20 Everywhere there is political struggle

When Simon and Vicky were cleaning up on the battlefield, Simon was meticulously absorbing the remaining energy with the staff of the Zardum Devourer, with a grim expression, and no one within a radius of ten meters dared to approach him except Vicky.

"Lord Simon!" Alex waved heartlessly. "I have something to report to you!"

Vicky, who followed behind Simon, gave them a resentful look, clearly upset that they had "interfered" with her and Simon's personal time.

Xia lowered her eyes, feeling a little sad in her heart. Vicky was clearly hostile to her now.

"Vicky, what a fool." She heard Mick's voice whisper, "Do you think you'll have a chance by following Mentor Simon?" ”

Thea looked at Mick in surprise. Mick didn't look at her, just continued to mumble under his breath. "If it were useful to keep an eye on people, I'm afraid the ladies of the Undercity would have lined up to marry Mentor Simon."

"So...... To sum up, what do you mean is that I have to rush back to the Undercity as soon as possible? After listening to Alex's report, Simon looked at Alex sideways and said without a trace of expression.

Alex couldn't see any mood swings in Simon's deep, dark eyes, and couldn't help but swallow. Although there is no expression, it ...... Lord Simon is obviously surrounded by my very unhappy aura, and no one should be close!! Who the hell and how did he offend him? Alex glanced curiously at the three women standing beside him. Hell, if he wasn't in a hurry to see Mick, he wouldn't want to be this microphone. However, who told him to do it, he cursed that cunning fellow of Severon to beat a bachelor to the end in his life!

However, for now...... Alex decisively pulled people to resist hatred and sent him to death, and he carried the black pot, isn't it fair and reasonable? "Not what I meant, it's Severn!"

Simon raised his good-looking eyebrows, "Why?" ”

"Uh......" Alex was almost in tears, he was just a microphone, okay. A good soldier doesn't say that he must also be a good politician, isn't it good that a soldier just needs to obey orders? His last bit of wit made him decide to be shameless to the end. "That's what Severn said, and he said that the adults would understand what he meant."

Simon scoffed, "With Severen's brains, it's already very difficult for him to guard Brill's one-acre three-point land." If something so big happens, what's the difference if I go back to the Undercity one day earlier and one day later. But...... Mick, I'd like to hear your thoughts. It's also the duty of a good wife to help your husband with a muscular brain solve his doubts, isn't it? ”

Thea, who was on the sidelines, noticed that although Mick hadn't spoken since the beginning, it was clear that she had been frowning and thinking.

Hearing Simon's roll call at this moment, Mick looked up in a interrupted train of thought. She seemed to be sorting out her thoughts, and said carefully and carefully. "Brill is the stronghold between Undercity and Deathknell, and our main military base in the Tirisfard Glades. In order to check and balance supervision and prevent the emergence of a situation of one word hall, the military and the government have always been separated, and the senior executive officers of the armed forces and the senior consuls of administrative affairs have jointly managed and operated. The consuls were responsible for handling internal affairs, and the executive officers were responsible for military operations. And this time something so big, Her Majesty must hold him accountable. ”

Liability? Sia couldn't help but follow Mick's train of thought together. Any king would be furious if the most important base of his kingdom was leaked and attacked, but what does this have to do with Simon? Isn't this kind of anger all borne by the top and solved by introducing scapegoats? Does it have anything to do with them?

She looked at Simon, she had never paid attention to Simon's outfit, but also because Simon's dress was extremely low-key, a black robe shrouded in the same black ink-like da, whether it was a dahu or a robe, there were no gorgeous magic patterns on it, just the most ordinary style. However, Thea's gaze lingered for a moment on the staff of the Zardum Devourer in Simon's hand.

Simon ...... Is he the upper echelon of the Forsaken?

Even if it's a high-level person, it doesn't matter, after all, Simon was personally involved in the battle and provided important information. In any case, Simon is a meritorious man.

Thinking of this, Sia breathed a sigh of relief as if comforting herself, and continued to listen carefully to Mick's analysis.

"The problem is...... Who will be responsible! Severon was lucky to have Alex report to him, and he showed great atonement for his sins. As for our honorable Executive, if I'm not mistaken, it should have been someone recommended by your old "friend" Lin Duen. At this point, Mick stopped.

"So, Severn is worried that Lin Duen will preemptively speak to the queen and make Her Majesty make a judgment against us, so he asked us to leave for the Undercity as soon as possible?" Shia asked aloud.

"It's just a clown...... There is nothing to worry about at all. Simon replied lightly, his fingers gently stroking his staff.

Alex, who was nervous, inexplicably felt that Simon's mood seemed to be much better all of a sudden, and he hurriedly asked, "Then, my lord, do you want to go on the road first, Severn specially arranged for me to have one of the best night bats." If you take it, you can go to the Undercity tomorrow...... Finish! ”

It was Mick who stomped on his foot again, causing him to swallow his words in pain.

"I don't think so, let's do it at our pace, huh...... This time, you can ask Segard to arrange a carriage for us, after a big battle, my body is seriously damaged," Simon's gaze swept over everyone one by one, "I need to rest, the long journey will be very nerve-wracking for me as a weak warlock, and besides, I'm really looking forward to what interesting reactions will there be from the Undercity?" Simon smiled softly, and then simply left to consult Segard about the carriage. Vicky hurriedly followed.

When Simon was gone, Thea asked Mick, "Who is that Lindoon?" ”

"It's the opponent of Mentor Simon, although Mentor Simon never takes him seriously. He often does black hands behind his back.,What a nasty guy.。 Mick took a sip.

Looking at Thea's weird expression, Mick couldn't help but smile. "There's going to be political struggle anywhere, dear, really, I thought you'd know that very well?"

After all, once upon a time, you also stood above everyone!
