Chapter 156: Plan in advance

"This can't help but make me think of a question, why didn't the Seven Towers bring other mage towers with them when they fought against the gods? Is it really because they want to preserve their power, or do they feel that these people are not reliable enough and will become a drag?" asked Roland.

Xiao Chen also had no answer to this question. So he asked, "My other question is: Now that Gibran is dead, do you have the power to enter the natural temple of the royal capital?"

"I'm just a silver-leaf priest. Not as powerful as you might think. Roland said.

"It seems that Garnoby does not agree with this, and I find that he is very unwilling when you say this. Xiao Chen looked at Garneau and said.

Roland glanced at Garneau, who scratched his head rather embarrassedly.

"Garneau is still too young, and young people sometimes can't hold their breath. I'm not lying to you, though. The Knights of the Burning Sun and the Angry Waves who entered the royal capital this time all supported the Divine Presence faction, and the two leaders of the Knights were not injured in any way, and they also had a strong control over the team. However, compared to the Celestial Knights of the Sun, who had two Golden Bough Priests and eight Silver Leaf Priests in the Flemont family, Nadal, the leader of the Knights of the Furious Waves, was only a Templar in a small temple, and there was no inheritance even higher. When it came to the death of the Golden Bough priest Gibran, the two heads of the regiment were not easy to explain, but in the end it must be Nadal who was unlucky. So, there was a little bit of progress in our relationship. ”

Roland took a sip of wine and looked at Xiao Chen with interest: "It's just that what do you want to do with me?"

"I want to rescue those imprisoned mages, and I hope you will cooperate with me. ”

"That's a lot of asking for it. Roland's face was hidden behind the wine glass, but a pair of eyes were staring at Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen leaned forward and said, "Can you sit back and watch all the mages being pulled over by the Divine Presence Faction?"

"My friend, politics is not such a simple thing. Are you trying to convince me with such a crude reason?" asked Roland.

"Of course not. I say this because with your wisdom, you must be able to find the essence of such a complex situation, and you must have thought so, otherwise why would you come here to see me, and expect a "good show"? I don't think that I can change your attitude with one mouth. So let's just cut a long story short. ”

Roland smiled and pointed his finger at Xiao Chen and asked, "Garneau, when is the farce prepared by the princess?"

"Tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon. Garneau turned to Xiao Chen and Roger, "You may not know that your Liu Pengfei killed the queen and will be sentenced to be hanged tomorrow." ”

"What?!How could Liu Pengfei kill the queen?" Xiao Chen asked in surprise.

"Hungry fish will always bite the hook, and hungry beasts will always fall into the well. He Liu Pengfei is so greedy for power, and that stupid plan in him couldn't be more normal. Garneau said dismissively.

"Where is the hanging?" Xiao Chen asked.

"As is customary, it is in the market area. It is estimated that the gallows will be erected tonight. Garneau said, "Are you going to save him? This guy is not a good thing." Even I, an outsider, can see that he doesn't deal with you. ”

"Anyway, he is my compatriot, and he specially came to warn Luo Ling about the danger of the matter. ”

"Xiao Chen has his own ideas, don't force your opinion on him. "Anyway, that day was the day when their forces were most scattered, and it was the best time to escape, to save people, to rob the execution ground, whatever you had to do." ”

"What do you recommend?"

"Okay. Let me tell you what I can do. Tomorrow, I can mobilize the Knights of the Fury Order's garrison, such as guarding the gates, or surround a house because of some false news, or let their garrison be 'attacked' and stay in the camp to investigate suspects. Anyway, I can try to avoid letting them appear in front of you, but that's the bottom line, and they can't do anything for you. ”

"You can also help me hold off the Thousand Sword Saints. Otherwise, as long as he is on the scene of the operation, the likelihood of our defeat will be greatly increased. ”

"You actually let the teacher face a Sage!" Garneau complained.

Xiao Chen shook his head and said, "I didn't understand why Benegas went to assassinate Master Sasso. But after listening to the oracle today, I understood why. Whether it is a saint or a guardian of the royal family, they have all become a dog in the temple of nature. As the chief priest of the kingdom, after Gibran's death, the priest of Roland was the most authoritative person in the royal capital of the temple of nature, and Benegas had already bowed his knees in front of the temple of nature, so how could he dare to be disrespectful to the priest of Roland?"

"Hold Benegas back? I can do you a favor. However, I hope you will do me a small favor as well. Roland stared at Xiao Chen, "Kill Felemon!"

——————————————————

Xiao Chen and Roger returned to the safe house, and the intelligence brought back by Caterina confirmed that Liu Pengfei would be hanged tomorrow.

Xiao Chen and Luo Ling urgently summoned a meeting of all the staff, including the three members of the Kaihui Wing Tower, but they had different opinions on how to act.

Xiao Chen, Luo Ling, and even Li Tianrui all thought that Liu Pengfei should be rescued. Their reason is also very simple, after all, they are all Chinese, no matter whether they have the same position on some things, if they abandon Liu Pengfei at such a time, there will always be a hurdle in their hearts. What's more, letting Liu Pengfei get close to the princess, they also contributed to it, but the later development was very different from what they expected.

But both May and Anar of the Tower of Radiant Wings thought it was completely unnecessary to take a big risk for such a person. Spend more energy thinking about how to save the mages who are imprisoned in the dungeon.

Mei analyzed for Xiao Chen: "All these people, once rescued, will definitely not be able to stay in the royal capital." The biggest possibility is that they will go with you to your Chinese fiefdoms, and these people are of immeasurable value to you. Each time you save an additional mage, you will gain more knowledge and inheritance. This is a great opportunity to expand your own power! Do you really want to disperse your forces for that man?"

Xiao Chen said: "This is not a simple rescue operation, if we don't start from both ends, we can't deceive and mobilize the enemy's forces, and make them exhausted, just with a few of us, it is very likely that we will not be able to achieve our goal on either side, and we will trap ourselves in it." ”

The two sides argued for a long time, and finally adopted Xiao Chen's opinion.

"In that case, let's get moving. After everyone made their choice, Xiao Chen said, "Since they will arrange the venue today, then let's go out and take advantage of this opportunity." ”
