The smile that Long Kongkong had on his face every day had completely disappeared at this moment. Long Dangdang was very silent, and the silence was a little depressing.

"You should get the idea. Xue'er chose to leave for fear of affecting her family. Although she is usually eccentric, she is assertive and stubborn, and what she decides will definitely go all the way to the dark. Your grandmother and I went to see her, but she was really going to kill herself in front of us, and we were so scared that we had to give up. She refuses to accept any kindness from her family, even if it is to help your father advance. She used her actions to completely break away from her relationship with the Ling family. But we all know that all her efforts are for the Ling family and for us. Speaking of which, Old Man Ling is already in tears.

"Time has passed, and after so many years, the Templar has long since cleared her suspicions. But even so, she never returned. Because she doesn't want the slightest threat to us. Do you know? She wants to let you come home this time, and your grandmother and I are so happy. We've been waiting for this day for a long time, too long. So, Grandpa begs you today, when you return to Dragon City, tell her that everything is over, and nothing will affect our family, let her come back, your grandmother and I, and her brothers and sisters miss her very much......"

Old Man Ling couldn't say any more, with his Holy Hall honor, he was crying with tears in his eyes at this time, and at this moment, he really showed his old state.

Long Dangdang stood up, came to Old Man Ling's side, and gently stroked his back.

Long Kongkong sat there a little distracted, and there was a faint trace of anger flickering in the depths of his eyes.

"Why did the Templar do this to Mom? They don't have any evidence. Long Kongkong muttered to himself.

"Empty!" Long Dangdang suddenly shouted.

Long Kongkong shuddered, looked up at Long Dangdang, his eyes were a little red, "Brother, mom, she ......, I, I want to go back to see her." ”

Long Dangdang looked at his younger brother and said softly: "It's over, it's all over." Mommy is fine now, you relax a little. Mom and Dad are very happy together. Even if she had no choice at the beginning, she is very happy now. She has her dad, and she has us. She hasn't been unhappy all these years. "He's comforting his brother, but isn't he comforting his grandfather?

The uncles and aunts gave a little too much to meet today, and they are only two children. And when he listened to his grandfather tell this story, he understood that this was a compensation, a compensation for his mother.

Did Mom do the right thing? Long Dangdang didn't know. With the Ling family's ability, they would definitely be able to protect her at the beginning. But she chose to do so anyway. Use your own pain to repay the Ling family's nurturing grace. And he was willing to let himself and his brother bring back the letter this time, probably because time has passed, and she has gradually forgotten what she used to be.

Old Man Ling gradually suppressed his sadness, and his eyes became a little deep, "Back then, I couldn't protect your mother, but don't worry, what happened in the past will never happen again." If anyone dares to question your identity, even if you fight this old bone and fight the entire Ling family, I will seek justice. ”

Ling Xue's matter has been suppressed in Old Man Ling's heart for too long, for too long, he has a clear conscience in his life, and it is this adopted daughter who is ashamed. Now, seeing that his adopted daughter's two sons are so good, why don't he have mixed feelings in his heart while he is relieved?

"Grandpa." Long Dangdang looked at Old Man Ling, "I think, externally, we still don't think it's good to think of each other." ”

Old Man Ling's face changed slightly, and he said bitterly: "Yes, it was all my fault back then......

Long Dangdang interrupted him at this time and said, "Grandpa, you listen to me, I didn't mean that. What happened back then could not have been your fault. If you hadn't rescued my mother from that desert island, not to mention us, even she wouldn't have survived there. Mom must have never hated you, knowing the truth of the matter, the reason why she chose that way, I think, is also to repay her kindness, at least not to involve the Ling family. ”

"And the reason why I said that it is not suitable to recognize you and get involved with the Ling family is actually mainly because of the matter of this Spirit Furnace Heavenly Election Ceremony. Cousin is so good, don't you think the Ling family is already too powerful? Today, we were shocked to hear the identities of several uncles, but at the same time, I believe that our Ling family also has the pressure that the Ling family is under. If I let the Holy Hall know that the other two students who have obtained the Wisdom Spirit Furnace, especially the empty space that has obtained the Divine Prayer Yu Tong Spirit Furnace, are also from the Ling family, I am afraid that there will be even more jealous people. ”

Old Man Ling was slightly stunned, looking at the young man in front of him, he couldn't help but be surprised by his mind and calmness, this is a young man who has not yet reached the age of fifteen! His mind was so delicate that he thought of this.

"Your grandfather knows. However, I don't want you to be wronged again. That's why I didn't think about it. Old Man Ling said.

Long Dangdang nodded, and because of this, after listening to his grandfather tell about his mother, he still didn't have any prejudices against this grandfather. If Old Man Ling cared more about the status of the Ling family, then he could contact them secretly, without asking his cousin to bring them back directly. And the relationship between them and the Ling family, not many people should know about it now. After all, her mother has been gone for almost twenty years, and her suspicion has long been cleared. Even on the side of the Spirit Furnace Academy, there are very few people who hear them call their cousins.

"Grandpa, we and my cousin are teammates now, and it is normal to come to our cousin's house as guests, or to be invited by the Ling family. Even if the Templar knew about our relationship, I don't think we would be too close, after all, my mother had separated from the Ling family, and she was not related by blood. Therefore, I think we should try to come to the Ling family as little as possible in the future, at least until we really grow up, and not appear too close to you, so that it will be good for the Ling family and good for us. The Templar hasn't done much yet, but I'm sure they'll be paying close attention to the owner of the Wisdom Furnace. ”

Old Man Ling sighed lightly, "Child, thank you for thinking so much about the Ling family." You're right. However, the Templar should not be able to think about it so much at this time. Now that you know about the tides of the dead, there are some things I can tell you. ”

Speaking of this, his eyes became serious, "The undead tide is more terrifying and more serious than you imagined. Now the Templar is doing its best to deal with it. Recently, the tide of the undead is about to start breaking out again. And after decades of continuous struggle, even the news, the federation is a little overwhelmed. The Templar and even the Six Great Temples are now running out of staff. This is also the reason why your senior students of the Spirit Furnace Academy were directly pulled out. In this case, there is no longer any need to care about the internal power struggle, but only to unite externally. ”

Long Dangdang was stunned, and Long Kongkong also subconsciously raised his head.

"How serious is it?" Long Kongkong asked subconsciously.

Old Man Ling said, "To the west, more than seven percent of the land that occupies the entire Holy Demon Continent has been occupied by undead creatures. So, now it's not just a matter of the tides of the undead, it's a battle of destruction that fights each other. ”

Hearing his words, the brothers couldn't help but gasp, because they both thought of what Yu Tong had said before, the more undead creatures there are, the more they will rise, and they are more terrible than the plague. A comrade who dies in battle is likely to become an enemy in the next moment. Seven percent of the continent's area doesn't sound like much, but it's also a pretty vast area, and such an area is already full of undead creatures, what a terrible thing!

Old Man Ling said in a deep voice: "This is not the most terrifying, the reason why the Federation is about to be unable to suppress the undead tide is because now there are undead creatures that have begun to infiltrate the inland, they not only have strong destructive power, but the most terrifying thing is the cemetery that infects us, especially the cemetery of professionals." The result is a powerful undead creature. The entire federal government and the Templars are now busy. I'm one of the few churches left in the Holy City, and even I have to take turns guarding the cemetery. The situation of infiltration can be imagined. Therefore, the Federation, which is now calm on the surface, has actually reached a point of life and death. No one knows what the next undead tide will bring. According to federal estimates, if undead creatures occupy more than 30% of the continent in the future, then there is a possibility that humanity will be wiped out. ”

This time, even the anger that appeared in Long Kongkong's previous eyebrows disappeared, and when they heard about the undead creatures, although they were originally surprised in their hearts, as long as they thought that there were so many strong people in the Federation, and there were also Sanctuary seats, they didn't think that this was a disaster that could affect all mankind, and at this time, listening to what their grandfather said, they really understood the seriousness of the situation.

"I can also tell you the news that due to the seriousness of the situation, although you are still junior students, I am afraid that you will soon be in the ranks of fighting against the tide of the undead. Not only that, but all the advanced academies of the Temple Academy, students over the age of fifteen who have attained the third rank or above will be recruited. ”

"The reason why I called you here today is not only to recognize your relatives, but also to help you make some preparations in advance." Old Man Ling said.

Long Dangdang said: "Grandpa, how long are we left to be recruited?" It's a must-go, right? ”

Old Man Ling nodded and said, "For the sake of the Federation and all mankind, the current requisition orders are mandatory. But as the graduates of the Spirit Furnace Academy, you are also the hope of the future, and even the main force in the future to fight against the tide of the undead, it will be relatively easy. It should be up to you to form a demon hunting group in advance, and then complete some tasks that focus on cleaning up and infiltrating internally. This kind of security will be higher. When you grow stronger, you will have to go to the battlefield. ”

Long Dang said: "Grandpa, isn't there a lot of powerful forbidden spells in our Federation, especially over there in the Magic Temple?" Can't you counterattack and compress the living space of those undead creatures? ”

Old Man Ling sighed and said, "If you can think of it, the Federation must have tried." It's not that easy. On the side of the undead, there are also god-level existences. Among them, the most terrible is the power of pollution. Once polluted by the Undead Tide, all creatures in the area will become undead. Whether it is a human or an animal, even the spiritual furnace can be infected. Most of our high-level mages are focused on maintaining the protective shield they use to fight, so that the infestation of these undead tides is resisted and does not continue to spread widely. And once we launch the forbidden spell to attack, most of the people we can kill are low-level undead creatures, and correspondingly, they will also retaliate, so far, we have not taken any advantage, and the Templar and the federal government have never made up their minds to fight the undead tide. I've tried it before, but the problem is that even if the undead tide is solved on the surface, in fact, the high-level undead creatures are lurking, and the next time they appear, they will bloom more. The current situation is actually deliberate, and it is much better to let the undead creatures gather within a certain area than for them to lurk, at least some of the powerful undead creatures are in our field of vision. It's always nice to set it up. ”

Speaking of this, the old man paused before continuing: "As for the time when you were recruited, it should be very soon. When you are recruited, the Furnace Academy will be temporarily closed and managed by the Templar as a repository for the Furnace. In the future, in the exchange of meritorious deeds, the spirit furnace will occupy a very important position, and it will also stimulate the soldiers to use their lives. ”

The Spirit Furnace Academy is closing? Long Dangdang looked at Long Kongkong, and his heart couldn't help but be heavy. It's no wonder that the academy has suddenly strengthened its actual combat training recently, although I don't know how the academy managed to simulate those powerful demons and bring them into that kind of simulation space, but it is conceivable that that kind of simulation space consumes a lot of resources. Is it because they are about to join the battlefield?

Long Kongkong's eyes looked a little hollow, and what he was thinking about at this time was, if he was requisitioned, then, what would happen to the rib shop? What about the goddess sister?

"I'll take you to a place where your grandfather has prepared a welcome gift for you."
