There is no doubt that the mice behind the Edwards family have caused a lot of trouble. However, due to the large number of rat people and their distribution is not as regular as the human army, the rest of the human soldiers were totally unaware of this except the iron knights on the wall who discovered it with excellent intuition. After all, in front of them, the number of rat people has not decreased.


    But on the sand table in the command room of the witch''s house, Roland can clearly see that nearly one tenth of the power of the rat people has been removed. After that, he gave the instructions to the evil spirits around him to ask the ghouls to leave the battlefield. The task of causing chaos within the rat people and fighting for time for human recovery has been completed. There is no need to put the strongest army in the hands of endless glue.


    After receiving the order, the resentment spirit disappeared in the shadow of the lights, leaving the old man as the commander rubbing his aching muscles. Roland''s big hat was put on the sand table. After a whole day''s command, the old man now can''t care to maintain his image. Fatigue made him realize that he is no longer young, and also let him understand that he had better give the command to others when he has not made any mistakes.


    "Miss Emilia." The magician turned his head and called to the witch who was sitting on the side to rest. But emia did not react. The witch''s eyes were staring at the front, not knowing what she was thinking. Roland shook her head slightly. In fact, emia had been like this since she had solved the crisis of pestilence.


    "Miss Emilia!" Helpless, the old man raised the volume and said.


    "Oh, I''m sorry, Mr. Roland. I''m distracted. " With an apologetic smile on her face, emia rose from her chair and said, "what can I do for you?"


    "Nothing." Looking at the other party''s haggard appearance, the old man gave up the idea of handing over the command to emia. She seemed to need more rest than Roland. "I want to tell you that you''d better go and have a rest. You don''t look very well now


    "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Roland. But I can''t rest yet, especially now. " The witch could see that there was no malice in the old man''s words. She looked at the pieces on the sand table representing the enemies and friendly forces and refused Roland''s suggestion. It''s not really a time to rest, or to indulge in past nightmares.


    "Are you worried about Claudius?" Asked the old man, taking a puff at his pipe. What he could think of that worried the witch so much was the daughter who went to the pharmacist association with cheese, but did not return with her. Although Roland has never had children, there are still some younger generations close to him in his life. The old man can understand this worry.


    "No, Corinthian has grown up. She has to face her life and learn how to live. Besides, since Mr. cheese has promised that she is safe and sound, I choose to believe it She shook her head gently. Emia didn''t care as much about her daughter''s safety as Roland thought. Since the ring on the mage''s hand was still there, she must be alive, and as long as the little witch was not dead, emia believed that her situation would never be worse than in the king.


    In fact, after confirming that the witches headed by kuirah had arrived in the capital, emia was even secretly pleased with the accident of klandi. Because from then on, even she was not sure if she could leave the city alive. At this time, in the witch''s perception, the door of the building was opened. The magic reaction of cheese appeared on the porch, and the grey master came back.


    "Bang!" The heavy pharmacist''s diary was thrown by the cheese in the room beside the sand table. The cheese was gloomy and looked at the situation of the king''s capital on the sand table.


    "How is it going?" Roland asked with a puff of smoke and eyebrows. Although from the expression of the mage, he should not be very happy, but what happened in the Pharmacist Association at night still needs to be asked.


    "Very bad." After thinking for a long time, cheese said these two words. He sighed for a long time, as if to put all the unhappiness out of his heart. Then he sat down behind him. Interestingly, the mage didn''t sit on the ground. An invisible chair caught his body, allowing cheese to explain the results of his thinking along the way in his most habitual posture.


    "We started thinking in the wrong direction." The mage pressed his left leg on his right leg. His two elbows supported the invisible armrest. His hands and fingers opposed each other. He looked at the sand table in front of him and said.


    "I got involved in this because of a trial. This made me ignore a question at the beginning, that is, why such a plague occurs here and now. Rat man plague is obviously not a simple natural disaster, but a curse carefully planned and spread by some people. So, who will profit from it? Who would have lost so much in this plague? "


    "All along, I''ve been blindly following the disseminator of the plague, trying to end it. But I didn''t expect to be pulled into this fog unconsciously and forgot the most important thing. Lichs, cultists, bewitched mortals, demons and their summoners. These guys may not be the same people, not from the beginning, and they may have their own reasons to be involved in the game like me"It''s the new witches who make me think that way. It was a coincidence that they appeared. Although Glenn''s death is a good reason for them to attack in a large scale, if it was me, I would never let a betrayer die. You know, it''s a whole witch group that pursues her. "


    The words of cheese made Roland and and emia frown. The witch''s eyes twinkled. She thought of many things. Some things that could not be explained before but could only be understood as coincidence were slowly linked together under the mage''s inference, forming a clear vein.


    "Do you mean that they were deliberately attracted at this point in time?" The old magician put down his pipe, and the topic left him no time to think about anything else.


    "Yes. Even I guess it''s not only the witches, but also your presence in the other party''s plan. Or would a vagrant like you come to this remote country at this moment? And it happened to save me who was swept away by the magic turbulence. It''s totally unreasonable, isn''t it? "


    "It''s true that you said it. I don''t know what I thought at that time. I wanted to stay in Cangshi for two days." Roland nodded and said.


    "But what''s the use of knowing that?" The witch interrupted the conversation and asked, "I mean, even if it''s all like you said, we''ve been treated as pieces on the chessboard, but every battle you''ve had with us so far is true. Even if we guess we''re being used, how about it? "


    "Purpose, lady, purpose." Said the mage, tapping on the invisible armrest.


    "Once we understand the intention of the messenger, we have the opportunity to turn back and predict the next action by guessing his purpose." Said Roland.


    "Yes! Now I think it looks very suspicious that the Lich and I are involved in the magic turbulence. It was as if the other side deliberately threw me into the quagmire of Wangdu, and then the decoy of the false Baron trapped me firmly here, so that I had no time to care about him. Now even such a large-scale rat man attack has been launched, which is not in line with the habits of rat man, is it? "


    "Well, gentlemen, I can''t keep up with you. Can you tell me your conclusion directly Emia rubbed her forehead to show that she really couldn''t keep up with cheese and Roland''s ideas.


    "My conclusion?" At this point, the mage laughed. With a flick, an invisible blade flew over the sand table and hit the Cang lion map on the wall. There is a small hole on the map that has been hit, and the location of this hole is the melting iron city in the territory of Prince liehammer.
