"What did you say?!" After listening to Li Huailin's report, Issac couldn't remain calm at all. The Divine Sword Guardians who worked with Li Huailin were all dead. This was a huge loss for the Divine Sword Guardians, which only had over 90 members. Of course, he couldn't remain calm.
After thinking for a moment, Issac said, "We need to report this matter to the Guild Leader immediately. I'll go with you."
After saying that, Ishak began to prepare the barrier. Just like the last time, it could last for 8 hours. After the barrier was set up, Issac and Li Huailin immediately set off for the Divine Sword Guardians' base.
Fortunately, Li Huailin didn't run directly to the Snowy Peak Mountain. The Divine Sword Guardians' base wasn't in the Snowy Peak Mountain. Of course, although it wasn't too far away, Li Huailin wouldn't be able to find it.
The base was located in an unknown mountainous area on the east side of the Snowy Peak Mountain. As they had left the Snowy Peak Mountain, the temperature here was very normal.
The Divine Sword Guardians' base was located in a canyon between two mountains. From the outside, it looked like a large villa belonging to a wealthy family. However, the location was slightly strange. After all, the monsters here were of very high levels, so high that Li Huailin couldn't see through them. Under normal circumstances, no one would come here, and these monsters couldn't harm the Divine Sword Guardians' members.
This was Li Huailin's first time here, and he used Millet, which had just learned how to fly. As Issac was an NPC, he wasn't restricted by the restriction that players couldn't ride Millet. Therefore, Issac's speed was very fast. After flying for about 15 minutes, they arrived at their destination.
Of course, when such a huge dragon flew over, it was immediately discovered by the people in the Sword God Guardians' base. Before it landed, the people below had already come out to check the situation. Ishak also quickly jumped down, while Li Huailin slowly descended.
"Ishak, why are you here?" President Welok also walked out. He was surprised to see Issac, who was supposed to be inside the seal. Although the barrier could temporarily protect the seal, it wasn't safe. Unless there was an emergency, Issac wouldn't come here. So President Welok felt that something was wrong, especially when he saw Li Huailin following behind him.
"Guild Leader, something bad has happened," Ishak said. "Huailin, come here."
"Oh, okay." Li Huailin hurried forward and told Welok about what had happened. Of course, most of it was made up, mainly to explain that apart from him, everyone else was dead.
"What?!" Willock turned pale with fright. "You're saying that our scouting party has been discovered, and apart from you, the rest have been sacrificed?"
"Yes. Actually, I'm also dead. But as you can see, I'm an adventurer. Later on, I resurrected in the main city," Li Huailin explained.
"Yes." After all, it was normal for adventurers to come back to life. Frowning, Willock said, "This … What's going on? They shouldn't have noticed our investigation. Siutley and the others are all very experienced veterans. They shouldn't have made a mistake, right?" "That's right. I don't think they noticed anything.
"Our party was discovered right from the start." Li Huailin said. "The other party understood our movements very well. It was as if they were in our party."
Li Huailin was speaking the truth. He was in the party to begin with.
"This …" President Welok frowned. "You mean to say that there's a spy among our members who leaked this information to the Undead?"
"That's what I think," Li Huailin nodded.
"That's impossible …" President Welok seemed to have a lot of faith in his members. He immediately said, "The members of the Divine Sword Guardians are very loyal. It's impossible for them to betray the organization. Moreover, I know the people who participated in this mission very well, especially Siutley. Although he's an Undead, I practically raised him myself. With him around, it's impossible for something like this to happen."
"Is that so?" Li Huailin didn't want to argue with this guy. "I don't know about that."
"President, what do we do now?" Tolnessen, who was standing beside President Welok, asked anxiously.
"We lost four members in one go …" President Welok bit his lips. "We can't just let this matter go. It seems that we have to prepare for a war with this Divine Sword Guardian."
"War?" Li Huailin felt a headache coming on. This wasn't good. Although the person in the Undead city was Yaze, it would be troublesome if Yaze was killed. Hence, he hurriedly said, "President, the other party obviously knows about us. If we start a war now, we might suffer more losses. Shouldn't we find out how the information was leaked and solve our internal problems first?"
"Hmm …" President Welok nodded. Li Huailin was right. Although he didn't believe that his men were traitors, it was a fact that four of his members had died. Hence, he had to find out how the Undead knew about this matter.
"What's going on?" "Not many people know the specifics of this mission. Apart from the five people in the team at the time, the others probably don't know the specifics of the mission. But according to Huailin, the other party knows everything …"
"That's right. Even I don't know the details of the mission," President Welok said. Willock said. He had only given them the mission. As for how to complete it, it was Captain Huutley who had arranged it. He didn't know the exact itinerary. The more Willock thought about it, the more he began to suspect something was up. "What's going on?
"Everyone, please wait!" Suddenly, a voice came from the side. Everyone immediately turned to the source of the voice. Of course, Li Huailin did the same. But what Li Huailin didn't expect to see was a person he didn't expect to see.
What appeared in front of everyone was a seriously injured person. This guy's left arm was completely gone, his face was wrapped in bandages, his right hand was holding a crutch, and he was limping as he walked. It looked like he was seriously injured. Li Huailin was surprised because this person was the one he thought was dead, Lime.
Lime's appearance surprised everyone. After all, Li Huailin had just said that the others in the party were dead. They didn't expect to see someone alive. How could they not be surprised?
"Lime!" Ishak immediately rushed over and said to Lime. "You're still alive! That's great!"
"Lime, you're back." President Welok also rushed over and said. "Quick, call Dr. Laman over."
"Wait, President." Lyme suddenly said, "Everyone, please listen to me first. I have something important to say, and that is the truth behind the attack on our team."
"Hmm?" President Welok immediately became serious. "Hmm, I also want to know what happened."
"The truth is, this man is a traitor. No … it's more serious than that, because he's the wielder of the Divine Sword of the Undead we're looking for, Wocha!" Lyme pointed at Li Huailin and said.
"Huh?" Everyone was taken aback. They turned to look at Li Huailin, then at Lyme. "What's going on?"
"That day, we had just arrived at the rendezvous point, but before we could move, the hotel we were in suddenly exploded. Of course, we didn't have any equipment, and everyone was seriously injured," Lime said.
"We know that. Huailin already told us," Ishak said.
Lime continued, "At that time, I was sent flying by a huge force and lost consciousness. When I regained consciousness, I realized that I was seriously injured and couldn't move. I was even buried under the rubble. At that time, I heard two people talking through the rubble. It was him, the big-breasted Ruolin, and an undead lord. They had already killed Captain Suttley and the others, and they were talking about finding me. They also mentioned looking for corpses with badges, so I placed my badge on a corpse next to me and escaped. That's how I managed to escape. But the undead's main city is heavily searched, and I only managed to escape now. I immediately came back to report the situation. I heard the conversation between him and the undead lord. The undead lord called him Your Highness, so he's the one we're looking for! "
Everyone looked at Li Huailin in amazement. At this time, Li Huailin felt a bit of a headache. He had been so careful, but he didn't expect that this guy would still escape. He didn't know what the undead were doing. Couldn't they be a little more serious?
Li Huailin looked at the gazes of the people around him. They were clearly suspicious of him. Li Huailin pondered for a moment. If he admitted that he was a traitor now, there would be two results. The first was that everyone here would immediately become enemies and start fighting. The second was that they wouldn't become enemies and their Favorability would soar.
Li Huailin didn't know how the system decided, but after thinking about it, it was easy to make a choice. Everyone's Favorability was already maxed out, so even if he could reverse the situation and increase their Favorability, it would be meaningless. There was no need for him to take the risk and admit it. With that thought, Li Huailin immediately understood what he had to do.
"Hahahaha …" Li Huailin suddenly laughed loudly. While the people around him were wondering what was going on, Li Huailin pointed at Lime and said, "I understand, I finally understand. So that's what's going on?"
"Huh?" The people around him were stunned. What did he understand?
"I finally understand why our team's matters were discovered by the other party. It turns out that you are the traitor!" Li Huailin immediately made a countercharge.
"What?" The people around him were really full of twists and turns. Before they could digest what Lime had said, Li Huailin had already started to expose them.
"You're lying!" Lime said angrily. "You're the traitor!"
"I understand now. You must have reported our situation to the Undead, and that's why we were attacked. I've told you what happened. They wanted to kill us all, but they quickly realized a serious problem. I'm an adventurer, so it's impossible to kill us all at once. So, they came up with another idea, which was to frame me as a traitor and get you all to come after me. This way, not only can I not tell you the truth, but this traitor, Lime, will also continue to monitor us and provide information to the Undead because he reported us," Li Huailin said.
"You … you're lying!" Lime said immediately. "I saw you talking to the Undead Lord with my own eyes. He called you Your Highness very respectfully, and you're still saying you're not Wocha?"
"Oh?" Li Huailin smiled. "Look, everyone. This man is spouting nonsense just to frame me. Think about it, Wocha is the wielder of the Godly Sword. What kind of Godly Sword is he wielding? It's the Godly Sword Glow, which is famous for its danger. I'm not too sure, but according to what you said, only the Undead can wield the Godly Sword Glow. Do I look like someone who can wield the Godly Sword Glow?"
Everyone looked at Li Huailin, then at Lime suspiciously. This was too suspicious. Li Huailin was right. He was a human adventurer, so how could he wield the Godly Sword Glow? The Godly Sword Glow was the sacred sword of the Undead. How could a human wielder be the wielder of the Godly Sword Glow?
"I … I'm not too sure what's going on, but it's the truth. I saw it with my own eyes." Lime didn't know what was going on either, but he clearly saw Li Huailin stab their captain to death with the Sun Spear, and Millet was still standing beside Li Huailin. This meant that the black-robed Emperor Wocha he saw was Li Huailin himself. But what Li Huailin said was the truth. Ordinary humans couldn't wield the Godly Sword Glow, but Lime couldn't understand why.
"You saw it with your own eyes?" Li Huailin's words were reasonable, and President Willock quickly questioned Lime suspiciously. "That's a little suspicious. Huailin's right. He can't be the wielder of the Godly Sword. Why are you saying this? Explain it to me immediately! "
"I … Guild Leader, believe me. I've only been a member for two years, but my beliefs are very firm. There's no way I'd betray the organization and conspire with the undead. Why would I do such a thing? I'm an elf, after all. What benefits could I possibly obtain from the undead?" Lime immediately explained when he saw that Willock was doubting him. "That's right, I'm an elf.
"This … seems to make sense." President Willock nodded. There had to be a reason for Lime to be a traitor. The Undead couldn't possibly bribe him.
"President." Li Huailin said with a smile, "Although I don't know why he betrayed the organization, think about it. Right now, my story is completely different from his. One of us must be lying, right?"
"Mhm." President Willock nodded and signaled Li Huailin to continue.
"Then, President, I have to ask. He said he wouldn't betray the organization. Do you really believe that I would?" Li Huailin asked with a smile.
"Mhm?" President Willock immediately reacted. Yes, that's right. Would Li Huailin betray the Divine Sword Guardians? That's impossible! This guy was someone that everyone in the association trusted. Although he came later than Lyme, his character was guaranteed. Just based on the fact that he had slapped himself over a hundred times in public, Lyme trusted him 100%. How could I doubt his words?
"Yes, President. I have absolute trust in Huailin. He would never betray the Divine Sword Guardians," Issac immediately said. He turned to Lyme and said, "You b * stard, Barba was fooled by you and brought you into the organization, you ungrateful wretch. I thought it was strange that you volunteered for the mission as a newbie. Now that I think about it, you're really trying to send a message to the Undead Tribe!"
"What? Lord Ishak, I'm not a traitor. "Lyme felt wronged. This really wasn't him." He's the traitor! "
"Shut up!" President Willock suddenly shouted. "We all know Huailin's character. He would never betray the organization. You want us to suspect him? That's impossible!"
"But …" Lime was speechless. He didn't know what to do.
"Men, take this traitor away," Tolnessin immediately said.
"Wait, President," Issac suddenly said. Ishak suddenly said, "He's Barba's disciple after all, so he should be the one to handle it. How about this, leave this matter to me. I'll take him to Barba now and let him handle it himself."
"Mhm?" President Willock thought for a moment, then nodded. "You're right. I'll leave it to you."
"Mhm?" Li Huailin was surprised. "So we're going to the seal guarded by Barba? The Heavenly Sword's Enlightenment seal? Wait, I'll go too. After all, I'm the person involved. "
"Mm." Ishak nodded in agreement.
