With President Enoch and Mrs. Reynaud already in Nelde, Admiral Bimont's heart finally fell to the ground.

Like him, there are also Akers and Lin Zexi.

"Mr. Enoch, I wonder if there has been any progress on the mermaid's song?" Lin Zexi stood outside the special monitoring room, and when the two elders of the Guide Association came out of it, he greeted them eagerly and asked.

Mr. Enoch nodded to Ax and motioned for them to talk elsewhere.

Chen Jing and Admiral Bimont also had to report to the military headquarters the process of "communication" with the mermaid priest just now, so everyone split into two ways, Hain followed the marshal back to the headquarters, and Ax and Lin Zexi followed Mr. Enoch to their temporary office.

"Your Highness, you look good." Mr. Enoch and Mrs. Reynolds had arrived to "talk" with the mermaid priest as soon as they got off the warship, so they had only now officially met with Prince Ax.

Ax immediately replied: "Thank you, you and Madame Renault have come all the way to work hard! I am very grateful to the previous two for their help and guidance, which has benefited me a lot. ”

Mr. Enoch smiled and shook his head: "Your Highness is polite, everything should be, and besides, we didn't do anything for Your Highness and the Marshal." ”

- This can only be regarded as a short voyage for him, after all, it is still in the Union, and the flight distance from Syst to Nede is only one-ninth of the distance from Heatt to Carter.

"When I came, I thought, maybe you solved the problem yourself before we got to Nerde, and it turned out to be true." Madame Reynaud was on the sidelines, looking at the little prince with gentle eyes.

In addition to the last communication, she also hadn't seen His Highness Ax for a while.

Originally, I thought that His Royal Highness the Prince would have to follow the general to the Fifth Star Zone and follow the legion to fight, which would be very hard, but in fact, the last time I saw Akes in the communication, he was a little haggard.

But now that she saw it with her own eyes, she felt that last time because of the general's matter, His Royal Highness Ax was a little anxious, and he looked weaker.

Hearing Mrs. Reynold's words, Ax felt that it would not be good if he wanted to explain modestly that the advice given by Mrs. Lin had finally worked.

is also the chief guide, what Mr. Enoch can't solve, Mrs. Lin helps solve, and it seems to have the feeling of provoking the relationship between the two elders when she says it.

So Akes could only take the credit on himself, only saying that he happened to want to think differently, but he didn't expect it to succeed.

However, Mr. Enoch and the others did not continue to discuss this matter, but focused on the "Mermaid Song".

"I've already spoken to the marshal today, so it shouldn't be too much of a problem," Mr. Enoch said to Ax, "and we just talked to the priest of the merfolk clan, and this merfolk song does have some similarities with hypnosis." ”

As for the way in which they "communicated", Mr. Enoch did not tell the little prince.

"So what are we going to do now? Is there still a hidden danger on the general's side? Akers was a little anxious when he talked about it.

Mr. Enoch immediately reassured: "Your Highness, don't worry, although the influence of this kind of spiritual power does exist, the time and degree of its effect are affected by the situation of the object itself. ”

In other words, if you encounter an ordinary person or the last sentry, I am afraid that you will have to be tortured for a while longer, but a dark sentry like the marshal, if you are recruited once because you don't understand, it will not be permanent.

At that time, the reason why only Chen Jing was hypnotized by the "song" of the mermaid priest was mainly because his five senses were more sensitive than those of Admiral Monte and Lieutenant General Hain, and under that long-distance condition, only he heard the hypnotic sound made by the mermaid priest.

But without continuous, multiple hypnosis, the line becomes a deep-rooted impression, and it doesn't make much sense.

"But the general has been in the fugue since he was in Sist, and it was another time ago, and I am worried that this influence will quietly hibernate and wait for an opportunity to act when it is critical."

"The General's fugue this time should not be caused by the mermaid's song, but by madness," Mrs. Reynolds thought for a moment, "If you want to control a dark guide for a long time, theoretically the mental power required must be huge. No matter how powerful this mermaid priest is, he is not yet at the level of a god-level guide, and it is still possible to influence the general for a while and a half, but it is absolutely impossible for a long time. ”

She continued to say to Ax: "Do you recall for yourself that between the marshal's last fugue and this fugue when you came to Nerde, did you find anything unusual when you were giving spiritual counseling to the general? ”

Akers recalled it and found that he had indeed never heard the "Mermaid Song" hidden in Chen Jing's consciousness again.

"You can do a few more mental counseling for the general during this time to see if this is the case." Madame Reynaud suggested.

"Okay!" Arkes felt a lot more relaxed when he heard Mr. Enoch and Mrs. Reynolds say this.

"The next thing we're going to do is wait for Jörmungård to send a message to the Nerde military base." Mr. Enoch looked out the window.

"Hopefully things can be resolved as soon as possible and those hostages can go home soon." Mrs. Reynolds added.

Arks heard their conversation and sighed silently in his heart.

- How nice it would be to live together peacefully without these strife!

However, he also knows very well that a couple who once fell in love with each other may not be able to get along due to various problems such as broken relationships, incompatible personalities, etc., and end up going their separate ways, let alone two different races.

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Two more days passed, and finally news came about Jörmungad.

This time, it was the Sea Emperor of Maldez who saw that he could not avoid the responsibility he had to bear in the previous battle, and the Federation made it clear that he did not want to cooperate with the Gamir mermaid anymore, and finally became anxious.

The "go all out" that the Federation said at the beginning finally has some truth.

Emperor Malediz sent his elite troops to find the traces of Jörmungad, and Princess Kurga was behind them, so their merfolk soon found the traces of Prince Marcus and his party.

This time they did not get all close, but wandered for a while before returning to Gamir and reporting what they had found to the Sea Emperor of Maledez.

The Sea Emperor knew that he could no longer keep his eldest son, so he could only reluctantly pass the news to the Nede military base.

Chen Jing and the others got the exact news and also sent their own troops to confirm it.

Although it is not possible to find Jörmungård immediately, there are clues to follow.

Once again, the War Department had a discussion with the Nerde garrison, and the top brass of Silster thought it was a great time - an opportunity to catch them all!

"What the military department means is that the Nerder garrison pretends to talk to Jörmungård about the exchange of hostages, and then uses this as bait to hunt down their mermaids." Bimont said at a meeting within the Legion.

"With Prince Marcus's cautious attitude, I'm afraid he won't be fooled so easily." A general of the Fifth Army questioned it.

"There is a mermaid priest in our hands, so we can't let him be fooled!" Another general said.

In fact, the military department had said that regardless of whether or not the mermaids of Jörmungård talked about the issue of hostages, they would take the initiative to ask for the exchange of hostages.

Jörmungård's reaction was similar to what they had estimated, and he didn't drag his feet any longer, as if the Federation, like the Federation, was imperative on the exchange of hostages.

But if the two sides can sit down and talk about it one day, they will find how much they agree on each other's ideas - they both want to make a fuss when exchanging hostages, so that the other party will taste the bitterness!

"That's what we meant, and judging by how the marshal felt at the meeting, he also wanted to make a fierce attack."

"In that case, when will our plan begin?"

"Theoretically, from now on." Admiral Bimont smiled and said - Jörmungad, they are bound to win!

―――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――――

No matter how anxious the old priest of Jörmungandr was, the two sides quickly agreed on a time and place for the exchange of hostages.

This time, Nerde's land military base has made a big move, but it is deployed very secretly.

They did not ask for support from other "allies" such as the Sea Emperor of Maldez or the Princess Kurga, but led the troops of the First and Fifth Legions with Chen Jing and General Bimont as the core.

The former, like the previous time, was responsible for bringing the merfolk hostages to the agreed location to exchange with the merfolk of Jörmungandr, while the latter secretly followed until the right opportunity, and then launched a hunt for the mermaid of Jörmungård immediately, and pursued it with victory!

"This time Akers will stay on land and won't have to go with us." Chen Jing discussed with the little prince.

What happened last time had already had an impact on this man's mind, and he didn't want to take the same risk again.

The merfolk can't be on land for too long, so Akers is in a military base and will be safer.

Admiral Bimont also expressed strong support for this, and President Enoch and Mrs. Reynolds would act with them, at least to ensure that their sentries would not be attacked by the mermaid guide's mental power, and even affect the mermaid sentry's movements.

Jörmungad's chief guide was controlled by them and couldn't play a role, no matter how you look at them, they have an advantage, and they don't need Prince Ax to follow them at all.

If there is any trap in the deep sea that they can't think of, at least His Royal Highness the Prince will not be in danger.

- Prince Ax is safe, and the marshal is also safe here! 166 Reading Network
