Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Richard shook his head in his mind, believing that the speculation was not realistic.

It's not that Sauron can't think of this, but even if he thinks about it, the result is difficult to control, and he won't really choose to do it.

After all, the Sika Kingdom is a big country, and the domestic situation is very complicated, especially in the face of a great enemy and the possibility of destroying the country, everything can happen. It may get worse, but it may become unanimous externally. If it is the latter, such a long delay will inevitably give the other side a chance to breathe, leading to a change in the war that would have been won.

And this, absolutely not wanted, Sauron.

So what's going on?

Confused, Richard heard a report from one of his subordinates, and another person came to visit him, and he was different from the others, saying that it was his friend.

His friends?

Confused, Richard met with the visitor, and then he realized who it was.

It turned out to be Jasmine's men.

One was the lame wizard Sue, who remembered that the other party was very good at wind spells, and although he was missing one leg, he could run faster than a two-legged wizard.

The other is a one-eyed dragon with only one eye, who is good at fire spells, and wears a signature red robe like before, which is difficult to recognize.

met the two in the living room, briefly inquired about the purpose of the visit, and the other party told him frankly without concealment: he wanted to win his support.

Jasmine, as a blood princess, is currently a very powerful rebel force in the Sika Kingdom, and wants to overthrow the current royal rule and establish a new kingdom. This, and the current alliance, is where there are some areas where we can cooperate.

Jasmine sent two of them, but she had already learned that he was the second-in-command advisor of the Alliance's army, so she wanted to get a probe from him and figure out what the Alliance wanted to do next. If possible, willing to cooperate without destroying the kingdom of Sika.

But the problem is, he doesn't even know what the alliance wants to do next, how can he reveal it to the other party?

Helplessly, he sent the other party away, saying that it was not the time to cooperate at present, and when the time came, he would take the initiative to contact the other party.

After sending off Jasmine's men, Richard became genuinely curious about Sauron's actions.

He could guess that Sauron's recent frequent visits to him and the halting of the army must have been a conspiracy. And this conspiracy is definitely not as simple as guessing casually, otherwise it would not be possible to let Sauron, the commander of the army, personally perform and pull him along.

If there were no accidents, it is likely that the conspiracy was made at the beginning of the war, and Oscar's condition that he become the army's command adviser was a foreshadowing.

After all, according to common sense, no country will directly appoint a person with no status, let the other party become the second-in-command of the army, and entrust the fate of a country to it.

In doing so, it can only be said that the plot is very big, and we are willing to pay a certain price and risk for this.

At first, he wanted to find out the truth, but to no avail.

Now, instead of looking for the truth, it turns out to be revealed little by little.

So, what could it be?

Next, Sauron continued to visit, and Richard no longer blindly let the other party drink tea alone in the living room, but would also talk to the other party for a while if he was not busy with research.

He didn't think that Sauron would really tell him the secret, he just wanted to understand from the conversation, from the side, how far away from revealing everything.

If you can't do it, you should make friends with Sauron.

In this way, he and Sauron really got to know each other, and the "friendliness" increased.

Slowly, when Sauron visits again, he will bring some homemade petal tea to shareFrom this point of view, the other party is indeed not used to drinking the wheat tea that has been brewing for each other, but he is forced to save face, so he can't bear to say it, and he has to make a look of savoring it, which is really hard.

Slowly, Sauron also became a little interested in the graduate students that Richard had been coming, and Richard did not hide his selfishness, in his opinion, even if he taught the other party by hand, he did not think that the other party could learn to invite the other party to observe the latest spell test several times.

In the garden that served as a testing ground for outside spells, Sauron watched as Bibi was ravaged again and again, rewarded with only a loaf of bread, a small bottle of wine, or a little other food.

Sauron said with some unbearable euphemism: Isn't this kind of method a bit too inhumane and stingy? If the economic aspect is really insufficient, the army can provide resources to let this poor girl eat enough and then be beaten...... After all, even if the most heinous criminals are beheaded, they still have to eat a full meal, right?

Of course, Sauron only expressed it euphemistically, and focused more on the effects of Richard's spells. As an ordinary person without extraordinary strength, he can't give any insight from the perspective of a wizard, but he still gives a high evaluation of Richard's application of "extraordinary cohesion" and "blood energy transcendent factor binding force", thinking that if the two are combined, it is simply an excellent cage.

"It's really a complete test, it's not just a cage. Richard spoke.

"What could that be?" asked Sauron, curious.

Richard smiled mysteriously: "This is going to be kept secret, just like you haven't told me why you deceived your staff officers in my name, and I won't tell you what the ultimate effect of my spell idea is." ”

"Okay. Sauron spread his hands helplessly, paused, and said, "Actually, it's not impossible for me to tell you the reason, but it's not time yet. When the time comes, I don't think you'll have to tell you, you'll understand everything. ”

"Even?!" Richard raised his eyebrows, feeling that the other party was perfunctory to him, a bit like him perfunctory Jasmine's subordinates, but it was undeniable that the other party really knew the inside story, and asked, "Then when will it be time?"

"It's coming, it's coming. Sauron said.

And just like that, time passed day by day.

In the blink of an eye, it was already a month after the battle of Kasha City.

A lot has happened and a lot has changed in this month.

For example, the alliance has mobilized a lot of second-line troops from the country to station in the occupied areas to maintain order and consolidate law and order. In the territory of the Sika Kingdom, the blood princess Jasmine officially rebelled, set up a banner, and gathered many people to oppose the royal family.

But in the big picture, the changes are not much.

Although the alliance mobilized a lot of second-line troops, the Sika people in the occupied area were still extremely loyal, and the chaos did not ease much, and could only maintain a semblance of order. And the official rebellion of the blood princess Jasmine only caused a slight wave in the Sika Kingdom, and the people gathered together could not compete with the Sika army at all, and the Sika army did not have much energy to pay attention to the blood princess Jasmine, and was more of a confrontation with the alliance army in a defensive state.

During the confrontation between the two teams, on an ordinary afternoon, Sauron visited Richard again.

This time, however, Sauron did not go to the parlor for tea, but went straight into the garden and found Richard, who was testing his spells.

Looking at Sauron with a serious expression, Richard raised his eyebrows, felt a little abnormal, and said with some speculation: "Could it be ...... Is it a special day?"

"Yes, today is a special day. Sauron said, "Your Excellency Richard, this time has disturbed you, if there is no accident, today may be the last time I visit you." ”

"So...... When you said that time, it had arrived?" Richard narrowed.

"No, it's not there yet. Sauron shook his head, then changed his tone, "But ...... It's close, it's close......"

"Well, I'll visit you again if I have a chance in the future. Sorren Liso said goodbye, and walked out of the garden without looking back, saying as he went, "If you have some free time, you can pay attention to the movement on the street these days, and also pay attention to your own safety, I can only say so much, goodbye." ”

With that last word, Sauron's figure disappeared outside the garden gate.
