"Brother, why did you become depressed after completing the 521/'> mission?" Sa Qili came up and pinched my nose without being polite at all.

"It's all thanks to you that the Horadric clan was saved. If you were here alone and looked sad, everyone wouldn't be happy, right?"

"Elder Fan, if you don't mind speaking out if you have something on your mind, just tell us. You are the benefactor of our clan, and we will definitely do our best to help." Even Elder Leiton came over, his face flushed, maybe

I drank a lot of wine.

I glanced at everyone gratefully, but thinking of Princess Wannian, I sighed again and didn't know how to speak.

Under everyone's gaze, I hesitated for a long time and finally took out the Horadric Cube.

"Nana... I have already told everyone except Elder Layton about Nana, right."

Except for Layton, who looked confused, everyone nodded.

"Actually, I didn't tell you everything about that matter. It involves the secrets of the Horadric clan and Nana's personal privacy." After a pause, his eyes fell on the Horadric Cube.

"Then...then, don't mind if I tell you the whole thing."

"Whatever, although it is an unbearable past history. But there is no need to hide it. Let's take it as a warning." Princess Diamond may have noticed something, but her tone was calmer and calmer than usual.

If she doesn't mind, then I can feel free to say it.

"This is not the place to talk. Let's go somewhere else. There is another thing..."

Taking a look at the noisy square where thousands of people were celebrating joyfully, I shrank my neck with guilt and secretly glanced at Princess Diamond, looking depressed and cowering, just like a condemned prisoner who was about to step onto the execution platform.

Under the guidance of Layton, we came to a quiet room. Then, I told everyone everything about Princess Diamond, including the true origin of the Horadric Cube, her machine doll body, and the five loading parts.

.And the truth about the decline of the Horadric clan.

It took more than two hours, and the truth of history was revealed to everyone, especially Elder Layton, who was a Horadric. His expression was the most sighing, and his wrinkled face seemed to have heard what he heard.

After my dictation, the wrinkles became more numerous.

"I didn't expect that the truth behind the decline of our clan would turn out to be like this. God's will, God's will!" He stood on his crutches and seemed to have aged ten years for a moment.

"The past is in the past, and it's not your fault. Elder Leighton doesn't need to take it to heart. Now is the time for the Horadric clan to spread its wings again." I comforted and advised.

"That's right. As long as I still have this old bone, I will definitely not let our family decline."

It seemed that due to my words of comfort, thinking of the tribesmen who were about to escape from difficulties, and thinking of the infinite space for development in the future, Elder Leighton's face glowed again, and he seemed to be dozens of years younger for a while.

He stood up excitedly, walked around for a few steps, and suddenly came to the Horadric Cube, and solemnly saluted with the unique etiquette of the Horadric tribe.

"I didn't expect that inside the Horadric Cube, there would be an ancestor of our family, Her Royal Highness. It's really rude. Layton has met Her Royal Highness."

"Is it really appropriate? I am the culprit responsible for the decline of the Horadric clan." Princess Diamond looked at the other party silently and said softly.

"No, this cannot be blamed on Her Highness the Princess. Let's not say that this was not Your Highness's original intention. Even without this incident, according to the situation at that time, the decline of the Horadric clan would be a matter of time. How can we put the responsibility on you?

Woolen cloth?"

"Elder Leighton, just call me Nana from now on." Princess Diamond's voice was still very cold and flat, but you could feel the slightest touch of emotion hidden in it.

It turns out that Princess Wannian has been blaming herself as a sinner. I looked at her blankly, feeling a little guilty in my heart. Although I and Princess Wannian seemed to be barely ordinary friends, and

We were just ordinary friends who often quarreled and bickered, but I couldn't see such obvious negative feelings in her. I was still very unqualified as an ordinary friend.

"Brother, you just talked about Nana's machine doll body and five major parts, right?" At this time, Sa Qili, whose mind was spinning the fastest, seemed to have noticed something, and suddenly asked.

"Yeah, I said it."

"You said Nana's doll body is hidden in an ancient tomb in the third world, right?"

"Yes, I said so."

"Brother, I have a guess, could it be..." Her beautiful eyes flickered, and Sa Qili looked at me unblinkingly.

Under Sa Qili's repeated reminders, the others also turned around. Seeing that the two of us were having a hard time, Tulakov, the most impatient, simply took the lead and shook my shoulders and asked loudly.

"Could it be that the mysterious girl who appears in the monster army and can even command the ancient soulless card is the doll body of Princess Nana?"

The real owner is here, and I said so much just to bring the topic to this point.

Sighing, I nodded.

"Yes, that's exactly what happened. I didn't dare to confirm it at first, so I brought Nana up with me, and the result was just as everyone expected."

"This is such a coincidence." Everyone marveled.

Isn't it? It has been tens of thousands of years, sooner or later, but after Princess Diamond was rescued, her doll body also appeared in the third world, and then we happened to meet it again. It's simply

It's like making an appointment.

The probability of this happening should be less than one in a million, unless someone does it intentionally.

"So, who is the mastermind? Who is controlling Princess Nana's doll body?"

"Generally speaking, since the ancient soulless cards have to obey the command of the doll's body, then it must be Duriel's fault."

"But..." Elder Leighton hesitated, seemingly not appreciating this statement.

"Based on our dealings with Duriel over the years, it seems that it is not very interested in destroying our Horadric clan. Even one of its right-hand men, the ancient soulless Ka, has not come out of the ancient tomb for more than ten years.

It would be a bit abnormal to say that the doll's body was sent by it."

"Perhaps it was a whim, for example, because he was in a bad mood, so he controlled the puppet attack." Tulakov said while picking his ears.

"This is also an explanation." Everyone nodded and did not refute Tulakov's statement.

Humans are not machines, and neither is the devil. It is impossible for them to maintain absolute rationality at all times and act according to their own personality and preferences.

Therefore, you cannot fully estimate the other person's personality and preferences. You may have a whim, or be stimulated by something, or your mood may fluctuate. It is actually common for you to act contrary to your personality and preferences.

Perhaps, this is really just a random act by Du Ruier. This answer seems to be the most acceptable to everyone.

But thinking about the identity of the doll, I have a guess.

"Although what Uncle Tulakov said is reasonable, everyone seems to have forgotten one thing. Duriel is not necessarily the only one who can command the ancient soulless card, right."

"You mean..."

"Yes, it is said that the relationship between the four demon kings is very good. It may also be the order of the other three demon kings, isn't it?"

"Who do you think the newcomer is?" Everyone looked at me curiously, surprised by my sudden burst of IQ.

"Excluding Duriel, Andariel and Belial are both possible. There is relatively little information on Azmodan, so it's difficult to draw a conclusion. Let's focus our suspicions on the first two demon kings."

After a pause, I began to try to analyze: "The attack of the monster army led by the doll body is aggressive and fierce, pursuing relentlessly, without giving anyone any chance to breathe. This style is somewhat like Andariel, but, I

I think Belial is more likely, and the most important thing is that it is the body of a Horadric doll."

"Compared to everyone else, I may have dealt with Belial a little more often, so I know this guy better. This guy likes to use his power to play with people's hearts. The doll's body was hidden in the Horadric Tomb. Now that it has been found

, then it means that Belial knows that the body is related to the Horadric clan, and even with his wisdom and ability, he may be able to see that this body has some power of the Horadric clan."

Looking at everyone's eyes, I said word by word: "In this case, wouldn't it be interesting to use toys made by the Horadric tribe to attack the Horadric tribe? I think Belial is very likely to

Think of it this way.”

"It makes sense." After calming down and thinking about it, everyone kept nodding.

"And there is also strong evidence. Belial is good at mental power. Being able to control a puppet body without a living soul so powerfully is exactly what it is best at doing."

The more I thought about it, the more I realized that this was the case. This time the relationship was an innocent disaster, and it was probably Belial's fault.

At this time, Elder Leighton seemed to have received some information and turned back to us.

"The tribesmen who went to investigate have returned. According to intelligence, the ancient soulless card has never left the ancient tomb."

My friends and I were shocked at the time.

What the hell, Brother Card, there's no movement at all. Doesn't this make us look like fools, we have tried our best, and even let the entire Horadric tribe risk entering the Storm Canyon?

What he got in exchange was a yawn from the other party.

You look at me, I look at you, everyone smiles bitterly.

All the efforts were in vain because of this information. Everyone worked hard on the stage, even risking their lives, and prepared early, but the only guest did not arrive.

If I had known that the ancient soulless card would be like this, I would have just rushed forward and captured the doll. Why would there be so much trouble?

"But this just proves Elder Fan's guess just now, that it may indeed be Belial's conspiracy, so the ancient soulless card is passive and slow in its work."

Elder Leighton said this with some self-comfort. Among everyone, he was undoubtedly the one who felt the most deceitful and bitter after hearing the news.

"Yes, it's definitely not Duriel's order. Otherwise, if it did this, Duriel wouldn't skin it?"

Everyone condemned Brother Ka's behavior of betraying his teammates in anger.

"No matter who gave the order, the mission has been completed anyway. By the way, newcomer brother, since you have defeated the puppet, the body should be back as well, right."

The big-mouthed Tulakov didn't care about everyone's feelings at all. He cut into the topic with his broken voice like a sharp knife.

Especially me. Unprepared, I was stabbed with blood, and I looked at him with resentful eyes, wishing to tear his mouth to pieces.

"By the way. Body." At Tulakov's reminder, all eyes focused on him.

"This... I did get it back." I laughed a few times. I lowered my head with a guilty conscience, not daring to face these eyes, especially Princess Diamond. I felt that her eyes were even hotter and everywhere, constantly tormenting me.
