Chapter 70: Departure
Ron held two bottles of pale green potion in his hands, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, these were the medicines made by his father. At that time, he left the formula of the potion, and he didn't think that his father could make a fortune through that potion, but at least it was not a problem to be well-off, but now it seems that the things he left behind would be ordinary things, and gold could not hide the light wherever it was.
As soon as Ron returned to the council, he saw a man approaching him, the woman's white clothes had become tattered, and there were some dark red marks on her thighs that had dried up.
Gina just stood there, staring blankly at Ron, she remembered what had happened last night, how Ron had treated his friend, and would rather face a powerful enemy alone than send his friend away in the first place. If it had been her in the same position as Ivy and Leah yesterday, Ron would have made the same choice.
She fainted for a while yesterday after Lao Li's outburst, and when she woke up, she found that Belloc was dead, she was buried under a rubble, and she didn't have the strength to break free at that time. She could only watch quietly, watching what happened next, until Ron and the others had left, and she came out of the rubble at dawn.
After going through that mission in the Kohler Mountains with Ron, and going through the events of last night, she had a question in her mind, what exactly is a friend. This question may have been on her mind for a long time, and it has been lingering in her mind since she heard those words from Noursa last night.
The archbishop has always said that he wants to educate the people, and he has taken great care of her, but she has always lived under the protection of the Great Church, and has never seen the ugliness of human nature in the outside world, and naturally has no real friends of her own. Did Hoyle count? She asked herself, probably not.
Ron looked at Gina, who had a somewhat empty look in her eyes, smiled, and said, "Did you sleep well last night? Thank you. ”
Gina was slightly stunned when she heard Ron's words, she didn't understand what Ron meant by saying thank you, she didn't do anything yesterday, why did Ron thank herself. She cared more about Ron's concern for her.
In the past days, she had heard countless similar words, but she had never felt this way at this moment, it was a kind of warmth of being truly cared for, which she had never had before.
"You knew I was there yesterday?" asked Gina after a long time.
"I know, otherwise why do you think that guy from the Wallland family left so neatly? The Elven Clan's arrival was indeed his surprise, but later I found out that he didn't actually stay away after the Elven Clan's people left. Because he knew very well that the elves were at odds with me, and they wouldn't really help me. But when the elves left, he didn't show up immediately, because he found you still there. His character is cautious, otherwise he wouldn't have hid until the end before making a move. He doesn't know if you and I will join forces, and rushing over may make him lose more than he gains. So I pretended to set up a magic circle to cover my breath to recover, but I was actually waiting for him to leave. I didn't know if you were too hurt to fight, so I had to stay. If I'm gone, and you don't have the power to defend yourself, the man will kill you first, because you saw him kill Belloc of the House of Centfisher, and as for me...... Maybe he'll die too. ”
Gina's eyes widened slightly, she didn't know that just last night, she seemed to have been dancing beside the Grim Reaper. Her strength is indeed good, a level 55 grandmaster, but she is always a priest, and her greater role is to help people recover, as for the combat aspect, it is definitely the biggest shortcoming.
"Why thank me?" Gina was stunned for a moment, carefully combing what Ron said, according to what he said, he should also need to thank Ron, but now it is the other way around.
"Because if it weren't for you, I would have died a long time ago. Because the man from the Walland family wasn't sure about your attitude, he was the first to kill Belloc instead of me. If it weren't for you, with that person's character, he would have waited until Belloc killed me before he made a move, and there was only one reason for making an early move, he was testing you. But he didn't expect me to have a helper. So in the end he still had a bad move, but he didn't lose to me, he lost to you. Ron smiled, his trademark smile still charming.
Gina smiled too, she only felt that something seemed to slip through the corner of her eye, but she didn't care, at this moment she seemed to realize what a friend was. "I'll go first, maybe we'll meet later. On the side of the Extirler family, I have already asked the people of the Great Sanctuary to spread the word, the murderer is the summoner of the Walland family who used the ghost wolf, the Kesfil family wants revenge, but they also have to find out who the target is, if they don't follow the rules, the Great Sanctuary will not sit idly by. ”
Ron was slightly stunned, he didn't expect the Great Holy Hall to offend the Celestial family for him, but the doubts on his face flashed, and he already understood in his heart, maybe all this was just the girl in front of him, otherwise where would the Celestial family do it to themselves so quickly, and no matter how they would have a little scruple about the Great Templar Church. That Tart could see all this, so he ordered a bounty to kill himself.
He smiled at Gina, naturally he wouldn't talk about the actions of the Centfisher family, so maybe this girl would do something, and in the end everyone couldn't get off the stage, and it would always be much more decent to solve this matter privately than to put it on the table.
"Be careful yourself, we should have a chance to meet again. Oh yes, the elves are openly electing a son-in-law, and the Great Sanctuary should send someone there, right?" Ron asked suddenly, for no reason. Let's take a book
Gina thought for a moment and said, "I've heard the archbishop say that someone should go, there are three cardinals in the Great Holy Church, and even if my teacher doesn't go, there will be other cardinals who will go." ”
Ron didn't say much, smiled and said goodbye to Gina.
Gina seemed to think of something when she turned around, but in the end she couldn't help but say nothing, and walked quickly in the direction of the Great Church.
The Holy City is too big to change dramatically because of who does something, and Ron is just one of the smallest of them. After Ron returned to the council's residence, he was not seen again for more than half a month. It's just that many things don't die down just because Ron doesn't show up.
In half a month, there were nearly 100 killers who came to the Holy City, but after these people entered the Holy City, they quietly disappeared, ordinary people would not care about these things, and the council was stepping up the deployment of people to maintain law and order in the Holy City, after all, it was not a small matter that so many killers came. There are a lot of people in the Holy City, even if most of them are awakened, but many of them are only slightly cultivating to strengthen their bodies, and those who can really cultivate to level 40 or above may have some qualifications to call themselves cultivators. In order to protect the safety of the vast majority of ordinary people, it is still necessary for the parliament to intervene.
Naturally, there is no peace in the Kesfiler family, the eldest brother Pluto and his second brother Tart have always had a disagreement, and this time the matter is in an uproar, and it is impossible for the family not to know.
It's okay to mobilize a lot of resources just to avenge his son, and what's even more infuriating is that the killer he hired actually helped the target kill other killers in turn, which in itself is a shame for the Kesfiler family.
On the surface, the patriarch of the family issued an injunction against Tarte, removing him from all rights in the family, and at the same time rescinded the original bounty hunt order. However, it is impossible for the killer family to suffer so much loss after all, and do nothing. Secretly, they first found out the culprit who killed Belloc in the first place, Rio Walland, the first heir to the Walland family now. The reason why it is said is on the surface is because there is another person in the Walland family who is still eligible to inherit the patriarch, named Ivy Wallland.
Coincidentally, the people of the Centira family discovered that this Ivy happened to be the partner named Ron that Tart had ordered to kill before.
The combination of several events inevitably reminded these scheming assassins of something, and suddenly all the killers fell silent. If it is said that no one in the Ksfille family dares to offend because they are omnipresent killers, but only those who really know them will understand that in fact, no one in the Ksfiler family dares to offend, and the reason is that they have always been killers who cannot survive in the sun.
If there is any family in the world today that can scare people with just one name, it is nothing more than two, one is the Ambrosius family, and the other is the Walland family.
The reason why the killer of the Xfiler family gave up and chose to be silent was because he didn't want to be involved in such a huge family infighting, and secondly, he naturally didn't want to offend a person who might become the patriarch of the Walland family in the future. No one can say that Rio will really be able to succeed him, who knows.
Everything seemed to be quietly subsiding, and three months had passed. When Ron and the others reunited, they were already on a voyage to Elven Island.
The ships were so large that they looked like islands from afar. The ship is large enough to withstand the unpredictable weather of the Endless Sea, and to be able to carry more people. After all, a long-distance voyage is nearly half a year to go back and forth.
On the sea, Liya faced the sea breeze like a child who had not grown up, letting the slightly salty and wet sea breeze blow on her face.
She had never seen the vastness of the sea, and the first time she saw it, she was naturally extremely happy.
Ron stood beside her, smelling the faint fragrance coming from her hair, and his expression was slightly relaxed.
Not long ago, he received news from the Gatling Chamber of Commerce that traces of sandworms had been found on the northern forest border of Elven Island, which Ron had instructed the Chamber of Commerce to investigate. So now he should be able to be sure that Owen should have had an accident, as for what the current situation is, no one knows, maybe when he really gets to the island, he will find more clues.
