I stood up, opened the tent door and looked outside. The sky was clear and clear, and the sun was shining brightly. It was definitely daytime, not night, so Akara must not have been talking in his sleep.

I pricked up my ears again, listening to the sound of wind, grass, and insects hiding in the weeds, and even the noise of the Adventurer Park further away. If I wanted to, I could distinguish it clearly. In this way, my ears also

No problem, there is no possibility of auditory hallucinations.

I began to meditate and reflect. It has been more than ten years since I came to the Dark Continent, almost twenty years, and I have always ignored the many festivals in this world. In addition to the birthday of God, there should be other festivals, big and small, whether it is

In any world, even the hell clan probably has its own festival.

So, what I mean is, is it possible that the Dark Continent also has a festival similar to April Fool's Day, which happens to be today, and which I have ignored for nearly twenty years.

But in the blink of an eye, I dismissed this possibility.

It's not because I'm confident in my memory, but because I believe in the character of the guys I know. If there is a festival similar to April Fool's Day in the Dark Continent, then they will definitely not let it go. They have been deceived a long time ago, and then

Amidst the tears of regret, I will engrav this festival in my heart and look forward to my revenge in the coming year.

After returning to the original place and sitting down, the two elderly people seemed to have been mentally prepared for my sudden move just now, or could fully understand it, and they did not show any signs of strangeness.

"Grandma Akara, are you telling the truth? Did I really hear you right?" After drinking a glass of refreshing water to calm down, I took a deep breath. After more than ten seconds, I asked cautiously and with a serious expression.

.

I was afraid that Akara would say something like "I'm just teasing you."

No, no, no, it’s best to answer me like this, Boss Akara, please be sure to tease me!

"Wu, calm down. I know this decision is ridiculous. Because of this, Kane, who has been my partner for decades, had a rare disagreement. The two of us argued about this matter for ten days."

"So, Grandpa Kane was persuaded by you?" I calmed down, or rather despaired, and gave up the resistance. If even Kane was persuaded, the matter would basically be settled.

But I still don’t understand why Akara would do such a ridiculous thing and take advantage of the four demon kings to stop and kill them? It does sound like a good idea, but the possibility of success is too low and the risk is too high. Once

If it fails, the Alliance will return to before liberation overnight, and may even have to face the angry counterattack of the Seven Giants, which may be even worse than the Talasha Incident a thousand years ago.

What did the Tarasha incident a thousand years ago tell us? What lessons did we learn and what attitude did we adopt?

First of all, the Big Seven are not fools. On the contrary, they are smarter and more cunning than smart people!

Secondly, don't try to stir up their nerves until you find an opportunity to kill all the Big Seven with one shot. They will retaliate without mercy, and they rarely do it overnight.

Thirdly, although the angels will not cheat us, they are not our good brothers. They are superficial brothers, plastic brotherhood, no matter how you interpret it.

Finally, if people seek death, they will die.

After understanding this, it is not difficult to see how absurd Akara's decision is. This is not like her style. With the current situation, as long as the alliance advances steadily, it does not matter even if the Holy See Hill is lost after more than a year. We need

It's more time to wait for Artoria, Sister Sharna, and the little ghost to grow up, and given a hundred and eighty years, maybe they can compete with the Seven Giants.

No matter how bad things are, when everyone grows up, they can form an effective threat to the Hell Clan, so that the enemy does not dare to be so arrogant, and gives the alliance more breathing space. Like a snowball, the advantage becomes bigger and bigger, and the enemy is finally defeated and driven away.

Walk.

It is true that with the arrival of the Silver Age, the strength of the Seven Giants will gradually increase, especially the Four Demon Kings, but I think the alliance has greater potential. As time goes by, this huge potential will be transformed into combat effectiveness, so

I have always thought that the longer it takes, the better it will be for the alliance, even if it means giving up the Holy See Mountain.

I thought that Akara and I would have sympathy for each other and have the same views as heroes. Unexpectedly, when I was not reckless, she became reckless and wanted to cross the continent. She was a hundred times more reckless than I was at my most reckless.

A thousand times more, it makes me ashamed.

"I'm really curious, Grandpa Kane, how you were persuaded." He turned around, and the eyes that were fixed on Akara finally changed their target and fell on another person, with extreme anxiety and confusion.

.

Grandma Akara was so hot-headed that she wanted to act recklessly. As a partner, you didn't stop her. Instead, you were persuaded by her.

Sensing the past meaning conveyed in my eyes, Kane smiled bitterly. It can be seen that even if he was persuaded by Akara, his current reaction is that he still does not think that what Akara proposed is a good idea. What is the reason that forced him to

What about his decision to accept Akara?

I was about to speak when suddenly, the crystal ball placed on the table lit up, which surprised me.

Crystal balls have always been associated with mysterious professions such as mages and prophets, and they are not exempt from this practice in the Dark Continent. Lena has one. I often see her playing with the crystal ball and practicing.

However, I rarely see Akara taking out the food. Maybe it is because of his advanced strength and no longer fake, or maybe he is too old, like Grandma Yalandlan, and cannot bear one or two major prophecies.

, and had to abandon the guy who was eating, changed his appearance, changed his banner, and changed his identity from a prophet to a great elder.

Now, this rare crystal ball has appeared on the table. No wonder I just felt like there was something special next to the fruit plate.

Immediately afterwards, a mellow and sweet voice came from the crystal ball that exuded soft light. It was neither male nor female, like a human or a god, holy and solemn. The moment the voice sounded, this little black shop,

It has become a bright and majestic paradise.

Every word and deed, every breath and every breath, naturally affects the world, transforms the world, and changes the world.

The Seven Giants cannot do this. If they could, the Alliance would have given up hope long ago and imitated the Horadric clan and drilled into the center of the desert, handing over the Dark Continent.

Those high-ranking and powerful ones? It's impossible. They are chess players and they can't easily talk to the chess pieces.

Well, even if it is the first time I hear this sound, the answer is readily apparent, not to mention that I am very familiar with this sound.

Like Li! Fifth Master!

"I'm sorry for disturbing you so abruptly. I hope I didn't scare you." It was like a spring breeze, as if countless pores in the body were being bathed and baptized by the holy light. Tyrell's gentle voice sounded from the crystal without warning.

Looking up at Akara and Kane, they were not surprised. They had already known that Fifth Master was going to show up and give his explanation. I was the only one who didn't know. So obviously, Fifth Master's words were directed at me.

"If anything, I have to trouble Lord Tyrell to take some time out of his busy schedule. I'm the only one who's being rude." I have a high opinion of the Fifth Master, so I don't care if I talk nonsense about business first, anyway.

No need to spend money.

In the crystal ball, I seemed to be able to see Master Wu’s nod with a slight smile. After saying hello, he exchanged a few words with Akara.

"Great Elder Akala, I'm sorry that my willful thoughts have made things difficult for you and put the alliance into an unprecedented crisis."

"Lord Tyrell said something serious. This is a decision I made after careful consideration. I personally pushed the alliance to the edge of the cliff and made a desperate move. This is also a last resort and has nothing to do with Lord Tyrell."

Akara shook her head. She has been putting big pots on my head and back one after another. Now, she actually took the initiative to carry a seemingly huge black pot, which surprised and excited me... No, I

It means feeling heavy.

I always feel that if I turn around, the blame that Akara has shouldered will be transferred to me. Is it an illusion?

Akara and Wu Ye, their words to each other feel like they are pushing a big pot around. In my ears, their polite but sincere dialogue can be translated into something like this

.

My pot, my pot.

No, this is my pot, and it is my pot that is right.

Don't rob me. It's really my fault. I'm an honest man and I won't lie to you.

You see I have it on my back, it’s the right size, black and white, and it’s a perfect match for my bare chest.

If you try to take over this responsibility from me again, will I hit someone?!

Okay, okay, your pot.

So Akara successfully snatched the pot, threw it on his back, and the chain was fixed, becoming a pilgrim of Lothric in the new era.

Then, I seemed to feel the eyes in the crystal ball moving towards me, and Akara also raised her head at the same time, facing me with her white eyes.

Wait, I can take the blame, but I won’t pass on the fire!

Ignoring my inner cry and protest, Fifth Master began to explain why Akara wanted to act recklessly, what does it have to do with it, and why everyone was trying to take the blame.

"The difficulties encountered when entering the realm of the Four Wings can trap the Four Demon Kings for a while, but not forever. I believe everyone has fully understood this."

Akara said just now, I still remember it, and nodded hurriedly: "In only two or three years, they will be able to get out of the predicament and their strength will soar, right?"

"In fact, I have tried to estimate as conservatively as possible. If it is a general situation, then the actual time should be two or three years longer."

"You mean that the Four Demon Kings do not belong to the general situation?"

"That's right. I try my best to overestimate them every time, but they still often surprise me." The voice in the crystal ball contained emotion and regret, but it didn't contain hatred that has been hostile for thousands of years. How wonderful is this?

A broad mind.

"I understand. The reason why Grandma Akara is so anxious is that she is afraid that once the Four Demon Kings solve their predicament, their strength will grow much faster than we imagined, and our situation will be even more difficult by then."

"That's one of the reasons."

"But the strength of our alliance is also growing...and you angels should also improve when the Silver Age comes."

"That's true, but I'm ashamed to say that my comrades-in-arms are not as talented as the Four Demon Kings. When they get out of trouble, the gap will widen even further."

Comrade-in-arms? It should refer to the three commanders under Tyrell. One of them is Ugor, who came to support the Holy See Mountain before and fought against the Heroic Spirit Aggregation. It is said that he has been discharged from the hospital now.

After thinking about it, although I feel disrespectful to Ugor who once worked so hard to support us, the fact is that Ugel can't even defeat the Heroic Spirit Aggregate, let alone face Belial who made the Heroic Spirit Aggregate.

And the other three demon kings.

According to my estimation, Wugel's strength may be about the same as mine. Even if the other two commanders are stronger than him, they probably won't be much stronger. With such strength, any one of the Four Demon Kings can defeat three of them.

In other words, at least on the surface, Heaven is now completely relying on the Fifth Master to support the situation and scare the seven giants so that they dare not act rashly.

Thinking of this, I can't help but admire Wu Ye even more. It hasn't been easy over the years.
