Chapter 358 Lissas


    "Your Excellency, the city of Lissas is ahead."


    "Um………"


    Duanmuhuai raised his head and looked at the towering city wall in front of him.


    "It seems that the garrison here is really tightly garrisoned."


    “That’s right…”


    As he spoke, he saw Kanami looking at Duanmu Huai with complicated eyes. To be honest, when she first heard that she was going on the road with Duanmu Huai, she was still shocked. This is not because of concern that Duanmu Huai will attack him. After all, seeing that Kanami already has this awareness. On the contrary, what Kanami is worried about is that they will be discovered by Herman soldiers patrolling along the way or those brainwashed Lissus soldiers, which will be difficult to deal with.


    After all, Duanmu Huai is extremely tall. Although there are no people in this fantasy world of swords and magic, there are still people with similar sizes to him, such a body shape is still very conspicuous. Once discovered, it is easy to be hunted. As a ninja, Kanami is naturally proficient in hidden ways, but she really has no confidence in Duanmu Huai.


    However, along the way, Duanmu Huai''s actions surprised Jiandang Kanami. The reason is...


    "Ah, there are a group of patrol soldiers over there."


    “Avoid them!”


    Hearing Dang Kanami''s words, Duanmu Huai nodded, and then when he saw Dang Kanami, he saw him standing in the shadow of a small tree not yet one meter thick next to him. Immediately afterwards, I saw a group of patrol team composed of Hermann soldiers and Lissus soldiers coming not far away. They looked at both sides while walking, and then walked directly past Duanmu Huai as if she had seen nothing. It was obvious that Duanmu Huai had more than half of her body outside the shadow, but the patrol team seemed to be blind and didn''t seem to notice his existence at all!


    "alright."


    After the group of patrol soldiers walked away, Duanmu Huai walked out and moved his body again. Seeing that Kanami looked at the direction where the group of patrol soldiers left with a complicated expression, she looked incredible.


    "No matter how many times I look at it, I don''t understand how this is done..."


    No wonder Kanami had such a question. At first, when she saw Duanmu Huai casually finding a place to squat, she was also shocked. After all, according to common sense, with Duanmuhuai''s figure as big as that, it is impossible for anyone to not be discovered unless he hides in the dense trees.


    The result was that Duanmu Huai was in front of him, but the group of patrol soldiers turned a blind eye to him. At that time, when I saw Kanami, I thought this was some kind of delaying strategy from the other party. For example, they obviously discovered Duanmu Huai, but they felt that they could not beat him, so they would call reinforcements and wait for the night to attack or something.


    As a result, it was like this several times back and forth, which made Kanami even more confused. It was not until the end that she asked Duanmuhuai questions and experienced it personally that she realized that Duanmuhuai''s hiddenness was really outrageous. She only looked away for a second, and then turned her head and couldn''t find anyone. Moreover, there is only a grassland and scattered shrubs around, and there is no place to hide from people at all.


    At that time, when Kanami almost dug three feet there, Duanmu Huai appeared on her own initiative and found that the other party had been hiding in the pile of bushes not far away beside her, which was not half a meter high!


    How did this be done?


    As a ninja who takes hiding as his career, I can’t figure it out when I see Kanami, the bushes are only less than half a meter, so it’s better if Duanmu Huai lies down higher than it!


    How could he hide in it quietly?


    Duanmu Huai can only say that - you don’t understand the skills of the crow guard…


    Maybe I can teach her in the future.


    Of course, this move was useless when it reached the city gate, after all, there was tension everywhere now. Be very careful. Unless you put a container on Duanmuhuai, you don’t want to enter through the city gate. But this could not defeat him. Although the wall of the King of Lisas is dozens of meters high, it was just a sprinkling of water for Duanmuhuai. He almost easily climbed up the high wall, then jumped down from the other side, and mixed into the King of Lisas.


    "Okay, we''re in... Well, there''s no trace of war here."


    "yes………"


    When I heard Duanmu Huai’s words, I felt a little depressed when I saw Kanami. Along the way, they have passed by more than one city, but the scenes they see are not optimistic. On the Free Urban League, perhaps because it was just occupied, there are still traces of war. However, after arriving in Lisas, although most cities were also damaged, at least on the surface, they had almost returned to their previous peaceful life. Except for a little more soldiers, it seemed that there was no change from before the war began.


    This is obviously not a good thing for Kanami. Although it was a relief to say that the residents were not hurt by Hermann soldiers, it also means that the people of Lissas are likely to gradually adapt to this kind of life and even refuse to be involved in the war again.


    After all, if the Hermann army does evil here and kills and sets fire, even if the people surrender because of fear, they will also develop a mentality of resistance against the Hermann army. But if the other party did not pose a threat to him, coupled with Princess Lea''s previous declaration - if this continues, it is very likely that Lisas will be really annexed by Hermann!


    After all, the rebels are all Lissans now, and their relatives also live in these cities. If their relatives are hurt or killed by the Hermann army, they will definitely avenge them together. But if their relatives were not hurt, it would be much more difficult for the Lissas Rebels to fight again.


    Not to mention that Princess Leia also made that kind of declaration...


    "I''ll go to the nearby area to find out the situation, please wait."


    After saying this, when Kanami saw that he flashed and disappeared into the alley, Duanmu Huai was bored and found a place to sit down and looked around.


    Well... you can indeed feel the devil''s breath.


    Duanmu Huai could feel that although it was very thin, in this Lisas royal city, there was indeed a kind of evil similar to a demon, and a dark aura appeared in it. This feeling is very similar to the twisted aura he felt in Ardolph, the capital of the empire, but it is still a little weaker here - that is to say, the demons here should have only appeared for a while.


    After a while, Duanmu Huai saw that when Kanami ran back panting, she looked into the alley and looked around. Duanmu Huai stood up from the side at this time and saw Duanmu Huai suddenly appear from the shadow. When Kanami was shocked, she reflexively pulled out the knife and breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that it was Duanmu Huai.


    "Huh...Your Excellency, your move is really scary."


    Duanmu Huai didn''t care at all.


    “What are you getting?”


    "Um………"


    When he heard Duanmu Huai’s inquiry, he suddenly looked down when he saw Kaname.


    "Now, both inside and outside the royal city are relatively relaxed, but everyone is also very nervous. Although the Hermann soldiers did not catch people casually like before, no one knew what they were doing behind their backs. And... According to the information, and in three months, Princess Lea will marry Prince Patton."


    "It''s been quite a long time, I thought Hermann would be in a hurry to make trouble."


    Hearing Dang Kanami''s answer, Duanmu Huai was a little surprised, but Dang Kanami nodded.


    "I heard that there seemed to be some problems in Hermann''s country, and not everyone supports Prince Patton."


    "He has hit the capitals of other countries, and anyone else is against it?"


    Duanmu Huaiyi couldn''t understand it at all. To be honest, no matter what means he used, he could attack the capital of a country by surprise and occupy most of the country in a short period of time. This is already a very awesome feat. Logically speaking, at this time Hermann shouldn''t be in the inside and outside, and take the opportunity to eat Lissas in one go?


    What else can I object to?


    "I heard that Hermann was very unhappy about Prince Patton''s collusion with the demon, because Prince Patton''s actions did not inform the king and others this time, and he also colluded with the demon. Once the matter spreads... it will have an impact on Hermann, and..."


    Speaking here, seeing Kanami frowned.


    "I''m not sure if my idea is correct, but when I was collecting information about Hermann before, I learned that this Prince Patton was actually not favored in Hermann. It seems that the king and all the ministers prefer to let another princess take over the throne."


    "I see."


    Hearing this, Duanmu Huai immediately understood. At first glance, the operation of the Herman Kingdom was quite mentally retarded, but it would be easy to understand if it was linked to the battle for the throne. Prince Patton took action first and then joined forces with the Demon to raid the capitals of other countries. Even if he succeeded, it would probably not be a good thing for the Kingdom of Hermann. After all, this means that the possibility of Prince Patton ascending the throne has increased greatly, and of course it will not be welcomed by the princess.


    They probably hope that Prince Patton would die in Lissas and not go back, so how could they help him?


    In other words, these three months are actually the longest time that the Queen''s Sect within Hermann can delay. If Prince Patton is defeated or killed by Lissas within these three months, then they will naturally be happy. If Prince Patton could hold on for these three months or even take over the entire Lisas in one fell swoop - what else can he do?


    I just pinched my nose and accepted it.


    "What about Princess Leia?"


    "Nothing special, she just occasionally appears in front of the people and says a few words. At least from the surface, there is nothing unusual, and she should be herself, not a substitute."


    Speaking of this, seeing Kanami also frowned.


    "The inner city is very strict at present. Although the royal city was also very cautious in the past, it is completely different from now. Even if I were the ones, I might not be able to sneak into it. And the guard post inside is very strict, so it is difficult to move."


    "So the best way is to find a reason to get in and out of it with integrity... Is there any?"


    "I have an idea."


    Hearing this, when Kanami seemed to think of something, she patted her hands gently.


    "There is an arena in the inner city. I heard that the princess will hold a competitive competition there to select powerful soldiers as guards..."


    "So what you mean is that as long as I participate in the competitive competition and win the championship, I can meet the princess openly... Well, this is not bad, but there is another problem."


    "Yes, the arena is in the inner city. To enter the arena, you must obtain a pass. It is not easy to obtain a pass. However, I have learned about an information that recently, a girl has been kidnapped and disappeared, including many noble daughters. In fact, some adventurers have taken the commission during this period, but in the end the adventurers have disappeared. At present, no one dares to take over these commissions. If you can accept the commission, you can negotiate with the nobles and maybe you can get the pass from them."


    "Okay, I knew it would be this routine."


    Hearing Kanami''s words, Duanmu Huai curled his lips and turned around.


    "Then let''s go to the Adventurers Guild first."
