“So, I have enough reason to suspect. They’re not carrying out a stealth mission. We really lost contact with them!” 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

After a short pause, Zelda’s chest heaved up and down. She said seriously, “Great Prophet, we must investigate this matter thoroughly!”

Zelda’s expression was extremely serious when she said this.

Obviously, Zelda was still very concerned and responsible for the elven hunters who had suddenly disappeared.

When Su Ming heard her words, he first nodded, then leaned back in his chair. The expression on his face became slightly serious.

“The last time they contacted the other teams, where were they? Did they say anything special?”

Zelda seemed to have thought of something when she heard that. She said, “After their team went missing, I felt that this mission was too dangerous, so I had the other two teams withdraw.”

“Looking at the time, they should be reaching the elf town soon.”

The moment Zelda finished speaking, someone knocked on the door again. Su Ming and Zelda looked at each other. Zelda quickly said, “Come in!”

The door was pushed open from the outside.

Two relatively short but muscular elven hunters walked in from the door.

When they saw Su Ming, surprise and shock appeared on their faces.

Once they came to their senses, the two of them quickly bowed and said, “Great Prophet, you’ve come?”

“Great Prophet.”

Su Ming waved his hand, signaling for the two of them to not be so reserved.

The two of them finally relaxed. They turned to Zelda and addressed her as commander.

Zelda nodded, and her expression became serious.

“Captains, since you can see the Great Prophet here, you should naturally know why the Great Prophet has come.”

After hearing Zelda’s words, the two captains looked at each other and saw the solemness in each other’s eyes.

He turned to Zelda and the two of them nodded. “Commander Zelda, we understand.”

When Su Ming heard this, he stood up from his seat and walked up to the two of them. He said slowly, “Since you’re all clear about this, I won’t say any more nonsense.”

“I’ve sent you to investigate the Vast Flame Kingdom because they’re very likely to become a powerful enemy in the future. This is a knife to our heads.”

“That’s why we’ve sent your three elite teams to investigate the situation.”

After a slight pause, Su Ming’s tone became even more serious.

“However, what I don’t understand is, what exactly did you encounter that caused you to lose contact with an entire elite squad?”

When they heard the anger in Su Ming’s voice, the two of them shuddered at the same time. They looked at each other, then the shorter team leader took a step forward and spoke.

Su Ming saw the name above his head. It was Dick.

Once Dick walked out, he first bowed toward Su Ming before he spoke again.

“Lord Prophet, of course we know the importance of this mission, so we have been very cautious from the beginning.”

“In this case, we even abandoned the traditional way of investigation and changed to contacting each other every eight hours.

“However, just as we were about to approach the Vast Flame Kingdom, we suddenly lost contact with the squad.”

“We didn’t expect such an unexpected situation at all. After another eight-hour cycle, they still didn’t contact us. We could only report this news to the valley.”

“They’ve been out of contact for more than 24 hours.”

As Su Ming listened to his words, he found that some of the information matched what Zelda had just said.

However, there was still some information that was revealed in his narration.

“You just said that they suddenly lost contact when they were close to the Vast Flame Kingdom?”

Hearing this, Dick immediately nodded. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

Su Ming frowned slightly and asked again, “The last time they contacted you, how far away were they from Vast Flame Kingdom? Are there any other forces of power nearby?”

When he heard Su Ming’s words, a contemplative and reminiscing expression instantly appeared on his face.

After a long while, he spoke again, “After we lost contact with them, we also went to investigate the situation in the vicinity. However, we didn’t find any traces of any forces in the vicinity.”

“As for the place where they disappeared, it should only be around a hundred kilometers away from the borders of the Vast Flame Kingdom.”

Su Ming narrowed his eyes and asked, “Is there anything special about the Vast Flame Kingdom’s territory?”

When Dick heard Su Ming’s question, he frowned and thought about it for a while before he said, “Actually, after he went missing, we also went there to investigate the situation, but we didn’t find anything special.”

“Great Prophet,” Dick continued, “do you think that this team saw that they were not far away and was in a hurry to complete the mission? In the end, they exposed their tracks and were captured by the people of the Vast Flame Kingdom?”

When Su Ming heard Dick’s guess, he exchanged a glance with Zelda, and their expressions changed slightly.

In truth, based on the current situation, the situation that Dick had described was the most likely to happen.

However, teasing Su Ming did not seem realistic.

No matter how he looked at it, there was a strange sense of hopelessness, and he did not dare to make a judgment so easily.

However, it was just like what Dick had said.

There weren’t any other powers nearby, and it was so close to the Vast Flame Kingdom.

The only suspicious target he had was the Vast Flame Kingdom.

When he thought of this, Su Ming could not help but feel a headache.

Su Ming looked at the two team leaders who were still looking at him and waved his hand in resignation.

“I know, you guys can leave first.”

...

When Dick and the other team leader heard this, they had originally planned to go out directly.

However, the moment he turned around, he seemed to have remembered something. He turned around to look at Su Ming and asked, “Then, Great Prophet, do we still need to continue with our mission?”

When Su Ming heard this question, he was first stunned, then the expression on his face became even more helpless.

“No need, no need. You guys wait for orders.”

Hearing this, Dick nodded and left Zelda’s residence with the other Captain.
