Chapter 17: The Past of Cloud and Thunder

After Lin Fan and Elvina left, they slowly walked on the way back, but they didn't say anything all the way, and the atmosphere was a little dull.

I don't know how long it took for everyone to return to the base of the mercenary group, so after saying hello awkwardly, they quickly slipped away and escaped from this somewhat dignified atmosphere, leaving only Diesel, Lin Fan and Elvina.

Diesel looked at the two who still hadn't communicated at all, sighed, patted Lin Fan's shoulder, and turned to leave, leaving the two standing side by side.

Alvina bit her lips lightly, her brow furrowed, and she wanted to explain something, but she couldn't say anything when the words came to her mouth.

"I know it all." Lin Fan broke the silence first.

"Uncle Diesel told you?" Elvina asked, looking down.

"I forced him to say it."

"Oh, that'...... Do you blame me? ”

"I don't blame you, and I want to thank you!"

"Thank me for what?"

"Thank you for thinking of me!"

"This is originally our own business of the Cloud Thunder Mercenary Group, I just don't think there is any need to bother you, but the method is a little ...... I'm sorry! ”

"There's no need to say anything I'm sorry, maybe since I appeared in front of you that night, it was destined that we would go through something together, and we couldn't escape if we wanted to." Lin Fan shook his head.

"Do you regret it?" Elvina asked softly.

"Regret what?" Lin Fan was stunned.

"Saved me that night!" Alvina looked at Lin Fan.

"No regrets, what about you? Do you regret taking in me, the troublemaker? Lin Fan said with a smile.

"Don't regret it, haha, the coastline is blocked, you can't leave for the time being, if you stay here, you may have to face the suppression of the Sea Serpent Mercenary Group, are you still willing to stay here?" Alvina asked, tilting her head.

"It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, isn't it just a fight, it's not that I haven't fought, I don't believe it, can he still play with the Sea Snake Mercenary Group?" Lin Fan pretended to be vicious and said.

"Then we will be in the same boat from now on, please advise us in the future!"

A bright smile instantly bloomed on Elvina's face, and she stretched out her white and tender right hand to Lin Fan.

"Lots of advice!"

The two hands were clasped tightly together for a long time.

"Ahem...... Well, I'm a little impulsive today, so I won't cause any trouble to the mercenary group, right? ”

Looking at Ervina's increasingly red face, Lin Fan let go of his hand in embarrassment and quickly changed the topic.

Elvina glanced at Lin Fan angrily, and said slowly:

"No, Miss Sarah came forward today, the Sea Snake Mercenary Group should not dare to trouble us for the time being, and the Blue Flame Chamber of Commerce should also be more restrained, this matter is really thanks to you, if it weren't for your battle today, we really have no other way but to fight with the Sea Snake Mercenary Group."

"That's good, since we're all in the same boat, tell me about the grievances with the Sea Serpent Mercenary Group, so that I can understand it somewhat."

"It all had to start more than half a year ago, when my father was still the leader of the Cloud Thunder Mercenary Regiment, and I was just a carefree little girl......" Speaking of the past, Elvina's face showed a trace of nostalgia and pain.

More than half a year ago, the head of the Yunlei Mercenary Group was still Elvina's father, Raul Clegg, a fifth-order fighter, and a well-known master in the entire Bilgewater, with dozens of mercenary group members under his command, under its correct leadership, the entire mercenary group was thriving, and there were many talents, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was the first mercenary group in Bilgewater, and at that time, Alvina was just an innocent third-order fighting genius girl.

However, one night, everything changed, and for some unknown reason, the head of the regiment, Raul, suddenly fainted and fell to the ground, and has been unconscious ever since.

For this reason, the Yunlei Mercenary Group invited countless doctors to treat the head of Raul, but all the doctors said that they could not help after examining their bodies, because they could not find out what was wrong, and finally a knowledgeable magic apothecary gave the answer.

The pharmacist told Alvina that her father had been poisoned, and it was a special poison made by a black mage, and there were generally two ways to cure this poison, one was that the poisoned person's own strength was much higher than that of the black mage who made the poison, and he directly forced the poison out with hard power; The second method is to find a light mage who is in conflict with the dark attribute of the black mage, and use light healing magic to heal it.

Ordinary people are poisoned by this poison and die in a moment, but her father just fell into a coma, indicating that the strength of the black mage who poisoned her was slightly lower than that of her father, and the toxicity was temporarily suppressed, but it was not enough to completely remove the toxin, so if she wanted to save her father, she had to find a light mage.

But the light magicians are too rare, and the entire mercenary group has been looking for a long time, but they still can't find it, and without the leadership of the head of Raul, coupled with the fact that the Sea Serpent mercenary group is not weak, it took the opportunity to suppress it, and the cloud thunder mercenary group finally failed to withstand the pressure and began to fall apart, and finally, Elvina broke through the fourth order and stepped forward to take on the responsibility of the head of the group, and only then did she take the remaining members and struggling to maintain until now.

"Tired, aren't you?" Lin Fan looked at Elvina distressedly.

Although she said it lightly, Lin Fan could still imagine the hardships she had to endure all the way, she shouldn't have endured so much.

"Hehe, it's okay, I'm used to it!" Elvina smiled softly, slightly bitter.

"Still haven't found the Light Mage?"

Alvina's beautiful eyes were misty, and she shook her head helplessly.

"Did the Sea Serpent mercenary group do it?"

"It's just suspicion, there's no conclusive evidence."

"When I first met you, the three men who chased you were also sent by the Sea Serpent?"

"That's right, I was poisoned at that time, and I couldn't use my fighting energy, otherwise I wouldn't have been forced to be so embarrassed by three first-order thieves."

"Poison again? Who ordered it? ”

"Sheila, my good friend, daughter of the leader of the Sea Serpent Mercenary Regiment!" Alvina said through gritted teeth.

"How did you become good friends with the Sea Serpent Mercenary Regiment?" Lin Fan was a little surprised.

"Although the Sea Serpent Mercenary Group has been suppressing us for more than half a year, Sheila has never been involved, and often secretly helps us fight against her father, and slowly we have taken off our guard against her, and only regarded her as a kind little girl, but I didn't expect ...... Alas, I was so naΓ―ve! Alvina sighed.

"I can't blame you, you're just too kind and willing to trust others." Lin Fan shook his head: "Can I see Uncle Raul?" ”

"Come with me."

Lin Fan followed behind Elvina and walked into a room, the furnishings in the room were simple and simple, but spotless, obviously often cleaned, on the bed in the bedroom, there was a middle-aged man in his forties lying at this time, this person's eyes were closed, his face was a little pale, the skeleton on his exposed arm was clearly visible, and his body looked extremely thin.

Alvina soaked the towel in the basin of water, stepped forward and sat on the edge of the bed gently, carefully wiped the middle-aged man's cheeks, looked a little sad, and said to herself:

"Father, I'm recuperating from my injuries during this time, so I don't need to move around too much, so I rarely come to visit you, don't mind."

Raul, who was in a coma, naturally didn't react, and Lin Fan didn't bother, until Elvina greeted him, and then came to the bedside and looked at Raul carefully.

On closer inspection, Raul's cheeks and eye sockets were deeply sunken at this time, and he was so thin that he was almost only skinny and bone-like, and he was holding on to it in one breath, and if he continued like this, he might not last long.

"This ...... How much longer? ”

"There's a month left."

"Is there no other way?"

Alvina shook her head, tears rolling in her eyes, biting her lip tightly and trembling a little, she tilted her head, trying to restrain herself, not wanting the tears to fall.

Lin Fan didn't know how to comfort her, sat beside her, patted her shoulder, and said softly: "If you need it, lend you your shoulder." ”

Ervina couldn't hold back the raging tears anymore, and lay on Lin Fan's shoulder and cried: "What should I do? I can't help it, I can't help it, I really can't help it! ”

"Cry, just cry." Lin Fan gently patted her back and let her vent to her heart's content, she had been suppressed for too long and too long.

"Thank you!" Alvina cried for a long time before she finally calmed down.

"Going to give up?" Lin Fan asked.

"I don't want to, my father is my only relative, but I really can't help it." Elvina's eyes began to moisten again.

"Maybe I can give it a try, but I can't guarantee that it will work, can you believe me?" Lin Fan looked at Elvina sincerely.

"I believe in you!" Looking at Lin Fan's sincere gaze, for some reason, a glimmer of hope rose in Elvina's heart and chose to believe.

"Rest assured, at least it won't get any worse." Lin Fan smiled slightly, put his right hand on Raul's abdomen, and closed his eyes.

As soon as his mind moved, a wisp of spiritual power went down his arm and entered Raul's dantian, and the situation in the dantian presented in his mind.

At this time, the Dou Qi cyclone, which should have been nebula-shaped, shrank into a ball, wrapping one of the black energy bodies like a protective film, preventing it from leaking, but there was a break on this layer of Dou Qi protective film, causing the black energy body to escape from the encirclement of the Dou Qi at a slow speed, and it was slowly eroding the Dou Qi protective film to strengthen itself.

"The black is the black magic toxin, it can actually use the fighting spirit to develop and grow, plus Uncle Raul fell into a coma, the fighting spirit can only be recovered naturally, and the replenishment is slow, so it's no wonder it will deteriorate."

As Lin Fan's spiritual power probed Raul's whole body, he found that the black toxin not only escaped from the encirclement of the fighting qi, but also spread to the whole body along the meridians, and the situation was very bad.

"Let's try to see if my idea works." Lin Fan's heart moved, the thunder attribute magic power in the Divine Palace was running, and a tiny electric current entered Raul's dantian along his arm, and under his control, it slowly approached a wisp of black toxin that overflowed.

"Zi~Zi~Poof!"

The electric current collided with the black toxin, and after a stalemate for a while, the black toxin was finally blasted away and turned into nothingness.

"It worked!" Lin Fan's heart was excited.

When Elvina cried, he remembered that in the traditional culture of the earth, thunder is the nemesis of all demons and spirits, so here, can thunder attribute magic also restrain black magic?

Raul's state couldn't wait any longer, so he could only try it as a dead horse doctor, and the result was really as he thought, and it was effective.

Immediately afterwards, he expelled all the toxins that spread throughout his body in one go, but when it came to removing the toxin energy body in the dantian, he encountered difficulties, and the toxins easily defeated his thunder attribute magic, so he could only choose to use thunder attribute magic to seal the gap first and prevent it from spreading again.

"It seems that my strength is still not enough." Lin Fan opened his eyes.

"How?" Alvina asked nervously.

"Uncle Raul's condition has been maintained for the time being, and it will not deteriorate again, but my current strength is too low to completely cure him." Lin Fan smiled bitterly.

"Maintained? So my father was saved? Elvina looked at Lin Fan in disbelief.

"Hmm!" Lin Fan smiled and nodded.

"Thank you, Lin Fan!" A gust of fragrant wind swept by, and Alvina hugged Lin Fan again and cried.

"What happened to Uncle Raul and my battle with Huang Mao today made me suddenly understand something." Lin Fan stroked Elvina's back and said slowly.

Alvina stopped her tears and looked at Lin Fan suspiciously, not knowing what he meant.

Lin Fan looked up at the window, and suddenly smiled slightly, his gaze became deep and firm:

"I suddenly understood that this world is very cruel, if you want to survive in this world, reasoning will not work, here, the fist is the biggest truth, only your fist is bigger than others, harder than others, at that time you have the right to choose, so, I want to become stronger, to become stronger than everyone else!"

At this time, a beam of sunlight spilled in from the window and shone on Lin Fan's body, at this time, his face full of domineering and confidence looked a little dazzling under the sunlight, and Alvina was a little fascinated for a while......

β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”

The Sea Serpent Mercenary Group, the dying yellow fur was lying in the center of the council room.

"Rubbish! I can't even clean up a hairy boy, it's really a waste! The fierce-looking middle-aged man yelled at Paul, who was standing with his head bowed to the side.

"Subordinates should be damned, please punish the boss!"

"Father, don't be angry, although that kid's strength is a little unexpected, but it's not Uncle Paul's fault, if it weren't for Captain Sarah's appearance, that kid would already be a waste, it's just an accident." Sheila explained.

"Hmph, that damn woman!" The middle-aged man slammed his fist on the table.

"Don't worry, there will be a chance for your revenge soon." Planck leaned against the door of the council chamber: "The sea snake is more restrained for the time being, don't be targeted by that crazy woman, it's not suitable to go toe-for-tat with her for the time being, I'll explain to the Blue Flame Chamber of Commerce over there of the Cloud Thunder Mercenary Group, let them take care of it, and wait until I fully recover." ”

"Yes, Master Planck!" The middle-aged man said respectfully, and after seeing him leave, he said to Paul, who was kneeling on the ground: "Tell the brothers to be honest lately, don't get down to business!" ”

"Yes, Boss, then he ......" Paul looked at the dying yellow hair.

"The Sea Serpent Mercenary Group doesn't raise waste, I don't want to see him again!" The middle-aged man said coldly.

"Understood!" Paul picked up the yellow hair and took his leave.
