Chapter 585

If you pay too much attention to reason, you will easily have friction with others. If you are too obedient to emotions, you will be influenced by emotions. If you stick to your own opinions, you will eventually end up in the end.

Xialan did not understand the hostility that Pasifal showed, but in fact he just ignored something that he thought was not important.

Among the Twelve Knights of Heris, as the only two think tanks, Pasifal and Berrant are of course quite close. Facing Berrant, who is better than him in any aspect, Pasifal did not feel jealous, but instead had a respectful mentality.

After learning about Berrant's experience, you can imagine his impression of Xia Lan. Even if Berrant repeatedly explained the inside story, it would be difficult to let go of his inner anger.

He is a person who takes into account the overall situation. He hates Xia Lan, but it does not mean that he will act perfunctorily on purpose.

The contradiction in the tavern was purely because his suppressed emotional endurance reached its limit before it erupted.

He did not regret it afterwards, nor did he explain it. Some things are good for each other when they are told.

At least he no longer has to wear a hypocritical mask.

During the autumn harvest season, the whole of Monteres was dyed with golden color. The wheat waves rolled in the fields, and the dead leaves in the forest withered and then flew withered in the wind. Looking up at the sky, migratory birds can sometimes be seen migrating towards the warm south.

Pasifal sat by the window on the second floor of a restaurant, his eyes wandering on the bustling streets, looking at the endless stream of vehicles and crowds, his indifferent mood was never infected.

Monteres' agriculture has always been barren, and food is often solved by imports, while the mature trade system ensures its prosperity, especially in terms of strict order, so there is no need to worry about the infringement of its own security property. Thinking about the rampant and cruel pirates who come ashore are like obedient and docile cats, which can be seen from this.

Recently, more and more business trips to Monterres have been intensified, which means that Pasifal's exploration has been intensified because his intelligence channels are difficult to cover every point, and omissions are absolutely inevitable.

It is reported that the Temple gradually regained its war disadvantage these days. The first news of the excitement was that the Temple suddenly took the initiative to attack on the Gadavian defense line and defeated the three gold-level legions of the Heather Empire, successfully breaking the opponent's tight encirclement, thus laying the foundation for a counterattack.

It is undeniable that the existence of the teleportation magic circle is the greatest contributor to the temple's operation. Only the temple, which is troubled by material soldiers, can have real potential for war. For this reason, the temple has sent heavy troops to guard the magic circles that have been successfully operated, and must not be attacked by the Heather Empire and lead to paralysis and collapse.

Even Monteres, whose magic circle has not yet been put into use, came a reorganized brigade last month, which is enough to show how much importance the Holy Church attaches to after tasting the sweetness.

Unfortunately, the targeted attacks of the Heather Empire have not happened for a long time, otherwise Pasifal would not have been under such great pressure.

He and Xia Lan both knew that the Heather Empire would either remain motionless, but would move like thunder. The seemingly solid defenses may be vulnerable in front of the opponent. Therefore, he had to investigate the movements of the Heather Empire to ensure that his side would not fall into a passive situation that was caught off guard in the future.

The embarrassing thing is that he has not found any useful clues so far.

Suddenly, a firework exploded over the downtown market, as if it was a prank by a child, attracting attention from pedestrians on the street. However, Pasifal's face changed and he could no longer maintain his original calmness.

Because, this is the code Herris contacted him.

...

...

"Have you not come yet?"

Xia Lan, who was biting the grass roots in her mouth and sitting on the reef by the sea, looked bored at the pier that was about to be completed in the distance. Waiting was a long torment. Time had not sucked his patience, but his vigilance was increasing. The calmer the wave, the more hidden the unknown undercurrents. Everyone understands this truth.

Since the Holy Temple sent another reorganized brigade to garrison, his life has become more and more leisurely. Practicing swords, reading books, and taking walks every day has become his standard daily routine. Even the patrol and supervision of the defense are assigned to the new deputy to command.

The only thing that can arouse his interest now is the trend of Elderland's recent situation.

When others were paying attention to whether the Gadavian defense temple would counterattack the Heather Empire again, the coalition forces of various countries on the front line of the Etan Kingdom were stably striving against the reverse progress of the front line, the details of the attacks of various teleportation arrays, etc., but he set his sight on the continent on the other side of the strait.

Sissinia is destroyed.

This is what he learned not long ago.

The crazy offensive of Sugaro's undead was indeed eye-opening. The front-line soldiers have gradually advanced steadily towards the capital of Esdaq's trade city. If nothing unexpected happens, the undead of Sugaro will completely complete the unified conquest within this year.

After realizing this situation, the Holy Church not only did not send troops to organize resistance, but instead made the priests in Port Louis to plunder materials and organize retreat. It seemed that they had chosen to strategically give up this wild land.

"His Highness Green, Governor Augsger sent someone to send a message that they have prepared the first batch of supplies and are planning to ask you when will you accept it?"

At this time, a burly man dressed like a sailor suddenly came behind Xia Lan and said.

Xia Lan turned around and looked at the other party and nodded, saying, "Go back and tell Augsger that the magic circle has been built and you will be able to receive it after reporting it to the upper side in the near future. Please wait for my news on the specific date."

"Abide by the order!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the burly man turned around and left as if nothing had happened.

In fact, it is okay to hide the disguise and conceal the ordinary people in this area. If someone is interested in exploring it, he will definitely find the weirdness in the mountains. Moreover, the teleportation array has long been widely circulated among the people over time, and it is not surprising that Monteres will have any chance to make a fortune.

Next, he planned to spread the teleportation array by taking over the matter of receiving materials and soldiers. His purpose was nothing more than to alert the enemy. He was always worried and scared on the surface. It would be better to put on a stance to test the truth.

Of course, the premise is that Christopher will agree with his ideas.

However, the result was a bit unexpected. Perhaps out of some fear or unwilling to take risks, his request was rejected.

Through this incident, we can roughly judge that the other party's behavior tends to be conservative. At this point, Xia Lan has nothing to say, but she can only expect good news to come from Pasifal.

...

...

As winter approaches, Monteres' teleportation array is officially put into operation, and a large number of materials and soldiers are constantly transporting to the front line. The newly built pier is docked with ships of all sizes, and heavy transport vehicles are driving around. The scene of enthusiasm can be seen everywhere. People who find business opportunities are entering one after another. In less than half a month, it has become a booming emerging market.

The attack that Xia Lan imagined seemed to suddenly lose its news, and she waited silently like a joke.

"His Royal Highness Greene, this is a new appointment decision issued to you by the Supreme Cardinal."

Looking at the young knight who was wearing bright silver armor in front of him, who looked heroic and extraordinary, Xia Lanmo silently took the letter handed over from the other party, picked up the fire paint, took out the appointment letter written in parchment, glanced briefly, and confirmed that the anti-counterfeiting seal on the paper was authentic and fake, he sighed lightly and directly put the letter in his arms.

In the letter, his new appointment was the commander of the reorganized Seventh Army Corps of the Expeditionary Force, and he must go to the Mailon Army Town, the Gadavia defense line, to take office within three days.

"Are you the one to take over me?"

"Yes Your Highness! In Lower Aegru, the former adjutant of the First Battalion of the Holy Grail Knights." The young knight said with pride in his tone.

It is very rare for a knight in the sacred vocational school to be so young and rank in a high-ranking vocational school. He either has nepotism or is a genius, but after Xia Lan looked at it intentionally or unintentionally, the answer should belong to the former.

"Is the war on the front really urgent to the point of a full-scale counterattack?" he asked.

"Yes, after defeating the encircled army reinforced by the Heather Empire again a month ago, the top leaders decided to seize the opportunity to adopt a winter blitzkrieg offensive. Not only did they completely crush the empire's evil plots, but they also drove the opponent out of the Brunswick-Sarus area and regain the initiative of strategy." The young knight raised his head and said with his chest raised.

After hearing this, Xia Lan felt her eyelids twitch. The successive good news made the morale of the Holy Temple camp greatly boost, and her mentality would expand, but he did not expect that the Holy Temple would expand to the point of being eager for quick success and instant benefits.

Have they forgotten how they were suppressed by the Heather Empire when the supplies were sufficient? Do they want to end the Battle of Mount Colan again?

"Aegru, is this operation generally supported in the church now?"

"Of course! Because we have all seen the true face of the Heather Empire, in fact, until now, the war has been fought, and each other is waiting for who will be unable to hold on. It seems that we have won!" The young knight raised a smile and said.

"I will hand over the specific handover work to the deputy in the team, and I can't wait to get back to the front line."

Xia Lan stood up, reached out and patted the other person on the shoulder, and then walked straight outside the tent. When he arrived at the door, he seemed to remember something and did not forget to turn around and remind him.

"Beware of the Empire's attack on the magic circle."

After leaving, Sharan rushed to Monteres without stopping because he had to meet Pasifal.

Speaking of the other party, he hasn't contacted himself for a long time.

When he sent out the signal of an appointment, he waited patiently at the agreed place for half a day, but Pasifal did not appear for a long time.

He began to think randomly. Did something happen to the other party?

At this time, a simple-dressed little boy walked up to him timidly, and said carefully, "May I ask... are you waiting for someone?"

Xia Lan frowned and looked at the boy in front of her, and said with a thought: "Yes, I'm waiting for a man named Owl."

The little boy felt relieved after hearing this. He took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Xia Lan, saying, "A long time ago, a man hired me to sit here for a long time. If he met a man waiting for an owl, he would ask me to hand the letter to the other party."

Xia Lan took the letter and did not open it as soon as possible, but stared at the boy and said, "When did he explain this matter to you?"

"It seems two months ago." The boy turned his head and thought for a while, "My job is completed. Please thank your friend for his generous employment. I hope that there will be such a good thing to tell me next time."

After saying that, the little boy turned around and disappeared into the vast crowd.

Xia Lan did not chase after her, but leaned against the wall and opened the letter.

There is only a short sentence in the letter.

Someone summoned him urgently, but I forgive him for leaving without saying goodbye.

Xia Lan took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart and kneaded the letter into a ball and held it tightly in the palm of her hand.

What exactly does Heath want to do if he suddenly pulls out his hand without saying hello?

Could it be—

In an instant, his thoughts connected a series of things that happened on the mainland these days. He always felt that Heris was deliberately hiding something from him. The deeper he studied, the deeper he was in the endless mystery.

He vaguely foreshadowed a possibility, but this may be too vague and difficult to express clearly.

He only caught a few keywords.

Teleportation array, Sogro's undead, the frequent news of the church, the empire's numbness decline, the winter blitz attack, and the new appointment of the Gadavian defense line.

I rubbed my eyebrows and tried to empty my head to dispel countless confusions.
