Volume 1: The Ritual of the Abyss Chapter 40: The Prophet
"Cooperation?"
Just as Natila was looking puzzled, Lena also heard the movement, ran over, and saw the visitor.
He turned to Natila and asked, "Who is he?"
Seeing this, Krabi gracefully bowed to Lina and said, "Hello, this beautiful young lady, my name is Krabi." ”
"Hello Krabi. Lina returned the salute.
Then Lena added, "I just heard it...... Cooperation, huh?"
"Hmm. Krabi nodded, "I'm going to work with you." ”
"What cooperation?" asked Lina, "if we want to find hearts together, we don't have to, because we haven't found them either." ”
Hearing this, Krabi smiled: "I'm not here because of this. And, who's to say you didn't find it?" Krabi gestured to the snake beside him.
Lina frowned, then looked at Natila.
Natila shrugged her shoulders and said, "On the head of this snake, I found this. ”
As he spoke, he took out the red heart in his arms and showed it to Linna, and quickly withdrew it.
Obviously, this is deliberately preventing Krabi.
And Krabi saw it, and said, "There is no need for me to do this. ”
Then, in front of the two of them, he took out three red hearts from his pocket.
“...... You see, I'm not going to trouble you for a heart. ”
"What are you...... How to find it. Lina looked at the three hearts in surprise.
You know, she and Natila searched for a day, but they couldn't find one.
The only one was sent by this snake.
Then, I heard Krabi say with a blank face: "This thing is not difficult to find." As soon as I left the meeting place, I picked one up on the ground.
When I went to bed at noon, another one fell from the tree, and I ...... just now."
Krabi pointed to the jungle behind him, "There, I picked up another one, three in total." ”
"Uh......"
At this moment, both Natila and Lina felt a kind of contempt from the European Emperor, and the two non-chieftains were staring at each other with big eyes at the moment.
Then, they gave each other a look and made up their minds.
"Okay! Cooperate with each other!!"
Although he didn't know what was going on, seeing the change in the attitude of the two, Krabi also showed a pleasant smile and nodded heavily: "Hmm." ”
So the three of them happily sat around the fire and began to talk.
"Since you're not here for the Red Heart, then why do you want to cooperate with us? With the Red Heart, you can find a place to hide and wait until the end of the assessment. Lena asked.
Hearing Linna's question, Krabi smiled and said, "Who told you that if you get the heart, the assessment will be done?"
"What do you mean by that?" said Lina, frowning.
"Think back to what Captain Deli and Examiner Kajna said at the beginning of the test. ”
Lina and Natila glanced at each other, both puzzled, and shook their heads together, "I don't remember." ”
"Sure enough. No wonder you're obsessed with hearts. Krabi gave a knowing expression.
Then, he began to explain.
At that time, both Captain Deli and Kadena said that this assessment was based on the team and supplemented by individual scores.
And now, we are all led astray by the natural words of the examiner of Dusk. Regard the personal score as the main score, thinking that as long as you find the heart, you can get a good score, but in fact, this is simply a mistake in priority.
Because this is only a relatively low percentage of individual scores.
Our real task is to work together as a team to find hearts and then distribute them based on internal voting. Just as the man at the beginning said.
Because, this is a team task. And as long as we work together better, the higher the total score.
When the time comes, the higher the ranking in each squad!
And that's the right solution to this task!"
When the words fell, Lina and Natilla both felt a look of surprise on their faces.
"It's... Wouldn't it be like we are fighting on our own as we are now?"
"Well, that's right. Krabi nodded.
Natila also reacted at this moment: "No wonder...... I said why the examiner didn't give any clues, so let's play peek-a-boo in this jungle. It turned out that this was not an individual task, but a team task. ”
"Yes, thirty people, each in a different area, it only takes half a day to search this jungle. But if it's an individual, you can't find it even by the end of the assessment.
And even if you find a heart at the last moment, because the main score is too low, it is equivalent to running for nothing and going out directly. Krabi continued.
"Hiss......" Lina couldn't help but gasp, "This examiner, this is digging a pit for us to jump?"
"The most outrageous thing is that we all jumped in. Natila added.
"So, what we need to do now is to notify them of this news, and before the end of the assessment, unite them and get team points!"
"That's a good idea. Can...... Why are you looking for us. Lena voiced her inner doubts.
Then, I saw that Krabi suddenly took out a coin, showed a mysterious smile, and said, "Because ...... It's a choice of fate. ”
Watching Krabi's action, a word suddenly came to mind.
Immediately, Lina was surprised and said, "You are a prophet?!!
Krabi nodded slightly: "Correct." ”
......
The other side.
By the time Greles and Chen Mo returned to the town, it was already nightfall.
The town was plunged into darkness. Only in some hotels and taverns, you can still see a little light.
"You're back. Ginal said as he looked at the two who had returned.
"Hmm. Chen Mo smiled slightly.
"I guess I'm tired after a long day's walk, right? There's still rice cereal soup in the kitchen, do you want a bowl of it?" asked Jinal.
"If you can. Chen Mo nodded and replied.
"Well, okay. Then go up first, and I'll send you over in a moment." ”
"Then I'm bothering you. Chen Mo thanked.
Then, with Greiles, he went upstairs and went back to his room.
"It's so tiring. As soon as Greiles entered the room, he fell straight down on the couch.
"Come on, are you still tired?" Chen Mo looked incredulous.
"You don't understand, I'm tired. "Look at me, I was supposed to take care of Linna." Now, some trivial things have been picked up. ”
Chen Mo rolled his eyes, spread his hands, and said, "How is this Shadow Church matter a trivial matter?"
"I shouldn't have let Lena take this test in the first place!" said Grayles, "and that way, I wouldn't be in trouble, and Lena wouldn't have to be exposed." ”
“...... You've changed,. ”
“?”
Then, I saw that Chen Mo suddenly showed a sad expression and said: "In the past, you were not jealous and hateful, but related to the abyss, it was like being beaten with chicken blood." Right now...... Alas. ”
"It's no longer the case. Greiles pouted, "Besides, don't you pretend to me here, aren't you pretty much the same?"
Follow Greylers' gaze. I saw that Chen Mo at this time was also lying on the sofa like Graylers.
"You know what, I'm calling it rest!"
"Bah!" Graylers gave Chen Mo a roll of his eyes.
That's when it happened.
"Buckle"
There was a knock on the door.
"It's me, I'm here to bring you rice cereal soup. Jinar said as he stood outside the door.
"Oh, please wait!"
Then, Chen Mo got up, walked to the door, and opened the door.
What I saw was Jinar with two bowls of rice cereal soup and a smile on his face.
"Here, your rice cereal soup. Jinar handed over the rice cereal soup, and then said, "If you want to bring the dishes and chopsticks, you can bring them down tomorrow, it's not too early this day, let's rest early." ”
"Well, thank you. ”
"No thanks, this is what I have to do. Jinar replied.
Then he turned around and went downstairs.
Seeing this, Chen Mo also closed the door again and put the rice cereal soup on the table.
"Grayles, don't play dead, come over and have a drink. ”
After saying that, he drank it directly.
While drinking, he also tasted it: "Well, it's quite fragrant." ”
After drinking, the two of them washed up briefly and went to rest.
The night passed peacefully.
......
The next day, as the bell of the bell tower rang, the sun gradually rose.
The morning light shone through the window and on Chen Mo's face. Gradually, Chen Mo also woke up.
I stretched, got out of bed, and went to wash.
As for Grayles, he was still sleeping in the next room.
The snoring was like thunder.
Chen Mo didn't bother to call him, so after washing up, he walked out of the door alone.
And this opening happened to meet Jinal.
At this time, he was holding a broom and cleaning up in the corridor.
"Morning, manager. Chen Mo stepped forward and greeted him warmly.
"Early, Bachelor Rupee. Ginal replied, "Would you like to eat something?" ”
"Then you're welcome. Chen Mo grinned.
I went downstairs.
Sure enough, on the table, there was a pot on it, and it was steaming hot, which should be porridge.
Next to them are several large loaves of bread, mainly white and black, with prices on them.
Obviously, white bread is more expensive.
In addition, there are three noodle customers in this store.
At this time, they were drinking porridge and eating bread at the same time.
Although they didn't know what each other's names were, they still greeted Chen Mo warmly.
"Hello. ”
Chen Mo also responded one by one.
Then, I found a place and sat down.
As for breakfast, I chose nutty white bread directly. It has a soft texture, a sweeter mouthfeel, and a nutty taste, which is a real treat.
Of course, more importantly, Chen Mo is rich.
