Chapter 398: Diary Clues, Ready to Pursue

After dealing with David, Vincent strode up the city wall. Dave was standing by the city wall, sizing up the miserable David.

Without waiting for Vincent to walk up to him, Dave turned his head and said to him, “You beat him so badly. If I want to settle the grudge with him again, how long will I have to wait?”

Vincent said indifferently, “What’s there to be afraid of? Take advantage of his illness and take his life! You can go and settle the score with him now!”

Dave shook his head and said seriously, “That would be too boring! Didn’t he always think that I’m trash? I’ll wait until he returns to his peak condition and defeat him fair and square. I’ll let him know who the real trash is!”

Vincent was not surprised. He nodded and said, “From today onward, weapons like knives can appear openly in Devil Flame City. Later, you can send someone to summon Rooney back from the riverside mansion to start building a batch of knives. Start equipping the guards at the North Gate with knives! If you want to change everyone’s beliefs in the dark, you have to start by changing the power that they rely on!”

Dave nodded his head without much interest and agreed with Vincent’s suggestion. He then asked with a worried face, “Now that my father has disappeared without a trace, you said that you have a plan to find traces of him. What exactly is the plan?”

Vincent smiled and patted Dave’s shoulder. He pulled him to the side of the city wall and said in a low voice, “Actually, it’s very easy to determine your father’s whereabouts. Wherever there is Origin Divine Earth, he will be there!”

Dave said unhappily, “You’re right! But we don’t know where the Origin Divine Earth is. Do you want me to send people around to gather information about the Origin Divine Earth? By the time we really find it, I’m afraid that my father will have already completed his mission!”

Vincent smiled and shook his head. He replied, “You’re right, but you’re not completely right!”

Dave looked at Vincent in surprise. He was worried about the safety of Elf World, so he naturally could not calm down to think carefully. After hearing what Vincent had said, he could not help but lower his head and think for a while. However, no matter how he thought about it, he did not know where he went wrong.

Dave had no choice but to ask Vincent, “What did I say that was wrong?”

Vincent said softly, “You said that we do not know where the Origin Divine Earth is. This is very true! But have you ever thought that Andre may not know the exact whereabouts of the Origin Divine Earth either? Based on the identity of the twelve apostles, we can reasonably guess that the other apostles have the same statuses as Andre. Therefore, the Origin Divine Earth in their territory is their private resource. It is the treasure that they use to curry favor with Gajero. Therefore, these individuals will definitely not share it with Andre. It seems that Andre would never make enemies with the apostles who are as famous as him unless he had no other choice. Therefore, Andre would definitely search for the Origin Divine Earth outside of the territory of the other apostles, especially in the area around Devil Flame City. However, the demons have ruled the Elf Race for so many years. I believe that every city lord is sparing no effort in collecting the Origin Divine Earth for the demons. As for those city lords who have not become apostles, it would be very difficult to find traces of the Origin Divine Earth within their jurisdiction, Therefore, there is only one place that Andre can go!”

After listening to Vincent’s deduction, Dave could not help but nod his head. However, when he heard Vincent firmly saying that Andre only had one place to go, he could not help but be startled. It seemed that Vincent must have some other information, and it was something that he did not know!

“Where will he go?” asked Dave.

Vincent did not answer Dave’s question. Instead, he told Dave about the relevant content in Jacob’s diary.

After hearing that Andre had been stealing the Origin Divine Earth since 20 years ago, Dave’s fingers that were pressed on the city wall could not help but turn pale due to the force.

“So, from that time on, he had already betrayed the elves. No wonder he went from a nobody to the City Lord of Devil Flame City in one night. Moreover, he stood firm for 20 years and even became an apostle of the Demon World! In other words, under extreme circumstances, it is very likely that he will return to the place where he went 20 years ago. He will be looking for a way to collect the Origin Divine Earth there!” said Dave coldly.

Vincent nodded and said, “That’s right! According to the records in Jacob’s diary, the place that they went to 20 years ago was filled with dangers. Logically speaking, Andre should have no chance of survival. However, he actually came back alive and became the City Lord of Devil Flame City. This meant that Andre must have found another exit and even successfully obtained the Origin Divine Earth! Unfortunately, Jacob didn’t tell us exactly where they went in the diary. Now we just have to see if Avril and the others can find some clues from the diary. Once we confirm the location of the dispute between Jacob and Andre, I can rush over immediately. Maybe I can even get there before Andre!”

Dave sighed with some worry, “Your arrangements are really good, but I’m still worried that we won’t be able to stop him in time!”

Vincent shook his head gently and said, “Don’t worry. The elf prophecy says that when the last drop of the Origin Divine Earth dries up, the Elf Race will walk toward extinction. Now that the entrance to Hell’s Rose has collapsed, we can at least guarantee that the Origin Divine Earth beneath Devil Flame City will not be stolen again. As long as we defend Devil Flame City, it’s equivalent to defending the last hope of the Elf Race. Even if we can’t find Andre’s whereabouts at the end, when he returns to Devil Flame City, it will be time for the final battle. I guarantee that we won’t let Andre continue to do evil things!”

Dave finally relaxed after hearing that. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he suddenly noticed that the city wall in front of him was rippling like water. Following that, a creature’s head emerged from the center of the ripples.

“Master! Junior!”

The head that popped out from the city wall immediately greeted Dave and Vincent with a smile as soon as he saw them.

Dave was frightened by the sudden change and retreated in a hurry. Meanwhile, Vincent only turned his head indifferently and saw that the head that popped out from within the city wall was Ebenezer!

Vincent said calmly, “Kid, can you appear in a more normal manner? Next time, I’ll directly draw my sword! You’ll have to be careful.”

Ebenezer smiled disapprovingly and said, “I’m in a hurry to see you, master. Your two lovers have already found some clues from Jacob’s diary, so they sent me to inform you!”

“Oh?”

Vincent walked forward with a curious look and said to Ebenezer, “There’s no one else here on the tower right now. If you have found anything, come out and tell me!”

Ebenezer crawled out of the space tunnel obediently and stood in the shadow of a pillar. Whenever someone walked up the tower, he could immediately hide in the shadow.

Ebenezer cleared his throat and said to Vincent, “After I brought Guru Harson and Daniel back to the safe house in the center of the Tias Mountains, we joined the team to crack the diary. At first, we only focused on the incident that happened 20 years ago, until the day before his death. However, we realized that he was really tight-lipped. He never gave any detailed description. He only mentioned it a few times, but it was more obscure than the original record. Later, the careful Angelina came up with a hypothesis. Since Jacob was hired by Andre, it was very likely that the place they explored was the area where Jacob used to frequent, then that place name must have frequently appeared in the diary from 20 years ago! Thus, we rearranged Jacob’s diary from a young age. Sure enough, we found a place name that frequently appeared in the diary from 20 years ago. But after being employed by Andre, it had never appeared in Jacob’s writings again!”

When Vincent and the frightened Dave heard this, they both thought that they had found the right direction this time. Hence, they hurriedly asked, “Where is it?”

Ebenezer scratched his head and said, “That place isn’t too far from Devil Flame City. Its name is Bright Moon City! However, Horace said that that city had already been destroyed many years ago. Now, it has become a wasteland that no one cares about!”

Vincent and Dave looked at each other and said almost at the same time, “It must be here!”

Ebenezer looked at the tacit understanding between Vincent and Dave and could not help but feel a little envious and jealous. He said helplessly, “I’ve already said what I needed to say. If there’s nothing else, I’ll go back first!”

“Wait!”

Vincent called out to Ebenezer, who was about to open the space door, he said to him in a serious tone, “Go back and tell Horace to approach Bright Moon City secretly. It’s very likely that Andre is heading there. Now, it’s time for us to close the net!”

Ebenezer heard that there was finally going to be a war and could not help but say excitedly, “That’s great. I’ll go back and inform everyone. Not only that old man Horace, but even I am also going crazy from holding it in!”

Vincent nodded and exhorted, “When you go back, remember to tell Avril and Angelina not to enter the space tunnel created by the modification authority unless it’s absolutely necessary!”

Ebenezer asked with a puzzled look on his face, “Why?”

Currently, in Vincent’s group, everyone acknowledged that the best ability was the modification authority, especially the ability to modify and open space tunnels at any time. It was simply a godly skill that could kill others and steal their goods!

But why was everyone not allowed to use it?

Vincent sighed helplessly and said, “I locked the Zerg in the space tunnel created by the Lingluo Race. I didn’t expect the tunnel to be in the same space as the space tunnels that we open using modification authority. Previously, I almost died at the hands of the Zerg, so you all have to be careful in the future. Before the Zerg is released from the space tunnel, everyone should refrain from using the space tunnel!”

After hearing that, Ebenezer could not help but think of how he had only revealed his head and left his entire body in the space tunnel earlier. If he was targeted by the Zerg at that time, then the only thing awaiting him would have been death!

After Ebenezer shivered and said in a hurry, “Master, don’t worry. I will definitely pass on the message to your two lovers!”

Vincent nodded and said, “Then you should hurry up and go back. I will set off today and tomorrow. At that time, we will meet in Bright Moon City!”

“Yes, Master!”

Ebenezer responded and jumped off the city wall that was more than ten meters high.

After hearing about the danger in the space tunnel, Ebenezer obviously did not dare to use it anymore so he could only use the simplest way to leave.

The most notable feature under the North City Gate was the long shadow of the city wall. When Ebenezer fell, he turned into a black shadow and flashed past, instantly blending into the shadow of the city wall. He then completely disappeared.

Vincent looked at Ebenezer’s increasingly mature skills and nodded in satisfaction.

Dave walked to Vincent’s side and took the initiative to ask, “When do you plan on leaving?”

Vincent thought for a moment and said, “Tomorrow morning. I can almost reach Bright Moon City at the same time as Horace and the others!”

Dave said firmly, “I want to go too!”

Vincent looked at Dave and said solemnly, “How can that be? Right now, your power in Devil Flame City is still not stable, and you have someone like David watching you like a tiger watching its prey. If you do not take charge of Devil Flame City personally, it is very likely that you will be replaced by someone else. I know that you want to persuade Andre personally, but at the moment, you have to distinguish who is more important!”

However, Dave retorted, “Today, you have already made a move in public. I believe that during the next period of time, no one will dare to provoke us in terms of force. What we need to do next is nothing more than to win over the hearts of the elves. I can find someone to replace me! Don’t forget that the two of us can modify. We can modify the appearance of others to any appearance!”

After seeing that Dave had already prepared so well, Vincent had no reason to reject his request. He could only ask helplessly, “Then, are you prepared to have someone replace you?”

Dave nodded and smiled at Vincent. He replied, “Not only me, but I’ve also even found a substitute for you!”

“Oh?”

Vincent looked at Dave with some curiosity. He could vaguely guess the answer from the smile on his face.

Soon, under the orders of His Highness, a group of soldiers left the North City Gate and went straight to the riverside mansion. They brought back Rooney.

At the same time, Catherine and Monica were also in the group, but they all followed the orders of His Highness. They were disguised as ordinary soldiers and had blended into the group. The two of them naturally did not know why Dave had done this, but they believed that there was absolutely no harm in listening to what Dave had said, so they followed accordingly.

It was not until evening that the two soldiers who were supposed to escort Rooney entered the North City Gate again.

After seeing Dave and Vincent, Rooney, the craftsman, quickly said, “My lords, I now have some experience in forging knives. These days, I have been forging a few knives with different styles. Are you interested in commenting on them?”

Vincent waved his hand and said, “Not interested! Knives pay the most attention to actual combat, and styling is meaningless. This time, I’m taking you back to the city so that you can forge a batch of uniform military knives for the northern city guards. As for your unique-styled knives, you can keep them in your collection!”

When Rooney heard that Vincent was not interested in his own ideas, he could not help but feel a little disappointed. However, when he heard that Vincent wanted him to forge knives for the entire army, he immediately became excited.

“The entire North Gate’s defending army needs to be equipped with a knife? That’s great! Leave it to me. As long as I have enough materials, I will be able to forge an absolutely sharp weapon. When that time comes, I will definitely make the Devil Flame City’s army the number one force in the world!”

After hearing this, Vincent could not help but turn to look at the impatient Dave. He raised his chin, indicating that it was his turn to speak.

Dave turned to Rooney and said, “I don’t need your guarantee at the moment. You just need to start forging knives immediately!”

Rooney did not understand the meaning behind Dave’s words, nor did he have the intention to take the initiative to leave. Instead, he said excitedly, “Your Highness Dave is right! I wonder if Your Highness is interested in hearing my recent inspiration? I can bring a unique style to the military knife. I guarantee that it will make the other Dark Elves’ eyes shine!”

Dave’s face was full of black lines as he shouted in a deep voice, “I’m not interested at all. Hurry up and go down!”

Rooney did not care about Dave’s attitude. Instead, he continued to speak with increasing excitement, “Your Highness, you don’t know. My idea will definitely make your eyes shine…”

After seeing that Rooney would not shut up, Dave could not help but quickly order the soldiers behind Rooney, “Everyone, listen up. Force him into the forging room. Watch him and make sure he immediately starts forging. If there is still so much nonsense from him, don’t give him any food!”

“Yes!”

The soldiers replied in unison and then rushed down the tower with Rooney.

However, the two soldiers standing at the end of the line did not move. They did not follow the others out of the tower because they were Catherine and Monica in disguise!

The reason why Dave was so anxious to ask Rooney to leave was to distract a large number of soldiers so that Catherine and Monica could successfully escape from the sight of everyone.

Catherine walked forward and asked Dave with a smile, “Your Highness, why are you in such a hurry to let us return to the city?”

Monica also silently walked to Vincent’s side and looked at him curiously.

Dave sighed softly, “It’s nothing. I just hope that the two of you can pretend to be Vincent and me for a period of time and help us do something!”

“Pretend?”

Catherine sighed in surprise.

“Us?”

Monica looked at Vincent curiously.

Vincent nodded helplessly and said, “The idea that His Highness Dave came up with is really brilliant! It’s most suitable for the two of you to pretend to be us because you are the ones who know Dave and me the best!”

“But our gender is different!”

Monica lowered her head to look at herself and then looked at Vincent with a surprised look. In the end, she added in a low voice, “Even our race is different!”

Vincent smiled slightly, raised his hand, and pressed it on Monica’s face. He said softly, “Modify the appearance!”

A sparkling light flashed, and Monica’s height instantly became exactly the same as Vincent’s.

When Vincent released his hand, Catherine, who was at the side, was surprised to find that Monica’s appearance was exactly the same as Vincent’s. There were no flaws at all.

Dave turned to look at the surprised Catherine and said with a smile, “Don’t just stand there, you’ll look exactly the same as me later!”
