At first, Link didn't have to care about the Yabba race since the Orida Fortress was in danger . However, he vaguely felt that something was wrong .

He felt that Aymons sealing off information from the Black Forest not just to prepare for the final attack . Aymons was probably taking advantage of the humans' fear of the Divine Gear to secretly attack the Yabba city .

If the Dark Elves had powerful magic muskets and airs.h.i.+ps in the last battle, it would be a disaster to the Orida Fortress and the entire Norton Kingdom!

This worry meant that Link had to find out about the Yabba race's current situation .

He waited patiently in the forest for half an hour . The screaming winged demons finally left . They didn't go toward the northeastern Black Forest as he'd expected and flew northwest instead .

This meant that they probably had another mission, which increased Link's worry .

"Let's go take a look," he whispered .

Skinorse led the way, and Link followed . The two of them used the forest's vegetation as protection and snuck past the still-burning airs.h.i.+p frame . The fire had weakened quite a lot, and they didn't feel the heat beside it .

Walking up to a Yabba corpse, Skinorse started studying carefully . "This Yabba man is wearing an engineer coverall . He's probably an engineer . There's an emblem here of blue wings and gears . Master, do you know what it is?"

Link thought back to the previous game and quickly found the corresponding information . "The wings and gears mark should be the emblem of the City in the Sky, Pollol . The Pollol City is one of the Yabba's important cities . They're especially skilled in creating magic airs.h.i.+ps…This situation is bad . Continue searching for clues . We must know what's going on . "

Skinorse nodded . He circled the airs.h.i.+p and checked every corpse .

There were a dozen bodies of demons on the ground . Other than the hard-sh.e.l.led armor that only demons had, they had nothing else so Skinorse and Link couldn't find out anything other than what kind of demon they were . There were seven or eight Dark Elves . All of them had an emblem on their armor of a moonflower wrapped around a b.l.o.o.d.y sword .

"These are members of the elite Dark Elf air force, the Wings of Moonlight . Why are they here?" Skinorse's voice was filled with shock, and the worry on his face deepened . It was clear that he'd thought of something .

After searching for a while longer, he suddenly called out, "Master, look, this Yabba man has a hidden letter . "

The letter was very deeply hidden inside an inner layer of the corpse's clothes . The demons had searched this body before but just couldn't find this letter .

This showed how skilled Skinorse was . His acuity was almost like gut instincts, and he could easily find critical clues .

He handed the letter to Link . It had the same City in the Sky emblem, but there was no magic seal, so there was no obvious magic aura . Opening the envelope, he took out the letter, but it was white . There was nothing on it .

"A blank piece of paper? Why would he hide it so secretively?" Skinorse was watching, and he found it strange .

"It's not blank . " Link shook his head . Every enchantment Magician was almost instinctively sensitive to the elements of the material . Link was so as well . The moment he received the letter, he felt that there was something about it hidden .

"Element Detection . " Link cast a Level-1 enchantment spell .

Ding . A ball of powdery light appeared out of thin air and sprinkled onto the letter . Something miraculous happened .

There really was writing on the blank piece of paper . Because of the different material, it absorbed the element detection powder differently as well . Words appeared on the paper instantly .

The letter was written in the Yabba language . Skinorse was illiterate, but Link could read it, so he read it out loud in the human language .

"Respected human general, my race has suffered violent attacks from the Dark Army . We don't know how many there are, but from the current situation, there seems to be more than 30,000 soldiers . Half of them are demons . Our city is in extreme danger . Practically all the civilians in the nearby towns have been killed…Lariel is on the brink of danger as well…I ask for your reinforcement as chancellor of the High Mountain Council . "

This was a letter for requesting reinforcements . It was written to Duke Abel of the Orida Fortress .

Link looked back at the airs.h.i.+p . From the damaged frame, he could guess that this was not the main airs.h.i.+p that the Yabba race used . Instead, it was an extremely fast airs.h.i.+p for sudden attacks . It was longer and narrower than the ones Link had once made . There were fewer magic muskets on it as well .

It was obvious that it had burst out of the siege to ask for reinforcement but still couldn't escape from the Dark Army .

The more Skinorse thought, the more shocked he became . "No wonder there was no action from the Black Forest these days . I can't believe they were attacking Yabba cities without us knowing . They must want to receive their magic muskets and battle airs.h.i.+ps!"

Link nodded and said, "There's still not enough written on the letter . Let's follow the trail and see if there are any Yabba survivors . "

The Yabba airs.h.i.+ps had come under fire long before they crashed . They had been exploding as they flew and lay scattered on the ground . The trail was obvious .

The two followed the visible airs.h.i.+p parts everywhere and went northwest . After around one mile, they reached a large patch of thick gra.s.s . Skinorse suddenly stopped .

"Master," he whispered . "I feel something wrong . I think someone's on us . "

Link felt it as well . The opponent had some odd trick that allowed him to see through Link's Traceless spell . However, Link didn't feel much danger despite having eyes on him .

After thinking for a moment, he said, "It should be a Yabba survivor . If I'm not wrong, his magic musket is pointed at our heads right now . "

"Having their magic musket pointed at my head…doesn't feel good . " Skinorse's handsome face had a wry and uncomfortable smile .

In Firuman, the dwarves were the first to invent the magic musket . The dwarves and Yabbas lived in a mountain range, and they often traded with each other . The magic musket was powerful but didn't require much physical strength so the thin Yabbas grew to love it . They developed the weapon and created many powerful muskets . With it, they became known for their musketeers in the mainland .

In Firuman, "having Yabba muskets pointed at one's head" had become an idiom that meant absolute death .

On the other hand, Link was searching for the Yabba . After around three seconds, he shook his wand, and a sesame-sized dot of light flew out soundlessly .

Buzz . With a light sound, the spatial sphere expanded, successfully restricting the target 150 feet away . Then firelight came from behind the gra.s.s . The musketeer had fired subconsciously at the shock .

Sadly, it was useless .

"Let's go . He's over there . "

Skinorse had rushed over already . He saw two Yabba people hiding in the gra.s.s—one man and one woman . The man was covered in blood and unmoving on the ground . The woman was half-kneeling, a musket with a scope propped on her knee, aimed at where they had been .

Of course, these two people were no longer a threat . They were restricted by the spatial sphere and were so slow they were basically frozen .

In that strange s.p.a.ce, Skinorse saw something extraordinary .

He saw a beautiful flame bloom from the muzzle of the Yabba woman's musket . Inside the flame, a spinning bullet flew forward bit by bit . It looked so slow, but the bullet was able to produce rings of ripples in the air .

It was beautiful .

Master Link's spell is unbelievable, he thought, impressed .

Link walked over as well . Seeing the two people, he observed them and said, "The man is too heavily wounded and pretty much bled out . He can't be helped . If the woman doesn't treat her leg wound, she won't live for more than three days . "

As he spoke, Link activated a Soundproof Barrier and canceled the spatial restraint .

The Yabba musketeer's movements sped up, but the musket's sound was muted within the Soundproof Barrier . Link then canceled the spell .

"Who are you?" The musketeer's face was b.l.o.o.d.y and full of vigilance . She wasn't dumb—when she spoke, she aimed the musket at the ground .

Link introduced himself . "I am Link Morani, the lord of Ferde . As you can see, I am a Magician . "

Skinorse introduced himself as well . "I am the famous wandering vigilante, Skinorse…uh, hey, are you listening to me? Why are you crying? Am I that awesome?"

Before he could speak, the Yabba musketeer gaped at them and tears started streaming out of her bright eyes .

"Master Link, our city is destroyed . " Ignoring Skinorse, the Yabba woman choked out, "The Dark Army invaded the City in the Sky and killed everyone in sight . My father, mother, and brother were all killed . They even ate my brother…They're all dead . The city is in a sea of fire . My home is gone . "

Who was Skinorse? She didn't know, but the lord of Ferde, the most powerful human Magician, Link, was known throughout the continent . Link worked with the Yabba race often and Elin, the Lady Fortuna, spoke highly of him as well . All Yabba people were familiar with him .

In their eyes, Link was powerful, fair, benevolent, kind, wise, and basically everything good .

At this time, the Yabba musketeer had just experienced the biggest tragedy of her life . Seeing a strong figure she could rely on now, her tense feelings collapsed, and she broke down sobbing .

Skinorse had been disappointed at first but listening to her, he fell silent too . He'd only joined the army recently, but he had experienced too much tragedy already . He thought of the comrades who had died in the Northern battlefield, thought of their last cries, and thought of the rookies crying hopelessly before the demons .

He also remembered how in one mission, he had a smart girl as his subordinate . Her name was Lily . She had deep blue eyes and a pretty cherry-like mouth . She really liked Skinorse; she would run after him, asking questions, and called him "brother . " She gave herself to him too . At that time, Skinorse even wanted to marry her .

But in the Black Forest, she was ripped apart by a Fear Demon . Her head was torn off, and the beautiful thing rolled to where Skinorse was hiding . The two deep blue eyes stared at him listlessly as if asking why he didn't save her .

Skinorse felt his eyes grow hot and his vision blurred .

"I'll go see if there's anything around here . " He wasn't willing to cry before the others . With that utterance, he turned around and started investigating around .

Link couldn't escape . He had to take up the role of a kind elder now . Patting the musketeer's shoulder, he said, "It'll get better . Everything will get better . Now, I'm going to treat your wound . Tell me what happened in detail, alright?"

"Yeah . " She wiped her eyes and nodded .
