Seeing that Qi Lang was about to sink deeper and deeper into those troubles, Jira thoughtfully changed the topic.

"Well, it's no surprise that the variables in the south have happened. Jenny cleansed the city of Hayes from all hostile forces and succeeded in ascending to the throne last Friday. She went on a killing spree, and many well-known generals were beheaded. The infamous Otto Empire is so badly damaged that it may not be able to attack from all sides in a year or two. ”

"And what about Absion?" Qi Lang hoped in his heart that the arrogant villain would not be spared either.

"He must have been with Jenny's gang for a long time. Jira also showed a disappointed expression, "Princess Hannah was the first to stand up and declare that she was willing to support her sister to become the seventh king of the Otto Empire, and her attitude certainly represented her husband Absion. ”

"Looks like you were just comforting me. Qi Lang turned his head to look at Jira, "If that war maniac in Absion hadn't been purged, that evil empire wouldn't have been a big hit at all. Tell me, how soon do you expect her to attack?"

"I'm just expressing a good wish. Jira smiled awkwardly: "Three months, pretty much that's it." I guess Jenny's first target should be the Mingyu Kingdom, after all, King Mihuan successfully received the Rangers, and Jenny can easily tell that he has done something here. ”

"I thought her number one target should be our ......," Qi Lang still squinted at Jira.

Jira surrendered: "Well, you're right, her first target is undoubtedly us. We killed her son, and her brother. How could Sister Jenny, who is full of feelings, let us go. I just think you're too upset for a while......"

"It's a real headache. Gulf, who had finally finished the meal, happened to kill at this time and sat down beside Qi Lang. "A girl is annoying enough, like Lucy. What's more, you provoke two at once. If I were you, I would definitely send Joanna or Mi Rong to the front line, leaving only one to communicate with each other, and then have a showdown with the other when the wood is settled. He reached out and poked Qi Lang's arm, squeezed his eyes and said, "Which one are you going to take, have you decided?"

"It's not a good time to talk about this, okay, Gurf?" Qi Lang had an even bigger headache.

Gurff, who couldn't see the situation clearly, continued the topic: "Don't tell me. You're trying to rewrite the rules of monogamy, you damn thing. You've heard it, the soldiers are so envious that they even invented a new word for you, called 'Qi Ren's Blessing', which sounds quite natural, as if such an idiom existed in this world. ”

"Stop, okay?" Qi Lang glanced at Lucy who was walking over from the corner of his eye, and said in a threatening tone. "Otherwise, I'd like to talk about what you said about Jenny's figure that night. ”

"You bastard......" Gulf scolded, immediately zipping his thin lips up.

Next, it was nothing more than Gila's military analysis and debriefing, which sounded boring to Gulf. But I had to participate in two sentences in a similar way. However, Gulf was also surprised to hear that the town of Sunset on the southern border seemed to be engaged in some kind of trade with the troops of the Otto Empire. He originally thought that the mighty Wang Shi would sweep through the entire Zonghao Republic in half a year without encountering any obstacles. But now, it seems, things are starting to get complicated again.

And think of the potential possibility of an attack on the side of the Otto Empire. Qi Lang was still deeply worried about one person - the Frost in the iron mask!

Qi Lang always felt that he was his father, although he did not ask Aunt Dong for confirmation of this matter. But his stature and familiar voice were almost certain. He had already sworn allegiance to Jenny at that time, and it was foreseeable that Frost would be on the battlefield when the battle began. What a cruel thing it would be to meet your father as a mortal enemy!

By the time Joanna and Milon slowly entered the dining room with little Jira, most of the remaining food had been wiped out by the gluttonous Sergeant Clettu. Thanks to Lucy's reservation of a few portions in advance, the two hard-working teachers were not starved. Don't look at Little Jila's performance in class is not ideal, but he is not punished in any way, Joanna and Mirong even add an extra piece of meat to his steamed bun each. Seeing that the little guy had changed back to his happy appearance in a blink of an eye, Qi Lang really felt that he had just done something completely redundant.

Towards evening, Shokin finally returned.

This time she did not return in vain, because the old Henry's letter contained something new: more than four months ago, the Fifteenth War Regiment of the Whirling Frontier had picked up three or five survivors in the lower reaches of the Valse River, all of whom were attachés who had accompanied Marcus on his expedition to the Emerald Principality. Since the Fifteenth Warband had been in a tug-of-war with the Dragon Legion, it was not until the last month or two that the fighting had eased up and it was only time to treat the wounded soldiers, who were almost inhuman, and by the time the news reached the castle of Asaph, it was already three months late.

According to the survivors, they were indeed ambushed, a mob of nearly five or six thousand people, and most of the soldiers were killed in battle, but Marcus and they seemed to have been captured. And most noteworthily, there was a terrible thing that happened at that time - Felix came back to life! It was Felix who suddenly restrained Prince Marcus, and Maggie and Alfred had to lay down their weapons.

However, since the gang of thugs only detained the relevant personnel and then hid them, and did not make any demands, Marcus and their fate are still uncertain, but at least they still have a chance to survive, which is enough to make Qi Lang feel a little relieved.

Most of the five or six survivors were old acquaintances of the 27th War Regiment of the Spiral Army, including Sean and Buñian, and the most seriously injured among them was Ruth, who hoped that the Legion would send reinforcements.

Fortunately, after nearly a month of treatment in Messburg, Ruth finally recovered, and is currently rushing back to Lujia Town on the Dragon Monster, and it is estimated that he will arrive in Lujia Town in two days.

There is no doubt that the elder Henry was quite right in his previous inference. This attack was carried out by the sinister Credon. Thinking back to the situation at that time, Dodim was so careless, how could he believe Felix's change of mind so easily?And he actually came back to life, it was really unthinkable, everyone present could see it clearly, Frost's sword at that time hit Felix's heart, he had no reason to survive, even the skilled Aiden announced his death, unless...... He literally gave his heart to the devil for safekeeping!

Old Henry did not mention in the letter whether Zhu Lai and Dodim were safe, and those two were the ones that Qi Lang was most concerned about. Now, all he wanted was for the Vortex to gather all their forces and dig them out, and if possible, to uproot those Credons, lest they once again stretch out their evil tentacles in the darkness and turn the already turbulent world into a devil's paradise instigated by hatred.

Three days later, when Lu Si finally returned to Lujia Town on the Dragon Monster, Qi Lang could barely recognize him. He had lost a lot of weight, almost skinny, with an extra scar on his face, and the relaxed and slightly sly smile of the past was difficult to show accurately, and the center of his throat was left with an arrow wound, making him even speak with a kind of panting effect. Fortunately, he is still alive and can still stand upright in front of Qi Lang.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Commander, that I didn't complete the task you gave me. ”

"Don't say that, Ruth. Qi Lang took his shoulders and helped him sit on the chair, "That's not your responsibility, it's an accident, an accident that none of us expected." ”

Ruth fidgeted and panned in his chair: "I tried my best, we all tried our best. But there are too many of them, and there are at least a thousand martial arts level masters, and we can't beat them. ”

"I know. Qi Lang nodded, "I've been taught." Those Credons didn't know that there was any special method that could inexplicably improve their combat effectiveness. What's more, Felix also stabbed you in the back. ”

Lu Si gritted his teeth hatefully: "I don't know why the Whirling Frontier Army has a rule of keeping corpses, if they threw that insidious guy aside at that time, at least they wouldn't have lost so much." ”

"That's a glorious tradition!" Gulf raised his voice to express his displeasure, but thinking that Ruth's tragic situation quickly aroused his sympathy, he added: "It's better to check it out next time to see if the corpses are really dead." If a corpse jumped up in the middle of the night and asked me for food, I would have been terrified. ”

Gulf's nonsense was once again ignored by Qi Lang. "How were Mr. Zhulai and Major Dodim then?" he asked, a little nervously, "...... Are there any injuries?"

Ruth shook his head: "We happened to have reached the Broken Rainbow Bridge, and not long after the battle began, I fell into the Valse River, lost consciousness, and couldn't see anything. ”

Jira handed Ruth a bowl of tea beside him, "Can you tell me what they look like?"

Ruth took a deep breath with palpitations: "They have all kinds of people. There are blacks, there are whites, there are brown-skinned ...... They were an army of demons that seemed to emerge out of hell out of nowhere. ”

Jira turned her head to look at Qi Lang: "They are probably the escaped slaves you mentioned, right?" (to be continued......)
