Chapter 68: The Truth Covered Up (Update)

The entire periphery of the Sweetwater Oasis is shrouded in continuous military camps.

At night, a large number of soldiers were busy carrying supplies and preparing for war.

Qiao Xi put on a black velvet cloak, and after inspecting his position, he hurriedly walked towards the sentry leader headquarters. Along the way, the soldiers saluted, giving the Sentry Ridge successor the respect he deserved.

Bang, bang, Qiao Xi came to the command department and knocked on the door.

"Come in. Baron Tyrone's voice was heard.

Qiao Xi pushed the door in and said respectfully, "Father, are you looking for me?"

"Well, sit down and talk. ”

Baron Tyrone leaned back on the high-backed chair, threw down the military intelligence documents in his hand, rubbed his eyebrows, and then stared at Qiao Xi, and said lightly: "How is the preparation for war?"

"The cavalry regiment and the infantry regiment are already in place. The Heavy Forward Regiment has been reorganized and is ready to attack. Qiao Xi said seriously.

"Good!" Baron Tyrone nodded in satisfaction, "As a lord heir, you must be in control of the army at all times. When we take advantage of the opponents' self-care, it is the most correct way to win the Sweet Water Oasis in one fell swoop. ”

"You've been negotiating a truce with the other two lords before, are you just confusing the enemy?" Qiao Xi couldn't help but ask.

"It's because my ideological stance has changed dramatically!" said Baron Tyrone in a strange tone.

"Huh?" Qiao Xi also sensed his father's tone, and couldn't help but look at Baron Tyrone and listen carefully.

Baron Tyrone stood up, walked to the window, stared at the continuous barracks and the busy soldiers outside the window, was slightly distracted, and then said slowly after a while:

"Before that, as a qualified lord, I resisted the ambitions of the werewolves of Razor Ridge and co-opted the Panda people of Treadwind Ridge to hold a joint discussion, with the aim of preventing the Baron of Bones from occupying the Sweetwater Oasis. lest he break through the epic transcendent rank and become a nightmare in the land of the Three Ridges. ”

"I have to say, Baron Bones is second only to Count Adolf! he is a formidable opponent, if he is desperate to conquer the Sweetwater Oasis, I will join forces with Treading Wind Ridge, and it will be difficult to stop him. ”

Baron Tyrone said this, turned his head, and asked Qiao Xi: "Do you think, why do the werewolves of Razor Ridge attack again and again against the control of the Sweetwater Oasis?"

"There is a 'Origin Energy Crystal' hidden under the oasis, which is an important strategic resource! It is an indispensable source of energy for the transcendent! Whoever owns the Sweet Water Oasis has the powerful strength to dominate the land of the Three Mountains!"

Qiao Xi said without hesitation, this is the most profound truth he understood after becoming the successor of Sentinel Ridge.

Baron Tyrone shook his head with an incomprehensible smile: "I used to think so, too. And, everybody thinks so. Except for the Baron of Bones, and our greatest city lord, Count Adolf!"

"Father, what do you mean by that?" Qiao Xi was surprised.

"The Sweetwater Oasis is not a strategic place, but a passageway. A passage to enter the 'Aragami Shadow Council'!"

Baron Tyrone said in an accentuated tone, "That's why I called you, we're being hoodwinked. When I knew all this, it turned my life upside down!"

"Passage?, Aragami Shadow Council?" Qiao said, his face was full of surprise.

Baron Tyrone walked up to Qiao Xi and continued, "To explain all this, we must start with the world we live in. Qiao Xi, what's outside the Land of Three Ridges?"

"It's the border, the army of Count Adolf, stationed on the quadripartite border, and no one, no organization, is allowed to pass through the border. Legend has it that outside the borders, there are ferocious enemies who can cause disaster if they anger the enemies outside the borders. ”

Qiao Xi recounted the knowledge he had learned since he was a child, and replied: "The Great Wilderness in the West, Xifeng City in the Middle and the Land of the Wanderers, plus the mountains and rivers within the border between the north and the south, are the world we live in. ”

"That's what I used to do!"

Baron Tyrone sneered: "But I just learned that the world we live in is actually a broken floating land! The reason why Count Adolf blocked the border was because he was afraid that we would know this fact!"

Qiao Xi looked at Baron Tyrone in surprise: "Could it be that in our history, the border army stopped the enemy from invading, and the wars that took place were all fake? This is impossible, Father! If the war is fake, how can those border troops keep secrets?"

"War is real, and so is the enemy. However, it is not that there is an enemy outside the borders. Baron Tyrone said in a deep voice, "It's a tentative attack triggered by our floating ground colliding with other floating ground in the process of moving." But all of this is covered up by Count Adolf!"

"This ......" Qiao Xi's face was full of consternation, and he couldn't help but ask, "Why did Count Adolf cover it up?"

Baron Tyrone shook his head with a gloomy face: "I don't have an answer to this question. Only by entering the 'Aragami Shadow Council' can you get the answer!"

Qiao Xi couldn't help frowning and said, "In other words, in addition to Count Adolf, Baron Bones also knows this secret?"

"Yes!"

Baron Tyrone said with certainty: "If you enter the 'Aragami Shadow Council', you can advance to the epic transcendental! At the same time, you can also know the secrets of this world and get the benefits of participating in the secrets!"

"How do you know?" asked Qiao Xi in a whisper.

"Because, I just accepted the invitation of the 'Aragami Shadow Council', a councilor. Baron Tyrone smiled mysteriously and whispered, "And, I agreed, to get a soulbound curse." ”

"Curse!?"

Qiao stood up and asked incredulously, "You have been cursed?"

"It's a protection, Qiao Xi. Sit down and don't be nervous. Baron Tyrone patted Qiao Xi on the shoulder and said with a smile:

"'Soul Curse Bondage' can protect me when life and death are in danger. Then, I also acquired a skill left by Mr. Councilor: 'Obsidian Entropy Remote Cutting Technique', which can teleport and escape when in danger. ”

"This ......" Qiao Xi's face was shocked, "What the hell is going on?"

With a look of remembrance, Baron Tyrone explained:

"Mr. Councillor, came into my sleep and told me a secret: where we are now is a floating field. It is a floating place that has been separated from the shattering of a vast and infinite world. ”

"There are many, many floating places like ours. How much is not a level that we can understand. Every four years, the floating ground approaches the 'historical crevice'. ”

"What is a 'crack in history'? Mr. Councillor did not explain, except to say that it was a mysterious and unpredictable space full of dangers and opportunities. ”

"And in these four years, every floating piece of land, who has reached the peak state of elite transcendence and has broken through the epic transcendent powerhouse, will be invited by the 'Aragami Shadow Council'. ”

"Only by entering the 'Aragami Shadow Council' can you truly achieve epic transcendence. Otherwise, you will be imprisoned for the rest of your life on the road to advancement, and it will be impossible to break through to the epic transcendental. ”

When Qiao Xi heard this, he couldn't help but question: "But Count Adolf is already an epic transcendent, and he is not imprisoned. ”

"Yes, so Count Adolf, too, is a councillor. And it is the land of three ridges, the only local councillor. But he covered up this truth and it was not known. ”

Baron Tyrone snorted coldly and continued: "Why did Count Adolf cover up the truth about the floating boundary and the truth that he was a councilor? We don't know why, only by entering the 'Aragami Shadow Council' can we solve this mystery!"

Qiao Xi nodded with a sudden realization: "So, our goal is the same as the White Bone Baron, to take down the Sweetwater Oasis and enter the 'Aragami Shadow Council' regardless of everything!

Baron Tyrone walked to the window, stared at the night sky outside the window, and said in a deep voice: "Now, due to the last war, the original qi of the Treading Wind Ridge has been greatly damaged, and it is no longer able to fight for it. And Razor Ridge is also in turmoil due to internal reasons, which can be ignored in the short term. ”

"So take this opportunity, we will finish our work and take the Sweetwater Oasis! At that time, when I enter the 'Aragami Shadow Council' and become an epic councilor! The secrets of this world will be opened to me, and then Adolf's position will also be divided!"

Qiao Xi clenched his fists and said excitedly: "Our Wellington family will become the new masters of the Land of Three Ridges! At least, we can also compete with Adolf!"

"That's right. Baron Tyrone smiled, "Immediately step up preparations and prepare for a general attack." Victory is just around the corner. ”

"Obey!" Qiao Xi stood up straight and gave a military salute.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

The scout from the intelligence department came in and said loudly: "Honorable lord, the werewolf army of Razor Ridge has suddenly appeared in the Luoxia Heights. According to the intelligence, it is a private army led by William, and the purpose is unknown!"

"William?" Baron Tyrone and Qiao Xi glanced at each other.

"Here comes the stepping stone to victory, Qiao Xi. Baron Tyrone laughed, his eyes flashing fiercely, and said in a deep voice, "A werewolf illegitimate son who wants to prove his military exploits?

"Then kill William first!"

Qiao Xi said proudly: "For our general attack, blow the horn of victory!"

After speaking, Qiao Xi tidied up his clothes and strode out of the door.

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

Under the moonlight, the entire wilderness outside Xijing City seemed lonely and calm.

The wind and sand blew, causing the thorn bushes to tremble.

Suddenly, a dark green, fishy light and shadow slowly emerged.

In the light and shadow, it is a hound as big as a calf.

This hound is like a demon dog from hell. In the cracks of the hideous fur and carapace, dark green magma flowed, and a strong fishy smell wafted away.

It had three ugly heads juxtaposed, a total of six pairs of eyes, staring at the far winding Xijing city wall in front of it, and the three goddess fortresses outside the city at night.

"Interesting find, hehe......" The cleft of the center skull grinned, its full mouth of fangs jagged out, dripping dark green saliva from it.

"Shrink down, fools! Avoid exposure! We are the scouts of Councillor Gargamel, not the warriors who have come to siege the city. The head on the left said coldly.

"Fuck them, these backward bastards, I can tear a whole piece apart with one claw!" the head on the right side growled, exclaiming excitedly.

"It's hard to get out and hang out, don't be impulsive. Maybe let's look for it, is there any good food and wine, is there any beautiful woman?"

After a while, the three-headed hound took on the shape of a kitten, small and flexible. But the dark green veins are still there, just the foul lava no longer flows. Moreover, the three heads shrunk into one.

"Well, I smell roses, and the smell of fine wine and beautiful colors. Center's head swayed, and he jumped forward merrily, running towards the Dark Rose Manor.
