Chapter 362
At dawn, Blood Skeleton Valley Camp.
The Knight and Legion soldiers of the church packed up their outfits silently, and moved towards each other in a tacit understanding. They left the camp in their respective directions. There was no sound from the beginning to the end, only an empty place was left. Camp.
Even if they have fought side by side, the estrangement between the two sides will not be eased much by the reconciliation of the two commanders-a few days of matching can absolutely trust each other. There is no such good thing in this world.
The Knights of the Church of the Holy Cross still look down on the soldiers from the south, and the Legion of the Sackland Empire also has its own pride. It is harder to make both sides bow their heads than heavenly ascension.
Standing on the icy snow below their feet, the Legion soldiers, who were struggling in the early morning roaring cold wind, carried their suitcases, biting bit by bit on black bread harder than ice, arranged in a neat formation. Head towards the east side of the Blood Skeleton Valley.
Grabbing the rein in his hand, the indifferent Edward glanced at the black hair wizard who was also silent and contemplative on his side. He hesitated very much, but reason told him that this was correct.
Never do superfluous things, never intervene in your irreversible situation, and finally...
Never be stupid.
"I thought you would go to Bluff Mountain with His Royal Highness Brandon." The night watchman calmly opened the mouth and said: "When His Royal Highness commanded me, he had to admit that he was a little surprised, but …Also as it should be by rights, after all, one’s power cannot change anything."
"Yes, one’s power can’t change anything..."
Contemplation The absent black hair wizard murmured to himself: "But if he has thousands of people willing to die for him, it's a different matter."
Edward turned his head and deliberately avoided it. With those dark eyes, he certainly knew who Loren was talking about: "What did you find?"
"Yes, it's not...No, it should be just a hunch." came back to his senses, Loren shook the head: "I always feel that we seem to have overlooked some very important clues-and that Connold, what is his real plan?"
Like Turning his head instinctively, Loren frowned looked towards the indifferent night watchman: "You really told me everything?"
"You asked two questions, which one do you want to ask? "
"Of course it’s best to answer both."
Such an almost "rogue" attitude made the night watchman sighed and looked up ahead calmly: "First of all, the first one He is impossible to tell me, because I am an insignificant pawn, I can only know what I need to know."
"As for the second one... I have already told you what I can tell you, Loren ——I don’t want to repeat it again, but if I have a choice, I really don’t want to intervene in this matter, do you understand?"
Loren shrugged clearly, apparently Edward didn’t intend to say more what.
So all he has is the information on hand-Loren hates hypotheses, but the current situation has to let him do it himself.
Assuming that everything after they arrived at the fortress of Duojieshan was in Connold’s expectation, what would he do next?
Or the assassin who was "buyed" by Connold, who would that fanatic be?
It is certain that this person is definitely not Chief Knight Naze, because his identity and position are too conspicuous and extremely easy to be exposed, and if the murder is caused by an accident, it will not end well-most importantly, like People of Nazer's status are not easily persuaded by this kind of "secondary" excuse.
So, was the murderer one of the twelve Knights of the Church?
Loren just thought it over in his head, and quickly gave up the idea.
There is indeed such a probability, and these Knights who have taken the "vow" do have the possibility of assassinating Brandon in front of the giant dragon. That kind of unreasonable power, Loren is very one-on-one. It's hard to say whether we can beat them.
But in fact, there are only twelve people in Knight in the church. Once someone leaves Nazer, they will find it immediately. As a result, Connold has to bear the probability of being an enemy of Holy Cross Church; someone like him will not let him Go and carry this scapegoat by yourself, otherwise, why not just do it in Duanjieshan?
No, there must be a more secretive candidate, there must be an "assassin" who is unknown but can be tempted and used by him, and will not be discovered afterwards.
An existence that has been subconsciously ignored by oneself.
"What did you think of?" the indifferent night watchman tentatively asked.
"Only a little..." Loren squinted slightly and lightly sighed:
"Although I don't want to admit it, but...maybe I still underestimated the Prince of Sackland. "
Edward glanced at him from the corner of his gaze: "It's nothing,'Never underestimate a Desalion'-this sentence is not without reason, in Long Wang You are not the first or the last to suffer from the Family clan."
"Besides...do you really need to worry about these things?"
Loren raised his head alertly, and slowly looked towards the night watchman beside him:
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing, just think you seem to care too much about Bran Your Highness is now, and it is very inconsistent with your performance in Eboden." Edward shook his head: "You have come to the north, only one step away from Niederhogg; Brandon Dessalion's fate and What does life and death have to do with you?"
The black hair wizard didn't answer, and the expression looking towards Edward was getting more and more confused, even a bit weird.
"Edward, I need you to answer my question truthfully...
At the guard tower, you said that Connold once ordered you to provide all actions to the'assassin' Convenience." Loren narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Have you done that?"
The night watchman did not look at him, and coldly opened the mouth and said:" Loren, I have told you everything I can tell you."
Such a reply is no different from the default!
"So...the division proposal you made was actually Connaught's plan?"
After a glance at each other, Edward simply chose to remain silent.
Next moment, the surprise on Loren's face gradually receded, and the corners of his mouth slowly conjured a very ironic arc, and the dark pupils stared at the night watchman's expression.
"pa!" Edward, without looking back, pressed Loren's shoulder: "Don't do stupid things. I told you how dangerous Connold is. It's time to let go, Loren."
"That's right, he must be invincible with your help!"
"It's as if I still have a choice." Edward, who is not angry, is still calm Opened the mouth and said: "even more how, we don't know who the assassin is, all the church troops have been transferred away, they are impossible to get in touch with His Royal Highness Brandon!"
Loren He lowered his head slightly, his complexion was extremely ugly.
Calm, calm... Edward has done nothing wrong, and he is already doing his best to help himself. At this time, it doesn't make any sense to blame the other party.
Some clues are needed, just a little hint.
Forcibly calm Loren raised his pupils and looked towards the night watchman: "Do you have any guesses?"
"If it is now, just like you-I can only Guessed that assassin may not be in the church’s army, or he was buried very deeply."
Edward calmly opened the mouth and said: "But if it’s not among the twelve church Knights Who could be any of them? Or maybe he deliberately kept his name incognito and hid in the church army?"
"No, if this were the case, he would have been spotted." Loren shook his head and vetoed it. In response to the night watchman’s speculation, muttered in a low voice: "It must be someone who has appeared long ago, someone who can conspire with Connold and is ignored by us, and..."
The words are not over yet. , Loren stared wide-eyed suddenly!
Yes, isn't there such a person who is always subconsciously ignored by himself?
I arrived at the Fortress of Broken Boundary Mountain before myself;
I am extremely familiar with His Royal Highness Brandon and myself;
Having the power of oath, the strength is not small Look, and is the Knight who is loyal to the Holy Cross;
and will never be discovered by anyone in Holy Cross Church, because they don't know it at all, and may never even notice the existence of this person.
"Knight, the guard of Farnesis..." Loren slightly startled, and everything seemed to be clear in an instant:
"He is the'assassin' who conspired with Connold—— !"
