The Humans and the Undead were about to fight? Li Huailin didn't expect this at all. He didn't understand what was going on at all. Weren't the two sides fighting the Demons peacefully? Why did they suddenly start fighting each other?
Because he wanted to figure out what was going on, Li Huailin immediately followed several guards to the palace. Of course, he entered the palace very smoothly. It was a little early, but as a diligent emperor, Anthony had already gotten up and was preparing for the morning court meeting. When he heard that Li Huailin had arrived, he immediately received him.
"What's the situation?" Li Huailin asked as soon as he entered the door. Of course, he was asking about the situation between the Humans and the Undead.
"I'm not sure either." Anthony naturally knew what Li Huailin was asking about, but he wasn't very clear about the specific situation.
"What exactly is going on?" Li Huailin asked.
"Marshal Colin reported to me," Anthony said. Anthony said, "About two days ago, our troops were preparing to attack the Demon Race's Molidar City. At night, the troops were camping in the wild. At this time, they were suddenly attacked by the undead army."
"Huh?" Li Huailin was a little stunned. "Attacked by the Undead army? Explain the situation in detail? What army did the other party belong to? "
"I'm not sure. According to Colin's report, they were attacked by a small team that went out to collect materials. All the members of the team were killed, except for two survivors. According to the report of these two people, it is basically confirmed that they were attacked by the main force of the Undead Army," Anthony said.
"Main force? Then they attacked the small team that went out to collect materials? "Li Huailin felt that something was wrong as soon as he heard this. What was the purpose of this?
"I also think it's a little strange. The Queen also said that there might be some inside story. Although Colin's report was submitted, I haven't approved it. I just want to hear your opinion," Anthony said. Anthony said, "But I couldn't find you. I went to your fief and asked. Your wife isn't around these days."
Li Huailin nodded. There was no need to talk about the day before yesterday. Su Ruoyan's company had so many things going on, so she was probably busy. Yesterday, she was probably dealing with her new investment company, so she was not online.
"I've been held up by something recently," Li Huailin said. "Have you asked the Undead? What's going on? "
"Of course, Marshal Kerlin sent someone to the Undead as soon as the incident happened. In the end, he sent someone twice, but none of them came back. I don't know what happened. In the end, for the sake of safety, Marshal Kerlin temporarily gave up on advancing. He's temporarily waiting for my response not far away from Molidar City." Anthony said, "I originally wanted to let the ministers discuss it at the court meeting later. Do you think it's necessary?"
"No need. I'll go directly to the Undead and ask about the situation." Although Li Huailin did not know what had happened, he would probably know what was going on if he went to the Undead and asked.
"You're going to the Undead?" Anthony said, "I don't think that's a good idea. I don't know what the Undead's attitude is. If they are really prepared …"
"Don't worry. I won't go if I'm not sure. Anyway, let me go and ask first." Li Huailin was naturally very relieved. The Undead were all his people.
"Alright then." Anthony also knew that Li Huailin was an adventurer and generally would not die, so he nodded and said, "Be careful. I'll wait for your news here."
After figuring out what was going on, Li Huailin immediately left the palace, put on a black cloak, and directly used the teleportation function on his necklace. After a flash of white light, Li Huailin appeared directly in a military tent. Soudeis, who was putting on his armor next to him, was startled and jumped.
"Your … Your Highness?" Soudeis's armor was only half-worn, revealing a lot of purplish-blue Undead's shriveled skin. There were also various repair marks on it, which made people feel a little uncomfortable. This was why Li Huailin did not want Old He to stay with the Undead. It was really … unbearable.
"Put on your clothes first. I have something to ask you," Li Huailin said and walked out.
After a while, Soudeis immediately walked out. It seemed like he also had something to report to Li Huailin, and he seemed to be very anxious.
"Your Highness, you are finally here. We have an important matter on our side," Soudeis said hurriedly.
"What is it? Tell me first," Li Huailin said after thinking for a while.
"Your Highness, during the few days when you were not here, we almost started a war with the humans," Soudeis said.
"Why?" Li Huailin asked curiously.
"It started the day before yesterday. At that time, we were attacking the Demons' city and were preparing to attack Gandalir City, where the remnants of Gordon's troops were. However, before we set off, we received news that Gordon and his troops had abandoned Gandalir City and fled north. Of course, in order to capture Gordon, we immediately chased after them and chased them here," Soudeis said.
"Here?" Li Huailin was slightly stunned. He had just teleported here, so he did not know where the Demons' camp was. "Where is our camp now?"
"Our camp is now about a hundred miles south of Molidar City," Soudeis said.
"Molidar City? I think it's a city that the humans are attacking, "Li Huailin said. He had just heard about it from Anthony.
"Yes, the human camp should be in the north," Soudeis said with a nod.
"Why are we here?" Li Huailin asked curiously. "Didn't I ask you to attack the east?"
"But Gordon and his troops ran this way," Soudeis said. "In order to catch up with them …"
"Are you idiots?" Li Huailin interrupted Soudeis before he could finish. "Why are you chasing after Gordon? Didn't I ask you to attack the city? Gordon is a marshal without any soldiers. If you have so much time to chase after them, why don't you attack a few more cities? Are you wasting my time? "
"But Your Highness … Gordon is the enemy's marshal …" Soudeis could not understand. Wasn't it the highest honor to capture the enemy's general during a battle?
"I …" Li Huailin could not be bothered to talk to him. He asked directly, "Anyway, let's continue. Why are we fighting with the humans?"
"We chased Gaden all the way here, and he hid himself here. We immediately split up to search for him, but our troops were soon ambushed. Most importantly, the ones who ambushed us were actually human troops," Sudais said. "That's right, we've been chased all the way here.
"Huh?" This statement sounded familiar. About ten minutes ago, Anthony had said the same thing, but the roles had been switched.
"Yes, your highness. I don't know what happened either, but our 32nd squad, which consisted of more than 200 people, was wiped out by the human army. Only one of them survived," said Soudeis.
"Then this survivor told you that they were attacked by human forces?" Li Huailin asked.
"Yes, your highness. Oh right, we also found weapons used by the human army on those corpses..." said Soudeis.
"…" Li Huailin stared at Soudeis without saying a word, which made Soudeis's hair stand on end.
"What's wrong? Your Highness? "Soudeis gulped and asked.
Li Huailin tilted his head and asked, "Did you send messengers to the human race to demand an explanation? Did you send a few waves of messengers to no avail?"
"Yes, Your Highness, do you know what's going on?" Sudeisi asked.
"Do you know? Before I came out, the humans here told me that their troops had been attacked by the undead. A small team was wiped out by an army that claimed to be the undead, and only two of them were left alive, "Li Huailin said in a flat tone.
"That's impossible, we didn't attack the human army at all!" Soudeis said immediately. "Could it be Dennis and the others? That's impossible, they wouldn't disobey your orders. "
"Yeah, what's even more amazing is that the human army also sent a few messengers to the Undead to ask them what was going on, but the messengers they sent were all gone," Li Huailin said. "That's right.
"That's not right, we didn't encounter any human messengers at all. We even sent people over... wait..." Soudeis began to understand.
"Do you understand? You idiot, you were fooled, do you understand? Isn't it obvious? No matter how I look at it, it's a trick played by the Demon Race in order to make the Human Race and the Undead Race suspicious of each other. Moreover, the Human Race and the Undead Race have different intentions, so they started to suspect each other. "Li Huailin put his hand on his forehead and said," Do you not know how to fight when I'm not here? I helped you deal with the 70,000 troops of the Demons. I've only been gone for two days, and you're almost fighting with your own people. What do you want me to say? "
"Please forgive me, your highness!" Soudeis was sweating profusely. He immediately knelt down on one knee.
"Okay, okay, I'm really..." Li Huailin said with a headache. This group of subordinates really made him worry. Li Huailin waved his hand and asked Soudeis to stand up first. He then said, "Gather the people and get the troops ready. We'll continue to fight our way back."
"The way we came? But Gordon... "Soudeis asked.
"Our target is the city. Just ignore Gordon and let him play by himself," said Li Huailin.
