Chapter 337 Assemble, Erwin Line of Defense! (5)
Why does this sound sound so familiar?
This was the first thought in Su Yang's heart when he heard this voice, but he couldn't remember where he had heard this voice.
At the same time, Han Menglan and the three girls also turned their confusing eyes to Su Yang, hoping that Su Yang could give them an answer.
"Don't look at me, although I sound very familiar, I can't remember where I heard it." Su Yang shrugged helplessly.
"Haha, my friend Su Yang, it's been a long time since you haven't seen me, so you've forgotten me. Well, I'll remind you with a friendly word: Senior Linas, the Iron Sword Master." The familiar voice came from around again.
Uncle Linus?!!
Whenever Linus was mentioned, Su Yang immediately remembered who the owner of the voice was.
"Is that you, Grand Duke of Bane?"
"Haha, good boy, I am indeed smart enough. I deserve to be the one who defeated my bastard boy." With a loud laugh, a middle-aged man dressed in elegant and luxuriously and looked powerful walked out from the side of Su Yang and others.
After seeing the true face of the visitor, Su Yang also smiled. It was indeed the patriarch of the Bashut family, the father of Barn, and the actual steward of the southern province of the Caesar Empire, the Grand Duke Douglas Bashut.
"Hello, Grand Duke."
Su Yang bowed slightly: "I wonder what the Grand Duke has to ask for a boy?"
The Grand Duke of Bashut smiled: "If I say it was because you defeated me, do you believe it?"
Su Yang was stunned, and then replied awkwardly: "Uh... don't believe it."
"Why?"
"Barn lost to me only the realm. In a sense, we actually got a draw. When Baen's Dou Qi realm comes, he can naturally easily beat me."
Slap
As soon as Su Yang finished speaking, Grand Duke Bashut applauded directly, and the crisp applause seemed particularly loud in this quiet environment.
"Well, I'm sure that the person that Senior Linus likes. If you don't say anything else, this measure alone is much better than that boy in my family." The Grand Duke of Barthout did not hide his appreciation for Su Yang.
"The Grand Duke is apologized, but I don't know what happened to the Grand Duke when he comes to find a boy this time?" Su Yang asked.
"You must have heard of Lilith's affairs. This time I was entrusted by a senior to come here to intercept you." The Grand Duke of Bashut suddenly gave Su Yang an unexpected answer.
Is it a special trip to intercept me? Or is it entrusted by a senior? Who is this senior? Uncle Linus? No, it is impossible. Uncle Linus knows the relationship between him and Lilith. Moreover, with Uncle Linus's favor for Lilith, he is probably more anxious than him when something happened to Lilith, so he would not let Grand Duke Bashut intercept him. Maybe who can let Grand Duke Bashut do such a great effort to do this except Uncle Linus, who has taught him? Could it be that the president of the Magic Guild, Fashen Sharan?
A series of questions kept popping up in Su Yang's heart, and one speculation after another kept flashing through Su Yang's heart.
Seeing that Su Yang was confused by his words, the Grand Duke of Barthut smiled and said, "Okay, don't guess, I can tell you clearly that the senior who entrusted me this time was not Senior Linus or Lord Saran, but someone else. As for who it is, I can't say that you will know naturally when you meet him at the Alvin line of defense."
Is there someone else?
Su Yang was completely confused, but the Grand Duke of Bashut was unwilling to say that Su Yang had no choice but to do anything to him.
"Okay, since the eldest duke is unwilling to say it, the boy doesn't force it. The boy just wants to know what the eldest duke is intercepting the boy?" Su Yang simply asked with another question.
"I can tell you this."
"I listen carefully, boy."
"You must know about the Cave of Whispering, so I won't say much about this. What I want to say is what happened after His Majesty and Lord Sharan decided to attack the apostle of the Cave of Whispering." The smiley expression on the face of the Grand Duke of Bashut disappeared instantly, and then he told Su Yang the heavy tone that everything that happened in the Forest of Gran a few days ago.
It turned out that after Su Yang got up from the Flame Academy, the situation of Gran Forest also changed drastically. A large number of monsters and non-warfare species began to approach the Gran Forest from all directions. In just a few days, its number increased from hundreds or thousands to tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands.
Under such pressure, the Caesar Empire, which had already marched towards the Caesar Cave, had been marching towards the Cave of Whisar Cave, also withdrew the Alvin line from it and brought back the latest information about the Cave of Whisar Cave.
In addition to the continuous wailing sounds in the current wailing cave, a large number of insect corpses appeared near the cave. Although the insects vary in size, they are all the same species, a kind of insect that is as white as a silkworm pupa.
At the same time, those goblins and Minotaurs, whose IQ was not high or even very low, actually began to build defense lines on the periphery of the Whispering Cave in an organized manner, and captured the lonely humans for imprisonment. As for why this was done, no one in the entire Caesar Empire could give a reasonable explanation. Therefore, after discussing with the Magic Guild, the Caesar Empire decided to suspend the operation of the Whispering Cave and sent a small group of reconnaissance teams to rush into the forest to investigate, and then make plans after finding out the situation.
At the same time as this decision was made, some information about Su Yang came from the mission to the Flame Empire. So in order to avoid Su Yang diving into the Forest of Gran because of Lilith, a strong man invited by Fassaran asked the Grand Duke of Bassat to set up obstacles in some towns along the way to see if Su Yang could be intercepted. After all, the Caesar territory near the Forest of Gran is a southern province controlled by the Grand Duke of Bassat. In this regard, the Grand Duke of Bassat has an advantage that others cannot match.
So, not long after the order was conveyed by the Grand Duke of Bashuth, Su Yang and his group rushed in on their own initiative. This was a coincidence.
After learning the whole story, Su Yang's doubts disappeared a lot, he still worried: "Great Duke, will delay the pace of action on the Whispering Cave have any impact on Lilith's body?"
"I know you guys can't worry about Lilith. You can rest assured about this. As Lilith's teacher, how could Lord Saran watch Lilith suffer? So before leaving for the Alvin defense line, Lord Saran directly used a magic guild's treasure and an eighth-level holy light barrier scroll. With this holy light barrier, it can ensure that Lilith's body will not deteriorate in three months." said the Grand Duke of Bashut.
"That's good."
When Su Yang heard this, he felt relieved and then gave Han Menglan apologetic look.
Seeing this, Han Menglan shook her head slightly and signaled that Su Yang would not take it too seriously. On the way, Su Yang also informed Han Menglan of everything about Lilith and her strange relationship with Lilith. To Su Yang's surprise, Han Menglan not only did not have any extreme reactions to this, but also asked Su Yang to promise that Lilith must be cured.
After learning this, Su Yang had to sigh in his heart: A woman's heart is under the sea.
"Okay, it's getting late today. You can rest here with your friends. I specially ordered someone to arrange this yard for you. Have a good rest. Tomorrow morning, we will rush to the Alvin defense line together." The Grand Duke of Bashut patted Su Yang on the shoulder and said.
"Thank you, the Grand Duke." Su Yang thanked.
"You guys are so kind."
After laughing again, the Grand Duke of Bashut walked out of the house with his hands behind his back.
"Then what, since everything has been cleared, Meng Lan, the boss lady and Zero, you all go to rest. Anyway, the yard is quite big." Su Yang waved.
"What about you?" Han Menglan looked at Su Yang worriedly.
"I'm fine."
Su Yangqiang smiled, but anyone could see the fatigue under that smile.
......
Night gradually comes
Su Yang lay alone on the tiles above the yard, looking at the moon that was about to turn into a round shape in the sky, quietly thinking about some things.
"I knew you were here."
A cheerful female voice suddenly came from his ears.
"Why are you here?"
Su Yang asked without raising his head.
"I can't sleep. I originally wanted to go up the roof to drink, but I didn't expect that someone had already taken the lead here. How about it, I don't mind if I have a bar here."
"You drink it, and you can give me some, too." Su Yang whispered.
Gurgling, the sound of drinking sounded in my ears.
"Well... it's so satisfying. I haven't been so happy during this period of time, so I've been so happy." The woman handed Su Yang the golden wine gourd in her hand.
Su Yang took the wine gourd and stared at it for a while, without any movement.
"What are you talking about? Do you still remember the two poems I recited when you and I first met?" the woman asked.
"How can I relieve my worries? Only drunkenly relieve my worries?" Su Yang recalled.
"Yes, why, relieve me, worry...only drunk, relieve my sorrow..." The woman repeatedly recited these two lines of poetry and asked, "How is it?"
"What's it?"
"This is my poem."
"Tell the truth?"
"certainly."
"It's a mess." Su Yang suddenly said something like this.
The woman was stunned and then laughed: "Yes, it's just a mess. These two lines of poetry were spoken out after the old man in my family got drunk. He said a lot of words, but I only remember these two lines. Su Yang, remember, there are no worries that cannot be solved when you get drunk. If you have it, then get drunk again. When you wake up, you will work hard to go on."
"Well said."
Su Yang raised his hand and raised his head, and the golden wine slid into his abdomen through his throat.
