"Wait! Wait a minute!"

At that moment, Ariel stretched out her hand again. But it was different from before, this time she actually caught something.

However, the color that immediately appeared in front of him was no longer the pale world, but the scenery inside the elemental carriage that was constantly shaking.

"Sister President...you...what's wrong with you? Have you had a nightmare?"

Only then did Ariel realize that she was holding Coco's wrist. But Coco now had a worried look on her face, carefully looking at Ariel in front of her.

In this regard, Ariel was silent for a moment and then exhaled.

After she adjusted her mood a little, she took the wet towel covering her forehead and said, "Where are we now? What day is it today?"

Coco nodded slightly and said: "We have left the border province and are currently within the boundaries of Tianhong Province, heading towards Baiquan City. As for the time..."

Coco lifted the curtains on the car window and looked outside. At this time, the sunshine outside shone in, and then said: "It is the early morning of May 8th. In terms of time... it should be around six o'clock."

Hearing this, Ariel exhaled again.

The Demon King was released on the night of May 5th. If we strictly follow the three-day period, then tonight, the Demon King will be officially released from the seal and descend to this world.

As Ariel was thinking, Coco looked at her slightly worriedly. After a while, Ariel saw that the girl was still looking at her face. In order to prevent her from being too worried, she immediately showed a smile and said: "Don't worry,

I'm fine. We've escaped so far now, so it shouldn't matter, right?"

Even though Ariel showed a relaxed expression now, Coco still had a frown on her face and said: "Sister President... what are we going to do next? We brought a total of

There are almost 2,000 mermaid troops and more than 10,000 civilians. After we take so many people to Baiquan City, next... what should we do?"

This question has indeed been on Ariel's mind for the past two days or so.

To be honest, this problem is really difficult to plan well.

Although Baiquan City is the capital of Tianhong Province, there should be no problem in accepting more than 10,000 civilians. In addition, there are almost 1,500 people in the Mermaid Army in Tianhong Province. If we call in more people from Diliao Province,

If more than 1,500 soldiers come, the Mermaid Army should still be able to build an army of 5,000 people.

But the question is, what to do next?

Do we really want to use Tianhong Province as a base to fight the Demon King's army head-on?

In fact, it is unclear what the current strength of the Demon King's army is, and it is also unclear whether a hasty war will have good results.

However, judging by the strength of the forest guardian, ocean guardian, and Napa, Ariel would never believe that the demon king who was about to break free from the seal would be an easy character to deal with.

Moreover, there are still some unresolved questions about this demon king.

First of all, as an elf, why did Ego become the Demon King? What qualifications did he have to become the guardian of the earth?

She wanted to ask this question in the dream, but the two guardians did not give him a chance to ask. In other words, it should be that just when she wanted to ask this question, the two guardians cut off the contact with each other.

. The feeling given to her is that these two guardians are not very concerned about the life and death of human beings, but would rather wait for the strength formed by uniting again after the human side is dying fifty years later.

Secondly, all the countries in the entire Golden Continent have not maintained the seal even once?

Maintaining the seal is indeed a very laborious matter that consumes financial and material resources.

However, no matter how short-sighted they were, during the period just after the seal was completed, those countries did not want to maintain it even once? They were not worried that if they did not maintain it once, the devil would return within the next ten years.

Appear? The fifty-year Demon King's War has slaughtered mankind to the point where they had to unite. Those in power at that time really didn't worry about being sealed again in a short period of time before they died of old age.

Untie it?

This also raises another question, and that is why not only the maintenance of the seal has not been done, but even the countries on the entire Golden Continent have begun to spontaneously do the same thing - forgetting!

That's right, it's forgetfulness.

All records about the Demon King's War have been deleted, and even books and text records that only record a few words are difficult to preserve. Such a terrible disaster, which lasted for more than fifty years, is not worthy of being remembered by all kings?

Do you want to completely record the cause, process and result of something and then use it to warn future generations?

Why do all countries want to forget this matter? Even now, except for only one year left that is still being counted silently, everything else related to the Demon King's War seems to have disappeared?

Then, there is the last point, which is also the most important key information Ariel got from this dream question and answer.

That is, it took the Demon King fifty years to conquer the entire Golden Continent.

Why?

If the Demon King is really as powerful as the Guardian of the Earth, why would such a powerful force prevent him from ruling the entire Golden Continent for fifty years? Even at the last moment, human beings still have the power to unite and spend all their energy.

Millions of people made poisonous blood and spent a lot of money and material resources to build towers to seal him in the end?

If it is truly an overwhelming force, after fifty years of war, can humans really still have such an ability?

In other words, the only thing that these fifty years can prove is that the Demon King has not been expanding its territory for fifty consecutive years.

So, why didn’t the Elf Demon King expand after he had powerful power? But if he really wasn’t obsessed with expansion and fighting against humans, then how could he possibly force humans into this world in fifty years?

We have to unite and use all our war potential to seal him?

Fifty years...

Fifty years can change a lot of things. This is almost two generations. What kind of secrets are hidden here?

The cause of the creation of the Demon King, the ruin of the seal, the forgetfulness of the war, the war lasted too long.

These four questions seem to be unrelated to each other, but Ariel always feels that there should be a clue that is vaguely connected to each other. And as long as this clue can be found, then Ariel feels that she may be able to

Able to find a truth that has never been thought of before!

Just now...

These four questions may not be the most urgent matters.

Ariel raised her head, looked at Coco's slightly anxious expression, smiled, and said: "Don't worry, I know what to do next. We will have a meeting after we get to Baiquan City. Before that...

Is there any news about the Blue Bay Imperial Army and the Orion Imperial Army?"

Coco shook her head and said: "Not yet, everything has been too chaotic during this period... We don't even have time to collect the clues of the two imperial armies..."

Ariel thought for a moment and then said, "Go and bring in the mulled cheese."

Coco was slightly startled, but then he followed the instructions, opened the car door, and jumped out. It didn't take long for Sweet Cheese to jump up on the car door. Coco seemed a little worried and wanted to follow, but Ariel still stopped her.

, let the mulled cheese close the car door.

"Sweet cheese, you should be very clear about the current situation, right? Do you have anything in mind?"

Sweet Cheese didn't seem to understand what Ariel's words meant, but he fisted each other, gritted his teeth and said, "I admit it! It was indeed my mistake to attack that brave man. So, I must

I'm going to hit that bard hard in the face with my fist! That bastard dared to lie to us! Even if he healed my injuries, I can't tolerate him, a demon king, tyrannizing in this world!"

Seeing Rummy's confidence, Ariel felt a little relieved. But other than that, the most important thing was what she had to arrange next.

"Sweet Cheese, next, I hope you can make some efforts to seal the Demon King again. Are you willing to help?"

Sweet Cheese patted his chest and then said cheerfully: "Of course! What do you think? I'm sure... hmm? Wait a minute."

Sweet Wine Cheese, who was just about to agree, suddenly thought of something. She turned her head and looked inside the carriage. Then her confident face added a little vigilance and said: "President, please call me alone."

Come out... is it possible that you want me to negotiate peace with that traitor?!"

Sweet Cheese is not stupid. Although her reaction ability is not very outstanding, after experiencing so much training in Ariel's Mermaid Song, this fighter's belief and will are still much stronger than before.

Seeing that she had seen it now, Ariel had nothing to hide. She nodded slightly and said: "Now is not the time for our mermaid army and the imperial army to attack each other. We need to unite as one."

, and work together against the Demon King’s Army. To this end, I must try my best to reconcile all the opposing forces. After much thought, the only one who can stop the Blue Bay Empire from attacking is——”

"President! Do you really think that bastard will stop fighting with us just because I came forward to say a word or two?!"

At that moment, Ariel once again saw emotions called anger and hatred in the girl's eyes.

It was also at this moment that Ariel completely understood that she had almost made an irreparable error in judgment again.

If Sweet Cheese is so concerned about the death of her eldest brother, then what reason does she have to think that Tide Blue will not kill her own sister for the sake of justice? If she really sends Sweet Cheese to Hanhai City, then

What will happen next will definitely not be the imperial army giving up, but the fighter's head hanging on the city wall as a warning to the betrayers.

Thinking of this, Ariel immediately exhaled, and the expression on her face changed to a serious attitude. She nodded slightly and said: "I understand. Sweet wine cheese, this is a problem with my judgment. I will tell you

Apologize."

Sweet Cheese was stunned for a moment, but then the stubbornness on her face immediately weakened, and she put on a sincere expression and said: "President, what I said was a bit too harsh. I also apologize to you."

Ariel waved her hand, thought for a moment and then said: "How far is it from Baiquan City now?"

Sweet Wine Cheese opened the car door, asked a few questions outside, and then came back and said, "We'll probably arrive around noon."

Ariel nodded and then said: "Okay, you can go out. But Sweet Cheese, although I know you shouldn't be asked to negotiate a peace with the Empire, it doesn't mean that you won't take on more difficult tasks in the future.

It is even possible that these things will be more difficult than negotiating a peace with the Imperial Army. When the time comes, will you be able to persist?"

Sweet Cheese nodded without fear, raised his thumb to wipe his nose, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, President! He is just the Demon King! That bard usually looks soft and weak, even if

Even if he becomes a demon king, he won't have much power. I'll punch him in the face when the time comes!"

After saying that, Sweet Wine Cheese opened the door and jumped out.

Seeing the calm and composed expression of Rummy, the youngest member of the entire guild, Ariel knew that she might really be able to continue to rely on this guild.

"alright!"

At the moment, she patted her forehead lightly and began to use the time before arriving at Baiquan City to think about how to deal with the Demon King, and at the same time, how to contact other military forces.
To be continued...
