Chapter 409: A commemorative meal before leaving the ice field

Regarding the relationship between the caravan and Sidney, Lin An went to inquire about John after returning from the dinner.

John didn't know much about it, but he also knew a little bit about it.

"It was an old steward in the caravan who accidentally recognized Master Elvis, and Master Elvis did not deny this relationship, according to the news from the people in the caravan, their old steward had met with Master Elvis nearly a year ago, and some people also recognized Master Elvis."

Almost a year ago?

Lin An silently calculated in his heart, that time period was about around the time he met Salin.

Lin An searched carefully in her mind again, fortunately, the news that Sidney had relatives was still relatively deep in her impression, so she quickly remembered that she and Sidney had brought up this topic after meeting for the second time after remeeting Salin, but Sidney never mentioned anything about his relatives after that, and Lin An put this matter to the back of her mind.

Now that I think about it, the distant relative that Sidney mentioned at that time to meet in a caravan must have been the old caravan steward that John was talking about. I don't know what Sidney's family did, why there was a distant relative who went to the caravan to do business, to do things in the war caravan, but to tie his head to the belt of his trousers.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ However, Master Elvis didn't seem to be close to the old butler, and the old steward refused to see him several times."

Seeing that Lin An was thoughtful, John told Lin An as much as he knew, "It's just that the people in the team saw that Master Elvis didn't directly let the attendants drive the other party away, so they also gave the caravan some care and acquiesced to them walking behind the team." ”

Lin An nodded.

Obviously, the news that Lin An knows so far shows that the platinum hair named Angus should not be too involved with the caravan.

And the other party joined the caravan. It also sounds like a coincidence, after all, Lin An and Sidney get along day and night, and even she didn't notice the relationship between the caravan and Sidney, and the possibility that the other party knew the news and took advantage of it was very low.

Most importantly, although the similarity of the eyes in the "Prophet's Eye" and what she saw on the road when they first met made her a little wary of the young man named Angus, she intuitively did not feel any danger, let alone the whim-like uneasiness of using the "Prophet's Eye".

However, the spell cast of the "Prophet's Eye" failed. So that the eyes she saw did not leave a clear image in her mind, and she only barely remembered the temperament traits revealed by those eyes, but there are so many people in the world with a warm temperament. If she had to be suspicious every time she met someone, her nerves would probably be tense every day.

"Forget it, put this matter aside for now."

Lin An muttered to himself, thought for a while, and said, "John." You don't have to come here often these days, and if you have time, help me keep an eye on the young man named Angus in the caravan behind...... Well, don't let him find out. ”

John's eyes became slightly strange, but Lin An didn't pay attention, because the two of them were walking towards Lin An's tent one after the other. Someone greeted Lin An from time to time halfway, which made Lin An distracted from time to time.

Some people I met on the road saw John's half a step behind Lin An. Some of them looked strange, but John didn't care about these strange visions - he received many more strange glances after he began to guard outside the tent during Lin An's retreat.

And now his relationship with Lin An. It has basically become clear that he doesn't care about letting everyone know that he has become Lin An's follower.

On the contrary, Lin An was a little entangled in this. She wasn't one to care about superficial pomp and class, and John's strict adherence to the code of his followers gave her a subtle sense of guilt, after all, John, the former leader of the Long-tailed Green Eagle Eagle, was now being used to guard her door, as if it were overkill.

She is still more accustomed to the way she gets along with Sidney, and she has mentioned it to John a few times, but John accepts it with an open mind every time, and does not change his sincerity, and says that Sidney's situation is different from his, which makes Lin An helpless against his stubbornness.

John hesitated all the way to Lin An's tent, and seeing that Lin An was about to lift the curtain and go in, he hesitated and said, "Eh, Your Excellency! ”

"What's the matter?" Lin An turned around, a little puzzled by John's hesitation.

"In the past few days, Larry, the attendant of His Excellency Ludwig, has come several times to inquire about the time of your exit, and I sent him according to your instructions, but now that you are out of customs, do you want to inform Your Excellency Ludwig." In Lin An's personal affairs, John's situation was a little awkward, but he was quite fluent in one breath.

Lin An didn't notice John's abnormality, her attention was attracted by the object in John's mouth, and her brows furrowed slightly, if John's had not been paying attention, I am afraid that she would not have been able to notice the change in Lin An's expression.

"Forget it, don't tell him yet, when I come out in a few days, I'll go to Luther in person."

When Johann heard this, he thought to himself, even if you don't say it, someone will reach the ears of Lord Ludwig about this appearance.

"Judging from Your Excellency's tone, it seems that something really went wrong between His Excellency Ludwig and her."

John looked at Lin An's back blocked by felt cloth after entering the tent, and his expression was a little subtly tangled:

Your Excellency asked him to keep an eye on the young man named Angus, is it really as he imagined that he is going to divert his target?

……

――I'm a follower of the female lord, and it's not a good dividing line.γ€œ

Although Lin An didn't really relax when he met that Angus during the dinner, when he returned to the tent and began to comprehend the law again, he unexpectedly smoothed a little.

Keeping his eyes locked on the second from the left among the empty crystal bottles lined up five feet away, Lin An's fingers holding the spell rhythmically drew regular traces on his chest according to the spells he had explored in the past few days, and his fingertips pushed lightly, and an invisible ripple shot in the direction of the crystal bottle.

Whew――

There was an inaudible sound, and almost at the same time as the spell was successfully cast, a crystal bottle disappeared in half silently, as if swallowed by an invisible mouth, while the lower half of the incision was still flat in place.

However, the target that was hit was not the second from the left that Lin An locked, but the last one a foot and a half away.

Lin An withdrew his hand. The transparent prism that had emerged from the deep depths of the pupil due to the high concentration of mental power slowly disappeared, and the codex spread out on the side floated, and the tip of the pen dipped in ink jotted a few numbers in the form drawn on the codex.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Offset by fifteen degrees, one-tenth of the mana consumption, the shape of the incision is not standard, the devoured volume meets the standard, but the cast fluctuation exceeds the standard by more than 700%......"

The tip of the pen wrote down a series of numbers jΓΉ, Lin An visually looked at the number jΓΉ at the top of the table, and the number jΓΉ of several control groups fluctuated obviously, indicating that this space spell was still far from the standard forming.

However, the casting of the spell in the past two days was far more than she expected. As if she had good luck once she went out to dinner, she almost didn't let her suffer from Yan zhΓ²ng's spell casting failure and backlash.

"It's strange, I haven't made any progress in comprehending the law. This is not the spatial element room of the Mage Tower, why did you cast so many spells for no reason? ”

Lin An was a little strange, but in the field of magic, there were too many mysteries that could not be explored clearly for a while, and Lin An was not out of line. I put it down.

However, it seems that because of distraction, the next spell casting is not very smooth, and the connection of several spells is improper, which startled Lin An into a cold sweat, and meditating for a while had no effect, so Lin An had no choice but to put it down again.

A finger swipe in the air. A string of tiny luminous particles was spewed out, and the particles formed a string of chronograph numbers in the air, and Lin An looked at the time displayed on it. It's almost time to eat.

She removed the mute barrier, the bell hanging by the door curtain rang down under the mental power control, and John's voice asked outside the door curtain, "Your Excellency?" ”

Lin An didn't know when John ran to guard the door again, and he was a little helpless about his stubbornness. He replied, "Come in." ”

The curtain was lifted, and a cold wind blew in. John walked in, the tall figure stretched into a long shadow, reflected on the ground, and Lin An found that the natural light outside seemed to be quite bright.

John saw Lin An sitting on the ground, and under the not-so-bright light in the tent, she could faintly see a layer of reddish bloodshot in her eyes, and her dark eyebrows habitually wore a shallow fold, looking a little tired.

The crystal bottles scattered in the tent had been swept into the corner by Lin An's spell, and seeing this situation, John knew that Lin An's retreat had come to an end again, so he asked:

"Is the retreat still smooth? Are you going to get out of customs? ”

Lin An nodded, the arc of the corner of his mouth seemed to be a smile in the dim light, "It's time for dinner, I'm a little hungry." ”

John also had a smile on his face, and said in a relaxed tone: "Your Excellency is out of customs at the right time. Luke's guide expects that in about five days, we will arrive in Gaunt City, and along the way, we have also encountered several sentry posts, the formation speed has probably been passed on by the people of the sentry posts, and there are still three days at most, and the people who come to greet Gaunt City should meet us! ”

After a pause, he continued: "Because a new journey is about to begin, Lord James intends to have a larger celebratory dinner, which is also to commemorate everyone's experience during this time in the ice field, and the time is set for tonight, and Your Excellency is still in time to go. ”

"It's about to come out of the ice field, time flies so fast!" Lin An was surprised, "No wonder I get in and out of the car these days, and I always feel that the days are getting longer and longer, and the sky is getting brighter and brighter." ”

During her retreat, she focused on the help of others, almost oblivious to everything that was happening around her, but she had a subconscious impression of the changes in her environment, and when she thought about it, she remembered it.

This is also an instinct cultivated on the battlefield, although she ignores what is happening around her, it does not mean that she gives up the perception of the crisis of the outside world, this subconscious impression perception, when the threat appears around her, will immediately wake her up from the self-isolation state.

"The commemoration of this journey of the ice field can't be missed!"

When it comes to the impact of this journey on the life of the ice field, no one is more qualified to remember it than her, thinking of the various experiences of this journey, Lin An, who has always disliked looking backwards, also sighed a little.

Coupled with the appropriate amount of going out to relax, it also seemed to help her retreat process, so she did not hesitate and said, "Then what are you waiting for, let's go together!" ”
