Chapter Twenty-Six: Have You Ever Heard of Nirvana?

"Oh, do you think I'm in a pretty bad situation, too? Alyssa looked at Cross with interest.

"Yes. Cross didn't dare to say too much, the woman in front of her was different from ordinary people, and it was easy to see through too simple inducing words.

"Interesting, I'd love to hear your analysis now. ”

Alyssa held her chin up, like a child waiting for an adult to tell a story.

Her reaction also deviated from Cross's original expectations. Normal people are generally panicked when they hear that they are in a bad situation, and they are anxious to get help, but the lovely Lisa looks like she doesn't care, and all she cares about seems to be the analysis that Cross is about to say.

This woman is really not simple. Cross sighed again. However, being able to arouse the interest of the other party can be regarded as achieving the goal.

"Now the Klein Realm is in turmoil, Joey's usurpation, Reinhardt's ambitions, and the invasion of the Kingdom of Seajarda. In the midst of such chaos, isn't the situation of Ximu Town not bad?"

"So, what do you think I can do to get Ximu Town through this chaotic situation?"

"If you just want to protect yourself, then you have absolutely no problem with your ability. ”

Hearing this, Alyssa's eyes lit up, she shook her hair, and said, "Interesting! What if I don't just want to protect myself?"

"You have to find allies?"

"Ally, I'm not going to be with the usurper Joey. I've considered forming an alliance with Reinhardt, but my strength can't get into that guy's eyes at all. ”

"Reinhardt is really outstanding, but he was in too much of a hurry to act without being fully prepared, he now has Joey in front of him, and Seatta in the back, and his situation is even more difficult, and more importantly, that rumor about me can't get him more support, his failure, won't be too far away. ”

Alyssa fully agrees with Cross's analysis," he continued. ”

Cross raised a chess piece, then dropped it dryly, "Alyssa, your only ally is me. ”

Alyssa glanced at the board, she had long thought about it, it was a move that even beginners wouldn't use. Because, that move is not only meaningless, but also gives away a chess piece in vain.

Alyssa mercilessly ate one of Cross's pawns and smiled, "I wouldn't choose an ally who killed himself. ”

Cross calmly took a wonderful step, "Have you ever heard of Nirvana?"

Alyssa was taken aback when she saw this, although Alyssa still took the initiative now, but the greedy move just now caused a hole in her defense line, such a loophole, the master will not let go, let alone Cross, who has extraordinary chess strength. After a few dozen steps, Alyssa's advantage will disappear completely, and the balance of victory will tilt in Cross's favor.

"Did you deliberately leak a flaw in the first place?" asked Alyssa.

Cross didn't answer.

"Unexpectedly, Lord Cross, who is rumored to be able to bring hope to Klein Collar, is also a despicable villain. Alyssa was a little unconvinced by such a failure.

"In troubled times, the people who survive are heroes. ”

"Your Excellency Cross, you are really interesting, and I am convinced if I lose to you. ”

"You're also very special, and I don't want to be a rival to you. ”

"I'll just take you as a compliment, but since you want to form an alliance, at least reciprocal, I'm the lord of Creek Town, what are you? Don't tell me that you're the adopted son of the late Earl Thor Crane. Alyssa spoke with a playful smile.

"I am the lord of Copperhill. ”

"Oh!?"

"As a sign of my sincerity, I brought some armor and weapons. Close decided to take advantage of Alyssa's surprise and continue to show his chips.

Alyssa's expression instantly became serious, she folded her hands in front of her chest, leaned back in her chair, she was thinking.

"You shouldn't just be aligning with me, right?"

"I can't hide it from you, I hope I can get some help. ”

"What do you want?"

"I need a carriage first. ”

"Where are you going?"

"Copper Mountain Town. ”

"It turns out that Your Excellency is going back to the fiefdom, what about Your Excellency's original means of transportation?"

"We went down from land and water by boat and had some accidents while in Blackwater and the boat broke down. Now you can only go back by land. ”

"So that's the case, I'm afraid the carriage won't be able to meet your requirements. Alyssa said as she played with her hair. "It's better to ride a horse directly, it will be much more convenient to ride a horse, and in terms of speed, the carriage is not as fast as riding a horse directly, Your Excellency should know this better than me. ”

Of course, Cross understands that riding a horse is faster than making a carriage, but not everyone can ride a horse, and one of them can't ride a horse, and that person is Gawain. However, at this time, it may not be possible to continue to take care of Gawain.

"Yes, I haven't traveled overland to Copperhill, so it's certainly not a good way to walk. ”

"From here to Tongshan Town, if you go from the land, the carriage will definitely not work, and the rough mountain road will stop the carriage from moving forward. ”

"I see. ”

"Your Excellency, let's choose to ride a horse. ”

"Thank you for the advice, Alyssa. Then I need four horses now. ”

"No problem. In addition to this need, you must have other needs, right?"

"I'd like to inquire about witches. ”

Alyssa's right hand, which was playing with her hair, suddenly stopped, and her expression distorted for a moment.

"Lord Cross, you can't talk nonsense, if there were witches in my town, it would have become hell a long time ago. ”

The other party showed such an expression and tone of voice, Close's purpose was achieved, what he really wanted to find out was actually the alchemist, the reason why he wanted to talk about the witch first was to make Alyssa have a certain psychological expectation of the next conversation, when she had such a psychological expectation, when Cross asked the alchemist again, Alyssa was likely to say something close to the truth.

"Lady Alyssa, don't be too nervous, I've just heard some rumors from Creekwood. ”

"How can the rumors be believed. ”

"Yes. So, is there any news about witches near Creek Town?"

"Your Excellency, whether it is a witch or a wizard, or a mage, these things that do not exist at all, how can I get relevant news, and besides, in the Quesman Empire, these are taboo, Your Excellency always asks these questions, aren't you afraid?"
