Chapter 728 The Unexpected Visitor and the Canary

"By the way, where is Ritsuka?"

After Yishi's reminder, everyone suddenly felt a little strange. Why did Fujimaru Ritsuka not appear now?

Izumi frowned and said:

"Is that guy still sleeping in?"

However, Mashu did not answer everyone's questions immediately. Instead, in front of their surprised gazes, she suddenly took action and grabbed the winged lion floating in the air!

"etc……!"

The winged lion suddenly felt something was wrong. It didn't expect that the other party had no intention of reasoning with it at all. It was about to say something, but before it could finish, Mashu forcefully closed the magic book again and quickly threw it into the storage space of the shield.

After doing all this, Mashu felt a little relieved, and then she explained to everyone:

"The senior is talking to Mr. Hissle, and the conversation involves some issues related to the Winged Lion."

"And Hisil...?"

Yaad was a little surprised, and then asked hesitantly:

"But is he really able to communicate normally in his current state?"

Mashu smiled and replied:

"Mr. Hissle seems to have regained some of his sanity today. He was the one who took the initiative to ask to have a conversation with the senior."

"Eh, really?!"

Yaad's eyes widened instantly, and he seemed to be very concerned about this matter. At the same time, Chilchak raised his hand and said:

"I would like to ask, what do you mean by 'problems with the winged lion'?"

"Is such that……"

Matthew told everyone what happened in their room last night and some of the things Hisser said this morning. Everyone looked at each other and involuntarily recalled the discoveries that Hisser had shouted about yesterday.

"Could it be that there is really something wrong with the Winged Lion?"

Laos's question expressed everyone's thoughts, and after realizing this, their eyes towards the magic book in Mash's hand changed, with a hint of doubt and vigilance.

Although there is no substantial evidence, from both a rational and emotional point of view, they are more willing to believe Fujimaru Ritsuka and Mashu who have helped them all the way, rather than the winged lion that suddenly appeared halfway.

Although Fujimaru Ritsuka and the others also have many secrets hidden in them.

Malucier tightly grasped the staff in her hand and said nervously:

"In that case, should we seal it again first? I have also memorized the sealing magic that Hisser cast on it before, so I should be able to try to reproduce it..."

"no!"

Izumi objected subconsciously, frowning and saying:

"Without the Winged Lion, what will we do with our problems?!"

Senxi looked at her and said:

"But if the other party really has bad intentions, I'm afraid he won't really help us solve the problem, right?"

"...Tsk!"

Izujinmei was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized that this seemed to be the case. She spat irritably and said:

"Then it's up to you."

On the other side, Falin guessed:

"But, could there be some misunderstanding? How about trying to talk to Mr. Winged Lion first?"

"Well, that's a possibility."

Mashu nodded in agreement with Falin's guess, then smiled and said:

"As for this matter alone, I think it would be better to discuss it after Senior and Mr. Hissle have finished talking. And now, we may need to welcome the upcoming [Canary] first."

……

[Canary] is a force established by the Western elves, specifically responsible for dealing with maze-related issues. Winged Lion had previously reminded them to be careful of the other party, but from the current perspective, maybe the target of [Canary] is actually Winged Lion.

However, the arrogance and dominance of the Western elves have long been deeply rooted in people's hearts, and they are also worried that the other party will arrest them as the Winged Lion said, so they still have to be careful in dealing with them.

To be on the safe side, Malucel took Farin and Itsuzumi to hide in the library first. The three of them were all related to ancient magic, and they were not sure whether the other party would make trouble because of this.

With such mixed feelings, the remaining people came to the outside of the cabin to prepare to welcome the other party's arrival. Not long after, they noticed that the bushes in the direction of the entrance began to shake.

"coming!"

Everyone instantly perked up their guard, staring intently in that direction. After a while, a figure really walked out from the bushes, but the moment they saw the other person's appearance clearly, they couldn't help but be stunned for a moment -

"...Mr. Cabrel?"

The visitor was none other than Kabul, who had spent some time with Fujimaru Ritsuka and his team and had followed Kikuro's team to the fifth underground floor.

"Ms. Mashu, and Mr. Laos...?!"

Seeing their figures, Kabul was also stunned for a moment. At the same time, Mashu quickly noticed that there was a black raven standing on his shoulder. If nothing unexpected happened, it should be the one they had seen before.

After being surprised, Laos reacted and asked in confusion:

"Why are you in a place like this? Where are your teammates?"

"It's a long story..."

"But it must have been very difficult to get here. You must have worked so hard!"

As the two sides approached each other, Laos shook the other's hand enthusiastically and confirmed that the other party seemed to be a real person, not a shapeshifter.

"Thanks, but I'm fine."

Although it was a bit strange, Kabul could not care about this problem now. He looked at everyone and said:

"In fact, there are some people who came here with me and I would like you to meet them."

As soon as he finished speaking, the raven on his shoulder suddenly flapped its wings and flew up, heading towards the entrance at the back. On the other side, everyone couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts about the person he was talking about.

Mashu asked tentatively:

"Mr. Kabul, the person you are talking about is the Canary?"

"You already know?"

A hint of surprise flashed in Kabul's eyes, and then he moved closer again and whispered:

"Then I won't introduce them any further. Anyway, they are here for this maze. Also, please be careful when talking to them. Don't let them know that you have used ancient magic before."

"——?!"

Hearing this, everyone looked at Kabul in shock. If they remembered correctly, the only people who knew about the fact that Malucel had used ancient magic should be Kikuro and Itsuzumi who was eavesdropping, right?

Could it be that……?

Kabul knew what they were thinking and continued in a low voice:

"Mr. Kikuro did not leak the secret. This is my own deduction. And please rest assured that I am on your side."

Although the other party said this, they still had many questions in their hearts.

But at this moment, the bushes at the entrance made a rustling sound again, and then a group of elves with outstanding appearance walked out.

There is no doubt that they (they?) must be the legendary "Canary".

Seeing their presence, the other party did not seem too surprised. After walking straight over, the elf walking in front asked Kabul:

"Are they the adventurers you're looking for?"

While asking, the other party looked at them with a scrutinizing gaze, making everyone unconsciously feel a little nervous.

At this time, Mashu took a deep breath, took the initiative to stand up, and introduced herself with a smile:

"Hello, my name is Mash Kyrielight. Thank you for all the hard work in getting here."

"If you don't mind, please go inside and talk in detail."
