"But if they intend to attack us, then it is impossible to use this kind of magic that is very easy to detect in the first place, and the six-ring magic is not as rare as it is at other levels in our level of power. Renier explained.

"If it's our adversary, then they'll sneak up on us. With such a large team, even if we cover it up well, there are always some clues that can get them to find us. Renier analyzed.

"That's true, if it were me, I would find the ruins first, and then ambush them at the entrance of the ruins for a while. If there are no people, then the ruins are naturally ours, and if there are enemies, ambush them, and their strength will not be much higher than ours. This will not delay the search for the ruins, and there will not be too much danger. Cornelia thought for a moment and said.

"Your Highness is wise. Renier quietly slapped a first-class sycophant.

"Don't talk too much nonsense, I'm not in the mood to listen to your nonsense that I learned from that group of bureaucrats right now. So what about that team, it looks like they're going to follow us, and I don't want too many people to know about the ruins first. Cornelia asked.

Renier didn't care about the displeasure of Her Royal Highness, she knew that Her Highness didn't like this kind of thing, but that he didn't like corrupt bureaucrats who said such things. But if it is a person who is recognized by Her Royal Highness, then such a compliment still hates her.

"I think that team ...... Or individuals, just a team of adventurers who just happened to be here. And their strength is much worse than ours, which is why they use detection magic at such a distance. If you don't mind, we can leave them alone, and soon they will be gone. Renier suggested.

Cornelia frowned and thought for a moment, then shook her head and said, "No, this relic is too important for the Empire. Therefore, no one is allowed to know the truth, and even the slightest clue cannot be revealed. So although I have no grudge against them, I have to let them sacrifice for the cause of the empire. ”

Cornelia's cold words did not make her knight and female officer show any surprised expressions. As Conelia's henchmen, they know exactly what kind of woman their allegiance to is.

Although she is more beautiful than most women, she is also stronger than most women. And cold.

The first princess of the empire who has been in the army for more than ten years. 'Valkyrie of the battlefield' made her not feel so much about life. In her eyes, the lives of enemies and soldiers are only for victory, for merit. For the good of the empire. Props that must be sacrificed.

The life of an adventurous team. will not be taken into account by her.

"Your Highness Cornelia, I don't think there's any need to do that. Once again, Renier objected to her master.

"For what, Renier. Does your life as an adventurer make your pity flare up again?" said Cornelia slowly.

"No, my mercy and mercy are not cheap enough to give alms to a few irrelevant strangers. Renier shook his head.

"Oh, what is that for?" said Cornelia, looking with interest at the pair of dark circles that were still unwavering.

"I just don't think it's necessary to fight unnecessarily with an unknown enemy. Renier said.

"Are you trying to say that my soldiers can't deal with a few adventurers?" said Conelia, who had heard another meaning from Renier's words.

Renier ignored the Empress who was angered by herself, and continued to explain to herself: "Yes, the elite troops of Her Royal Highness will naturally not lose to you as an adventurer, but casualties will definitely occur, after all, the opponent is a magician with at least six rings. In this mission, which is related to the fate of the Empire, we should try not to cause additional losses. ”

Cornelia felt that what she said was good, but her arrogant heart made her unable to let go of her reserve at the first time, so she had to pretend to be arrogant and said: "Then what do you say? First of all, I will definitely not let them go, and I will never let these unstable factors go." ”

Even the Valkyrie, who terrified the enemy on the battlefield and was feared by even her own people, was actually just a girl in her early twenties. Renier thought to himself.

Looking at the master she served, she said lightly: "We don't have to clash with them head-on, just persuade them to join our team, I think the treasures in the lich ruins will be divided into their part, and they will definitely be happy to join us." ”

"You want me to join forces with a mere adventurer, this is absolutely not possible, my sacred army will never allow such a person to join, even temporarily. Cornelia almost did not hesitate to reject the proposal.

"Your Highness, please think again. I don't think a magician of the Sixth or Seventh Ring can be a mere adventurer. Moreover, for the ruins of a great magician, our manpower is really not suitable, not even a mid-level magician, which will cause great inconvenience to us to explore the ruins. Renier spoke again.

Hearing this, Cornelia had nothing to say, it was true that because this operation was secretive, most of the magicians above the middle level were not recruited, after all, most of the magicians directly under the empire were from other countries.

For the same reason, most of the professions that came here this time were more magical, and a small number of other professions, so that the survivability was stronger.

After being silent for a while, he finally cared about the fate of the empire, more than his likes and dislikes, gritted his silver teeth and said unwillingly: "Okay, for the cause of the empire, I endured it." ”

"Your Highness is wise, you will never regret your decision today. Renier looked at Cornelia, who was finally relieved, and bent down in relief and said.

"I hope so. Cornelia said helplessly.

Then she said to Elizabeth, who was still kneeling there: "Elizabeth, you go and organize the troops, inform them, and we will camp here today." ”

"Yes, my lord, do as you command. Elizabeth, who had been listening, said respectfully. After listening to the conversation, Elizabeth understood the meaning of doing this, which was to wait for the adventuring team behind her.

In this way, almost at the same time that Kylelius and the others stopped, the troops they were trying to avoid also stopped. (To be continued......)
