A platoon of pirates serving as Ayla's bodyguard were groping the plains. They hit every inch of soil with the bottom of their stone spears, and lifted up every inch of haystacks and rocks with their hands, as if they were looking for hiding insects.
"Look more carefully!" Ella said, "That guy Dust is good at disguise. He might be drunk and hiding in some pit. Dig him out for me!"
In response to Ella's shout, a pirate turned his stone spear upside down and thrust it hard into the ground. Ella rushed over anxiously and kicked the pirate hard on the butt:
"What are you doing? That's my master! He's not a real spy! Are you really planning to kill him?"
Ella only learned that Tesosomok and Xueqi Peipei were unconscious on land more than 700 meters away from the camp in the early morning. Before that, she deliberately pretended to be ill to avoid Xue Qi Peipei's ears and eyes, and she sneaked out to talk to Lily. However, because Xue Qi Peipei had taken Lily and others to a prisoner of war concentration camp, her action was in vain. Shortly after returning to the camp, the fire was put out and the commotion stopped. The report of Lily's escape from the camp finally reached her, along with the information that Tesosomok and Xueqi Pepe were in coma.
A group of unconscious people had been carried back to the camp to rest. But there was no news about Dast and he disappeared without a trace.
After a fruitless search, Ella returned to the camp in despair, staring blankly at the rough map in front of her.
Lily escaped, in other words, she had completed her investigation mission. Presumably, this place will be attacked by the pirate kingdom soon, and she, Ella, may also be regarded as an enemy by the pirate kingdom. She was unable to help Tesozomoc and Hestein reach an alliance, she was unable to assist the pirate kingdom in attacking Aztlan, and she did not even complete the original plan to trade here.
Nesa Hualcoyotl's attempt to hijack her northward movement disrupted all her plans. She doesn't even have an army that can obey his command now - in order to avoid conflict with Hestein, she left the army near Mvaraniga. Amy was also sent back because of her health problems. Now that Dast is missing and Tesosomok is in a coma, she is truly alone.
Of course, the lords of the various states who came with Tesosomok should still be willing to listen to her. But it was impossible for her to command the troops to fight against the Pirate Kingdom, nor to let these lords turn their guns to deal with the Sun King - the failure to ambush the Sun King had already explained everything.
Even she didn't know what she could do or what she should do at this time.
About evening Tesosomok came in—alone and unsupported by anyone. The serious injury that Alfred inflicted on him had miraculously healed just last night.
It was so quiet that Ella didn't even notice Tesosomok's arrival. She continued to focus on the map, sighing and shaking her head. Tesosomok stood and stared at Ella for a while, then dropped a handful of maquawit on the ground with a bang, and Ella woke up and raised her head.
"Tesosomok? Your injury...?"
Tesosomok shook his head: "I don't know why it's fine. But I don't remember anything about last night."
After saying that, he walked forward swaggeringly and sat next to Ella. Perhaps because the injury had finally healed, there was an extraordinary magnanimity in his steps that belonged to a king.
"I've heard everything." He said in a deep voice, "What should we do next?"
"Negotiations failed. The Northern Alliance's scouts have withdrawn. I think we will be attacked by the enemy next." Ayla looked at Tesosomok, "And, I'm afraid it will be the enemy's main attack direction."
"The one who has to withstand the enemy's main force is not me, but the Sun King." Tesosomok waved his hand, "If the enemy wants to attack here, then we should retreat in advance."
"Retreat?" Ella was slightly surprised. "For the Aztlan people, isn't this the case of you escaping from the battlefield? And Xue Qipepe will not allow us to do this."
"The enemy has come to attack. If we retreat, that is called fleeing. Now that the enemy has not appeared, if we retreat, that is just
It's just a strategic move. As for Xue Qi Pei Pei——" Tessosomomok snorted, "What do I care about him?"
"Who said we should retreat?"
Xue Qipei's voice sounded outside the camp. He and Tesosomok, two elf-level warriors, woke up at the same time.
Accompanied by a group of leopard warriors, Xue Qi Peipei entered the camp with great enthusiasm. He pressed his hand on the table in front of Tesosomoc and Ella, and roared loudly: "Tesosomoc! The Sun King asked us to stand here so that you can resist the enemy's attack. Now the enemy wants to Come this way, isn't that the time for us to fight in a bloody battle. If you retreat now, what are you here to do?"
"The main force of Aztlan has been concentrated by the Sun King in his own hands, so naturally it is up to him to resist the enemy's main force. I can't resist it." Tesozomoc replied calmly, "Xueqi Pepe You can resist if you want, and you can mobilize your own subordinates at will, but I have to take away my subordinates and the troops of the lords of the various countries who came with me."
"Tessosomok!"
"How can we call it an escape before we are ready for battle? And Xue Qi Peipei, have you forgotten one thing - I am the lord of Tlacopan State, and I am Tlatoani who is equal to the Sun King!"
When he said the second half of the sentence, Tesosomok suddenly stared. Before he could finish the words, he lifted the table in front of him and punched Xue Qipei!
Xue Qipeipei never expected that Tesosomok, who had always been submissive, would suddenly attack him at this time. In desperation, he stretched out his hand to block him, but was knocked backwards by the force of Tesosomok's punch. roll. Tesosomok jumped out from behind the table, his finally healed fists clenching.
Xue Qipeipei quickly rolled up from the ground and shouted, "Tesosomok! What do you want to do? Behind me is the Sun King!"
Before he finished speaking, Tesosomok had already rushed in front of him. Without saying a word, he punched him in the face again. Xue Qi Peipei had no choice but to resist. In an instant, the two sides had exchanged punches more than twenty times. After a violent vibration comparable to a trebuchet hitting a city wall, Xue Qi Pepe vomited blood and knelt down in front of Tesosomok. .
Tesosomok wiped the sweat off his face, turned his head and looked at the Leopard Warrior who came with Xue Qipei:
"I put him on death row for disrespecting Tratoani. Who objects?"
No one dared to speak in front of the magic power of the Second Age.
So Tesosomok turned his body and strode back to Ella. Even Ella was surprised by Tesosomok's sudden transformation: "Tesosomok, you..."
"Are you surprised?
