The Femon Empire is gone, Kane knows this, Deves knows it, and Kaz knows better.

In the battle of the Gongta Grassland, the army of the Fermont Empire was defeated too completely, and the private soldiers of several dukes saw that the river bank was easily lost, and they immediately broke and fled. The formation of several elite knight legions was scattered by the fleeing soldiers, and they had the intention to resist but could not form a joint force, and were finally divided by the Thorn Cavalry and destroyed in turn.

Therefore, the 30,000 remnants of the army that were re-collected by Kane and others after this battle were almost all the fastest and most resolute in the Battle of Gongta Grassland.

Such a remnant army, under the city of Coennas, opened a battle with a thorny army several times its own, and was defeated again without suspense.

The Thorn Army immediately divided its troops into 40,000 troops, two complete corps, and pursued it all the way to the south, not only with the intention of completely destroying this remnant, but also in order to pacify the dozen or so provinces in the southeast of the Feimeng Empire and prevent the formation of King Qin's army in these areas.

After two successive defeats, Kane and Kaz, who were seriously wounded, wanted to die for their country, but were stopped by Deves and Victor and others, covering the retreat to the southernmost province of Tesri in the empire.

In the middle of the night, sisters Elemanda and Ellimia finally couldn't stay up and went to sleep. Donner, along with Natia and Adarua, continued to discuss their next steps.

Donner suddenly remembered the experience he hadn't mentioned at dinner to avoid Richard and Kelly worrying.

"By the way, I met two people in Greenland Province and almost died at their hands. ”

"How about the two of you?" asked Natia hurriedly.

"The first is a knight, dressed in golden armor, gray-haired, and looks to be about fifty years old. My magic gun can't penetrate his armor, and it can't deal with his fighting spirit. Donner said as he recalled.

"Golden armor?" replied Idarua, "The golden armor that can block your magic spear may be someone from the Scorching Sun Mercenary Regiment of the Knight Continent." ”

"Edward hired a fifth-level knight of the Scorching Sun Mercenary Regiment three years ago, and you're probably talking about him. Natia added, "You actually met him, and he didn't treat you well?"

"He probably wanted to kill me. Donner replied.

Although she already knew that Donner was safe and sound, hearing him say this, Natia still nervously asked, "I want to kill you?" ”

"He was killed before he could do it. ”

"Who killed you, and why did that man save you?" asked Natia in surprise.

"That man didn't want to save me, on the contrary, he wanted to kill me with his own hands. Donner smiled wryly.

"That's one of the two people you're talking about, and why would he kill you?"

"He seems to have said that it was his mission to kill me, and he killed the knight in order to complete this mission......"

Natia's expression changed from surprise to nervousness, she seemed to think of something, hurriedly interrupted Donner's words, and interjected to ask, "Is that person a black dress all his life?"

"Yes, with a thin scimitar. Downer added.

"How did you deal with him?" said Natia, who had already stood up excitedly.

"What can I do with him, he even killed that knight easily...... I was stabbed in the heart by him. Donner said it lightly, as if it wasn't something that had happened to him.

"Then you ......," Natia said in shock.

"You forgot? I received divine grace. Donner reminded that Natia was present when King Auston announced that he would share his charity with him.

"Yes, yes, you have received divine grace...... Not good!" Natia suddenly thought of something and let out a loud shout, and Adarua nodded at her, seemingly agreeing with her sudden reaction.

"What's wrong?" Donner asked, puzzled.

"The man you're talking about is the Shadow Blade killer!" replied Natia.

"So what, I'm not still alive?"

"That's because you don't know about the Shadowblades, and once they know that the mission has failed, they'll come back immediately, and this time they'll take it more seriously!"

Adamua, shaking her head, said to Natia, "I can't deal with them. ”

"Tell Cynthia the news!"

Hearing Natia's words, Aidaroa turned around and walked out of the laboratory, and as he walked, he couldn't help but scold: "You said that the Chosen One would be fine, but now you are scared like this. ”

Donner was taken aback by Natia's reaction, but after listening to her explanation, he was indeed a little worried, but he couldn't figure out why he wanted to tell Cynthia the news. What will Cynthia do?

The next morning, Donner put on his wide mage cloak and pulled the hat attached to it down, and suddenly his whole face was hidden in the shadows. In order to avoid the trouble of yesterday, he had to dress up in such a strange way and go out to visit Mr. Merkel's father, Mr. Cliff Buck.

"Mr. Cliff, I know there are some bad rumors out there, and I hope you will believe me, it's all false...... Donner explained to the other side.

"Donner, you don't have to explain that. I know enough about you from Merkel and Kelly, and I'm sure there must be a misunderstanding here. "Cliff Buck's hair was already gray, but he still looked energetic.

"I really want to thank Mr. Merkel for all his help to me, and I hope he can ...... safely"

"Son, that's his duty, and I knew there would be a day when he became a knight. Well, let's tell me why you're here today, you're not just here to comfort me, old man, are you?" said Mr. Cliff.

"I would like to customize a batch of machines for you. Donner said as he handed him a stack of drawings.

"Machine?" said Old Mr. Cliff took the drawings, looked through them one by one, and read them almost all before he continued, "What is this machine for?" ”

"Some of the parts, I commissioned the dwarves to process, and to tell you the truth, this is a machine for war. ”

"War, you mean, you want to use him against the Thorns?" asked the old gentleman.

"Yes. The dwarves have limited manufacturing power, so I thought of you. Downer replied.

"How much do you need?"

"The more the merrier, and I'll have a share of the cost ......from you," Donner said cautiously.

"In that case...... The processing capacity of our workshop is also very limited......"

"I can pay you some more crystals in return. Donner said immediately.

Old Mr. Cliff glanced at Donner, shook his head slightly, and said, "Son, what are you thinking? I mean, our workshop is also limited, so I will try my best to ask other colleagues to produce together." As for remuneration...... Hmph! Do you really think that businessmen only think about money? I also understand the truth of life and death, old man!"

Hearing this, Donner stood up suddenly, bowed deeply to the old gentleman, and said, "Sir, I have seen civilians being devastated by war in the enemy-occupied areas in the western part of the empire, and I will do everything I can to prevent such a thing from happening in the province of Tris." Thank you for your help!"

At this point, Donner stubbornly pulled out a bag of crystals from his bosom, some of which he had own, and the others that had been scavenged from the hapless Mage Arrahand.

He placed the bag on the table in front of him and continued, "If you can find another workshop to produce together, I hope this bag of crystals can help somewhat...... We can't expect everyone to look at the bigger picture like you do. ”

Mr. Cliff, picking up the pocket full of magic crystals, nodded frequently, his face full of unconcealed appreciation, "Child, what Merkel said is not wrong at all, you will be a great character." I took the magic crystal, thank you!"

On the way back from Mr. Cliff's to the lab, Donner meets an unexpected acquaintance, Mino and a dozen other comrades in the Young Army.

Mino heard Donner calling him from behind, stopped suddenly, and when he turned around and saw Donner's face peeking out of his hood, he tried to resist the urge to cry and gave Donner a strong hug.

Fearing another accident on the street, Donner hurried back to the dwarven lab.

When Wesley saw Mino and the others, he hugged again. Like Donner, seeing that there were only a dozen people left under Mino, he also had a bad premonition, so he didn't take the initiative to ask.

After the excitement of reuniting after the catastrophe, Mino talked about the experience after the separation.

Donner and Wesley were saddened to hear that they had been attacked after descending the mountain, and after escaping from the pursuit, they repeatedly tried to approach the barracks, and were ambushed by Celtic's men and horses again and again, and they were grieved to think of so many comrades who had died tragically, but in the end it did not help.

Minoan couldn't figure out why the battle would be like this when Donner had already sent back the news that Celtic had surrendered to the enemy.

Donner had gotten the general news from Natia and knew that his efforts had almost been in vain. However, he didn't tell Mino's news, and it was useless to say it, it would only make the death of those comrades seem worthless.

Donner asks Mino, why they're in Dorne.

Mino told him that since they saw the fireball message, they knew that he was not only alive, but also in enemy-occupied territory.

They were prevented from returning to the barracks, so they took refuge in the mountains near the Tedar Mountains, and in those few days, the Imperial army was defeated in the Battle of the Gunta Steppe.

When they heard the news, they knew that the eastern part of the empire was about to be in turmoil, but they didn't know what to do, so they decided to find Donner first—after so many things, Donner had replaced Mino as the spiritual pillar of this remnant youth army.

Mino had crossed the Ava River with his troops, and had a brief stop in enemy-occupied territory, where he was nearly starved to death, just like Donner when he first arrived in enemy-occupied territory.

After that, Mino agreed to Paz's speculation—that Donald had probably returned to the province of Tesri—and crossed the Ava River all the way south, and had been wandering around the city of Dorne for five days before they met in the street today.
