Chapter 127 Bizarre Scenes

Fang Yu's words struck Lahousi's heart like a heavy hammer, instantly dispelling all her emotions.

"What do you know?"

Seeing Laju's solemn expression, Fang Yu didn't care. He just glanced at the empty corridor and said with a half-smile, "Are you sure you want me to say it here?"

"Please come in."

Lahoz, somewhat helplessly, made way for him.

After Fang Yu and Mia entered, La Qiusi peeked out from both sides of the corridor before returning to her room, closing the door, and locking it.

"My team members are all inside, let's go in and talk."

Lahoz walked ahead, her mood somewhat heavy.

She wasn't sure if Black Knife had somehow learned of their plans, or if Lana had approached Black Knife after her and successfully won him over, which led to Black Knife contacting them.

She had even prepared for the worst: that her and Princess Lana's plans had been leaked, and if that were the case, Eight Fingers might launch a full-scale attack on them.

The members of the Blue Rose group, who were in the room, felt a pang of worry when they saw Lajus walk back into her room with a somewhat downcast expression.

Before they could ask any questions, Fang Yu and Mia emerged from behind Li Qiusi. A moment of surprise flashed through everyone's minds, and they instinctively became alert. Tia quickly tucked the map on the table into her bosom, afraid that someone would see its contents.

Tina and Gegrand had already subtly reached for their weapons, while only Ibiruai seemed relatively calm, or rather, she first felt a strong sense of threat from Fang Yu and Mia's arrival, and then seemed somewhat stunned.

"Everyone, don't be nervous. This is Black Blade, and the one next to her is Steel Princess, a newly arrived Steel-level adventurer in the capital."

Lahoz quickly reassured everyone and introduced the newcomer.

Upon hearing this, Ibiruai confirmed her guess, while the others remained wary. After all, the matter they were discussing could not be known to outsiders, as it concerned the future of the kingdom and the safety of everyone's lives, and therefore had to be taken seriously.

Gegrand, being straightforward, immediately questioned it.

"Lahagi, what exactly is going on?"

This question also puzzled others. Lajus hadn't mentioned Black Knife's involvement, and the fact that she took so long to open the door, clearly having talked with Black Knife for a while, yet still brought him back inside, suggests that he might have known something.

Even though Gegelan has a straightforward and easygoing personality, his questions are always watertight.

"Ha~ha."

Lahoz smiled awkwardly, looking somewhat dejected.

"I don't know either, but Black Knife said he knows information about Eight Fingers."

"What?"

"ha!"

Even Ibiruai was a little unsettled. The plan hadn't even started yet, and someone already knew they were going to deal with Eight Fingers. This was no way information could be leaked like this.

"Don't worry, everyone. I have been intentionally gathering information about the Eight Fingers for a long time, and I have a very comprehensive understanding of it. As for the source of the information you have entrusted, it was obtained by my companions using an unreplicable method."

Fang Yu slowly walked to the table and stated his purpose. At his signal, Mia opened her palm, and a tiny bee, less than one centimeter in diameter, slowly rose from her hand.

The group of members of the Blue Roses lingered for a moment on the silent little bee in mid-air, feeling both curious and appreciative of this method of intelligence gathering.

After all, who would pay attention to an ordinary bee? It can only be said that this method of controlling bees to gather intelligence is too advanced. It is very likely that when Lajus was talking to Princess Lana, there was such a bee eavesdropping on her conversation.

This scene softened the gazes of the Blue Rose members considerably. At least they could confirm that this method was indeed unreplicable, and only Black Blade and Steel Princess knew about it. It seemed that the other party had always intended to take action against Eight Fingers, and that they had come here specifically to deliver intelligence to them.

"That's absolutely awful."

Lajus's face showed anger, clearly still resentful about being overheard.

Mia returned a provocative grin, which made Lajus sullen and resentful.

Seeing that Mia and Lajus were somewhat at odds, Fang Yu quickly changed the subject, saying, "I just accepted Gazef's request and am about to head to Ye Lantier to deal with the Zhranong members active in the area. Before that, I've come to provide you with some intelligence."

"What do you know?"

Ibiluai was very curious about just how comprehensive the intelligence Fang Yu mentioned was. After all, with such strong intelligence gathering capabilities, it wouldn't be surprising if he had even gathered the locations of all the departments of the Eight Fingers.

"I know more than you can imagine."

Fang Yu revealed a mysterious smile, placed his hands on the table, and stared straight at Tia. Tia was a little confused by his gaze, but she immediately realized what he meant and spread the map back on the table.

While Fang Yu was looking at the map, Lajus had returned to her seat, sitting very close to him. Along with the others, she stared intently at Black Blade, hoping he would circle some Eight Fingers stronghold locations on the map.

However, after looking at it for a few seconds, Fang Yu shook his head and said, "Your map is too rough. Do you have a pen and paper? I'll draw you a more detailed map."

Upon hearing this, the members of the Blue Rose were stunned. Drawing a map with bare hands? What kind of operation is this? How well do they know the structure of the royal capital to dare to say such a thing?

Keep in mind that the map they had was already the most detailed one they could imagine, yet in Black Knife's eyes, it was still too rough? How detailed does it have to be to be considered exquisite?

Although somewhat incredulous, seeing Black Knife's serious expression, Laju frowned and pondered for a moment before asking, "No other tools needed? Just paper and pen?"

"No, no need. If you don't have any, you can have your team members buy some. I won't go to avoid suspicion."

Fang Yu nodded seriously.

"In that case, I'll go and make the preparations."

Upon hearing this, Lahoz had nothing to say and got up to walk outside.

After Lahoz left, the room fell silent for a moment.

"Lord Black Blade, I've always heard that your swordsmanship is superb. Let's spar sometime."

Gegrand laughed heartily. She sensed the aura of a powerful figure emanating from the black blade, and since the other party was one of her own, she wanted to see for herself.

"no problem."

Fang Yu did not refuse; rather, he did not take it to heart, because the other party was unlikely to have any further thoughts of sparring in the near future.

"I'll be watching closely then, and I hope you don't lose too badly."

Ibiruai teased Gagran with a hint of schadenfreude, not believing that Gagran was a match for Black Knife.

Gegrand didn't care, and instead laughed heartily, "Doesn't that just prove the rumors are true?"

"I'll go easy on you then."

Ibiruai seems to have found something fun.

"I'm already looking forward to it."

The conversation lasted for several tens of minutes.

When Laju returned and saw Black Knife chatting happily with everyone, as if they were old friends of decades, she blinked in disbelief for a moment.

What's going on? It's one thing for Gagran to be like this, but where are Tia and Tina, who are usually quite taciturn? Why has even Evilue, who is usually indifferent to others, lost her usual aloofness?

Why does everyone seem so familiar with Black Knife? Has she been gone for several years?
