Chapter 982 Detonation (4,500+)

"You guessed wrong, it wasn't us who saved you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was pushed open again, and a gun-wielding figure followed Victor into the room.

Tired and dusty, who is it but Owens?

He stood still, glanced around the room briefly, his eyes passed over Lansha, and settled on Tang En, showing a slightly complicated look. He then bowed slightly to Joshua who stood up from behind the table and said, "Protestant, Owens, have you seen him before?" Chief Josiah.”

Josiah returned the greeting and then greeted with a chuckle: "Mr. Owens, you are too polite. Since you know Tang En, you are a friend of our Gray Army. Please sit down and have some tea."

Owens was still polite, and held out his hands to guide Victor, who was walking out the door: "That's right, there are more than ten injured brothers of mine outside, and they are quite seriously injured. Thanks to this brother for sending them to treatment in time, Owens would like to thank you. !”

Joshua looked at Victor with surprise, and the latter nodded slightly and explained: "Most of them are external injuries, and they have been sent to the wounded barracks for bandaging."

"Okay." After a slight pause, Joshua suddenly thought of something. Looking at Owens, he hesitated and guessed, "Their injuries...are they because of us?"

Owens simply nodded and then slowly shook his head: "That's true, but it's not me who led them here." "It's Xia Wei'an." Tang En frowned and walked closer, speaking clearly. This is not difficult to guess. Since it is confirmed that the rescuer who disrupted the situation is indeed a member of the Protestant religion, then for Tang En, this problem is not a problem...

"Xavian, the Flower of Knights?"

I have to say that Xia Wei'an's reputation is still very great. Both Josiah and Lansha, who is from the Northern Wilderness, have heard about it many times. The latter looked at Tang En with a strange expression. It seemed that when she first met Tang En in Beihuang, Tang En was being chased by Xia Wei'an for thousands of miles... With such a relationship, Xia Wei'an would also come to rescue him?

Upon hearing this, Owens glanced at Tang En. He smiled, seeming quite satisfied with the latter's reaction. But then he did not answer directly, but sighed: "About the news that the temple is going to use this negotiation opportunity to plot against you. Our Protestant side has already received it. It's just, well. This news was withheld by Xia Wei'an. Maybe. She was worried that everyone would disagree, so she didn't discuss it with everyone, just made up a random reason and led more than ten riders to come all the way. Oh, this fool... By the time I realized what I was doing and started chasing after me, it was already too late... "

After a pause, Owens looked at the stunned Tang En and Joshua, smiled bitterly and shook his head, "When the fallen messenger Meris appeared, I had already rushed nearby, but it was still a step too late. But, well, since you are now They are all safe and sound, which means she did succeed, right?" "The sword missed the target... So, it was indeed Mr. Xia Wei'an who saved us!" Finally, we sorted out the context and knew who the savior of the Gray Army was. Josiah was naturally very excited and looked out the door subconsciously. He asked eagerly, "Where is Your Excellency Xia Wei'an now? Such a great favor should be treated politely and thanked by our gray-clothed army."

Tang En was no longer calm. You guessed it, but it feels different when you actually confirm it. He knew the current territory of the Protestant Church, and he knew very well what Owens said about "not far away". Isn't that an exaggeration? The actual distance is more than thousands of miles away?

"Where is she? Uh... is she injured?" Remembering what Owens had just said about more than ten brothers being seriously injured, Tang En's face couldn't help but change, and he asked anxiously.

"I don't know if she was injured or not." Owens said expressionlessly, "I only know that she was captured by the temple."

"What--"

"Impossible!" Not to mention Joshua's shock, Tang En shook his head subconsciously after hearing this. He denied it without thinking, looking straight at Owens like a hawk. He frowned, "I know Xia Wei'an's character very well. You know better. She will be captured - impossible!"...

"If it were before, of course I knew it was impossible... But now, this is the fact." Owens did not avoid looking at Tang En and Joshua, and said solemnly, "Before she was captured, she asked the injured brother to send a message to Let me tell you again—she saved you this time, and it’s your turn to save her next!”

Tang En watched every trace of Owens's expression for a while, and it didn't look like he was faking it. He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Where will she be imprisoned?"

"Temple General Assembly! With her level and the level of resentment the temple has towards her, she can only wait for judgment in the temple assembly!"

"No problem. Don't worry, Mr. Owens. We, the Gray Army, will do our best to rescue Xia Wei'an." Josiah, who came back to his senses, made his position unequivocal without hesitation.

Owens shook his head slightly when he heard this, with no joy in his expression: "Not enough, this is far from enough."

"What's not enough?"

"There is not enough time to rescue her. She is now in the temple headquarters and her life is precarious. Even if you rush to rescue her now, the time spent on the road will be enough to determine her life or death."

"That's not the case." Lan Sha, who was standing aside and had been hearing the current situation, frowned and said, "With Xia Wei'an's prestige in Bran, no matter how much the temple hates her, it should consider the thoughts of the believers and at least some of the trial procedures. You’ll have to walk in a circle later, right?”

Owens still shook his head: "Maybe, but that's not enough insurance."

"Then what do you mean?"

After a pause, Owens did not answer immediately. Instead, he glanced at Lansha and Joshua, and suddenly said to Tang En: "Although our Protestant religion has only been established for a short period of time, its intelligence strength is not weak. If I remember correctly, I guess If I’m wrong, are you and Chief Joshua in a romantic relationship? And this Miss Lansha, His Highness Beihuang, has a good relationship with you, right?"

Tang En and the other three were stunned when they heard this. They were not shocked by the Protestant intelligence capabilities mentioned by Owens. After all, judging from the other party's plan to know the temple earlier, it is generally clear that the intelligence power of the Protestant religion should be in the same line as the temple, and they are all extraordinary. They are just surprised that what Owens is saying now seems to have no obvious connection with the current situation...

Tang En frowned: "Speak directly if you have anything to say."

Owens nodded: "Okay, I think you all know the relationship between the temple and the current Bran Empire. One is prosperous, the other is damaged. So if you want to ensure Xia Wei'an's safety, not only can you start from the temple, but you can also start from The Bran Empire will take action. To put it simply, it is to increase the value of Xia Wei'an as a prisoner and make the temple generals fearful. They will not take action immediately."

After a pause, Owens suddenly stood up and bowed ninety degrees. He saluted the unprepared Josiah and Lansha respectively, "Chief Josiah, Your Highness Lansha. I have thought about it. As long as the gray-clothed army does not take revenge for the temple's plot before the rescue operation is successful, The Northern Wilderness tribe army has suspended its attack on the Bran Empire, and Xia Wei'an will be safe and sound in the Temple Association. Please!"

"Uh, Sir Owens, what are you doing..." Upon seeing this, Josiah quickly stepped forward to help Owens up. Although the latter stood up, he still looked at Josiah and Lansha sincerely.

have to say. Owens' idea is indeed a good one. If what he said is true, then even if the temple is unwilling, the eldest prince's empire will not sit back and watch anything happen to Xia Wei'an.

but,

"You're kidding." Lan Sha refused coldly without hesitation, "Not to mention that I am not familiar with Xia Wei'an, and she has no help for me. Even if she did, do you think I would give up a great opportunity and give up the attack? Bran Empire?"

Although the words are not polite, this is the truth. It doesn't matter to Joshua, after reaching an agreement with the second prince anyway. The gray-clothed army has no immediate plans to seek revenge or regain their position. But the Northern Wilderness tribe represented by Lansha was different. They were fighting against the Bran Empire, two huge forces with a thousand-year feud. It cannot be transferred due to any personal will!

And then again, even if Lansha wanted to help, he might not be able to do it. If you don't refuse directly, you won't make the other party think about it, and it will be difficult to deal with it...

Tang En and Joshua are naturally aware of this, and they have no position to persuade him on this matter, otherwise they will fall out with Lansha. Therefore, I couldn't help but frown in silence.

The scene became silent as a result.

At this time. "Haha, I knew it would be like this. In this case..." Owens didn't seem to be surprised by the result. He shook his head and murmured softly. Then he took a deep breath and straightened his body and chest. Looking directly at Tang En with piercing eyes, "Then I can only leave it to you."

"kindness?"

"Xia Wei'an is pregnant, your child."

"Pregnant... me, my... Walter?! (hat)"

At this moment, Tang En seemed to be hit directly in the head by a rolling thunder. His mind froze, he was stunned, dumbfounded, and he was so dizzy that he didn't know where he was!

"Uh... Mr. Owens, you, you..." Josiah and Lansha, who were equally shocked and speechless, finally came back to their senses. They couldn't help laughing and laughing, with absurd faces on their faces, "This matter needs to be discussed. Yes, you... are not, not like this..."

Lansha shook his head and laughed: "Haha, no wonder I just talked about my relationship with Tang En... Mr. Owens, are you not so naive? Do you think I will give up attacking Bran if you give such ridiculous reasons?"

Obviously, neither Josiah nor Lansha believed in the trump card that Owens threw out. This is not surprising, it would be damned if they believed it immediately.

But the strange thing is that Owens's expression also remained unchanged, as if he had not heard the question, his eyes were still fixed on Tang En, and he slowly said: "You just said that Xia Wei'an could not be captured. Yes, it would be normal. Of course, Xia Wei'an in this state cannot be captured and can only fight to the end! But, she is pregnant... Think about it, based on your understanding of Xia Wei'an's character, think about it, besides this, what other reasons would she do? What about making such a choice?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Tang En, who relied on his strong killer instinct to regain some consciousness, subconsciously thought about it, and then the mental dam suddenly collapsed. There is only one thought that keeps flying and circling in my mind——

Xavian is pregnant? Xavian is really pregnant - am I having a baby? I actually have a child——

Fear, joy, disbelief... many complex emotions that have never been experienced in two lives, mixed and spread. On the outside, it manifests itself as standing in a daze and being in a trance.

Tang En was silent.

Josiah and Lansha, who were observing him, fell silent one after another. His expression was dazed, and the absurd expression gradually receded from his face. Instead, there was a heart-stopping paleness, a bloodless paleness.

He fell back on his seat at a loss, his fingers tangled and his body curled up. A hand touched his forehead, and he staggered back as if he could not bear the blow. Finally, when he approached the wall, he was supported by Bamutu who appeared out of thin air in time.

Inside the house, it was deathly silent.

No matter how intense the mood swings, there is no ripple.

Quietly, silently.

…

Don't know how long it has been. At least Tang En, who was standing there, didn't know that his thoughts had suddenly drifted thousands of miles away, and his eyes had no focus. Just seemed to hear a "ha" laugh. There was a figure in the corner pushing away the supporting figure beside him, turning around and walking towards the door. With a decisive look from behind, he raised his foot, kicked open the wooden door with a bang, and left...

Not long after, a figure walked up to him and seemed to look at him intently for several minutes.

He said nothing, his erratic eyes looked like broken glass.

Subconsciously, I stretched out my hand to grab it, but my arm seemed to be frozen and not obeying my command. In the end, I still couldn't reach out.

Then, he watched the figure slowly lower his head, turn around, and walk away quickly...

…

quite a while,

"sorry."

Owens stepped in front of Tang En, not daring to look into his eyes. He unconsciously avoided his gaze and tilted his head as he spoke.

Xia Wei'an has said before that she won't fight over anything. Therefore, the words she asked the Protestant knight to bring to Owens were for him and Tang En to speak alone. But Owens didn't do that. After he found where the Gray Army was stationed, his request was to meet with Josiah. Therefore, the current scene will occur. It was also within his expectation...

Owens does not regret his choice.

Even if he had to do it all over again, he would do it again. The reason is simple. This can better ensure Xia Wei'an's safety in the temple. It's just a bit cruel to Tang En, Joshua, and maybe Nalansha...

Of course, no matter what the reason was, it was him who was too talkative, so Owens apologized.

For a moment, "No need...it's not your fault. It's my own fault..."

Owens was startled, but not for long. Tang En's voice was hoarse and hoarse, like the cold wind blowing from the cracks in the Gobi Desert. It was hard to say, "Ahem...if it hadn't been for those things that happened between Xia Wei'an and I in the inn, it would be useless for you to talk about it. Isn't it?"

"I just felt a little unprepared...Josiah didn't, but she had it first. Haha, this kind of thing is really beyond your control..."

Listening to Tang En's calm and expressionless analysis, Owens couldn't help but subconsciously take a step back, muttering speechless.

It was only between noon and afternoon. In the final analysis, Owens' decision was a bit hasty and hot-headed. Of course, he also considered Tang En's various reactions, including being silenced by a furious Tang En, being unable to leave the Gray Army's garrison, etc. But any kind of imagination does not include Tang En's current strange state...

Calm, calm horror.

Like a machine, he considers problems and handles troubles in a meticulous manner.

Tang En, who didn't feel that he was more terrifying in the eyes of Owens, paused for a while, took a deep breath, regained his original voice, and said to himself: "Let me think about it...according to time, she should be eight months pregnant now. She's about three months old. If this hadn't happened, would she have been planning to hide it from me like this? Didn't she tell me even after she was born? Ha, she really doesn't argue about anything... At eight months, the fetus should be taking shape. Like this You dare to go out and run around when you are sensitive, you are so courageous... By the way, how is her physical condition now?"

"Well, it's pretty good." Owens subconsciously continued, "Except for this long journey, she usually pays attention to protecting herself, rarely goes out, and also invites a few experienced women to accompany her. My impression Except for a few times of vomiting, there was no abnormality in her body."

"Oh, that's good... Haha, how can I say that she is a genius warrior? Her physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary women."

"Yeah, haha..." Owens, who wasn't sure whether it was humor or something else, could only laugh in agreement.

"Well, let's do it for now." As if washing his face, he held his hands and rubbed his cheeks vigorously. Tang En seemed to have completely come to his senses and nodded politely to Owens, "You are always more familiar with the temple than me. Today Tonight, no, early tomorrow morning, you and I will go to the south for a walk. Are there any questions?"

"no problem."

"Okay, what should you prepare? You go to Victor, the man who took you to the station just now. Just tell him." He raised his hand and walked towards the door. He paused when he crossed the threshold and turned his head, "By the way, she Have you chosen a name for your child in advance?"

"Yes, there are several. But I'm not sure yet. I was discussing it with her new friend Cindy some time ago."

"Cindy? She...don't let her have a name!"

"Well……"
