Chapter 120

The unobstructed moonlight spilled down.

Splash~

The fountain in the center of the courtyard surged with water, making a crisp sound, and under the reflection of the night, it emitted a faint silver color.

The environment of the entire courtyard was somewhat quiet at this moment.

Reynas stood quietly by Tang Zheng's side, a sense of relief between her brows.

Yi Mi Na stood not far away, leaning against a statue, a hint of awkwardness hidden in her expression; she felt that in the current situation, she shouldn't be here.

The scene of Reynas swearing allegiance just now still made Yi Mi Na feel shocked.

If it were before this, she would have felt there was no problem staying here, but now, she had a feeling that she had suddenly become an outsider.

Yi Mi Na glanced at Tang Zheng, who was thinking about something, and then her amber eyes glanced at Reynas's exposed face.

Is it because of this reason?

This thought flashed through Yi Mi Na's mind; Reynas's situation was no secret in the Empire.

Seeming to notice Yi Mi Na's gaze, Reynas turned to the side and nodded at Yi Mi Na.

The thoughts and ideas between the two women.

Tang Zheng didn't care about them now; Reynas's sudden allegiance was completely unexpected, but it made a thought that had been suppressed in his heart emerge again.

Building a force!

Tang Zheng had indeed had this thought before, but it was just a thought.

Besides the reason that he had no manpower.

Most importantly, even if there was enough manpower, in four years, how big could the force he built be? Even after the "Great Underground Tomb of Nazarick" descended, there would still be a buffer time of about a year, which wouldn't make any difference.

His opponents were not the local forces of this world.

Even a huge underground force like "Eight Fingers" that spanned an entire country was destroyed in an instant the moment it came into contact with the Great Tomb.

Underground force?

This wasn't a game of playing house.

Don't be too narrow-minded!

Tang Zheng knew very well what could provide him with help in the future.

When the Bone King still had persecution mania, wanting to show his strength by slaughtering hundreds of thousands of people to prove it, while also wanting to show his benevolent governance and friendliness, these human weaknesses still existed.

The only thing that could provide him with assistance and barely compete with the Great Tomb was at the national level!

After the atmosphere was quiet for a short while.

"What is the result of this year's war between the Re-Estize Kingdom and the Baharuth Empire?"

Tang Zheng suddenly asked.

Reynas subconsciously opened her lips, but soon froze, because she hadn't paid attention to this aspect.

"The situation in the Re-Estize Kingdom is a bit bad."

Yi Mi Na's flat voice came from the side, "It's not even the autumn harvest season yet, although it's unclear why the Empire suddenly launched the war."

"But it has caused the border garrison of the Re-Estize Kingdom to suffer heavy losses."

Reynas raised her head, her dark blue eyes looking at Yi Mi Na, surprise in her eyes.

She didn't expect a half-elf, and a lone worker at that, to pay attention to the Empire's war.

"Without the information support of the Adventurer's Guild."

"As a worker, I naturally have to collect information myself, so any news has a certain value." Yi Mi Na turned her face and said coldly.

Tang Zheng nodded, thoughtful.

Regarding the events that left a deep impression on him between the Re-Estize Kingdom and the Baharuth Empire before the plot started, there were only two.

One was this year's Imperial Tournament, the appearance of Gazef, the future "Warrior Captain".

One was two years later, when Gazef killed two of the Empire's "Four Knights" on the border battlefield with his own strength; Reynas was also chosen by the Bloody Emperor to become one of the new Four Knights at that time.

These two things seemed to have no clear connection, but between the two, there was actually a clear thread.

This year, the Kingdom suffered heavy losses, and the Empire won a great victory.

Two years later, it was impossible for the Bloody Emperor to send two "Four Knights" to join the battlefield for no reason.

That is to say, something must have happened next autumn that caused the Empire significant losses.

"Reynas, the fact that you slaughtered two noble families shouldn't be hidden for long." Tang Zheng looked at Reynas helplessly.

The original Reynas used the Bloody Emperor's power to solve her own family and her fiancé's family, but now she did it herself.

These were two different concepts.

It was only a matter of time before she was suspected; with the Bloody Emperor's personality, this kind of provocation to his power would inevitably lead to a wanted order.

"I've caused trouble for you, my lord."

Reynas also realized this, her pale cheeks looking a bit ugly, and she bit her lip.

Suddenly!

Reynas turned around abruptly and looked at Yi Mi Na standing not far away.

"Hey, Tang!"

Yi Mi Na was startled, immediately spread her hands, took a step back, and a stiff smile appeared on her face:

"Is your adventurer party still recruiting?"

=9+Shu_ba

She had realized that these words just now were not suitable for an outsider like her to hear.

The familiar words rang out.

Making a strange look appear in Reynas's dark blue pupils.

"Sorry, I'm not recruiting."

Tang Zheng still shook his head as before, "However, is there a big business abroad that you want to take?"

"I'll take it!" Yi Mi Na said immediately.

"My lord." Reynas looked suspicious.

"It doesn't matter."

Tang Zheng smiled indifferently,

"Your matter couldn't be hidden anyway, and I didn't intend to stay in the Baharuth Empire for a long time."

He was actually quite interested in Yi Mi Na, not because of her appearance, but because of her half-elf identity.

As a mixed-blood of human and elf, a half-elf's talent should be higher than that of a normal human, and because of the mixed blood, Yi Mi Na was actually not well-received by the humans of this world.

"You two get ready, leave the Baharuth Empire now and head to the Royal Capital of the Re-Estize Kingdom."

"Reynas, try to be as high-profile as possible on this journey, and don't hide your identity after arriving at the Royal Capital."

Tang Zheng's eyes flickered slightly as he arranged the next tasks for Reynas: "Then find a person named Gazef; the other party is very famous, so it shouldn't be hard to find his whereabouts."

"Find a way to have a fight with him; it doesn't matter if you don't win, a draw, or even a defeat is fine."

Reynas looked puzzled, but still reached out to her shoulder and nodded respectfully: "Yes, my lord."

"Miss Yi Mi Na." Tang Zheng.

"Just call me Yi Mi Na."

Yi Mi Na rolled her eyes.

"You don't need to be high-profile; try not to let people know your relationship with Reynas. After you arrive at the Royal Capital, investigate an organization called 'Eight Fingers'."

"You don't need to really investigate; if you sell this, someone will definitely target you, just ensure your own safety."

Tang Zheng moved his sleeve and threw a mithril dagger to Yi Mi Na.

It was exactly the mithril dagger he had searched from the people of "Eight Fingers".

"My lord, what about you?" Reynas asked worriedly.

"I still have some things to deal with in the Imperial Capital; you go ahead and meet up in the Royal Capital." Tang Zheng said softly, looking at the deep night sky.

Since he wanted to plan, the earlier the better!

He didn't know if "Blue Rose" was in the Royal Capital now, but even if not, there was something in the Royal Capital worth him planning for.

He wasn't in a hurry before, but it would be good to do it while he was at it.
