There's definitely something wrong with this script.

into the night.

The Maple Leaf Mercenaries found a lake to camp.

It took them a day to cross White Wolf Peak and travel to the depths of the Ameche Mountains.

The ancient mountain forest roads are rugged, and the wild animals in the deep mountains at night are even more ferocious and violent, which is not suitable for traveling, so the team plans to wait until dawn tomorrow morning before continuing to set off.

The mercenary group pitched up the tent first, then started to light a fire and cook. After everything was ready, they called the two people in the carriage to get down.

Xu Shuo stepped on the Maza and walked down in an upright manner.

However, the girl behind her jumped straight away!
It landed firmly on the gravel ground.

The mercenaries next to him who were about to help them all paused.

After getting out of the car, Sola looked at the surrounding environment as usual, until she realized that Xu Shuo seemed to be looking at her, then she quickly cast her eyes there.

The two looked at each other for a second.

Sola seemed to have realized something suddenly, caressing her veil to cover up, and whispered: "Are nuns generally not like this?"

Xu Shuo smiled: "There are also lively nuns."

There are even those who kill the Quartet.

In the Heresy Tribunal run by the Holy Maiden of Light, many of them are female believers.

Sola nodded, and followed the young man towards the tent.

The reason why she relaxed her vigilance just now was mainly because Xu Shuo said before that the Maple Leaf Mercenary Group existed to disguise them.

This means that the other party is likely to understand from the beginning that their actions are not simple, and they are in a state of half-knowledge.

So after staying away from the city-state where people come and go, Sola subconsciously relaxed a bit.

The tent prepared for the two is also located in the center of the encirclement. Dinner is boiled beef, some mushroom soup, cheese and rusk, which can be regarded as extremely rich.

Although the caravan was also disguised, there were indeed a lot of things that could be called goods in the caravan's carriage, the most of which were food and luggage.

The mercenaries eat differently from them.

At this time, the wild beasts hunted on the road are being roasted.

The whole body of the beast was brown and black, with fluffy hair, and its limbs were stubby, not like a wolf, but like a bear species.

Seeing Sola's eyes on the wolverine, Xu Shuo said: "Wolverines are the most numerous beasts in the White Wolf Peak, and the closer to the depths of the Ameche Mountains, the more wolverines. Although they live alone Habitual species, but there are too many of them, and there are few natural enemies here, and we estimate that we will encounter their attacks in the future."

Hearing the young man's logical explanation, Sola was stunned for a moment, then nodded in a dazed manner.

Boiled beef is not very tasty, because it is really boiled with ordinary water and salt.

When Sora was biting the meat, his eyes suddenly froze, and he looked up at the forest behind him.

In the dark night, only the fire is flickering on the side of the lake. The calm lake is like a mirror, reflecting the moonlight in the sky, making things around the lake barely visible.

However, the forest in the rear was pitch black, and the towering giant trees were densely clustered, like a mass of thick ink surrounding it.

It is not completely silent here, occasionally there will be rustling sounds, or the faint roar of beasts in the distance.

Sora looked vigilant, scanning the dark and lightless forest.

Xu Shuo didn't cook the beef at all. He ate the bread and said, "Don't worry, creatures like wolverines are nocturnal, and this is the time for them to hunt."

Sola nodded upon hearing this, "So..."

Um? ?

She nodded halfway and was stunned.

—is it time for the beast hunt?
--do not worry?
Are you saying it the other way around? !

When they found this lake, the mercenary group was attacked by several wolverines, and it took a lot of effort to kill them all.

Just in time for nightfall.

Right after Xu Shuo said that, the mercenaries who were preparing dinner for him also stopped their movements, and a dozen of them drew out the heavy swords and hand shields hanging from their waists.

The hand shield is a bit small, and there is a restraint belt on the back, which can tie the shield to the arm.

While the mercenaries were guarding their surroundings, the head of the mercenary regiment who looked quite stable also came over and smiled at the two of them.

"We may not have a good rest tonight, but you two don't have to worry too much, we will arrange people to patrol."

"Thanks for your hard work."

Xu Shuo nodded with a gentle smile.

The head of the mercenary regiment looked at him calmly, and he was secretly relieved when he saw that the young man didn't seem to be unhappy or showed any discomfort.

Then, he also expressed his greetings to the nun next to him.

Sora also gave a polite smile.

After getting along during this period of time, she had already discovered that the attitude of the head of the mercenary group towards the two was somewhat different.

Although it doesn't look like much on the surface, it is actually a little different!

Oh, just because he gave you money?
Sola took another bite of the boiled beef, and finally tore off the piece of meat with great difficulty. While she was swallowing, several fast-moving beasts suddenly sprang out from around the woods!

They leaped down from the trees at an extremely fast speed, stretching out their sharp claws to attack the nearest mercenary!

Brown-black hair, it's a wolverine!

The mercenaries who had been prepared for a long time did not panic at all. Except for the mercenaries who stayed in the camp, the remaining dozens of people ran out excitedly, raised their swords and began to kill the dinner.

Sora sighed.

There are no restrictions on magic and fighting spirit in this world, and all ordinary people can learn it. That is to say, magic is a bit difficult to get in touch with, but warriors can almost master Qi.

That is the aura emanating from their bodies, some are as strong as a mountain, and some are as light as the wind.

The battle was soon over.

However, they were just eating dinner, and the wolverines attacked twice.

The smell of blood permeated around the lake. The mercenaries dealt with the battlefield neatly. If there were too many beasts to deal with, they took them out of the camp and buried them.

Seeing this, Sola frowned: "It seems that we really won't sleep well tonight."

"Wolverines have the habit of hibernating. Now that it's getting cold, they need to prepare food reserves before hibernating," Xu Shuo said.

"You seem to know a lot about these gossip?" Sola suddenly asked curiously.

"When I have nothing to do at home, I read all kinds of books. Occasionally, I will encounter this kind of situation when I go out hunting. I will get used to it after seeing a lot." Xu Shuo smiled.

"Oh……"

Evil aristocrats.

Although she complained like this in her heart, the girl might not even notice that she had subtly relaxed a little.

...

After dinner, everyone planned to rest.

In the early morning of the next day, we had to continue our journey, and it was not suitable to stay up late at this time.

After Xu Shuo and Sola greeted each other, they entered their tents. Their camps were very close to each other, but they were not in the same tent for rest.

He was not in a hurry to rest, but just leaned on the soft couch and continued to read the magic book.

Time passed slowly.

The patrolling footsteps of the mercenaries sounded, and sometimes a few people whispered, and another wave of wolverines attacked on the way.

After the battle outside was over, a light breeze suddenly blew into the tent.

Zuo Fang's figure came in silently.

He first let out a sigh of relief, and then lay down directly on the soft mattress.

The camp prepared by the mercenary group was very good. The bottom was covered with dead branches and trees, but there was a layer of soft and thick bedding on top.

There was even a couch in the tent.

This is simply a luxurious level of camping in the wild!
Even if it was only for one night, the Knights of the Sun were reluctant to suffer under their pope's crown, so the goods prepared on the carriage were actually all for the pope to improve his life.

Xu Shuo, who was reading a book, glanced at him.

"You came in to sleep?"

"You are only allowed to sleep on a warm bedding, but I am not allowed to lie down?" Zuo Fang looked at him resentfully.

The knights who followed secretly were miserable. Because they traveled lightly, they didn't prepare enough food, let alone such a good accommodation.

In order not to scare the snakes, they didn't even dare to camp in the woods, they only planned to spend the night in the trees.

Those loyal knights have no regrets.

But he, the rebellious knight, is not.

Of course, he didn't come here specifically to enjoy the warm tent.

Zuo Fang supported his head and asked, "It's been a day since we were on the road, and it's been three days since the Black Dragon Island incident got out. Logically speaking, the empire should also take action, right?"

Xu Shuo didn't speak, but raised his hand to condense a jade tablet, and then waved it over.

Zuo Fang was startled, and quickly got up to catch the jade tablet.

He tried to probe in with his mental power, and saw the message left inside, and was a little surprised at the moment.

Of course surprise is another matter.

Zuo Fang looked up and down Xu Shuo suspiciously, and said, "Don't you need the Holy See's Light Formation to transmit this thing? How did you receive it on the way?"

Xu Shuo sat on the soft couch with his chin propped up, looked down at him and smiled, "I drew it on the spot."

Put left: "..."

Thanks for being overlooked.

He immediately stood up from the bedding, and then looked down at Xu Shuo who was sitting with his height.

Then he said sternly: "Although you have already made two-handed preparations, the Pope's car that you are heading to the capital will sooner or later be found out to be true or false. It seems that we need to hurry up and settle the matter in the Northland."

Xu Shuo said leisurely: "Even if the truth is not discovered, the empire will not really sit and wait for the Holy See to arrive at the capital."

Zuo Fang rolled his eyes when he heard the words, and then approached Xu Shuo like a thief and asked, "You are the Pope, so have you found out what preparations he has made in Wangdu?"

"How to say?" Xu Shuo raised his eyebrows.

"I suspect that the Pope of Light has long wanted to take action against the kingship of the empire, because whether he is looking for the dragon family or the Duke of Silver you mentioned earlier, it seems that he is preparing to overthrow the kingship. Even the king is impossible and he is not prepared." Zuo Fang thought seriously.

The starting point of their actions at this stage is actually the script task - [overthrow the royal rule of the San Valo Empire].

Therefore, there is no violation of the slightest action.

But in fact, the main mission of the script also reveals a piece of information, that is, it is possible that this camp battle may have happened in the original world.

Then, if the Holy See of Light had long wanted to take action against the royal power, would it have buried many dark chess pieces before the players made money?

In this way, as long as the players activate these dark chess buried by the original camp, they can definitely get twice the result with half the effort!
But if they can't find dark chess.

Estimated to be exhausted.

It's like before the game starts, the character has put down the whistle at the intersection ahead, but the player who entered the script didn't know it, and passed the whistle directly when passing the intersection.

That is to say, he missed the information that the whistle knew.

Zuo Fang feels that Xu Shuo is a man who is extremely capable in inquiring about information, and he also has the extremely impressive status of the Pope.

Then there must be an opportunity to get more information.

"Is there? Is there?!"

The more he thought about it, the more determined Zuo Fang asked excitedly.

Xu Shuo smiled and gave him a look of approval: "You are much quicker than that."

Zuo Fang was taken aback for a moment: "Who?"

Why are you suddenly comparing him to others?
Is there anyone worthy to compare with him? !

"Forget it, it's kind of stupid anyway."

"I know?"

"You should know it."

Xu Shuo thought, since Zuo Fang was also a member of Hongrao's circle, the students must all know each other.

Of course, not including himself.

After hearing this, Zuo Fang showed a disgusted expression: "Since he is an idiot, then don't compare him with Grandpa and me, he is not worthy."

Xu Shuo glanced at him and said nothing.

This person is always a bit arrogant and complacent, but he acts in a clear manner, with obvious initiative and purpose, and his strength is worthy of his arrogance.

In contrast, the other person was so stupid that he had full luck.

Xu Shuo shook his head, and put these chaotic thoughts out of his mind, he didn't want to talk, so he condensed another jade tablet.

The bright breath floated slightly, then dimmed again.

During this period of time, Xu Shuo, who is diligent and studious, has been able to precisely control the magic energy without revealing the slightest breath.

Zuo Fang took the jade tablet and opened it to look.

It contained information about the nineteenth princess of the royal family of San Vallo, as well as the large and small Vatican powers distributed in the royal capital, and even dozens of nobles among them were wooed by the Vatican.

The reason why the San Valo Empire can stand for thousands of years is because as early as hundreds of years ago, the empire took back the right of the noble lords to raise private soldiers.

It was a huge power shake-up.

At that time, it was the Holy See of Light who helped the royal family of San Valo and cleared Panqiu's family power on the mainland of the empire.

And the deal offered by the empire was the birth of the Bright Holy See Army.

This choice was actually correct hundreds of years ago. The benefit of one private soldier was exchanged for the elimination of hundreds of private soldiers.

The Empire has gained far more than it has lost.

It's just that the centipede is dead but not stiff, and the nobles of the aristocratic family have endured for a hundred years and have never given up the struggle for power, especially now that the San Vallo royal family is becoming more and more fatuous and ignorant.

But this time, the deal made between the Holy See and the noble lords was to return the rights of private soldiers to them.

Seeing this, Zuo Fang was stunned: "Is the Holy See trying to set itself on fire?"

Xu Shuo smiled when he heard the words: "Not necessarily, how terrible the threat of noble lords is to the development of a kingdom, the Holy See of Light, which has stood on the sidelines for thousands of years, can't think of this."

Zuo Fang thought for a moment: "Then cross the river and demolish the bridge?"

Xu Shuo laughed again: "Are you kidding me? No matter how powerful the Holy See army is, it is no match for the power of hundreds of noble families."

Hearing this, the corner of Zuo Fang's mouth twitched, and he looked at the teasing young man on the couch.

This is neither that nor...

This guy is just entertaining him, right?
