Chapter 319: It Makes Me Cold
I can't comment on the harvest of this trip to the territory, because Fino's parents not only did not die, but the relationship with the current lord who had lost his position was unexpectedly good, so that the task of regaining the lordship for Fino had to be temporarily suspended. \.\
However, as compensation, I also learned a clue to a new mission from Rest, a mysterious monster that had been sealed away in an unknown location in Rest's territory.
The appearance of the monster is unknown, according to Rest, this monster has no reason and communication ability, and will only keep attacking anything it sees in front of it, by the way, this monster attacks or real damage, and the parts it rubs are directly gone, and they are not treated afterwards.
It was late at night, so instead of returning to Timelais after leaving Leist's territory, I summoned the Dark Priests to set up a small camp on the spot.
Diana was nowhere to be seen for the time being, so the only guards left by my side were Cyno and a small group of undead troops, and the reason for Diana's departure was that she had a personal matter to do, and thinking back to the declaration she made under the city before the siege, I thought that the soldier with trembling hands would probably be the only victim in this siege.
The temporary territory was difficult, but with the fire and the sleeping bag that the Dark Priest had somehow conjured, I didn't get cold, and after a brief hesitation, I didn't choose to sleep, but took out the Beatrice Love Seed that I had with me, and tried to contact Beatrice.
I still didn't understand how to use the love species, but even though it was late at night, Beatrice on the other end was still quick to set up a call.
Xu Mo, what's going on over there? I was probably surprised that I chose to contact this late at night. Beatrice's tone was not as calm as before, and there was even a little anxiety in it.
No, it's just that I just started with important information, so I asked you to help analyze it. After reassuring Beatrice first, I relayed the conversation I had just had with Lester to her, but when I finished speaking, Beatrice on the other end suddenly fell silent.
Had it not been for the rustling of writing, the silence would have been so long that I would have almost thought Beatrice had accidentally fallen asleep during the call.
Well, I roughly get it. Beatrice's voice came again, and it seemed that she had come to the conclusion that although she had expected that Fino's family had secrets, she did not expect that what they had was actually the research materials left by the previous demon king.
Whether it was really left by the previous demon king is still up for debate. It's just that the other party's conditions have been opened obviously. It is to make an alliance with us, I tried to attack the castle of Lester just now, although it is said that the other party suddenly attacked when the other party was defenseless, but the soldiers under him are really too bad to say. Even though I knew Beatrice couldn't see me. I still shook my head. It is suspected that the reason why Lester gave the information was that the diary left by the previous Demon King did not specifically mention it. So it's very likely that this is just the result of a research organization affiliated with the Demon King.
Knowing the details of the other side and the true face of the common enemy, it is best not to conclude an alliance treaty at the moment. Beatrice succinctly summarized my next course of action, but then she immediately continued: Compared to Xu Mo's own decision, the above is just a trivial analysis. Even if you don't include references, it's okay.
Well, I just have to do whatever I want. Following Beatrice's usual speaking pattern, I preemptively said the lines she was going to speak later.
That's true, but Xu Mo, you should have another topic to discuss if you contact me this time, right?
Ahh
I exchanged glances with Cyno, who was staying, and Cyno got up and walked out of the tent to get windy, and I placed a soundproof barrier around the tent.
After making sure that nothing was wrong, I rubbed my cheeks with my hands and plucked up the courage to say: I am going to resign from my position as a tutor in the academy.
I understand. Beatrice accepted the fact without a second word, to put it mildly.
Although I had thought about it before, your attitude was really calm.
It was not surprising that Xu Mo would make such a decision, not to mention that Xu Mo's resignation letter was hidden under the bed in the room, and basically except for Cyno, who didn't often stay in the academy dormitory, me, Diana, and Luvica had read the letter before.
…… What about my rights? People around me know I'm going to quit.
Beatrice wisely avoided the question, and said instead: Even if you haven't read the letter, you can actually guess, after all, Xu Mo is the Demon King, and it is impossible for him to stay in the academy for too long, and listening to Xu Mo, you just led the undead army to attack the city, can I judge that Xu Mo You have planned to let the Demon King City really come to the fore?
I took a deep breath before replying, Beatrice's appearance made me a little hairy, and it was really uncomfortable for me to feel like my thoughts were being explored by others.
Yes, the visit of Lucario and the Academy was just an accident in the afterlife, and when I first took in Fino, I was scheduled to let the Demon King City appear in front of everyone while I helped her regain the territory, but the plan never compares to the change, and there were too many things after that, and as a result, the original plan was changed again and again. There was tiredness in my tone, and when one day I suddenly wanted to do something seriously but I always met with an accident, just like the attack on the castle today, I thought I could do it and wreak havoc, but it turned out that Lester was not an enemy in the real sense of the word.
I think Xu Mo thought too much. Beatrice neither hit nor comforted, but said flatly: "The Xu Mo I know is a courageous person, he does not consider the substantive benefits and consequences, as long as he thinks it is interesting, he will do it, instead of worrying about the gains and losses when faced with a choice.
How do I think that's swearing. Three black lines hung down my forehead, and the more I listened, the more I realized how unreliable I was in the eyes of others.
Rather than regretting it because you don't do it, you would rather regret it after doing it - this sentence is what Xu Mo said in the past, many things in the world are originally one and two. As long as you don't actually try, you will never know whether the final result will be good or bad, and since you can't get the best conclusion no matter how you think about it, then Xu Mo might as well decide according to your intuition. As if afraid that I wouldn't be able to understand, Beatrice paused and said: I understand that Xu Mo's concern is nothing more than the fear that Lester will not hand over the research materials later, and that he will be used as cannon fodder after forming an alliance......
I interrupted Beatrice abruptly and hurriedly, "Wait, what did you just say?"
Lester was reluctant to hand over the research materials.
Next sentence!
After forming an alliance, it will be used as cannon fodder.
Yes, that's it! I clenched my fist and slammed it into the palm of my left hand, no wonder Lester was there even if he faced my siege just now, in fact, to him I was just an unplanned being. If the seal is broken. It's the elite troops of Timelet City who are really responsible for dealing with the monsters, and the reason why I'm trying to get them together is just to do it.
Squinted at Cyno outside the tent, thinking that if Lester hadn't seen Cyno's storage by my side, he might not have bothered to bring up even the most basic solicitation. I'll just be in charge of protecting Fino.
Leggley was a man of Lester. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that Lester knew the truth that I was the Demon King. However, even if he knew this, he probably wouldn't treat me as a real demon king, at most as a small lord who wanted to fight for the position of demon king.
The soldiers of the city of Timeleth are the main force. Then annex the small lord of the countryside, and use the power of his famous heroic slasher to contend with the unknown monster head-on, so as to compensate for the lack of top personal standing in the Knights, and the Rococona tribal state will definitely send reinforcements during the frontline troops, as long as they can support until the reinforcements arrive, the family and the territory can be saved.
Damn, that damn old rabbit! I got up angrily, but the roar didn't reach the sky thanks to the soundproof barrier, only Cyno and Beatrice, who was talking to me with her lover, as witnesses.
If Xu Mo is really angry, then we can cut off Fino's finger and mail it over. Beatrice still spoke in the same calm tone, but the words that came out of her mouth could not have been more cruel: considering the rise and fall of the descendants and the family, Lester would most likely choose to abandon Fino, but we can continue to mail the corpses to the past, and in the long run, the morale of their family will be damaged, depending on the situation, and this can even make Fino's parents hate Lester, thus leading to a break between the two sides.
I shuddered: is there a way to be less vicious.
There is naturally a way not to be so vicious, since the hole card that Lester relies on is Timelet City, then Xu Mo can directly draw this hole card, forcing Lester to choose to take refuge in us.
Draw your hole cards? But the city of Timeles is well built there, so should I bombard it with a forbidden spell? Imagining the image of a huge meteorite falling from the sky and then hitting the city of Timelet and a mushroom cloud rising from the ground, I quickly shook my head from side to side: No, this is too inhuman.
Since Xu Mo was against the use of forbidden spells, there was only one way left.
Not to mention letting Ruvica carry out the annihilation operation, it is actually no different from throwing the forbidden spell with my own hands. I touched my nose: I don't have much in my heart if I just kill soldiers, but even cutting innocent people together is too much of a lower limit, not to mention that whether it is a forbidden spell or letting Luvica release the pressure, the result is that the city of Timles is completely flattened, and as a result, I really can't imagine the benefits of turning against the Rococona tribal state for a land that has nothing.
So what is Xu Mo going to do?
It's simple, although I don't plan to use the forbidden spell and the humanoid weapon of Luvica, but I haven't said that I won't fight Timeles from beginning to end, and compared with the broken territory that Reste has nothing, I believe that the Timroys strategy battle will be quite exciting. I snapped my fingers, raised my arms in the tent and said: Hit Timerles, grab money, grab food, grab women!
Finally, he buried them alive in one go.
Beatrice's words were like a bucket of cold water, pouring me cold. (To be continued!)
