"It's a very novel and alternative point of view, indeed. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Xia Lan said silently.

"In fact, this is not the first bold conjecture put forward by the lower ancestors." "It is said that this is an assumption revealed by the Supreme Witch Throne, which was only one step away from the final realm of the law, and it was this lord who used thunder to pinch the gathering of all the leaders of the great forces in Eldran, thus giving birth to the action of exploring the world. ”

"It's unimaginable." Xia Lan sighed for a long time.

"Before that, the current Lord Witch Throne seemed to be aware of the great danger hidden behind this operation, so he deliberately found the ancestor and truthfully explained a lot of things, hoping to record the truth of this operation forever for future generations." Berlant sighed deeply and said, "I didn't expect that the result was not what the Lord expected, not only was there no news after they left Eldran, but there was even a cataclysm that destroyed the entire Silver Age. ”

"So your ancestors guessed it was caused by outsiders??" Charland Road.

"Who else but an outsider would have such energy?" Berlant asked rhetorically.

In this regard, Xia Lan was silent.

"I'm sorry, I'm getting a little cranky." Belant, who noticed the change in mentality, calmed down and said.

"I think this incident may have affected your ancestors or family at the same time." Charland Road.

"Yes, you guessed it right." Berlant looked at him, and said with a faint sadness on his face: "Since the advent of the era of natural disasters, the family has been infected with a curse that cannot be lifted, this curse cannot be seen at all on weekdays, and it will not affect our lives, but ...... Once we live to be fifty years old, every person of the right age in the family will die inexplicably, and no one has ever been able to break this curse and live to be fifty-one. ”

Hiss -

Xia Lan couldn't help but take a cold breath.

"Is this the punishment of the outsiders for you?"

"Hehe-" Berlant smiled bitterly, taking it as a tacit. "So can you imagine? Once the most mysterious and long-standing family, it has now fallen to the point of withering, and in another hundred years, I am afraid that Eldran will no longer have a watchman of history. ”

"And then?" Xia Lan asked.

"Later? Do you know what despair after the collapse of faith is? If everything in Elderland is set for the beginning and end by outsiders, then what is the point of existence for us proud watchmen of history? "Even though we had informed all the big men of Elderland about the news, they were as cold as a stone and turned a blind eye, and in the end this secret was completely buried in the dust of history, and from then on, the separation of the family was no longer inevitable." ”

"So you're convinced of the outsider's conjecture?" Charland Road.

"What's the use of believing or not believing?" "At the end of the day, we are all captive animals, and no matter how much we struggle, we can't escape our predestined fate. In that case, why can't we abandon our troubles and live happily, at least so that we can still feel a little bit of humble freedom. ”

“……”

In addition to sadness, Xia Lan could no longer find a description at this time.

"I wonder, why are you asking that?" Belante, who had adjusted his mood, broke the silence.

"Because lately I've always felt like everything I'm doing is the result of a deliberate arrangement." Charland Road.

"Very unreal, right?" Berlante Road.

"To be exact, what seems normal is actually contrary." Charland Road.

"Unfortunately, even if you can perceive it, you can't change it." Berlante Road.

“…… I want to be quiet and thank you for your confession tonight. ”

……

……

The next day, Xia Lan and Berlant seemed to have tacitly forgotten last night's conversation, and their minds were focused on the next move, and there were some things that were unanswered.

After leaving Doumer, the army prepared to head to the Fernanto Border Forest, in order to investigate whether the army invaded by the Heather Empire not long ago was related to the Empire's annihilation of Durmel.

Long before the march, the scouts in charge of reconnaissance had already been dispatched in advance, and they would know the specific situation when they returned before evening, and due to secrecy, Xia Lan did not alarm the garrisons of nearby towns along the way, as quietly as they came.

The scenery in the wilderness is beautiful, in the case of sunny weather, the depressed and tense mood is slowly relieved, the life of marching and fighting all year round, everyone has their own way to relax their nerves, and Xia Lan's few preferences are to empty their heads and enjoy the scenery.

He didn't want to live too tired, even though he still lived a tired life.

The war changes every day, and the only constant is that the iron hooves of the Heather Empire are always at a pace of expansion, but the Templars never promote this kind of negative news, they will only tell you that such and such a place has successfully defended against the invasion of the Empire, and such and such a place has ambushed and annihilated an Imperial Ranger, and the style of reporting good news but not bad news has made it difficult for the lower classes to clearly understand how bad the situation of the war is.

The Heather Empire has always been the center of the Elderan civilization, and its war potential is extremely strong, and from the full-scale invasion of the violent army to the present, the Heather Empire never seems to have shown a lack of stamina. According to the lurking detailed returns, the Heather Empire has shown more of a sense of ease in the face of today's excellent war situation, and the dividends brought by the war have inspired the enthusiasm of countless people in the empire to join the army.

Unfortunately, the Templars could no longer afford a large-scale battle, and the supply of soldiers alone was enough to give the Templars a headache.

Everyone is now waiting to see how the Templars will turn around the inevitable situation in front of them.

As night fell, the returning scouts brought with them a fortunate and unfortunate piece of information.

The Fernanto Border Forest still houses a rather stealthy legion.

Fortunately, it was because Xia Lan could judge that this army was definitely related to the subsequent plans of the Heather Empire.

It is said that it is unfortunate because Xia Lan is simply unable to deal with this legion.

In the scout's return, this legion is large in number and well-armed, and should belong to the most elite gold-level legion in the Heather Empire's military establishment. There are only twenty gold-level legions in the entire Heather Empire, and eleven of them are stationed along the Gartavia Line.

Xia Lan had never heard of the transfer of the Heather Empire on the front line, and it was self-evident that this gold-level army must be a covert arrangement of the Heather Empire.

"The Heather Empire's backhand is supposed to be in this legion."

In the commander's tent, Xia Lan stood in front of the map with a serious expression and discussed the matter with Berant.

"The Bronze Legion in the original intelligence has become the Golden Legion, and on the surface, it is likely that things will be the Heather Empire's backhand, and the partial army that infiltrated the Gartavia Line may be just a striking cover-up." Berlant analyzed carefully.

"But geographically, the Fernanto Border Forest is not a good place to launch a surprise attack." Xia Lan frowned and said suspiciously.

"Perhaps, this is just one part of the Heather Empire's plot against the Gartavia." Berante said cautiously: "From the side of the Heather Empire, if I were Gustav, I would never expect a strange soldier to change the situation of the war. ”

"In fact, the Heather Empire has made it clear that it will be able to break through the Gartavia defense line sooner or later with the momentum of the upright and righteous conspiracy, but from the information we have learned, the Heather Empire has chosen a risky conspiracy approach? Could it be that the Heather Empire does not have enough time and patience to spend it with us? "Charland.

"At the beginning of the Heather Empire's invasion, it did use a quick lightning offensive, and then it changed its strategy and began to fight steadily, and now the Heather Empire's actions are a little blind and reckless, which is really not like the style of the Heather Empire's war." Berlante Road.

"Could it be that there is an unknown upheaval within the Heather Empire?" Xia Lan guessed.

"It's very unlikely, after all, it's hard to hide such a big thing from the eyes and ears of the Templar." Berlante Road.

"Report this matter to the Templars, we alone can't solve the problem at hand." Xia Lan sighed.

"Agreed." Berlant agreed, "I'd love to know the Templar's answer. ”

Within three days, the Sanctuary gave a clear reply, and at the same time, Xia Lan and Berant were stunned for a long time.

The Templar ordered Charan to assemble a nearby garrison within half a month to defeat the Imperial Legion in the Border Forest of Fernanto.

At that time, Xia Lan's first reaction was that the order sent by the Holy Hall had been forged?! But after repeatedly confirming with the Templar, he realized that the order was actually true!

"Is the Templar going to send you to death?"

Berant, who has always been steady, couldn't hide the anger in his heart.

"It's a fool's dream to defeat a gold-level legion based on the level of the nearby garrison! In terms of numbers and equipment alone, we are far inferior to each other, and this is not at all something that can be compensated for by battlefield strategy, is it true that the Templar is an all-powerful living military god? Not even if you exchange Gustav for it! ”

"But we have to carry out this order." Xia Lan said expressionlessly.

"If the Templar is crazy, are you going to go crazy with you?" Berlante Road.

"You and I should both know the consequences of refusing to carry out this order." Xia Lan said in a cold voice.

"Is it possible...... Does anyone inside the Templar really want you dead? Berant's eyes widened.

"When it comes to issues involving interests, it is inevitable that there will be dirty and dirty things." Charland Road.

"Huh...... At this time, the Holy Church is still conspiring and calculating, and they deserve to be reduced to today's situation! Berrant gritted his teeth. Do you know who is scheming on you? ”

"If it is not bad, it should be the big people behind the support of the other candidates for the Holy Son, and this order can obviously know that they have joined forces." Xia Lan said with a cold gaze: "They want to kick me out of the game in advance." (To be continued.) )
