In Yuanshen, no one understands holy relics better than me

Xia Tian pretended not to understand, and teased with a smile: "Do you want it or not? I don't understand what you mean at all!"

"Brother Xia Tian is bullying!" Barbara puffed up her cheeks, jumped high, and pulled the lunch box away from Xia Tian's hand.

Fortunately, the lunch box is very tight and can withstand such fluctuations.

It's just that Barbara picked up a little too high this time, unable to stabilize her body's balance for a while, and directly bumped into Xia Tian.

Xia Tian's body is thick, so it won't be unable to bear the impact.

He touched Barbara with both hands, and hugged Barbara in a somewhat ambiguous posture.

The fat on the waist that Barbara always cares about is Xia Tian's favorite, and she wants to rub it enough even through the clothes.

"Cough." A light cough.

The sister next to me refused.

Captain Qin frowned, and simply closed his eyes, out of sight and out of mind.

Although she wasn't too happy with the possibility that Barbara would need to share her husband's problems with others in the future, she had accepted their relationship.

Xia Tian is a very good person, I believe he can protect Barbara and bring her happiness and happiness.

It's just that Qin, who has received aristocratic education, still can't accept her own sister being intimate with a man in front of her eyes.

Barbara blushed, and jumped back playfully, leaving Xia Tian's embrace.

Smiling cutely at her sister: "Sister, do you want to eat together?"

In front of outsiders, she usually addresses Captain Qin, but Xia Tian is not considered an outsider, right?

Qin is very doting, and even helped Barbara straighten the hair that was messed up by the jump just now: "No, you can eat... I just happened to have something to talk to Your Excellency Xia."

Barbara was very sensible, so she went to a corner where the two of them would not be disturbed, moved a small stool, and began to enjoy the soup and rice cooked by herself in summer.

What is the original taste of soup and rice?Anyway, every bite is more satisfying than any rare delicacy.

Chapter 570 No matter what the future holds, you will be my friend

"Wind" is the most cunning, even if all the doors and windows are closed, it can still find secret passages to sneak in.

The clever little nun took the tape and carefully covered the gaps that might leak air, which made "Master Feng" extremely dissatisfied, and frantically knocked on the glass of the window sill, causing a "puff puff puff" wail.

"Why can't Lord Barbatos take care of it? Even if the snow can't be stopped, can the cold wind be stopped?"

In the corridor outside the ward, there are young nuns discussing. These words and thoughts are probably the true intentions of most Mond people!

The wind god Barbatos may have abandoned Mond... we can only rely on the Knights of the Zephyr.

Even the most god-fearing nun has other thoughts. It is conceivable how fragile the authority of the Seven Gods, which feeds on faith, will be.

Hearing the comments of those little nuns, Qin frowned, a little dissatisfied.

She is not a god supremacist, but she also knows that Lord Barbatos has not abandoned Mond, and perhaps this time he is also guarding secretly.

Standing beside her in Xia Tian, ​​both of them looked at the high mountain blurred in the ice and snow in unison.

In the "Dragon's Back Snow Mountain" that is always accompanied by disasters, Barbatos once fought against the disaster that caused the fall of "Dragon" Durin together with "Guardian of the East Wind" Twarin and Rustan "Guardian of the North Wind".

Durin the "Dragon" finally fell, and his blood blackened the earth.

"Guardian of the East Wind" Twarin was corrupted by poisonous blood, wandering in chaos and pain.

The "Guardian of the North Wind" Rustan, known as "Youlan", even gave his young life.

"Wind God" Barbatos also exhausted his strength and fell into a century-long sleep.

How many homes were destroyed in that great war... Now, will it happen again?

Qin repeatedly asked herself: Master Vanessa, is the current Zephyr Knights capable of protecting Mond?

Even with the heart of seeing death as home, she still couldn't be sure.

"Captain Qin, are you also here to visit Hu Tao?" Xia Tian was very surprised to meet Qin in Hu Tao's ward. It stands to reason that Hu Tao is not a member of Liyue's political circle, so they should not be familiar with each other.

Qin turned around and looked at the girl on the hospital bed, her gentle eyes flashed a bit of distress: "Although I am not familiar with Hutao, I have also heard the story of the Hall of Death. I admire their serious attitude towards funerals for a long time."

Speaking of which, the Hall of Rebirth is mainly for the funeral of Liyue people, and the junction of life and death in Wuwangpo is also mainly for assisting the souls of Liyue who reincarnated, so what if Mond or people from other countries die?

There is a large cemetery behind the Westwind Church... Cremation is not popular in Mond, and most residents prefer water burial and burial.

What about the soul?Will there be a place similar to the border between life and death in Wuwangpo?

"I heard that the seventh head of Hall of Rebirth No. 70 is a strange person?" Qin seemed to be chatting in an ordinary way, without any airs of acting head of the knight order, her voice was soft and comfortable.

Weird?Xia Tian thought for a while: "Well, it's about the same, it's just annoying... always nagging, normal people can be driven crazy by her!"

Walnut was lying on the side, and he was still in the mood to make fun of it.

The words on his lips are full of criticism, and the smile on his brows and eyes reminds him of the days when he was "driven crazy".

"She must be a good girl to make you care so much, right?" Qin's voice was very soft at first, and she couldn't hear it clearly.

Before Xia Tian responded, he changed to a more formal tone: "I don't know medical knowledge, but Barbara told me that Walnut's situation seems a bit complicated? Do you know how to treat her? What is our West Wind? Can the Knights help?"

Of course!

"Probably just kill that big guy in Snow Mountain!" Xia Tian was not sure, but he couldn't think of other possibilities: "I also hope that Captain Qin can share more information."

"Heh." Qin laughed out loud, with a hint of self-deprecation.

Sure enough, if you can't get around it anyway, then don't get around it.

Originally, I also planned to come over to see Hutao, and then go to Xia Tian to discuss it. Since I met here, let's start directly!

The topic was very abrupt, Qin's face sank, and she got to the point: "The size of the enemy cannot be determined, but it is certain that there are a lot of enemies. The Qiuqiu people in the entire eastern region are all gathered near Longji Snow Mountain... the guard post near Longji Snow Mountain and villages have been completely destroyed."

Qiuqiu people in the entire East District?The number is afraid that it will take thousands of digits to jump.

Is it Kaia's intelligence?

Xia Tian conjectures: The fact that Kaiya is a descendant of Kanria is basically a certainty, and the Qiuqiu people are all the people of Kanria. Could it be that there are Qiuqiu people as his internal support?

Qiuqiu people are low-intelligence creatures, even if ordered by some powerful force, they will only follow stupidly.

They have no organizational ability, and a large number of gatherings in a short period of time will inevitably cause a shortage of food, so they will definitely start to act soon.

"Have you attacked already? How long will it take?" Xia Tian was a little excited.

Qin replied truthfully: "The Qiuqiu people as the main body will not move too fast, but at most tomorrow morning, they will contact the cavalry on the first line of defense."

Tomorrow... sooner than expected.

"Then... what about the Knights' plan?" Xia Tian asked, staring at Qin's expression, which might represent whether he was fully trusted.

Qin didn't hesitate, couldn't help hiding it, and told Xia Tian everything she wanted to know: "There is a huge difference in the number of enemies, this time I must go all out and fight to the death... In this weather, there is not much to offer. The choice of strategy, the only thing that can be decided is to go out of the city to fight, or to defend the city."

In Xia Tian's eyes, this is not an option at all: "Going out of the city? Since there are many enemies, it is the best solution for us to rely on the city wall for defense? Most of the West Wind knights should not have experience in snow combat..."

Qin nodded affirmatively, and explained the reason for leaving the city: "It is true that under such circumstances, going out of the city is very dangerous...but it may be possible to avoid affecting the lives and private properties of the residents in the city."

"Our manpower is insufficient. Even if all the reserves are added up, it is difficult to defend the entire city... If there is a gap that breaks through and the enemy floods into the city, the civilians will be in danger."

In order to protect the civilians, I chose a more difficult method, but that way the winning rate will also be reduced...

Xia Tian could not agree, and asked: "Which side does Captain Qin prefer? Defend the city or leave?"

"If it's a normal environment, with the fruit wine lake as a natural barrier, of course I'm inclined to defend the city, but now..." Qin hesitated a little, and she didn't say the main reason.

In the just-concluded emergency parliament, most of the public opinion representatives expressed their willingness to advance and retreat with the Zephyr Knights and protect Mond City together.

However, some chambers of commerce alliances with more power to speak expressed objections. They did not want to make a mess after the war.

Xia Tian did not continue to discuss the issue of choice, he acquiesced to the option of defending the city, and he also believed that Qin would eventually make a more correct choice.

"Mond is a sloping island, at least half of the highland area will be relatively safe, and there is no need for too many defenses..."

"With the IQ and organizational skills of the Qiuqiu people, I don't think they will have any strategies or plans. They must rely on the number of people to fight head-on..."

"As for the manpower problem, you can ask the Adventurer's Association for help. Most of them have experience in fighting alone. They are very suitable to stay in the city to clean up the enemies who sneak in, and they can also fill in possible loopholes when needed."

Xia Tian said his rough opinion.

"Is your opinion to defend the city?" Qin smiled, and at the same time strengthened her mind, and stopped talking to those businessmen who smelled of copper.

"En." Xia Tian nodded.

There wasn't much to analyze about the Qiuqiu people. It was enough to rely on will and flesh and blood. He believed in those brave and fearless West Wind knights.

The biggest problem is that Emon Loka, known as "the strongest in the history of Mond".

Xia Tian has seen it before, that power is definitely beyond the reach of human beings, and it was not in a complete state at that time...

"About Emon Loka, what about his descendants? What about his clan? If I remember correctly, "Emon Loka" should be a very famous family of Mond, right? "

Xia Tian wondered if it was possible to play an emotional card and let his children and grandchildren persuade him or something.

Qin first answered the last question: "That's right, Lawrence, Gurnhilde, and Emon Roca... are the three major families that founded the Mond, and Emon Roca was also the strongest fighting force back then."

Speaking of history, as the blood of Gunhild, she is a bit proud: "Lawrence's management, Gunhild's leadership, Emon Loka's combat power... gave Mond its initial glory."

Then answer the question that Xia Tian cares about the most.

Qin showed regret: "But after opening up Mond, Emon Loka took his tribe away. There are records that they went to the "Munata" side, and later a small part of the side blood returned to Mond... Countless After thousands of years of inheritance, the already thin collateral blood has been diluted time and time again... Now, there is no Emon Loka family. "

"A family that only exists in history books..." Xia Tian frowned and muttered to himself.

According to Xia Tian's question, Qin thought of a certain possibility: "When you fought against Emon Loka, what was his state? Now that we can communicate, is there any possibility of negotiation?"

"Impossible." Xia Tian decisively denied.

He said: "Emon Loka was vain about reincarnation, imprisoned the dead, hated the gods, and tried to recast Fendenir...I can no longer think with normal logic."

"He has probably been consumed by hatred and anger...and, if I guess correctly, the pollution of those "seas beyond the dark" will only magnify the ugliness in his heart...so, I don't think there is any possibility of negotiation. "

"Hehehe." Xia Tian shook his head helplessly: "After all, he is a dead person, so what reasonable things can he expect to do?"

"Did the hero of the "Sea of ​​Darkness" be tarnished? Qin recalled the records in those documents, and couldn't help thinking: "Imon Roca made considerable contributions at the beginning of Mond's establishment, and the whole family suffered a lot of blood and casualties... But in the subsequent founding of the country, he did not propose any Request... If there is such a strong desire to restore the country, at least should have fought for it in the first place, right?Because according to the records, he brought back several "Fendenir" children, although... those children all died when they were 12 years old. "

Xia Tian frowned: "Dead? How did you die?"

"I don't know, it's too long ago, and the records are not so detailed... But after those children died, Emon Loka's direct clan left Mond..."

Qin showed consternation and connected things together: "It was the deaths of those children that crushed his last heartstrings... Did he lose his final trust in the gods?"

No one is driven crazy for no reason.

Xia Tian sighed, no longer thinking deeply, the more understanding will only slow down the hands that wield the blade.

No matter how miserable Emon Loka's experience is, how much he has suffered, and how sincere his wish is...

Now, Xia Tian needs to be faster, stronger, and more determined... No matter who it is, no matter what the cause and effect are, they can't hurt Mond recklessly!

Qin has decided to use Xia Tian's power again, saying: "Tomorrow morning, we will discuss the final strategic deployment at the headquarters of the Knights. I hope you... I hope Your Excellency Xia can also participate."

Unexpectedly, he was rejected: "No need, just tell me how to do it when the time comes... I trust Captain Qin's judgment."

"I will be Mond's strength... I have not forgotten what I said two months ago."

Xia Tian looked at those blue eyes on the surface of the wine lake, and conveyed a fiery oath: "I will become Mond's sword, and I will also become Mond's shield, and I will protect this city!"

Needless to say.

The slender eyelashes trembled slightly, and Qin couldn't use words to rejoice at the surge at the moment, as if being proposed by a loved one, perhaps even more touching than this.

Because, in Qin's heart, Mond City is far more important than anything else.

She tightened her thighs, straightened her body, and put her hands on her chest... an incomparably beautiful knight's etiquette.

"As the acting head of the West Wind Knights, I pay tribute to you."

"As the eldest daughter of the Gunnhild family, I pay tribute to you."

"As an ordinary citizen of Mond City, I pay tribute to you."

After the ceremony was over, Qin took off her bowl armor, took off her sleeves, and stretched out a jade hand representing complete acceptance: "Your Excellency Xia, no matter what the future holds, you will always be the Knights of the West Wind..."

After thinking about it, maybe I can't represent the West Wind Knights forever, so I changed my words: "Xiamen, no matter what the future holds, you will be my forever friend!"

As a friend, she omitted the word "Your Excellency" which represents respect, forever.

It's not the first time to shake hands, but it's the first real skin-to-skin contact. Without the barrier of gloves, you can feel the temperature of the piano.

Today, it's going to be hotter than usual.

Xia Tian doesn't want to be so serious all the time, friends should have friends' topics.
