The intercontinental is forty miles away from the main battlefield, and this is among the mountains to the north of the entire intercontinental.
It has the most extensive mountain range in the world. Each mountain has four seasons. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, and the mountainside is covered with lush green forests.
Summer is the season when plants in the mountains grow most luxuriantly. All things grow and multiply. It is peaceful and peaceful all year round.
But this tranquility was broken by a group of uninvited guests two months ago. These people came with luggage on their backs and drove into this inaccessible land in an orderly and uniform manner.
A paradise that used to be a place where only animals and plants grew, is now full of human figures, and the lush century-old trees have become a natural shield for these people.
There are green tents under the trees, hidden in the mountains when viewed from above, and they are integrated with the green branches and leaves.
This is a protective color from nature, giving these people the greatest degree of protection.
In order to hide in it, they didn't even have stoves and fireworks, and relied solely on mountain spring water and the dry food they carried with them to survive.
The scope of this war was so vast. There were obvious traces of being burned by fire at the entrance to the mountain. The trees were burned to charcoal, and the bodies of small animals that had no time to escape could even be seen.
A distance of twenty miles is still affected.
In the large tent surrounded by countless tents, the sentry standing at the door is enough to show that the people in the tent are of high status.
"General, how long are we going to hide here like this?" The deputy general looked at the man standing next to the sand table and asked.
A full month has passed since they entered the mountains.
The general meant to stand still, but the fighting continued all night outside, and the gunpowder and the strong smell of blood spread here.
Why does the general still look like he's not in a hurry
"Wait a moment, it's not time for us to appear yet." The man lowered his head and gently moved the sand table with the baton in his hand.
I have been waiting for this for a few days now, and I don’t care if I have to wait for a few more days.
The originally blue and clear sky was suddenly covered with a layer of shadow, and the black clouds gathered more and more densely.
Floating from a distance, it blocks the sunlight shining on the ground. Clouds floating and blocking the sunlight often happen here.
It didn't attract much attention.
A gust of howling wind passed by, causing the fallen leaves to spin in the air and then fall. The patrolling soldiers raised their hands to block the dust.
"Why is this wind so weird?"
After everyone was puzzled, they continued to patrol near the camp.
Inside the tent, the sudden appearance of a figure startled the two of them. The person appeared suddenly without any warning.
The man's full head of silver hair when he turned his head was really eye-catching, but the red flame pattern that jumped up between his eyebrows was as gorgeous as the flame that suddenly ignited on the lonely white snow.
"Your Mightiness."
Looking at the two people who bowed respectfully, the man glanced lightly.
"I remember your name was Hebrew, right?"
Hebrew bowed his head, "Yes."
"It was you who broke the seal and found a way to connect the two worlds. Now that the army is at the critical point, I will help you capture this place after cleaning everything as promised."
Hebrew nodded, "Then I'll help you, Your Excellency."
"But now there is only the last step left to unlock the seal. Someone has already made up his mind. Once the seal is re-strengthened, all your plans will be in vain."
Hebrew frowned. Before setting off, he had reminded Hatas what Prince Pei wanted. According to Hatas's love for Wen Li, it was impossible for Wen Li to sacrifice.
As long as no one sacrifices, this seal can be broken immediately.
Could it be that something happened suddenly.
"You should know what point we are at now. If something goes wrong again, you will lose everything. My understanding of this place is not impenetrable. The door between the two worlds must be closed. There is no one behind you. The general marshal of the intercontinental world. He is not an incompetent person, and he must get to the bottom of it.”
Of course, Hebrew knew better than him what kind of character Quan Yanling was. He was not stupid. Once he got busy, he would definitely investigate thoroughly.
At that time, the little secret hidden by King K's royal family will eventually be unable to be covered up.
"Is there nothing you can do? Now that we are in the same boat, you can't just watch us lose like this." Hebrew looked at the man in front of him.
Back then, he got this huge secret through many twists and turns, and he had a plan in mind.
Since he has to climb up step by step, why can't he climb to the highest position instead of being a dwarf in every way
Since he wants to sit, he should be in the top position.
"I'll remind you one last time. If you lose, I will crush you to death with my own hands."
Seeing that the war has started and everything is over, we cannot let things go wrong at this juncture.
Hebrews is very clear about this.
The man turned into a puff of smoke and left, leaving Hebrew standing there.
Tang Yu stepped forward and reminded, "Your Highness, I think you know what happened in the palace. I heard that Wen Li went to talk to Prince Pei for a long time after coming out of the altar."
According to the high priest's files, the fallen angel chose Princess Lejia.
As long as she is dead, the sacrifice will naturally not be carried out.
But by all calculations, one thing was missed: Le Jia's daughter actually became the person chosen by the Fallen Angel.
When Hatas planned to send his daughter away, he calculated that Prince Pei would be absent and the person in charge of the sacrifice would be Prince Pei.
Le Jia was gone. He was more worried than anyone about the punishment of the K Congress.
The disasters that had occurred in the past two years made him more and more worried. Wen Li's appearance at this juncture was like a life-saving straw.
For the sake of the overall situation, Prince Pei must of course send Wen Li away to sacrifice.
"Maybe that girl wants to offer a sacrifice." Hebra said in confusion.
Tang Yu suddenly realized, "She doesn't really want to..."
Once Wen Li sacrifices and the seal is reopened, won't everything they do be in vain
"I will arrange for people to return to the palace immediately and make sure to kill Wen Li." Tang Yu said.
Hebrew raised his hand and stopped his movement, "Even if it results in Wen Li, they can still find other ways to seal it. This matter must be cut off directly from the root."
Tang Yu has been with him for many years, and of course he knows what His Highness is planning now.
After so many years of enduring humiliation and burden, it is finally over.
"In the current situation, we must resolve it quickly."
There can't be any sloppiness, and besides, it was originally the first step in their plan, and there wasn't much else.
"Arrange people to wait and take action during the coronation ceremony."
Now the occasion in the palace where he would not be suspected when he returns is the coronation ceremony of Princess Yingran the day after tomorrow.
This is the best chance if we want to go back directly from the front without making anyone suspicious. For a princess, the coronation is the most important event in her life. No one can find fault with her father's participation in the coronation ceremony.
"Arrange the Fourth Battalion and the Seventh Battalion to prepare to follow me back, and prepare the camp waiting near the palace."
"Yes." Tang Yu responded and left the camp.
Hebrew lowered his head and received a message from his daughter on the mobile phone he was carrying. In the photo, Yingran was standing dignifiedly in a gorgeous dress.
The shining jewelry on her neck was given to Yingran by Hatas on her birthday.
For this granddaughter, Hatas has never been stingy in doting on her.
She grew up in fine clothes and fine food. Even when the intercontinental situation is so chaotic now, Hatas does not want to wrong her granddaughter.
Her coronation ceremony must be held with great splendor.
Hebrew put away his cell phone, turned around and left the camp.
…
The towering century-old tree in the distance looks like it has been growing for more than a hundred years. The height of the trunk alone is five or six meters, and it would take seven or eight adults to surround it.
The branches and leaves on the tree trunks are lush, and small animals such as squirrels and monkeys come and go from time to time.
Even if there are a few people hiding on such dense branches, it is not easy to be discovered.
On the curved tree trunk, a slender and soft girl leaned against the tree, clearly seeing the tent in the distance through the gaps in the thick leaves in front of her.
After talking clearly about the familiar aura on the departing man, Si Zhao chuckled.
After working on it for a long time, it was hidden in this place. It is really easy to find it together.
Fragments of sunlight danced above her head through the gaps between the leaves, like an elf in the dense forest.
After sending the surveyed information to Wen Li, Si Zhao raised his hand and turned into the wind speeding through the mountains, catching up with the pace of the person in front.
"boom!!!!"
The loud noise in the air in the distance made the soldiers moving in the dense forest invariably increase their vigilance.
This movement indicates that the enemy has already found their location.
The man being chased turned around and easily raised his hand to block Si Zhao's attack.
The two of them stood face to face on the tops of two trees. After seeing clearly the appearance of the woman in front of him, he squinted his eyes.
"Who are you?"
Not to mention how strange it is for someone with the same power as them to appear here, this girl's power is probably not inferior to him.
Si Zhao glanced at him, turned around and disappeared into the air.
The man had no intention of chasing her. He stood on the tree and stared at her for a long time. The figure of the little girl turning around seemed familiar.
When did such a person come to this continent
…
In the palace, Wen Li was walking back to Ming'an Hall after coming out of Prince Pei's palace. She lowered her head and thought about something before moving forward.
It was true that the man's appearance was unclear from her mother's memory, but she still recognized those eyes.
She went to Fangxi Town from the Imperial Capital and found the yellowed letter in the mailbox at her door. It was definitely the paper used by King K's royal family.
After taking a few steps forward, a pair of extremely delicate shoes appeared in her sight.
When she raised her head, she saw Jia Tong who had come to her at some point.
"The eldest princess."
Jia Tong had the same gentle smile on her face as always, "Where did you come from? You look very worried."
"Nothing, just taking a walk."
Jia Tong looked at the girl who was about to leave after passing her, and she stopped Wen Li's movement.
"Miss Wen Li, would you like to come with me for a walk? I have something to ask you."
Jiatong received more or less news about what happened last night. Hatas claimed to be feeling unwell and closed the door to no guests.
Yin Sa's tone was also very tight and she couldn't ask anything else.
Now she wants to know what happened last night, so she can only place her hope on Wen Li standing in front of her.
"If the princess doesn't mind." Wen Li turned around after her.
The two of them walked side by side to the library. Jiatong looked at the girl beside him and suddenly laughed.
"Not to mention that Yin Sa likes to be with you, even I like it very much. Being with you feels like being with my sister. It's very cordial and comfortable."
Even the slight curve of the corners of Wen Li's lips were similar to Le Jia's.
After listening to her words, Wen Li only focused his attention on the ring on her hand, "The eldest princess seems to like this ring very much and never leaves it?"
Jiatong lowered her head and touched the jade ring on her index finger. The woman's eyes were gentle, "My sister and I both have this ring. Wearing it, it feels like she has always been by my side and has never been separated from me. Yingran will be crowned soon." It’s been a long time, I really want my sister to see it too.”
Wen Li saw her look and asked a second question, "How did you meet the prince?"
When she mentioned her husband, the smile on Jia Tong's face became softer, "He is a personal guard in the palace. He does things very decently. He has been with me for personal protection for a while. The relationship between us is not that vigorous, nor It’s a steady stream.”
"Didn't you encounter any obstacles?"
Jia Tong shook his head, "There must be obstacles. The royal family members lined up to come to my father to oppose us. We were also burdened with a lot of pressure, but fortunately we didn't give up on each other and got to where we are today."
The love story of the noble eldest princess and the palace guard has been circulating among the people of K for a while.
The world likes to praise beautiful love, especially love that breaks through worldly prejudices and comes together, which can be praised even more.
"So, does Princess Lejia also know the prince?"
Jia Tong was stunned by this question, and then she shook her head as if she was not sure, "Sister, I think I have met Hebrew, but he was not so eye-catching at that time, sister must be Not too much attention.”
"I heard from the attendant that Prince Hebrew and Princess Lejia had met several times, so I asked a few more questions. I'm sorry."
"It doesn't matter. I'm very happy that someone can talk to me about this."
After the two chatted for a while, Wen Li politely said goodbye to Jia Tong.
"Thank you, Princess, for answering my question. I hope I didn't cause any trouble to you."
Jia Tong chuckled and said goodbye to Wen Li before turning and leaving.
Watching Jia Tong's leaving figure, Wen Li stretched out his hand. The ring in his hand reflected in the sunlight, slowly gathering shadows on the ground.
