Thus, he also clearly knew which NPCs within Ironforge City had not been triggered by anyone and which ones were suspected to trigger high-level plots.

This had brought him too much convenience.

Now that he had the token from the City Lord Manor, it was even more convenient to interact with the NPCs, and he could chat with them more or less.

His strolls were not without purpose—along the way, he gathered many pieces of intelligence that he had not known before.

As for being shadowed, Leonard paid it no mind.

The package in his hand was a hot potato, destined to be discarded after leaving the city; attracting attention was intentional.

Instead,

What he cared more about was the plot itself.

To obtain the Holy Grail, an A-tier quest was far from enough.

He even felt that the quests related to City Lord Moissanite might not even make contact with the Holy Grail.

Therefore, to find the Holy Grail in the Alternate Dimension, one would certainly need some unexpected lines of thought.

The only piece of intelligence known to be related to the Holy Grail was the Enlightenment’s hint of “rumors of the Holy Grail’s emergence.”

The question Leonard sought to clarify was, what was the source of this rumor?

Following this line of thought, he had asked some soldiers in the city.

But the information he obtained was very limited.

Though it looked like he could trigger some quests with rich Contribution points, none of them had anything to do with the Holy Grail.

Almost no one even knew that the White Robe Magician, Gandalf, was in the city.

Or perhaps they were keeping it secret and not disclosing anything.

Later, Leonard changed his approach.

He changed his questioning targets.

No longer was he looking for high-tier officers.

Instead, he specifically asked some lowly figures related to the life of the City Lord Manor, such as horse groomers, cooks, and maids…

After all, VIPs would not have the same standards of living as these rank-and-file soldiers.

Even if the NPCs didn’t talk, the details would betray the truth.

With this questioning, Leonard indeed discovered some clues.

Ironforge City was an arsenal stronghold, and the consumption of food and lodging for the soldiers was recorded in detail.

Starting from five days ago, the standard of food for the City Lord Manor was ridiculously high.

Too high for Ironforge City’s Lord Moissanite to indulge in such luxury.

And magicians usually practice austerity. The more powerful the magician, the lower their requirements for food and lodging.

From this, Leonard speculated that there might be a VIP hidden in Ironforge City, someone with a higher status than the White Robe Magician Gandalf.

And since he knew Gandalf was a court magician,

Someone with higher status than him was rare throughout the entire Delaney Kingdom.

Leonard felt that this VIP might be the key to the Holy Grail!

However, that VIP had not appeared, and the secrecy was well kept, leaving Leonard with no way of knowing the exact situation.

And soon, the one-hour rest period would come to an end.

This time, a thousand people entering the Alternate Dimension were divided into dozens of reconnaissance teams, each leaving the city.

Now, they had to complete the already triggered B-tier quest, ambushing the Demon Clan’s Red Robe Shaman.

Previous explorations were mostly probing attempts by Cannon Fodder Hunters, but this time many experts had come. If they could locate the target, the B-tier quest was eighty percent likely to be completed.

As for Leonard, he quietly hid within a scout team of Ironforge City NPCs and followed them out of the city.

…

Outside Ironforge City, the surroundings dimmed.

The direction of the NPC team Leonard followed was southwest, heading towards Bourbon City, three hundred kilometers away.

The environment was complicated, surrounded by mountains and vast Dense Forests.

After walking only a few kilometers, the lights of Ironforge City had disappeared behind the hills.

All around, coniferous pine trees towered dozens of meters high, with a cold wind blowing through them.

The air was filled with the scents of terror and darkness.

Recalling the details of the military map he had seen in the City Lord Manor, Leonard walked while positioning his location.

The intelligence had suggested that this area already had sightings of the Demon Vanguard.

However, Leonard knew that what he currently had to face was not the Demons, but those who followed him.

Sure enough.

Without any warning, a “whoosh” “whoosh” “whoosh” of whizzing arrows started sounding in the forest.

Before the NPCs could react, they were shot dead by the hidden assailants.

Leonard reacted quickly, dodging the crossbow arrow that was aimed at his thigh.

In a blink, dozens of shadowy figures had already circled him.

However, during that brief confrontation, the NPC team leader who was still struggling was also killed.

Seeing the sharp actions of the assailant, Leonard knew it was a Third Tier card master.

Just by looking at the clean and efficient tactics, he guessed they were the elite of the Lionheart Family.

Without using the Tyrant Body Secret Method, without flying knives, and not having transformed into a Werewolf, Leonard, merely a regular elite within the Second Tier card masters, naturally could not avoid a thorough beating.

Within a few moments of the ambush and a brief exchange, Leonard was cornered against a large tree in the forest, with no escape.

With blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, he coldly eyed the group of well-trained individuals, all wearing gas masks, and feigned ignorance, “What are you trying to do?”

His disguised identity was arranged by Tracy Garcia’s mother, and the Lionheart Family’s people obviously had reservations about attacking him.

The most important thing was that they would certainly want to know what quest he had undertaken.

So, they would definitely leave a survivor.

Just then, one of the encircling people, seemingly the leader, spoke out, “Tell us what quest you’ve taken on. Speak up. We’ll spare your life.”
