Seeing Shen Mengting so serious, Chen Tianhao had some goosebumps. He seemed to feel a little itchy all over his body, so he scratched at himself.

Shen Mengting also realized this. After she glanced at all parts of Chen Tianhao's body, she let out a puzzle, "Hmm, what's wrong with you?"

"I think you're exaggerating?" Chen Tianhao finally showed a different temperament from usual. It seems that he is no longer a very calm assassin in everything.

"It's not an exaggeration at all!" Shen Mengting immediately denied, "Chen Tianhao! No, it should be said that the entire kingdom of Saran is about to face a catastrophe that is about to strike and destroy. So for me, the burden on my shoulders is really heavy!" she said with a bottomless style.

For a while, Chen Tianhao didn't know how to respond. At first, he just wanted to take over the woman's power and avoid the pursuit of the Assassin League. But what they didn't expect was that the enemy they had to face on their side seemed to be even more tricky than the Assassin Alliance.

You must know that the Sauron Empire is one of the most powerful countries in Celos, and they have also invaded many human countries over the years. If they want to be serious, don't say anything about Saran, even other powerful countries may not be able to resist it.

Therefore, Chen Tianhao seems to believe that the Saran Kingdom will inevitably become the food of the Sauron Empire, and it will be eaten alive.

If that's the case, then the civilians of this country will all become slaves! Chen Tianhao swallowed his saliva and thought. He regrets it a little now, and he also feels that it seems that it is better to find a place where no one knows and go incognito.

"What's wrong? Chen Tianhao, do you regret it now?"

Just when he was in a state of distraction, Shen Mengting's question suddenly struck again. Chen Tianhao had no choice but to forcibly hit his thoughts. It's just that he can only reply to the word 'ah' to hide his embarrassment.

"I'm asking you, do you regret it?" Shen Mengting lowered her head, which made her feel like she was shrinking her neck, "If you think the Sauron Empire is too terrible and don't want to fight with us." Then you can leave. Don't worry! I, Shen Mengting, will never have any opinions!"

Chen Tianhao asked if he twitched his lower body. He hurriedly looked at Shen Mengting, but what he saw was an expressionless and angry face. There was no way, Chen Tianhao had to retract his gaze.

"I didn't say anything, did you, why do you think I'm going to regret it?"

"You can be honest. The terrifying nature of the Sauron Empire is almost known to everyone!It's normal that you don't want to face it!" Shen Mengting's speech was unfluctuating, which made it impossible to guess her current thoughts.

Chen Tianhao fell into silence a little, and he didn't know what to say at the moment. If you want to say regret, he does have a point.

But......

"Otherwise, you can hide and think about it, I'm not going to force you or anything. If you figure it out sometimes, come to Kiyose Castle to find me. As far as you can tell, I still have some power in the city, which means it's easy to find. As she spoke, Shen Mengting was about to turn around, "You'd better think about it again!"

"Wait!"

Shen Mengting was just about to take a step forward, but was stopped by Chen Tianhao's shout. She immediately stopped all movements, whether it was stepping or turning.

"What's wrong?"

"Shen Mengting!" Chen Tianhao called the name softly, "Can I ask you a question?"

Shen Mengting hesitated slightly, but still expanded her body, "What's the problem?"

"Why? Why do you have to fight against the Sauron Empire?" Chen Tianhao's gaze was extremely sincere, "Almost everyone knows the strength of the Sauron Empire. During these years, they have also annexed quite a few human countries. As they intended, they were contributing to uniting humanity. Therefore your kingdom of Salam will surely fall. Under such pressure, you have a ......"

Shen Mengting was completely scolded up and down, and Chen Tianhao raised his hands as if in surrender, "I'm sorry! But you're a girl, and you're a delusional thought of dealing with the most powerful country in all of Celos. Isn't that a bit whimsical? And I've heard...... Your Saran country has not been doing well in recent days, the army has been depleted to the point where there is almost no one to fight, and most of the officials are inclined to compromise with the Sauron Empire. Against this backdrop, what are your thoughts about resisting?"

Chen Tianhao was almost gushing, but none of the words were meaningless. Even every word in it pierced deeply into Shen Mengting's heart.

Over the years, Shen Mengting herself doesn't know how many times she has asked this question for herself.

'What am I thinking about resisting the Sauron Empire?'

The Sauron Empire is dozens of times stronger than the Kingdom of Saran, and if Saran wants to resist, there is almost no chance of victory. Therefore, Shen Mengting can be like those compromisers, self-deceived that the Sauron Empire is the great savior of mankind, so as to unite with Sauron's ruling class to oppress the civilians of Saran. In the best case, Shen Mengting can even get some official positions.

But......

Suddenly raised her head, Shen Mengting looked at the vast sky above. In the gray sky, the image of the father seems to be reflected.

"I ...... Definitely won't ......" moved her mouth out of thin air, and a little light flashed in Shen Mengting's eyes, "Definitely won't ......"

Chen Tianhao next to him tilted his head in confusion, "You won't know anything?"

"I ...... I ......" she said something in a broken voice, and her expression suddenly became serious and rigid, "I will never compromise with a country like the Sauron Empire!"

"Huh?"

"My father once said to me, 'Never trust the Sauronians.' You should know very well what kind of rulers that country is!"

"Of course I know that. I am a native of Shanluo, and my country has also been invaded by the Sauron Empire. Moreover, the elders who used to live with me also spoke of the brutality of Sauron's army. So of course I know the evil deeds of the Sauron Empire!"

"So, do you think I'll compromise with the Sauron Empire?"

"But it's one thing to know it, and it's another thing to be able to fight it!"

"No! It's the same thing. It's because the country is so vicious and full of terrible exploitation. Therefore, as a soldier of Saran, I must resist the Sauron Empire to the end, and there must be no compromise! I definitely don't want to see the army of the Sauron Empire step into Saran and then oppress the people here. I can't even watch the people of Saran fall into the jaws of the Saurons. ”

"But have you ever thought that there is any point in you doing this? you are no match for the Saurons at all!" Chen Tianhao said in a much softer tone, although he put forward a rebellious statement.

"Whether it's an opponent or not! We won't know until we have a duel!"

"Oh, is that really the case? But the reality is, you're a loser! That magician is a Sauron, right? I didn't mean to splash cold water on you. But the gap between you and him may be the gap between Saran and Sauron at the moment! It is almost impossible for you and your country to win!" In the process of saying this, Chen Tianhao's eyes were firmly fixed on Shen Mengting.

And Shen Mengting didn't choose to avoid it, "Even so, I will fight hard!"

"Oh, why?"

"Because ......" Shen Mengting's eyes looking at the sky completely flashed with golden light, "Only by trying, can you get the final result." If you choose to give up just because it is so difficult, then you will not do anything well!"

"But did you ever think you'd die!"

"Death?" Shen Mengting gradually lowered her head, she actually bloomed a relieved smile at this moment, "What about dying?

"What?"

"My father once warned me that if one day you were to die for your country, you should not be afraid. You see, that is the glory that has been poured into you. Therefore, I will never be afraid of dying! As far as the country is ruined, the destruction of the family and the oppression of the people by other countries are the most terrible things!"

Although the surrounding environment is relatively peaceful, Chen Tianhao's heart must not be calm at the moment. He couldn't have imagined that this woman was carrying such pressure on her shoulders. Similarly, the spirit of disregarding life and death and extraordinariness displayed by the woman made him admire it even more.

Chen Tianhao had never had the idea of admiring a woman before. Now, a living example stood before him.

For a while, Chen Tianhao was a little difficult to breathe, and he didn't know what to say.

"Okay! I've already said what I should have said!Regarding whether you want to join the team, I hope you still think about it!" After speaking, Shen Mengting turned around. She didn't look back again, but she still spoke to Chen Tianhao in the back, "But I still hope you don't think about it here." Because it's so dangerous, there's more than one Sauron chasing us. Any one of them has more than high-level strength, so when you meet them, you must first escape, understand?"

Chen Tianhao said 'ah' in a tone. To be honest, he didn't hear what Shen Mengting was talking about clearly. At present, he is still moved by the spirit shown by that woman.

"Okay! That's it! I'm leaving! Please ask for more blessings for yourself!" After shaking her body slightly, Shen Mengting was about to run forward.

But the moment she took a step, Chen Tianhao's shout sounded behind her.

"Hey, you wait!"

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Shen Mengting immediately stopped and turned around.

But when she turned around, she saw a smiling face. Chen Tianhao seems to have something happy at the moment, so the overall appearance is happy.

Shen Mengting felt very strange, but before she could ask, Chen Tianhao walked forward one step ahead.

"You woman, can you not be so anxious!" Chen Tianhao walked up to Shen Mengting.

Shen Mengting will also turn around completely and calmly face to face.

The breeze swept through the trees, blowing the hair on their foreheads. The two stood beside each other and did not speak for a few moments. But in the end, the silence was broken by Chen Tianhao.

"Why did you go to Kiyose Castle alone?

"Oh, what do you mean......"

"I never said I would regret joining your team because I was afraid of the Sauron Empire, right?" Chen Tianhao laughed on half of his face.

Shen Mengting blinked slightly, "Then what are your current thoughts?"

"Ah, what's my idea?" Chen Tianhao's face was full of surprise. He took a few steps forward, and jumped over Shen Mengting's body together, "What else could it be?" He touched the hilt of the thin sword pinned to his waist again, "Of course I'm acting with you!"

"Ahh......h

"Hey, are you underestimating me Chen Tianhao too much? How can I say that I am also a tried and tested high-level assassin, how can I hesitate to escape because of a little difficulty?"

Shen Mengting's heart instantly felt a hot flow, "So......! Decided to ......"

"Of course I've decided to join you in the fight against the mysterious Sauron Empire!"

"But...... That country ......" Shen Mengting inhaled with palpitations, "That country is very terrifying!"

"What if it's terrible? The Assassin Alliance is not the same as terrifying? I, Chen Tianhao, haven't chosen to betray yet! So, what weight can this Sauron Empire have in my heart?"

"But have you ever thought about it? If you join our team, you will be tied to the chariot with me. In the future, you may join me on the battlefield to resist Sauron's invading army!"

"Oh! Resist Sauron's invading army! That's not bad! I, Chen Tianhao, have traveled to most of Saillos, but I haven't experienced any major battlefields yet!" Chen Tianhao wanted to make a gesture after finishing speaking. But it was definitely too contrived, so I decided to give up.

"The battlefield is not so simple, you may die at any time!"

"When I was in the League of Assassins, I was always on the verge of life and death. So, you don't need to worry about me being afraid of death!"

"Then you shouldn't or have no obligation at all, to resist Sauron for our Saran country!" Shen Mengting pouted, "You are not our Saran. ”

"No! I have an obligation!"

Chen Tianhao's answer was surprising, and Shen Mengting immediately raised two eyebrows.

"I have an obligation!" Chen Tianhao's face straightened, "All along, the Sauron Empire has invaded this country and bullied that country under the pretext of uniting all mankind. I'm not a Saran, but I'm also a member of the Shanluo Nation founded by the same human race! If I don't stop the Thorin Empire from invading you Saran today. Then, in time, my home country of Shanluo will also suffer. So I have an obligation to surround Salam!"

Chen Tianhao's words seemed to have made a hole in Shen Mengting's heart. She was a little short of breath.

Chen Tianhao was not wrong in what he said! Among the invading countries of the Sauron Empire, the Kingdom of Saran was not the first, and it could never be the last. Once the Kingdom of Saran is annexed, what awaits other human nations is an endless nightmare.

So......

When Shen Mengting held her breath, she came to Chen Tianhao's side, "Do you really have to think about it?"

"Hey, are you underestimating me?"

"Heh, you men, why are you all the same?" Shen Mengting raised her arm and waved it in front of her like a little daughter-in-law.

"Oh, what do you mean by that?" Chen Tianhao couldn't help but frown in confusion.

"It's not interesting! But since you've agreed to join us, and you're ready to fight with us, I'll ...... That's ......"

Seeing that Shen Mengting's words seemed to be stuck, Chen Tianhao shook his head, "What's wrong with you?"

"Nothing?" Shen Mengting increased her arm swing. However, she quickly put away her smile, "Let's hurry up now, or if the enemy catches up, we probably won't have any good fruit to eat!"

"Oh! yes!" Chen Tianhao scratched his head casually.

It was something he had never done before, because it was too casual.

"Then let's move on!"

"Let's go!"

The two of them began to run again. The sound of 'swish' echoed through the forest, caused by the branches and weeds they touched as they ran.

"By the way, I still have a question for you. It's about Sauron's enemies!"

After running for a while, Chen Tianhao turned his head and said something.

"What's wrong?"

"You just said that the Sauron people chasing you are not the only powerful magician just now, right?"

"Yes! There are four of them!"

"Four!" Chen Tianhao sighed as he turned his head, and then he continued to ask, "So...... How strong are they?"

"Not as powerful as that magician!"

Shen Mengting's answer made Chen Tianhao feel a lot more relieved, and he immediately prepared to catch his breath. However, just as he was about to put his thoughts into action, Shen Mengting's answer made his body twitch.

"But the strength is also at the expert level!"

Chen Tianhao was a little stunned in surprise, which caused his running speed to slow down a lot. Shen Mengting also deliberately slowed down the pace for this reason, so that she could be parallel to it again.

"What? What did you say? The strength of those three people is also ......."

"Expert!" Shen Mengting continued to nod in response without any delay.

"That'...... Isn't that ......?"

"Yes, the enemy is strong! You have to be ready!"

Chen Tianhao twitched the corners of his mouth when he heard this, and his eyes slowly narrowed by the way.

"What? Do you regret it again?"

"I just want to know about the enemy's situation!" Chen Tianhao's eyes widened again, "What kind of professions are they?"

"A mage, a blood shaman, and a swordsman!" replied smoothly Shen Mengting.
