This made Ye Qing curious about what Ino was looking at.

"Don't look at it. That book is just a spellcasting tool. What she saw was not from that book."

Delaris patted Ye Qing on the shoulder and looked at her as if she was looking at a young person who had never seen the world.

It is obvious that the methods he displayed before were ruthless and cruel, and he was cautious and careful, if not meticulous. How could he be like a novice when it comes to this kind of "common sense"?

"I see, Delaris, you seem to be very familiar with them, do you come here often?"

Ye Qing nodded. This kind of thing belonged to the system props. No matter how hard she tried, she couldn't figure out anything from it. So she simply changed the topic to Delaris.

Seeing that she has a good relationship with the Hull siblings, she might be a regular customer of this black marketeer.

"Not really, I can only say that we have a good relationship... Why, it's a long story if I tell you about it, why did you prepare so many props, even if it's for your team, isn't that too much?"

Delaris waved her hand. It wasn't that she didn't want to talk about it, but it was just that this matter was going too far.

She also noticed the amount Ye Qing needed. It didn't seem like something prepared just for one team.

Especially considering the number of people in Ye Qing's guild, these props are unnecessary in number.

"Well... I'll be of use to you, so don't worry about it."

Ye Qing smiled mysteriously, which made De Lalis, who was standing next to her, shudder.

The last time Ye Qing laughed like this, the eldest prince died on the spot. Which unlucky guy is going to get into trouble this time?

Seeing De Lalis subconsciously taking a few steps back, Ye Qing spread his hands helplessly.

"We are allies now. Have you ever seen me betray my allies?"

Chapter 51 Orcs

"Sir, I have found everything you want, but the price is not cheap. And you are preparing these things for the expedition to the highlands, right?"

After a long while, Ino stopped flipping through the book in his hand, and a list popped out from the book.

At the same time, a virtual list appeared in front of Ye Qing, stating the prices that needed to be settled.

Four million goddess coins...

Based on the current official exchange rate for the Goddess Coin in the auction house, this money is also tens of thousands of Yanxia Coins.

If someone else heard about buying game props to this extent, they would have thought that the person was crazy.

But Ye Qing was certainly not crazy, and after paying the bill quite promptly, he felt a pang of pain in his heart.

This is her monthly salary, and she just spent it like this...

With Ye Qing's frugality, she can rotate her team uniforms and regular clothes every month and only eat meals provided by the base.

This is also why some people in the team always feel that Ye Qing doesn’t look like a girl at all, or even like a normal person.

This kind of mentality and self-control ability is rare in the entire history of e-sports.

"We have received your payment. Please wait a moment and our staff will deliver the goods to you."

Ino smiled and nodded, a strange light flashed on his tail, and some of the cats around him started to carry goods for Ye Qing.

Although the price is a bit high, considering the quantity Ye Qing purchased and the time saved, it is really good value for money.

This was naturally not because Yinuo was asking for a random price, but because this housekeeping sister was also aware of the importance of Ye Qing as a guest.

Without Hull's instructions, she could find the right balance between making money and retaining repeat customers.

"Very good... Oh, by the way, I have a few more materials that are also hard to find on the market. I wonder if you have them here."

Taking this opportunity, Ye Qing also wanted to solve the equipment problem.

He had basically no shortage of weapons, and the Longyuan battle robe on his body could only be replaced in the future. The key was the spear sealed in amber.

Ever since obtaining this weapon from Feilin, Ye Qing has never had the opportunity to use it.

She even created a small account for this purpose and had already trained for the profession she was going to use, but the problem was the materials needed to complete the equipment.

Some of the items in Ye Qing’s inventory have been used up, and some are quite rare considering the current maps, some are even out of stock.

As a result, Ye Qing even saw materials with an early drop rate of less than 0.01%. The conditions for completing this equipment were a bit harsh.

But in the fantasy world of God, the more complex and rare the materials needed to complete the game are, the stronger the attributes and effects of the final equipment will be.

This is very well reflected in the Longyuan battle robe. In the past, Ye Qing did not use any weapons, but relied solely on the passiveness and positioning of the Longyuan battle robe to kill the enemy.

"Let me see... sir, are you sure you want these things?"

After reading the list of materials given by Ye Qing, Ino was obviously a little hesitant.

"That's right, but there's no rush for these materials. I can wait."

Ye Qing nodded. The spear sealed in amber was not that high in priority. She would need this as a backup if she entered the playoffs.

--------

After dealing with the problem of props, Ye Qing said goodbye to Delaris and went to the palace first to get some information.

As far as she knew, the plot of heading to the Orc Highlands should have happened after the beast tide plot. It was because of the inexplicable beast tide that launched the attack that the royal family had to conduct an investigation.

But now not only has the investigation been brought forward, but such a large number of adventurers have also been organized to enter the forest. This is obviously not right.

After successfully entering the palace, Ye Qing did not see Feilin, but Hill was waiting for her here.

"Your Highness is away visiting other countries and won't be back anytime soon. Sir Knight, do you have any questions?"

Hill brought Ye Qing to the reception room. As the emperor, Feilin was not in the palace at the moment, so her rights naturally limited her to using such a reception room.

Although strictly speaking, as the Queen's Knight, Ye Qing's official position is higher than Hill's, the official has not opened up such authority.

Therefore, even if Ye Qing wanted to take a closer look at the various facilities in the palace, he could only rely on the NPC to lead the way, otherwise he could only break in or sneak in.

"Then I'll be frank. Why did the Orcs in the Highlands suddenly launch an expedition?"

Ye Qing didn't need to explain too much. With Hill's level, she certainly knew the whole story.

As a popular figure around Feilin, Hill, the affairs officer, has more power than many people.

After hearing what Ye Qing said, Hill stood up with a heavy face and motioned Ye Qing to follow him.

"This matter is not simple, and if His Majesty did not have solid evidence, he would not have easily launched this expedition."

After leaving the meeting room, Hill took Ye Qing and walked straight to the cell.

This is not even a prison in the imperial capital, but a cell in the palace specially used to detain certain special prisoners.

The cell where Feilin was imprisoned before was actually better than these, but that was because Feilin was a princess. Naturally, other prisoners did not receive such good treatment.

After the Royal Knight pushed open the hidden door, the two slowly walked into the underground cell.

"If this place is not necessary, we don't want to use it..."

Hill's face was also full of anxiety. Obviously, the prisoners detained this time were difficult to deal with in every sense.

No matter how troublesome the prisoner was, the worst that could happen was a death sentence, but this guy wouldn't let her die.

When he saw the prisoners in the cell, Ye Qing fell silent.

The one bound in the cell by chains and magic circles was a female foxman.

The other party did not seem to have any obvious external injuries, and should have been mostly healed before being imprisoned. Ye Qing also felt that Feilin's methods were more merciful compared to the old emperor.

In past plot lines, prisoners who entered this cell would either have their hands or feet cut off, physically eliminating the possibility of their escape.

And if it is something that can be negotiated and still has value, it basically won't be thrown into this damn place.

"Now that there is a soundproof barrier, she can't hear what we are saying. Sir Knight, please be careful about your words and actions and don't reveal too much information."

Hill walked to the side with the key, and at the same time reminded Ye Qing beside him to be careful.

Obviously, this imprisoned fox woman was not a good person either, which made Ye Qing have further speculations about her identity.

"Some time ago, we caught her in the palace. She was trying to assassinate His Highness, and she also had a lot of confidential information on her, so we locked her up here."

The procedure for unlocking the magic circle is quite complicated, and after inserting the key, there are still layers of verification. Hill also explained the cause and effect to Ye Qing at this time.

Taking confidential information and trying to assassinate Queen Fili?

Ye Qing frowned slightly. This was a bit too illogical.

"You also feel something is wrong, right? He was a spy who was gathering important intelligence, but he suddenly turned around and assassinated the emperor. This seems to be a bad choice no matter how you look at it."

Hill's expression seemed somewhat complicated as he recalled the night when this incident happened.

The whole thing was filled with a weird atmosphere from beginning to end, so much so that after catching the person and interrogating him, Hill realized that things were by no means that simple.

However, the second search in the palace did not reveal any human figures, and it could even be said that it could not be safer.

"Plus, she is the most beloved daughter of the fox chief. We have always maintained a good relationship with the fox tribe. The sudden occurrence of this situation can only mean..."

"It only means that the entire orc tribe may have ulterior motives."

Ye Qing continued with this sentence, looking at the fox girl in the cell with mixed feelings for a moment.

If Hill's speculation is true, then the cause and effect of the matter will be completely different from the previous plot line.

The orcs were severely damaged in the Highland War, and have not yet fully recovered after recuperation.

In the past, it was because of the appearance of the beast tide that made them mistakenly believe that this was the will of the Beast God, and therefore launched an attack on humans.

But now it seems that things are far from that simple.

When the cell door was completely unlocked, the fox woman also opened her eyes slightly.

"...I won't say anything. If you want to kill me, just go ahead and kill me."

After saying this weakly, the fox woman lowered her head again, as if she was exhausted.

But Hill still kept his distance from him and spoke calmly.

"Mang, your father has not submitted any documents to us yet. I think you are already the abandoned pawn. Why are you so stubborn?"

After these words were spoken, the fox woman named Mang laughed dryly twice.

This time she didn't even raise her head, but just kept her head down and kept talking.

"I've already said it, I was alone from the beginning to the end. My father and the others had nothing to do with this, so they certainly wouldn't risk coming to save me..."

"I'm afraid your beast god wouldn't think so."

Ye Qing waved his hand, indicating to Hill that he should try this for the time being.

Anyway, Hill and his team must have tortured him more than once, but they couldn't get any useful results.

Hill understood and took a half step back, letting Ye Qing stand in front of Mang.

"Human, what do you know?"

Mang raised his head, and his beastly eyes stared at Ye Qing fiercely.

"Haha, I know your Beast God better than you orcs. If you don't believe me, how about we make a bet?"

Ye Qing chuckled. Dealing with the orcs also depends on which type of orcs you are dealing with.

Judging from Mang’s reaction, she should be a person who has a fanatical belief in the Beast God.

In order to further confirm this, Ye Qing deliberately proposed a bet with her.

"What are you gambling?"

"If I win, you tell me the whole plan. If I lose, I let you go. How about that?"

When hearing these words, there wasn't even the slightest fluctuation in Hill's expression, not giving Mang any chance to find any flaws.

Chapter 52: Mission: Impossible

ps: Merry Christmas to everyone~

Mang snorted coldly, without looking at Hill behind Ye Qing, a sly smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Oh? How do you know whether I'm telling the truth or a lie? Anyway, you can't verify it if I give you false information, right?"

These words actually brought out the doubts in Hill's heart. She was unsure about the bet proposed by Ye Qing.

How can we ensure that what Mang said is true, and how can we be sure that she will speak?

Not to mention that Mang didn't believe that Ye Qing would let her go, although the person who could bring the Queen's confidant here alone was definitely not an ordinary person.
