Rhodes mixed in the ranks of the Resistance all the way north, and after a short time, he saw the huge shadow of the Cavehall Forest that he had said goodbye to not long ago, and he was completely calm at this time, first regretting his impulsive killing of several Imperial soldiers, but soon realizing that even if there was no unpleasant appearance, his identity was confirmed by the Imperial soldiers who searched the village and successfully joined them, and he would soon be attacked by the Resistance again. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 By that point, he would either be killed by the Resistance in a scuffle, or he would have to fight the Resistance alongside the Imperial soldiers. When the time comes, he may personally kill the dwarf Hawke, who once spoke up in the arena and finally escaped his life......

Why is it so messy? He suddenly became extremely depressed, and a bad feeling that "he was destined to not be able to return home" gradually arose in his consciousness.

With a lot of preoccupation, he followed the team into the forest.

......

"Rorick, I'm sorry, but there's one thing. "I'm sure you won't reveal the Resistance's hideouts to the outside world, but the rules are the rules, you're an outsider, and I have to put your head on the queen when I take you to see it, lest you remember the route." ”

With his head covered, wouldn't he put everything in the hands of someone else: "Then I won't go to see the queen, you let me go." ”

"I'm sorry again, but many of the things that have happened to Antelli lately have either been caused by or related to you, and since I have seen you, I will have to bring you to the queen to see you, even if she decides to let you go at once, which is what she has to decide. The dwarf looked at Rhodes sincerely: "I promise no one will hurt you, please don't embarrass me." ”

Rhodes looked around at the circle of Resistance soldiers around him and nodded helplessly.

He agreed, and Nikita naturally had no right to object, pouting and being blindfolded with his eldest brother, and the horses they were riding were led by dwarves, and they went deep into the forest in a drowsy state, stopping at a small resistance outpost on the way to rest for a while, and did not reach their destination until it was completely dark.

With good night vision, he quickly saw his surroundings in the night when he took off his hood. A small valley, immersed in mist and vapor rising from the ground, and everything looms a little further away. Heat rises from the rocks below and around it, making it a few degrees warmer than outside, and the top of the valley is sealed by a huge, verdant canopy that makes it impossible to see the night sky.

What a great place to hide.

At first, there was a dead silence in the valley, but with Hawke's loud whistle, a number of figures emerged from the shadows, dressed in camouflage uniforms that Rod had not seen before.

Answering the code, the returning resistance horses entered the valley.

Rhodes is soon taken to a cave with a very small entrance but an extremely large interior, where he meets Queen Elaine, a girl who has been forced to give up half of her kingdom but is still the de jure ruler of Antelli.

The cave was crowded with people, and under the flickering light of the torches, the young queen's appearance did not change much, and her figure had not had time to grow significantly taller or stronger in the short period of less than a month since she was separated from Rod, she was dressed in a slim suit that was easy to move, and she wore an emerald cloak embroidered with the pattern of the Anteli coat of arms, and her leather boots and hair were tied into a ponytail with ribbons, and she looked like she was in good spirits. Corresponding to the change in her outfit, her demeanor and temperament changed as if she had changed into a different person, and the girl no longer had a sweet smile on her face, she was as cold as ice, and her eyes were full of determination.

Rod could imagine that in the past month, the girl opposite Nikita's size had gone through nothing more easily than what had happened to her, and she survived.

......

"Your Majesty, our sortie has yielded significant results, a successful surprise attack that kills the son of the commander of the Midland invasion force. Hawke stooped down to report to the Queen, "In addition, we have found Sir Rowick Hart, who had disappeared earlier. ”

The people in the cave looked at Rhodes in unison. Before the returnees arrived, the messengers of the Hawke faction had already taken the lead to bring the message back to the Resistance camp, and many of the officers even got up from their beds and came here to see what the 'sons of the guardians' who had lost the war because they had disappeared and fallen into the battlefield between the two armies.

Pretty handsome guy, but it doesn't seem to be anything special.

"Sir Hart, don't come unharmed. The young queen sighed.

"Drag Your Majesty's blessings, and everything is fine. Rod smiled wryly and gave an answer that was obviously a cliché.

Elaine shook her head and looked at the Resistance's generals crowded in the cave, "You've seen the excitement, you can go back to rest, and I'll talk to Sir Hart...... Something that has nothing to do with war. ”

The crowd whispered and prepared to leave the cave as the queen had said, but a voice rang out abruptly.

"Your Majesty! The Resistance's informant in the village of Hashi told me that Sir Rowick Hart confessed to the villagers today that his true identity was Rod Foster, the son of the commander of the Midland Empire army. It was a man behind Hawke who was talking, and Rhodes looked back to see that it was the Resistance officer who had been very unkind to him on the road, "I suspect that everything from the death of King Elite to the intervention of the Guardians is a conspiracy of the Midland military, and the perpetrator of this conspiracy is none other than Sir Rorick Hart in front of us now!"

Everyone who was about to leave stopped in their tracks, and even Hawke looked at Rhodes with surprise, he didn't know these things.

"But the Guardian himself told me that this was her son. The young queen and the spiritual leader of the Resistance furrowed her delicate little eyebrows: "How did you become the son of the commander of the Midland army again?"

"It is not contradictory that the Guardian that Your Majesty has seen is a woman, but the commander of the Midland army is a man. "But think about it, if the woman who calls herself the 'Guardian of the World' is really protecting the world, shouldn't she be impartial and neutral, why would she give birth to a son to the commander of the Midland army?"

The onlookers of the Resistance began to discuss, and the words of the officer behind Hawke aroused the approval of many people, if there are really people who are carrying out the so-called work of protecting the world, then Midland and Anteli are both part of this world, shouldn't they be treated equally, why was Anteli ordered to give up resistance and let Midland occupy it?

"Ser Hart, is he telling the truth?" Elaine coughed, signaled for everyone to be quiet, and turned her head to stare at Rhodes solemnly, "Are you really the son of Duke Foster and the Guardian?"

"My last name is Forster, but I don't know any Guardians. Rod was tired, he felt that no matter what he did, he was destined to never go back home, and he was in no mood to bother making up stories and deceiving people now.
