0023 Interlude to the Coming Mountain Rain

"I'd love to send you back, but now I need to pick up a shipment, and it's not so urgent if I hope nothing happens to the farm......

At the station outside the east gate of the "Afterlife" of the underworld, a merchant named Liting said apologetically to the Underworld Hunters who were stepping down from his freight truck. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žfo

"No, I'm grateful that you're willing to take us back, so naturally I can't delay your time any longer," Wei Yi glanced at the unloading yard of the agency train located outside the East Gate, where a lot of goods were being unloaded from the train that had just arrived, and thanked Li Ting: "If there is any trouble that needs to be solved in the future, just go to the Central District Secret Hunting Special Operations Agency to find them." ”

"Maybe I may be a misnomer, but you're planning to 'rob' the 'clients' of the Ranger Guild, right?" The middle-aged businessman sat back in the car and smiled at the captain of the Pluto: "The long-standing habit is not so easy to change, my suggestion is that you should do something influential, preferably in the other party's way that is difficult to do, as for the specific details, I, a layman, will not intervene." ”

"He's right." After seeing the machine car drive away, Li Ya said to Wei Yi thoughtfully, "Even if we do the same thing as the Ranger Guild, there will still not be too many people who trust us in the preconceived situation. ”

"That's right, except for what we're doing, the previous ones were all trivial or trying to play the same commission, obviously not like the Ranger Guild that needs to be paid, I really don't know what they're hesitating about." Hong Ying seemed to have been sitting in the machine car for a long time, and was stretching his waist and complaining.

"Hmm...... This was clear from the time we questioned the workers on the farm, and they all thought we were from the Ranger Guild," Wei Yi replied as he studied the departure time on the license plate, "This can actually be regarded as our advantage, we can receive information in advance and arrive before the residents go to the guild to entrust us." ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Hey? Lu Yao has never expressed an opinion on this topic, and has been silent before, but at this time, she looked back in the direction of Hope Farm as if she had suddenly discovered something.

"Huh? What's wrong? Wei Yi, who was about to continue his analysis, immediately turned to Little Red Riding Hood girl: "Has that farm been attacked again?" ”

"No, it's closer." Lu Yao frowned slightly, raised his hand and pressed the semicircular bulge on the hood: "I'll adjust the frequency band." ”

"Oh......" the others stopped talking and waited for the results.

"The vibration source is located in the rest place of the ancient battlefield, and there is some kind of vibration pulse that is penetrating the 'gauze tent'-" Lu Yao's golden eyes flashed one after another: "No, it has not penetrated, it is just using the complete reflection of the gauze tent to increase the propagation distance......"

"Hey! I can understand every word of this girl's words, but I don't know what they mean when we talk about them together. Hong Ying resisted the red giant axe and looked at the way it came: "Anyway, what's there over there?" ”

"I can understand a little bit," Leah curled a strand of her hair with her fingers, trying to organize the language, "Probably there was a ...... over there." Tweeter? ”

"Do you know what's being sent?" Wei Yi frowned and immediately asked.

"Intercepting signals...... Interception failed, attempting to track the aftermath...... Get the incomplete waveform and start to restore the ......" The golden streamer in Lu Yao's eyes rose and fell, and meaningless syllables began to come out of his mouth: "What...... Woo...... Oh......"

"Oooh! Can Xiao Yao'er hear what the 'horn' is saying? Hong Ying looked very interested, as if he was going to walk over.

"Shh Li Ya hurriedly stopped the red-haired reckless man: "Don't make trouble. ”

"I'm not so easily bothered, the analysis is done." The golden light in Lu Yao's eyes disappeared, she glanced at Hong Ying, and then said, "That voice isβ€”"

"Meow~" The little girl closed one eye, curled up her hands beside her face, and learned a cat meow.

"......" The other three underworld hunters couldn't help but froze, and the two passers-by collided directly with each other.

"Uh, Yaoyao? What is that? Wei Yi grabbed the back of his head and moved a step to block the view in the direction of the official road.

"It's strange, this voice actually has its own movements," Lu Yao blinked, withdrew his hand, and tilted his head: "Could it be that the source of the sound wave is a cat?" But how can an ordinary cat send such a long-range signal? ”

"That...... Can you know where it ends? Lu Yao didn't seem to understand what a cute action she had just made, so Wei Yi had no choice but to continue the previous topic.

"No, it shows no signs of decay at all, and it may spread throughout the underworld, but if there is no receiving end, ordinary people can't hear it." Lu Yao shook his head.

"Huh?" "The whole underworld?" Wei Yi and Lea spoke at the same time, then looked at each other and nodded.

Judging from the legend, isn't that the "ghost tiger" exactly like this?

"Look at what! Believe it or not, I'll hack you to death! "Hong Ying is making a fierce look to stop a few passers-by who are trying to come over, it's good that he doesn't wear a trapping uniform.

――――

In the north of the underworld, there is a dark red mountain range, and the rocks and soil on it are of different shades of red, while the plants and animals are very normal, but because of the red base, they appear black no matter what color they are, and the whole mountain looks like a piece of smoldering charcoal with flames rising from time to time, so it is named "Charcoal Mountain".

On the mountainside of the Charcoal Mountain, there is a mining town called "Bloodstone Town", as the name suggests, it is developed for mining the "Bloodstone" in the mountain, although those "Bloodstone" itself is fire, but after the fire spirit contained in it is released, it can contain any kind of spiritual power in it and there is no rejection reaction, it is a very important material when making mechanisms, and it is also of great use to people who use spells, in fact, they are more important trading items in the underworld and the outside world.

At this time, a freight truck was slowly driving down the hill towards Bloodstone, there were many of them every day, and it was not worth paying attention to, but the low roar of animals coming from that car from time to time was very concerning. A handsome young man in a blue and white robe, carrying a huge sword box on his back, and two strands of white hair on his forehead was standing on a cliff and staring at the car with a slight frown.

"Is it okay not to stop it?" A girl's voice with a little playfulness as crisp as a silver bell sounded behind him. "It doesn't matter." The young man's voice was as thick as a deep pool under a waterfall: "They didn't plan to release 'those' this time. ”

"But since it's been shipped in, it will be released sooner or later, right?" A girl who was only half the height of the youth, wearing a purple dress on a white background and black shoulders, walked up to him, her short lilac hair tied with a black ribbon, and looked at the young man with an expression that saw something interesting: "Is the Ranger Guild an institution that will not be such an institution as long as no one entrusts it?" ”

"Perhaps, but for me, action is only about the heart." The truck left the line of sight, and the young man retracted his gaze and looked at the girl beside him: "If I want, I can arrest you right now, the eleventh adjuster of the 'Sleeping Dragon', and the 'Killing Angel' Jing." ”

"Every time I hear this title, I want to hit someone," Xiaojing raised her hand to support her forehead: "It's better not to let me know who made it." ”

"'Huge maces will be pulled out for no reason to destroy the road, beat pedestrians, demolish houses, and other violent acts, the danger level is extremely high, and it is recommended to subdue it quickly or stay away.' The young man read out a passage from the book: "This is the evaluation of you within the Ranger Guild. ”

"Hmph, I already knew this, but it's you," Xiao Jing tilted her head and looked at the young man in the Dao robe: "'Thunder Sword Saint' Murong Ziying, even the head of Shu Mountain, why would a super first-level ranger who didn't have the confidence to easily defeat why he had a good conversation with me, the 'Sleeping Dragon' adjuster?" ”

"I have an 'old man' in your organization, although I haven't found her, but I still know some inside story, as long as the 'Sleeping Dragon' does not carry out a plan to endanger the underworld, I have no reason to be your enemy." Murong Ziying waved the sleeves of his robe, and an ink-colored giant sword flew out of the sword box and landed at his feet: "Do it yourself." ”

"Hey! Tsk, run fast. Xiao Jing couldn't stop it, and the Sword Saint of Thunder had already turned into a streamer and disappeared: "I still want to ask the inside story of the sleeping dragon, the old man in the organ room doesn't know anything." ”

Not far away, in the shadow of the mountain wall, there was a huge machine man, and seeing Murong Ziying flying away, it slowly walked out, half-squatted down in front of Xiao Jing, and stretched out a hand.

"Ahh I've always been talking like this, and I think it's going to be very unpopular. The girl walked up to the hand, then jumped on its shoulder as the machine man stood up and retracted it.

"Actually...... You can just be yourself. The voice of the huge machine man was like that of a boy of the same age as Xiaojing: "The 'Xiaojing' in the record is evaluated as 'fickle' and 'freewheeling', and it's okay to suddenly want to be a good girl,"

"Hmm...... I'll think about it, anyway, let's go back now and let the old man continue to repair the fault of your transformation function," "Okay, hurry up." The inky man carried the girl to the foot of the mountain.
