Faking illness is definitely not a new method, nor is it a very good one. A soldier who is about to go to war, or who is about to perform a major mission, suddenly falls ill, this is believed to be something that many experienced commanders have encountered, and there are different ways to deal with this kind of person.

But fortunately, Kevin is not the other party's direct subordinate, and he has no right to do anything to Kevin, even if the little spoon has a very clumsy excuse, but he can't drag Kevin out of bed at the moment. But after all, what is lost is the reputation of Lou Paule, when everyone thinks that you are pretending to be sick, no one will believe you even if you are really sick, not to mention that Kevin is indeed pretending.

Of course, most of the observers here know some inside information, even if they will say, "Kevin is greedy for life and is afraid of death, pretending to be sick and hiding." But in my heart, I actually understand what is going on, and of course I also understand that this is Kevin's last resort, whether this strategy is right or wrong, whether it is appropriate, everyone can only discuss it in private.

But no matter what, this crusade against the necromancer was evaded. was originally scheduled to leave this morning, but now it has been delayed for more than half an hour because of Kevin's "illness". Kevin is not the core figure after all, and it is impossible for so many people to cancel the expedition just because Kevin is no longer there.

The empire had no choice but to leave the embassy with its crowd and set off towards the necromancer's stronghold. However, before leaving, the Imperial people left a message: "Since you are sick this time, then take a good rest." But when we return victorious, there will be some aftermath of cleaning up in that place, and I think you'll be cured by then, right?"

Kevin was still lying on the bed and pretending to be asleep, and the others did not dare to answer casually, even if they listened to the translation. In the end, the ambassador could only come forward: "If it really doesn't work, let me replace Kevin when the time comes." ”

Van Meer glanced at the ambassador coldly: "Ambassador, we've been together for a few years, haven't we? ”

The ambassador responded in silence. Van Mill didn't say anything more, and left with everyone.

As soon as they left, Sain and the others immediately breathed a sigh of relief, they were not like Kevin, who were professional and strong, and could talk about anything. Several people worked together, but they were still very nervous, and the reasons for coming out of the hurry were extremely ridiculous, and it was an insult to everyone's intelligence to come back.

These words are inconvenient for the ambassador to speak. Once something happens, at most a few of their soldiers will not choose to say anything, and if the ambassador says the same, it will be a big problem if something happens. Thankfully, in the end, Kevin's scared everyone, and it was kind of fooled.

In fact, another reason is that several of them don't understand the imperial Chinese, and McGee can communicate with them when they are present, as long as McGee is confused, it is basically not a big problem. This is also the advantage of not knowing a foreign language, otherwise so many people come up one by one, even if Kevin sits up, he can't speak to them.

"I really admire you," Sain began, "I drank three bowls of river water last night, and I pulled the toilet this morning, I thought it was too exaggerated, but I didn't expect it to really work? ”

Kevin: "......"

The ambassador also walked over: "Actually, if you can't fool me this time, then I can only play in your place, I believe they shouldn't dare to attack me." ”

Kevin replied: "You must not go over, usually they may not dare to go to the embassy to do it, but if you go under their knife, then it is not certain." ”

Jack on the side has already begun to report: "My parrots have followed their expedition, this time their total number is about 500 or so, almost all the people of the Church of Light are dispatched, the empire basically has no reservations, and there are other people from the observation groups of various countries, more or less sent a few." The real size is still the Kobold troops, but they don't drive. ”

"Didn't drive?" everyone was slightly surprised, and then concluded, "Is it used to consume the opponent?"

But on second thought, it's not right, isn't it to fight against the necromancer and send a bunch of dead corpses to encourage the other party?

Everyone subconsciously went to see Kevin, but when they saw that Kevin was still sleeping, everyone just sighed. It's not so easy to pretend to be sick, and in order to prevent the surrounding exploration magic, Kevin will stay asleep the whole time when there is no enchantment set up to show that he is seriously ill.

And there is no need to set up enchantments all day long, so it's not good to look too mysterious, and sometimes you have to show some real acting skills. At least before they started fighting the necromancer, Kevin had to lie down, and he had to lie in the open.

"The army has come near a dilapidated house outside the city," Jack reported, "and seemed to stop and listen to their conversation, as if it were there." ”

"Wouldn't it? so close?" everyone was surprised. How long has it been since this went out? So many people have searched on such a large scale, and they haven't found it? Even if it's underground, it's easy for earth mages to explore.

"Could it be the Teleportation Array?" the ambassador had already reflected.

Jack was also quick to confirm: "Yes, they said it was a necromancer's teleportation point, but it has been destroyed. However, as long as space technology is used, it can still be restored. As long as the teleportation array is restored, then the army can be killed. ”

This is not a problem in the eyes of people who don't understand the space circle, but for people like Kevin who have learned a little, it is simply an insult to intelligence. After the teleportation array is built, it must be connected to the distant coordinates in order to operate normally, and the destruction of the teleportation array also depends on the extent of the damage. If the coordinate connection is broken, how can you connect unless you know the location of the coordinates in advance?

And if the coordinate connection is not broken, then there is something wrong with the necromancer's intelligence. They destroyed the teleportation array so that others could not find it, and they actually left the address and key?

It's just as bad an excuse as Kevin's illness, but since Kevin's illness can fool around, they obviously can. And after all, there are not too many people who really understand the space circle.

"The teleportation array is very small, so you can only go through it one by one. It's strange that the kobold wasn't the first to go in?" Jack relayed the progress over there.

"Oh, is the strong man leading the charge?" the little spoon wondered.

Sain shook his head and couldn't understand: "Kobolds shouldn't be carried, it's useless for them not to drive, and it may also increase the strength of the necromancer." ”

The ambassador sighed: "Maybe it's to cheat the funds, right?"

"What?" the crowd didn't understand.

The ambassador could only helplessly explain: "The necromancer is so strong, it is not realistic to fight it unscathed." However, it is not convenient for the Imperials, the Church of Light, or the observer groups of various countries to die on this expedition, so in order to reflect the fierceness of the battle, you can call the kobolds and ask them to increase the death toll. ”

"Is this okay?" the crowd heard the new routine.

"The more tragic the battle, the more difficult it is to win. The credit will also be greater, and at the same time, the Empire or the Church of Light will ask for more funds to purchase more powerful equipment to meet the enemy because the enemy is strong, and so on. The kobold commanders could also ask their king for a pension, but it was unknown how much money would go to the soldiers' families. The ambassador replied.

The crowd was silent.

"Of course, the kobolds are the main race here, and they can't ignore the public enemies of the mainland," the ambassador further explained, "They can't lie down and pretend to be sick like Kevin, and it's inevitable to send some people, so it's just incidental for others to take advantage of them later." ”

Everyone sighed, not knowing what to say for a while.

After a moment, Jack continued to report: "Half of the people have entered the teleportation array, the location of the dark elves has been found, and my parrot can actually enter with him, at least have an understanding of the terrain." ”

"No, I don't. Kevin spoke suddenly, but his eyes were still closed, as if he were talking in his sleep.

Everyone was surprised, and subconsciously asked, "What?"

"The situation inside the teleportation point, I can ask the light and dark elves when the time comes, it's not a big problem," Kevin said as if he were talking in a dream, still lying on the bed, "Now I have more important things for you to do." ”

Although the embassy may be monitored, it is generally difficult for the demon to understand human speech, and it is Lou Pauler's Chinese, so Kevin can keep moving, and the voice can still be some.

But to the crowd, it felt very strange to speak to a lying person. In order to maintain reasonableness, Sain leaned on Kevin and put his ear to his mouth, as if listening to a person's last words: "What did you say?"

Kevin also spoke as softly as possible, but the content was: "Don't add drama to yourself, just stand there and listen." ”

"Okay. Sain withdrew.

"We'll talk about the details when they're all in the waypoint, and then set up an enchantment to prevent leaks," Kevin began, "Jack reports on the situation. ”

Jack replied: "They are still passing through the teleportation array one by one, all the people of the Church of Light have entered, and the Imperial people have entered more than half, leaving a few to sustain the continuity, and now it is the kobolds and the observation group who take turns to enter." ”

"Teleportation array size?" Kevin asked again.

"It's small, and you can only teleport one by one," Jack replied, "maybe that's why kobolds can't drive, and the size of the car probably can't fit into this teleportation array." ”

The ambassador nodded: "And this level of teleportation array is inconvenient to bring a space ring." Accidents are prone to occur during transmission. ”

"That's going to be hard. Everyone was a little worried. Kevin's strength largely depends on the space ring, taking the spar from the inside to cast spells, and even taking the entire car out from the inside, etc. And now you can't bring a space ring, so many things can only be carried around, how much can you bring?

"Actually, that's not a problem," Kevin said, "There, if we really fight, the necromancer and the Imperials on the other side join forces, even if we drive together, it won't be their opponent." Don't leave this to chance, of course, if an eighth-order powerhouse is willing to help, then say something else. ”

The ambassador nodded: "Sure enough, do you still want to ask him for help?"

"No," Kevin refused, "confrontation is not the best way, I said that even if Van Meer is killed, the empire will send stronger people over, and the best way is still to negotiate." Stabilize Van Meer, and all problems will be solved. ”

"What is going to be done?" the crowd asked.

Kevin didn't speak, but everyone could tell he had a plan. After a while, Jack reported: "Basically all of them have entered, leaving only 4 Imperial people to stay outside, all in the state of riding dragons." ”

"Set up an enchantment," Kevin spoke, and with a wave of the ambassador's hand, the enchantment took shape, and Kevin continued to order, "You go to the kobold princess's main city at once and get our two chariots back." ”

"Where do you put it when you get it back?" Sain asked.

"Bring me the map," Kevin opened his eyes, and the little spoon hurriedly handed over the map, Kevin skillfully pointed a few points on the map, "here, here, and here." Among them, the Don chariot is mainly used to confuse opponents, and it can be disassembled into two pieces and then go around these points. And the ellipsis chariot does not move during the day, and after nightfall, quietly moves here!"

Everyone was nervous, trying to remember, Kevin continued: "The ellipsis chariot is the top priority, after arriving here, immediately disguise it, load it with the most powerful stone projectile you know, and aim at the teleportation array." If you encounter a passer-by or a suspicious person during disguise, whether it is a person or an animal or something else, you will be killed. ”

"The ellipsis chariot is very crucial, Little Spoon, Little Nine, Sain, I will send the three of you to complete the mission. Led by Little Spoon, we usually discuss it, and if there is a disagreement, everything is up to her," Kevin ordered, but considering Sain's emotions, he also explained, "She is the strongest, so there is no other meaning in sending her to command." ”

Sain nodded, but didn't say anything.

"Jack and Fett, you are responsible for covering with the Don chariot, and the parrot should not go to the ambush of the ellipsis chariot, there is something to tell the crows, and besides," Kevin methodically, "although you are mainly to confuse your opponents, the essence is also to act in the shadows. You can't be too blatant, and you can't make the other party find out, you know?"

"......" The two were silent for a moment, but still nodded, "Understood." ”

"Ambassador," Kevin turned his head, "can I trouble you? help me get a conch that can only be used for sound." ”

The ambassador nodded, "No problem." ”

Kevin was relieved: "With your help in doing things, I can continue to lie down and sleep." ”

Everyone couldn't help but feel a little emotional when they heard this, but they all understood that the pressure on Kevin was much greater than theirs.

"But we're all gone, so who's going to protect you?" asked Spoon.

"Don't worry, I'll lie here for a day, no one will touch me," Kevin confidently, "Besides, I'm not really sick and can't get up, I can jump out and resist." ”

At the same time, Kevin's crow of course also has a task: "Hey, help find some skulls, put them on your side first, maybe you can use them at a critical moment." ”

The crow has been taking care of the little tiger recently, the little tiger has not yet been weaned, it turns out that the kobold princess still has all the tools, such as feeding bottles and the like, at this time, of course, they have already taken it to continue to use, and it is milk, although this place is relatively rare, but money can still buy it.

The little tiger has grown up very quickly, and it has become significantly bigger, but it still has no combat effectiveness and can only sell cuteness. I can't even sign a contract, and my mental power hasn't grown up if I'm too young.

"Skull?" the crow was a little annoyed, "isn't there everywhere on the battlefield?

"Sorry, I'm sick and can't move at the moment. Kevin replied.

"Alas," the crow said helplessly, "why are you so tired of partnering with you?"

"Hard work. Kevin could only comfort him with two words.

"But I want to ask more, old man," replied the crow, "is this little tiger yours, or will it eventually be given away?"

Kevin was silent, and for a moment it was difficult to answer.

"I don't mean anything else," replied the crow, "and if I had to give it away in the end, then I wouldn't have taken such care to accompany it, as long as I didn't starve to death." ”

"Well," Kevin sighed, "no one wants the fat to fly away, but sometimes a lot of things aren't that simple. I can only give you this answer until I have finished my negotiations with Van Mill before I can tell you whether the little tiger is mine or not. ”

"Okay, then I'll wait for you for a few more days. Raven replied.

"Why? Doesn't sound like it's going well?" asked Kevin.

The crow complained: "The little tiger can't be kept in a cage all day, otherwise he will get sick." But once it's released, how strong can I be a crow? I rely on mental attacks, and I'm worried that I'll be stupid in a trance. Alas. ”

"Alas," Kevin sighed, but encouraged him, "soon, if it goes well, the conflict here will be resolved soon." ”

Everything was arranged, the barrier was removed, and everyone left one after another, each carrying out their own tasks. And Kevin was lying alone in bed, and this lie was from morning to night, and from night to morning.

Grunting with hunger, glad I didn't eat anything, but I didn't pull anything. It's a lot of work, but it's also a lot of time for Kevin to clear his mind and refine his plans.

The next morning, Kevin finally "woke up," ate something, and went back to sleep. Then he slept until the evening, got up and ate some, and then went back to sleep, and the man slept haggard.

For three days, Kevin created a sign of gradual improvement, from eating two meals a day, to eating three meals a day, and finally to a normal routine. Even if he has recovered, his face is still a little haggard, of course, this is due to sleeping too much and causing him to be haggard.

On this day, the space magic array finally flashed white light, and the army that had defeated the necromancers finally returned victoriously and began to come out of the teleportation array one after another. Some people were covered in blood and looked haggard, as if they had really experienced a big battle, while others were cleanly dressed and refreshed, as if they had just returned from an outing.

According to the parrot's observations, the Church of Light, the Imperial, and the Kobold all showed more or less traces of the battlefield, and the members of the Observation Mission, as if they really went to observe, almost most of them were unscathed, and there was not even ash on their bodies.

The parrot found his Dark Elf friend, hurriedly lowered to his shoulder, and asked about the situation: "How is it inside?"

The dark elves have one thing to say: "Inside is the so-called Honor of the Dead map, we played the Honor of the Dead game in it for three days, it was really exciting." ”

Parrot: "......"

When I looked back, I saw that the injured began to teleport out one after another. All of them were kobolds, with broken arms and broken legs, and their expressions were miserable. It stands to reason that in this case, the injured should go first, but now they are dragging behind everyone, and the kobold is really too low, and the Church of Light preaches equality and benevolence, etc., and actually acquiesces in this situation.

"None of us died this time, basically just a few dozen kobolds," the dark elf explained, "but the battle felt like a lot of people. ”

"Let's talk about the fighting at that time. The parrot pulled back to the topic.

The dark elves were immediately unkind, and began to talk eloquently. On the other side, Van Mill, the leader of the Imperial Dragoons, had already gone straight to the embassy of Lou Pauler, and at this time Kevin was the only one in the embassy, and everyone else was out to get busy. Kevin looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness and was making tea.

"Mr. Kevin seems to be well," Van Meer said politely.

"It's better. Kevin's voice was as weak as he could.

"This time, all the countries surrounded the necromancer, and all of them participated, except for the countries that did not have an observation mission at all. Only Lou Pauler did not participate," Van Mill looked very regretful, "This kind of thing is probably very bad for diplomacy, right?"

Kevin nodded and sighed: "Actually, after I woke up, I also learned that I missed such a major event. It's all my men, they are pedantic and inflexible, and I've punished them for digging holes and planting trees in the mountain trailer. ”

Van Mill: "......"

Kevin said regret, but smiled: "Oh, if you have such an opportunity next time, you must call me." ”

Van Mill sneered, "Really? That's what you said?"

Kevin looked wary: "This ...... Haven't the necromancers killed them all?"

"The necromancer has already been killed, but well, we will have to go in and clean up the battlefield in a while, since Mr. Kevin missed the expedition, we must not miss it again," Van Mill replied, "Anyway, it's not a battle now, and since Mr. Kevin can get up, it's okay to go and take a look." ”

Kevin still seems to be hesitating.

Van Meer immediately grabbed Kevin's hand and smiled on his face: "Come on, come on, you're welcome." ”

"Wait, wait," Kevin panicked, "then put me on a dress." ”

"Okay, then I'll wait for you at the door of the waypoint," Van Mill let go of his hand, "If you don't come back, or if you get sick again, you can't say anything." ”

Van Mill said, and the people really went out. The conquest army had all teleported back and dispersed, with only the Imperials still waiting around the waypoint. Van Mill also asked the dragoons who stayed behind: "What happened after we left?"

"Ambassadors rarely come back and don't know where they have gone. A few of Kevin's men were pushing their broken carts and wandering around outside, not knowing what to do. The dragon knight replied.

According to his answer, he punished them for pushing a cart outside to mine and plant trees. Van Meer replied.

"This ...... I said, sir, do you believe it?" the dragon knight couldn't help but ask, "this man sometimes looks stupid, could it be that he is all pretending?"

Van Mill didn't answer directly: "It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, it doesn't matter if he's really stupid or fake, it doesn't matter if he's the mastermind behind the scenes, or if he's a pawn pushed to the forefront." The important thing is that our side has leaked secrets, and I must have an explanation. ”

"So he has to die?" asked the dragon knight.

"Yes, there is no other suitable person but him. Van Meer replied.

At this time, Kevin was being pulled over by an imperial dragoon, Kevin seemed very reluctant, but he had no choice but not enough strength and could only be dragged over.

"Sir, Mr. Kevin tried to escape by jumping out of the back window, and I pulled him over. The dragon knight reports.

Kevin defended: "How could I run away? I just ...... Just ......"

"Alright," Van Mill interrupted, "Mr. Kevin naturally has his point, since he is here, then let's go in?"

"Ah, that, don't ...... anymore" Kevin still wanted to talk nonsense, but the person on the side had already pushed him directly into the teleportation array, and the white light teleported away in an instant.

Van Meer immediately tried to follow up, but the Imperial people on the side said more: "I see that he was full of aura in the hotel last time, but now he is speechless, could this be some kind of trap?"

Fan Mill sneered: "What kind of trap can there be? You can't bring a ring after the teleportation array, even if he is full of crystals, he can't become a magic array, there are dozens of people watching, what can he do alone?"

"Could it be that he hides his strength? In fact, what kind of first-class powerhouse is he?"

"The last time I slashed at the tavern, he didn't react at all, what kind of first-class powerhouse is so weak?" Van Meer disdained, "If he was really a sword master, we would have died a long time ago." ”

All the Imperial people on the side felt justified, and Van Mill stepped into the teleportation array, and with a flash of white light, he had already arrived at the map of the glory of the dead. In front of him, Kevin had been restrained, imprisoned by ice, and the whole person was frozen in ice except for his head.

"Hidden strength?Sword Master?" Van Mill scoffed, Kevin's resistance in front of him can be described as weak and powerless, if he can really hide to such a point, this acting skill is also shocking.

"Let him go," Van Memeer waved his hand, "and ask you a few more questions at the end." ”

With a wave of his hand, the ice shattered, and Kevin fell out of it, stood on the ground to stabilize his emotions, and laughed dryly: "You guys are really rude, not gentlemen at all." ”

Van Mill was slightly surprised, and he felt that Kevin's attitude had changed somewhat: "You don't seem to be scared anymore?"

"I wasn't scared. Kevin replied.

"Oh, then why did you just jump out of the back window?" Van Mill asked.

Kevin smiled and didn't answer the question: "I'll say it first, you must not kill me, or you will regret it." ”

Van Mill smiled: "Are you threatening me?"

Kevin looked up, "This is the map of the glory of the dead?"

"Yes, very learned," Van Mill praised, "so don't think that someone will come to save you, there are my dragon knights guarding the teleportation point, even if your ambassador comes, you won't be able to enter." ”

"The ellipsis chariot independently developed by our country has been ambushed on the nearby mountain, ready to go, aiming at the teleportation point outside," Kevin said bluntly, "I'm afraid that the dragon knights you left behind outside the teleportation point haven't found it yet." If I die......"

Van Mill's face changed, and he immediately turned to leave.

"Wait!" Kevin hurriedly spoke, "If the first person out isn't me, my people will immediately launch an ellipsis attack." This time it is loaded with the most powerful magic array, and the ellipsis has the function of continuous firing, and the power should be able to wipe out all the dragon knights left in your vicinity. ”

Van Mill turned: "You ......"

"Also, don't try to use Transfiguration or anything like that to make a fake me and let the first one out," Kevin replied, "I still have a contract beast, and the moment I go out, I can mentally contact my contract beast." And you can't do it. ”

"I don't know if there are other entrances and exits in this alien dimension, and once the teleportation point is destroyed, I don't know if you can get out?" Kevin said calmly, "A weak person like me will have this kind of bargaining chip left to die together." ”

Van Mill was furious and grabbed Kevin: "Do you think this will threaten me?"

Kevin didn't fight again, but said in a calm tone: "Don't get me wrong, my intention was never to threaten you, and I have no personal vendetta with you." I've often heard the ambassador mention you, and our ambassador has always praised you, saying that you are very handsome. ”

Van Mill: "......"

"He said you are very intelligent, very powerful, and have amazing potential. On the kobold's side, as long as he has two more years of experience, he will inevitably be a hegemon when he returns to the empire. No matter how bad it is, you can mix it up with the city lord, and the governance experience you accumulate here will make your main city far superior to the rest. This is an observation mission from all countries, and you can manage it with strong men from all countries, and it's not easy to go back to a group of civilians?"

"An excellent city lord can naturally keep climbing up. You are the leader of the dragon knights at such a young age now, and you have unlimited potential in the future, and it will not necessarily be difficult to become a sword master. It's not the same as before, and the Juggernaut is no longer an unattainable thing. And according to the rules of the empire, a saint-level powerhouse has a chance to become an emperor!"

"The current emperor is the Great Magister, so he is called the Emperor of the Law. And if you are the king of God, you are the emperor of the sword. A true world overlord. Kevin described a distant dream, "You can even change your name at will, you can call Dragoon Emperor." ”

Van Mill gradually loosened Kevin's collar: "......"

"So you have such a great future, why are you killing me now?" Kevin pulled back to the point.

Van Mill: "......"

"Don't fool me!" Van Mill reacted.

"I'm just stating the stakes," Kevin replied, then turned his head around, "I don't know if there's a necromancer hiding here, and if so, help persuade me." ”

Everyone glanced at each other, and was about to answer, when suddenly a puff of black smoke flew in, condensing into a human form not far from everyone. A man in a black robe walked out slowly.
