Cross's words made Gawain speechless in embarrassment for an instant, and even lowered his head in shame, and after a long time, he held back a sentence, "I know." ”

During the night, Cross and his party arrived near Brookwood, where Cross and Lancelot said goodbye to Gawain and Nia, and the two of them dragged their heavy equipment toward Brookwood.

"Your Excellency Cross, did you conclude that Ximu Town would not be captured? ”

"It's not so certain, but there's a good probability that it is,"

"Your Excellency, by what do you judge?"

"Oh, Lancelot, are you interested in this?"

"Well, I think there's a lot to learn from Your Excellency, and I'm willing to learn from You. ”

"Hahaha. ”

"Your Excellency, why are you laughing all of a sudden?"

"I was right, you have a lot of potential. So, before we enter Brookwood, I'll tell you how I judge.

First of all, the geographical location of Ximu Town, it is in the northwest of Heishui Town, on the north bank of the Heishui River, and is located in a hilly area, and the transportation is very inconvenient, and the access to Ximu Town must pass through rugged mountain roads, such a geographical location is not much less strategic than Heishui Town.

Secondly, when Blackwater Town is captured by the rebels, Ximu Town will definitely get relevant information, as long as the lord of Ximu Town has a little brain, he will strengthen his defense, so that the rebels and the army of Seatta will not capture it, because, even if it is attacked, there will be great losses.

These are my personal judgments. ”

Lancelot was silent for a moment, and then said in surprise, "Ximu urgently needs to strengthen its defense now, then they will have a demand for our equipment, and by taking advantage of the other party's this, we can get more benefits through negotiations!"

Lord Cross, is this actually the real purpose of your request for equipment from William!" Lancelot couldn't help but raise his voice to show his admiration for Cross.

"Well, yes. Although Cross's answer was brief, he was surprised and delighted in his heart, happy that Lancelot did have great potential, and surprised that Lancelot did not look like a slave at all.

"But your Excellency, why don't you tell Lord Gawain about this, in that case, he won't be in a mood. ”

"If I tell him this, he will be very excited, and even if I don't let him come to Ximu Town, he will be driven by various factors to sneak into the town and follow the progress of the negotiations. If it does work out like that, the plan will fail. ”

“...... Your Excellency, you are really amazing!"

At this moment, Lancelot can no longer express his reverence for Clos in words, but Cross cares more about Lancelot's true origin.

"Lancelot, can you tell me why you became a slave? A slave like you is really rare, and it is not easy for someone to be able to deduce my true intentions so quickly, you are definitely not just an ordinary slave. ”

For some reason, Lancelot, who heard this, lowered his head, and then whispered, "Sure enough, you can't hide anything from Your Excellency, in fact...... I'm Seatta native. ”

"Oh!?" Cross was a little shocked, he had thought of many possibilities, but he never thought that Lance Fell was a Seatta native.

"When I was young, I followed my father, who was a merchant, to the Empire of Kerman, and we settled in Norman City under Klein, and not long ago, the Kingdom of Seyadha waged war against the Empire of Kerman, and captured the Castle of Faith, which never fell.

When William, the lord of Norman City, learned of this, he immediately arrested all the Seattas in the city and slaughtered dozens of Seattas, including my father, and teenagers like me were forced into slavery. Lancelot said, his head lowered.

"No wonder you look at yourself differently than other slaves, you really have your own beliefs. ”

"Your Excellency, actually...... I just want revenge, I just want to kill William. ”

"Oh, I didn't expect you to be so tolerant. By forbearance, Cross naturally refers to Lancelot's patience with revenge. Of course, it was not Lancelot's slavery time, but Lancelot's joy after Cross's friendship with William the night before. At that time, he was no longer under William's rule, and he was no longer a slave, and he had the right to express his displeasure with Cross's actions, after all, Cross was too close to his enemies.

However, Lancelot did not do that, and his level of forbearance was indeed beyond Cross's expectations.

Lancelot glanced at Cross, then continued to hold his head against his head and said, "Lord Cross, do you regret it now, do you feel that you were wrong about me at the beginning, in fact, revenge is the belief that makes me endure." ”

Hearing this, Cross couldn't help but smile slightly. Similar questions, isn't that what he asked Nia, how can a real bad guy say to others that he is a bad guy, the scene of the conversation with Nia suddenly appeared in Clos's mind, and he suddenly felt that this world is very wonderful, this wonderful world allows some wonderful people to meet, and then let them create a wonderful history.

Seeing Cross laughing, Lancelot asked suspiciously, "Your Excellency, what are you laughing at?"

"I laugh because I find out I'm just like you. Cross patted Lancelot on the shoulder, "Lancelot, your distractions hide your true heart, and I'm just like you, fortunately, I've found out now." ”

Lancelot stared blankly at Cross. He may not quite understand what Cross means yet, but one day, he will.

"Let's go, we have business to do. Cross turned and walked forward, and continued with his back to Lancelot, "You asked me if I regretted it, and my answer was no, I now have a friend who is willing to talk to me in the truth, and I have nothing to regret." ”

Lancelot still stood still, he watched Cross's back in the distance, tears falling from his eyes, he realized that he had fallen behind, he habitually wiped his tears with his hands, and then ran towards Cross.
