The sky is finally starting to brighten up completely.

In the deep mountains and forests, Sean and Cecilia are trekking hard, especially Sean's back and the still unconscious Shefanio, which naturally greatly delays the progress of the two.

Sean's situation was better, but Cecilia was a little sluggish. In terms of the physique of a magician, it was already very difficult to be able to walk with Sean for a whole night. But even so, Cecilia did not ask to stop and rest, but continued to insist silently, she knew very well what was the most dangerous thing for them now, and if they could not get through this dangerous period, then all their efforts would be in vain.

"Take a break." After walking some distance further, the terrain of the mountain forest calmed down a little, and Sean finally spoke.

Cecilia didn't speak, but nodded slightly, and sat down on the spot.

Sean glanced at Shephaño, she still looked unconscious, but other than that, all her vital signs were completely normal, which made Sean feel a lot more relieved. He didn't expect that the previous battle with Edward in the royal capital would cause such a burden on Shefanio's body that his mental state was completely asleep, but in general, as long as she was fine, then all other problems were minor.

"Where are we now?" Cecilia took the kettle handed by Sean, took a small sip, and moistened her throat a little before asking.

"According to the previous roadmap. We should now be on our way to the meeting point. Sean was a little unsure of the location, but at least the direction was correct, "If there are no surprises." We should be arriving at the Green Springs River in three days. ”

"Green Springs River." Cecilia thought for a moment before remembering the exact location of this place, "This place should still be in the heart of the Finlistine family, right?" And if we let them know that we have arrived here, then the pursuit and encirclement network behind will probably be more intense. ”

"Not for sure, but inevitablely." Sean sighed helplessly, "This time the Fenlistine family is definitely playing for real, we are all underestimating our enemies too much." I hope that William and Hela's two guys can be reliable, otherwise we may not even be able to break through the Green Spring River. ”

"I still believe in William." Cecilia chuckled.

"Oh?" Sean raised an eyebrow, "Why just William?" What about Hela? ”

"It's not yet time for Cheng Dù to give her life to her." Cecilia looked at Sean. Then he said with a serious face, "I really can't understand why you trust her so much." …… Although her strategy is indeed very powerful, she always feels a little strange. Why do you think she's really going to give you advice? ”

"Because I trust her." Sean looked at Cecilia a little strangely. "Have you ever heard a phrase? Since I decided to let her and William be in charge of the military coordination of our entire territory, then I will not doubt her, and she does have this ability, which is not under William's strength at all. ”

"So, why do you trust her so much and think she won't betray?" Cecilia spoke.

Sean thought for a moment. I found that there was really no way to explain this problem to Cecilia. He knew that Hela could be trusted, and he knew that Sein was a dangerous man. And this is not only due to their personality and experience, but also from the role of the True Eye. In other words, what Sean believes is actually what he "saw with his own eyes", not what he has seen in forums and games in the past.

"Because I can see their good intentions and bad intentions." After thinking about it, Sean still spoke, "There is already too much malice in this world, and if we choose to trust others, then maybe we will also reap a lot of kindness." ”

"I still don't understand." Cecilia shook her head.

Sean patted Cecilia on the head and smiled, "I can't learn the royal family's mind control technique, the only thing I can do is treat them all as friends, so I'm willing to trust my friends." It's like you're willing to trust William and dare to put your life in his hands......"

"That's different, after all, we've been fighting together for so long."

"For me, it's all the same." Sean smiled, "No one is full of malice from the beginning, and the so-called malice is just a difference in position. But there are many times when you don't get into a fight with the other person, then they will never know where your bottom line is. …… However, once there is a conflict, a contradiction, or even an evolution that requires the use of force to solve the problem, then malice also arises. ”

Cecilia nodded as if she didn't understand, there was a big gap between what Sean said and what she had learned before in the Duchy of Rumbell, which gave Cecilia the illusion that her worldview was broken. But his intuition was to tell her that although what Sean said did not apply to this world, he was not wrong, and probably only in this way could he get the convincing and sincere assistance of so many people.

"Let's rest here for a while." Sean said, "Let's do it again at noon, now there's only one thing I have to worry about." ”

"The attitude of the royal family?" Cecilia may not be very mature in the imperial mind control technique, but in this kind of thing related to the political situation, she will become very sharp and shrewd, and she will hit the key target at once, and this is exactly what Sean is not good at.

"If it's the royal attitude, then it's better for us not to speculate for the time being." When Cecilia saw Sean's appearance, she knew that she had guessed what was on his mind, "Even if a king knows everything about his country, he still needs a little reaction time." …… Although the Gray Wolf Blade is nominally the Ryan army, the real power has always been firmly in the hands of the Finlistin family. After all, Ryan was just a principality before. ”

The biggest difference between the principality and the kingdom is that the military command department of the principality actually exists in name only, and basically the army of the principality is controlled by those marquis and earls. At best, it is nominally a principality. But the kingdom is different, the kingdom's military command department has really great power, all officially appointed generals will be recognized by the royal family and even the lords of the kingdom, at this time once the army with the right to belong to the kingdom, then it is really out of the control of the noble lords.

"Probably the Finlistin family should also know that this army that used to be famous has finally reached the time when it is completely out of their control, so they will not hesitate to throw themselves into the battlefield against us." Cecilia thought for a moment. Only then did he speak, "Anyway, for them, even if the Gray Wolf Blade is completely consumed in this battle. That's also a matter for the Lane Kingdom, and it doesn't have anything to do with them anymore. ”

"The selfishness of the aristocracy." Sean took a sip.

"Pretty much, no nobleman is unselfish." Cecilia shrugged, "This time Ryan has been promoted from a Duchy to a kingdom. One of the most urgent things the royal family needs to deal with. It is to regain control of all the armies that were nominally owned by Ryan and complete a new reorganization, which is something that any ascended kingdom must go through. And in the process, any nobles who resist will be regarded as traitors, and since the Fenlistine family has no way to resist and is not willing to hand over control of this army, they have no choice but to use it against us. ”

"But in this way, the attitude of the royal family is ......"

"Didn't I say that? Even if a king knows everything about his country, he still needs time to react. Cecilia chuckled. I don't think the Ryan royal family is still aware of the Gray Wolf Blade's movements. After all, last night's encounter was too sudden. It is estimated that it will not be until noon at the earliest, and the Lane royal family will not receive the news at the earliest, and the next action made by the Lane royal family will be the time to show their attitude. ”

"What do you mean?" Sean's sluggish sense of smell in politics has long been no secret in the Void Realm.

"In other words, if the royal family is on our side, then in the past two days, Fenlistin will definitely be ordered to stop continuing to invoke the gray wolf blade, and if enough attention is paid to us, then the nearby lords who obey the royal family should also take action." Cecilia spoke, "But on the contrary, if the royal family is not on our side, then ......"

Cecilia didn't say the latter words, and Sean already knew the answer: "In other words, see if the royal family has taken any actions in the past two days?" ”

"Yes." Cecilia nodded, "So it's not appropriate for us to speculate on the attitude of the royal family now." …… Of course, no matter what the final outcome is, but as long as we live, there will definitely be compensation from the royal side. ”

"Is it provided that we are alive?" Sean smiled self-deprecatingly, "Anyway, we can only trust Hela and William to come up with a good plan now." ”

"William's words will definitely make a big fuss directly on Finlistin's clan territory by strong means, maybe now Fred and the others are too lazy to continue to hide, but directly put on the posture of an intruder." Cecilia thought for a moment, then suddenly laughed, "But...... To be honest, although I still don't believe in Hela as a woman, I can still roughly guess what she will do. ”

"Oh?" This time, it was Sean's turn to look at Cecilia curiously.

"She's definitely starting to gather momentum now, just waiting for the royal family to show their attitude." Cecilia sighed, "If the Ryan royal family chooses to acquiesce in or even indulge the pursuit of us by Finlistine and the Dovigo family, then she will definitely put up a siege formation in front of the Tonys Fortress, forcing the Ryan royal family to make a new choice." And if the Lane royal family chooses to side with us, then she will definitely find an excuse to get the Lane royal family to agree to our army to pass the fortress of Guòtonis. ”

"Haha, it's a bit like Hela's." Sean laughed, "Just like that, maybe the Ryan royal family will hate us even more, right?" …… It's a bunch of people who don't obey discipline or follow aristocratic rules. ”

"Quite the opposite." Cecilia shook her head and opened her mouth to correct Sean's mistake, "The Ryan royal family previously acquiesced in the assassination operation launched by the Dovigo family against us, this is still within the rules of the game, no one can say anything, even the participation of nobles such as the Finlistin family is understandable." …… But this time, it's not us who break the rules of the game, it's not the Lane royal family, it's the Finlistine family, so even if we ask the army to pass the fortress of Guòtonis, it's not a violation of the rules, as long as we find a perfect excuse. ”

"Is this excuse so easy to find?" Sean frowned.

"So the problem is back to square one." Cecilia said softly, "We still have to see the attitude of the royal family. …… If they're on our side, then the excuse is fine as long as it's not so lame. But if the royal family is not on our side, it doesn't matter if we use excuses or not, anyway, as long as we put up a battle to attack the fortress of Tonys, we are traitors. (To be continued......)
