, Tabis took a chair with confidence to sit down; "The Dark Night Rose actually refers to the Night Elf, but we all call them black elves. The Silent Forest was renamed Black Forest because it was in the area of ​​the Night Elf. Because the national emblem of the Night Elf Kingdom thousands of years ago was a white rose, they have continued the custom of using white roses as a heraldry. Since it is a unique symbol of the Night Elf, the white rose that only blooms on moonlit nights is also called the Dark Night Rose."

"So that's it... Then, let's ask again, what does the number of white roses mean?" Looking back on the mysterious man eight months ago, there were seven roses on his chest, but the Moya-Fasi we saw today only has one rose, and the two also have the distinction between budding and blooming. What does it mean?

"Oh, you've seen different night elves. Actually, there are night elves in this city, but few people can leave alive after seeing them." After a slashing posture, Tabis continued to tell the information he knew; "The hierarchy of night elves is very strict, and their ranks can be distinguished from the number and style of the heralds. I wonder what the heralds you have seen are?"

"Well... I saw a man with seven white roses in this bar eight months ago. He should be an elf, right?"

"Yes, the number of dark night roses represents the family they belong to. One to nine represent the members of the nine major families belonging to the Night Capital. Anyone outside the nine major families will be represented by ten roses. The seven roses you see are the seventh family, Ludwigsey, which is especially famous for making gold and silver utensils and textiles. Their utensils can be bought (sold) to a very high price in several nearby countries, which is the final sale at the auction. It is precisely because of this that the night elves of the seventh family will often come to Merri, and humans have more knowledge of them than the other families." As he said, Tabis took over the other fifty Holus silver coins handed over by Eruson.

"Strange, since the number represents the family, what is the difference between budding stamens and blooming stamens?" There should be a difference, such as men or women, or their status within the clan. Since the female fugitive said that she is the same clan as the Paladin, then... is that the Paladin is also a night elves? How is this possible? How could there be a night elves in the light camp?!

"Have you seen the blooming dark night rose?!" Tabis stood up, staring straight at Eruson, his face full of disbelief.

"I saw one this morning in the Black Forest. What's so strange?" Seeing that the intelligence merchant's reaction was a little strange, Eruson asked back.

"Of course it's strange. Civilians and slaves are all budding rose emblems. Only high-ranking people like the patriarch and priests can enjoy the qualification to bloom rose emblems!! You have met a high-level night elves. There are at least thousands of guards of this type of night elves. You can actually leave the black forest safely. This is simply impossible." The intelligence merchant suddenly remembered something, and he suddenly stood up and grabbed the door, leaving only a few mercenaries with mist.

"Eruson, what's wrong with him?" Sue was puzzled. Why did he say it well and why he ran away all of a sudden.

"That female prisoner... is a high-level night elf... It's a troublesome thing. Hasn't she asked us about Merry's garrison? Didn't it?" Eruson also stood up from the chair and pushed open the bar door; "Go away quickly, we have to tell the city lord to go, this time it was definitely an attack on Merry."

"Why are you a few more? Go! Go! Go! The city lord has no time to see you now. He is discussing a deal with the VIP." Eruson and others who went to ask for their meeting were blocked at the gate again. The guard captain Leo heard the guard's report and came out and found that it was the novice mercenary group that was noisy in the castle a month ago.

"Captain of Guard, please! We have important matters to report to the city lord!!"

"I told you that the city lord is now meeting the VIPs and has no time to meet you yellow-haired boys."

"Sui, let's rush in!" When he thought that the female prisoner might gather a large number of night elves to attack Meli, Eruson, who had a sense of justice, did not care about the serious consequences of trespassing into the castle where the city lord was located.

"Guards, stop them!!" Seeing that the momentum was wrong, Leo immediately opened his throat to summon the guards in the castle. Unfortunately, the young man had already rushed into the gate, and the two symbolic guards could not stop them from moving forward.

"bump!!"

The solid wood door was kicked open by the orcs and Sue, and several people sitting in the hall stopped their conversation due to this rough move.

"What do you want to do?!"

The city lord Reis watched in surprise as several mercenaries holding weapons broke into his residence and recognized them as the novice mercenaries who had been here a month ago.

"Master Lord, we have something very urgent to say to you this time...How come you are here!!!" Before Eruson finished speaking, he saw that the so-called VIP talking to the city lord was Moya Fassi who was coming to report. The cold-looking blonde paladin was still sitting beside her.

"Ah, we're meeting again, everyone from the noble mercenary group." Raising the exquisite crystal cup in his hand, the female fugitive greeted the surprise Free Wanderer Mercenary Group. The bad smile on her face showed that she seemed to have expected the mercenary group to come.

"It's so slow. I've been waiting for you here for a long time. I've just arrived now. My evaluation of you has dropped a little, but... as long as it doesn't affect my plan, it doesn't matter if you are stupid. Is it, Lord Reis?"
