The sun has risen, and the mild winter is shining on the whole world. Under the light, the entire Taklimakan Lake looks sparkling, like a bright mirror embedded in the earth.
However, there was deathly silence for ten miles around this mirror, without any sound, and it was frighteningly quiet.
"Ta-ta-ta..."
After a long time, footsteps were heard, and a group of people quickly walked to the lake shore.
Looking at the numerous corpses scattered everywhere, Franklin's eyes widened little by little and his mouth opened. Even though he was as calm as he was, he was still in extreme shock.
Before, he lost contact with the people led by Tu Ke and had various speculations, including the guess that the other party might be in trouble and it would be difficult to solve it.
But he never expected that this trouble would cause Tu Ke and his party to die cleanly by the lake.
It seemed that everyone lying on the shore of the lake was calm, without any injuries on their bodies, and there were no traces of magic battles around them, as if they suddenly fell asleep. But the stiff corpses clearly showed that these people would never stand up again.
this…
Franklin's body was cold, like a rusty machine. He turned his head with difficulty and looked sideways at the position behind him.
Behind him, Muse was standing coldly, looking at the corpses of Tu Ke and his party, without saying a word, and the atmosphere was depressing.
Franklin knew that although the siege plan to implement the exchange conference was successful, the effect was not satisfactory, and Muse was angry. This anger was originally planned to be vented towards Tu Ke. After all, Tu Ke was the main person in charge. Who knew that Tu Ke led a lot of people to die here, so the anger could only be suppressed in his heart.
The Muse who was holding back the fire was extremely terrifying. He did not dare to say anything at all, lest Muse regard him as the target of his anger. He just said weakly: "Muse, steward, look... Tu Ke and the corpses of these people. … How to deal with it?”
Muse snorted coldly, turned around and walked away. After walking far away, a voice floated over and said: "You can figure it out yourself. Once you've dealt with it, come back to the base to find me!" He was obviously extremely angry.
Franklin shuddered and watched Muse leave, but he wasted time, looked at the group of people who followed him, and quickly gave instructions to clean up the bodies on the lake shore.
…
the other side.
The Deep Blue Castle garrison turned into a ruined battlefield area.
Many wizards and wizard apprentices in Deep Blue Castle are also cleaning up the corpses. Some corpses are their own, and some corpses are wizards from other wizard organizations. They are all buried or burned together. Occasionally, corpses will be frozen and transported away. Don't know where to ship it.
There was a disgusting stench wafting in the battlefield, and everyone was doing things silently without speaking, lifeless. For them, they were all victims of this conspiracy. Under the leadership of Sig, they had no choice but to stand on the opposite side of the other wizard organizations on the east coast.
They didn't know what would happen in the future. They were confused and pessimistic. Coupled with the heavy casualties, their morale was extremely low. But under Sig's iron-blooded rule, he didn't dare to resist at all. He could only do things like a zombie, praying that things would turn around.
…
Outside the battlefield, at the top of a rare undamaged stone tower at Deep Blue Castle, Sig was looking at the man in black robe in front of him with an ugly face - his messenger to contact the mysterious organization.
"Bayer, right?" Sig rarely called out the other party's name, which showed that he was very angry and asked in a loud voice, "You promised me well at the beginning, and you will definitely cause heavy losses to the wizard organization participating in the meeting. The result is now! In addition to killing the more than 20 powerful guys, nearly half of the wizards left at the venue have escaped! Half! What do you want me to do! How to deal with the rest of the matter?!"
"Heh." The man in black robe named Bayer listened to Sig's words and didn't take it seriously. He said slowly, "Actually, there is no difference."
"No difference?!" Sig became even angrier, pointing at Bayer and shouting, "Do you think I am an ignorant child! Will those who escape easily let Deep Blue Castle go, will they let me go easily? They will definitely Revenge, what will happen then? Your people are willing to continue to help me? But, you have screwed up this time, how can you make me trust you?!"
"Dean Sig, don't be so angry." Bayer still looked tepid and said softly, "I'm not lying to you. There is really no difference in the matter. Yes, the person who escaped this time is indeed It’s a bit much, but even you don’t think that this plan won’t let one person go and kill them all, right?”
"But there's no need to let go of so many!"
"It's the same." Bayer said, "Whether we let one person go, half let go, or more, it's all in our plan. You don't even think about it, even if we really put all the people who participated in the exchange conference Kill them all. Will the people they left behind come to take revenge on you Deep Blue Castle? In fact, there will be no big changes in the future development of things. They are all under our control. There is indeed a small problem now, but it won't It affects the overall situation.”
After hearing this, Sig looked at Bayer, his expression changed slightly, and he became a little surprised. He stared at Bayer and asked: "According to what you said, are you preparing to deal with the wizards on the entire east coast?"
"No, to be precise, it's the wizards other than your Deep Blue Castle."
"Don't play this kind of word game with me. I just want to know who you are and what confidence you have in doing such crazy things. What good will this do to you?"
Facing Sig's doubts, Bayer smiled, looked at Sig and said slowly: "Dean Sig, haven't I told you before? We are the royal family of the Black Ling Empire. Hundreds of years ago, the Black Ling Empire We will preserve our strength and hide it. Now that the time is almost ripe, we are ready to restore our country. Our promise to you will not change. If our restoration is successful, you will definitely get your share of the benefits."
"The Black Spirit Empire, the Royal Family of the Black Spirit Empire, restore the country!" Sig looked at Bayer with a strange expression, and suddenly laughed, "Okay, okay, you are the royal family of the Black Spirit Empire, and you are ready to restore the country! I If you believe me, I will fully support you. However, don’t play any tricks, I will always keep my eyes on you.”
"Don't worry, Dean Sig, we will never lie to you." Bayer smiled, "After all, we are on the same side."
"I hope so." Sig said with a straight face, "Well, I have a lot of things to deal with after this war, and my subordinates' emotions also need to be appeased, so I'll take the first step."
"Dean Sig, walk slowly."
"You're welcome!" Sig said, quickly leaving the stone tower.
Looking at Sig's retreating back, Bayer's eyes flickered for a moment, then returned to normal, he slowly shook his head, and his body became blurred and disappeared into the air.
