Chapter Ninety-Four: The Secret of the Cave of Evil
Leon's sensing was not wrong, and the two who came were none other than the captain of the vulture squad today, Dorne Lester, the archer, and Patrick Beverly, the thief.
I don't know why, the two of them deliberately covered up their tracks all the way, and cautiously came to this remote corner not far from the camp. One was an archer with great eyesight, and the other was a thief who was good at concealing speed, but neither of them expected that a skeleton resurrected by a necromancer in the bushes not far from them was watching them motionlessly.
It's just that because Leon's mental power is not strong enough, the distance is relatively far, and at the same time he is worried about being discovered, Leon can only sense the surrounding situation through the spiritual connection and the soul perception of the Wolverine skeleton. For this skeleton that can't see or hear, Leon scratched his ears and cheeks a little anxiously, and now what these two people will say, he can't know at all, and he can only vaguely sense the breath of the two through spiritual perception.
If only your pet could see and hear like a druid's raven.
It was as if he was eavesdropping on the corner of the wall, but he couldn't hear anything because of his poor hearing, and this feeling of scratching his heart with a hundred claws made Leon extremely painful.
Lester walked unhurriedly in front, while Beverley followed behind, one position behind. Seeing that Lester suddenly stopped, but still didn't say a word, Beverly cautiously stepped forward and asked softly, "Boss?" ”
Lester looked up at the unusually bright moon in the sky, but he didn't answer. After being silent for a long time, and Beverly felt a little trembling in his heart, Lester asked faintly: "Beverly, do you think that I can't control the form anymore, and I can't compare to Jackson?" ”
Beverly's heart tightened when he heard Lester call out his name. As usual, when meeting in private, Lester would definitely affectionately call himself by his nickname, Pat. Although there was no emotional fluctuation in his tone, Beverly keenly sensed the dissatisfaction in Lester's heart from the title. And Lester's questioning behind made Beverly even more shocked, and he hurriedly defended.
"Chief, how can you think that? The stinky stone in our vulture squad is dead and follows you, and I am also your person in life, and your ghost in death, just a Jackson, with two minds. Can he still turn the sky out of the sky alone? How can you say that you have absolute control over the situation, how can that Erwuzai compare with you? ”
"That guy Jackson dared to disobey my orders at noon, and even planned to compare with me twice, what were you doing at that time? I heard with my own ears that guy told you to stand with him. Why, do you really think you're going to mess with him, or are you acting so well that he thinks you're going to follow him and me? Well, Patrick Beverly? ”
Lester's tone grew colder and colder, and as he spoke, he took his eyes off the night sky and turned his head to stare coldly at Beverly, like an eagle's eye, converging all his expressions and movements.
Beverly lowered his head, felt a piercing gaze, and his back was cold, and even he was so nervous that he broke out in a cold sweat. He rolled his eyes and quickly responded, "Head, you misunderstood me. How could I go against you and go to that Erwuzai. Didn't you say tell me to try to get close to him and make him think I was his confidant? That's when I complained to him, deliberately speaking ill of you, so that he could let his guard down and take the opportunity to approach her. This time has slowly taken effect. If I stand firmly on your side at noon, wouldn't it be too conspicuous and wasted all my efforts? ”
"Oh, is it? So, are you doing this for my own good? ”
"Of course, of course. I also want to complete the task you gave me as soon as possible, and find out the secret as soon as possible. ”
"Then I'm really wrong about you, but this guy is getting bolder now. It seems that he comprehended that powerful primary skill not long ago, which made him feel a lot more confident, and he felt that he could argue with me. But I still have a way to deal with him, or if it weren't for the secret I found out, I would have killed him and avenged the Lem and them. Think about your role clearly, don't be fooled by him in a few words, when the time comes. Do you know what the outcome will be? ”
Feeling Lester's tone become a little gentler, and the powerful and sharp momentum just now disappeared, Beverly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, it seems that the justification just now is still effective.
"Remember, remember, of course, I'm the one who does things for you, how could I let that guy fool."
"Don't be too nervous, the matter is done, and you will naturally have great benefits at that time, not to mention how much wealth and opportunities that secret can bring us, just this rookie magician I met this time, if you can get a way to break through the barrier from him, not only can you easily advance to the beginner, but even the intermediate level is easy for us."
Punching a stick to give two dates, Lester's move is also to knock Beverly and make him recognize his role. Because through this period of observation, Lester vaguely felt that Beverley seemed to have a slight change in his attitude towards himself and Jackson. Especially after Jackson comprehended the primary skill that he had loved for a long time, it was said that this skill was as powerful as an ordinary intermediate skill. If the people at both ends of this snake and rat don't beat it well, it is really possible to get out of control.
"I will definitely complete the task you gave me successfully, I will remember in my life the kindness you gave me to help me solve that trouble and let me get out of their hands, you just let me die, I don't blink an eyelid." Beverly was busy showing his loyalty.
"Well, I know your character, and there is no need to mention those things in the past, you are no longer the wild dog of King's Harbor. Pat, tell me about your recent discovery, did he talk about that incident again, what secrets are there under the evil cave that makes him so obsessed, and has been suppressing his strength to not be promoted to the first level. ”
Think about a tavern half a year ago, when a drunk Jackson accidentally revealed a little information about the secrets of the Evil Cave to alert himself, and think about the big change that happened to the team two years ago, the old team members were almost wiped out in the Evil Cave, only Lem and Jackson survived. He and Ston were away on other missions, and they were spared death without participating in this mission. But for that encounter, the two only said that they had encountered an extremely powerful mutant monster, but they were secretive about the details and were vague.
Leicester only thought that a big change had happened, and the two were stimulated and didn't want to talk about it too much. But it didn't take long for Lem to have an accident during a training trip and lost his life. If it were normal, this kind of thing would be very common for the adventurers, but Lester overheard Lem mention that someone wanted to harm him during that time, and if there was an accident, someone must have bad intentions, but he didn't say who this person was.
And Lem did have an accident later, which made Lester more concerned. It's just that there is a team building to face later, a few team members saw that there was no backer, so they withdrew from the group and joined other adventure teams, he just took over the captain, many people were not convinced, he did not say these doubts in order not to make trouble, just secretly observed, and sure enough, found some abnormalities.
It wasn't until later that Jackson made a drunken mistake that his judgment was confirmed. That's why Beverly, an outsider who is not his hardcore thief, lurks around Jackson to find out the news.
Feeling that Lester's attitude returned to normal again, the pressure in Beverley's heart was also relaxed, it seemed that he was just knocking and knocking himself, and he was not too suspicious and anxious. But when you think about the feeling of being in a hurry to play with the two of them to applaud, it's really ridiculous and a little exciting.
Thinking that he was a double agent on both Leicester and Jackson, and that they both trusted him to find out each other's truth, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a smile. It's just that on the outside, Beverly lowered his head, but Lester didn't notice the change in his expression.
You've done the math but you haven't figured it out, and now I know the secrets of both of you, and I, Beverley, will be the final winner!
