Chapter 243, Tatara
As a large number of Hines knights arrived at the "front base" from the mist carrying supplies, Li You finally breathed a sigh of relief.

After leaving half of the people as guards, Li You did not continue to stay in the frontline base.

Instead, he greeted Qin Lang and others and continued to move towards the interior of "Isaac City".

No matter how you look at the task of "Finding Todora", there is something wrong with it.

Perhaps Qin Lang and the others embraced the "mission system" with surprises.

But Li You doesn't see it that way...

As it stands today, it is obvious that "darkness" is not what Su said.

Whether it's the "fog man" or the "mission system"... Su didn't understand anything at all.

It is evident that in this last "age" the darkness has undergone some unknown change.

Li You didn't know whether this change was good or bad for the chosen ones.

But that didn't stop him from planning for the worst.

……

Along the broken road, Li You led a large group of people and quickly returned to the "auxiliary gate" they had found before.

After passing through the tunnel-like doorway, Li You stopped in his tracks temporarily as he looked at the large buildings around him.

"Ok?"

Seeing Li You who stopped suddenly, Qin Lang and the others, who were walking among a large number of Hines knights, were stunned.

Not sure why I chose to stop here.

"Search around..."

After Li You's order was issued, a group of knights quickly broke into pieces and dispersed into nearby buildings holding torches.

Searching the surroundings with a second-order action didn't waste too much time.

However, within two to three minutes, the knights reappeared from nearby buildings one after another, and there was no sound of fighting during this period.

"No abnormality..."

"So, is the 'Fog Man' just an exception?"

Touching his chin and pondering for a moment, Li You divided the six knight squads he brought out into two.

Two teams responded to the troops from left and right and deployed near the "tunnel" they had come from.

In any case, for the time being... this tunnel-like doorway is the only way for Li You and the others to leave Isaac City.

Otherwise, Li You and others will take the risk of climbing the city wall.

Even if the backup force had brought enough ropes, Li You didn't want to take the risk.

Who knows what is waiting for them above the city wall?

After leaving the guards behind, the large army that continued to advance moved forward along the wide road in the city of Isaac.

Along the way, the buildings on both sides of the road hardly changed much.

Under the light of the "searchlight", everything revealed a kind of deathly tranquility.

It is impossible for the knights with strict military discipline to make any unnecessary noises during the march.

For a while, apart from the metal sound of armor rubbing against each other and heavy footsteps, there was no other sound in the team.

Qin Lang and the others marched in such a "serious" environment, naturally shrank their necks, and did not dare to continue to whisper anything.

Just kidding, the group of knights around is in the vague perception of several people.

They are all "big bosses" who can kill ten of them one by one. It feels... like needles are pricking them all over their bodies.

It made several people's hairs stand on end.

In this case, Qin Lang and the others really have no intention of chatting at all.

"It's getting closer..."

As the team turned a street corner, Li You's footsteps gradually slowed down.

According to the guidance of the "Mission Beacon", their mission target "Duoduoluo" is in the large building not far from the street.

Compared with the surroundings, the building where "Dodolo" is located occupies a very large area, and even the entrance...is obviously different from the surrounding buildings.

There are many carriages of different styles parked at the door over there.

It's just that the animal power responsible for pulling the carts was not found in front of these carriages.

"This is it!!!"

Feeling the strong induction of the "Beacon" in their hearts, Qin Lang and others also looked up.

If there is no accident, "Dodoro" should be here.

Seeing Li You stop, several people couldn't help casting their earnest eyes on Li You.

"Mission system", this "new system" that no one has discovered in the fog.

Now... just waiting for them to uncover the mystery with their own hands!

After hesitating for a moment, Li You nodded slightly at Sally beside him.

"Spread out and search around!!"

In terms of familiarity with Li You, in the entire foggy world, Sally is No.1 doing her part.

Immediately, he gave the order loudly.

A group of Hines knights were not unmoved by the fact that it was Sally who gave the orders.

Instead, they stepped on dense footsteps and scattered into the nearby fog as a small team.

When the last team was advancing towards the interior of the building with "STG-44" in hand, Li You looked back at Qin Lang and the others behind him.

"Wait a minute, I'm not sure what will happen. If you encounter a battle...you guys, be careful!"

After all, without waiting for the reply from Qin Lang and the others, he just took big steps and followed the knight team that had just entered towards the interior of the building.

"No danger is perceived..."

Following Li You through the unusually tall front door, Sally's face was full of vigilance.

His fingers never left the trigger of the "Oerlikon 20mm machine gun" on his back for almost a moment.

"This looks like a large hotel."

After stepping into the lobby of the building, Li You took a "portable strong searchlight" and swept around it.

What you can see, explain the neatly arranged wooden tables and chairs.

Obviously, this should be the dining area of ​​the hotel.

"The target is upstairs...search for him!"

This time, Li You did not give Sally another chance to "pass the order", but directly issued the order loudly himself.

"Ready to fight!!"

Following the roar of several knight captains, a group of Hines knights put away their "STG-44".

Instead, they drew out their long swords and raised the shields behind their backs.

Go up quickly along the two spiral staircases behind the counter not far away.

Obviously, knights also have their own unique views on the use of firearms.

Inside such a narrow building, guns... are not as reassuring as their usual long swords and shields.

"This……"

Seeing the large group of knights rushing upstairs, Qin Lang and the others looked at each other in dismay.

Isn't our task just to come and deliver something?
Why are you still killing me?
But a few people spoke lightly, and they didn't dare to speak at all at this time.

He could only watch helplessly as a group of knights in blue and black armor disappeared at the end of the spiral staircase.

Immediately afterwards, with the sound of heavy and dense footsteps, a large cloud of dust began to continuously fall from the ceiling above everyone's heads.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

"There's so much dust here..."

Amidst the coughs of Qin Lang and others, there was an unclear muffled sound coming from above.

"found it?"

Raising his head, Li You looked in the direction of the sound through the ceiling where the dust was still falling.

With his pseudo-third-level hearing, he could clearly hear... This was the knights upstairs, breaking down the door.

And, only that one was broken.

After that, the sound of footsteps above his head suddenly stopped.

After a few seconds, it rang again.

Only this time, the footsteps were moving in the direction of the stairs, and the speed... also became relatively slow.

"Wow, let me go, let me go!!"

Before Qin Lang and the others recovered from their daze, a voice that sounded ridiculous came from the direction of the spiral staircase.

"A dwarf, a dwarf...or a child?"

Looking at the little man in the green robe who was held under the armpit by a knight captain, a hint of doubt quickly appeared on Li You's face.

Judging from the voice, the little man in the green robe didn't look like a child.

And in this world, there has never been a legend of a "dwarf".

"Master Li You, this is the only living thing upstairs."

Throwing the "little man in green robe" to the ground very impolitely, the knight captain patted Li You's breastplate and continued to report:
"In addition, there are a large number of corpses upstairs... It seems that they have just died!"

"The deceased are not the chosen ones, but are the same...'alien species' like this little man."

Not paying attention to the very fashionable term in the mouth of the captain of the knight, Li You's eyes were fixed on the little man kneeling on the ground at this moment.

At this distance, Li You could already clearly see the appearance of the little man.

Just as he thought before, this little man in green robe...is not human at all.

"Dwarfs?"

Look at the other party's long pointed ears, but a very magical long nose.

Li You searched his brains, and could only come up with such a description.

"Wuuuuuu, respected master, please don't hurt Tatara."

"Totara is a good hand at work and knows a lot of manual work!!"

Maybe it was because the eyes of a large group of Hines knights were too cold. After screaming a few times, the dwarves on the ground begged Li You for mercy.

"Oh? Are you Tatara?"

Ignoring Duodoro's begging for mercy on the ground, Li You waved his hand and took the "Love Bento" from the knight behind him.

"Totara, this love bento is yours, right?"

While speaking, Li You had already thrown the small package in his hand to the dwarf on the ground.

"Ah! Is it my sister's package?"

Totara, who was still begging for mercy on the ground, was taken aback when he saw the "love bento" thrown in front of his eyes.

As if he had forgotten even his fear, he blinked his bright eyes and stared at Li Youdao:
"You guys, have you seen my sister?"

"..."

"These things will be discussed later."

"We want to leave this thing in your hands!"

"Have you confirmed that you have received this 'Love Bento'!"

"..."

"Huh? Huh?"

Looking at Li You with a fierce face, Dotara clutched the small package in his hand, and his eyes even became slightly moist.

"You, are you going to give this back to me?"

"But have you seen my sister?"

Dodolo's crying expression made Li You's face darken.

He never expected that the "task goal" of himself and others would be so difficult.

In other words, this "mission system"... is a bit wrong.

"What's going on... Obviously the package has been handed over to him."

"Why hasn't the mission been completed?"

Squinting his eyes and scanning his surroundings, Li You nodded to the knight captain on the side.

"Bring back the package!"

"Ahhhh!"

Seeing that the knight captain started to snatch the package in his hand, Dodoro on the ground screamed like a pig being killed.

Obviously, he didn't want to return the package to Li You.

"..."

Not far away, Qin Lang and the others stared wide-eyed, unable to understand Li You's operation at all.

"What is Li You doing here? Why are you still grabbing the mission props back?"

Wu Mao finally couldn't restrain his complaints, but was stopped by Qin Lang's slight shaking of his head.

"There is a problem with this mission..."

Qin Lang said, his face became ugly.

"Just now the package has been handed over to this little dwarf... But our task has not been reminded to complete."

"Don't you think there's something wrong with this?"

"..."

"Good guy!"

Amidst the exclamations of Wu Mao and Zhen Le suddenly realized, Ai Qingqing also said in a serious voice:

"The current situation...either there is something wrong with the mission itself."

"Or, that little guy on the ground... I'm afraid it's not our 'mission target'."

On the other side, Dotara, who was forcibly robbed of the package, was sitting on the ground crying like a real child.

"Aside from this, there's no life upstairs?"

After staring at Duoduo who was crying on the ground, Li You's face became even uglier.

"No more, but there are more than 30 corpses...the death time did not exceed one day at most."

"..."

Just as Li You was thinking with a bad face, Sally on the side helped him continue to ask.

"When you found him, was there a light on it?"

"..."

Hearing Sally's question, several knight captains glanced at each other, then shook their heads and said:

"No, when we went up, it was pitch black..."

"This little man has been in one of the rooms, making some... strange noises."

"..."

"Strange sound?"

The knight captain's report made Li You frowned slightly.

"What was that sound, and what was he doing in there?"

"..."

"The sound seemed to be some kind of strange murmuring... I have never heard anything like this before."

"After we broke open the door and rushed inside, the sound stopped automatically."

"It's perfectly normal to find his room! There are no blood stains, secret passages or any suspicious traces!"

"As for this little guy named Tatara..."

As the knight captain spoke, his expression became strange.

"He was sleeping in it ... he didn't seem to notice us until I picked him up from the bed."

The knight captain's report was very comprehensive, and he basically answered all the questions Li You wanted to ask first.

"Suspicious whispers?"

Hearing this, Li You couldn't help but feel his heart skip a beat.

In some of Blue Star's previous fantasy works and folklore.

"Suspicious ravings" usually represent some kind of "ominous thing".

In this foggy world, there is no reason to be different...
