Except for Dante, the rest were driven out of the Great Tent.
"I'm sorry, they ......" Gonzalez turned his head, not showing the slightest look of impatience or annoyance on Link's face, and swallowed the words back into his stomach.
I haven't seen him for a few months, but he has really grown a lot, and he is no longer the self-oriented and trouble-feared youth he was on Earth. But...... It is not so easy to defeat the Undead Empire, and the scattered sand of humanity alone will drag the alliance back, and if you don't plan well, you will repeat the mistakes of the Natural Alliance forty years ago.
Gonzalez wanted to ask Link about his plan, but he was worried that someone around him would leak secrets, so he chose to remain silent again.
"Are you two going to stand there like this?" Dent on the side couldn't stand it.
From Gonzalez's expression, Link could somewhat guess the scruples of his old friend, "With an ally like Malik, I basically don't have any secrets to speak of. โ
The implication is that there is no need to scruples, you can ask whatever you want.
Gonzalez smiled wryly, confused, and didn't know where to start.
There was silence in the tent, and Dante shook his head, leaving space for the two to reunite after a long absence.
"Be careful, Frost's mind is far more terrifying than his strength. Link didn't know what to say.
"Does the pillar really intend to destroy the miรจ humans?"
This time, Link was silent.
How to answer? Pillar did have the idea of purging humanity, but the situation wasn't that bad. Although his construction of the pillar was adopted, this does not mean that the human race can escape the catastrophe, and the most important thing at the moment is to deal with Hicks and the undead empire that single-handedly created Zร o. If the Alliance wins, will the Pillar spare the culprit of this thousand-year-old catastrophe? Link had no answer.
If there really is a day, Gonzalez, Orlando, everyone you know will become enemies.
"No matter what the future holds, you will always be my friend. Gonzalez comforted Link in turn. The youthful face has the maturity of the older the age.
"I want to wake up the closed pillars of the earth, the specific method and itinerary cannot be revealed, and there will be a long time to be out of the front line. Until then, the task of fighting against the undead empire, which may gather southward at any time, can only be entrusted to you. "I can't even tell Gonzalez that I went to Nanyanzhou, and Link said sorry in his heart, "Befast is at the forefront of the battle. But I can't help you fight the undead. โ
"What stupid words!" Gonzalez slapped Link on the back, "The soldiers in the Watch Fort are all volunteers, they are either homeless outcasts, or lonely people whose relatives and friends have been slaughtered by the undead, they may not be the main force in the battle against the undead, but none of them are greedy for life and afraid of death, don't underestimate us." Rest assured, there is also the Dawn Sect. โ
"Until the decisive battle is ready, it is up to you to defend against the undead. Link's heart was extremely heavy. On the premise that the frost returns. Asking Gonzalez to hold his ground is tantamount to sending the soldiers of the Watchtower, who are no different from cannon fodder, to their deaths.
His mind fluctuated too much, and Doyle, who was aware of it, threw down a confused Neham and hurried in the direction of the big tent.
Sensing her aura approaching, Link asked Gonzalez to prepare a woman's outfit.
"You don't want to dress up as a man, do you?"
Even if I could change my appearance, habits and inwardness could not be imitated. Glancing at Gonzalez, who was laughing at him, Link introduced Doyle, who had entered the tent after being informed, "This is my adopted daughter who just adopted. โ
Gonzalez's jaw was about to drop to the ground, "Such a big adopted daughter? Link, you ......"
His teasing expression annoyed Link. "Don't be cranky! It's an official adoption!"
"Yes, yes, formal adoption. Gonzalez waved his hand disapprerovingly. In a serious manner, Doyle, who was annoyed by his ridicule, said: "I have known this guy over there, and I am old enough to be his father." โ
Doyle was dumbfounded at once, I had heard that the young Grand Duke of Befast was also a life weaver, since he was old enough to be Link's father, wouldn't he be my grandfather's generation?
Henry lifted the curtain and entered, holding the women's dress that Link wanted.
Link took it. He handed it to Doyle again.
Looking at the clothes that were obviously for women, Doyle looked shocked, "This...... Isn't it for me?"
has adapted to living as a man, and she really doesn't fit in when she wants to wear back into a woman's attire.
"Don't forget the purpose of our trip. If I just went like this, within three days, the outside world would know my whereabouts. Shoving the clothes to Doyle, Link cast a small opaque enchantment for her to change her costume in.
"Even if she changes into women's clothes, your features are still too obvious......" Gonzalez could finish his sentence when he saw Link's face aging rapidly, and in a matter of seconds, he had changed from a young man in his early twenties to a middle-aged man in his forties.
Henry's eyes widened, stunned by the scene. I have long heard that Transfiguration can easily change appearance and body shape, but ...... That's an exaggeration, isn't it?
"Spell?" As a voter, Gonzalez felt fluctuations in divine power more easily than the average person, and he was sure that Link was not using divine power.
Link shook his head, and was about to explain, when Doyle signaled that she had finished dressing.
The enchantment was removed, and the person who appeared in front of the three of them was no longer the young man whose gender was difficult to distinguish just now. Just the difference in clothing made her temperament change extremely, and her heroic spirit turned into charming.
Link squinted for a few seconds, and asked in his consciousness with some uncertainty, "Vera?"
[It's me.] ใ
Vera, who swapped body control, used her consciousness to inform Link that Doyle thought her words and actions were too masculine and worried that she would not play well, so she switched tunes with her.
It seems reasonable to think about it this way...... Compared with Doyle, who has always appeared as a man, Vera is more suitable for women's clothing, and her temperament is more feminine in her gestures.
Gonzalez rubbed his chin for a moment, "It doesn't feel like a father and daughter." โ
Link came back to his senses, took out a hand mirror from the dimensional bag that he hadn't used for a long time and took a look, "What's not like it?"
"The general feeling is ......," Henry murmured, and when he saw everyone's eyes, he hurriedly looked down at himself.
"Temperament can't be imitated, so let's make do with it first. In Link's opinion, as long as it is enough to make people not recognize his original identity, the other details can be taken slowly, remembering that before landing, he saw a griffin in a large iron cage hanging on the city wall, and Link asked Gonzalez to lend him another one.
"The Gryphon is Dawn's standard mount, and there aren't many synthetic drakes left in Dragonrock Castle. Gonzalez shrugged his shoulders and said that if he wanted a griffon, he would have to go to Bright, who was known for his eccentric temper.
"Oh......" Link dragged out his tone, a calculating smile on his lips.
When it was dark and there was no Link and Doyle, Neham, who had a feeling that something was wrong, approached the Grand Priest and asked in surprise, "Why are you still here?"
"They were out at noon, I thought ......" Alysina didn't go any further, Link had a word of the word, saying that the target was too big, and they disguised themselves to go to Nax City on a griffon.
Damn, this untrustworthy fellow......
Neham snapped, "No one informed me. โ
"This ...... Maybe it's a mistake on the part of the messenger, who has agreed to let you go with him, and he won't use such a clumsy trick to get rid of you. Alysina tries to appease Neam's affections.
Taking a deep breath, Neuham forced himself to calm down, "Please tell the High Priest on my behalf, and I will not fail his request." โ
Looking at the stubborn knight who turned away, Alicina sighed in her heart.
Did you know that the High Priest let you go out to practice, the purpose is to change your stubborn personality, if you can have half of Link...... No, a third of the flexibility, how could the high priest risk the future successor of the predetermined future......
Asking Black for a griffin, Neham hurried to Nax City, and when he arrived in Nax City, Link and Doyle, who had been on the road half a day early, had just walked half the way. This time, instead of transforming into a falcon, Link opted for a more ordinary and common means of transportation - horses. In the guise of father and daughter, the two of them pretended to be wandering mercenaries and set out on the road with a group of merchants passing through Grantham. Vera's bejeweled appearance attracted much attention, and compared to the impatience and gloomy expression on her face, the manipulator's outfit was the real hero who successfully contained the wild bee and butterfly.
She expressed her dissatisfaction through guรฒ consciousness, "I really want to burn these guys to death!]
[Most human beings are face control, if you look ugly, there will be no such troubles. Link forced a smile, his expression was extremely unnatural, but fortunately, Doyle next to him helped him attract people's attention, and few people now had an old man who was lying on his body and was actually suffering from internal injuries quickly.
[This is not the case when Doyle controls the body!] Through the sharing of consciousness, Vera knows that when the other soul controls the body, she will not have the troubles she has now.
[She is more masculine, she was raised as a man since she was a child, and she is like a man in everything she says and does, so naturally no one will associate her with women, at most she will feel that her facial features are too delicate. Add to that elven blood, and no one thinks much about it. You are different, you can tell the gender at a glance. In order to appease Vera's almost furious anger, Link promised to wait for Nax, find the nobleman who had a private relationship with the undead, and let Vera vent it.
The deal with Phalanee was halted by her fall, but Link's list of adventurers' guilds was still there, and he had carefully researched it before it came out, and had chosen the city of Nax, which was closest to the Great Trap, as the first point of entry into the investigation.
In the illusion of Earth, the slave trade in the city was rampant, and the results of inquiries from Alisina, Blake, and Gonzalez were completely consistent, and the slave trade in Nax's city had not been interrupted for many years, not only because of the human demand for slaves, but also because the actual ruler of the city was a mage, and even the city was named after him.
The current lord of the city is the son of Nax, who has been knighted and has traveled to Hohenheim twenty years ago, and is one of the few Legendary mages. (To be continued!)
