This castle, which was formerly known as Tieling Fort and has now been renamed Longxing Fort by Moug, has finally left the two powerful and shrewd powers. Everyone in the restaurant cubicle breathed a long sigh of relief, and it was only at this time that they felt that they had been freed from the real pressure, and when they looked closely, they found that their backs were already covered with sweat.

Although he knew that there was still a fireplace wall between him and the enemy, although he knew that the other party should not be able to see him. However, the two boss-level bigwigs of the enemy just sat in their own close proximity to each other, always leaving everyone in a sense of absurd nothingness and surreality, and always felt that everything in front of them seemed too special and empty. Maybe in the next second, those two will suddenly grab their weapons and pounce on them with murderous energy.

In short, the two finally left, and in the face of the empty restaurant in front of them, everyone had a down-to-earth feeling of returning to reality.

"So, Master, shall we get to work?" Captain Rayson replied eagerly. He was not a reckless man, but the thought of his goddess lying in the dark and damp dungeon with excessive blood loss really made him unable to resist the boiling fire that burned deep in his heart.

"No, we'll start at 5 a.m." Lu Xi groaned for a moment, but shook his head firmly. He saw Captain Rayson's obvious lost expression, and of course he also saw the puzzled expressions of many friends, so he explained: "First, at 5 o'clock in the morning, although the sky began to light slightly, the night still did not disperse, which could cover the whereabouts of our companions on the mountain. Second. At this time, it is the time when people sleep the heaviest and most tired. If we act at this time, we may be able to kill a lot of people while the enemy is asleep. Third. It was now less than 12 o'clock in the morning, and the Marquis of the Blood Clan and the Orc General had already left. In more than 5 hours, they should have walked far enough that even if we were to fight with the sound of killing and wildfire, they would not attract attention. Even if we did, it would take us a few hours to get back, enough for us to rescue all of our companions and escape. ”

"That's true. The best time to fight a night raid is not at the deepest of night, but precisely the moment before dawn. Nicole added. Anyway, for her, everything her Lu Lu said was correct.

Everyone nodded knowingly. Captain Rayson still had a struggling face. But he didn't refute it, indicating that he still agreed with Lu Xi and Nicole's opinion.

"We've all been waiting for so long anyway, so let's wait another five hours." Lu Xi patted the captain on the shoulder and said, "This is also for Miss Rena, you have to be patient." Hey, that's a shame, if it's winter, I'd rather everyone wait until 6 o'clock. ”

"Ming, understood. The lower official lost his temper. The captain was a little embarrassed.

Speaking of which, Lu Xi summoned Anji again. "Inform Viscount Mura and Major Grimmar to take turns resting tomorrow morning at 5 o'clock in the morning, when my signal begins." Other than that. Observe the orc general named Moug and see how many men he has left. Then, touch the structure of the castle again. Where the soldiers and commanders of the enemy rested mainly, and. Where are the captives held? ”

If Anji was a human scout, Lu Xi would have given him a very heavy and dangerous job. Fortunately, the sleepless Star Spirit Assassin is not comparable to the hopeless human in terms of professionalism or hard work. She nodded without complaint, and then disappeared right under everyone's noses.

The Star Spirit Assassin who came and went without a trace also caused a brief commotion from friends who had never seen the world when he first appeared, but after seeing more of this kind of scene, they seemed to be able to accept such a storage very calmly. Anyway, in this world where the occult is prevalent, high-ranking spellcasters naturally have some very unreasonable means, and as federal soldiers, they are naturally used to it, even if they are surprised, they will not have a sense of nothingness that the three views have been subverted. At most, it is awe-inspiring because of the sense of mystery.

Of course, in a sense, the spellcasters of the Alliance of Knowledge, in a sense, actually rely on this sense of mystery to maintain their rule. The so-called superior person must make the bottom dick butt people can't guess it, this is the real truth.

Soon after Anji left, a group of figures came into the restaurant, which made everyone a little nervous, but soon everyone found out that these were not orcs, but a group of goblins, who should be the handymen in this castle. They actually came to pick up the remaining utensils and food scraps.

When the goblins left and locked the door to the restaurant, everyone was completely relieved and began to rest. Lu Xi also made it to the corner, and only then did he relax when he saw that almost everyone had fallen asleep. The one who slept the most undisciplined was the snow leopard Panarhis, who not only snored like thunder, but also began to wag his tail. In a sense, it is indeed a very happy creature, and it lives to the day when it is old with its unsuccessful hobbies in such a muddle, and it doesn't seem to care at all that its body is devoured and taken away.

Lu Xi did feel a little sleepy, but maybe he was going to act secretly in a few hours, but it was more of an indescribable excitement. Fortunately, with his current strength, coupled with the existence of thoughtless meditation and elemental affinity, and the frenzied training he had when he studied under the Aurucello, he didn't have to be like other ordinary magicians who couldn't cast spells without getting enough sleep. Even if he didn't sleep for one or two nights, he would be full of energy the next day, and he knew that whether he didn't dare to fight in fear, or he was so excited that he was eager to fight, it was a sign of immaturity as a spellcaster and a powerful person. If a person who has truly walked through the gate of the "Dao", at this time, his state of mind must be calm and calm.

Cultivation is still insufficient! The cultivation path of the powerful is indeed still a long way to go. Lu Xi laughed self-deprecatingly, and then heard Nicole's crisp voice in his ears.

"Why doesn't Lu Lu sleep yet?"

"Aren't you still sleeping?"

"Huh? It's not that Lu Lu doesn't know. He's an elf anyway, so it's not a big deal if he doesn't sleep for a few nights. Nicole groaned with a smile. Even in such a dimly lit cubicle, her smile was as sunny as ever: "And. Not only me, but Miss Lim didn't sleep either. ”

"Well, I saw it...... Anyway, Lim, there is a big battle tomorrow, so you can rest first. ”

"At the vigil."

"Oh......"

"Lu Xi and Nicole go to sleep."

In fact, Lim, who is sometimes more talented than elves, has doubted more than once that this three-nothing doll is 100% pure human blood. However, it is not the real yàn of Orucello. Or Lu Xi's own kryptonite dog eyes have proved this countless times. Could it be that as long as it is Sanwu Niang, it must be a hidden boss-level storage zài?

Well, it seems that the development of countless parallel worlds has proved this fact, and this can't be considered news at all.

"But ah, the three of us don't sleep and it doesn't affect our combat effectiveness, but Captain Rayson, why are you? Tomorrow's battle is dangerous, and it won't be good if you have an accident due to lack of rest. You don't think about what tomorrow will happen to Miss Rena like the god of war. What should I say in the first sentence? Lu Xi leaned against the wall, looked at the figure in the corner of the compartment, and asked in a low voice.

"Uh...... Guru. Captain Rayson's voice was a little cramped, and he even accidentally bit his tongue. After a long time, he whispered, "This, how do you know that I am not asleep?" ”

"People who are asleep and people who are not asleep breathe at different paces. The three of you who are still awake here know that you haven't slept. Lu Xi spread his hands. His gaze looked through the barely illuminated space and saw the embarrassment on Captain Rayson's face. But with a hint of fascination.

“…… Sure enough, before geniuses and mortals. Is there such an almost impassable distance? He muttered to himself in a voice that was almost only audible to him.

"Captain, what did you just say?"

"No, no, no...... Master, uh, in fact, I can't sleep, just think of Miss Rena, uh, and everyone who is still lying in a dark and damp cell, suffering from hunger, cold, and pain. ”

"Well, we suffer more than they do. They lie in their cells, not knowing what the future holds, but in a sense, they just calmly face their fate after that. And here we are, Twenty and a fat cat huddled in such a crowded secret room, barely resting, thinking about tomorrow to be someone else's savior. At this time, the lives and futures of the more than 100 Federation comrades-in-arms in this castle, and of course, the fate of the lover of your dreams, are actually in our hands, Captain, don't you feel the pressure? ”

"This, this...... Naturally, there is. Captain Rayson didn't understand what Lu Xi meant by these words.

"So, when we are stressed, the happiness index of stressed people is lower. We're supposed to be on the more painful side, Captain, aren't we? ”

"Uh...... You said...... That's right. It sounded plausible, but Captain Rayson always felt that something was wrong.

"Well, since you can't sleep, let's talk. Captain Rayson, we've known each other for a while, but we haven't really introduced ourselves properly. As for me, well, I'm a celebrity now, so there's no need to do anything more, just talk about yourself first. ”

"Ah...... Well, uh, okay, there's nothing too interesting about my life. If you don't like it, I'll tell you about it......"

Just as Lu Xi imagined, Captain Rayson was not born into a family of gatekeepers or magicians, but the second son of a farmer, a typical middle-class birth. Traditionally, the eldest brother would inherit the family business, while the second son might have to find another way to survive as an adult, but Captain Rayson had a little talent for magic, and then as a child he met a lone traveling mage and became the other's disciple and heir.

The traveling mage was very old when he took him in, having died when the captain was 12 years old, leaving him with an inheritance just enough to pay for the Academy's tuition. So, his life for the next few years was confirmed in this way.

"I always thought I was a genius because the peers around me were not as good as me, but when I really walked out of the small mountain village where I grew up, I realized that my former self was simply a frog at the bottom of a well. Not to mention the scholarship, I didn't even get into the Central Academy of Magic, my first choice, so I could only go to the Red Maple Castle Demon Dao Academy as my second choice. However, there I met Miss Rena, well, she was the first student of the Third Realm. ”

"Then, you found the greatest light in life, right?" Lu Xi couldn't help laughing: "It's really a familiar story, but it's a very true story." I really didn't expect that you and that Miss Rena would be childhood sweethearts, right? ”

"Well, not at all, she's the high-profile honor student, and the daughter of the Millster family, one of the brightest names in the academy. And I'm actually just a civilian-born, ordinary senior. ”

"Uh-huh, the rhythm of the counterattack goddess, I said that I have completely ignited."

"So, in the life of the academy, we don't have much intersection, so naturally we can't talk about any childhood sweethearts."

“…… Tsk, you just expressed a little interest and you came here like this, it's too much to give, Captain. ”

"Hehe, no way, I'm such a person! Very self-aware, Master, not everyone is a genius like you, and not everyone has the courage to change and overcome their limitations. Captain Rayson smiled bitterly: "However, until I graduated, I entered the floating fleet and slowly rose through the ranks." It wasn't until the third year that he discovered that the newly promoted officer who came to report on the battleship he served on turned out to be Miss Rena, who was as glamorous and beautiful as a goddess in the academy. It wasn't until that time that the longing in the academy was converted into a real crush. At that time, for the first time, I had the idea of fighting bravely to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions, because I knew that only in this way could I, an ordinary person born in a commoner, have the possibility of being with the eldest lady of the Millster family. ”

“…… Well, it's boring, it's mundane, but it's also a very inspirational story. Lu Xi smiled: "Even if it's the Dawn Knight Parn, isn't it the youngest son of a declining knight family?" He was an adventurer like a tomb robber, and a mercenary like a wild dog of war, but his name is still recorded in history today, even after thousands of years. Think about it again, the so-called gate valve families of the Federation are just ignorant nouveau riche compared to the super gate valves in Oakland across the era. But the result? Isn't the Emperor Knous, who led the Dawn Alliance to win the war and founded the Holy Spring Dynasty, the second son of a second-rate lord's family? Besides, look at the Nords, the barbarian Richard is a horse bandit, Arthur? Pendragon was a caravan bodyguard, and Sworddradont was a mercenary and did a lot of things as a traitor. Compared to them, Captain Rayson, your starting point is much higher! ”

"Anyway, people don't think about what their birth is, what their past is, they should think about what they want to do and what they will do in the future, so it's okay." Lu Xi patted the captain on the shoulder vigorously: "Take care of you, Sao Nian, when the goddess succeeds in counterattacking, remember to inform me." ”

Captain Rayson looked at Lu Xi blankly, and after a long while, he finally smiled, which was the heartiest smile Lu Xi had since he met him: "Alas, it's a shame." It stands to reason that I should be a few years older than you, Master, right? But not only is there a cloud of strength separated by mud, but even my mind is much more naïve, and I want you to enlighten me. ”

"I'm not enlightening you, I'm just asking you to tell me something unhappy to make me happy. Now, Master Belencaster said that he was very happy, so Captain, you should also have a good rest. That's an order. As for Nicole and Lim, if you really can't sleep, pray that in a few hours it will be stormy and cloudy. (To be continued......)

PS: On the last day of the New Year, whether you are happy, if it's a pity, please take out the last festival ah no, the last ticket
