On the tallest sentry tower outside Aru Village, Candice stood by a dim bonfire, wiping her spear in silence.

There was a small pot on the bonfire, and in the pot was boiling a bit of indistinguishable paste. It had been overheated, and its original appearance was completely unrecognizable.

The smell of food didn't attract Candice's attention at all. She just wiped the gun blade over and over again. Senhan's gun blade reflected the light of the fire, projecting strange spots of light around him.

Suddenly, a vigorous figure climbed up the tower and announced his identity before Candice's sharp eyes stared at him.

"It's me, Desiya."

Hearing the familiar voice, Candice slowly lowered her eyes and continued her movements.

Desiya was stung by the murderous aura elicited by her friend. She calmed down for a while before pretending to be natural and went to the campfire. She persuaded in a low voice: "Candice, you can get some sleep. I'll keep watch."

Candice shook her head slowly.

"But you haven't slept for three days and three nights, how can your body withstand it?" Desiya said anxiously.

"You have to fight hard if you can't withstand it." Candice said calmly, stood up and looked at the dark Aru Village, "We can't leave the slightest chance to those people, otherwise Aru Village will be doomed."

Desiya was silent for a while, and couldn't help but ask in a low voice: "Candice, tomorrow is the last day, what if..."

"I will not surrender."

Before Desiya could finish asking, Candice gave her answer.

"Seriously?" Disiya looked surprised.

"Although I didn't go to Xumi City to receive education for a period of time like you, Aru Village does not lack information. Don't think of me as an uneducated village girl." Candice rolled her eyes at her, "That fee Although Ertade seems to be powerful, he was just lucky enough to pick up a batch of weapons sealed in the Red King era. He has neither a stable rear nor sufficient sources of troops, and will fail sooner or later. Joining a side that is doomed to fail is just a matter of time. It will cause Aru Village and the desert people to lose their future."

"Yes, yes! I've always wanted to tell you this! Hehe..." Disiya scratched her hair in embarrassment, and then angrily hit the ground and said, "Damn that idiot Rahman, he can't even do such a simple thing." I can’t even understand the reason! I’m actually going to defend those idiots!”

"Rachman is not an idiot." Candice laughed and shook her head. "This guy looks rough, but he is actually very smart. How can he not understand this?"

"Then he still wants to be the leader of the capitulation faction?"

Candice sighed helplessly, "Feltad is strong on the outside and capable on the inside. If you stick to Aru Village, you will have a future. You can understand this truth, and Rahman can naturally understand it, but those low-level mercenaries in Aru Village, Businessmen and civilians don’t understand.”

"They can only see the death threat in front of them. They only know that if they don't surrender, they may lose their property and life immediately. You can't blame them. They are just small people and can only see the road in front of them..."

"But once the fears of these little people are taken advantage of by someone with serious intentions and cause chaos within Aru Village, our defense line will probably collapse."

"The fear brought by Fertad is real and cannot be eliminated, so internal chaos is inevitable. In this case, only by controlling the chaos within a certain range can the situation be maintained."

"I think this is why Rahman, who has retired, has to stand up and be the leader of those people..."

Disiya's eyes widened, "You mean... Rahman is one of our own?"

"At least not an enemy." Candice shook her head, "But I guess he can't keep delaying it. After all, Fertard's deadline is coming soon."

"Then if the messenger from the Holy Order never comes..."

"Then I will break out with those who are willing to follow me! In short, there must be some desert people who insist on standing on the side of the Grass God! But in this way, the rebels will get the supplies from Aru Village, and this rebellion will probably be delayed. long time……"

After saying this, both of them fell into silence.

They all understand that if the rebellion continues, at least the leeward erosion area and the column sand plain area close to the anti-sand wall will be beaten to pieces. However, this is the area with the highest concentration of oases in the entire desert area, and it is still in the desert area. Eighty percent of the desert people living here live here.

How many families will be torn apart by this chaos? How many more children will lose their parents?

To put it more pessimistically, after this battle, how many desert people will be left in the desert?

Although she knew this, Candice was unable to change the situation at this time.

She knew very well that at this point, the fate of the desert people was no longer in her control. How many people could survive this chaos depended entirely on the Grass God in Sumeru City and the person in charge of the Order. A great sage from Liyue.

However, in a different location, even Candice herself had to admit that sticking to Kavanyi, blocking the sand wall, and letting the rebels starve to death in the leeward erosion area was the safest way to solve this rebellion!

The uncertain future and the deep feeling of powerlessness gnawed at her heart like ants, making her unable to help but feel depressed. She picked up her spear and was about to leave the tower.

"I'll go on patrol!"

At this moment, a sharp copper whistle suddenly cut through the night and pierced her eardrums!

This is the sentinel on the periphery warning!

In the surrounding fortifications, the Aru Village Guard soldiers who were sleeping soundly woke up one after another. The captain who led them immediately yelled and ordered them to enter the defensive position!

"Don't panic! Shooter, move forward and prepare to cover! Pay attention to the road village at the intersection!"

Seeing that her soldiers were responding calmly, Candice nodded secretly in her heart, her annoyance relieved a little, and she even hoped that the rebels could launch a large-scale attack so that she could go to the battlefield to vent her bad breath!

She suppressed her temper and looked up in the direction of the whistle, only to see several fire dragons gathering in one direction a few kilometers away from her sentry post in the northeast. Under each fire dragon, there are naturally rebel fighters lurking outside Aru Village!

Under the light of those gathered fires, a group of men and horses could be faintly seen. Without raising any fire for lighting, everyone was working hard to urge the beasts of burden and speeding towards Aru Village!

Could it be that the person who came was a messenger from the Imperial Academy?

No, the person coming must be a messenger from the Order Academy!

Candice understood it in an instant, turned around to look at Disiya, and saw that the other person's face was also full of joy!

The two best friends wielded their weapons with great tacit understanding, jumped down from the tall sentry tower, and began to loudly call for soldiers!

The messenger from the Holy Order must be brought in!
