Activation of the device went smoothly, with the removal of some critters that posed no threat at all, and the activation mission was nearing completion. Seeing that the four small devices were about to be fully charged, the head of the regiment had been hanging on his heart, so he let go slightly.

"Commander, the high-energy current of Team 4 is ready to be connected!" A tall team member reported loudly.

"Okay." The regiment commander nodded in understanding, "Pay attention to the defense, don't slacken." ”

"Yes!"

Seeing the members of the group leading the order to leave, the female pastor who was waiting by her side smiled slightly, "This operation is very smooth." ”

"Hmm." Infected by the smile, the regiment leader's tense shoulders couldn't help but relax slightly.

"Soon we will be able to deal with the enemy and complete the operation." Sighing lightly, the priestess patted the broad shoulder of the head of the regiment, "Commander, you have worked hard for this time. ”

"You're working hard, too." Pinched his eyebrows hard, and the head of the regiment had indescribable tiredness in his tone.

"Is there anything you need help with?"

The regiment commander pondered for a moment, "Team No. 2 has a lot of injuries, so I want you to pay more attention." ”

"You mean...... The team with children? The female mage reacted quickly, after all, she had followed the regiment leader for many years to fight in the east and west, and she would bring her children to participate in the encirclement and suppression operation, and it was the first time she had seen her.

"I'm worried about President Festin." The head of the regiment pointed to the most critical point.

"The Elder Adult's injuries are really worrying." As the confidant of the head of the regiment, she knows a little about the president's injury. Previously, she had suggested that the other party should be transferred to the town for treatment first and wait for reinforcements to arrive, but he only smiled and said that he politely declined.

Strangely, the head of the regiment only pursed the corners of his lips and did not respond to her words.

The priestess was also very knowledgeable and did not ask any more questions, bowed and bowed and walked away quickly.

Looking at the busy figures of the team members, the head of the regiment lowered his eyebrows and fell into deep thought.

Speaking of which, it's not the first time he's worked with Festin. In the past, when they received some large-scale commissions or special tasks, they would also transfer personnel to each other, and they had a tacit understanding of cooperation in the division of labor and logistics supply.

For this request made by Festin, at first he thought that it was just a more difficult opponent, and it was related to the ownership of the artifact, so when he encountered a difficult problem, he only took it for granted.

But as he got older, he gradually realized that things didn't seem so simple.

A harsh living environment, powerful enchantment traps, ancient text spells, and an embarrassing crisis of trust...... He had never encountered such a serious embarrassment since he led the team.

But compared to all of the above, what he cared more about was Festin's own attitude.

Once, he discussed the strength of both sides with several captains. The opponent is a good opponent, and Festin, who is the core of the main team, has been in poor form recently, and based on years of experience as a team leader, their chances of winning are only half and a half, and going head-to-head is not the best option.

For this reason, he also spoke bluntly to Fesdin in private, and he wanted to test the other party's wishes. But for some reason, he always felt that Festin's obsession with this operation was very deep, and even reached the point of going crazy.

For ordinary people, how attractive an artifact is, the head of the regiment understands it. But for a person of Festin's level and status, it seems a little worthless to leave the entire team behind and damage the foundation accumulated over the years in order to pursue the ultimate of this peak. As for slogans such as "for the reputation of the guild", he didn't believe a word.

So what is it for?

Just as he was stunned, his assistant's whispered call interrupted his thoughts, "Commander, the high-energy current of Team No. 4 has been successfully connected, as long as the last low-energy current is transferred to the device, the teleportation point can be activated." ”

"Good." Retracting his scattered thoughts, the regiment leader clenched the golden light shield and ordered in a deep voice, "Pass the order, all team members, immediately gather at the designated place!" ”

"Yes!"

*****

After completing the task of the team, Du Yuhan was just about to leave the passage, but before his heel touched the ground, he received an order for the whole group to assemble. Looking at Gray's slightly anxious expression, Du Yuhan's mind appeared with Vic's constipated expression again. After a little thought, he decided to return to the team and gather with Hart first.

Moreover, Festin's unusualness always makes people a little concerned.

But before he could see the familiar figure from a distance, a small figure flew into his arms suddenly, and his little hand tugged at the corner of his clothes. Before he could react, a white fluffy furball slapped him in the face.

"Brother! You're finally back! ”

"Squeak!"

Tearing off the fur moss on his face with difficulty, Du Yuhan was full of question marks.

What happened?

He asked Hart who was following him with his eyes, but the other party only walked quickly to Gray's side and looked carefully, without even giving him a look.

Helpless, he had to touch his little furry head, "Are you obedient?" ”

Unexpectedly, Vic raised his little face with a sob, his nose was red, and he was looking at him with teary eyes along with the dog, "Vic misses you so much...... Brother don't leave Vic behind, okay? ”

“…… Yes? ”

What can't be left behind, isn't it just going for a while, how did it become like this?

Just when his head was full of black lines, a crisp female voice suddenly interjected.

"Don't worry, this kid doesn't cry or make trouble, and he is very obedient." When I looked up, I saw a young female pastor walking over with Festin in her arms, her eyes full of blame, "You are really, why did you bring the child here knowing that this operation was so dangerous?" I've never seen a brother like you. ”

As soon as he saw Festin, who was unable to move, Milne on the other side also rushed over as if he saw a relative, "My lord! How is your body? But I'm worried about the death of the little one! ”

"It's okay, it's okay." Festin smiled and waved his hand, "Thanks to His Excellency the Reverend for treating my wounds, I'm much more comfortable now." ”

"That's what I'm supposed to do." The pastor glanced at the other side absently, "I'm not like some people who put a child in danger and ignore it. ”

The main members of the regiment have gone to the most dangerous places, where is the danger in the rear? Besides, even if he is injured a little, the name of Festin's president is not a vegetarian, is it possible that he can't even look good at a child?

Du Yuhan was angry, but it was difficult to argue.

“…… It was my negligence. ”

"Take it with you, it's not good to take care of it, you take care of it outside, and you even want President Festin to help take care of it." It's just that Du Yuhan's softness did not satisfy her, and the female pastor continued to nag, "Don't you know that Your Excellency is injured?" What should I do if I delay my treatment? ”

Du Yuhan: ......

Nima, why is there a sour smell of abandoning his wife and children in the air?

But no one asked Festin to take care of it?!

Such a big dead cat almost choked him to death.

Although he was full of complaints, none of them could be said on this occasion. Du Yuhan grinded his teeth secretly, and could only salute Fesdin dryly, "I'm sorry for the trouble for you." ”

"Hehe, it's okay." Fesdin took a few steps forward and patted Vic on the shoulder, "The kid is very sensible and not troublesome at all. ”

Seeing that the bloated body leaned over again, the nose seemed to be filled with the strong smell of sweat. Vic's expression changed, and he subconsciously hid back, hugging Du Yuhan's thighs and refusing to let go. With the innocent dogs on the top of his head, he looks even more pitiful, "Brother......

Under the critical gaze of the pastor, Du Yuhan twitched his face and barely pulled out an ugly smile, "Silly boy, what are you afraid of?" My brother loves you the most, how could he leave you? ”

"Hmmm! Pull the hook hook, don't lie! Quite satisfied with Du Yuhan's answer, Vic rubbed his thighs hard, and secretly hooked the corners of his mouth in an invisible place.

Hum! that you will not be saved when you see death, and that you may leave me!

It's good for you, the soles of your feet are oiled and you run away, and the special Lao Tzu was almost smoked by that body odor!

"Next time, you must pay attention, don't be so careless." Seeing that Du Yuhan sincerely admitted her mistake, the female pastor finally stopped carering, "Okay, let's quickly gather with the big army." ”

If Du Yuhan was amnesty, he hurriedly pulled Kevin and walked forward quickly. Vic, who was left behind, tried to follow, but let Festin pull at his collar again.

"Don't run too fast, be careful of falling." A skillful pull the child to his side, and Festin held his little hand in the palm of his hand like a kind uncle, "Come, follow the uncle." ”

With a smiling round face close at hand, Vic shuddered, but couldn't break free, so he reluctantly walked aside.

"Lord Festin is so considerate and patient with children." After that, the female pastor raised her head and glared at Du Yuhan, "It's much better than a certain irresponsible brother." ”

"That is, in the guild, the elders must do everything! Otherwise, where would the guild achieve today? Milne on the side was busy patting the horses' ass.

Actually, he also has his own abacus.

In this dangerous environment, a strong backer is the greatest guarantee for survival. Those arrogant professional captains can't be counted on, the head of the regiment is too popular to be related to him, as for that Du Yuhan...... A handsome face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling instantly appeared in his mind, and Milne couldn't help but tremble.

After thinking about it, only Fesdin is the most suitable for the requirements. Although the president is now injured, the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and no matter how bad it is, it is estimated that he can survive until he escapes. And I have followed the other party for many years, which has no credit and hard work, and I will definitely not die when I am in distress.

While Milne was thinking, the group arrived at the meeting point.

After the assistant confirmed that he was in place, the regimental commander gave an order, accompanied by a whoosh, and the last beam of low-energy current passed through the channel quickly, hitting the receiving device with precision.

Swish! ——

High and low energy currents are intertwined and spiral down the column. After a while, the whole stone pillar glows softly green. The stone slab in the center of the pillar also made a crisp clicking sound.

Powerful energy activated the ancient device, and the small stone slab was filled with enough energy and shimmered with a faint light. The font, which was originally corroded and blurred, gradually revealed its true face in plain sight.

"What's that written?" Standing on tiptoe, Du Yuhan stared at the slate without blinking, but he still didn't understand the meaning of the words.

“…… True...... Appearance? ”

Kevin, who was the first to decipher, tightened his eyebrows, and a strong uneasiness instantly flooded his heart.
