"I didn't expect you to look honest and black-bellied. Akali quipped.

"Anyway, you're leading the army, not me, and you're going to do these shady things in the end. Yunhai shrugged indifferently.

Both of them laughed.

After the laughter, Akali continued her question.

"Are there any other reasons why you chose Brandenburg as our home base?" asked Akali continued.

"Then it's geographical. Yunhai smiled slightly. "Brandenburg is located in the east of Germany, not far from the sea in the north, easy to transport by sea, in the east is an uncivilized area, where there are few people and only a few nomadic tribes live, so that we do not have to suffer from the enemy in the future, and in the south there are the Gregorian mountains, and you can see how steep the terrain is, if Trist is really stupid enough to attack us from here, then what are we polite. In this way, only the west of us will be attacked, but it is still a long and narrow valley, which is not convenient for the deployment of large troops, and it is in our favor, isn't it......?

"That's foolproof!" Akali clapped her hands. "Yunhai, I didn't expect you to know the geography of Europe very well, it seems that you have specialized in research. ”

"That's natural, Fluttershy has been pestering me to be her guide when she learns that I can come here, so I have to take advantage of this month and a half to study the geography and humanities of Europe, etc., and turn myself into a Europ, or how can I know so much about the geography of this neighborhood?"

"Well, it looks like there's a lot of motivation...... Akali pouted. "So, after we have captured Brandenburg, how are we going to develop?"

"In my opinion, the best way for us to do this is to expand to the east, where there is more uncultivated wasteland and where the climate is pleasant, and there will be unexpected benefits in encouraging people to emigrate there. Yunhai thought for a while and said. "As for politics and economics, you know more than I do, so I won't say more. ”

"It is my intention to persuade a few of my more upright lords of knowledge to come to our aid, and that we may make as many contacts with them as we may make use of the strength of the northern island nation of England, and they will surely be willing to help us. ”

The two talked like this for more than an hour, and when the sun had gone down for a long time, the two of them finished everything and returned to the castle.

As soon as they return to the castle, Clouds and Akali bump into Fluttershy.

"You two, you had a great date~" Fluttershy smiles ambiguously.

"No, I'm just talking to Akali about things. Yun Hai hurriedly argued.

"Ha Lu Ha~" Fluttershy covers her mouth and snickers. "Stupid husband is so cute, of course I know that you and Akali are discussing things, or I would have gone over and eavesdropped. Akali, although I don't really understand the formation and political economy, but when it comes to fighting, I can definitely be trusted!"

"Girls always shout and kill or something, not ladylike at all......" Yun Hai muttered quietly.

"What's the matter!" Fluttershy hears Fluttershy hear, though the sea of clouds is quiet. Fluttershy immediately put on a pretty face, looked at the sea of clouds playfully, and said, "This princess just doesn't have the temperament of a lady, what's the matter, you're not satisfied?

"Uh, no, no, you're the most beautiful and cute, I don't have any dissatisfaction, it's really ......" Yun Hai's voice trembled a little.

"Hmph, that's pretty much ......" Fluttershy snorted and returned to her room.

"Huh......" Yunhai wiped the beads of sweat on his head. "Women are such strange animals...... It hurts, why kick me!"

Yunhai clutched his thighs and looked at Akali innocently.

"Who told you to speak ill of us, you deserve it!"

Immediately afterwards, Akali also left the sea of clouds full of grievances and returned to her room.

"A woman's heart, a needle under the sea, this is true......"

Yun Hai let out a long sigh and shook his head.

Elena quickly changed into civilian clothes and left the Gregorian Mountains, and from the outside, no one would associate this plainly dressed young woman with the famous leader of the Wings of Light, but under Elena's cloak there was actually the longbow and a pair of daggers.

One of the important reasons why she dared to pack the ticket in front of Akali was that she knew that there was a person who could help her find Katarina's traces, and that person was the person who taught her this skill, Rogue Rex.

She changed into a fast horse, did not dare to stop for a moment, and rushed directly to the Aegean Sea, hundreds of miles away, in the city of Athens.

Athens, named after the Greek goddess of wisdom Athens, is also a famous city in southern Europe, located in the northwest of the Aegean Sea, the sea of gold, compared with Rome and Venice, the fame is not bad at all, the beautiful scenery attracts a large number of tourists to visit here, countless nobles come here for vacation, and also create a rich economy here.

But Elena was not interested in visiting the scenery, and she easily found a nondescript house among the buildings made of gray and white stone brick walls, on which was clearly and neatly written: Elkins Law Firm.

Elena didn't choose to knock on the door, but took out a wire, reached into the keyhole, and tossed it seemingly randomly, and after a few seconds, only a crisp "click" sound was heard, and the lock opened.

Elena entered unceremoniously, closed the door, and stepped onto the staircase made of old oak, which creaked in the dim light.

"Elena, it seems that your skills have not regressed, not bad. As Elena stepped into the hallway on the second floor, a man's voice came from behind a door, old but not magnetic.

"Teacher, I have something to ask you for this time. Elena bowed deeply to the door at the end of the hallway.

"Ha Luha, you haven't seen my old bone for a while, you say there's something? Don't worry, let me make you a cup of coffee, but I'm afraid you'll be tired of the new arrival from Arabia, from the Gregorian Mountains. ”

With that, the door at the end of the corridor opened, and a man in a suit sat elegantly on the sofa, holding a copy of the "Encyclopedia of Laws", smiling at Elena.

This man's hair has turned gray, he is probably in his early fifties, and the muscles of his face have begun to atrophy, but his physique is still strong, and it can be vaguely seen that he must have had great strength when he was young.

This person is the once famous European thief Rex, whose full name is Rex Elkins.

"The teacher is all right, and Alina is relieved. Elena said as she took off her cloak, revealing a waterfall of brown hair. "Then let's go to the living room first, and I'll tell you again when we get there. ”

"Okay, please wait a minute. ”

Rex went to the kitchen, and Elena sat down on the sofa in the living room, looking out of the second-floor window at the street below in the afternoon, silent and bright.

I remember when she was twelve years old, she was just a little girl who didn't know anything about the world, at that time the thief Rex was the idol of countless girls in Europe, countless people imagined that this martial arts thief was dressed in the starlight of the night, descended on his boudoir, and offered a sweet kiss, but Elena was not such a girl, she was more brave, more aware of what she wanted, she dreamed that she could become such a martial arts thief, and Rex was the one who could make her dream come true.

That day, she waited hard on the street in the middle of the night, trying to find the traces of the Rogue Rex, but she didn't wait for the coveted Rogue Rex, but waited for a group of hooligans who took advantage of the night to steal chickens and dogs, they were eyeing Elena's beauty, and were trying to plot against her, but they didn't expect that Rex really appeared and defeated them in an instant, and it was in the help of these hooligans that Elena and Rex met for the first time.

"Little girl, why don't you go home on such a dark night?"

"Because I'm going to see the one who only comes at night. ”

Elena clearly remembered that this was the first conversation between the two of them, and Rex was quickly attracted by this sentence, and in this dark alley, he talked to Elena.

Rex was already middle-aged, his physical strength and energy were not as good as before, he began to think about retiring from the rivers and lakes, returning to his hometown, to live a peaceful life, and this life, and at this time Elena was still young, full of vigor and vitality, and wanted to realize his dream of becoming a thief to eliminate harm for the people, to protect the people under his territory from violation.

The two almost hit it off, and Rex did not hesitate to choose to take Elena as his apprentice and pass on all his knowledge to her, and that very night, the aristocratic Miss Elena Freicleman disappeared, leaving only a letter that said, "I'm going to chase the night."

In three years, Elena followed Rex to wander around Europe, and also followed Rex to do chivalrous deeds, they traveled across the ocean, went to distant England, Asia Minor, and even the holy city of Jerusalem, and gradually experienced the glory and hardships of being a thief, and most importantly, she experienced the suffering of the lower class people, and finally understood why there are thieves in this world, and why this world needs thieves, and even the nobles and kings who began to hate the tyranny and tyranny, hoping that one day, Europe will usher in a new light。

During this time, Elena meets his son Wallace, who is the same age as herself, and the grave of Rex's wife, and understands why Rex became such a thief.

It turned out that Rex was also the son of a nobleman, and he and his wife Sophia fell in love at first sight at a ball of the nobility and were soon engaged.

Unexpectedly, the high-ranking Athenian governor also took a fancy to her wife, lured her with wealth, threatened with power, and asked Sophia to be his mistress.

Naturally, Sophia would not agree, and she soon married Rex on the beautiful Aegean Sea and had a child named Wallace.

Unexpectedly, the Athenian governor became angry after being refused, and used power to frame the two families, as a result, their nobility was revoked, and the whole family was arrested, only Rex and Wallace, who were away from home, survived, but Sophia was innocently executed.

Rex fell into extreme grief, as a young man lost his status as a nobleman, became a fugitive, and lost the opportunity to be self-reliant, hiding in the night, never to be seen by the world again.

Determined to take revenge, he sought out all kinds of martial arts, from swordsmanship to magic, from light to machine, and he frantically studied everything he could, just so that one day he could avenge his wife and slash the Athenian governor.

Time flies, twenty years have passed, Rogue Rex has long since become a household name in Europe, and his enemy has become a high-ranking official of a kingdom, finally, in a long-planned operation, Rex got revenge, but was also pierced through the chest by a sharp sword, seriously injured, difficult to heal.

Rex decided to retire and return to Athens on the Aegean Sea to spend the rest of her life as a lawyer, while Elena returned to her long-lost hometown and became a famous ranger.

Therefore, the Rogue Rex, who has been active in various places in recent years, is actually no longer Elkins Rex, but his son Wallace, who inherited his father's business and is bent on making a name for himself.

"Elena, I've kept you waiting. Rex walked out with two cups of coffee.

"Excuse me, teacher. Elena graciously took the cup with both hands.

"Recently, just in time for Trist's usurpation, he has also stepped up the purge of opponents, doesn't it matter where the Gregorian Mountains are?"

"It's not optimistic. Elena shook her head. "But fortunately, the turnaround has already appeared, and I am asking you for this purpose this time. ”

"Turnaround, can you tell me more about it?" asked Rex, intrigued.

"Princess Akali has returned to Europe, determined to overthrow the usurper Trist and bring Europe back to the track of light and peace, she found me the other day, and I am now loyal to her, and this time I have been entrusted by her to find news of Princess Caterina and rescue her, and to ask my teacher to help me. ”

Elena said very respectfully, and then, looking into Rex's deep gaze.
