Chapter 183: Wetlands
The location identified by the map was behind the southern shore of Lake Erum, and although it was not clear what was going on, it would not have been a good thing to have two quasi-A-class guerrillas not even have time to sound the alarm. After a brief discussion, Lloyd asked Fran to prepare a dinghy for transportation, while his group went to the Guerrilla Association to report the current news to Michelle. When everything was ready, the group quickly headed to the harbor area and took the prepared dinghy to the wetlands on the southern shore of Lake Elum, but everything did not go as smoothly as expected.
"Tsk, this fog is too thick, isn't it? The weather forecast didn't say that there was such a thick fog. The dinghy drove slowly through the lake, and Randy couldn't help but frown at the sudden fog.
"Be careful, the fog doesn't always feel natural." Ike replied by reaching out and touching the fog. The dense fog full of water vapor, although it came very suddenly, was no different from the usual fog, but Ike had some bad premonitions, which could not be said to have a basis, but on the battlefield, his intuition was often more trustworthy than the basis.
"Slow down, Theo, can you feel the rock walls around you?" Lloyd quickly ordered.
"Yes, no problem!"
"Very good, keep moving forward like this, it's impossible to turn back now, be careful." Lloyd said.
Through Theo's guidance, although it was a little thrilling, it finally docked safely at the edge of the wetland, and through the dense fog, you could vaguely see a dinghy docked on the shore, but to everyone's surprise, it was no longer a dinghy that existed as evidence at this time.
"ThisβThis is...
"I didn't expect it... Since there is such a thing ... β
On the wetland that comes into view, the demonic plant - the Wisdom Grass grows wantonly, the Wisdom Grass, which is extremely rare even in the suburbs, is growing at will like a vegetable in the wetland at this time, and the little blue light emitted by the Spirit Grass is scattered on the wetland through the dense fog, flickering like a firefly, it is so beautiful from the outside, but when it sounds, looking at this scene makes everyone shudder.
"We ... Is it a dream? Randy said subconsciously.
"The spatial structure here has changed." Ike stepped forward and spoke, plucked a spirit grass, and grabbed a handful of soil, and said with a look of disbelief, "The change of the spatial structure allows the spiritual grass to grow, and the prosperity of the spiritual grass has stimulated the accelerated change of the spatial structure... I see, the raw material for Joasim's production of True Knowledge must have been obtained from here. Ike blushed and violently clutched the spiritual grass in his hand into a ball and threw it to the ground at random.
"yes, this should be it."
In the thick fog, a voice sounded out of place. Immediately after, Silver's figure emerged from the thick fog.
"Silver?! Why are you here?! Lloyd asked, surprised.
"That's what I wanted to ask." Silver replied coldly, "The snake is about to move, and the leader of the bad gang has turned into a demon. The blue flower and the incredible phantom beast that appeared at the same time... Follow these clues to investigate here, and I will encounter you... Looks like your investigative skills have improved a lot. β
"Huh?"
"Even if you noticed that this place was suspicious, so you came here to investigate?" Randy asked, still in disbelief.
"Exactly... Well? Looks like you're here for a different purpose than I am, right? Sensing the strangeness in everyone's eyes, Silver asked.
βγγγ The situation is special, so I will tell you what happened. Lloyd said.
"Hmmm... It turned out that the boat was driven by those two guerrillas... Oh, I see, from this, it seems that I am close to the heart of the situation. After listening to Lloyd's short narrative, Silver thought for a moment and then muttered to himself.
"Silver, do you already know something?"
"Who knows, this is a trade secret, and the contract I signed with Black Moon contains these, and I won't reveal them to you." Silver replied, "Then you will find the two guerrillas, and I will first-"
"Nope." Lloyd suddenly interrupted Silver, shook his head, and looked at Silver with a serious face, "Silver... How about we act together? β
"Huh?!"
"Hey, are you serious?" Waji said in surprise.
βγγγ Bannings, are you not aware of the current situation? β
Instead of getting the expected consent, Silver looked at Lloyd with some annoyance, "I have a different position from you, and I have no common interests, unlike when I was in the hospital, and now I have no benefit at all to cooperate with you-"
"Not at all? No way? Lloyd said confidently, "Miss Lin and Miss Eolia both have superb strength close to A-rank, if those two join forces, I am afraid they can match Mr. Arios." And the danger ahead is so high that it can even leave the two of them without any news... Can you really assert that there is no problem with you alone? β
"And Miss Lin, they must also have relevant information, from the perspective of efficiency, we should indeed cooperate." Ellie added.
βγγγ What about you, Ike. Silver suddenly looked at Ike, "Are you willing to be their helper?" β
"Although they are a little too naΓ―ve in their positioning of strength, there is still a reason." Ike replied, "If you can't even send out a communication with a quasi-A-class guerrilla, you should gather at least three or more executors in the case of snakes." Maybe the 'top five' personnel will be sent over, and if you want to run with this kind of combat power, you may be able to run away, but you don't have to think about intelligence or anything. β
βγγγ Hmph, well, I'll be with you for the time being. However, if the Wind Blademaster arrives, I will leave immediately. No problem, right? β
"yes, I see." Lloyd nodded decisively, "Then without further ado, let's hurry up." β
"But now this number... Randy swept around the crowd, "For this kind of task suitable for squad activities, the number of people is a bit too much, which is really not conducive to flexible action." If a demonic beast strikes suddenly, it may be a mess. β
"How about choosing two people to stay here as follow-up personnel, who are already in charge of protecting the ship?" Ike said, "If the Wind Sword Saint came over, it would be better to have a guide, wouldn't it?" β
βγγγ In that case, Navaji and Noelle, please stay here. β
"Understood."
"I'll leave it to us."
