1442 Being Someone's Chess Piece
Elder Father was silent for a moment before he slowly said, "Maybe that's the truth."
The atmosphere instantly became tense. Ling Lan didn't seem to notice it and changed the topic. "Lord Qian purposely maintained the current situation not just because he's worried about the Federation."
Elder Father pulled himself together and replied, "We're not the only ones who have their eyes on the Lawless Lands."
"Our old rival, Caesar." Ling Lan's lips curled up slightly.
"Yes, Caesar didn't invest much less than us," Elder Father said in a muffled voice. Most of the comrades who came with them died in their hands. The two nations had always been fighting in the dark and only maintained a fake peace on the surface. However, when they came to the Lawless Lands, the two sides completely tore off their pretense and attacked each other viciously. It was a battle to see who was stronger and had more tricks up their sleeves.
"From the looks of it now, you should be the ones controlling the situation," Ling Lan said calmly. Just by looking at how Lord Qian and Lord Kun were both from the Federation, it was clear who had the final say in the 13 Lords.
Hearing this, Elder Father instantly shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Ling Lan raised her eyebrows and looked over.
Elder Father smiled bitterly and said, "How can Caesar be at such a disadvantage? No one knows when they will make their move."
"Lord Qian is a god-realm expert. Can't he control them?" Ling Lan was deep in thought.
"How do you know that there are no god-realm experts among the people sent by Caesar?" Elder Father asked her back.
"What does Lord Qian mean?" Ling Lan acted as if she didn't hear Elder Father's question and asked directly.
"How would I know? I haven't seen him for a long time. It's been so long that I almost forgot that I knew him." Elder Father drank a mouthful of wine with an indifferent expression.
"But in the Lawless Lands, you should be the person who knows him the best." Ling Lan raised her head and looked at him with bright eyes. Her gaze was so sharp that Elder Father couldn't refute it.
Elder Father drank another mouthful of wine to calm himself down. The young man in front of him was too young but his gaze and aura could suppress him. He was someone who wasn't even afraid of Lord Qian.
Elder Father organized his thoughts and said slowly, "He has always been very confident. Maybe he already knows what he's going to do."
Ling Lan frowned slightly.
"Is there a problem?" Father saw it and asked curiously.
"Perhaps we've been used as pawns," Ling Lan said calmly.
Elder Father's heart skipped a beat as he suddenly realized who it was. "Lord Qian?"
Ling Lan did not answer or deny it.
"He …" Dad sighed. "He has always been good at scheming."
"If I don't betray the Federation, I don't mind being someone else's chess piece," Ling Lan said calmly.
Hearing this, Old Man's eyes flashed. He lost control and said, "Good, good, good … With you guys in the Federation, even if we all die here, it will be worth it."
"Don't talk about death so easily. Being alive is definitely more useful than being dead." Ling Lan stood up.
Old Man smiled bitterly. "Who would want to die if they could live? It's just that with my current strength, there's not much use for me to live …"
"That's not necessarily true …" Ling Lan looked at him with a faint smile.
Elder Father shook his head. "I know my own body. You don't have to comfort me."
Ling Lan didn't say anything. She just saluted Elder Father with the Federation's military salute. Then, she disappeared from the spot.
Elder Father sat beside the fire and drank a few more mouthfuls of wine. Suddenly, he realized that he had finished the entire bottle of wine.
"Seriously, why didn't she ask more about Lord Qian …" Elder Father said helplessly. In the next second, he threw the wine bottle into the fire. At the same time, he sighed.
The next day, when Elder Father woke up, he realized that the surroundings were very quiet.
"Little girl? Why is it so quiet? "Elder Father asked curiously when he saw Doctor Ju checking his body.
"They left." Doctor Ju's expression was a little gloomy.
"Who?" Elder Father was stunned.
"Regiment Commander Zhao and the others. Their leader?" Doctor Ju asked with uncertainty.
"They left so quickly?" Elder Father frowned. "Aren't they heavily injured? Why didn't they stay here and treat their injuries first? "
"They seemed to have something urgent. Regiment Commander Zhao and the others left in a hurry. They only had time to inform me. They even asked me to tell you to not blame them for their lack of etiquette."
"Yes, this mecha clan isn't the only one that participated in the battle. Perhaps other places are still waiting for reinforcements. Time waits for no one." Elder Father expressed his understanding.
"Lord, Lord Gen and his trusted mecha army have left the 9th District. Their whereabouts are unknown." All the lords received this news almost at the same time.
"What a pity … they actually managed to escape," Lord Holy said regretfully.
"The Mecha Scavenger Alliance actually let them go? I thought that there would be a good show to watch. How boring. "Lord Demon lay on the soft bed in her bedroom with a bored expression.
"Lord Gen, at least you have some brains." Lord Zhen smiled slightly.
"Don't disappoint me, brat …" Lord Kun frowned slightly as he looked in the direction of the battle zone.
"Where on earth can you go?" Lord Qian looked at the virtual 3D map in front of him and smiled. "This game is getting more and more fun."
