The time of dawn was very fast, and Wang Chu was not sleepy in the second half of each battle, and he did not begin to feel heavy eyelids until the sun rose the next morning.

When I returned to the fleet last night, no one spoke after seeing me, even Lias only briefly asked a few times, and the fleet docked quietly until the next morning, when it was completely light, and then began to move.

None of the people on the deck slept, so they leaned against each other until dawn.

And in the morning, after people stood up, they could fully see what Silk Town looks like now.

Last night's starfall landed on the head of the town like a meteor shower, and although everyone was prepared, they couldn't help but sigh when they actually saw it.

A quaint little city...... All that remains is ruins.

"The whole town is gone!"

"Yes, it's all gone. ”

Wang Chu also climbed onto Lias's shoulder to see the city in the river.

I can't see what it looked like yesterday anymore, except for the gate at the door and the river, most of the houses have been flattened by themselves.

Wang Chu didn't expect that his star fall had been strengthened to such a point, although the star was a directional attack magic in his place, but there was still damage to the surroundings, just like if the other party was lying on the window, the starfall would either shoot diagonally into it, or hit it directly from the roof.

Who knows, it's already like this anyway.

Such a place should not be long in place, and as long as it can be seen clearly, the fleet must quickly leave to avoid further attacks.

The fog on the river gradually lifted, and there were no other boats in the river leading to Xiushui Town.

When I came yesterday evening, everyone was in a good mood, and I thought it was a good place to get off the boat and drink in the tavern...... I didn't expect the reality to be much worse than I imagined.

Now on the way back, take a look at the nearby watershed.

The shore, which has not been tended for many years, has long been covered with moss, and the river is full of garbage, and it is clear that no one has cleaned it up for a long time.

Usually a bustling city has a special river cleaner, and their daily job is to clean up the river near the city, which is also the face of a city.

But none.

All kinds of signs have long indicated that there is something wrong with the city.

"But why didn't you say it yesterday?"

Anyway, it was already out, and the topic of soldiers on the deck began to become all over the world.

"I've said it's problematic a long time ago, I've said it. ”

"You obviously said that you wanted to see what the northern girl looked like, and you said that you wanted a pot of good wine, I remember...... I saw it last night, and the meat was almost rotten. ”

“............”

The chat of several soldiers reached an impasse.

"Well, you don't have much to do, and you owe a debt of gratitude to General Lias and His Excellency the Lord of the Forest, as well as the Archbishop. If it weren't for them, they would still be able to listen to you messing around here. Nikos' voice came from afar.

No one cares about ordinary chats, but when the noise is a little louder, the people next to him will scold when they rest.

Speaking of last night's incident, Lias suddenly thought of something, turned her head and asked Wang Chu on her shoulder.

"Cam, what did you encounter last night?"

When I came back yesterday, I looked at the other party as if I was tired, so I didn't ask, and I just remembered it when I heard the soldier speak.

Everyone around seemed interested in the question, and when Lias asked, Lucia, as well as the Archbishop and Akara, all turned their heads to look at the side.

"Death Knight, we're fighting the Death Knight. ”

Overhead, Avenna jumped off the sail of the ship.

The name of the death knight was told to her by Wang Chu last night, and since she asked, she would answer first.

"The Dark Knights in the shadows? If it were them, everything would be easy to explain. ”

Benedictas is a well-informed veteran, and he can think of the whole thing together by just saying who is behind the scenes.

"What do you mean, archbishop?" asked Akara, puzzled.

"Death Knights, wielding the magic of death, are capable of stripping all life in an instant, and can also turn the living into ghouls. I've seen them on the battlefield a few times, and they're usually mixed up with necromancers, enemies of the Light...... It's just that since the Great Elf King repelled the strongest of them, he hasn't been active on the bright side for many years, how can he appear in this place. ”

Benedictas's words made a figure flash in Wang Chu's head.

The unreliable man?

said that they would work together, but they couldn't see him every time they fought, and there was no way to get in touch.

"Actually, the archbishop. We've seen a Death Knight before, when he was in Hajar City. Now that she has said this, Lias also voiced the doubts in her heart.

It seems that she has also been paying attention to this matter for a year, and she has not forgotten it.

Lias briefly explained the events that happened in Hajar City, and someone of Benedictas's status should have known about it a long time ago, but his own side did not know the situation of the real imperial investigation.

Benedictas looked around at the people around him, only these high-ranking generals were present, and the soldiers usually didn't deliberately stand with the leader, so there were no other people around.

It is more appropriate to say such things on the deck than in the cabin.

"Since you've all asked, I'll tell you...... After the incident in Hajar City, the empire also sent a lot of people to investigate, remember the Midnight Child? The archbishop said.

Both Lias and Lucia nodded heavily.

Wang Chu remembered that for a period of time after the battle, Lucia was busy looking for information about them for a while, until the two came to the imperial capital and were not familiar with each other.

"The news of the reappearance of the Midnight Suns, and the subsequent events in the Imperial Capital, we are all connected to a secret investigation. ”

"And what happened?" asked Lias hurriedly.

"There isn't much useful information, the two things don't seem to be related, we only found each other's purpose seems to be to find the ancient fire elemental body trapped in the mountains of Hajar City, and nothing else has been progressed...... However, the news of Midnight's Suns reappearing did shock the Empire and the northern realms, which may be the reason why they have not done much in this battle for the wilderness. ”

The archbishop doesn't seem to know much more than he does.

"If General Lias and Lord Cam want to know, I can give you all this information when I return to the Imperial Capital, the battle between the Followers of the Light and the Midnight Children has been going on for a long time, and the Cathedral has a more comprehensive account. ”

After all, they came out of the battlefield together, and now Benedictas is not as vigilant as before when facing his side.
