Sure enough, there is nothing better than an ambush in the mountains and in the darkness of the night.

The facts in front of me proved that my thinking was more or less naïve. I had always thought that we could avoid being attacked by the Lord Regent as long as we didn't go to the canyon that the Lord Lord had set up for us, and in fact I was wrong.

In fact, the hint could not be more obvious, the town was so empty only because of an illusion that the regent had created for me. He made me think that we could get through this dangerous place without going anywhere but the canyon, but it was clear that I was wrong.

It's a very open plain, and it's lush everywhere. It's clear that we're out of the drylands. It would have been something to be excited about, because we were finally out of that peculiar place. Not long ago, when we first set foot on this land full of life, I even wanted to shout briskly and gallop. This is probably the most lush place in the eastern part of the Dammoth Empire, because on this great plain, I can see the outlines of several cities, yes, cities. It's not at all the same city I've been in the province of Arimaya and the small towns I've just left in the arid lands.

I still remember Reading always smiling on that sunny day: "This is the richest place in our empire after the capital, and the domain of one of the most loyal ministers to His Majesty the Emperor. But after all, he is just a vassal king, and there is no way to break into the circle of imperial power. “

"You mean, there are people in this empire who are as stupid as you?" I laughed, "doesn't he know that there is no way out of the old emperor who is getting duller?"

Reading smiled awkwardly, "Ma'am, I understand what you mean. But the Prince will never be able to stand in opposition to His Majesty the Emperor. Because he is the younger brother of His Majesty the Emperor. “

I didn't speak, but Firestorm interjected with a wicked smile, "Old man, I think what you said should only exist in the call. And far from being present in this fact. “

Redding's smile froze slightly: "Do you want to say that the Prince will betray His Majesty the Emperor? You have to know that he is ... ”

"Let's go, let's go. I think what you're going to say is that this prince is the younger brother of the old emperor, and he won't betray his own brother, right?"

Redding nodded, and was about to say something, but was robbed of the topic by the fire storm again: "Old man, it seems that although you are at least a lap older than me, it seems that this does not make you smart." Nothing is eternal in the face of power. As long as that prince is not as dull as the old emperor, then he will not hesitate to choose to cooperate with the regent. “

"You, how dare you talk like that!" Redding was furious, walked up to Firestorm, and said word by word, "Listen, I don't know who you are, but you imagine family affection too fragile! You will never understand the importance of family affection! Otherwise, you wouldn't be what you are now!"

"Okay, okay. "Surprisingly, Firestorm didn't continue the argument, which didn't seem to be Firestorm's style. Redding, seeing that Firestorm no longer had the need to argue, was convinced that he was right. It's just that Iron Mountain suddenly made Reading understand what Firestorm really felt at this time. "Lord Reading, if you still have any impressions. Then I want to tell you that the real name of Firestorm is Andrei III. And I, the captain of his guard. “

Andre III, who would have chosen such a strange name? I was confused, but Redding's expression froze in an instant. "You mean, he's Andrei III, the deceased king of his brother's kingdom of Datan, isn't he dead?"

"Obviously you're asking a very stupid question. "Firestorm, no, it's time to call him Andre III. His expression was very strange, and although there was a clear smile on his face, it was not at all clear that he was happy. "Not only do I know what the affection between a king and a prince is like, old man, but I am also a witness of such nightmares. If it weren't for Iron Mountain, I wouldn't have been alive at all. Look what my dear brother is doing, and it only took him two years to make the kingdom part of the Danmoth Empire. You should be very grateful to him, after all, he has given you a rich land. It's not as rich as here, but you see, it was originally my land!"

Reading didn't seem to hear Firestorm's words clearly, and the expression on his face could be described as colorful: "However, that was a full thirty years ago, and I was only thirty or forty years old at that time, and I was still trying to continue to climb up!"

"Yes, thirty or forty years. Firestorm laughed weirdly, "But that's for you, and it seems to me that I've only been two years since that incident. “

"What do you mean?"

Firestorm still looked at him strangely, then nodded at Iron Mountain, allowing him to answer the question: "Firestorm means that we have found a place to take refuge. But when we came out, we realized that time had passed so much without us noticing. I think in layman's terms, there's a peculiar ability to slow down the flow of time in the place where we're hiding. I don't think you want to know how complicated the process is, but we don't have a way to explain it to you. I'm just a captain of the guard, not much of an academic. “

Everything that was happening in front of me was something new to me, and I didn't think about interrupting this wonderful conversation, and as I expected, after listening to Iron Mountain's explanation, Redding's face was full of disbelief. "No way, there's never going to happen like this in this world, so I think it's absolutely impossible. You're just lying to us in the name of Andrei III. ”

Firestorm pulled a green stone out of his pants pocket. I don't know what this is, but Reading seems familiar with it. "How is this possible? How can the national seal, which we have never found, be on you?"

"Because, I am Andre III! The reason why I have searched for this national seal is to remind me of the profound lessons of my relatives who trusted me too much in the past!" Firestorm's smile was completely gone. "Now, what I want to tell you is that the reason why I told you that the prince has betrayed you, and that betrayed the old emperor is not just my plan for him, but there is very clear evidence. ”

After that, Firestorm stopped talking. This strange group became unusually awkward at this time, until not long ago, when we met men sent by the Lord Regent to hunt us down in this plain.

Seeing thousands of enemies, Firestorm finally spoke: "I said, old man, don't believe too much in family affection. Maybe in ordinary people, family affection will be an extremely rare thing, but in high-level people, family affection is just a thing that is under use. “

Redding was ashamed, he didn't believe it had happened. He turned to look at me, "Ma'am, what are we going to do now?"

I didn't answer him, for I thought it was strange that the sun was now high up, and it was clearly morning. And according to the custom of the regent, their attackers would never be dispatched in the middle of the day. Because then it's bound to have some repercussions. But now they're just doing it. There are a lot of cities around here.

"I don't know what you're going to do. Firestorm looked like it was burning at this moment, and he used his magic to levitate himself low. "However, I think if we don't get rid of them, then it's only us who will be dealt with. So, I still want to experience what it feels like to kill these attackers in the name of justice. “

As soon as he finished speaking, the firestorm summoned a large field of flames and rushed straight towards the attackers. As if they hadn't thought of this, they were caught off guard and killed and injured a large number of people in an instant. At this time, they reacted and sent a group of cavalry, about two or three hundred people, to charge at us, and at the same time, a piece of black pressure also rose from them. I know, it's an arrow. A large field of arrows pressed by black.

I don't have the slightest fear that these arrows will hurt me. And under my protection, nothing will happen to Reading. But the trouble now is, how do I keep these three people safe?" "Banksy, barrier!"

"No, no, no, I can't resist so many attacks!" Banks shook his head repeatedly, but Iron Mountain stood firmly in front of Banks at this time, and used his huge iron shield to protect Banks firmly behind him. Looks like there shouldn't be anything wrong with Banks. But what about Firestorm?

"Don't worry, ma'am. Iron Mountain looked at me confidently, but I couldn't see his expression through his helmet. But I could hear his confident voice, "There is no problem with such an arrow for Firestorm, you see. ”

Sure enough, when Firestorm saw such a large number of arrows coming towards him, he didn't have a scared expression, but said excitedly, "Very good, very good." I love things like this!" Then, distinctly, I saw that the flames surrounding the firestorm suddenly lit up. Then, instead of avoiding it, he rushed at the arrows. The arrows did not have any attack power in front of the fire storm, and all the arrows burned up at a distance of more than ten meters from the fire storm, and then fell weakly to the ground. "How can these unseen things hurt my Fire Storm Uncle!" Fire Storm sneered and rushed to the ground, no one could stop the power of Fire Storm.

It's just, it's so exciting. I really can't find any other adjective to describe what we're seeing now, but I have a vague feeling that something is wrong. Iron Mountain, unscathed, after blocking all the arrows flying towards him and Banks, rushed at the cavalry like a moving bunker. Just as Firestorm couldn't find an opponent, no cavalry could stop Iron Mountain's truly mountain-like body. Even a full-force stab could not penetrate Iron Mountain's defenses. And every swing of Iron Mountain's giant sword caused the cavalry to be cut in half alive.

"It's cruel. Reading whispered to me. And that's when I discovered the problem.

"They're too weak. I said in a deep voice, which puzzled Reading. "Don't you see it? The people who attacked us this time are too weak!"

Sure enough, although there were more than 300 cavalry, Iron Mountain could have dealt with it alone, and now Banksy had cast a strange spell on Iron Mountain. Iron Mountain was covered in a dull yellow light. After enveloping this layer of light, Iron Mountain roared excitedly, and then all the remaining cavalry was cut in half by Iron Mountain. There were even some unlucky war horses that were directly cut off by Tie Shan. In the distance, the Firestorm had wiped out all the attackers.

Reading saw this scene, and he asked a little puzzled, "I don't think, I just think that the reason why we were able to take out the enemy easily is because our new teammates are so strong." ”

I don't think so, I know very well the strength of these people. If they had protected Reading instead of me in the two previous attacks, they would have died there. But why are the enemies so weak this time? Moreover, they are uncharacteristically attacking us in the middle of the day. "Conspiracy! This is definitely a conspiracy! We are all fooled!"

Sure enough, what happened next confirmed my suspicions. I saw that all around us, suddenly a large army appeared. Yes, the military, these people are clearly not dressed up by the attackers. I saw one of the generals, dressed in a good manner, appear on our side, riding a sturdy white horse: "You bullies, you have slaughtered my entire army! Now, you will pay for it!"

"Come on, let me see how good you are. "Firestorm is clearly not over yet, and he's repeating his old tricks to wipe out the army that suddenly appears in front of him.

But I yelled loudly, "Firestorm, go, go! we've been fooled!"
