Chapter 263: Chapter 226 News of the Black Fire Brothers

"What? Are you sure?" Lind’s voice suddenly rose.

He thought it would be a long time before he received news of that powerful group.

The magnificent and powerful figure he had once seen and the diary he obtained in the Sun Church of Prey Town made Lind’s heart start to beat uncontrollably fast.

He found it difficult to control his heartbeat.

"The Songbai Knight Guard from Permafrost Land," Doris said, "Lord Armand, please remember, I frequent the Royal Palace just as often as you do, and I have personally participated in pilgrimages."

She was somewhat surprised by Lind’s reaction.

"I’m sorry," Lind calmed himself, "I was just a bit too excited. I thought you would understand how much a Sun Knight yearns for the Songbai Knight Guard."

"But I didn’t hear yearning in your tone."

Yes, of course there was no yearning, because Lind desperately wanted to capture the other party, treating them as his prey.

The owner of that diary, the Songbai Knight Clorey from Permafrost Land, was also part of the Songbai Knight Guard.

Living in Permafrost Land, said to be the place closest to the Divine Realm, they had wings on their back, like angels.

As "angels," might they possess more advanced methods to create Magic Potions?

Lind shook his head inwardly, impossible, because Clorey had written in his diary that the Songbai Knight Guard of Permafrost Land were blessed by the gods and granted powers.

Only Clorey himself escalated his powers in a "heretical" manner, by hunting the Abyssal Calamity and concocting Magic Potions with the Heart of Calamity.

This was ultimately good news; perhaps there was some connection among the Songbai Knight Guard, and Lind could find relevant information about Clorey!

Better than buzzing around aimlessly like a headless fly.

The good news also came with bad news, the Songbai Knight Guard, but the other party belonged to the New Nobility forces.

This meant that Lind’s plan, which had been speeding along unchecked, would now be influenced, and he had even planned to depend on the "triple rings" Flying Dragon to steamroll everything.

The Flying Dragon Alex might seem a little insufficient in the face of Songbai Knight Guard, and it was definitely wise not to let Alex fly directly here.

Otherwise, it would be hard to ensure that an angel with wings wouldn’t suddenly appear in the sky, slaying the dragon with a single sword.

The NPCs here are a bit too strong, and someone like me, a small monster with a red name, might not survive, so I must restrain myself.

And there must already be a portion of the Undead choosing to follow Raven City; his plan to monopolize the Undead wouldn’t go so smoothly.

If there wasn’t a system’s forceful requirement, the Undead would absolutely not all choose the same faction, no matter how good the benefits are because some people like suffering, while others prefer niche roles for all sorts of reasons.

He must prepare well regarding this point; developing the central region might be more difficult than he imagined.

"I’m very curious about what you will encounter next," Lind quickly said, "And you’re right, I really do need a Recorder Officer by my side!"

I can employ you, tell me what you know quickly!

"I don’t know much about Raven City, but I would advise you not to show up near Raven City because they aren’t exactly friendly to your kind of noble."

Not exactly friendly, could this be considered good news?

At least they aren’t trying to kill me on sight.

"The power structures there are very complex, beyond my reach," Doris continued, "Oh, and perhaps you’d be interested in knowing that Queen Rania is currently residing in the domain of Lord Baya."

"I’m not interested in that Lord Baya."

Neither in Queen Rania, he added in his mind.

Right now, his mind was entirely focused on the Songbai Knight Guard of Permafrost Land.

"Is that so?" Doris nodded lightly, unsure what she was thinking, "Aren’t you here in Goliath to save the Rand Kingdom?"

I’m here for the Brothers of Black Fire!

"I was checking to see if anyone in the house was still breathing!"

"I did it for my fiancée, for the Grand Prince, and now even for the Gobai Knight Guard."

"But I am just not interested in the Queen."

"Unless one day the Undead lack a BOSS to chop down, he might sneakily feed the Queen a Magic Potion and throw her out... With that thought, Lind suddenly became very interested."

"The Queen is a strategic nuclear weapon!"

"According to the theory of lineage, Baron Ronan could turn into a giant serpent, and Prince Cote completely controlled Goliath, preventing the New Nobility from breaking through."

"So Queen Rania should not be bad either."

"The only problem is whether the Queen will lose her sanity after becoming a BOSS; if she retains her rationality like Baron Ronan, it would be troublesome. With that woman’s character, she would surely come to kill me first."

"Of course!" Lind said righteously, "I came back to save the Rand Kingdom!"

"Saving the Rand Kingdom, but not necessarily the Queen."

Doris nodded in agreement; she wouldn’t doubt a Noble’s determination to restore the order of the Kingdom because from all aspects, it seemed like the most profitable plan."

"What about you? Why don’t you join the Queen?" Lind asked, "You already know where she is, wouldn’t it be easier to find her?"

"My lord, I am just a Recorder Officer," Doris said, "I don’t have the strength to travel such a long distance, I would die."

The topic of the Queen ended there; Lind was very satisfied with their conversation this time, as he had gained enough information."

"Including the rough location of Raven City now, knowing its position makes it easier for him to avoid them."

"Moreover, Raven City had nine ’Newbie Villages,’ and Emerald Hill was one of them. Raven City had always been laissez-faire towards these villages, giving Lind plenty of room to maneuver."

"But as Doris mentioned, not every one of them is a ’Newbie Village’; they just belong to the influence of Raven City.

"Doris very considerately gave him a hand-drawn map; for her, these were no secrets, as she was very good at compiling and integrating data."

"Lind looked at the rough map. Although Doris’s data compiling skills were strong, she really should learn to draw."

"The other eight are: Aiwenvo, Red Mushroom Village, Newmoon Town, Windmill Village, Black Hoof Village, Beehive Cottages, Clan of Foxes, and Dark Night Orchard."

"They seemed like various bright, enticing fruits, beckoning to Lind."

"If he could quietly take down nine newbie villages, how would Raven City respond then?"

"The premise was still finding the Blackfire brothers."

"Lind felt it was hard to hide his real thoughts in front of Doris, so he directly inquired about the Blackfire brothers."

"The Blackfire brothers?" Doris said, "They are in the Dark Night Orchard."

"Dark Night Orchard, one of the nine Newbie Villages under Raven City."

Seeing Lind’s surprised expression, Doris said, "My lord, powerful beings are very rare on this land, and no one wants to remain unknown."

"Lind suddenly realized; it was only recently that he had the illusion that there were many strong beings due to the gradual mass production."

"True, the Calamity was indeed the real force."

"Neither the Old Nobility nor the New Nobility were anything but struggling to survive the apocalypse."

"I assume you don’t have information on Dark Night Orchard," Lind said.

"My lord, of course, I don’t," Doris replied, "But I know the Blackfire brothers; the place isn’t open to the public, and they don’t share what they are researching."

"I will solve your doubts soon," Lind said.

Because he couldn’t wait either.
