Tianxin City frontline command camp.
Xiao Yingfan sat behind his desk, staring at the documents on the table, revealing a thoughtful expression.
Just half an hour ago, the scouts at the front suddenly sent a message.
They discovered a sky-high flame on the Black-scaled Lizardmen's defense line.
After some analysis, the location of the fire happened to be the Black-scaled Lizardfolk's outpost camp.
This phenomenon immediately aroused the vigilance of Xiao Yingfan and the officers. They immediately sent out more scouts to investigate in detail.
"That shouldn't be. We didn't plan to attack the Lizardmen camp for the past two days.”
Xiao Yingfan muttered to himself.
After a long battle, the Human Alliance and the Black-scaled Lizardmen had welcomed a peaceful confrontation.
Both sides had a tacit agreement to stop fighting so that the soldiers below could have some time to catch their breath.
Therefore, it was definitely not a military operation.
"Could it be the Card Association? It couldn't be that the group of lizards had burned down the camp when they were roasting their own food, right?”
Xiao Yingfan shook his head.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door opened and his assistant, Ge Chenglin, walked in.
"General, we've found out that a Black-scaled Lizardfolk outpost camp ten miles north has been destroyed. The entire camp has been burned to the ground.”
"Heh, well done. I should have let these lizards have a taste of being roasted. Let's see if they still dare to roast humans.”
Xiao Yingfan grinned.
Ge Chenglin was already used to his boss's carelessness, so he smiled nonchalantly.
"How are the losses?"
" The scouts we sent captured a few Lizardmen soldiers for interrogation. It's said that the losses were very heavy. Less than 10% of the thousands of Lizardmen soldiers in the camp survived. Even Captain Andrew and Lizardman Wizard Grovi died in battle.”
The moment these words came out, Xiao Yingfan's expression finally changed.
"Do you know who did it?"
"I don't know yet."
Ge Chenglin spread his hands helplessly.
"I heard that the soldiers didn't see the attacker's true face from the beginning. The attacker used the scene card from the beginning.”
"Scene card? A card user with a fantasy-grade deck?"
Xiao Yingfan raised his eyebrows.
"It looks like an adventurer team or a powerful adventurer has made a move.”
"Old Ge, call the Carter Association and ask if they have recently issued a mission to destroy the Lizardmen camp.”
Ge Chenglin nodded and left the office to make a phone call.
However, after a while, he walked back with a strange expression.
"What's wrong?"
Xiao Yingfan noticed his expression and was somewhat puzzled.
"The Card Student Association said that they have never issued such a mission.”
Xiao Yingfan was stunned.
"Then what's going on? Those adventurer teams and adventurers wouldn't be so kind as to help us get rid of our enemies for free, right?”
Adventurer teams and adventurers were existences that would not rise early unless there was profit.
They would never do anything without sufficient remuneration.
There were indeed some adventurers who would hunt the Black-scaled Lizardmen and skin them to sell for money. However, a powerhouse who could destroy the Lizardmen camp would definitely not do it for such a small profit.
"I'm not sure either."
"However, I heard another piece of news.”
At this point, Ge Chenglin paused and revealed a look of disbelief as if he had just heard some shocking news.
"Someone has completed the Hell Mode Advancement Quest.”
"Ah?"
Xiao Yingfan was a little confused.
A moment later.
He finally understood the meaning behind Ge Chenglin's words, and his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Hell Mode?"
"Yes."
Hiss!
Seeing Ge Chenglin nod, Xiao Yingfan couldn't help but gasp.
Ever since the Will of the Stars released the Promotion Quest, no one had ever completed the Hell Mode difficulty, be it one or nine stars.
The three words 'Hell Mode' had almost become a symbol.
High and mighty.
However, he couldn't really touch it.
But now, he was telling me that someone had passed the Hell Mode?
If it wasn't for the fact that these words came from the mouth of his usually calm and meticulous assistant, Xiao Yingfan would have suspected that there was something wrong with the person who spoke.
Even so, he could not help but confirm again,
"Are you sure the news is correct?"
"The Card Student Association is still making further confirmation, but it should be correct. When did the Will of the Stars make a mistake?”
"That's true."
Xiao Yingfan was silent for a few seconds, and his expression became solemn.
"Report to the higher-ups. We have to find the person who passed the Hell Mode difficulty. This kind of genius must at least appear in the eyes of the Alliance officials.”
At this time, Xiao Yingfan had already forgotten about the destruction of the Lizardmen camp.
Compared to the former, a mere Lizardfolk camp was not worth mentioning at all.
Finding the genius who had passed the Hell Mode difficulty was the most important thing.
Ge Chenglin shrugged helplessly.
Find that person?
It was easier said than done.
