Two days later.

Grey Fort, no winter city.

“That was the case at the time...” Ashes recounted the battle process in detail, “when the fire was extinguished, the lightning searched north for about 100 kilometers and found some traces left by the enemy.”According to the on-site analysis, it should be caused by the spider demon passing through the forest, the number is not large, probably about three or four."

Due to the interruption of forest communication, it was not until the evening of the next day that Roland learned the news of the attack on the leaves, and the next morning he immediately let Tilly and Wendy drive the Seagull to the terminal and take the party back to the winter.

The ash was fine, and it seemed to have been almost unharmed, but the leaves were the plane that had been lifted off.

Fortunately, the twilight has planted a symbiotic species in her body, although the leaves have been unconscious, from the symbiosis, not showing too much pain, which also means that the spiritual consumption of the leaves is much greater than the actual damage.

Roland pressed down the muse and moved his eyes to the big map on his desk.

The whole attack had a clear picture in his mind.

The devil commander did notice the strangeness of the hidden forest - after all, the railway line turned a corner from here and extended all the way in the direction of the takira.But instead of attacking the trenches and barbed wire of the terminal, it directly targeted the witch.

A small group of people moved nearly five hundred kilometers away from the ruins of Takila to the northern end of the forest - such a long march was destined to be impossible to support the battle of the big troops, presumably the spiders in addition to the arson task, but also carried a lot of red fog cans.In a sense, this is also a motorized battle of the enemy.

Burning the forest is but a cover for the witch's attention, and now I want to come, regardless of whether there is an emergency strategy for the fire, the forest controller is likely to stay in place and pay attention to the further development of the situation, and the enemy seizes this moment.

Probably in the eyes of the devil, it is the leaves that support the logistics of the First Army.

As long as the forest controller is killed, the crisis on the front line can be lifted and mankind will not retreat.

Although the intention is somewhat biased, but to calculate this step, it has explained the degree of the devil's understanding of magic - accurate guessing of the leaf ability form, and targeted beheading attack, with the individual strength of long-distance attack, the required advance and retreat time is calculated, can be described as each step is interlocking.This could not have been achieved without a deep understanding of the use of magic.

He even suspected that the devil had ever seen a similar ability to leaf.

Although the enemy's surprise team returned according to the original way, it would take at least a week, and it was not difficult to catch up with them after the distinctive footprints of the spiders, but it was not of much significance.The deuters who can fly autonomously can leave the squad to escape first, and the pursuers can easily bite back, and the more sent can only kill a few spider demons and some lower demons.

Similarly, there is no better counter-measure to the secret actions of this elite team of the enemy, and most important witches have divine punishments for witch protection around them, and erratic like leaves, Maisie, and lightning, how to arrange protection can not be dripped.Fortunately, there are not many high-level demons with such abilities, and there will be obvious magic signs when they rush at full speed, and as long as they will withdraw first, the enemy will not be so easy to achieve.

Another thing that matters is that the demonic person talks to the ashes.

Satan...does he speak?

Also as a higher-order devil, Capradabi, who is captured alive, does not have this ability, and cannot even communicate with the mind through Camilla.

“Learning is the basis of evolution."

“There are countless things that can change in hundreds of years, but you live the same as yesterday.”"

“Before the first battle of divine purposes began, someone came into contact with the devil... a human being who passed on knowledge to them."

The Ashes retelling words and the rumors mentioned by Pasha alternately came to Roland’s mind.

Somehow, he always felt that the demon-bearer revealed a sense of pride when he mentioned hundreds of years, as if it had witnessed countless changes.

Is it the devil from the era of the Federation... or even earlier?

Did you learn the human language?

But... it’s also incredible.

Just as Roland was brooding, Wendy’s voice suddenly came from outside the office.

"Sh majesty," she said, pushing the door open, "the leaves are awake."

"I am coming," Roland jerked up, looking up at the ashes, "will you come with me?"

The superhuman nodded their heads.

"Yes," he said, as he walked past each other, "I forgot to say before, thank you."

Seemingly unscathed, does not mean that there is really no harm, only close to the will notice, the ash face and finger joints, have left a few shallow scars.

The whirlwind that can blow the leaves will naturally not be as soft as the spring breeze, and such small wounds will not stay on the extraordinary for more than a day, but it still does not heal.

In other words, if there is a mistake, it may be fatally damaged and irreparably damaged.

The intensity of this battle is obviously not as simple as she says.

The ash calmly accepted the thanks, but she only lowered her eyelids slightly, and looked at Roland with golden eyes, "Treat Tily well."

“Of course, even if you don’t say it—” Roland licked his mouth and understood what the other person meant.That in itself was the right thing to do, just as she saved the leaves.It turned out that the extraordinary people who seemed to rectums would have such a mind, and he couldn't help but smile, "Let's go."

...

Into the bedroom of the leaves, the house is full of people.

Anna, the Nightingale, the Tily, the books, the mystery moon... almost all the first witches who joined the alliance gathered here, and when they saw Roland's arrival, they all gave up an aisle.

In the crowd, he saw the leaves that had sat up.

Her long green hair was a little messy and slightly pale, but she didn’t feel too much hagligible.

Her eyes are still bright.

"Son," said the leaf in a low voice, "it worries you."

“You’re okay...” Roland relieved, and the previous coma was caused by too much mental exhaustion.But he also knows that this sentence "it's okay" is really a little reluctant, the leaves are also similar to the lightning "curse", was forced to interrupt the jungle heart state caused by the internal trauma still exists, at most can only say that it will not endanger life."I have heard the ashes say, you have to rest, do not have to worry about the forest for a while."As for your injury, I will find a way—”

She shook her head, "No, your majesty, please let me go back to the front."

“The leaves!”The Nightinge could not stop speaking.

“I know what everyone thinks, but I don’t think lying in bed will help me a little bit of the situation, will I?”The leaves spoke slowly, but the tone was clear: "Whether in the forest of enchantment or in the city of no winter, the curse will not disappear, so it does not make sense to rest."

“But...” Wendy muttered.

"And as long as I am in the forest for a day, the communication between the two places can be maintained, the test field will not be abandoned, the materials needed on the front line, I can also help the transfer, which can be more or less helpful for the goal of defeating the devil."Which of the two is the better choice, can you say at a glance?”She took a slight breath and tried to laugh, "Don't worry, this time I see something wrong, I must choose to withdraw first."

Everyone couldn’t speak for a moment.

Roland took a deep breath, too... he should have guessed it.If the leaves are not like this, how can it be possible to walk all the way from the Lands of the End to the border town with both feet and bring all the surviving sisters back here?

She was like a forest, with a tough heart hidden beneath the soft exterior.

"I know," he answered, after a moment's silence, "but you must promise me that no one can act alone until the demonic spell with the power of the curse is killed."

He looked at the ashes, “Can you please take care of her during this time?”

Ash and Tilly looked at each other, then said, "Leave it to me."
