"What are you thinking? Malthus. Seeing that Malthus was silent, Monlisa couldn't help but ask, "Shall we leave immediately?"

"Immediately?" Malthus shook his head as if awakened, "No, no, our army can help Simon set off first, but we ourselves will have to slow down. In this way, presumably Simon has nothing to say. ”

Realizing that Malthus had bad intentions again, Montlisa smiled ugly and asked, "Why?"

"In the Battle of the Crying Basin, you said you didn't see Charlotte, right?" Seeing Lisa Mon nod, Malthus continued, "You also said that Charlotte and Willett used illusions to break into the Crying Prison, and they hid from several master banshees in charge of guarding them. Don't you think it's strange that your race is supposed to be highly resistant to minds and illusions, but don't you think it's strange that they have hidden from your master banshees?"

At first, Meng Lisa really didn't think so far, but when she heard Malthus say it at this moment, she was suddenly shocked, "What do you mean...... Charlotte is a legend?"

Lisa Meng inadvertently told the truth of the matter. But Malthus groaned slightly, and out of practical considerations, he vetoed Monlisa's speculation.

"No, it's too unlikely. The last time I fought him, he was still a master of the eight rings, and although Charlotte was very talented, it was impossible for her to cross two levels in just two or three years. Malthus's analysis seems plausible, but it is the opposite, "The only possibility is that Dinah of Icewind Castle has made a move, in other words, Icewind Castle has interfered in the internal affairs of the Soul Seat." ”

Hearing him say this, Meng Lisa also felt that her idea just now was too whimsical. After all, in that encounter, although Claire showed strong strength, it was only at the top level of the master level.

She asked, "So you're going to let Simon test the other party's depth first?"

"Exactly, if our guess is correct, the Abomination could be a trap set by Icewind Castle. Malthus gave Mon Lisa an appreciative look, "Mon Lisa, you send your banshees to inform Sergei, the plague dragon, and Marley, the king of bones, that we have just guessed them. If Icewind Castle does meddle in the internal affairs of our Soul Seat, then they have no excuse to stay out of it. Ah, by the way, please Chris (Sky City Legend) also act with Simon, if the Sky City mage is also lost there, then in the future, we can also use the hatred between Rivadeo and Icewind Keep to gain more leeway. ”

Marveling at Malthus's strategy, she nodded yes and turned to choose her subordinate as an emissary. After it left, Malthus sneered and looked at the glacier scenery, and said to himself, "If you grasp this opportunity well, you may be able to solve the three major competitors in one fell swoop! Do you think Icewind Castle has any deterrent effect on us now that Sylvia is missing?"

Malthus analyzed the situation with common sense and was clever enough to settle the three contenders once and for all, and then drag Rivadeo, who was already at odds with Icewind, into the vortex in order to deserve a roundabout after winning.

His plan seemed flawless, but in reality, his analysis based on speculation was so wrong that it turned out to be the opposite of what happened.

On the other side, Claire, Ramsay, and Villelet lead the elite forces of the Lich and Bloodclan to ambush in a must-pass on their way to the Abomination. Just now, they saw Simon and a mage suspected to be a legend of Sky City leading an endless army through the area.

"Now it's up to Charlotte. ”

"Hopefully he'll be able to withstand the pressure. ”

"The only thing to do is to pray that Malthus will come over soon. ”

At the time, they were hoping that Charlotte would show tenacity.

However, in the anxious waiting, they saw the development of events that made them gasp. Because then, instead of waiting for Malthus, they waited for the army under Malthus's command to pass through this area. This startled Claire, and the pessimistic inference that the plan had failed flashed through her mind.

He is so pessimistic for the following reasons.

The choice of the Abomination as a breakthrough at the beginning was a crucial factor in addition to Ragnard's IQ problem.

That is, the Abomination is located to the east, while Simon's stronghold is close to the Abomination, and Malthus's stronghold is to the west of Simon. Therefore, in terms of timing, Simon will definitely arrive in the Land of Abomination before Malthus.

At that time, as long as Charlotte can show tenacity to hold Simon back, it will make Malthus misjudge, and the latter will most likely abandon his slower men to support Simon alone in order to complete the battle. At this time, Simon has been entangled by Charlotte, and Malthus's command is too late to support, as long as Claire can take advantage of the time difference to execute the decapitation tactic, she can avoid the disparity in combat power and win in one fell swoop.

But now, not only did Malthus not leave the army behind as expected, but what was even more alarming was that he did not show up at all.

"The plan has changed!" Claire's usually calm face changed color when it was confirmed that there was really no trace of Malthus in the army, "Malthus has detected our plan!

Wellett was also panicked, and she was about to order the retreat of the elite who had laid an ambush, but was stopped by Ramsay, who was more calm.

"Don't panic yet, what's our plan? Isn't it just to disconnect Malthus from his forces so that he can execute the decapitation tactic?" Ramsey then offered a different opinion, "Although it is different from the expected situation, but if you think about it, isn't the current situation more favorable for the decapitation tactic?"

Ramsey was right. Although things have changed, the current situation is indeed more favorable for decapitation tactics than the plan was conceived at the beginning.

Because according to the initial plan, Malthus's army had not yet entered the battle when the decapitation operation was carried out, considering that Malthus might retreat while fighting and his army would definitely accelerate reinforcements, it is optimistically estimated that the time left for the decapitation operation may only be about ten minutes.

Killing a supported Legend in 10 minutes is not easy. On the other hand, if Malthus's army is also held back by Charlotte, it is indeed more beneficial to the decapitation operation from the perspective of time.

But here's the point......

"But Charlotte's side will not only face Simon, but also Malthus's army!" Claire said solemnly, "Master Ramsay, can you rest easy?"

"It's okay, doesn't my head still have that power?" Ramsey blinked.

Claire knew he was referring to the Death Reset, but she didn't expect Charlotte to even tell him this, "But that power will have side effects." ”

"Of course there is, and it's very serious. Ramsey nodded solemnly, his expression suddenly light, "But the chief of my family is not stupid, didn't he say in advance that if the situation is not good, he will run away? ”

"That's ......," Claire muttered.
