Chapter 679: 481. Silver-haired woman, Lin Da ‘dead’?

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, one could see the Black-armored Knights approaching majestically.

Lin Da took a deep breath and gradually relaxed his body.

The mysterious Light Rank was what they were searching for, but it had nothing to do with him.

He guessed that this group likely had little hope; they would go through the motions, ask a couple of questions, and that would be it.

But, a woman caught Lin Da’s attention.

The floor-to-ceiling window was one-way glass; those inside could see outside, but not vice versa.

Among that solemn and stern group of Black-armored Knights, there was a woman wearing a light blue dress. Her attire resembled that of a civilian and stood out starkly among the knights.

The woman was about 1.7 ters tall with her face covered in a white veil, and her silver hair, flowing like moonlight silk, lightly fell across her pronounced hips.

Lin Da couldn’t sense any Magic Power from her, and she seed to be a completely ordinary person.

Why was she mingling with the Judgnt Knights?

Lin Da thought suspiciously.

It wasn’t long before the squadron of Black-armored Knights arrived downstairs.

“Directly under the Royal Capital, this is my badge; you can inject Magic Power to verify it.”

A knight wearing the “Sacred Tree and Crown” badge said in a cold, hard voice.

“How should I address you?” Lin Da confird the badge was genuine and then allowed the Black-armored Knight inside.

“You can call Captain Leo. A na is just a aningless code; please answer the questions truthfully.”

At a wave of his hand from Captain Leo, twelve Black-armored Knights surrounded Lin Da and his companions.

The mbers of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team had already been instructed by Lin Da to act compliantly.

As arranged by Captain Leo, each person was taken into a separate room for individual questioning.

In the living room, only Captain Leo and the silver-haired woman remained.

She sat on the couch, her back straight, her hands seemingly casually placed on her knees, yet poised in a stance most suitable for drawing a sword, easily suggesting that she had undergone combat training.

Lin Da: “Captain Leo, who is she?”

“You don’t need to ask about things that don’t concern you.”

Captain Leo said with a stern face, “Where were you last night, and what were you doing?

I heard that the Luanwei suffered a major defeat on the 20th floor?

Did you enter again the next day?”

Lin Da answered one by one.

He was then asked many more questions.

Lin Da had been aware of the Black-armored Knights’ impending visit and had dealt with the situation thodically as planned.

Ten minutes later.

The mbers of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team were brought back to the hall by the Black-armored Knights.

They shook their heads at Leo, seeming to have extracted nothing useful.

Actually, Leo himself also knew that it was unlikely to involve Lin Da.

A Light Rank could not conceal their aura from them. Leo himself was a Light Rank Adventurer, and he had determined the mont he saw Lin Da that this was a Moon Rank unrelated individual.

This interrogation was rely to comply with the command from the Royal Capital.

“If there are any issues later, we will inform you. Also, a reminder to stay safe lately; the Heretics have been active quite frequently; they too are after the mysterious Light Rank.”

Leo’s deanor softened a bit.

After finishing, he respectfully approached the silver-haired woman and whispered, “My lady, it’s ti to move on to the next location.”

The woman, facing Lin Da’s direction, seed lost in thought and did not respond to Captain Leo.

Actually, Leo also didn’t quite understand the woman’s identity, his superiors had only sent an urgent command stating that she would temporarily take over in the Southern Baihong Region.

She must be a Young Lady from the Royal Capital. With such power, even the Judgnt Knights were under her control, not sothing he could afford to offend as a re captain.

Leo patiently repeated, “My lady, we have completed the search here; we should move on to the next place.”

At that mont, Lin Da pretended to be busy, flipping through an adventurer’s book. Although he seed to be browsing, ninety percent of his attention was on his surroundings.

As Captain Leo finished speaking, the woman suddenly pointed at Lin Da: “Are you ‘Dark Shadow’ Dai Lian?”

With a voice as cold and thin as moonlight, the detachnt in her tone was palpable.

Even though her face wasn’t visible, everyone in the living room could guess that her appearance was likely not lacking.

However, the question asked by the woman was indeed quite bizarre.

Captain Leo, the group of Black-armored Knights, and Lulu and her comrades, all paused for a mont.

What kind of out-of-the-blue question was that?

Wasn’t the Judgnt Knights here to find the mysterious Light Rank?

With a few coughs to shift the focus, Captain Leo reminded her, “My lady, the person you ntioned has been off the radar for three years; I believe he was killed by the Demons long ago.”

As a native of the Royal Capital, Leo naturally knew the once notorious ‘Dark Shadow’ Dai Lian.

The man standing before him as the captain of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team, aside from a similar build, resembled Dai Lian in no other aspect.

Leo chuckled, “Are you also a fan of Dai Lian? Then let tell you, you are mistaken.

Dai Lian’s eyes lacked ‘light.’

Even the Legendary Adventurer ‘Cold Moon Fire’ Evelyn believed Dai Lian to be a puppet born for battle.

But as you saw during my questioning of the Phoenix Tail Flower captain, this is a gentlemanly and cooperative citizen, willing to assist with the investigation.”

“—Yes,” Lin Da said, his expression distant.

Hearing this, Captain Leo showed a ‘just as I thought’ expression.

The mbers of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team also breathed a sigh of relief, fearing Lin Da might accidentally reveal the truth.

“Hmm, it seems I guessed right,” the silver-haired woman said, stroking her chin thoughtfully.

And for the following monts, the living room fell into a silence as deep as death.

What did the captain of the Phoenix Tail Flower Team just say?

Captain Leo’s heart skipped a beat.
