Chapter 685: A Cup of Wine Grows Up

Aside from the fact that Assam, a vampire, nervously commanded a bunch of second- and third-order Silver Pegasus Legion soldiers to arrange defensive posts under the watchful eye of the Pegasus King Feiyun. As Ophelia walked up the wooden staircase to www.biquge.info the second floor of the 'Oak Cup' tavern, in the innermost room facing the street, she saw Wright, sitting at the table in front of the window, drinking an ale and staring out the window.

Even though she and Wright have been together for a long time and are already very familiar to some extent, in Ophelia's impression, there are still countless mysteries about Wright. Not to mention, whenever he is alone, Wright, who drinks silently, always makes her feel an indescribable sense of loneliness.

Whenever this happens, Ophelia wants to ask: What are you thinking? Who are you? Where are you from?

However, Ophelia knew that she would never ask him this question again, that some things would only be done if he wanted to say it himself, and if she had done so, the trust and special feeling that she had built up would probably evaporate. This was not the outcome Ophelia wanted.

(Maybe one day, he'll tell me himself, right?) If...... )

"Wright, I'm back."

"Come and do it, Fia. I've seen it just now. ”

When Zhang Yang spoke, the feeling of loneliness and alienation around him disappeared in an instant, as if the person in the painting had instantly returned to reality, and suddenly came alive.

"It would be very troublesome for Assam's identity to be discovered by someone else."

"It should be fine, he's special, the aura of the undead is faint, and he doesn't look like a vampire. And the point is that he will be useful in the face of the upcoming battle. ”

"Fighting? Haven't we ruined the Elders' plans? What do you mean by the upcoming battle? ”

"I don't think the Council of Elders will give up easily, now that this matter has involved the three princes of the French Empire, then they will definitely try their best to eradicate you, a disobedient pawn. Only then will they be able to fully control the Silver Pegasus Legion, and they will be able to use it as some kind of weight. ”

“…… But Wright, now that I have made the Presbyterian Church public, they will never dare to send their men to conspire again, and if they dare to attack me, then I can call on all the Silver Pegasus Knights to eradicate them on the charge of treason! ”

"yes, do you think the Presbyterians could be so stupid as to leave such obvious tricks to you?"

“…… It can't be, so what will they do? Is it ......?"

"It should be as you guessed, they will issue high bounties through dark channels, and the target for you is probably your head and your silver Pegasus warriors. [800]”

Hearing this, Ophelia was so angry that her eyebrows almost stood up! Ophelia understands that she wants her life, but she doesn't understand that for the sake of power and **, those damn members of the Presbyterian Church would actually attack these ordinary warriors of the Silver Pegasus Legion around her!?

You must know that if you do this, it will shake the foundation of the Silver Pegasus Army!

Wright...... This ......"

For a while, Ophelia suddenly didn't know what to do, and the thought of letting these loyal and brave Silver Pegasus Legion soldiers around her die in vain in order to protect her, Ophelia suddenly couldn't bear it. For her to live alone to reach the pinnacle of power, but let so many innocent fighters sacrifice, is this really the result she wants?!

At this time, perhaps fortunately, Zhang Yang was able to roughly guess Ophelia's mentality, and once it will be successful, there are some things that people can't avoid. If you want to win without sacrificing, that kind of thing probably only exists in fairy tales. Thinking of this, Zhang Yang suddenly pulled the empty wine glass in front of Ophelia's eyes, filled her with a glass of ale wine and put it in front of Ophelia's eyes, and then said slowly:

"Are you doubting the path you have chosen?"

"I ......"

Subconsciously took the wine glass handed by Wright, Ophelia looked at the milky white foam that could not stop rising and falling in the wine glass, and was a little speechless for a while. If you want to control your own destiny, you have to take control of the Silver Pegasus Legion, and that's right.

And in the process of achieving this goal, I am afraid that many innocent people will die, but now that Ophelia has passed the ancient trial and obtained the approval of Feiyun, does she still have a choice?

Thinking of this, Ophelia suddenly felt a little headache, and it happened that she had a large glass of cool ale in her hand, and she rarely raised her head and drank it in one gulp!

Call~!

On weekdays, Ophelia drank mostly the expensive 'Fran Love', but now that a large glass of ale wine was in her stomach, she suddenly felt a kind of refreshment that she had never felt before! And just as she was trying to suppress it and not let herself burp, Zhang Yang's calm voice had continued to come.

"In fact, no matter when, people have the right to choose and opportunities, such as now, if you continue to walk, you may achieve the goal of controlling your own destiny; And if you are tired of all this, you can also choose to let Feiyun take you back to the Forest of Warcraft, and return to that small valley where the world is not contested to live the rest of your life. ”

Speaking of this, Zhang Yang also raised his head and drank the ale wine in the wine glass, and at this time, he continued:

"You should understand that if you really give up the right to fight for the Silver Pegasus Legion, then in the current situation, the Silver Pegasus Legion is likely to be under the control of the Council of Elders, participating in the competition for the throne of the French Empire by those princes, and at that time, countless Silver Pegasus warriors will die the same, but they did not die in the cause of defending their relatives and homeland, but died in the internal attrition battle between the human nobles, and died worthless, without a trace of honor. Do you want something like this to happen? At that time, will your heart really be able to turn a blind eye? ”

"I ......"

Although Zhang Yang's tone of speech at this time was flat, his content was extremely sharp. Hearing this, in Ophelia's eyes, Wright on the other side of the wooden table seemed to have changed back to the way he had commanded Ruoding in Jotham! At this time, Wright almost completely subverted the impression of the previous warlord, as if he had suddenly turned into a scholar, and the sharpness of his words was simply astonishing to Ophelia!

(It was a wise choice to let Wright be a lobbyist in the first place...... )

Ophelia's mind suddenly popped up with such a strange thought, but Zhang Yang suddenly burped before he spoke next, and the rest of the words could only be described by the word 'straightforward'......

"A lot of times, what we do is like drinking ale, and now that we've drunk it, we have to burp it loudly. Otherwise, it will be uncomfortable in the stomach, and in the end, it will be converted to other ways to discharge, and even if it is silent at that time, it will be stinky. ”

"Uh...... Haha~! Belch~! ”

Hearing this, the elegant Ophelia couldn't hold back any longer, not only laughed out loud, but even the wine burp that had been holding it back also came up! However, after this wine burp, Ophelia suddenly felt that her original heavy mood instantly relaxed!

(yes!) There are some things that you have to do now that you have decided! There may be some costs, but the end result is better than giving up! At the very least, I've worked hard! )

Wright...... Thank you! ”

"It's a trivial matter, let's have another drink!"

"Hmm!"

……

The afternoon passed quickly, not to mention how Yang and Ophelia, as well as Assam and the Silver Pegasus warriors, tossed around in the 'Oak Cup' tavern. In the prison of the city guards in Moratis City, seven mercenary warriors who originally belonged to the Ice Blue Mercenary Regiment were nervously waiting for something.

At this time, not only were their weapons and armor taken away, but even the fighting energy on their bodies was temporarily sealed by Ophelia with a 'confinement potion'. Professionals who do not have fighting spirit are only stronger than ordinary people, and at best, they can reach the strength level of about the first order by relying on ** strength.

Through a fist-sized window above the dungeon, the captives could clearly see that on the opposite side of their position, several death row prisoners were wearing the full armor they had taken off, and they were thrown into their cells after they were completely gagged and trapped all over their bodies.

"Captain, is it really credible that you said that the word sent by Ophelia?"

"I really don't know, but since Lord Demok's death, we've been rootless duckweed. Although as long as we can get out alive, we can continue to mix in the mercenary circle with our brothers' skills, but ...... As you know, now the seven princes are fighting for the chair that represents the imperial power. Therefore, I think that even if we continue to do it, we will only be fighting everywhere, and as for the final outcome...... I don't say that everyone can think of it. ”

"What do you mean? Shall we not avenge Lord Dermok? ”

We are mercenaries, and we should not bring the hatred in the mission to our daily life with money. However, Captain Demok treats us well, so even if we risk our lives to take revenge, it's nothing, it's just ......"

"yes...... Even Lord Demok in his heyday is no match, so what can we do?! ”

“……”

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now, let's watch quietly! As agreed before, if the Kamod Family Elders really send someone to kill us, it means that the real culprit who killed Lord Demok is the Kamod Family Elders! So why can't we help Ophelia even if we help for the time being!? ”

"Hmmm! Makes sense, that's it! ”

"Agreed!"

At this moment, the warrior, who had been lying on the wall and looking at the wind through the air window, suddenly shouted in a low voice:

"Shut up! Thieves are sneaking in! ”
