The night is getting darker.

After walking for most of the day, I arrived at the village and was busy repairing the houses. At the end of the day, the cat charms were exhausted. After eating the smorgasbord of rice cereal stewed in a big pot, the cat charms have found a place to lie down and prepare to rest.

There are no bars in the village, so there is no entertainment. In addition, cat charms are generally relatively young and are not allowed to drink, so sleeping has become the only option. In the spacious first-floor lobby of the large cafeteria, small snoring and the occasional dream chirping can be heard everywhere.

Eliza and Shino walked cautiously through the hall, taking care not to step on their sleeping clansmen as they made their night rounds.

The renovation of the large canteen has been almost completed. According to the understanding of the cat charms, the house has become "airtight", as long as the fire is lit, then the house is very warm. The conditions here are much better than in the cave! Whether it is a cat charm or a guest human, they are all satisfied. However, in the eyes of a certain nobleman, the house is still dilapidated and leaking on all sides. All in all, all kinds of dislikes, all kinds of picks.

But fortunately, everyone knows that this nobleman is a "knife mouth and a mushy heart", so he complains a few words, and no little cat charm will take his words to heart. On the contrary, everyone has always thought:

- Look, look, the nobles of the "loser" are sending good things to everyone under what name!

Before the break, the new twin sisters came over with a large stack of blankets and stuffed one into each of the cat charms. The youngest ones were also given a small box of sweet candy, much to the delight of the children in the makeshift kindergarten.

The color of the leaden gray blanket is a little monotonous, but the workmanship is very fine, and most importantly, it is very soft and warm! Although the blanket doesn't look very thick, just a thin layer, but when you wrap it around your body, your body will soon warm up! A few clever little guys also folded multiple blankets to make them thicker, and then hugged each other and curled up into a ball to get in, and the warmth went to the next level.

After looking around, seeing that there was nothing unusual, Eliza and Shino stepped up the stairs and walked up to the second floor.

Like the first floor, the second floor of the large cafeteria is also a hall that is completely connected to the end. Compared to the dim first floor, the second floor was brightly lit at the moment, and the white ball of light composed of illumination was slowly undulating under the low roof, and the slightly dazzling light illuminated the entire second floor as if it were day.

In the center of the second floor of the room is a long table with a large map. The village's few adult cats and guest humans were talking softly around the long table, pointing at the map from time to time.

For some reason, the atmosphere on the second floor was a little tense.

“…… From the other side of the ocean, an army of skeletons and zombies. They're on ghost ships, and they're going to land here, here, and here. First the island of Sasot was captured, followed by an attack on the port of Op. They will sink all the ships in the harbor, whether they are warships, merchant ships, or fishing ships, and completely turn the Opp region into a dead zone, and then divide the army in two ways. All the way around the west shore of the Misty Lake, go to Sunset Town, attack Wuxi Castle, and then fight the Fallen Leaf Pass with the orcs. The other way is to take the south shore of the misty lake, pass through Huaiwu Town, and go straight to Huquan Town......"

The invasion route described by Fang Qiuling is the route used by the Dark Nation during the first Kuroshio War in the game. The resistance in the entire Mist Lake area lasted only two weeks before it collapsed and retreated.

Although the content he described was a bit unbelievable, and some of the cat charms present were shocked and stunned, none of them doubted the authenticity of the content. And the old Tom, who has the identity of a secret agent, touched his beard with a gloomy face, and his eyes showed a terrifying gaze, as if he was going to choose someone to devour at any time!

"I recommend...... You gave up your plans for spring ploughing and immediately prepared to flee. The undead's blades will be directed at the Rift Fortress, and at least they must flee to the Rift Fortress to be safe. There is an avenue to get to Rift Fortress from here, but it's not close. Food, water, warm clothing, and horse-drawn carriages are all essential, so prepare as much as possible. Although the invasion has not yet begun, there are already signs of it. The invasion of the undead is completely different from the war between kingdoms, the dead and the living are naturally opposed, and everything will be turned into the underworld. Any deal, any compromise, has no meaning in the face of the dead......"

Although the previous confrontation with the undead in the Ripple River Shoal was a complete victory, for the Dark Country Mamo, this was really just a small fight, and it was completely off the stage. A slight loss of "personnel" is not painful for the Dark Nation at all, as for the failure of the strategic layout...... Ha, I'm sorry, this is just a "moth" made up by a necromancer who is idle and has nothing to do, and if it fails, it fails, and it doesn't expect to succeed.

The cat charms did not question, and Old Tom was silent as if he were thoughtful, and the first to stand up and express his doubts was the priest who served Notos, the god of wind, Eddard.

"Mr. Norn, what you said is unbelievable!"

Pastor Ed looked indignant.

Together with Fang Qiuling, he had fought with the necromancer in the underground passageway, and he knew very well the horror of the undead. Even the "wild breeds" that are "not very skilled in business" are enough to bring devastating disasters to a large town like Lakesprings, not to mention the sea of undead that spreads all over the mountains. Just imagining it is creepy.

“…… Even in mythological stories, there is no such scene! How dare you assert that all this said is true, that it will happen soon! ”

Fang Qiuling glanced at Pastor Eddard, and the deep look of pity made Pastor Ed's slightly flushed face cold.

"Old Ed, I'm a nobleman, and I'm busy. No time, no time, no interest, and no mood to come here and joke with you and brag to you! ”

As soon as these words came out, Pastor Eddard, who was originally a little weak-hearted, immediately blushed again. The next sentence made his mind "buzz", and his body jumped up uncontrollably.

“…… What's in it for you to lie to you? There's no sugar to eat! ”

The twin sons sitting next to him laughed out loud, and Eliza, who had just walked up to the second floor, couldn't help but upturn the corners of her mouth.

The twins didn't know much about Elune, and they didn't know anything about the First Kuroshio War, so they just listened. Eliza doesn't understand at all, and the so-called fearlessness of the unknown is her.

But Pastor Ed is different. He knew very well that if the content described by Fang Qiuling was not false, no, as long as there was a point of actual situation, then the misty lake area would still face an unprecedented catastrophe! Therefore, if he knew that there was a disease called high blood pressure, Pastor Ed would immediately make a judgment that "I have high blood pressure and should take blood pressure medicine immediately." However, Elune's medical care was not yet at this point, so Pastor Eddard only felt that his mind was swollen, his eyes were a little blurry, and the anger in his heart was rushing upward.

However, before the thin string of reason was burned by the flames of anger, Fang Qiuling poured a touch of cold water on it in time.

"Alright, calm down, old Eddard. You just want to know where I got this news from. Further, I also want to know if I am a spy or undercover agent sent by the undead. ”

"That's right!" Pastor Ed gasped, "Say it! Don't mess me with messy excuses! ”

"Humph!"

Fang Qiuling didn't say much, he directly grabbed a few documents that were placed on the side and threw them directly on the map.

"What is this?"

"The inside clerk of the mercenary training group." It was not Fang Qiuling who answered Pastor Ed's words, but Old Tom who was touching his beard, "These documents have been verified many times by the secret agents of the teaching group, and the accuracy of the information is not questioned. ”

Fang Qiuling continued with Old Tom's words: "The earliest document was three weeks ago, and many merchant ships that were expected to arrive failed to dock in time. To be exact, after winter, none of the merchant ships that were supposed to arrive in winter made it to Op Harbor. ”

He singled out one of the many documents.

"This is a report from two weeks ago, the port guard from Port Opple, saying that two madmen have been caught. The two madmen claimed to be fishermen from Sasot Island, and the boat was rammed and sunk when they went out to sea to fish the other day. None of the other crew members were able to escape, and only the two of them survived after drifting for a long time with driftwood in their arms. The fishermen on Sasot Island and the harbor guards knew it, so they just hanged them. This ...... followed"

Another document was thrown in front of Pastor Eddard.

"It was also reported two weeks ago, fishermen from the port, who made a fuss. It is said that three of the five fishing boats that went out to sea to fish a few days ago came back, and two more are missing. It seems that the missing fishing boat has not yet returned, and no trace of it has been found......"

Pastor Ed was confused: "...... What does this mean? It seems、It doesn't seem to matter! Not at all related! ”

"There were no merchant ships that docked on time, no fishing boats that didn't come back in time, and two crazy people...... Each of these things is individually, and there really is nothing wrong with looking at it alone. Old Tom's voice was low, as if it had been squeezed out of his teeth, "But if you connect them and find common ground, you will find a problem." ”

"Mr. Hadner, please speak up!"

“…… The sea route to the west is broken! ”

"The sea route is broken? The sea route is broken......"

Pastor Ed's face had turned pale.

Fang Qiuling also said in a deep voice: "I can't confirm whether the sea route is really broken. I hope it was a mistake in my judgment. There were no foreign ships calling at the port throughout the winter, which is definitely not a normal situation for Op Harbor! However, it can be preliminarily judged that there must be a hostile fleet in the open sea of Op Harbor, that is, on the Sea of Sorrow! They controlled the course of the Sea of Sorrows. ”

He slapped the table hard.

"Why is the Sea of Sorrow called the Sea of Sorrow? It's because of the ghost ships that haunt from time to time! The control of the route on such a scale would never have been possible without the participation of the Dark Nation Mamo! ”
