Ticialis said this, her tone paused slightly, and then she looked at Freya helplessly and said: "That's why that sister of mine keeps leading the team to surround me, and that's why I left the palace at the bottom of the deep sea and appeared on the surface of the sea.

"You want me to help you assassinate your sister?" Ryan asked.

"Oh no, absolutely not. Ticylis hurriedly vetoed: "Let a legendary mage with unlimited potential be an assassin? unless I have the luxury of having an army composed entirely of legendary powerhouses! Generally speaking, the more powerful the mage, the more time it takes to gather mana, why not put such a character on the battlefield of frontal attack and defense, but sacrifice it? ”

"And what do you mean?"

"That's right, my mother, that is, the current Naga Empress, has a total of 19 heirs, and after so many years of intrigues, there are only 4 left, among which I and my sister Shadurellna are equally strong, and my strength is slightly stronger than hers, but I only have 1 legendary powerhouse here, and she has 2. This makes me very disadvantaged in skirmishes. As for the other two sisters, it will be difficult for them to shake our position, but we will not attack them easily, because under their desperate resistance, our strength will be greatly compromised, and the balance between me and my sister will be broken. ”

"And the battle between the heirs has reached such a point that it is difficult to confront each other by other means, and unless a frontal, full-scale, undying war breaks out, it is almost impossible to prove who is stronger between me and her. "Then, according to our tradition, it is likely that at the next festival sacrifice, my sister will offer to fight with me, because this will not shake the foundation of our Naga rule." In the dueling arena of the festival and sacrifice, three people were dispatched from each side, and my sister and I had to appear as the heirs of the imperial family. The one who wins in the end will be unconditionally supported by my mother and become the true successor. ”

"In other words, since you lack a manpower at the top level, you want me to help you?" Ryan was keenly aware of Tixilis's intentions, so he asked, "Do your rules allow you to use foreigners to participate in this level of gladiatorial combat?"

"Of course, how could I have brought it up otherwise?" said Tisilis, "The two legendary powerhouses under my sister, one is a shark-like fish-man, and the other is a magician of unknown race, it is said that he is a lich who has abandoned his body, but over the years, everyone who has seen him has died, except for my sister. ”

"Lich?" Ryan and Freya looked at each other, a little surprised in their hearts, if this lich was sent by the undead legion, like Catherine who was reversed into a human, then wouldn't it mean that the layout of the undead legion was far beyond imagination?

"Let me think about it first. Ryan didn't refuse Tixilis, but he didn't immediately agree to her, because Ryan couldn't tell how much of Tixilis's words were true, maybe she deliberately made it up in order to deceive her into joining, so Ryan said to Tixilis: "I'm going to our human capital soon, if you want, I can take you with me." ”

"I see. Ticilis knew in her heart that her words could not win the trust of the other party very well, after all, everything was said by her, and there was no way to use the facts to face it, but Ryan did not refuse on the spot, which means that she still has a great chance, which depends on her luck next.

"Then, you can rest first, and if you need anything, please directly command my personal guards. Queen Freya stood up and said, "During your stay at Cassano, we will ensure your safety, but in order to prevent news of your arrival from leaking out......"

"Rest assured, I have a way of guaranteeing this. Tisilith squirmed and said, "But I need a teacher who can teach my language, and it would be safer if I could be given another reasonable status." ”

"Okay, I'll arrange. Freya nodded in agreement.

After arranging for someone to secretly send Tesiris away, Ryan sat in his chair and was silent for a long time, and Freya sat beside him and asked in a low voice, "What, are you going to agree to her request?"

"If the demigod lich can send Catherine to us, why can't we send another fellow to the Naga?" Ryan asked Freya.

Freya nodded and said, "It's very likely, but can you be sure of what she said?"

"I'm sure ......," Ryan said, with a strange smile on his face, "I'm sure half of what she just said was untrue." I'm willing to bet that it wasn't easy for Tixilis to appear on the surface, and that she couldn't be as strong as her sister, and I guess the most likely scenario was that she would have to add an ally to take on her sister, and now that her ally was a little unreliable, that's why she ventured to us. Besides, she asked us to open the portal for her before she fulfilled her promise to us, and if she returned safely to her territory and refused to fulfill her promise, would we not be able to hunt her down for thousands of miles? ”

Freya also smiled: "Ryan, you are becoming more and more like a true lord. The current situation is that Ticylis urgently needs our help, because the Celebration Sacrifice she spoke of is about to begin, and her strength is not strong enough to gain the upper hand in the gladiatorial battle of the Celebration Sacrifice, and even the odds of victory are low. As for us, even if that Shadurilna gains the throne of the Naga clan, even if she sends a huge army to attack us, it may be ten years later, and there are some natural barriers between the continent and the sea, which can not be achieved overnight. ”

"That's all there is to it. Ryan replied with a nod.

Ticilis's visit was only a small episode for the busy Cassano, except for a very few people such as Ryan, the others did not know that a Naga royal woman had visited the human territory, and had also become the guest of the Cassano overlord Ryan. Ticilis's language talent is not bad, it only took three days to learn simple human language, which can barely be used for daily communication, as for her new identity is even simpler, Freya directly concocted a female elf identity that does not exist at all to her, and Ticilis has become a member of Freya's personal bodyguard.

On the seventh day of Tisilis' arrival in Cassano, the fourth day after she learned the human language, while she was stammering and talking to Ryan in her newly learned language, Clifford and the others from Mochizuki City arrived at Tekken Castle, and less than a day later, Chiraviv from the Free Heaven also arrived, and the two would represent their city and the Imperial Alliance, respectively.

Originally, the most convenient and easiest route from the south of the mainland to Fernando City in the north was through Seke City, but now this city that originally belonged to Senate has fallen into the hands of the Undead Legion, and the Undead Legion has also built a fortress made entirely of white bones in the border town of Maury on the border with the imperial capital, so Clifford and the others had to go around in a big circle and divert to Cassano to the north.

For this reason that is too reasonable to be reasonable, the only thing Ryan can do is to smile bitterly in his heart, he is no longer a simple teenager when he first left his hometown, how can he not see that Clifford They do this Although there are security considerations, but in fact, the biggest intention is to release a message to the imperial capital, although several forces in the south of the continent are not as good as God, but they will unite around Cassano, plus the elves who have been stationed in Cassano and the dwarves who have migrated here en masse, Cassano has inevitably become the spokesperson of various forces in the south of the continent, and although the combined strength of everyone is still not as good as the imperial capital, it can already barely compete with the imperial capital.

However, Ryan did not say a word, because he had already thought of a way to deal with it, that is, to send his parents and only son to the imperial capital and live with his wife Faraz for a while. Of course, Ryan doesn't think this is an act of giving authority, because Faras is his wife, and it is a natural thing to take care of his parents, not to mention that he has no ambition at all to play any tricks such as the autonomy of the southern continent. At the same time, Ryan also knows very well that Clifford is not really close to him because he worships himself, it is his overwhelming legendary power that forces them to make such a choice, don't forget that whether it is Moon City or Freedom Heaven, but they have to moan under Ryan's magic, yesterday's enemies can certainly become today's friends, but who can guarantee that they will not become tomorrow's enemies again?

What power, what hegemony, for Ryan is far less important than family and friendship, so Ryan finally made this seemingly cowardly choice, but if anyone really thinks that Ryan is afraid of something, it is a big mistake, from the time he left his hometown to the present, any guy who despised Ryan has finally tasted the bitter fruit that is difficult to swallow, and the vast majority of them have never had the opportunity to correct their mistakes. For Ryan, this trip to the imperial capital is a game of balancing interests, it is absolutely impossible for the various forces in the south of the continent to break away from the imperial capital, but Ryan will not sit idly by and watch the imperial capital forcibly annex them, since the current situation of the continent is like this, then it is better to let it continue like this, as for how it will develop in the future, let time make a choice.
