Chapter 52: Mutation
My mind was groggy and I felt as if I had been in a long dream. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Is it really a dream?
After struggling slightly, Hitomi opened her eyes with difficulty and looked at the surrounding scene.
I saw that there was darkness around me, as if I was confined in a confined space, and the humid air had a little musty smell, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Where is this...... Her eyes were full of confusion, and Hitomi's mind was still a mess at the moment, trying to remember what had happened.
It seems that he went to the street alone, and then, he ran into Luo Qi......
Lotchy?
Thinking of this, Hitomi's body shook suddenly, and she got up from the ground.
As it got up, a rattling sound came from around its body, and Hitomi hurriedly looked around, only to see that all its limbs were chained to the iron rings of the wall.
"What......" Gritting her teeth, Hitomi took a step back and looked at the iron gate not far in front of her.
Jail?
This word came to Hitomi's mind, is this a prison? If so, how did you come to this? Don't......
"Is it really because of that 'Luo Qi'?" Thinking of this, a cold sweat broke out on Xiao Hitomi's body, "So, could it be that their stationing point has been discovered?" ”
"Damn! Sure enough, it's still unreliable! In this way, Luo Qi can be dangerous! Hitomi muttered to herself hatefully.
At this moment, a faint cough sounded as it drifted through the dark prison, and it seemed extremely loud.
Xiao Hitomi was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly turned his head, although the echo here was very noisy, but he could still clearly hear the voice just now.
Right behind him.
In that dark corner, a figure huddled there, draped in a black linen cloak, hung its head and let out a faint wheezing sound.
Looking at the man, Hitomi hesitated for a moment, dragged the heavy chain, and slowly walked up.
"Hey, who are you?"
The voice floated in this space, as if they were the only ones here, except for the voice of Hitomi, the rest was only the endless echo.
The man didn't say a word, just raised his head slightly and glanced at Xiao Hitomi.
Facing that face, Xiao Hitomi was stunned for a moment, I don't know why, the person in front of him seems to be a little familiar?
I saw that the man's head was gradually raised, his pale face looked so weak in the darkness, and his long silver hair hung down and fluttered on his chest.
"You...... How could it be ......" Looking at the person in front of him, Xiao Hitomi's pupils shrank suddenly, "Could it be that you say, no!" No way! ”
In the darkness, Hitomi's stiff figure and the silent man stayed there quietly, as if they were lifeless stone sculptures.
……
Cantonment.
Leaning against the window, Heracos gently lifted the curtain with his fingers and peered out of the tavern.
"Looks like the number of guards has increased a lot." Behind him, Lydia said, "That would have been too much of an impact on us, after all, we should at least be quiet when we act." ”
"That mission, completely silent, is no longer possible." "Now in the dark, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are watching us," said Helamos, in a hoarse voice. ”
With that, Heramos lowered the curtain and turned his head to look at Lydia: "They didn't do it for a long time, just to wait for an opportunity. ”
"Wait for us to relax."
"The lion fights the rabbit, and he does his best." "There's no way they're going to do something they're not sure about, and there's going to be a big price to do on us no matter what, and they're just trying to reduce that price now." ”
After a moment of silence, Heramos stared at Lydia with a look so deep that it was hard to figure out what he was thinking.
"Lydia, when you were in the imperial capital of Warren Santi, did you meet the head of the regiment, Odin?"
Lydia was stunned for a moment, and then said: "The head of the regiment rarely shows up, you should also understand this, but there are still encounters." ”
"Then when is the knight rank advancement ceremony he gave you going to be completed?" Heramos asked, turning his head and looking out the window again.
"This ......," Lydia hesitated, "and he said that because of the mission, the ceremony would be delayed. ”
Hearing this, Heramos was silent and did not speak for a long time.
"Is that so?" After a while, Heramos spoke again, "That's a pity, it seems that it will take some time for you to break away from the Royal Knights and join the Eye of the Oracle." ”
"It's okay, it's an honor to be the captain of the Royal Knights." Lydia said with a smile.
"That's what you think." Helamos's eyes began to sharpen as he looked out the window at the moment, "Very well, the head of the regiment will also be satisfied with your conscientiousness." ”
"Okay, I'm fine, if you have something, just do it." "I'm going to take a break." ”
"Okay, then I'll go first." Lydia nodded at Heramos, then walked out of the house.
Leaning against the window, Heracos seemed to be lost in thought, while at the same time, a breeze gently blew the curtains into the room, and Lydia's long silver hair fluttered gently in the breeze.
After a long time, Heracos looked up again, and Lydia had been out of the room for a long time.
After a moment's thought, Heramos seemed to have made a decision, and left the window and walked out of the house.
Ever since that emergency meeting, Luo Qi had locked himself in his room, not going out no matter who called him.
"You've worked hard, and if you come again, you might really get hurt, right?" I saw that in the middle of the room, Ling Ye was kneeling there, holding the golden demon pocket watch in his hand, and said softly.
Luo Qi was lying on the ground at the moment, gasping constantly, the clothes on his back were already wet with sweat, clinging to his body, and he seemed to have carried out extremely strenuous exercise.
"That's fine, go on!" Luo Qi gasped and struggled to get up from the ground, "Now it's hard for my warrior level to rise, so I can only try to see if I can improve my mage level...... Now my strength, how can I save Hitomi! ”
"Now, you're stubborn." Lingye said helplessly, "But since you insist, it doesn't matter, but if there is danger, I will pull you out, you can't complain." ”
"I know, come on!"
Just as Luo Qi and Lingye were about to continue the soul trial in the Demon Pocket Watch space, suddenly, there was a knock on the door, interrupting what they were about to do.
"Who!" Luo Qi asked loudly with some dissatisfaction, after all, he has to do a very important thing now, only by improving his strength, can he do more, and interrupting him now is no different from stopping him from saving Xiao Hitomi.
"It's me." Hearing a low voice from outside the house, Luo Qi was stunned for a moment, this voice sounded ...... How is it like Heramos?
Struggling to get up from the ground, Rocky opened the door.
I saw Heramos outside the house looking solemnly to the side, looking preoccupied, and didn't turn his head until Lotchi opened the door.
"Captain?" Luo Qi felt a little puzzled, what was he doing at this time?
"What's wrong?" Heramos asked faintly.
Although he was going to train soul power, Luo Qi still shook his head involuntarily and said, "No, Captain Heramos, is there anything you want me to do?" ”
"Yes." I only heard Heramos say lightly.
"The task of infiltrating, I want to leave it to you."
