1388 Truth 1

Gurion, who was considered by the girl Becky to be extremely stingy, still did not satisfy the girl Becky with the resources he gave her in the end.

But for Raymond, the small bundle of processed resources was very useful, especially the few high-quality python gall grasses in it, which were the rare plants that Raymond had always wanted to obtain but was troubled by not knowing their origin.

And the criminal Gurion, who seemed to understand the girl Becky better than she did, finally took out some more things under the girl Becky's relentless insistence, as a thank-you gift to "see her off" as soon as possible, which made the girl Becky agree to his request.

The team left the pond and started to head west at a faster speed.

But maybe Gurion was indeed a very stingy guy. Since then, they encountered very few unique plants along the way, but they could not find clear evidence of Gurion's intervention, which made the girl Becky extremely helpless and kept cursing all the way.

But this time, no matter how much Becky cursed, Gurion did not show up, which made her feel upset after she walked out of the range of Despair Blue Lake, and she claimed that she would definitely come back here to give him a good show in the future.

It took another week for Raymond and others to finally arrive at a human city closest to the blue sea, and then they learned about the attack and defense battle that took place in the Blue Sea Castle a month ago.

Although the Blue Sea Castle owned by the half-lich Trini resisted the attack of the Xilan Alliance twice, the Supreme Council listed it as a forbidden area for humans and closed all the teleportation arrays that could reach there.

And because of the second attack on the Blue Sea Castle, many races of the Xilan Alliance suffered heavy losses, especially the two slow-moving desert beasts died, which made the Desert Beast Clan, which had never participated in the conflict between humans and monsters, completely angry, and publicly joined the Xilan Alliance and became one of the more powerful races in the Warcraft Alliance.

No one had ever thought of the attack and defense battle of the Blue Sea Castle. It ended with such a dramatic result, but it also became a reasonable excuse for the Xilan Alliance to declare war on humans, allowing it to quickly recruit many monster tribes. After its strength expanded, it was considered to have opened the prelude to the war against humans.

Raymond, who had thought that the half-lich Trini had prepared, did not know how it defended. Therefore, he could not understand how it resisted the two strong attacks of the Xilan Alliance.

Because in his opinion, it was extremely difficult to resist the team led by the Iron Wing Beast Elder Femia with the defense facilities in the Lanhai Castle alone, not to mention that it could resist the attack of two desert beasts and keep the Lanhai Castle intact.

But the results of the two offensive and defensive battles were already a fait accompli, so when Raymond and others arrived at this human city, the atmosphere here was extremely tense.

And many human wizards who gathered from all directions in the previous week also went inland through the teleportation array here, which overwhelmed the teleportation array of this medium-sized city and needed to be repaired before it could continue to be used.

The originally scheduled itinerary had to be changed because of the damage to the teleportation array in the city.

After replenishing supplies and resting properly in the city, the desertified single-eyed sandman Shaliman became a mount and rushed towards the blue sea.

Just as Raymond and others left the city for the blue sea, a very special mobilization meeting was being held in the Great Council Hall of the Supreme Council of the High Tower Land.

Representatives of many legions, deans and vice deans of many wizard academies in the High Tower Land, heads of various powerful departments, and representatives of middle and high-level wizards who came from all over the country to prepare to go to the nightmare plane. The Great Council Hall, which can accommodate more than a thousand people, was packed.

But this time the atmosphere on the scene was extremely stagnant and dull. Even Belozov, who was sitting on the stage, kept a straight face, which made the two deputy speakers who had just been promoted beside him feel like sitting on pins and needles.

The middle-aged wizard who was reporting the war situation in front of the participants was sweating profusely because he could clearly feel the coldness in Belozov's eyes behind him. However, he had not finished reading the war situation in his hand, so he had to suppress his fear and try to keep the frustration and excitement in his tone.

"... This is roughly the situation. Although the number of the southern magic beast army in the nightmare plane this time is somewhat beyond expectations, the expeditionary force that led the construction of the stronghold defense system has made the most correct response. Not only did it reduce casualties to the minimum, it also attracted the advance of the southern magic beast army and killed more than 500 spider beasts near the Lanci Sea, allowing the expeditionary force to regain the initiative on the battlefield..."

Hearing this, someone in the audience finally couldn't help but stand up and roared angrily. "Don't try to cover up the failure of the expeditionary force! We need to know the real situation of the battle! We need to know the specific number of casualties! We need to know why we need to abandon the two strongholds in the east..."

The sudden questioning voice broke the previous dull atmosphere.

Although most of the participants were not aware of the true situation of the expeditionary army, the content of the report requested by the questioner was the part that everyone was most concerned about, so the discussion immediately became noisy, making the entire parliament hall noisy and somewhat chaotic.

The wizard holding the war situation report document could not continue, while Belozov on the stage still had a stern face and said nothing.

The two vice-speakers sitting next to him were unable to respond to the growing roar from the audience because they did not know the specific situation.

I don’t know who guided it. When the conversations and noises in the council hall gradually gathered, they turned into short but extremely sharp slogans. The extremely clear and neat voice echoed throughout the council hall.

"The truth! The truth...we want the truth..."

"The truth! The truth...we want the truth..."

The young wizard who had previously questioned the wizard who reported the war situation left his seat with a smug look on his face, stood up in the air and pointed his finger directly at Belozov. "Speaker Belozovo, all the war reports that have been circulated during this period are whitewashed war reports! But why should the heavy losses suffered by the expeditionary force three days ago be deliberately concealed! The invasion of the nightmare plane was promoted by you. Yes, but why did you conceal the truth when you continued to recruit mid-level wizards for reinforcements? What is the battle loss rate of the expeditionary force..."

When this person was questioning, Belozovo finally stood up on the stage. He stared coldly at the young wizard, forcing him to shut his mouth under his cold gaze.

"Are you accusing me of lying?"

"Lord Belozovo, I dare not accuse you of lying! But many wizards in the entire Tower Land are waiting for the truth. If you cannot tell the true situation of the expeditionary force clearly, then we can only think that the nightmare position is The series of good news above are all fake, and all the victories are just fabricated by the Supreme Council to cover up its incompetence!”

The loud question earned the young wizard standing in the air the support of many kind eyes, but Belozovo, who had been staring at him, did not answer at all and asked coldly again. "Are you accusing me of lying?"

The young wizard, whose face turned pale, was unable to bear this invisible pressure, and his face changed miserably.

But Belozovo, who was standing on the stage, was not impatient. After the young wizard was forced to fall down again by his momentum, he scanned the people in the parliament hall and spoke very slowly. "Except for the fact that the expeditionary force suffered 300 casualties three days ago due to the crazy counterattack of the spider beast army in the southern part of the nightmare, the proportion of casualties in any previous battle was within the normal, acceptable and allowable range. !”

After saying this, Belozov paused for a moment. After the noise in the conference hall faded away, he raised his voice and roared in vain. "The two strongholds abandoned before have successfully wiped out the southern spider beast army that attacked the front..."
