Chapter 217: Unicorns and Handcuffs
Extinguishing the communication crystal, Fang Yu stood alone and stood still for a moment.
There is an infinite unknown and fog in the darkness, telling unresolved questions, and the faint hope is like a flickering lone lamp, guiding the only way forward.
He wondered, when did Torragotos begin to covet this underground 'divine power'? Perhaps from the moment it received the body of a god, this dark thought lingered in the legendary dragon's mind.
But it may also be even more ancient, hundreds of thousands of years, and even from the moment it was born, it has never forgotten the powerful and terrifying power underground, so it will send people down year after year to investigate the situation below. And getting the body of a god from the Empire is actually just the last step in this plan.
He couldn't rule out any of the possibilities, but whatever the reason, it all represented long-term forbearance—ten years and a hundred years were actually long enough for mortal time scales, and such a far-reaching plan was really as simple as they expected?
More importantly, what role does the rain listener play in this? How deep is the involvement of the Eternals, and what is the relationship between the old dragon and these people? Is it a master-servant? Or is it just an ally? If Fang Duck remembers correctly, the Eternals also intervened in Nicol Bolas's plan, what are these people, Doriphon and the Black Holy City, why do they always appear in such places?
Just a believer in the dark saints? Or is it something else? But do the followers of the Dark Saints really have that much power to act? Kita has specially investigated the information of these people, although they are hidden among ordinary people, but they do not have much power in the mortal world, and since the countries of Aitaria are all believers in the Orin gods, they must be strictly guarded against dark believers - and as we all know, there are few dark saints in history who respond to the fact that their own believers.
Because most of them are in a long sleep, or they have been sealed, and there may be only one dark deity like Sarutaka who is gradually recovering for a hundred years.
Where does the power of the Eternals come from?
The scholars of Aitaria had always believed that their power might come from the Dark Dragon, but since the death of the last Dark Dragon, the activities of the Dark Cultists have not decreased, and have even increased significantly.
Thinking of this, Fang Yu shook his head, realizing that he was a little distracted. However, during the Doriphon incident, the plans of the Eternals continued for nearly a hundred years, and he believed that the conspiracy since the beginning of the Battle of Byrne must not be so simple.
He thought of the clues in his hand again, and couldn't help but remember the quiet and calm smile of his twin sister in his memory, and the evasive gaze of his sister, two short memories lingered in his heart, making him both sure and a little uneasy, and the final result would really be the same as he expected?
And then there's the Jeffrey Redcoats thing.
Predictably, this self-righteous 'praying mantis' probably didn't expect the yellow finch to follow.
The plan of the redcoat team and the night lizardmen, the legendary dragon must have known it, but it did not stop it in the slightest, just waiting for them to enter this trap step by step, even if it had premeditated and single-handedly promoted this matter.
Don't forget the relationship between the night lizards and Torragotos, they may break up, but it is also possible that it is just a front.
However, this does not mean that the Jeffrey Redcoats must be potential allies, and the dark power displayed by the Blood Pact has not yet had a reasonable explanation, and Fang Yu certainly can't believe these people rashly.
The only innocent people in this underground may be the small guilds who have been coerced into, but these people are short-sighted, difficult to rely on, and are likely to be lured and deceived by Torlagotos.
Although Fang Yu had the military prominently announce it in the community, he did not expect these people to have a chance to see it, because no one knew how far Torragotos' plan had progressed.
However, there is still hope for a breakthrough in his hands.
One is Elisa.
One was—he couldn't help but glance at the warrior captain of the night lizardman.
can judge whether it is friend or foe, maybe it can only be cut from this 'living mouth'.
Fang Yu couldn't determine whether his judgment was correct or not, but the quicksand of time would not stop passing because of people's hesitation, every gaze that looked at him, the people behind it could only provide them with limited help, no one could help him make a decision at this moment, someone always had to take the first step.
Fortunately, it may be the advantage of innocence and youth, it only took him a moment to make up his mind, completely calm down, look at the others and speak:
"Let's carry out the first part of the plan first, split up, the first goal is to find the material teleportation point, I will use the clockwork elf to assist you, as soon as there are enemies around, the first time to get closer to the others."
It will take time to wait for answers.
But the underground was already racing against time, of course they couldn't stop and wait, but they had to make all preparations as much as possible before the decisive battle, although Fang Yu hesitated for a moment, but finally made up his mind to split up.
Only in this way can efficiency be maximized.
As for the safety of the team, it was entirely up to his clockwork elves, and as long as they didn't get bogged down, he trusted the people of Silver Westland to leave calmly.
The ink-dyed green bamboo asked, "How do we determine who are the enemies?" ”
"All people may be, all people may not," Fang said bluntly, "so we have to avoid fighting as much as possible." The exceptions are, of course, the dark creatures, but the dark creatures should be unstoppable, and we don't need to waste time on them. ”
"Got it?"
Everyone nodded.
Fang Yu looked at KUN on the side again: "Mr. KUN, the coordination and command between the teams will be handed over to you." ”
KUN NODDED, AND WITHOUT MUCH NONSENSE, HIS FIGURE DISAPPEARED FROM THE HOLOGRAPHIC PROJECTION. After a while, a new ID was added to the command channel, the All-Knowing of the Crown of the Silver Forest, who coughed lightly: "Each unit enters the channel of its own detachment. ”
The adjustment of the communication channel is busy.
Fang Yu took this opportunity to say to the underworld: "Sister underworld. ”
"I see, little one," said Shen deliberately lowered his voice as if in his ear, "I'll train you well." ”
"That's not the case," Fang Yu was a little red-faced, "Sister Ming, are you good at detecting at the state of high-speed flight of clockwork fairies?" Wouldn't I be able to share the Clockwork Elf's vision with you, I'd like you to take care of some of the scouting duties. ”
Scouting in the high-speed flight of the clockwork fairy, don't say that he can't do it, in the entire Super Athletic League, this talent of this construction queen is also unique.
"Oh——?" Ming deliberately lengthened his tone: "Little guy, those people in the military didn't let me do this, big sister, my worth is very high, do you know?" ”
Fang Yu was stunned for a moment, he really hadn't thought about this question, what was the value of the vice president of the God Slayer, I'm afraid only the top management of the God Slayer Club knew - but it must be a price that was enough to satisfy her and her agent.
Generally speaking, as long as the club is not declining or being auctioned off, these top star callers are rarely transferred, and their value is probably a secret answer. However, he did know that the transfer price of the rookie king last season was bought by Fantasy Wings, one of the top ten guilds, for a record-breaking price of more than two million.
As for the price of this construction queen, it's about an astronomical amount for him, right?
He was there in a daze, but the queen couldn't help but giggle when she saw that this guy was really thinking about this problem: "Silly little guy, you won't really think about buying the big sister, right?" Could it be that you are actually a hidden local tyrant, and if you are not a good recruiter, you have to go back to inherit tens of millions of family properties? ”
She deliberately lowered her voice: "What do you want to buy your big sister back for, to warm your bed?" Actually, no, if you really have tens of millions of family properties to inherit, the big sister may be able to consider the old cow eating tender grass. ”
Fang Yu realized that the other party was joking with him, and couldn't help scratching his head in embarrassment.
Of course, he understood that the other party's frivolous personality was just a façade, otherwise he would not have given people the title of Queen Lady, and it was rumored in the community that she had always been in love with the president of Silver Vislan, but she didn't get a response from the latter.
Of course, the rumors in the community may not be true, but in the more than ten years since she became a professional caller, she has never been too close to anyone but Dawn.
However, it was this rumor that made the star president of Silver Vislan add a male public enemy title to the community out of thin air.
After all, the queen of make-ups was once the dream girl of most male fans in the community.
Seeing his stupid appearance, she couldn't help but smile even more happily, she shook her head and said, "I'm joking with you, but it's okay, big sister, of course I'm conditional, you have to promise me one thing." ”
Fang Yu was stunned, the condition was not impossible, but it was absolutely impossible to join the God Slayer, he shook his head and said, "Sister Hades, I will not join any big guild." ”
"I know," to Fang Yuan's surprise, Ming was not surprised by his answer: "You can't even look down on Silver Vislan, how can you look down on our little temple?" I'm not talking about it, and I promise it won't make you feel embarrassed. ”
"What's that?"
Meditated for a while: "I haven't thought about it yet, you wait for me to think about it." ”
Can it still be like this? Fang Yu paused for a moment, but subconsciously he did not resist this proposal, first, he believed that the other party would not embarrass himself too much, because this queen has always done what she says, not to mention that he is not just because the other party helped this little favor, but to repay this queen for his teaching and preaching.
He nodded slightly.
He nodded, satisfying to let his form disappear from the holographic projection.
The last one to leave was the little princess of Silver Vislan, and Sophie didn't say anything more, only whispered a reminder to him: "Be careful, protect yourself, and my people, don't be a hero." ”
Fang Yu could hear the sincerity of the little princess's tone, and knew that she didn't have much heart, so her heart warmed slightly, and she nodded to the latter.
Sophie nodded, and then left from the holographic projection - the military and the major guilds were going to get involved in this mission, and it didn't make sense for her to stay in the channel, so after handing over the command, she chose to leave.
Next, the entire team of Silver Vislan was divided into four at Fang Yuan's suggestion, with the leading knight leading a team, Akane leading a team, Dotted Ink Dyed Qingzhu leading a team, and the remaining team led by a priest, each of whom entered the ruins separately.
Fang Ou left behind all the people who didn't have the Drafter system and couldn't communicate with each other remotely - mainly Sylvid and her men, Tenaric and the Night Lizard Warrior Captain, and finally a Ranger Drafter from Silver Vislan to communicate with each other.
The main purpose of such a detachment is to ensure that each detachment can still have combat effectiveness that can fight, and there are only six clockwork fairies left in Fang Yuan's hands, except for one handed over to the underworld to guide the whole situation, each other team has a special clockwork fairy to guide the way.
Due to the existence of KUN, in addition to the additional task of controlling the clockwork fairy, Fang Yu himself is actually only in charge of his own team, after all, in terms of command and coordination talent, ten of him may not be as good as the omniscient of the Silver Forest Crown.
Fang Yu is deeply self-aware, and naturally understands that professional matters should be handed over to experts to deal with, and will never overstep his responsibilities.
From time to time, Viurs's cold voice came from the channel, introducing them to the structure of the ruins in the vicinity, the architectural habits of the Sinsas snake people, where there may be secret passages, and where there are secret doors, although they are not all successful, but it also greatly saves them time to go the wrong way.
Not to mention that they still have Sylvid's map in their hands.
With the aristocratic lady's consent, Fang Plover uploaded the map to the command center, and Sylvid privately talked to Sophie in detail, and also obtained a power from Silver Westland to allow her to use the map's contribution to print a map fragment from the obelisk once they reached the obelisk.
This also solved one of his worries, he had promised to help Sophie and the people of Silver Vislan get the map on the obelisk, but Sylvid was also aiming for the map on the obelisk, and he was worried that the two sides would clash.
Miss Nachi didn't take the conflict as a possibility at all, and easily resolved the trouble from Silver Vislan through negotiations.
And she negotiated on behalf of Fang Yu at that time, and after getting this verbal agreement, she stood in place and winked at the latter: "Didn't cause you trouble this time, captain?" ”
Fang Yu didn't know how to answer for a while, so he could only say, "I'm sorry for you, Miss Sylvide." After all, the map was Sylvid's personal belongings, and no one could force her to help if she didn't agree.
The aristocratic lady only tilted her head and smiled politely: "Thinking about what the captain thinks is my duty as a ship officer, and I was worried about getting the captain into my own trouble, but I didn't expect to cause trouble to the captain." ”
"The past is gone." Fang Yu replied.
Sylvede looked at him with bright eyes, and asked with a smirk, "So did the captain never suspect it?" ”
"Suspect what?"
"What if I'm really the woman with the crow?"
Fang Yu glanced at her.
Under the light of the torches, the beauty of the noble girl is a kind of clear beauty, intellectual and peaceful, she does not say a word, but her clear eyes speak all the time, so that people naturally understand what she means.
She is like an open book in front of people, as if she has an unobstructed view, but it is mysteriously sealed in history, and every word and deed seems to have a deep meaning. It's a kind of ingenuity that makes people want to get closer.
But Fang Yu didn't say much, only took out a silver handcuff from the waist bag behind him, stroked the badge on the handle with his glove, and replied:
"Unicorns are pure and flawless, quiet and intelligent."
"It is keenly aware of the malice around it and will not easily put itself in an unfavorable environment."
After saying that, he only gently handed her the gun.
"This gun is very precious, remember to put it away next time."
"My Miss Captain."
With that, he turned and walked forward.
Sylvid was left alone, holding the gun in her arms, staring at the back of the big boy in a daze, and for a moment, the back seemed to become mature and steady, overlapping with another, taller figure.
Sylvide smiled slightly, and there was a faint flush on her fair face.
And the team dispersed, of course, not only to find the material teleportation point, but more importantly, to figure out the situation in the twelve underground floors as soon as possible. Fang Yu believed that whether it was the Rainlisteners, the Jeffrey Redcoats, or those small guilds, they would never be safe until now.
If Torragotos were hidden in any of them, it would have found a way to provoke contradictions between these people, and in this dark underground, it would have made these people who were not of the same heart suspicious of each other.
That's too easy.
But now they need to figure out what the situation is now - did the Jeffrey Redcoats use the Night Lizards to attack other guilds? Guilds have fallen into the trap of rain-listeners?
Is the silence on the Redcoats' communication channel a sign that everyone is almost dead? Or is there something else going on?
If they don't even know this information, they rush into the center of the whirlpool, I'm afraid that they will not be enough to fill in the gaps between Torragotos's teeth.
However, the facts proved Fang Yuan's judgment, and soon there was a summary of all kinds of news.
"Big guy, we seem to have found the material teleportation point, and we saw the direction in which the teleportation beam fell, not far from here." The first good news came from the side of the ink-dyed bamboo.
"Well done." Fang Yu approved.
But only a moment later, the priest also sent a message: "There seems to be a fight in front of us here, asking for the support of the clockwork fairy." ”
"Fighting, are the two sides?"
"There seem to be night lizardmen."
Fang Yu's heart moved, and he immediately said, "Don't act rashly first, transfer the nearby map, and we will be there soon." ”
He couldn't help but look at the Lizard Warrior Captain that Tenaric was dragging in his hand behind him, and thought to himself that this oil bottle was finally going to come in handy.
