Gawain had always found it difficult to see the ruler of Typhon's empire—but at least for the moment, he looked into Rosetta Augustus' wasteland eyes, and suddenly felt a tinge of familiarity.

After a brief moment of confusion, he realized that the familiarity came from Gawain Cecil's memories, but he couldn't tell where it came from or who it corresponded to.

The monstrosities that had rushed from the plains were almost wiped out, and thick black-red smoke was rising from their tattered wreckage, and only the last few wobbling, mutilated aberrations were still struggling to move forward between the smoke, completely torn apart by crossbow arrows, fireballs, or lightning bolts from the walls.

Rosetta watched all this silently, and suddenly broke the silence softly: "I have been thinking, thinking about how they are created, how they are maintained, how they are ...... acting"

"The birth of the aberrations is a mystery, but there is multiple evidence that they may be the victims of the mutated Gondor," Gawain said, "and as for their maintenance and action...... All I can say is that it has to do with the Chaos Magic environment in the wasteland. ”

Rosetta's expression remained unchanged, and her voice was low: "Your statement is consistent with what is recorded in ancient books, I have consulted all the materials related to aberrations, and they all say so, however...... Isn't that ironic? ”

Gawain didn't understand why the other party said this, but he thought that the other party would soon explain himself.

Sure enough, Rosetta continued after a brief silence: "The first generation of pioneers summed up these experiences and conjectures seven hundred years ago, and now that seven hundred years later, that's all we know - I don't know more than you about aberrations. ”

Gawain understood what Rosetta meant, and for a moment he didn't know what to say.

"This is outside the Great Wall," Rosetta said, raising his hand and pointing to the plain between the Great Wall and the Pinnacle Base, "Theoretically, it is impossible for monsters trapped in the Gondor Wasteland to escape, but in reality, there will always be wandering monsters on this plain, sometimes just ordinary corrupted monsters, sometimes aberrants. I sent my knights to find out where those monsters came from, but the knights saw them condense in the air...... They appeared out of thin air, what an irrational phenomenon. ”

Gawain nodded: "Monsters will be generated in the environment with a high concentration of Chaos Demonic Energy, which is a major feature of the wasteland, but the specific principle is still unknown. ”

"Yes, unknown, and there are many other unknown things, such as why these monsters that appeared out of thin air haven't covered the whole world until now - since they can't kill them all no matter how much they kill, what is the factor that limits their number limit? Why do they just wander around the wasteland most of the time? What constrains their range of activity? What is the difference between the aberrations that appear outside the Great Wall and those that appear inside the wasteland? ”

The ruler of Typhon threw out many questions, but apparently did not expect answers, and when he finished speaking, he simply closed his mouth, as if he had been immersed in his own questions, immersed in thought.

Gao Wen glanced at the plain in the southwest direction, and saw that the last monster had begun to gradually turn into black-red smoke, and he suddenly moved in his heart and asked aloud, "Have you encountered a particularly huge aberration during this time?" ”

Rosetta Augustus woke up from his thoughts, and there was a slight confusion in his tone: "Particularly huge? ”

"Yes, it is two to three times the height of an ordinary aberration, it is extremely burly, and there is a magical structure on the surface of the body that can unleash powerful spell attacks, and it seems to have the ability to strengthen the surrounding aberrations. The most important point is that those extraordinarily large individuals seem to have a certain ability to think. ”

"Thinking skills?" There was finally a hint of surprise in Rosetta's tone, but he quickly shook his head, "No, we've never seen instances like that, but if they do exist and appear...... That's definitely a huge threat. Do you confirm that they exist? Have you ever encountered it? ”

"They've attacked Cecil proper—I suspect they came out when there was a hole in the Great Wall."

Gawain was referring to the giant aberrations that appeared once during the Second Battle of Cecil, also known as the "Megamorphs", and although those mutated monsters were eventually destroyed by the defenders and Rebecca's large fireballs, their terrifying strength and vague intelligence still impressed Gawain.

He had expected that he would have a chance to see the monster again when he reached the edge of the wasteland, but in fact he hadn't seen it once.

Ordinary aberrations in this area attack frequently, but the "megalobe" never appears again.

Rosetta Augustus had never seen such a gigantic guy, and at this point, Gawain didn't think there was any need for the other party to lie to him.

This made Gawain vaguely speculate - could it be that the extraordinarily large distortion was unique to the Wasteland?

Regardless of whether it is Cecil's camp or Typhon's camp, all the people who have dealt with it for a period of time have encountered only the wandering monsters outside the Great Wall, and all the distortions are naturally generated "outside the wall" due to the influence of the Chaos Demon Energy that spreads out of the wasteland, and the aberration that attacked Cecil's territory at the beginning is likely to wander out of the wasteland when there is a loophole in the Great Wall, which is a product of the depths of the wasteland!

He thought of the last in Rosetta's series of questions: what was the difference between the aberrations that appeared on the outside of the Great Wall and those that appeared inside the wasteland.

Is that the difference? The monsters inside the wasteland will "evolve", while the ones outside won't?

Gao Wen frowned, subconsciously looked at the magnificent energy barrier connecting heaven and earth in the distance, and a second question popped up in his heart:

Even if the gigantic aberrations are unique to the wasteland...... Why have the sentinels stationed at the edge of the barrier not even seen them for so long?

Almost every day, the sentinels of the Pinnacle Base would witness a large group of deviants wandering to the foot of the barrier, and then the energy stirred up by the barrier would instantly evaporate, but after such a long time, the sighting of the giant body had never appeared......

Is it because megalomegranates are so rare? Or is it because of ...... Something was controlling the megalomes, keeping them from wandering to the edge of the barrier, from being seen by the sentinels outside the barrier?

Extending along this line of thought, Gawain couldn't help but wonder if the giant avatars that attacked Cecil's territory before were an accident or ...... Intentionally?

As he thought about this level, a name had naturally crossed his mind, the only one that had so far been associated with the Great Wall, the Wasteland of Gondor, and was full of intrigues:

Everything will be behind the pot.

……

In the end, Gawain did not get any answers in the camp of the Typhonians.

He embarks on a journey back to Cecil's Pinnacle base.

The barren and corrupt wilderness was constantly receding outside the car window, the endless wind on the wasteland swirled around the convoy, and the side of the "Iron Ambassador" multi-purpose vehicle in front of the convoy flashed with fire, and the scorching rays that burst out pierced through a mutant monster trying to get closer, and Gawain sat quietly in the magic guide car in the center of the convoy, already pondering for a long time.

Amber withdrew her gaze from the desolate wasteland and glanced at Gawain curiously, "What have you been thinking all this way?" ”

Gawain exhaled slightly, putting aside many complicated thoughts for a while, and then he glanced at the half-elf lady with shiny eyes, and said casually under the gossipy gaze of the other party, "What kind of person do you think Rosetta is?" ”

Amber didn't think about it, so she spoke, "An old fox like you—I mean the scheming kind." ”

Gawain glanced at the shame of the elves who quickly changed his words at the last moment, and shook his head slightly: "I can't be sure how deep the connection between Rosetta Augustus and the Society of the End of All Things is, judging from the details observed so far, the two of them may just cooperate with interests." Of course, it is also possible that Rosetta Augustus's acting skills are too leaky. ”

"When you mention Berthira Augustus, he acts as if he doesn't even know that the other party is already a high-ranking priest who is the end of everything," Amber blinked, "If he really doesn't know, then his cooperation with the Society of the End of Everything may be really shallow, and Bertila Augustus is really completely out of the former Typhon royal family, if he pretends not to know, then the fun will be great...... That shows that Typhon's royal family is definitely in league with the Society of the End of All Things. ”

Gawain was noncommittal, but intuitively, he had begun to tend to think that the connection between Typhon's royal family and the Society of the End of All Things was only for profit, at least Rosetta Augustus herself, but he also knew that "intuition" could not be relied upon in such matters.

The silence was broken for a moment by the hum of machinery and the occasional firing of weapons as the chariots spawned in the wasteland.

After a period of silence, Gawain broke the silence with a slight sigh: "I don't know why, I always feel that Rosetta Augustus is a bit like me......"

After saying this, there was no response, Gawain couldn't help but look curiously at the half-elf beside him, but saw that this elf shame was looking at him with wide eyes and stunned, and only after a long time did he hold back a sentence: "Mom-what did you do back then?!" ”

Gawain: "......"

At this moment, he suddenly had an almost irrepressible thought: tie this elf shame to the pole, poke it on the roof of the car, and hang it all the way, hanging her to the camp!!

It's hard to get away from the iron-headed Rebecca, so why is Amber's head iron!!

……

At the base of Typhon's Peak, next to Rosetta Augustus's palace, a steel-clad magical mechanical creature was quietly parked in the square.

More than a dozen heavily armed Typhon soldiers guarded the place.

Rosetta and Androsa Wendell stood next to the "magic car", observing the complex machinery in front of them with a hint of curiosity.

It was a gift from the Cecil people and was left here as a souvenir of the "trade treaty".

"It's an incredible marvel of engineering and magic...... Isn't it? ”

Rosetta sighed softly.

Andesa frowned slightly: "But I still have doubts about this thing. ”

"You can be suspicious of the behavior of the Ansu, but you must be in awe of advanced technology," Rosetta glanced at the young wolf general and reminded faintly, "The progress of technology will bring great development, the social output will increase, the people will be rich, the army will be strong, the country will prosper, and every advance of Typhon over the years has been built on these foundations." ”

Andesa lowered her head: "Yes...... Your Majesty. ”

Rosetta nodded slightly, his gaze returned to the magic car, and sighed in a low voice, "I just didn't expect it...... I didn't expect Ansu, who was already lagging behind in all aspects, to suddenly walk ahead of us. The Cecilians have found a path that no one has thought of before, and if we had discovered it any later, we would have been left behind by a principality. ”

"You seem to have a lot of importance for the Duchy of Cecil?"

Instead of answering Andessa's question, Rosetta suddenly asked, after a few seconds of silence, "What kind of person do you think Gawain Cecil is?" ”

Andesa spoke frankly about her feelings: "...... He seems to be generous and upright, but there is a hidden side that people can't see. I've heard a lot of stories about the first generation of Trailblazers, including him, but those stories only describe him as a symbolic hero, never mentioning that he would fight people at the negotiating table. ”

Rosetta inadvertently glanced at the "wolf general".

Considering the wolf general's hostile attitude towards the Ansu people, the above is obviously already a high evaluation.

He smiled slightly stiff and said in a deep voice, "The Pioneer...... Sooner or later, he will be the enemy of Typhon.

"Because he's the same kind of person as me."
