After everyone said their piece, Leo then turned to look at Elvis as he ordered, ”Elvis, begin investigating Willis now. Nightingale will come along with you to lend you a hand,”
”Yes, Guild Leader Leo!” Elvis and Nightingale nodded their heads before quickly leaving.
”How about me?”
”How about me?”
Both Iasiah and Elmont asked at the same time.
”The three of us will investigate the soldiers, specifically those soldiers who are assigned nearby the bridges to the castle,” Leo replied, he quickly asked, ”Brother Elmont, do you happen to know of any place that will give us a full view to all the bridges around the Evergreen royal family's castle?”
”There,” Elmont pointed at the highest tower of the Evergreen royal family's castle.
”Let's quickly go over there before it's too late,” Leo said.
”Okay!” Iasiah and Elmont nodded their heads.
”Come, I know a shortcut,” Elmont said as he opened another secret passage.
Leo and Iasiah can't help becoming a bit surprised seeing another secret passage in the training ground. Just how many secret passages does Brother Elmont hide in this place? And what are the purpose of all of these secret passages?
Such a thought though only lasted for a brief moment as the two of them quickly followed after Elmont.
The reason why Leo was in a rush right now to go towards that highest tower that Elmont had pointed at is because he wanted to intercept a message, specifically a report of information about him.
During lunch, Uncle Elfin had mentioned his real name in the presence of Willis. Of course, Uncle Elfin didn't do it on purpose, but rather because he doesn't know that Willis is a secret member of the Naughty Elves organization in the Evergreen royal family's castle.
Since that's the case, then Willis would definitely look for his accomplices in the Evergreen royal family's castle to send a report to the Naughty Elves organization about his real identity.
As it would be so suspicious of those accomplices would leave the Evergreen royal family's castle right now, they would most likely choose to use a messenger, such as a Messenger Pigeon, to send the message.
And where else could be the best place to send a Messenger Pigeon aside from the nearby bridges to the Evergreen royal family's castle.
The only problem though, the bridge that they have traveled to enter the Evergreen royal family's castle a while ago wasn't the only bridge leading towards the castle. There are a total of four bridges, specifically located at the north, west, south, and east. And the bridge that they have traveled before was the northbridge.
It's impossible for the three of them to choose one bridge to observe each as there are four bridges. That's why they can only look for a high place that will give them a full view of all four bridges.
Soon, Leo and the others finally arrived at the highest tower in the Evergreen royal family's castle.
Just like what Elmont had said before, they were indeed able to have a full view of all of the four bridges from the tower.
Along the way, Leo had already informed Iasiah and Elmont about what they should be looking for. So, the moment they arrived at the top of the tower, they immediately began observing the soldiers who are stationed on top of the walls facing the four bridges.
Actually, Leo could have used his Wind Elementals in this situation to have a much better method to observe the soldiers. But, as he doesn't want the Evergreen royal family to know about his unique capability of summoning Elementals, he could only choose to personally observe the soldiers.
”Iasiah, come here and look at what that soldier is doing,” Leo called out to Iasiah as he pointed at a soldier who came down to the lake. With his current cultivation level, he can't quite see what exactly is that soldier doing from his distance. But he was still able to see that soldier acting so suspiciously by looking at his surroundings every now and then.
Following where Leo is pointing at, Iasiah soon described, ”He's just the same as the other soldiers except for the fact that there is some kind of turtle following behind him,”
”That should be a Carrier Turtle! We use Carrier Turtles for easy transfer of material from the castle to the surrounding land of the lake. They could travel fast underwater and we could also use their turtle shell as a chest to put materials inside. That soldier should have put the letter inside the turtle shell!” Elmont exclaimed.
”F*ck, with how huge the lake is, it would be next to impossible to intercept that Carrier Turtle!” Leo can't help swearing after knowing about the Carrier Turtles.
If it was an aerial Magical Beasts, then Iasiah could just simply fly and chase after it. But, in the case of water Magical Beasts, even if Iasiah could swim fast with his 7 Star cultivation, it would be extremely difficult to chase after the Carrier Turtle in the water. That's not all, his vision and movement would also be restricted underwater.
”Wait...” Leo immediately thought of an idea, ”Iasiah, quickly bring me down towards that soldier!”
Without asking for the reason why Iasiah immediately carried Leo as he flew down.
”Wait!” Elmont could only jump down from the tower in order to follow after them. He used the wall of the tower to slide down and support his landing to the ground. He's still a 1 Star Mage, so he's still incapable of flight, that's why he could only do it the hard way.
Down below, Angel, along with both Princess Tifa and Princess Tila, immediately noticed Leo and Iasiah flying above them.
