I'll also work hard to conquer the dungeon today.

Chapter 413, Section 1.26: A Message from Moa

Mu Yegui had just stepped out of the intelligence office with the golden apple when he heard a slightly exaggerated, pitiful scream coming from afar, "Mu Yegui!! Help!"

It was less like he was crying for help and more like he was trying to get her attention.

Moya came running from afar, casually dispatching the pursuers with his knife. His ruthless actions stained half the street red, but he seemed completely oblivious to the consequences.

"Mu Yegui!! I finally managed to escape from the castle, it was so hard!" Moya ran up to Mu Yegui, panting heavily, and kept complaining to himself, "These people are really awful. I spent nine months using all my brainpower to complete this dungeon, and they just sell it like that."

"Huh?" Mu Yegui blinked, looking slightly confused.

"Do you remember when I was investigating Fisch's background? I finally found out that the queens were not the same. The first queen was replaced by a twin sister after giving birth to the eldest prince, and then the series of events that followed began."

It really gives me the feeling of a thief crying "stop thief!" After the investigation results are released, you can choose to make them public or not. I was so angry and impulsive that I chose to make them public.

However, I forgot that Fisch was a ruthless monster, Princess Qin was a pervert, Tang Xiuna was a scoundrel, and Koya was a heartbreaker. Before I knew it, I was being hunted down. "Moya said, spreading her hands helplessly. She was reluctant to talk about why she was being hunted down.

Moya frowned and said, "Tang Xiuna deliberately kept me stuck in the dungeon, and even leaked and fed me wrong information, causing me to waste almost six months of my time. I've always said that Felna is a scumbag, and her man is just like her! It makes me so angry!!"

Although she was angry, Moya didn't seem to care much; she was just being sarcastic.

"Are they still chasing us?" Mu Yegui asked.

"I just killed the last wave of pursuers, so they should be gone, but their actions were too heinous. It's not like I wanted to expose the truth. If it weren't for the fact that this is a Crown Prince instance that I can't give up, I would have left in a heartbeat!" Moya was so angry that his liver hurt. As expected of an NPC, they were indeed quite unreasonable.

"Why are they hunting you down?" Mu Yegui was puzzled. Why were they hunting Moya down? If they revealed the truth, wouldn't that be breaking down and replacing the history of the fairy tale kingdom?

"About this..." Moya frowned, a hint of hesitation in his expression.

"What's wrong?" Mu Yegui asked softly.

“Actually…” Moya leaned closer to Mu Yegui and whispered in her ear, “I accidentally discovered that the Queen replacement incident was related to the Holy See of the Mysterious Kingdom, and even involved a dark ritual. Although it was said to be a twin sister, the Queen was still the Queen, only her body had been replaced.”

"A ritual?" Mu Yegui asked. Was this the same ritual she was investigating?

“I’m not very familiar with this. The reason I was being hunted down was because Tang Xiuna discovered me when I was investigating the ritual, and I was forced to choose to run away openly. If I had been a few minutes slower, I’d probably have been killed by Tang Xiuna by now,” Moya shook his head and said in a low voice.

The situation was so critical that I instinctively dropped the book and ran away.

Looking back now, Tang Xiuna's expression at that time seemed a bit strange. She felt that things weren't so simple, and that Tang Xiuna might have something to do with the ritual.

Of course, she wasn't referring solely to the ritual itself, since she knew perfectly well that the NPCs Tang Xiuna had become were unlikely to be connected to any ancient rituals. What she meant by "connected" was that it was related to the person behind the ritual. Perhaps Tang Xiuna was playing a double agent? On the surface, he was a lustful administrator, but in reality, he was working for some powerful figure in the Mysterious Kingdom.

This situation is not impossible. After all, if there were really no connection, this person would not have shown such murderous intent and wanted to kill her on the spot when she investigated the ritual.

"Is Tang Xiuna related to the person behind the ritual?" Mu Yegui thought of this as soon as he heard Moya's words.

"I'm just guessing, but I don't plan to come to the Fairy Tale Kingdom again. A prince's dungeon has uncovered a deeper secret, and even a simple discovery has turned the NPCs around me from friendly to hateful. It's just too terrifying."

Moya will never forget the time she was sitting on the floor of the library, engrossed in reading about the ritual, when the door was suddenly opened and she was attacked without a chance to speak.

It was so stimulating, my heart was about to jump out of my chest. If it happened again, she probably wouldn't survive.

"Do you remember this?" Mu Yegui asked, holding up the golden apple in his hand.

“A golden apple?” Moa frowned. “I think I’ve seen a similar pattern at Tang Shuna’s place, but as you know, apples or golden apples don’t exist in any other kingdom besides the Kingdom of the Mysterious. Anyway, I don’t know why, but apples just just won’t grow. However, this adds another piece of evidence that Tang Shuna is connected to the Kingdom of the Mysterious.”

"Do you want to go to the castle?" Moa asked again when he saw Mu Yegui staring silently at the golden apple.

"Yes, I want to investigate something." Mu Yegui nodded.

"The castle has Qin, Fisch, and Tang Shuna. Although I'm not worried about your abilities, it's still best not to let your guard down."

Fish has changed a lot, but he's still as unpredictable as ever. Jean looks delicate and frail, but she's not much different from Fish. Tang Xiuna's words were deeply hidden; I only truly saw through him at the very last moment.

Moya sighed deeply. He was really lucky to have been agile, otherwise he would have been dead. He still felt lingering fear when he thought about it.

"It seems laziness has already extended its reach into the fairy tale kingdom." A slightly cold voice came from behind, and Shel slowly walked over and said.

Moya froze for a moment, then instantly felt as if her legs were filled with lead, making it impossible for her to move. It was a terrifying pressure that almost suffocated her, leaving her with no thought of resistance.

"Will Dionysus go to the castle?" Mu Yegui looked up at the small-looking castle in the distance and asked slowly.

“If Tang Shuna were a lazy person, he would definitely send Dionysus to make contact with Tang Shuna,” Sher said calmly, although he felt that Tang Shuna was not so easy to control.

Laziness has always been a mysterious and unpredictable guy, and whether Tang Xiuna is really one of his people is still debatable.

However, even if Tang Xiuna pretended to be his man but was actually plotting to betray Lazy, that guy would definitely know it clearly, and might even be doing it on purpose so that Tang Xiuna would walk right into his trap.
