… Jian quietly listened to Kai Jiaolin's words, and his heart was full of thoughts.

He knew that Catherine had been misled by Tren's remark about the Jadami continent, and she thought that she would leave Hammondale and never return, and develop on another continent with peace of mind.

If she had known that she had not left the continent of Erathia, but was just thinking of the island of Evermont to take shelter for a while, perhaps she would not have made such a decision.

Avoiding the other party's enthusiastic eyes that were suddenly full of anticipation, Jian Chen said lightly: "You are so optimistic about me? Are you sure I can make a difference? And aren't you afraid, after I become strong, one day in the future, I will be the enemy of the empire? The relationship between me and the current empire is not good, plus I am a person who holds grudges. It's a possibility! ”

Jian Chen's words made Catherine a little disappointed, because she had already heard the refusal in Jian Chen's words, but she did not intend to give up: "Of course I am optimistic about you, maybe you are very unhappy now, but as long as you are given a suitable environment, you will definitely soar into the sky, what you lack now is just a little luck and a little time, as for the question of whether you will be an enemy of the empire." ”

Catherine smiled bitterly before continuing: "This is really not a problem anymore, I have done my best to clear all obstacles to the re-emergence of the empire, if in such a situation, the empire still cannot escape the fate of destruction, it can only be said that the path of the empire has come to an end!" I've done enough for the Empire. This time, I thought I should do something for myself too! ”

"Of course, I don't want the Erathian Empire, which I love so much, to be overthrown by you, I hope you can promise me that even if you are strong in the future, you will not take the initiative to be an enemy of the Empire!"

Saying that, Catherine sighed: "Jian Chen, I am not standing in the position of the empire to decide this matter, but from the position of a friend in the position of seeking your help, as you said, if I bury these soldiers who are loyal to me like this, I will live the rest of my life in the repudiation of myself, I don't want to live that life, and I don't want my soldiers to die in vain, with your help, I am confident that they can minimize their losses in battle, and then after this war is over, You can take them with you, and I, too, can go back to Enloth in peace! ”

"I did become a bit extreme for the sake of the Empire before, and I did some excessive things to you, here, I apologize to you, but now, I have made it clear what I want to do! I hope you will not refuse my kindness, go to battle with me, show these soldiers your talent and ability, conquer their hearts, and I will help you and establish your prestige among them! Get ready for you to take over this army in the future! ”

Looking at Catherine's sincere eyes, Chen Li's original determination was a little shaken.

If things turned out as Catherine said, it would indeed be of great benefit to take over this army by herself, and this huge temptation made Jian Chen's heart move.

The rich experience of this army alone will benefit Chen Jian immensely when he forms a new army in the future.

What's more, this is a powerful army composed of elites in a hundred battles, and if it takes over, it will immediately be a powerful fighting force, which is undoubtedly of great significance for its own development on Evermont Island.

But can you still trust Catherine now? Could this be another conspiracy on her part?

And in the face of the Klegans, who have mastered magical magic, how much will this army be left in the end? Wouldn't it be too risky to do it yourself?

"I guess I need a little time to think about everything you said!" In the end, Jian Chen said to Catherine that he felt that it was necessary to discuss this matter with everyone before making a final decision.

Seeing that Jian Chen's tone was somewhat relaxed, Catherine agreed to Jian Chen's request, and she also understood. With such a major matter, Jian Chen should really think about it.

After all, this matter was too sudden for him.

However, Catherine also reminded Jian Chen. The army was about to be set off, and he didn't have much time to hesitate.

After sending Catherine away, Jian Chen immediately gathered everyone to discuss the feasibility of this matter.

As a result, as Jian Chen thought, most of the people questioned Catherine's intentions, and because of the detention of the female magician, everyone felt a lot more bad for Catherine.

In the words of Thor's troll patriarch Bruce, it's this woman who definitely has a conspiracy.

The discussion could not be fruitful, so Jian Chen simply dismissed the meeting, and then went to visit the female magician who was resting because of her weak body.

"You're here!" It seems that he had already guessed that Jian Chen would come. The female magician did not rest in bed as Chen Jian had explained before, but asked people to set up a chaise longue by the window of her room, half-lying on it and looking at the busy scene of Hammondale outside the window.

"I'm coming!" Chen Jian saw a low, went to the other party's side, and used his hand to straighten the other party's hair that was visible because of the wind, "Why don't you rest in bed?" ”

The sorceress didn't answer Jian Chen's slightly complaining question, chuckling and asking, "What happened?" I've been waiting for you for a while, what did Catherine say to you? ”

After Morryll's incident, the relationship between the two became significantly closer, and the sorceress struggled to move a seat as she spoke, motioning for Jian Chen to sit down next to her.

Obediently sitting down against the female magician, Chen Jian said: "You don't have to pay attention to these things, the most important thing for you now is to take care of your body, not worry about this and that!" ”

The sorceress shook her head and said, "I'm fine, it's just that I don't have the strength, it's much better than when you were lying on the bed and couldn't move, I remember that you seemed to be lying in bed for a long time, and the whole person looked sick, and I was angry when I saw you."

Speaking of the past, the female magician seemed to be in a good mood: "It's only last year, why is it as far away as more than ten years?."

Thinking of his embarrassment at that time, Jian Chen also smiled: "Yes, your face was always cold at that time, and you never smiled at me, in fact, I hated you very much at that time, the first time we met." You won't save me from death! ”

After a little more small talk, the sorceress turned the subject to Catherine again: "She must have some purpose for suddenly letting me go, what happened?" You didn't seem to be in a very good mood when you came in! Did she bring up anything that made you embarrassed? ”

Jian Chen sighed and said, "She wants me to take over her army!" ”

Then, Jian Chen explained what happened in detail: "I'm hesitant now, I don't know whether to agree or not, my intuition tells me that this time, Catherine shouldn't lie to me, but I'm worried that it will be too risky to do so, and I don't have much confidence in being able to take over that army smoothly!" ”

The female magician sighed and said softly: "You are like this, you always like to hesitate in the face of things, and you always have to make up your mind at the last moment, or you are forced into a desperate situation, and you will suddenly become wise and martial, and you will be judged like two people in peacetime, in fact, I think that many times, people don't think too much, and they will go in the right direction according to what they think, and thinking too much will only add some unnecessary troubles to themselves."

Chen Jian smiled bitterly: "That's true, but I always have to think a little more about this position, after all, my decision will affect too many people!" ”

As the two were talking, there was a knock at the door, and a soldier reported from outside the door: "My lord, there is the latest news from the Stone Castle!" ”

The soldier's report and the two letters that were then sent to Jian Chen Jian lifted his spirits, and when he opened the letters, he saw that sure enough, Tren and Malkem had successfully entered the stone castle, and the two of them had a safe journey without any accidents.

Now, the Hill Dwarves have begun construction of the magic portal under Trun's command, and if there are no accidents, maybe the magic teleportation can begin tomorrow.

In the letter, Hesfa specifically asked Jian Chen to prepare for receiving the dwarves, and Tren also reminded Jian Chen to prepare in his own letter.

According to Tren's estimates, it would take at least two or three times to move all the dwarves to Hammondal.

Although the dwarves have been decimated, they still have nearly 100,000 people, and they have too many supplies.

Because of this incident, Jian Chen finally decided to agree to Catherine's request.

The reason is very simple, the dwarves suddenly appeared in Hammondal, it is easy for people to misunderstand that they want to take refuge in Jian Chen, if the imperial side does not want to sit back and watch Jian Chen grow, it is very likely that there will be some action, after the matter of the elemental clan is completed, his situation in Hammondale has begun to become very delicate.

If this happens, it's time to refuse Catherine's kindness again, so that this woman who still has a huge influence in the empire will completely die to herself, just afraid that the situation will develop in a bad direction.

But if you agree to Catherine's proposal, the situation will be different, with Catherine to help her speak, the empire should not do anything to Jian Chen, so that the migration work can be carried out smoothly.

No matter how you look at it, from this matter, the benefits that Chen Jian can get are much more than the disadvantages.

After talking to the magician about his analysis and thoughts, Jian Chen looked at the magician with a soliciting look.

"What do you ask me to do like this? You know I don't know much about these curved things, and you already have a decision in mind, don't you? As I said, if you think it's the right direction, I'll support you no matter what decision you make! The sorceress said with a smile.
