Although Yadi and others no longer had any objections to Lincoln's joining, they were still somewhat resistant to this outsider, so after Lincoln finished speaking, they just nodded politely and didn't say much.
Seeing that everyone was doing this, Li Yi could only smile at Lincoln awkwardly. However, the latter waved his hand generously, obviously not very concerned about this matter.
"Okay, let Lincoln put down his work first. What we have to do now is to go to the Ulan Mountains to find Betina's subordinates. After all, they are our real capital." Li Yi said quickly without wanting to make the atmosphere too awkward.
"Well, okay, let's go now." Everyone said in agreement after hearing this.
There was nothing to say at the moment. Li Yi and his group walked into the Ulan Mountains under the leadership of Betina. Soon, they found the dead soldiers who had already assembled here.
When we just saw these dead soldiers, everyone's eyes lit up. When we heard Bettina talk about these dead soldiers, Li Yi and others just sighed. But until now when we really saw these people, the same idea came to our minds at the same time - this is the real elite force.
Seeing Betina with people arrived, a middle-aged man about forty years old walked out of the team of the dead soldiers. After walking in front of Betina, the middle-aged man immediately knelt on one knee and said respectfully to Betina: "Assess the eldest princess, confer the princess's orders, the 70 dead men in the Shadow Tooth Army were assembled, waiting for the princess's review."
Seventy dead soldiers with a sense of silence and aura were kneeling on one knee neatly. When they looked at Betina, their expressions on their faces were extremely firm.
Seeing such a team, even Li Yi, a veteran who was once considered a battlefield, could not help but be shocked by the Xiaosha aura on these dead soldiers.
Looking at the dead soldier in front of him with expressionless expression, Betina spoke after being silent for a long time. However, when she was talking, her tone began to feel a little excited: "General Ivan, thank you for your hard work." In a simple sentence, Betina's voice was a little trembling.
Seeing Betina so excited, the man in black who was kneeling in front raised his head and said calmly: "The princess is serious, and I will not work hard at all."
"Haha, okay, don't exchange greetings here for now. Bettina, since your people are here, let's go to the city to have a good talk first, and by the way, find a place for these warriors to settle down." Seeing that Bettina and the two people named Ivan had some restraints between their words, Li Yi hurriedly reminded him.
Hearing Li Yi's words, Betina recovered from the excitement just now. She smiled awkwardly, reached out to help Ivan up, and said with concern: "General Ivan, since you have come, don't spend the night in this deep mountain. It's not the first few years now, and even if you go to the city to stay, you won't be seen."
"Well, thank you for your kindness. But I just want to report to the princess one thing. After you have heard of it, we will talk about the accommodation problem tonight." After standing up, Ivan did not accept Betina's kindness, but instead spoke up to another thing.
"Oh? What's the matter? Did General Ivan encounter any problems?" Seeing the solemn expression on Ivan's face, Betina couldn't help asking curiously.
"This..." Betina asked the reason, but Ivan did not speak immediately. Instead, he looked at Li Yi and others behind Betina with caution, and then looked at Betina for inquiring.
Seeing Ivan's behavior, Betina, Li Yi and others also guessed the concerns in the veteran's heart. In order not to give the other party any bad impression, Li Yi immediately turned around and prepared to take Yadi and others away first.
But just as Li Yi was about to walk away, Betina called Li Yi, then turned to Ivan and said, "General Ivan, these people are my friends, and they have absolutely no character to say. If you have anything, just say it here, don't treat them as outsiders."
"But..." Although Betina had already said this, Ivan still seemed to be reluctant to speak. Ivan seemed to be wary of Li Yi and his group of people.
Seeing Ivan like this, Betina couldn't help but feel a little angry. She was afraid that Ivan's repeated distrust of Li Yi and others would cause Li Yi and others to feel a grudge. But just when she was about to become popular, Betina accidentally saw General Ivan's eyes. From Ivan's eyes, Betina saw all the vicissitudes. This vicissitudes were caused by running around for the destruction of the Sai Empire. At this moment, the anger in Betina's heart disappeared in an instant.
Smiling at Ivan, Betina stared at Ivan very seriously and said, "General Ivan, they are all their own people. Do you understand? They all know my identity and have decided to help us restore our country."
When General Ivan heard Betina say this, he immediately showed a look of excitement in his eyes. Before, Ivan was wary of Li Yi and others, one because Li Yi and others were outsiders to them, and the other was because Li Yi and his group had the lowest strength in the third level of strength. How could such a group of unknown people not be wary of Ivan, who had been living in the dark all year round? But at this moment, he heard Betina say that these strong men with great strength were all those who helped Betina restore the country. In a sense, they were actually their own comrades. Seeing that there were suddenly so many strong men, how could this old general who had always hoped to restore the country, not be excited.
After adjusting his emotions, Ivan first gave apologetic gaze to Li Yi and others. After seeing Li Yi and the others showing kind smiles, Ivan turned his head and said to Betina: "Grand Princess, Mo Jiang received a message from Vadar on the way to come. I originally wanted to rush over immediately after receiving the news, but because the orders of the Grand Princess were ahead, Mo Jiang had to bring these subordinates to gather with the Grand Princess first, and by the way, he could also listen to the Grand Princess' opinions on this matter." While speaking, Ivan carefully took out a tip from his arms.
Listening to Ivan's story and seeing the solemn expression on Ivan's face at this moment, Betina knew that the tip Ivan wanted to show her must be a bad news. So after the tip, Betina took a deep breath, and then took out a simple letter from the tip with a serious look on her face.
Originally, he was already looking at the text message with the worst plan, but when Betina really saw what was said in the letter, she still couldn't help but exclaim.
Hearing Betina's exclamation, Li Yi and others were worried and rushed to Betina's side, and then asked anxiously: "What's wrong, Betina, what happened."
But at this time, Betina was stunned and did not react at all to Li Yi and the others' questions.
Seeing Betina's appearance, Li Yi couldn't help frowning. When he saw the letter in Betina's hand, he guessed that Betina's current situation must be caused by this letter. He immediately stopped asking, but took the letter from Betina's hand and looked at it seriously.
On the small white paper, there are only two simple sentences - the little princess is in trouble, and Alvin died in battle. She came to Xicheng for rescue, and she was in a hurry.
Looking at the two simple sentences in the letter, although Li Yi didn't know who the people mentioned in the letter were, from the three words "little princess", Li Yi could guess that this must be one of the help left by the Sai Empire. However, the little princess seemed not as cautious as Betina, so she was surrounded by the Tianlan Empire.
As he guessed in his heart, Li Yi reached out and patted Betina who had been stunned by the side, and then said, "Betina, what are you thinking? Since the matter has been born, please find a way."
After being shot by Li Yi, Betina woke up from the daze. After hearing Li Yi's words, Betina woke up to Ivan as if she was in a dream, "General Ivan, when did you receive this news?"
"Report to the princess, this news was not received by me, but by Fan Jia at the border of the Tianlan Empire. He only passed the news to me after meeting with us yesterday." After saying that, Ivan turned around and called the man in black named Fan Jia behind him to Betina.
The man in black named Fan Jia looked only about thirty years old, about the same age as Li Yi... but only had a level of strength. After coming to Betina, Fan Jia was about to salute, but he was supported by Betina. Then Betina asked anxiously: "Ban Jia, tell me when did you receive this news?"
"Report to the princess, this news was received three days ago. At that time, I had not received the summoning order from the eldest princess. I was planning to pass this order to you, but I received your summoning order. I immediately brought someone to meet you. I met General Ivan yesterday, so I handed the letter to General Ivan first." Fan Jia lowered his head and told Betina completely about the process of receiving the message.
After listening to Fan Jia's story, Betina didn't speak for a long time. I don't know what Betina was thinking at this moment, and Li Yi knew that this woman must be in a mess now. So without waiting for Betina to speak, Li Yi asked from the side: "Betina, that little princess should be your sister, where did they secretly show off before, who was that guy named Alvin?" After asking several questions in a row, Li Yi was waiting for Betina's reply.
After hearing Li Yi's question, Betina woke up from her daze again. Looking at Li Yi, her face revealed an anxious expression. Betina spoke: "The little princess mentioned in the letter is naturally my sister. Her name is Elena. For the sake of caution, after escaping from the Senna Royal City, she and I separated and secretly developed power. That Ewen was our brother. At that time, he led Elena to show off in the Sai Empire. When the Sai Empire's uprising army exploded, the two of them also established a strong force with the help of some other dead soldiers."
Listening to Betina's story quietly, Li Yi roughly understood the current situation. After a little silence, Li Yi asked again: "So, how much has the strong power you mentioned have been exposed? Also, is Xicheng their only base? If you have been forced to Xicheng, how long do you think they can last?"
After Li Yi asked this, Betina immediately fell into deep thought. After thinking for a while, Betina spoke again: "A few years ago, they took advantage of the riots of the Sai Empire and took the opportunity to pull up their own teams. They were just afraid that some people who were interested would secretly plot, so they did not reveal their identity. When Lei Teng Da 6 invaded, the two of them did not intervene in the battle between the Da 6, but instead blindly displayed their own power. According to my estimate, they should have an army of about 100,000 now, and that Xicheng is actually not their base camp. But Xicheng, as a grain production area, is a city that cannot be lost."
"Since that's the case, instead of worrying here, we might as well set out to rush to the Sai Empire immediately. After all, we can relieve the pressure of them one day earlier. You said before that the city is not their base camp. If they really see that the city is beyond their control, then they should not blindly defend, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army." After listening to Betina's story, Li Yi analyzed calmly.
After hearing Li Yi's analysis, Betina's panic finally decreased a lot. She looked at Li Yi with gratitude, and Betina said to Li Yi: "According to what you say, the current situation is not too bad, right? As long as we rush over, we should be able to help them a little."
Seeing Betina say this, Li Yi finally couldn't help but curse in his heart. He had always thought Betina was a person with good psychological qualities, but now he is so panicked when facing such a situation. At this moment, Li Yi really doubted his own eyes.
However, since it has reached this point, Li Yi can no longer put down the wrong side. Facing Bettina's whimsical thoughts, Li Yi could only say patiently: "The situation cannot be said to be not bad, but we cannot panic because it is too bad. What we can do now is just to rush over as soon as possible and then be the scene so that we can analyze the situation in detail and then find a solution, right?"
Li Yi now plays a role in stabilizing the morale of the army. Faced with this eldest princess who is panicked when encountering problems, Li Yi really doesn't know how to follow her in the future.
After Li Yi said this, Betina finally calmed down. She turned her head and looked at Ivan. Betina asked, "General Ivan, what do you think we should do now."
"Your Highness Princess, what this friend said just now is right. All we can do now is to rush to the little princess and the others as soon as possible. Only by actually rushing there can we find a specific solution." At this time, Ivan's idea was very consistent with Li Yi.
Seeing Ivan say the same thing, Betina nodded calmly. When she looked at Li Yi again, Betina's eyes showed a look of shame. Facing Li Yi's smile, Betina said awkwardly: "Haha, sorry, I heard the news that my elder brother died in battle just now, which has a great impact on me. After all, we grew up together, so when we heard this news, we were accidentally too panicked and made you laugh."
