"According to my investigation, that's probably what happened." After Finks roughly described what happened to Darius and Tsukihime, Lydia and Kurokyuki were dumbfounded.

"In other words, Darius not only gave Prince Shannu a green hat, but in the end, he became angry and forcibly seized the throne of the Wild Sand Empire?" Lydia only felt that the three views exploded, and she didn't know if this was a poignant love story or a middle-aged and elderly dog blood ethics drama at eight o'clock.

Hei Ningxue couldn't help but sigh: "I originally thought that I was already a shameless means to lure the Ice Wolf King by entering the game, but I didn't expect this guy to play fancy than me." It seems that the second place of the 'Demon Three Beauties' is really well deserved. ”

Lydia scratched her head and had to overturn her original siege tactics, "If Darius becomes emperor, that second prince Babu should not be able to sit still, right?" ”

Hei Ningxue thought for a while, "I don't think so, although Black Emperor Ji is not one of the 'Dark Seven Sages', she is the only daughter of the Demon Lord and the Demon King. I think that the Grand Master of the Protector will sell her face and temporarily persuade the second prince Babu to make a truce. ”

Lydia suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on her back, "In other words, with the mediation of the Black Emperor, Darius may even join forces with Babu to deal with us?" ”

"Not really...... No way. Hei Ningxue also felt that the problem was a little tricky, "If the two armies of them are united, I'm afraid this castle won't last long......"

Lydia just broke down and cried. But after all, she still has to save face, and there are young people, Mira, Dennis, Nabino and others on both sides, and she has to hold a little bit of the identity of the "princess of guns".

"It seems that the enemy is going to give us some new challenges." Lydia pretended to be calm and smiled professionally, "We might as well wait and see before making a decision." ”

Having hastily ended the military meeting, Lydia walked slowly out of the tent, and when she saw that there was no one around, she pulled her legs and ran out.

"Your Royal Highness, Princess, you are really fast." Hei Ningxue said after her.

Lydia glanced at her, "Why are you running so fast in a long dress?" ”

"Because I'm wearing a skirt." Hei Ningxue carried the hem of her skirt and walked like flying, "Can you not run too fast in the short skirt you are wearing, you are almost gone." ”

Lydia snorted, "I haven't heard of pumpkin pants being gone. ”

The two of them ran quickly to a secluded tent in the barracks, and then stopped breathlessly.

"What are you doing here?" Black Snow gasped. She's still a sorcerer after all, and she's still a little worse than Lydia in terms of physical strength.

Lydia said in a hurry, "If you can't solve the crisis, what else do you say?" Of course, it's a plug-in, right? ”

The two of them lifted the curtain of the tent at the same time, and saw a sick and frail old man and an expressionless fellow sitting on a huge map.

Lydia and Black Snow had never seen such a huge map, this map depicted the entire Wild Sand Empire, every inch of the land was in full detail, from barren deserts to ruined cities, from mountains to deep valleys.

Axie, holding an old crystal magnifying glass in his hand, carefully examines every detail on the map. His face was pale and thin, as if a gust of wind could blow him down, but his face was radiant and seemed to feel infinite power.

"Residents, more residents." Axie's trembling fingers tapped on the map, "More people should know about this red pavilion paradise, and we can consider encompassing those wandering bards." ”

"Bard?" The quill in his hand rustled on papyrus.

Axy nodded deeply, "The ruined capital is in chaos now, and those bards must have nowhere to go." If we open a poets' guild and let them promote the Red Pavilion like the wandering merchants, we will have more residents. ”

He scanned the map with a magnifying glass again, "In addition, we need to build a lot of farmland near several oases to ensure the supply of food before a large number of people pour in. ”

Buxiao nodded slightly, his eyes swept over the map, "The problem is still the water source." ”

Axe confidently took out a few pages of parchment from the package he was carrying, "This is a record of an early visit to underground water sources by a colleague of mine. There are eight underground veins under the Empire's desert, which must be enough if fully utilized. ”

Buxiao quickly browsed a few pages, and pondered for a moment, "Good way, it's just that building water conservancy requires a lot of materials." ”

Axy smiled slightly, "I have discussed with Miss Rowling before leaving, she will prefabricate a batch of canal materials, and the construction can start within a month at the earliest. It should be too late to start recruiting workers now. ”

He didn't laugh and said "um" and agreed.

"It's just that if the territory of the Red Pavilion is spread over the entire desert, the traffic from south to north is too time-consuming. ”

Bu smiled sideways for a moment, and suddenly put his hand into his shadow. As he pulled it out, he pulled out a few pages of sketches, "I'm going to build this." ”

Aksai took the sketch with trembling fingertips, looked at it carefully for a while, and suddenly exclaimed: "The wisdom of the master who does not laugh is richer than the sand of the Wild Sand Empire!" Cast a track by mixing soul chips with steel, you can use soul stones to drive the carriage to run quickly. Wonderful! ”

Looking at the whimsical conversation between the two, Lydia and Hei Ningxue stood stunned for a long time. It wasn't until Buxiao and Axie turned around that the two smiled awkwardly.

"If even the smart, beautiful and resourceful Miss Hei Ningxue has to come to ask for help, presumably only the master who does not smile can answer such a question." Axy asked.

Before Lydia could speak, Hei Ningxue had already entered the play in less than a second, "Don't laugh at adults...... The concubine has let you down...... Darius actually had an indecent relationship with Tsukihime, and he also had a relationship with the Protector Archmage...... Please punish me for being a useless man......"

As she spoke, she had already knelt on the ground with tears in her eyes, and she was still the kind of person who threw herself to the ground.

Such a pious gesture of repentance made Lydia a little confused for a moment, and even began to wonder if she should also go outside to cut some wattles to carry on her back to plead guilty.

Buxiao shook his head, "It's not a big deal, someone will solve it for them." ”

As he spoke, he turned around again and looked intently at the magnificent map on the ground.

……

Nacian was in a secluded corner, looking at his former castle, in a silent daze.

Back then, it was the little fat cat and Daddy Shraf who rescued him from this place, and now he revisits the old place, and he can't help but feel a lot of emotion.

"Yo, you're here?" Maya appeared in front of him with a smile, "Did you hear the latest news?" Sannu was going to surrender to the Báb. ”

"Surrender?" Nacian suddenly felt a trance in front of him, "How could he surrender to that villain!" ”

Maya shook her head helplessly, "It is rumored that Babu hit the tower of the imperial city with the cannons of the demon clan, startling Shannu who was napping. So he hurriedly sent someone to ask for surrender. ”

Such a ridiculous fact made Nacian laugh and cry. He smashed his fist on the thigh, "There are seven princely forts connected by tunnels outside, five-pointed star watchtowers watching each other inside, a three-zhang deep moat, and a nine-zhang high city wall, how could he surrender." ”

"Don't worry, those don't exist anymore." Maya shrugged.

"Doesn't exist?" Nacian asked curiously, "What do you mean?" ”

"Babu agreed to withdraw fifteen grits, but on one condition." Maya's mouth turned into a sarcastic smile, "Fill in the moat and blow up the pentagram." ”

Nacian seemed to have heard the scolding in the wasteland, and everyone was cursing his cowardly and stupid brother. With such a mediocre and incompetent king, how can the sand not perish.

Seeing Nacian so upset, Maya couldn't help but ask, "It seems that you still have expectations for the throne?" ”

Nacian shook his head, "I don't care about the throne or anything. I only hate Sannu, who is not so angry, that he would surrender to the villain of Babu. ”

He gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you know? He poisoned my father, blamed me, defiled my sister and caused her to fall into the devil's path, and gave his youngest brother to the demon lord as a concubine in exchange for the support of the demons. How could he bow down to such a wolf-hearted guy? ”

Maya patted him on the shoulder, "I have bad news for you." ”

Nacian buried his face deep between his hands, "Is there any worse news than Sannu's surrender?" ”

"Darius killed the emperor and called the emperor......"

Maya was just halfway through speaking, but Nacian burst out laughing, "He slaughtered Sannu, this idiot? That sounds like good news. ”

"After Darius became emperor, he continued to make peace with Báb." As soon as Maya's words were finished, Nacian almost vomited three liters of blood.

He patted his thighs and widened his eyes, and he couldn't believe it: "The head of the 'Five Great War Gods' of the Wild Sand Empire is actually a soft bone?" ”

Maya snorted, "People's hearts are impermanent. Now that he sits on the throne, he naturally thinks completely differently from a generalissimo. ”

Nacian lowered his head and pondered for a moment, "Yes, he wants to compromise with Babu first, in exchange for time to deal with the Red Pavilion. As the Generalissimo, he should know something about the secret passage, if they are killed from the secret passage......"

"But no one knows where the secret passage is." Maya interrupted him.

Nacian looked her in the eye in surprise, "I know. ”

"No, you don't." Maya pressed her hand to his lips with a serious expression, "The secret passage of the Royal Castle is the secret of the Wild Sand royal family. You're no longer the Third Prince Eichner, you're Second Lieutenant Nacian in the Red Pavilion - you understand? ”

Nacian looked at Maya as if he had been punched.

Yes, once the news of the secret passage of the Royal Prince's Fort is revealed, it is revealed that his true identity must be the royal family of the Wild Sands. Even if he can't find any evidence in a short period of time, but thinking of the kind of gaze that can see through people's hearts without smiling, I'm afraid I can't hide anything from him.
