Shannon was silent for a long time, and then said slowly, "Because he sent his monsters to the palace. ”

"Monster?" Ingres looked at Shannon suspiciously.

"It was a terrifying humanoid monster, huge enough tall to reach the top of this hall. Shannon continued to paint the face of the monster, with a giant mouth like a crocodile, fangs turned inward, gray skin with faint bruised veins inside, no bridge of nose but five neatly arranged nostrils, and its eyes were huge, but only one eye.

After listening to Shannon's narration, Angel seemed to think of something, and used the illusion to simulate a petite monster image on the desktop, which was almost the same as the appearance described by Shannon.

"Is that so?" asked Ingres.

Shannon was startled when she saw the apparition, but when Angel questioned her, she realized that the other party seemed to be simulating the monster somehow.

"It's similar, but the skin color looks better than the adult's...... Be darker. Shannon looked closely and distinguished.

Angel gave a clear look and motioned for Shannon to continue.

Shannon: "This monster has come to the capital and attacked the palace. It is extremely ferocious, and can often pull out people's hearts with a single claw, and then gnaw on the spot...... That night, it killed almost a tenth of the people in the palace. ”

Angel heard that the monster loved to eat heart, and was even more sure of its identity.

"It's a Gomito, and it's called a mind-eater. Angler paused: "Generally speaking, a mind-eater is not a thing in this realm, but a summoned beast. But it's relatively low-level, and the IQ is not enough, and it looks ...... So, they are either summoned by people with unique tastes, or they have no other choice, in short, they may be wilderness wizards. ”

"Is it an official wizard?" Leon hurriedly asked.

"If it's an official wizard, can the Shannon royal family last so long?" Angel said, "For example, if Lord Eurica makes a move, it won't take more than a week to completely destroy the Plantagenet Empire." If you kill the royal family alone, it may be enough for a few minutes. ”

Angel's example sent chills down Shannon's back, and he was even more afraid of the wizard's power.

"Since Shannon said that the color of the mind eater's skin is very dark, then the other party summoned it is probably an old and decrepit mind eater, and this kind of low-level summon cannot be summoned perfectly, probably at the level of a first- or second-level apprentice. After a pause, Ingres said: "It seems that this war really has extraordinary forces involved. And if you are a low-level apprentice, a person who does not follow the default rules and acts recklessly, then I prefer the other party to be a wilderness apprentice. ”

Ingres finally gives a qualitative conclusion.

Although in Ingres's words, the Mind Eater is a lowly summon, if faced with a mortal, a Mind Eater can easily sweep away a city of people.

The invulnerability of the mind eater's skin alone is not something that mortals can handle.

Just like General Munn of Tan Hong Kong, his death also conforms to the characteristics of a mind eater, in a port where the army is stationed, the mind eater can enter a no-man's land, not to mention that the number of people is definitely less than that of the imperial palace in the military port.

Therefore, Angel was very curious: "Once the mind eater starts to kill, it will never stop easily. There is no news of the death of a descendant in the Shannon royal family, which means that you have repelled the Mind Eater, and how did you do that?"

Shannon was silent for a long time before he said, "The royal family has a treasure that can protect and defeat the Mind Eater. ”

Leon said at this time: "If the royal family has such a treasure, are you still worried about Hailan's invasion?"

Shannon shook his head: "That treasure has strong constraints, and only our Shannon clan can operate it, and every operation will inevitably involve a sacrifice." In order to kill the mind-eater, the third brother has died, and the Shannon royal family is already scarce, so it is not cost-effective to use that treasure. What's more, the transcendent who is hidden behind can continue to summon mind eaters. If it continues, our people will die, and we will not be able to kill him. ”

"So, we only have to ask for it. Shannon suddenly fell to his knees on one knee and made a knightly salute: "Save our Empire of the Golden Finch, which is about to collapse." ”

Ingres still didn't answer, but thought about the treasure that the other party had said.

A treasure related by blood, every time it is used, it has to be sacrificed to one person? It sounds a little strange, but having a blood connection means that when the other party refines the treasure, he hopes to pass it on. But when it is used, it is necessary to sacrifice one person, which does not conform to the characteristics of blood association.

It sounds paradoxical. However, Angels could see that Shannon was not lying, could it be that the person who refined this treasure loved and hated both Shannon and Shannon?

Unable to think of any strange maneuver, Angel decided to put it aside for the time being, and instead looked at Shannon, who was on his knees.

Instead of responding to Shannon's request, he asked:

"You just said that the mind eater came to attack the royal family, and you haven't said why it came?

Hearing Angels' question, Leon also reacted at this time: "Yes, why are you so sure that there must be a transcendent standing behind the mind-eater, could it be that that transcendent has also contacted you?"

Shannon hesitated, but told the truth: "Before the Mind Eater came, a letter appeared in my father's hand. The letter stated his purpose and that he asked us to hand over the treasure...... Father tore him off directly, and then there was a mind eater attack, and later Hailan counterattacked in various places, and many generals in the province were killed by mind eaters. ”

"It can be seen that there is a transcendent person behind the mind eater, and he is standing in Hailan's camp. He may have judged that the storming of the palace would not succeed, so he simply helped Heilan and used the method of encroachment to make the Golden Bird completely lose power. ”

Ingres wasn't interested in the mind eater's master, and Shannon's words were the ones that cared him the most......

"He wants you to hand over the treasure? What treasure, the one you killed the mind eater before?"

"It's not that volume...... Treasures, he wants something else. ”

Ingres noticed that Shannon seemed to use a strange measure word for the description of the previous treasure, but he didn't look into it, but continued to ask what the other treasure was.

Faced with this question, Shannon was not as simple as before: "This treasure is a secret, if the adults are willing to help us...... I can tell adults the secret. ”

As soon as this sentence came out, before Ingres could reply, Leon was a little pale.

"Are you threatening?" Leon squinted, leaning forward, and standing beside Shannon.

Leon's indifferent tone made Shannon's heart tremble, but what made Shannon feel uneasy the most was that Leon, who was standing beside her, exuded a powerful sense of oppression, which seemed to be brought from the blood, which made her feel a chilling sense of fear when facing an invincible beast.

Angel also noticed the strange oppression in Leon's body, which came from the pure flesh, even more so than the oppressive force he had when he first met Nausicaa.

"What kind of training has my brother experienced in the past few years, and how has the strength of his physical body increased so much?" Angel silently wondered in his heart.

In the face of Leon's bullying pressure, Shannon's voice trembled a little: "I'm not threatening, this is the bottom line that my father gave me." I know it's a bit unreasonable to want the wizard to help us in vain. The only thing we can exchange with the adults is the secret of that treasure. ”

When Leon was about to say something, Angels interrupted him: "I want to know, is the secret of this treasure related to it?"

Angel gestured to the shattered knight's sword on the table.

Shannon nodded without hesitation: "That's right." ”

Hearing this answer, Ingres fell into thought, and seemed to hesitate whether to agree to Shannon.

This gave rise to a hint of curiosity in Leon's heart, and when he discussed the refugees with Ingres, he could see that Ingres did not care about the victory or defeat of the war between Goldfinch and Heilan. He didn't have the slightest intention of wanting to get involved, as an older brother who had lived together for more than ten years, Leon knew Ingres's thoughts very well, and it was difficult to make changes to what he had decided.

But why did a fragment of a knight's sword make Ingres hesitate? It seems that there is still a plan to change the decision?

"Is there any secret to this knight's sword?" Leon couldn't help but ask.

"I don't know exactly what the secrets are, but there are some details that I care about. Ingres said ominously.

Shannon had been watching Angels as well, and now the only hope for the Shannon royal family was for a transcendent to appear on their side, so that they could fight against the man who could summon monsters. Only in this way can this war end as soon as possible.

Therefore, Shannon's heart was unbelievably apprehensive at this time, and he looked at Ingres's eyes with hope and pleading.

After a long time, in Shannon's excited eyes, Angel finally nodded.

"I can promise you, but I also have a request. ”

......

An hour later, Angel was already flying to Seamoon City with Shannon in a flying boat.

According to Shannon, Hailan's army has assembled in the sea a hundred miles away from the port of Vichy, and the next target of the attack will definitely be Haiyue City.

According to the previous attack and defense, the wizard apprentice who summoned the mind eater would definitely let the mind eater kill the generals of Haiyue City first, the high-level collapsed, the army was in chaos, and the Hailan soldiers would take advantage of the weakness to enter and forcibly take Haiyue City.

This is also the reason why Heilan has won battles frequently, that is, because of the appearance of the mind eaters, the success rate of their "decapitation operation" has been greatly improved.

"According to the request of the adults, as long as the adults can solve the transcendent of the other party, we will take care of the rest. Shannon said respectfully.

Angel nodded, although he agreed to Shannon's request this time, he didn't want to intervene in the war of mortals, first, it was not his desire to slaughter mortals, even Hailan's mortals, and second, it was a waste of time.

Therefore, he made a request that he only solve the transcendents of the other party, and whether the war is won or not still needs to be fought by the Plantagenet army itself.

And the time he arranged for himself for this operation was two days.
