Welling's figure appeared again, already in the hidden valley and not on the vehicle.
He slowly walked back towards the vehicle while gathering his thoughts.
For the Ono family to plan and execute the attack on the island that year, Welling was not expecting it, but it was reasonable.
This is completely consistent with Welling and Shou Gong’s previous analysis, as well as Victor’s speculation.
It is estimated that even the Ono family themselves did not expect that the mantis stalked the cicada and the oriole followed, and then failed again, and in the end there was an unexpected gain.
Although not all twelve children, getting two of them for no reason in the end can be regarded as a kind of compensation.
But the world is so strange, because the private quarrel between these two children, the Ono family and the Murong family was known to the top officials of the Dongri Kingdom, and the evidence was conclusive, which led to the destruction of the entire family.
Is this considered the two children taking revenge on the innocent people who took care of their group of children on the island?
Correspondingly, don't the Abe family in Asakawa City also have two children from the Murong family? Then, the Abe family must have been on the blacklist of the country's top officials.
The state does not move the Abe family. On the one hand, Abe Uchiyama is indeed a hard nut to crack. On the other hand, it is also due to the defense needs of Asakawa Castle.
Wei Ling sighed, wondering how Murong Rendong would feel when he found out that the mastermind behind the attack on the island was actually the Ono family of Lumoto City that they were trying to win over.
The last remaining question is, who turned the tide after the Ono family succeeded and returned the child to the Murong family with three federal "Manta"-class vehicles and numerous sergeant uniforms?
The most direct way is to ask Murong Rendong.
As for whether to continue to Luben City to search for the remaining members of the Ono family, and to explore the whereabouts of Yu Nie and Mao Li, Wei Ling was a little confused.
The current security situation around Asakawa Castle is already quite serious, and as the capital of the Tonichi Kingdom, the situation on the periphery of Shikamoto Castle must be even more tense.
In addition to the large number of Ying warlocks who escaped from the three breached islands and gathered around Luben City, there were also thousands of Xixuan mages gathering. Wei Ling did not think that he would be able to rest easy just because he could enter the world of Yuanling.
Previously, Abe Uchiyama was able to suppress him because the opponent had no helpers. If there were several warlocks of the same ability, Wei Ling would be blinded.
But Wei Ling was a bit unwilling to give up the search and go back home.
After thinking about it, he returned to the vehicle.
Shou Gong and Li Lingyou were well prepared for Wei Ling's return so soon. When they saw that there was no joy in Wei Ling's face, they knew something was wrong:
"How about it, Master, are they two in a bad situation?"
"Not only is it bad, it's probably something unexpected!"
Welling packed up all the information and threw it to the two of them.
The two of them finally had a more comprehensive grasp of this incident, and fell into depression and sadness for a while.
Wei Ling sighed:
"Manpower is sometimes poor, so we can only do our best and obey fate. Shou Gong, you will package and upload all the information to the Procuratorate, including all the situations we saw in Lubenyuan.
According to the standards of the Ministry of Supervision, although there are still some details that need to be added in this investigation, the broad framework is already in place.
We need to discuss our subsequent options. Should we go to the outskirts of Lumoto City to see if we can find the remaining members of the Ono family and explore the whereabouts of Yu Ni and Mao Li?
It is better to return to Degao City and ask Murong Rongdong who returned those children to the Murong family. "
Li Lingyou thought for a moment and shook his head slightly:
“Since Dongri State has purged and destroyed the Ono family, they are more familiar with the situation than we are, and the core personnel who should be purged are most likely gone.
As outsiders, we don’t know whether there are any remaining personnel on the other side. Even if we find non-core personnel, since they are not core personnel, we will not know the situation.
Therefore, I guess it will be difficult to gain anything. "
Welling nodded:
"This statement is reliable."
So the three of them unanimously decided to return to Degao City first.
Considering that the three of them destroyed Bangguo's small reconnaissance vehicle and killed a mid-level warlock from the opponent when they came over the day before yesterday, Dongri Bangguo's blockade of the strait will inevitably be tighter in the past two days.
In order not to cause more trouble and make full use of the "Blue Bird" vehicle's maneuverability in adverse environments such as night to carry out defense penetration, they decided to return at night.
…
Xixuan Federation, Patbon City.
In the bend on the west bank of the Soul River, the Pope, who looks like former President Angus, stands in the water of the Soul River.
The cold river water on his feet truly reflected his long-cherished wish to wash his feet in the Soul River.
He raised his head and looked at the towering triangular metal tower, with a sarcastic smile on his lips.
After strolling ashore and entering the square paved with obsidian, Lord Gregor lightly stamped his feet. The moisture on his feet dried immediately, and the pair of comfortable boots had already adhered to his feet.
This pair of luxurious leather boots has accompanied him through thousands of mountains and rivers in the Federation, but it has not become dilapidated in the slightest.
After all, the noble steps of the Pope will not really be stained with mud.
He walked towards the magnificent temple.
Taking one step forward, the dust all over his body dissipated.
As he progressed, his chest straightened up, his fat body became more symmetrical, his body shape became slightly taller, his face gradually changed, and wrinkles formed little by little.
As he took the last step into the temple, the familiar face of the Pope appeared.
In the empty temple, triangular beams of sunlight cast onto the floor inside the empty temple, making the obsidian ground shimmer with fluorescence.
Sitting on the stool under the huge hanging emblem is naturally the old man wearing a black hooded robe. He seems to be sitting in this place forever.
The Great Divine Attendant Salozi, whose face was covered with wrinkles as dry as orange peels, was not moved by the arrival of the Pope.
His clear and bright eyes seemed to see through everything. With a hint of curiosity, he looked at the Pope who was gradually approaching him. He raised his head slightly and finally smiled:
"My lord, what are you looking for?"
Gregor was condescending, frowned slightly, lowered his eyes, and stared at Sarazi:
"Saluozi, the Great Divine Attendant, with your status, you should not face the Pope like this."
Sarazi nodded:
“The servants of God’s Lord will only prostrate themselves in the dust before Him, and will only pay respect to His only spokesperson in this world!”
Gregory was silent for a moment, but he no longer struggled with the etiquette issues of Sarazi and sighed sincerely:
"If it weren't for these encounters, I wouldn't have seen that your ability is so powerful."
"It's not that I'm strong, it's that His glory never ignores every devout believer!"
Gregory was silent again.
After a long time, the old man with dark green eyes sighed:
“Saluozi, since you see so clearly, and since everything is His arrangement, don’t you think that my current situation is also His will?
When the water of the Soul River is still flowing eastward, and when the snow on the Shenzhu Plateau has never melted, then neither I, Myrobalan, nor Angus will be annihilated by the wind. Who is the final ultimate body? Can you grasp His will? "
Sarazi finally lowered his gaze and stretched out his hand to make a salute gesture:
“He said you should not presume to guess His intentions.”
"Well, didn't you ask me what I'm looking for? I'm looking for a person, a warlock from the Eastern World. Considering that your side is the closest to that side, there may be some information."
Sarazi raised his head and looked at Gregor.
"It's like this. He should be a young man with multiple original magic abilities. There is a high probability that he is a new generation of the empire with all five spiritual powers."
Grigory frowned, but still did not tell Dimitri's guess to Sarazi. It would be bad if it interfered with the judgment.
Sarazi thought for a moment, and the young and sad face of that very special "unfaithful person" in his memory seemed to appear in front of his eyes.
"I remember there was such a person, clean, pure, with multiple spiritual attributes. I didn't know his name and identity. I came to Pat State with the Empire's Western Expeditionary Army. The only thing I was sure of was that he was a believer! "
Instantly receiving the image information thrown by Sarazi, Gregor's deep eyes suddenly flashed.
He had an intuition that this should be the genius that Harile mentioned.
Without any reason, Gregory had this prediction.
Gregory turned around and took a step forward.
He crossed hundreds of miles in one step and stood on the top of a snow-capped mountain on the Shenzhu Plateau.
The strong wind blew his gorgeous robes.
He looked eastward and made up his mind.
…
A hidden valley outside Asakawa Castle.
Wei Ling and others, who were determined to return at night, had been waiting for a long time.
As the sun sets in the west, the Blue Bird vehicle travels lightly through the valley, passing over the rocks and passing through the forest tops. Various warning devices are turned on to avoid all random Bangguo reconnaissance vehicles.
If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive at Caolu Strait when night falls, and return to Degao City under the cover of night.
When the vehicle arrived at Kusuka Strait, night had already fallen.
The gecko hovered the vehicle over the very low sea, hesitating:
“Along this side of the strait, there are many small and medium-sized vehicles on alert.
However, we can rely on the speed of the Blue Bird to quickly break through the blockade by flying at a height much higher than theirs, or at ultra-low altitude.
However, if there are a large number of high-level warlocks on those vehicles, they may not be able to escape. "
"It's not surprising. We just made a surprise attack the day before yesterday. The other party discovered that there were mid-level warlocks and reconnaissance vehicles that failed to return. They would inevitably increase their investigation efforts. They might misjudge that the Murong clan was doing pre-war testing, so it is inevitable that they would not Making a fuss out of a molehill.”
Li Lingyou was a little confused:
"I don't recommend that we return from high altitudes. The air currents over the strait are complicated and thunderstorms are frequent. I'm worried that too high an altitude will cause the vehicle to encounter unexpected events.
If we fly at ultra-low altitude and high speed, the performance and protection of the Blue Bird should be beyond the opponent's, and the opponent's vehicle should not be able to keep up.
If there is an attack from thermal weapons, the Blue Bird's protection is sufficient, and I can also help interfere with various warheads. However, I am afraid of attacks from magnetic storm energy weapons. "
Shou Gong also put forward an opinion:
"How about we go northwest for a few hundred kilometers, fly out of the strait area, and then return south to Degao City?"
Wei Ling thought for a moment and shook his head slightly:
"Actually, it's not that complicated. They don't know exactly how the lost reconnaissance vehicle crashed. They are focusing on the southwest side, guarding the direction of Degao City.
We are behind what they subconsciously ignore. If we make a direct attack, we will definitely make them panic.
When we encounter medium-sized vehicles or vehicles with the opponent's commander, you attack the opponent with heavy firepower, and the opponent will inevitably defend with all its strength.
Then, I will attack the vehicle and try to make the noise as loud as possible, which will inevitably attract more firepower. Then, you can take the opportunity to break out, and then I will follow. "
The three of them looked at each other and nodded.
