Li Mo didn't answer, just watched quietly.

The atmosphere was still eerily silent.

Hasting's pale hand was put into the black robe again, and he said slowly: "Sure enough, as William said, you are not afraid of the White Bone Baron, or even despised it. ”

"I'm neither afraid nor despise, I only do what I think is right. Li Mo said lightly.

"I'm very curious about you, respected Mr. Li Mo. Hastings suddenly changed his words, but his tone was still emotionless, "You don't have the slightest Force energy reaction on your body, but you give me the feeling that you are a deep and terrifying opponent. ”

"That's because you're not familiar with it, and if you do, you won't feel that way. William, for example, and your husband, Mr. Charlotte, all get along very well with me. Li Mo smiled.

Hastings shook his head, the figure shrouded in a black robe, still unable to see his true face, said, "I have a greater curiosity. ”

She pointed to the distance, the few Monkey Musketeers of the Fighting Ape Independent Battalion, and the Primal Muskets they carried.

"I've never seen a weapon like that, not even these soldiers of yours, like that. It's completely different from other races of soldiers I've seen. ”

"But, it seems, apart from me, William was not curious, nor did Charlotte. Their attitude is almost to the point that all these strange things about you are very reasonable. ”

Hastings said indifferently, "Did you control them, or did they surrender to you?"

Li Mo frowned secretly, the mysterious woman in front of him was really as powerful as rumored.

"It's because William and Charlotte have a lot of trust in me. As a friend and ally, I have the same trust in William and Charlotte. Li Mo still said with a smile.

"Lady Hasting, the stronger the soldiers under my command, the more they will help William. You have only one son, William, and you want to be able to witness the day when he ascends to the throne. ”

Li Mo smiled, "This day won't be long, we just defeated Qiao Xi's forward corps, proving that this step is right, isn't it?"

"I don't doubt your strength in the slightest, and even appreciate your strength. Hastings suddenly laughed, "As for whether William can get on the lord's seat or not, it should depend on his fate, whether he is lucky enough." ”

Li Mo felt a little incomprehensible about this sentence.

It doesn't feel like a mother saying it.

Hasting's body began to swirl, and the faint mist of shadows made her figure look more blurry and more inscrutable.

"Mr. Li Mo, I will pay attention to your actions. The land of the Three Ridges needs competition, and only the strong can set foot in the Sweet Water Oasis. ”

As he spoke, Hastings turned around and was about to leave, but he still thought about it, turned back and said, "Parliament, I also want to see competition." If you understand this sentence, you will understand. If you don't understand, then you forget ......"

With the words, Hastings gradually departed like a shadow of fog.

Li Mo's heart shook violently.

He immediately and decisively activated the "Pupil of God" probe.

In the moment when Hastings disappeared, he got the feedback result:

"Character: Hasting;"

"Status: Unknown;"

"Energy: +200 (Demonic)"

Li Mo took a deep breath and calmed down his surprise.

The results of this investigation showed that the "Hasting" in front of him was not necessarily William's mother "Hasting".

A woman who knows the "council", a woman with the power of the "demonic" force, and a mysterious woman who shows energy but whose state is unknown.

It could never be that Hastings of Razor Ridge.

Even this figure of energy combat power cannot be real.

Li Mo left quickly.

A moment later, Charlotte, who had been notified, came to the remote barracks alone.

"You and William went back to Razor Ridge, after meeting Hasting, were you intimate with her, did you feel any difference?" Li Mo asked calmly.

"Uh......" Xia Luo was a little stunned, and after hearing this sentence, she also frowned, and said slowly: "It's indeed a little different......

"For example?" asked Li Mo.

"She's never alone with me, and she feels rusty. Even ......" Charlotte's face showed a hint of embarrassment, "even she is cold to me, not at all as intimate as before......"

"What if she's not Hasting?" Li Mo frowned.

"How is that possible!"

Xia Luo shook her head in surprise, "The aura on the body of relatives will not change. Even though she was cold to me, I could feel that she was Hasting. Maybe it will take time for us to ......"

"What Force attribute is she?" Li Mo interrupted Charlotte's self-absorbed words.

Charlotte touched her nose and said, "She's a Shadow Warlock, and she was personally drawn by Count Adolf. ”

"From now on, everything about Xijing City and the things between us will never be mentioned. Don't get too close to that 'Hasting'! With your IQ and EQ, you should be able to do it. Li Mo said lightly.

"You mean, she's not herself?" Charlotte was amazed.

"She's not a Shadowor, and she's not William's mother, so you understand?"

When Charlotte heard this, her face turned a little pale.

But for Li Mo's obedience, he immediately calmed down, and said with a wry smile: "That's actually the case! Alas, I thought I could get a harmonious and stable little family." ”

"You just need to protect William, he is the future Lord of Razor Ridge, you hold it tight, and you can get the family you want. Li Mo said with a smile.

"Well, as you wish!"

Charlotte bowed, then quietly left.

Li Mo sat quietly in his chair and thought.

At present, it can be judged that Hastings is from the "Aragami Shadow Council". So what she just said is an invitation?

After all, the three-headed hound said before that the "Aragami Shadow Council" is making selections and invitations similar to "seeds" for each potential powerhouse.

This made Li Mo feel uncomfortable.

"Only by relying on strength, decisively taking the Luoxia Heights and occupying the Sweet Water Oasis, can we have confidence and chips. Otherwise, everything is utopian. Li Mo muttered to himself silently.

...............

In the busy camp of Sentinel Ridge, calm was restored as night slowly approached. The losses and labor pains that I had endured before began to ease.

But hatred and humiliation are still engraved on the faces of every Sentinel Ridge soldier.

Qiao Xi convened a meeting of officers, and a series of campaign arrangements were strictly implemented. All the high-ranking officers had already learned that the most powerful "Silver Thorn Crown Monk Society" in Xifeng City had been secretly stationed in the camp.

The "Silver Thorn Crown" is an organization established by Count Adolf, the lord of Xifeng City. The transcendents who can qualify for the "Silver Thorn Crown" are all devout disciples of the God of Light and War.

Under the authority of Count Adolf, whether it is the land of the three ridges in the west or the border between the north and south, the "Silver Thorn Crown" acts as the count's punishing hand, sweeping away all enemies.

Even the White Bone Baron, who was second only to Adolf in prestige, had fled in panic under the blow of the "Silver Thorn Crown". The victorious battle that punished Razor Ridge back then is still being recited as a poem in Xifeng City.

At this moment, under the gentle blowing of the night breeze and in the shadow of the dead trees on the hills, one of the three leaders of the "Silver Thorn Crown", Mentor Child, stood quietly on the grass, looking at the far end of the werewolf camp in Razor Ridge.

Behind Childe were twelve white-robed, short-haired, bare-footed blazing mages. In their hands, they all held silver staffs entwined with thorns.

There were also three bright cavalry chiefs wearing fine silver armor and broad-ridged swords behind them.

These fifteen members of the "Silver Thorn" monks are Child's most trusted subordinates and the most loyal to his right-hand men.

"It's ready, Mentor Child. The Chief Knight Chief said respectfully.

"Decapitation is the most effective way to strike. Childe said lightly, "Precise kills, fearless raids, high-end suppression, and perfect triumph after success! ”

"Yes!"

The fifteen members of the "Silver Thorn Crown" monk quickly moved away like the wind.

After Qiao Xi finished the officers' meeting, he also came behind Child, looked at the backs of the fifteen monks, and said in a deep voice: "I have already made arrangements, after William's camp riots, he will face a destructive attack. ”

"Maybe it's time to think about the next opponent, Qiao Xi. ”

Childe turned around and said indifferently: "According to the intelligence, the centaurs of the Far West Plains, as well as the filthy ogre trolls, are also about to reach the Luoxia Heights. ”

"Is it the reinforcements of the Baron of Bones?" Qiao Xi frowned.

"Not really. Childe shook his head, "I always felt that there was a mysterious force that was playing with the situation in the Wild West. The control of Sweetwater Oasis has never been hotter than it is today. ”

"After defeating William tonight, we can go straight into the sunset heights. Then, we will enter the rhythm that we can control, and we will eliminate all the fools who come to commit them one by one. ”

There was a lot of confidence in Qiao Xi's tone.

"Silver Thorn Crown" is his hole card, and it is also the most powerful hole card.

"Don't be proud, child, we are nobles among the white descendants, and excellent people blessed and favored by the God of Light and War. Childe looked into the night and said in a calm tone.

"A small victory, just a stepping stone tonight. Winning the whole west is the goal! Count Adolf has gone to the frontier, and now that there is a power vacuum, the time has come for us to show our ambitions. ”

Qiao Xi excitedly touched his chest with one hand, and prayed sincerely to the God of War of Light.

The night grew quieter.

Suddenly, there was a commotion in the werewolf camp at night at the far end.

"The decapitation operation has been successful!" Childe smiled slightly.

Qiao Xi clenched his fists tightly and strode towards the barracks.
