said that it was "think about it", but in fact he didn't even ask about the payment, in fact, he just refused politely, which made the bishop on the stage a little embarrassed.

However, the Pope is also an old-timer after all, so he just smiled and waved his hand, saying that the current list of participants in the war has not yet been determined, so he can reply without hurrying, and cleverly rounded the atmosphere back.

At the follow-up meeting, the situation in the Iberian Peninsula was explained in a general way: the undead army seems to have used some kind of extraordinary technology called the "dark canopy" to block surveillance satellites and communications electromagnetic waves on a large scale.

It is equivalent to saying that the Holy See has completely lost its surveillance of the Iberian Peninsula, and only the people who have escaped from the dark canopy are left with only a few words of information.

In short, the situation inside the Iberian Peninsula is completely unclear, but judging by the fact that there are few messages from the Kingdom of Aragone-Castia, it can probably be guessed that it is very dangerous.

So the meeting ended hastily in a solemn and solemn atmosphere, and everyone was not in a good mood when they left.

Although the plot of the undead kingdom to go north had been expected for a long time, when it really happened, it still made the Holy See and the Italian giants feel full of pressure.

On the other hand, the refusal of Aske, the leader of the Azure Sword, could not help but increase everyone's pessimistic expectations.

Soon Nora was caught in the hands of her brother and sister, with Valian representing the Holy See and Capacilline representing Licinius frantically lobbying Nora to blow the pillow wind in order to bring the Lord Asker back to his heart.

Nora was also extremely speechless. Since the six major mercenary groups on the mainland have all participated in the war, what is the point of our Azure Sword participating in the war or not? We're not a big mercenary group with thousands of members......

She didn't want to trouble the head of the regiment with this kind of thing, so she could only learn Asker's tone and refuse, "I'll think about it again." This made both Valian and Capacille very unhappy.

Wait, you haven't married yet, Nola! Why do you start talking for your husband now? What about our obedient and well-behaved little sister in the past?

Annoyed by the two, Nora can only agree to go to Asker.

Back on Hearthfire Island, Nora wandered through the grove below, wondering what to tell Asker about this.

She didn't want to give the head of the regiment the impression of "helping the family speak", and besides, it was indeed her brothers and sisters who went too far. Why did you say that our small mercenary group was sent to Iberia to exterminate the undead?

Excessively.

As she was hesitating, Nora saw a figure come out from behind the tree, and it seemed that she had been waiting for her for a long time.

Medea.

If someone asks Nora what her relationship with Medea is, she will probably reply, "A friend who has an awkward relationship with her once in a while, but who actually has a good relationship."

In fact, aside from the relationship between the co-competing leaders, Nora did not have any obvious ill feelings towards Medea.

Although Miss Succubus has a bad stomach, Nora thinks it's just a matter of personality, maybe some of it comes from the influence of the bloodline sequence...... In short, it's similar to Peggy, and it's a small problem that "can be corrected as long as you are patient and enlightened".

Medea is also well aware of Nola's perception. Although she couldn't read Nola's mind, she could feel it in her character and words.

If I had to describe it, it was like a "mother" personality in the traditional sense.

Of course, Medea doesn't find this annoying thing about "Mother Nola", or more precisely, it couldn't be better - after all, silly white sweet is easier to predict, calculate, and deal with.

"Nola." Medea greeted her with a smile, "Are you here to find Asker?" ”

"Hmm." Nora looked embarrassed, and Medea pretended not to see it, and continued:

"Actually, I also came to him......"

"Really?" Nora smiled softly.

She certainly understands Medea's character. Back then, in order to quickly upgrade and become stronger, he could even "run away" without hesitation to follow Asker.

This time, after learning about Asker's "acceleration plan", he must have left everything behind and only thought about upgrading as soon as possible, right? Not wanting the team to be drawn into the troubled waters of distant war is also a judgment that Medea will naturally make.

"Well, I know what you mean." Nora ran her fingers through the hair hanging down from the side of her face and whispered, "The war in the Iberian Peninsula is indeed beyond our reach. I'd be understandable if Asker chose not to go to war in the end. ”

"No, no, no." Medea hurriedly shook her head, "My opinion is that we should help the Holy See." ”

Nola: ???

She pursed her mouth slightly and looked at Medea in shock. I heard her say righteously:

"In other wars, it is just a change of regime, and our small mercenary group has no qualifications and no need to interfere. But the undead are different, Nola. ”

"The undead need to be replenished by corpses, so they will definitely target the inhabitants of the kingdom of Aragone-Castia. The fewer mercenaries who go to war, the more innocent civilians die in the war and massacres, can you bear to see the happy lives of these people completely destroyed, wives lose their husbands, children lose their parents, old people lose their children, and countless families fall apart? ”

Nola: ..................

Medea's righteous and awe-inspiring words were so emotional that she was even faintly touched.

But shouldn't that be Eleanor's line? It's so strange to say it from Miss Succubus's mouth! Hey, is she planning something bad again?

Such suspicions swirled in Nola's mind, and she was immediately ashamed to reject them.

Nola, Nora, how can you, with such ugly prejudice and discrimination, doubt your companions for no reason? Couldn't Medea have good motives and hearts? Why do you always subconsciously associate her in the bad way?

Thinking of this, Nora felt a little remorseful and guilty, and said to Medea in shame:

"Yes, you're right, we really should have a good talk with Asker."

Medea: ???

Wait, what does that mean? That is, I have already convinced her?

Suddenly transformed into a compassionate persona, Medea certainly knew that there were obvious flaws in this transformation, so she even prepared 7 different excuses to deal with any doubts and temptations that Nora might have.

However, she did not expect that Nora would believe her words and motives without any doubts......

For a while, the light of the noble quality called "selfless trust" that emanated from Nola's body on the opposite side made Medea, who was used to being gloomy, rarely feel a little ashamed of herself.

However, she quickly restrained her strange emotions and said with a smile:

"Great, I know you think so too, so let's go call Eleanor?"

"With Eleanor?" Nora was slightly stunned for a moment, and then showed a gentle smile, "Okay." ”
