Chapter 218: The Beginning of Chaos

"Go on, what does this regiment represent?"

The other party's eyes became wandering, and even when he said the name, Sean could see the state of [Fear!] on the top of the girl's head.

"Is it related to the Old Gods? Followers of the Old Gods are not active in the northern part of the Empire. Sean said suddenly.

The sudden appearance of the girl in front of me was very similar to the situation that could be seen everywhere in Tacoma City at that time, and this also woke me up...... The followers of the ancient gods are not necessarily operating only in the Basharan Empire, but also in other countries, and it is difficult to completely kill them without effective countermeasures.

Sean used the spell of [Lucid~] on Dusty's shoulder, and the state of the opponent's [Fear!] disappeared in an instant.

He raised his head and looked at himself with a very complicated look.

But more than that, hatred, if she is given enough food to replenish her strength now, Sean believes that this girl will die with him without hesitation.

"You liar, this thing doesn't come from our companions, you want to blame us so that you can put us to death in front of your beloved people?"

Not to mention that Sean really didn't think of this solution.

The Oro region has always been feared and hated by the followers of the ancient gods because of their previous relationships, and if they are dealt with under the pretext of participating in the activities of the followers of the ancient gods, they may be able to gain a wave of favorability and save the people who lost their favor before.

"You've reminded me of a way, but it's easy for me to deal with you. There is no need to behave at all in any popular way. On the contrary, when you see your companion's font, you can pretend not to believe it, which is an eye-opener for me. Sean sneered and put away the thick skin paper in his hand, if the other party didn't want to say it, he could only wait for Frelia to send someone over, or find a wizard in Oro City who had relevant knowledge.

"That's the Borg. ”

Just as she was about to leave, the girl who heard the latter hair finally spoke.

"Borg?"

Looking at the other party's face under the firelight, it was already dirty.

Eating and drinking Lazar was in this small cell, and to tell the truth, if it weren't for the other party's voice being too quiet, Sean wouldn't even want to walk in.

The smell is too strong, too bad!

"To be specific, there is also whether the cultists you mentioned just now are followers of the ancient gods. Sean's question instead attracted the dissatisfaction of the other party, and he deliberately shut up and did not speak.

"It doesn't matter if you don't say it, I already know that you want to ask the Borg people for something against me...... The Borgs are ready to attack in the north, but it is difficult to defeat the Basharan Empire, which has been holding grit for hundreds of years, from the outside, so they need to respond internally. I guessed you correctly, but given the Borg's distrust of us as a whole, they need you to be honest, right?"

Sean looked at each other, and the clues he got in the past few days had put everything together.

Originally, I thought it was just a matter of the struggle between the two empires and internal contradictions, but I didn't expect that the booklet I received today actually involved the ancient gods, so I had to go deeper.

Even now Sean feels a deep sense of powerlessness in the face of that kind of existence...... I can hardly think of any ability that can deal with the ancient gods, even if the power of the [Eye of Geheros] is at most to fight a few believers, if the ancient gods really appear, I am afraid that they will not be able to face that kind of existence except for the coming of Geheros himself!

"So the Borg need you to do something, preferably to take out the big nobles of a region, so that they can completely stand on the battlefield and participate in it. However, due to the dispersion of your forces, it is difficult to form effective means against the local nobles, so you have come all the way to my city...... Oro was founded and suffered heavy losses in the last event, and you think this is the city that is most likely to revolt. ”

Sean told the rebels' plan as it was, and based on the clues of the past few days, this should be correct.

"But ......"

"I didn't expect you to get your hands on the power of the Old Gods, it's not something that humans can touch at all, bringing them with you will only bring endless disasters!

"I didn't even know there were Ancients cultists, they were Borgs!

Sean's words seemed to infuriate the girl in front of her, and she roared in a hoarse voice.

"So what is this. He pointed to the thick sheet of paper in his hand.

"I don't know, they call it a lovkra pendant, something that makes the body stronger. I only heard someone mention in a meeting that the Borg people were looking for this kind of thing, and didn't know what it had to do with the Old Gods. ”

There is no lying on her head, she should be telling the truth.

It is estimated that even she doesn't know why the followers of the ancient gods have mixed into the revolutionary army...... And the believer is also a companion who comes with him.

"What are they looking for these things for?"

The other party didn't speak again, just looked at himself viciously.

"There's a lot they're looking for, but I'm not going to tell you any of them!"

"Ah~"

Sean pinched the other party's face hard, and for a moment he really had murderous intent.

Take a deep breath~

"It's okay, if you don't say it, I'll find out sooner or later. It's just that you haven't figured it out yet, if the Borg really came with the idea of finding an artifact of the ancient gods, you are just one of his sacrifices, victory? ”

Sean let go of the other party, and this time walked directly to the door of the cell.

"Chaos will begin and you will all end up dying at the hands of those you have oppressed...... Aren't you very capable? Then find it yourself, I heard that what the Borg people want most is a silver key that will sparkle in the moonlight, and if you find it, you will know everything. ”

Dusty's contemptuous laughter in the cell.

"Yes. Then let's make a bet, let's bet that it will be the Imperial Army or you who will survive to the end...... Take good care of her and give her a clean place, I don't want to die like that. He said to the soldier at the door at the same time in the cell.

"Yes, Lord Count. ”

He left the cell with a heavy face......

..................

And at this time, somewhere in the north of the Basharan Empire, all the soldiers on the tall border walls were ready.

It's very windy today, and it looks like it's almost winter.

This time of year is a time when all cities are stockpiling food for the winter, but now they have to face even greater threats.

"How many of them are there?" said a general, standing at the top of the wall, looking out at the darkness in the distance......

"Countless!!"

The sound of artillery fire sounded from afar.

"Watch for secrecy!"

There was a loud shout among the soldiers......
