CH.70 This shouldn't be a FLAG, right?
The slender tentacles are constantly waving rapidly, vigilantly probing their surroundings and fleeing if they sense danger.
No matter how big they are, cockroaches are still cockroaches.
Insects with only a simple nervous system and no sentient minds are unable to think, they only rely on the most basic instinctive actions.
The organic matter that can be obtained is the food that is ingested, and the danger that can threaten life needs to be avoided.
Without intelligence, without planning, but with the most basic physical abilities, these giant monsters are capable of bringing everyone who sees them to the brink of collapse.
"It's nice to have no conductors. ”
“...... What do you say?"
While cleaning up the remaining cockroaches, Xiu couldn't help but whisper to himself, but Feng Kan heard it clearly.
“...... No, there is a ...... of those who point and wave."
Stunned for a moment, Xiu repeated what he had just said word by word, and he also understood the meaning of his words.
All they had to deal with was the Crimson Moon and the mutated cockroaches, but the person who was the main messenger did not appear, to be specific, the Blood Feast that was hiding in the shadows and manipulating the development of the situation did not come out first, and even the Sword of Judgment that was active on the battlefield before was gone.
Whether it's the Crimson Moon or those mutated cockroaches, it's like ......
Yes, it's like an outcast to attract their attention.
No, not like it, but at all.
"Cunning fellow. ”
According to Xiu, the person behind the trouble at Bernardo this time is still the woman named "Tina" who is lurking in Volcan.
This woman is not only smart but also alert. Maybe you have already smelled something wrong, right?
No, maybe after the sonic attack, when Count Carridos came to negotiate, he had already anticipated what would happen next?
In a word. The fact that none of the Sword of Judgment has disappeared is a good illustration.
Until the end, the woman did not abandon these experimental materials, maybe there was a reason not to abandon them, or maybe ......
"Did you escape?"
"No, that's not right! according to the style of the Blood Feast, she didn't run away, but ......"
There is no use value here.
Giving up things that have no use value without hesitation is the policy of the Blood Feast.
"Damn it!"
Now everything is clear. That woman used the Crimson Moon to hold them back, and since she didn't even hesitate to give up the Crimson Moon that hadn't yet taken shape, it meant that there was a more important goal in her heart.
Of course. For others, the level of danger is even more severe.
The remaining giant cockroaches were no longer able to stumble, and it was only a matter of time before Bernardo's army of ordinary people completely wiped them out, so it didn't matter if they were left alone.
Sure enough, the whereabouts of the guys at the Blood Feast were the most pressing issue.
Feng Kan immediately opened the control board and operated the Emperor Ghost series of satellites to conduct a detailed search on the Fleet wasteland.
Searching for a few people in the endless wasteland is not much different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
However, there is a difference with the needle in the sea. The humans that need to be sought are living beings. Ectothermic animals to be exact.
The far-infrared detectors of the Ghost series satellites are useful in this case.
"Found it!"
Exploring the vast Great Wasteland is an almost impossible task for ordinary people, but it is a piece of cake for the Ghost Emperor series satellites, five Ghost Empire series satellites put the entire Great Wasteland within the detection range, and locked on to the correct target after just a dozen seconds.
"The way they're going is ...... Bernardo!"
In the projected image, a dozen or so reddish figures were rapidly advancing towards the mountains to the northeast, and with a little attention, it was not difficult to recognize that the vast majority of figures were dressed in the same style of the coat worn by the Sword of Judgment.
"Oh no! Could it be that their real purpose is in Bernardo?"
I remember that the three old immortals of the Blood Banquet once mentioned that the entire battlefield was actually an altar designed by them, and those who died on the battlefield were their sacrifices.
If these sacrifices were made to bring the Crimson Moon back to life. Then they shouldn't have given it up so easily.
And Xiu once mentioned that Kashana, the prince of the Duchy of Bernardo, seems to be instigated by those guys. An attempt is being made to resurrect a man who has been dead for many years......
“...... Really, can you give people a little breather? ”
Feng Kan was really speechless, since he came to the Great Wild Wasteland, unexpected situations appeared one after another, and every time he thought that the matter was over, a new situation immediately appeared.
I'm exhausted.
“...... I said, can you spare me? After defeating a strong enemy, a stronger enemy will appear immediately or something, and it would be good to stay in the second dimension!"
But complaining is complaining, and you still have to do what you have to do.
If we don't get rid of the root of the blood feast buried in Bernardo, who knows what will happen next.
Bang!
The Crimson Moon could no longer withstand the onslaught of Britain, and exploded into countless pieces with a loud bang.
...............................................................................................................
"Why don't you go and say hello to that one?"
When he was about to leave, looking at Count Carridos, who was commanding the Bernardo soldiers to clean up the battlefield, Feng Kan finally couldn't help but say to Xiu, to be honest, it was the first time he had encountered such a thing as father and son turning against each other, although he was a little nosy, but he always felt a little sad.
"No, I don't have anything to do with that man anymore. ”
Glancing in the direction where Count Caridos was, Xiu said coldly, and after finishing speaking, he flew in the direction of the target without looking back.
Since meeting with Count Carridos, unless necessary. Xiu never took the initiative to say a word to the other party.
Feng Kan glanced at Britain on the side, but Britain just shrugged his shoulders at him and flew out with Xiu.
Speaking of which, Britain's clothes are almost the same as Doraemon's four-dimensional pocket in Feng Kan's eyes. Supposedly the Crimson Moon fragments were also extremely dangerous, but the creature had all of them in his clothes.
Forget it, anyway, Feng Kan and the others have given up on exploring the body structure of that guy and the fire spirit, two guys who are completely beyond common sense.
But......
"Repair, hey, I said ......"
After catching up with the two, Feng Kan accosted Xiu again.
Anyway, this idle matter has already been managed, and some of them know things if they don't say it. There will be a pimple left in the heart.
"What's the matter? Now think more about what to do when we catch up with those guys, right?"
Xiu frowned a little dissatisfied.
"Ah, on this, when the time comes, Britain will use his mobile turrets to pin down those swords of judgment. You and I won't just take the opportunity to control the woman who took the lead, right?"
I answered without even thinking about it.
Although those Swords of Judgment have some strange abilities, Feng Kan, who once captured two Swords of Judgment, knows that most of these guys are some puppets with no autonomy, as long as the guy who takes the lead is controlled. There wasn't much of a threat.
Just get the hang of it. Most of the things in the world are actually quite simple.
"Having said that, I actually talked a lot about Hardy (the dragon knight who led the team) when I was in Gadtevaz. ”
"yes, so what?"
Xiu was still coldly agreeing, and it seemed that the topic of the Count of Caridos made him very unhappy.
"Hardy once told me that the Count of Caridos...... I'm still alone. ”
“......”
Because of the surprise?
Xiu was visibly stunned for a moment.
“...... What do you want to tell me?"
"You told me before, right? That man is a cold-blooded guy who can even sacrifice his wife and children for the glory of his family. ”
"So what?"
"Isn't that weird?"
“......”
Xiu was silent, and Feng Kan could clearly feel his wavering.
"After all these years, why does he still live alone?"
That's it.
If Count Carridos is really a guy who can abandon his wife and children for the sake of the family. Then it is impossible not to consider the question of their own heirs.
When he was in his own territory, because he was a poor nobleman. So after marrying Xiu's mother, Count Caridos did not marry other women, and when he was in the public capital, he was very busy with work (as for what he was busy with, I think everyone knows it), and even the things with his wife and children were very short, so there was no fancy in the relationship between men and women.
But what about after that?
Holding great power, above 10,000 people under the veritable name of Bernardo Duke, all hostile guys are also killing of killing, exile of exile, there should be no shortage of women around such a man, right?
"For all these years, that man has been living alone. According to Hardy, he lives like an ascetic monk, and don't you think it's strange?"
“......”
If Count Calidos' actions were based on the glory of the family, then who else could he call a "family" other than Xiu?
Count Calidos was originally only the heir to a poor aristocrat on the remote frontier, and his family was very small in number, and only one person was left who could be called a direct family.
Why is this so?
What was the driving force behind Count Carridos to continue living like this?
It's a puzzling contradiction.
"I mean, when this is over, how about having a good talk with Count Calidos?"
“......”
Xiu didn't answer, just turned his head and glared at him fiercely.
"Well~~ whatever you want. ”
Feng Kan shrugged his shoulders indifferently, he said everything that should be said, as for what the Cultivator should do...... That's his own business.
It's a lot more comfortable to say everything you want to say at once.
But calm down and think about it......
"Ah...... I hope I didn't set up any strange FLAG......"
"Finally noticed?" Britannia.
