"It seems that the results of last night's battle should be enough to make Lucia angry." In the breakfast room, he held the hot soup basin of noodles and soaked the noodles cut into small pieces. It seemed that he was going to wait until they were soft before eating. . When I woke up early in the morning, I heard news of a retreat from the territory. It¡¯s no wonder players have all kinds of ideas popping up in their minds. Although several people had already raised this possibility last night. But when the 'judgment' came down, everyone's emotions still had a lot of ups and downs. After swallowing the dry food chewed in her mouth, Claudia took another sip of hot soup: "I think she is not just annoyed, but she is angry. I don't know who they will send to deal with us." "We and Those Lucians have fought against each other 2-3 times already!" Rielli, who was stirring the soup pot with a spoon, twitched her facial muscles: "Although they probably haven't finished all of our old tricks yet! After exploring it, we should have a general image. If we are really looking for a master to deal with us, he will definitely be a strong and targeted enemy, even if he cannot completely restrain us by then. Once there are ordinary Lucia soldiers around to help, not everyone will be able to leave safely! " "I can't guarantee it for others, but Lily, you can fly, there is a chance of escaping" Ke heard this. Lamatis then teased the mage. Then he dipped the dry food into the hot soup and put it in his mouth. Rierli twitched the corners of her mouth: "What's the use if I can run away? I can't leave Lulu alone!" "Anyway, you won't really die in the game. What if? If this happens, you can at least save a resurrection stone by running away, Rielle!" Barrett, who had been talking to his companions, put down the spoon in his hand at this time. After hearing Barrett's remarks, Rielli was stunned for a moment, and then remained silent for a while before continuing: "Although in terms of cost performance, Barrett, your proposal does make some sense. But as a woman, I am an emotional creature, so I will not give up Lulu and leave alone in that situation." After saying this, Rielli hugged Mao Zai who was drinking soup and kissed her cheek. He gently rubbed its cat ears. Immediately afterwards, the claws of Clematis and Claudia were handed to Rielle's waist. Then, under the scratching of the two ladies, Rielle was forced to laugh so hard that she couldn't straighten up as she left. The show of affection towards the dog also stopped. "Ahem! You three, stop making trouble now, we are talking about serious things now!" Barrett coughed twice, and before leaving, he reminded the ladies to pay attention to their image. Immediately, Clematis and Claudia retracted their palms, and Rierli let go of Lalu and straightened her wrinkled robe. After seeing the reactions of the three people in front of him, Barrett nodded with satisfaction: "Although it is a foregone conclusion that we will leave this area, how we will go has not yet been determined." "Then Bolum, Didn't you put forward any opinions on the retreat?" Clematis raised his eyebrows, obviously not believing it. In her opinion, based on the past performance of the Bolum family, it is impossible not to give players a feasible guidance opportunity like this. "It seems not." After saying this, Barrett turned his eyes to the anvil, "You probably didn't miss anything, right?" "No! I guarantee there is absolutely nothing." The dwarf shook his head after hearing this. After shaking his head twice, he raised his palm again as if swearing: "And the communication gem only transmits a few digital messages each time. If there is really any retreat plan, it shouldn't be possible. Send them all at once!" "That's true." Rierli reluctantly accepted the answer, but then she posed a new question to Barrett: "Since there is no guidance from the territory, Barrett Leiter, you should have a plan in mind! You won't let us run around like that." "There are indeed two retreat plans." While speaking, Barrett pointed with his finger. own head. But then he suddenly changed his voice: "However, the direction did not send a specific evacuation plan before, which does not mean that there will be no guidance in the future. Who knows whether we will be able to compete with another team that came to practice. So just in case, we retreat immediately, but we cannot retreat too far from the border. We cannot return directly to the country without further orders. " "Wait, if it is direct. If we retreat, won't we enter the Cruze local faction's timing control area?" Noodles said, putting down his breakfast, and then took out a map from his pocket: "Although we knew before we came here, In terms of action, Norhan is peaceful.These Cruze nobles have a certain tacit understanding. But if we do not wait at the border, but directly enter their actual control area, will it cause any unnecessary misunderstandings? ¡± The halfling rogue in front of me pays more attention than others, so he will naturally have more opinions of his own. In fact, many members of the rogue profession are involved in secret political actions, and their livelihoods are also very important. It is affected by the political situation and the people in charge. Therefore, more time and energy are invested in this aspect than most other professions. Although everyone says that bards are the best spies and diplomats. In fact, the wanderer can be said to be the same, but the latter does not often appear under the sun. "What you said does make sense. But I guess this shouldn't be a problem. As long as we don't make any dangerous moves after entering, I think there shouldn't be any big problem. "As he spoke, Barrett laughed, "As long as those nobles are smart enough, they should know what to do to their own benefit. Instead of worrying about this, let¡¯s worry about what we should do if we encounter members of the ¡®Dragon Queen¡¯ church in that area! ¡± It is true that the Nohan side and the Cruz local faction could not have been a close alliance before. In a sense, both sides are conspirators who have their own agenda and are always waiting to stab each other in the back. But under the current situation , it is still a situation where both parties benefit from cooperation. Those Cruz local factions need the power of Nohan to help them fight against the Lucian invasion. Although they have taken the initiative in the civil war, they are still far from completely overwhelming the royal family and its allies. A distance that is not too short. In this case, there is no way to raise troops to fight against the Lucian invasion. What's more, even if the royal family is solved, this civil war will also consume a lot of examples on Cruze's side. The resulting chaos has seriously affected its war potential. If not, the Kingdom of Lucia would not have launched an attack in the middle of winter, but wanted the two forces in the Kingdom of Cruz to stop the civil war and fight against the outside world. The local powerful factions whose land is directly adjacent to Lucia are definitely willing to support it. However, the Cruze royal family will never be willing to cooperate with the local nobles in a weak position at this time. They will probably regard this as a reversal. The key to the domestic situation is that after the local nobles are finally weakened, can they still unite to drive away the Lucians? Even if the Lucian royal family is at the end of its rope, even if it understands the key, it will still be done for its own interests. I don¡¯t want to think too much about it. Although Norhan is also peeping at the land and wealth of the Cruze Kingdom, they also need to stop the Lucians¡¯ actions, otherwise the greedy white bear will eat them. , there is really only a little bit of water left on the Nohan side. Therefore, in terms of preventing the invasion of the Lucia Kingdom, the cooperation between the Cruze local forces and the Nohan Kingdom will still be limited before they really break up. Maintain a friendly attitude, at least on the surface. Of course, from Barrett's point of view, some local nobles in Cruze actually don't mind changing themselves to a new crown prince. It was really bad, and under the conditions of feudalism, once the monarchy and ministers system was disintegrated, they did have the power to decide their own destiny. As for whether the new monarch was a branch of the original royal family, the current leader of the local nobles, or a foreigner. The kings are actually not that different. If the Lucians had not had such a bad reputation in this regard, and there was a feud between the two, they might have become alternative targets. So even if the players entered the Cruze local faction! After actually controlling the area, there will probably not be any obvious difficulties. On the contrary, the "Evil Dragon Queen" church, which has been severely offended before, will be a big trouble. You must know that although the Cruze local faction is on the frontal battlefield. Not only did the royal family lose ground one after another, but the "Evil Dragon Queen" church that originally occupied some towns also suffered heavy losses. This caused many members of the "Evil Dragon Queen" church organization that had already become public. Returned to the shadows and went underground. However, judging from the information received so far, the most critical strongholds valued by the 'Evil Dragon Queen' church are still in their hands. Because the Cruze local faction suffered too much losses in the storming and there are other enemies at the same time, they have temporarily let them go. Slow down the offensive in those places. Although one demiplane means huge benefits, the benefits of the main plane are even greater and more important. Of course, from the perspective of the Cruze local faction, this is a good thing. Except for those areas that are really difficult to deal with, the rest can be suppressed slowly as long as the other party does not directly seize power. But for players, these enemies hidden in the dark are far more dangerous than when they are in the open. Very??Some people can always be on guard against the sharp knife coming from behind. "Those guys are really a headache!" Recalling the previous escape trip in the Cruze Kingdom, Noodles frowned and looked a little embarrassed at the same time. In his opinion, if it weren't for him, his companions would not be involved in such trouble. Clematis touched his cheek: "Let's live in the temple of our Lord then! As long as we don't overdo it, I think the Church of the 'Evil Dragon Queen' won't find any chance. "I don't believe they came to attack the temple of the 'Goddess of Wealth and Commerce'." "This is also a solution!" Speaking of this, Barrett grabbed the map in Noodle's hand, "The one closest to us now. It takes about 3-4 days to travel to the town. In the remaining small villages, I am worried that I will not be able to find the temple of His Highness. After all, even in the border areas, not every village can have frequent trade. " " Then hurry up and wait for further news about the territory?" Rielli asked, staring at Barrett. The latter nodded: "Leave as soon as possible! If Lucia finds us a knight as an opponent, we will definitely be in danger now. Judging from the damage we caused that night, we can indeed afford it." Such treatment." Players who had observed the fight between the two knights during their previous stay in the northern city-state were still frightened by their amazing fighting power. They understand that if they really encounter such an opponent, as long as the opponent's mount is suitable, they may not even be able to escape. In addition, if ordinary soldiers cooperate with the encirclement and suppression, there will be no way to the sky and no way to the earth. ¡°The players who then put away the rare objects rode on their horses blessed with ¡®Snow Boots¡¯ and headed towards their destinations. Although if Lucia really sends knights to deal with it, the 2-3 days journey will not give the players much sense of security. However, the towns of the Cruze Kingdom were able to face the sudden imperial knights, and the local ones had to take action regardless of the reasons for the opponent's actions. To put it bluntly, the players are just preparing to let the Cruzes prevent disaster for them. But just when the escape was halfway through, another message came out of the communication gem in Barrett's hand. Barrett frowned as he looked at the long sentence, and finally turned his horse's head: "Let's go south!" "Barrett, are you really going to make peace with those people?" Rielli was obviously a little worried. Reluctantly, "But in that case, the target will be bigger than what we are now. Don't you think this may become a target for the Lucians?" "With such an obvious target, do you think there will be such an obvious target in the territory? Serious mistake?" Barrett said without looking back. After hearing this, Clematis understood something when he left: "This means that if we make peace in the past, it will be a bait to attract the Lucians to invest heavy troops?" (To be continued.)
