I don't know how long it took for Catherine to recover from that strange state. She felt that she had been between wakefulness and stupor, and she seemed to have said a lot, but she had no memory of what had been said.

Catherine raised her hand tiredly and rubbed the back of her hand against her forehead a few times. At this time, a steady stream of powerlessness came out of the body like weeds in the cracks of the bricks. Catherine's mind was a little dizzy, and she wished she could lie down and get a good night's sleep right away.

But the next moment, her head began to hurt again, as if countless thin needles were stuck in her head. Catherine pressed the sides of her head and squeezed hard.

"What's going on?" asked Catherine as she opened her eyes, realizing that she had kept her eyes closed. But even when she opened her eyes, she couldn't see anything clearly, and her eyes were hazy and foggy.

"As, Fee. Catherine asked again, "Where are you? What's going on?"

"Sit down. As's voice rang in Catherine's ears, but it sounded a little cold.

Catherine squinted to the left and right to see Ace and Ferry sitting on either side of her. Each of them sat in a large, comfortable back chair. Catherine saw that there was also a chair behind her, and sat down slowly.

"Why do I feel so tired?" Catherine asked As, rubbing her eyes, in a whisper.

"You stood there and talked for half an hour, can you not get tired?" As's face was stiff, or rather expressionless.

"Really?" Catherine patted her cheek, "what did I say?"

Ace raised his eyebrows, but did not answer.

Catherine didn't understand how this Asa was so weird. So she turned her face and asked Feeley, "What's wrong with your deputy leader?"

Ferry Fee's face was also not very good, he shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Captain, although I am mentally prepared, the affairs of Mosi Town will not be simple. But I didn't expect that the royal family and His Majesty the King were so deeply involved. You're right, it's better to keep these secrets than not to know them. ”

"What the hell did I say, did I tell you?" said Catherine, with an ominous premonition.

"Well, what should be said, what should not be said, what I know, what I don't know. As's voice was deep and hard.

"Ahh

"Stupid female mage, in the Paradise of the Brave, the gray realm makes it impossible to hide anything about memory. Once a gap has been opened in your mind, they will be able to dominate your consciousness at will. The goblin scholar, who had disappeared for a while, reappeared in full view of everyone, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he reprimanded.

After the goblin scholar finished training Catherine, he turned to the executive committee not far away and said, "You outcasts, your usual method is to induce others to give up their spiritual resistance. What a fair deal, a good promise, shameless! How could that priest be in danger if it wasn't for your paradise of the brave?"

"Ah, old professor, you're here again. It turns out that you are the twelve toes, do you have twelve toes?" Fei Shuang, who had been silent for a long time, screamed nervously, she seemed to be bored again, "Hey, old professor, did you verify your mirror conjecture in the gray field just now? I thought you'd be in that broken space and never come back. ”

"It's not that I erased the spatial node, it's that I couldn't hold that spatial node for long, it collapsed on its own. Bila had a long face, her pointed chin almost like a sword stuck in the ground, "There's also a spatial door at the entrance of the town, and Mr. Professor can come back from there." Please pay attention to your words, Honourable Third Commissioner. ”

"I will not be surprised that you outcasts have done any bad deeds. Goblin scholars did not accept Bi's explanation. On the contrary, in the evaluation of "bad", he rarely maintained the same opinion with Fei Shuang. It's just that the scope delineated by the old professor is obviously much broader than Fei Shuang's bad taste psychology.

"Dear Professor Twelve, please forgive me for not recognizing you earlier. I really can't imagine that you will come back from history and continue the great encyclopedic record of this world. However, as the greatest goblin scholar on the continent - past, present, and future - I always want you to see things fairly and impartially. Your wanton and strongly personal comments are seriously contrary to your objective spirit. Lady Visy waved her hand slightly, and a tall, long-legged high chair appeared beside the goblin scholar, the size of the chair was just right for the old professor's figure, "Fortunately, I understand your feelings, so I hope you will maintain the demeanor of a scholar from now on." You don't have to come and go all the time, you can just sit with us and have a good conversation. ”

After Mrs. Vicie greeted the old professor, she looked at the three of Catherine, "All right, Master Catherine, I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you on behalf of the corner city. Your narrative is truly an eye-opener for us, and the story of His Majesty the King is truly wonderful and unexpected. ”

Mrs. Vicie's smile was kind and kind, but it had become an indescribable annoyance in Catherine's eyes. The female mage was in a terrible mood at this time, and As's cold attitude made her realize that some of the truths she had concealed had seriously hurt the feelings between the two.

Catherine was remorseful. If she understood the words of these listeners correctly, then the secrets of His Majesty the King should have been unreservedly announced by her in the uncontrolled situation just now. This may also include some of her personal agreements with His Majesty the King.

But what made Catherine more troubled than His Majesty's betrayal was that Ace must have thought she was being used by her, especially in the early days of the Chur Mercenaries.

Catherine wanted to tell As, she really couldn't help herself. Well, at least after the earthquake in Mosi, she had a chance to tell Ass the truth, and even had a chance to refuse two private missions from His Majesty.

It's just that without the excellent completion of those two private missions, the Kuhl Mercenary Group would not have been able to gain a foothold at No. 17 West Main Street in the days that followed. Because it is a famous and upscale neighborhood of the royal city, it is located right on the middle line of the royal palace and the church temple. The Kurish mercenaries have set up their base on West Street to show that they have chosen a neutral choice between the king and the pope.

But Catherine knew very well in her heart that if His Majesty had not turned a blind eye, their life on West Street would never have been easy. This was a special consideration given to Catherine by His Majesty, but Catherine could not explain this to As. After all, it had not been a few years since Ace had been in the royal city, and he could not understand what His Majesty meant in the royal city.

Anyone who has studied the history of the kingdom knows that since the founding of the kingdom, His Majesty who sat on the throne has been inferior from generation to generation, and the royal power, which symbolizes the supreme power of the world, has become shaky. Of the nine provinces of the kingdom today, there are probably less than half of the provinces where His Majesty can communicate his will smoothly. But in the royal city, perhaps only in the royal city, the majesty of royal power has never left.

Every inhabitant of the royal city has an almost instinctive reverence for His Majesty. Just think of the Supreme God's spokesman on earth, the great and divine leader of the church, His Excellency the Beloved Pope, who can only be called "His Excellency the Pope" in the royal city. Because there was already a Majesty in the palace of the royal city, the pope, who was outside the royal city and was revered by the faithful as "His Majesty the Pope", also had to maintain a helpless respect for the pinnacle of secular power.

In short, in the past two years, the Kur mercenary group seems to be able to walk a tightrope carefully between the king and the pope, but in fact, it is only His Majesty the king who allows them to go.

If one day His Majesty the King wants Catherine to make a choice, then the Kurid mercenary regiment will only be able to serve the kingdom. Or if the Kurid mercenary group really turned to the Pope, then His Majesty had countless ways to raze 17 West Main Street the next day.

In a sense, Catherine had always maintained a tacit understanding with His Majesty the King, a tacit understanding that was not written or explained without any words. Sometimes Catherine even thinks that the reason why the Kurish mercenaries were able to maintain neutrality between the king and the pope was probably deliberately done by His Majesty the king in order to ease the Pope's heart. It's just that the purpose is difficult for Catherine to figure out.

"I'll explain, when we get back, I promise. Catherine muttered to Ass quietly. It's a pity that the deputy head of the group didn't seem to hear Catherine's words, and his eyes looked at the goblin scholar without blinking, not knowing what he was thinking.

Catherine sighed secretly, now is really not a good time to solve the problem of the private relationship between the two people, because the mercenary group is facing the biggest crisis since its establishment.

That Lady Visie was really hard to deal with, and so far, the three of them had no way to resist. If it weren't for the goblin scholar who came with him somehow, and gave the mercenary group some seemingly unfamiliar help from time to time, the three of them wouldn't have been able to sit here intact.

How much can a goblin who has turned into an undead help? Judging from the situation in Mosi Town, Catherine believes that it will be difficult for them to survive the third level.

"It's all to blame on this damn mission. Catherine pulled the secret letter from her bosom. If it weren't for the fact that it was sent to the Brown Moon Altar, how could the mercenary group be in a situation where it was almost destroyed?

Catherine looked at the secret letter in her hand, and her eyes slowly became firm. She stood up suddenly. Both Ace and Ferry noticed Catherine's unusualness, as well as the secret letter in her hand.

"What are you doing here, Captain? You don't think—" Ferry seemed to guess something.

But before Ferry could finish speaking, Ace grabbed the words directly, "Catherine, you can't!"

"My life is almost gone, what else can't. Catherine ignored the two members and took two more resolute steps forward.

"If you do that, our mercenary group will have to be disbanded. Ace stepped forward to stop Catherine's path, "We're not at the point of despair. ”

Ferry stood up nervously and walked quickly to Catherine's side.

"Not in the time of despair?" Catherine smiled dismally, her gaze swept over Ass and Feeley's faces, and finally rested on As's face, "The anvil has left us forever, and Green Wind has gone nowhere, and even Ferry has almost died." Don't you think that's hopeless enough, can we make it through the third hurdle, can we still have the luck we just had?"

Ace didn't answer with a calm face, his brow furrowed abruptly. Catherine pushed away the silent man in front of her, "Actually, what I'm going to do now may not be able to save us." I really shouldn't have taken on this damn task in the first place. Alas, I was really a failure as the head of the regiment. If you are still the commander of the regiment, then let me try to exchange this mission for our lives. ”
