Chapter 2912 Inside
Of course, Professor Moriarty is well aware of how much his students hate the Conquest Order, and he also knows that Joan is closely related to the Walsung family in Stone Pillar Town. If he chooses to side with the Conquest Order, he will not give Joe Ann wrote to reveal the ambitious plot of "The Wood Destroyer".
From this, Joan can deduce that even if Mr. Professor is not an ally of Stone Pillar Town, at least he will not become an accomplice of "Wood Destroyer" Doran Tracys.
The reason why Professor Moriarty did not express his position in the letter, nor did he tell Joan what to do next, perhaps because he felt that Joan was already an adult and should make decisions based on his own judgment. Obey the teacher's words.
So he only stated the facts in the letter, but did not give any subjective suggestions. As for what to do next, he fully respected Joan's own decision.
In fact, Joan is no stranger to this kind of attitude from his mentor.
Not so long ago, when Inanna asked him whether he should accept the throne of Udinos, Joann's advice to his adopted daughter was "don't care what others say, make the choice you want to make", which is exactly the same as Moriarty The professor's approach at the moment coincides with each other.
After figuring out this joint, Qiao An felt relieved, and the next question was how to deal with this coming crisis.
He took out the communication crystal, intending to forward the information provided by the mentor to Master Gray and the Volsung brothers and sisters, reminding them to guard against cultists and frost giants.
However, he suddenly thought of another thing: Is the information provided by Professor Moriarty really credible?
As far as Qiao An is concerned, based on the past teacher-student friendship, he unconditionally believes in the information provided by his mentor, but when he forwards these unconfirmed news, in case the information is not completely true and causes disastrous consequences, wouldn't he Also responsible?
Considering that this matter is very involved, and a small negligence will affect the fate of countless people, Qiao An felt that it is better to be more cautious, so he took out the "remote viewing mirror", and followed the clues provided by the teacher in the letter to cast a spell to detect and conquer the teaching. The movement of the regiment headquarters.
Unfortunately, as Professor Moriarty described in his letter, the great swamp in the middle of the "Hanged Head Forest" was shrouded in an illusion barrier, and detection spells below the legendary level could not penetrate the barrier, and the mirror surface was pitch black.
Joan had no choice but to give up the long-range investigation, stood up, and hesitated whether to teleport directly to the vicinity of the "Mirage Swamp" where the "Wood Destroyer" was entrenched, sneak in, and investigate in person.
Sneaking into the stronghold of the conquest order alone and operating in the territory of a demigod is too risky to measure!
Joan is not afraid of taking risks, and he doesn't lack the means to save his life, but he is worried that if Dolan Treacys is alerted and the original plan is changed, the information Professor Moriarty has collected so hard will be wasted , the loss outweighs the gain.
So besides going there in person, is there any other way to verify the information?
Joan thought about it, and finally thought of a person.
With the mentality of giving it a try, Joan picked up the communication crystal and sent a letter to Sister Scala, the "Nine-Headed Troll". Professor Moriarty and General Laval...
It didn't take long for Joan to receive a reply from Scala. The language style was still as confusing as ever, but fortunately, there were a few valuable information mixed in, which were enough to prove that what Professor Moriarty said in the letter was true, and made him feel relieved. tone.
In addition, Scala also mentioned an episode in the reply letter, which aroused Joan's interest.
"My lord, we are gathering stupid orcs and clumsy treants!"
"Those scumbags are really stupid, even more stupid than Scala, the general is so angry that he often shakes his head and sighs!"
"Whenever you are in a bad mood, the general will take a walk in the woods alone, and sometimes take out a small wine bottle to look amazing!"
"Scala has no meat to eat, and is also very depressed!"
"Scala hunts in the woods, and occasionally meets a walking general!"
"Scala not only loves to eat meat, but also loves to drink!"
"Scala asked the general if the wine in that small bottle is good to drink! Can you give Scala a taste!"
"The general told Scala that it was a gift from his professor friend before he left the jungle, drank the wine in the bottle, and never had any troubles!"
"Scala doesn't believe in such nonsense!"
"Smart Scala told the general that it's true to be drunk, but it's even more uncomfortable to wake up with a headache!"
"My lord general laughed, and told Scala that it was a bottle of poisoned wine. If you drink it, you will die. The dead will not be troubled!"
"What does 'poisoning' mean? Scala can't understand!"
"The cunning Sharman often concocts poisonous wine with weird herbs secretly, and tricks Scala into drinking it!"
"The wicked Sharman wants to poison Scala to death, or poison Scala's brain to be stupid, completely at his mercy!"
"But it's useless! No matter what kind of poison can kill Scala, Scala can't die, and there is no shortage of troubles, so I have to beat the cunning Sharman to vent my anger!"
"Shaman was beaten so loudly that he hugged his head and begged for mercy, saying that he would not dare next time!"
"Lie! Despicable Sharman, dare to do it next time! It's useless to beat him up, Scala is so angry!"
...
Scala is a bit crazy, but she will not lie. The so-called "worship-relief wine" she saw in the hands of General Laval reminded Joan of the "wine of eternal life" that her mentor drank back then.
Could it be that Professor Moriarty used the "Holy Grail of Death" to brew a new "wine of immortality" and gave it to General Laval?
From the letter from the tutor, it is not difficult for Joan to see that he and Laval get along well, and they can be regarded as friends in need. Otherwise, Laval would not confide his inner distress to the professor.
Judging from Laval's experience, in just six months, he became a shameful traitor from a senior general of the Continental Army, but his conscience is still not lost. Fleeing to Freeport, he also issued a statement wishful thinking, insisting not to be an enemy of his former comrades-in-arms, so he offended Earl Winthrop, and was not reused in Feizhen's army. Conquer the order.
Joan heard from Arnold that his brother's cooperation with the conquest order was not pleasant.
In fact, Laval has always wanted to get rid of the control of the cult, but in order to carry out the bloody oath of revenge for his mother and massacre the aborigines, and to win victory on the battlefield, Laval succumbed to the temptation of the "wood destroyer" time and time again. Fight against powerful enemies with your own strength, and finally get stuck in the quagmire, unable to get out.
