The two of them glanced at each other silently without saying anything. Then, they raised their necks and saw the bright liquid in the cup quickly flowing into their throats - "The Drunkard" Macuro's behavior was normal, but Li Miss Na was choked again and coughed violently.

Glo shook his head—these two people, one is a mage who is traditionally forbidden to drink alcohol, and the other is an injured person, but they don't have any taboos at all.Maybe the "Witch of Flame" Lina Barros in the game can't be judged by ordinary mages, but Markuro, who has many injuries on his body, is so happy to drink... Although he was not a doctor in his previous life, Glo still knows some basics. physiological common sense.

"Lord Baron, excessive drinking is not conducive to the recovery of injuries."

He opened his mouth to remind.

"Really? But I feel better after drinking these things."

The high concentration of alcohol had already played a role. Makuro opened a pair of red and bloodshot eyes, his voice became higher than usual, he even stretched his two long legs, and hummed some little tunes while lying on his back ——After returning to Clover Manor, he took off his armor [Moonlight] with the help of his servants, cleaned up the wounds on his body, applied ointment, and then wrapped them in a tight white cloth bandage.Glo looked at him as if he saw a talking and moving mummy.

He knew that it would be difficult for him to convince the Baron—Miss Lena Burrows looked like a boiled shrimp after drinking the glass of wine. She tilted her head and giggled twice, no After a while, he fell headlong on the dining table.

"She fell asleep."

Markuro said while holding the wine glass.Glo found that his eyes were bright and unusual, not like he was drunk at all, and the light in those gray-green eyes was flowing, as if he wanted to express something.

"The battle is over, but your and my troubles are not."

Markuro continued, he raised the wine bottle again, and seeing the empty crystal wine glass in front of Glo, he smiled, "Would you like another glass?"

"No, I'm not very used to this too stimulating taste."

Glo waved his hand in refusal.He knew that Markuro had something to say, so he asked tentatively, "My lord baron, did you find something wrong?"

"good."

Markuro nodded, he put down his wine glass, his expression became solemn, "I received a very important news, Leos died. It's this afternoon."

"What... what?"

Glo was shocked for a moment - he knew that there was no Leos von Naldo among the NPCs in Avlon in his previous life, but the admiral was actually dead now.He calmed down and thought for a while, maybe it was because of Leos' death that the local squadron lost control and launched this suicide attack.Compared with reality and memory, the development of everything seems to be full of doubts.

When he looked up, the curtains at the end of his line of sight were rolled up high, and behind the vase on the window sill was a dark and confusing night. In this situation and position, Glo knew that he was no longer a "player". In the vortex of the power struggle in Long, he became the real entrant.He suddenly thought of Dill's deceased. In the conversation he had in the church, both Radia and Bishop Vera had the same conclusion.

A conspiracy of skeletons?

However, how did their claws reach into the Royal Navy and stir up this storm?Glo recalled some of the background stories in the game—in the main plots of the follow-up "Rebellion of Dust" and "Blood Knight", there were intermittent figures of the dead who were causing trouble, and now Afu before the game opened Wasn't that group of guys involved in Long's battle for power?
He didn't speak, but the middle finger and index finger of his right hand came together, tapping the table gently and rhythmically.

"According to the prisoners of war, the Royal Navy finally decided to launch a battle after the death of Leos, and the position of admiral fell to the boy Sai Lun."

"But Mr. Salem doesn't look like an aggressive fellow."

"Of course. I know this guy very well, but this battle doesn't look like the product of personal impulse. They made full preparations, including the Mayflower, Palmeiras, There are also some legionnaires on the battleships who have returned to the port to participate in this battle. It can only be said that it was planned for a long time, but our victory was very reluctant."

Makuro said, maybe because the alcohol rushed into his brain, he spoke a little more than usual. He paused, took a big sip of wine, and took a long breath, "Originally, we also have some understanding of these situations. Prepare, but their choice came too suddenly. By the way, don't you think it's strange? Leos is actually a very conservative general, and the position of admiral fell into the hands of Salem, so he couldn't possibly convince the public and make the decision Such a big decision.”

"Indeed, after the death of Admiral Leos, they lost a supreme and absolute will."

Glo agreed with this. In today's battle, it is not an exaggeration for the soldiers and officers of the Kingdom's Navy to say that they are "united as one", but in the face of such a battle with little hope, what kind of spiritual power is supporting them? So far?

Hate?It's easy to understand those stubborn senior officers, but ordinary soldiers, what are they doing for - no one surrendered, and there was no rout.What is hidden here can no longer be explained by strict military discipline.What's more, they don't belong to the kingdom's first-line legion.

common will?He couldn't help but think of the term "brainwashing"—in a group, the larger the number of members, the longer it takes to make an important decision. The otaku also knew about certain meetings in his previous life. normal.But in Afron's Royal Navy, just after Admiral Leos died, such a battle broke out like a storm——

Unless, someone has been promoting this matter for a long time.But the admiral has been excluded from Macro's analysis. So, what kind of person is causing trouble behind the scenes?

Glo had a vague answer in his mind, and he was thinking about how to express this guess - but at this moment, he saw the dark night outside the window turning into day in this second, like thunder breaking through the black curtain.

But there was no rumble of thunder that followed, and the snow-white light that spread across the sky was fleeting, and Glo seemed to feel an awe-inspiring chill slowly arise in his heart - different from the usual chill caused by catching a cold, This kind of coldness is filled with grayness and deathly silence, which makes people's hair stand on end.

"I think here's our trouble."

Markuro at the small table stood up, Glo looked at him and said, his voice became a little hoarse - with the strength of the baron's awakening level, it is not difficult to distinguish this ray of spreading power, He stepped out a few steps and stood in front of the window. It was like a drizzle of rain falling in the dark night. He stretched out a palm and felt the rain was a little warm and sticky.
