Perona glanced at the bearded man from time to time, obviously feeling resentful of his previous behavior.
This made the other four people feel embarrassed and a little on pins and needles. They were too embarrassed to put the meat in their mouths after it was cooked.
As the captain, the bearded man was riddled with complaints from his teammates.
I just like to pretend to be a senior to others, look at the bad things you do. .
After dealing with Mo Bei's questions, the bearded man tried to ease the awkward situation, turning the barbecue fork in his hand and saying:
"I have to say, I have never had such delicious barbecue before. Just now I wanted to come all the way over to see what is so delicious."
His partner turned away silently when he heard this, cursing this idiot in his heart.
What you said was as if we came to your door because we were hungry for something to eat. .
Mo Bei kept asking about the situation of the conflict between bears and wolves, which made these people feel a little unusual. Generally speaking, few outsiders were so concerned about the details.
The situation in the western border was there, and they had no reason to hide it. In addition, they were entertaining them with delicious food and drinks, so they just asked and said whatever they wanted, and there was no lack of resentment in their words.
Ned and the others frowned when they heard that the two families were scheming in the western border. In order to strengthen their own power, they competed for resources overtly and covertly, and even delayed the passage of fighter planes several times.
In fact, in the past, they thought that this kind of struggle for power and profit was understandable. After all, it had happened all the time.
From a certain perspective, the people of Sanctuary are still relatively ignorant. Even those who have changed jobs still respect the royal power, and few people would have the idea of replacing it.
Without the support of blood or legal tradition, even if you jump to the stage and say that you are the chosen one, it is no different than making a joke.
However, after they have been hanging out with Mo Bei for a long time, some of their inherent perceptions will inevitably be affected. Sometimes, this impact is even subversive.
Now that they come to understand the specific situation of the western border, they are really confused.
The bearded men sat there for a while, and when they saw that Mo Bei had no intention of asking any more questions, they got up and left, saying they had to go on their way.
Without the outsiders, Akali asked Mo Bei, who was silently meditating:
"What are you going to do?"
Mo Bei scratched his head and sighed softly and said:
"I have no idea at the moment. Let's go. We should be able to enter the use range of the teleportation scroll before dawn. Let's go to Westmarch first and then take a look."
After hearing this, several people also stood up and summoned their spider mounts.
Ned looked at his worried expression and asked:
"I remember you were quite excited when you went to Caldeum last time. Why don't you feel ready for a big fight this time?"
Mo Bei was really confused for a moment and didn't know how to answer. He couldn't say that he knew from the beginning that Kaldim was a big dungeon and that there was a King of Lies that he could use. .
He thought for a while and could only say:
"The level there is too low and boring..."
"Is there anything else in Sanctuary that can excite you?" Ned asked with a smile.
Alvin opened his mouth, stopped talking, and then closed it again.
He originally wanted to say that going to a place like Hot Wind Kiss would only ruin everyone's taste, but in the end he didn't have the courage to make up for it.
Mo Bei looked at the dark sea shrouded in mist and said:
"Don't think that if you are extraordinary, you can do whatever you want in the sanctuary. The status of this world may not be lower than the highest heaven or hell."
"What's the meaning?"
"It's just... I have an intuition that there are some potential secrets in Sanctuary. Maybe you will feel the same after you step into the transcendent world."
Mo Bei recalled the invisible pressure he felt when Blue Star tried to mobilize extraordinary power. In fact, if he felt it carefully, there was also an obscure power here, which was different from the World Stone, although it did not carry any hostility. , but it was also so powerful that it made him fearful.
Alvin shrank his neck when he heard this, feeling a chill running down his spine from Mo Bei's tone.
This feeling is like being kidnapped by children from a neighboring village who ganged up and lied to me that something was following me, which made me feel uncomfortable no matter which way I squatted when I went to the toilet in the middle of the night.
Mo Bei didn't know that this unlucky child had such an experience, so he just smiled when he saw it and did not continue to explain.
Just like what he said, some things will naturally become clear to them after they step into the transcendent realm.
After this training, the six wild giant spiders became obedient and obedient again. Finally, they no longer had to endure the bumps of the assault vehicle. They rode the giant spiders all the way and arrived at the Solan Highlands in the west at dawn.
This is equivalent to the gateway to Westmarch. When Lakdanan attacked the western border under Leoric's order, it was also here that he was violently blocked.
That battle made Khanduras' army realize that even under the incompetent rule of Gastian III, Westmarch still retains the strong legacy left by Rakkis.
Lakdanan felt that insisting on a strong attack would only lead to a lose-lose outcome. Coupled with the unfavorable news coming from the rear, Lakdanan decided to withdraw his troops. After returning to Khanduras, he was forced to personally end the rule of the Mad King. .
Westmar has such a natural barrier, and combined with the deployment of defense in depth, it is definitely a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack.
Although the war at that time focused on individual force, huge armies were still the main body in attacking cities and plundering territory. With the high-end combat capabilities of both sides constraining each other, the form of the war did not actually change much.
Nowadays, this situation has changed, because the number of regular troops controlled by various forces is far less than that of that time, and the role of high-end combat power has been further amplified.
Seriously speaking, now that Mo Bei is a unique extraordinary powerhouse with the title of Grand Duke and a large number of supporters, it is easy to demarcate his own territory.
Especially in the current situation in the West, he even has good reasons to replace him without worrying about the pressure of public opinion.
Although Ned and others, including Serina, didn't say it with their mouths, they had such thoughts in their hearts. However, they also knew that among everyone, Mo Bei was probably the only one who didn't think so, otherwise he wouldn't be so troubled. .
This is the fact. For Mo Bei, there are many ways to make himself happy, but becoming a lord who guards the borders and rules is definitely not among them.
He didn't have any complaints about running around to raise supplies, but if he really took over such a mess like the Western Border, he would have to worry about far more than just the shortage of supplies, and he wouldn't be bothered to death by then.
So he couldn't understand why the two families were fighting here. .
Continue to gallop westward on the Solan Highlands until you see the eastern outpost standing on the hill, even if you have entered the range of using the teleportation scroll to return to Westmarch.
Along the way, the few of them had already gained some understanding of the mountains, rivers and landforms of the western border, but they still ran a little further and arrived at the slightly shabby-looking outpost.
This area is considered a strategic location in the military, but the defense pressure brought by monsters is actually not too great. There are a total of sixteen members of the garrison stationed inside and outside the guard tower, as well as two free adventure teams resting here. .
As soon as Mo Bei entered the guard tower, he felt that the atmosphere here was not harmonious. During a routine identity check, he took out the fake identity he had used in Kaltim.
The combat power coming back from the front line would have attracted extra attention, and he was already well-known now, so he didn't want his appearance to attract some people's attention prematurely.
However, when he handed over his identity book, two guards reached out to ask for it at the same time.
The two of them seemed to be ignoring each other, just staring at Mo Bei. Their expressions were not particularly friendly. There was a warning in their eyes, obviously letting Mo Bei figure it out.
Mo Bei's hand holding the identity book froze there. He really didn't expect that he would become a victim of the conflict between bears and wolves before he even arrived at Westmarch. .
There is a conflict between you, but you team up to make things difficult for me. What's going on? (End of chapter)
