Brando coughed slightly.

Speaking seriously, he really doesn't know how to start this topic. Is it necessary to tell these people directly that the empire's supreme has betrayed the empire and led the wolf into the room? But what is she trying to do? A person always needs motivation to do things. If the Queen of Silver invites Qiao Gendigang and Toquinin to invade, just to eliminate the dissidents in the country, don't say that others don't believe it, I am afraid that he himself will not. Believe, how naive and naive it must be politically to do this kind of thing

Unless the Silver Queen tolerates the empire losing a large area forever, in exchange for her throne, this idea sounds very attractive to some lunatics, but it is actually very ridiculous, because that means she must let the whole piece Things have become an eternal secret, otherwise her throne is like a castle in the air. More importantly, whether it is a Qiaogendigang or a Lion can threaten her to submit to it. With the temperament of the Silver Queen, it will never be possible. Such a choice.

No matter how crazy the Queen is, it is undeniable that she is an emperor who has been in a huge empire for ten years. No one dares to treat her as a fool.

Brando thought about it, and felt that there was only one possibility that Qiyara said.

That is, Her Majesty the Queen has the supreme power among Qiao Gendigang and Toquinine Lions, so of course she can use her direct line to protect the king, but this idea sounds like a fantasy. Brando thought for a while before finally speaking: "Qiyara, I still have to confirm, why do you think it is'her'?"

Except for Qiara and Roman, almost everyone else did not understand who Brando called the so-called'she', but Qiara hummed confidently: "It's not easy, I should say I've told you before, about what that stupid dwarf did, as long as I have a little bit of IQ, you will understand that there are only a few people in the entire empire that can do this. How many people are there?"

"The Supreme One in the Temple of Flame, the Prime Minister, the several dukes, plus that woman."

"That's it—"

There seemed to be a cold wind passing through the woodland, hovering above the forest canopy like a ghost, making a whining sound, Qiara paused for a moment before continuing to speak.

"But I have eliminated the first few one by one. The Prime Minister will certainly not expose his daughter to his shortcomings. First of all, he does not need to take this stinky move. This is done to clear the suspicion, but what is the point of him doing this, let the suspicion fall on the woman? This is unnecessary, because this is too far-fetched, no one will believe it, just like you are not now Would you like to believe it?"

Brando nodded, this is indeed the case.

Qiyala smiled contemptuously: "This is the inherent rigid thinking of your humans. They will think-how could she betray, why she betrayed herself, it is ridiculous, most people rarely think about this: Empire It’s hers, but not hers."

What are you humans? Brando couldn't help but roll his eyes. This little girl is good at everything, but sometimes she's too pretentious, she's just like the Bugas. It's a pity that this guy doesn't become a wizard. Her head and character. But thinking so, he still had to play the role of that'stupid human', otherwise the respectable Miss Qiyara would not be able to come on stage next: "So respectable Miss Qiyara, What do you think?"

Qiara was obviously very satisfied. She squinted her eyes with pride. Suddenly, she felt that this guy was not so obtrusive. She showed her pointed canine teeth and replied: "Just simply imagine another situation. Next, the truth as we know is very difficult to happen. In other words, whether it is the highest person in the Temple of Flame, the prime minister of the empire, or the woman, most people will not easily doubt it. To them, they will not even have similar associations. The betrayers of the empire cannot be the above three in any case. Therefore, for them, doing nothing is the best cover-assuming they are really Words of the traitor."

"But they just did it. Does this mean that the traitor is actually among those grand dukes?" Qiara shook her head: "Perhaps it is possible that before we met Ms. Misril, the giant The distance between the dragon and the mortal is like the distance between the mortal and the ant. I know that the dukes have no connection with the dragon. On the contrary, in the Cruz Empire, I know that there is a person who has a deep connection with the dragon— "

Everyone's gazes subconsciously fell on Missreil, the giant dragon lady present. The latter smiled awkwardly and said that it was true, but she didn't know if she agreed with the first half of the sentence or the second half of the sentence.

"Perhaps you are right, but your statement is also applicable to'her'." Brando asked at this time, that's the case, because if according to Qiara, these three people On the contrary, Her Majesty’s suspicion is the least, because everyone’s first suspicion is absolutely impossible to point to her, so she doesn’t have to want to cover it, isn’t it? In fact, Brando had faintly felt at this time that the truth was probably as Qiyara said, especially the fact that the other party mentioned the relationship between'that woman' and the dragon clan, which was an irrefutable reason.

Qiyala shook her head: "She was not trying to disturb her sight, but to make excuses. Could it be that she really hoped that the Qiaogendigang could reach the Rusita of the Imperial City together with the Lion? You and I all know that. Impossible. After all, the empire is an empire. Even if it is one enemy three, it will not retreat steadily. Everything here is just to conceal people’s eyes, or just a curtain opened. The real action of the Queen must be In the imperial capital."

"The first thing she has to deal with is the power of the old prime minister, then the Temple of Flame, or both, but her enemies are too strong after all, so she must first call them paralyzed. It is indeed difficult for ordinary people to guess this. , Even if I didn’t know the details of this conspiracy, I wouldn’t have thought that she would dare to do it, would I? The White Legion is heading to the Evergreen Passage in Violet Valley, the Red Legion is fighting against the Wind Elves, and the Black Legion is even more so. In Ludwig in the north, there is only the Blue Legion near the imperial capital."

"The Blue Legion is not a direct line of Her Majesty the Queen, so it can let the nobles relax their vigilance."

"The question is, where is their captain Veronica now?"

Qiyala asked softly, the voice lingering in everyone's ears like a curse.

Shire seemed to have only reacted for a long time, and asked leisurely: "This... I heard it right. The two seem to be discussing the Queen of the Empire. You are talking about the so-called traitor of the Empire in Rogers' words. Her Majesty herself?"

As soon as he said these words, Misril was okay, she just frowned slightly, and the Duke's daughter Ouni and Princess Magdal showed incredulous looks at the same time.

"How is this possible?" Eunice said subconsciously. She originally wanted to say that this is absolutely impossible, but considering Brando's previous actions, it seemed that nothing was aimless, which affected her invisibly. Judgment. But even so, it is a fantasy to make her believe that the Queen of Silver will betray her empire. She carefully recalled the previous Qiyara and Brando's questions and answers, and realized that the other party was trying to betray her. Explain the reason for this yourself.

But so what

She still felt a little unbelievable, the key is, what benefits can Her Majesty get through this

Could she still get more supreme power than it is now

She wants to completely destroy the Temple of Flame, and let the Cruz people's struggle for the right to teach for thousands of years to disappear. This sounds like they are killing themselves. Not to mention the rebound of the Temple of Flame itself, the other three temples will not. Will sit idly by.

So apart from this reason, what else can make her act so crazy—yes, crazy, only this word can describe the actions of the Queen at this moment—if what Brando and Chiara are saying is true if. At this moment, the Duke daughter was caught in the same confusion as Brando. The source of this confusion was that although they found clues that the Queen might have done so, the problem was that they could never think of each other. What is the motive.

The only explanation at the moment can only be that the Queen has been completely crazy.

But this explanation is obviously not satisfactory.

As for Eco and Princess Magdal, they only frowned slightly. The former has a blind faith in Brando. Brando said that Her Majesty has betrayed the empire. Then Her Majesty must have betrayed the empire. He only needs to consider why she betrayed the empire; while the latter wants more, Marg Princess Dahl pursed her lips and said nothing, but she could see that she was willing to believe Brando, but she also felt that this fact was a little unacceptable for the time being.

She was silent for a long time before she asked, "Is the Temple of Flames in danger now?"

"I don't know this." Qiyala replied, "I can only guess that Her Majesty the Queen would do it. As for the result of her doing this, it may be a conspiracy, or it may be self-defeating, but it is foreseeable. All this work, that is what astrologers should do."

She added bitterly: "Although they have never predicted it accurately, they will always give you an ambiguous answer."

This unwilling tone makes it easy to think of when an astrologer might have offended this eldest lady.

After asking this question, Princess Magdal fell silent again.

Among all the people, only the non-commissioned officer from Yanilasu asked, "Everyone, suppose—I mean, suppose that what the Count Lord said is true. What should we do now." He saw Brando throw at him. With his gaze, he hurriedly saluted the latter, and then continued: "After this period of time, everyone should have established a certain understanding of each other. I believe that Lord Earl has no need to lie to us on this matter, Lord Earl We are all aware of the behavior of the people, not to mention that this is a guess in itself, even if it is a guess, it is possible to happen."

"So, I mean if the situation really develops as expected, how should we respond?"

Brando glanced at the sergeant in surprise. He didn't understand how the other party suddenly said something good for him. In fact, this is not a good thing, but now he is a little accustomed to these Eruin traditions. The nobleman and himself sang the opposite stage, and for a time someone was on his side, but he was a little uncomfortable.

But for this question, he actually had the answer in his mind long ago, and he called these people here to give them a bottom in their hearts, so as not to get confused.

He couldn't believe those Cruz people who were in the game. Now he can believe only these noble daughters and young masters who he brought out from Eruin. This is also a helpless fact.

He thought for a while and replied: "The answer to this question is actually very simple-first we have to confirm our identity, we are Eruin's envoy."

It's okay for Brando not to say that. When he said this, everyone's faces immediately showed mixed expressions. Except for a few people snickering, most of them looked a little weird—mostly thinking about it. The Lord Earl can still remember this identity, so to speak, they are envoys. But the problem is that what they did this way was like what the envoys should do? Those who knew it were good, but those who didn’t know thought that the group from Eruin was a band of thieves, burning, killing and looting all the way—even though they were all targeted. It is a nobleman. Of course, they didn't dare to say this. This Lord Earl was always arbitrary. According to him, they were a lesson to the empire from the glory of the reigning kingdom, although it seemed to take the opportunity to vent their breath.

But at least there is one thing everyone is convinced, that is, as Brando said, the empire really seems to be unable to teach him, and now it seems that instead of teaching him, they have to become heroes of the empire. The trend-if Her Majesty is not crazy.

The other people were not right, and nodded vigorously. Only the Duke’s daughter Ouni didn’t have this habit. She asked: "Master Earl said it simply. You mean that the Cruz people’s war has nothing to do with us, which means it’s right now. For us, there are two choices, it's nothing more than to move on, or to go back and return to Eruin."

"I'm afraid it won't work to retreat," Charles shook his head: "The people behind are Qiao Gendigang. We finally broke through, how can we go back again."

"So the only way left is to go forward?" Roman asked.

"Almost," Brando nodded: "But the plan has changed a little. The idea that we wanted to trap Luen before now seems a bit unrealistic. After all, there are three-headed dragons on the other side. They are there, no matter how high it is. The city walls are also ashes under the flames. We have to find a way to take a boat from Ruen to Metz or the Cape Bay area." He glanced at Ms. Dragon and continued: "Our immediate priority is to get out of this right and wrong. Land, send Ms. Misril out to report to the Dragon Clan. As for the rest, we are no longer able to control."

"But how can they let us go easily? It's a three-headed dragon," Eunice questioned. She looked at Misrael and asked presumptuously: "Ms. Misrael, I asked very rudely. In a word, can you still fight in your current state?"

Miss Ruier shook her head: "I'm afraid it will be difficult, little girl."

"We don't necessarily have to face the dragon queen. The elves have a natural affinity emblem on their bodies, and they dare not act rashly, but I guess they will go to Luen Harbor to burn the boat ahead of time. This is a trick that dragons often play." Brando had considered this question a long time ago and replied confidently.

"Burning the ship, that's even worse. If the dragons really burned the ship in the harbor, wouldn't we have to keep Luen trapped?" The fat Avram asked with a sad face when he heard the news. road.

"Can we feel Asaph first?" Marjorie asked further.

Brando shook his head. The army in the north was already full of Qiaogendigang. It was obvious that the Cruz Empire was steadily retreating. To break through the encirclement and get to Asaph before the lizard king, this idea can only be thought of when dreaming. Just thinking about it.

He replied: "Don't worry, the Dragon Queen and the others can't burn all the ships. As long as they reach Luen, we have a chance, so now we have to think about how to reach Luen."

Everyone looked at the Lord Earl strangely, not understanding where his confidence came from, but now they have gradually developed such a habit-since Brando said that the Queen of Dragons can’t burn the ship, they should be She can't burn it anymore. Eunice said: "Since the Earl said that the Dragon Queen and the others will not show up in person, they will definitely send the Qiaogendigang people to intercept us. We need to be careful about the Qiaogendigang patrol."

"I think it's not difficult," Marjorie said after thinking about it: "Qiaogendigang's primary goal must be the Asaph Fortress. It is impossible to mobilize too many people to find us. We just need to plan ahead. This route, along the northern edge of Rokozy Heights, the region with the weakest force in Qiao’s roots, will not cause much trouble, and according to the information collected by Rogers, the Port of Ruen should not have fallen into Qiao. The hand of the root Gang."

"After leaving the port, which route do we take? To Metz or Cape Bay?" Dilfieri said for the first time now.
