  Chapter 466 I hope the dragon is okay (23)

   "I know what you mean, but it's always something that other people know about."

Tres took a puff of his pipe, a habit he had developed over the past eight years as an undercover agent. The inspector knight shook his head slightly: "Although Lord Marquis is not a great knight, he is also a major faction of our knight order. There is nothing to hide. Although the various departments need to keep secrets, at least internally it should be clear who is who."

"you're right."

  Ian sighed, not intending to refute Tres.

The internal power distribution of the Patrol Knights is that the head and two deputy heads are the highest commanders, and the grand knights of the third level are united under several commanders, and under the grand knights, there are also their own squads , followers and apprentices.

  The Marquis of Barton is quite an independent part. He is neither a commander nor any great knight. He directly belongs to His Majesty the Emperor and is responsible for the frontier military situation.

  And first-level patrol knight apprentices like Ian actually belong to the category that still needs to 'continue training'... missions can only be given out after passing the test.

   "But you shouldn't need it—people from the Marquis of Barton's side, as long as they are recommended, they are considered qualified. The old general's assessment is very strict, and many great knights who have met him feel very scary."

Tres didn't talk much on weekdays. The reason why he explained to Ian enthusiastically was mainly because the young man had been inducing him all the time. With his curious attitude, his status as a junior, his satisfied praise and admiring eyes, this rather For the knight who likes the respectful gaze of others, he talked a little bit more.

   Probably more than a little.

  In short, this brother knight has also been an undercover agent who has been away from the organization for more than eight years, and he can't say much about the information that is really valuable. He is now patrolling the information of the Knights.

Of course, that being said, Tres is not ignorant of everything. After all, he has also reached the middle and high levels of the organization. He has been to the imperial capital to deliver information several times, and there are special informants to obtain information on weekdays. Not particularly familiar, not that there is a delay in the message.

   "Who do you think those people are? Needless to say, it's Flameland."

Hearing Ian's question, the brown-haired knight said firmly: "It's the nail that Fei Yandi intends to insert in our place. At the beginning, it used local gangs and sublimation organizations as a cover, but after the recent period of development and growth, there are many people. Members of the Special Operations Brigade from Shaofeiyandi have settled in."

   "They were quite cautious, but because they reached out to the side of the imperial capital, I was inserted in to see the situation... After realizing that there was a big fish behind, I lurked in it and passed messages back and forth."

   It sounds like a lot, but in fact Tres just briefly described his undercover career, without revealing any key information.

   Regarding this, Ian was also very curious: "Then what is the purpose of this group of flying flame agents' actions this time?"

   "Is it really the participants who attacked the Lonely Mountain Conference and obtained that what... the crystal of the source of the earth?"

   "It should be. But I actually don't know what the crystals of the source of the earth veins are. I don't know whether they are on this train or not. It may be just false news. After all, we really didn't find them just now."

Tres nodded, and the undercover knight's expression was quite serious: "I'm just a member of the periphery in this organization, well, I have a bit of status. But only people from Flameland can be core members. Others, like Those of us who are undercover, and those few imperial traitors who were captured, are all peripheral personnel of local development."

   "I also tried to infiltrate several times and became a high-level executive. I found that I couldn't succeed, so I decided to end the undercover operation—otherwise, I would definitely be able to find out the headquarters of the Feiyan spy organization in the western province!"

  —Haha, then you're probably going to find out Grand Duke Thorin.

  Ian laughed in his heart, but the expression on the outside was still stunned: "So that's it—then why did they use the name of the Dragon Worship Cult? I mean...are they trying to blame the Dragon Worship Cult?"

   "Maybe."

   Tres took a bite of pork ribs, shook his head and said, "This is all done by Kyle, the guy who I injected with the paralyzing toxin. We just need to execute, and the plan is never clear."

  An answer like this can also be regarded as an answer, and Ian learned some key information from it.

  —Has Xiou's identity really been exposed?

  Thinking of this, Ian couldn't help feeling a little worried. He raised his hand and held the pendant in front of him.

  —Since the people in Feiyandi really know the identity of Xiou...then, thinking that they are hiding well, they are going to the western border to eradicate Xiou and Lübeck from the Feiyandi Special Operations Brigade...

   Is it really safe?

Although Ian has never heard any news about this in the possible history of the Hive Path, apart from the possibility of "Flying Flame being instantly killed by the King of the Mountain", it is also possible that "Flying Flame was successfully assassinated The possibility that the King of the Hill may be His child too!

   "Hope the dragon is okay."

  Thinking so in his heart, the exchange between Ian and Tres came to an end, and Ian returned to his seat.

   "What did you chat with that Mr. Knight?"

  As soon as the boy sat down, Hua An asked curiously.

   Of course, this is not pure curiosity—even if the goblin is innocent, she would not ask others such a question.

  Of course, in the inherent prejudice of ordinary people, goblins will indeed do this, just like ordinary people will think that alchemists are group explosions and poison madmen.

  Actually, this is a 'disguise' that Ian asked Ms. Hua An to carry out.

   "Come, Miss Hua An, and Shuang Die."

  And Ian raised his hand and made a lowering gesture. He smiled and said softly: "I have a secret to tell you."

  The young man said so, and felt the fluctuation of wind quality flickering beside him.

  He smiled.

   "I have a friend named Isengarde. Isengarde Ellen. I came to the imperial capital, except to deliver a letter to the Marquis of Barton, the main reason is because I made an appointment with him to meet in the imperial capital."

   "We are comrades in arms who fought together in the Great Labyrinth of the South China Sea. His teacher, the alchemist Master Gosai, is also an elder who is very optimistic about me."

   "And he himself is also the youngest son of Marquis Ellen... Generally speaking, Ethan has a great background, and I helped him a lot in the maze."

   "I was invited by him to come to the Imperial Capital to develop and study."

  Ian was telling the truth, but part of the truth.

It is natural for Miss Hua An to tell Miss Hua An who is traveling with me, but the inspector knight must have other intentions: "Before I took this train, I used the communication device to contact him. He knew that I In this car."

   "Then, we encountered this seemingly dangerous attack, but in fact it was not dangerous."
