Chapter 271: Meaning

It was pitch black all the way, and even with dim vision, Ryan's feet slowed down significantly, and the man behind him was a little surprised by comparison. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

From being almost thrown away at the beginning, to following closely now, the elf girl's mobility has not been affected at all, but because of the recovery of her physical strength at this time, her speed is a few points faster than Ryan's.

"It's so dark here, where are we going?"

"It stinks, how long are we going to go?"

"By the way, I don't know your name yet?"

……

The girl didn't know if she wanted to distract her fear or if she had the attribute of chatterbox, and along the way, she didn't stop at all. Although her voice is indeed delicate and crisp and very pleasant, but she can't stand the same question as a cannon, Ryan can't help but let out a long sigh: "I said, aren't you tired?" ”

"Not tired? I've recovered, don't worry. Answering Ryan very seriously, the girl clearly did not understand the meaning of his words.

But I'm tired......

I thought about it in my heart, after all, the girl encountered this kind of danger at such a young age, and Ryan was only when she was diluting the psychological shadow, plus the other party was very similar to a friend of his in terms of height and voice, he relented for a while and didn't care about it anymore.

But the other party doesn't seem to want to end there.

"Hey, you haven't told me what your name is?"

Ryan ......

"Don't have a last name?"

“……”

"My name is Tanya, please advise."

“……”

"Didn't you ask me why I didn't mention my last name?"

“…… So, for ...... Wait, don't elves all have a specific surname? ”

"Huh! How do you know? ”

“……”

The elven girl seemed to have a kind of magic, and although she chattered all the way, Ryan was not irritated, and even felt that her surroundings seemed to be a little brighter than at the beginning.

"Look, there's a light there!"

Well, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with her......

When I looked up, I saw a faint fire flickering around the corner at the end.

"Your Excellency, this is much earlier than the Duke expected." As Ryan and the two approached, a small boat appeared in their sight, and a rickety old man stood at the bow with a kerosene lamp, smiling extremely flattering at Ryan.

"You're worried about how efficiently I'm doing things?" Ryan didn't know what he was thinking, from the perspective of an ordinary mage, the guards of Rylis's lair were not easy to solve, and it was indeed a little unbelievable that he came out so quickly.

"Of course not, I always trust you." Moving out of the way, the boatman motioned for Ryan to take a seat, and then saw the man behind him, and couldn't help but show doubts, "Who is this?" ”

The girl had already put on her hood at Ryan's signal, and the boatman didn't know that she was an elf, and at the same time, he didn't know how strange the outfit on her face was.

"A friend." The girl clutched her cloak, feeling the other's nervousness, Ryan shook her head silently, but the concise explanation was not as simple as it seemed.

I didn't say it.

Pouting, the boatman made an embarrassed expression: "My lord, that, you know, the location of the stronghold needs to be kept secret, it's better to bother this friend......"

Although he did not continue, the look and movements of the boatman spoke for themselves.

Ryan suddenly frowned, and his face sank instantly: "What's the matter, multiple people are scared?" Didn't the Syndicate even have that bit of faith and courage? Looks like I should think about whether I should continue to work with you at all. ”

"No, no, no problem at all!" Seeing that Ryan wanted to turn around and walk away as soon as his words fell, the boatman panicked suddenly. After all, Facurrest has a lot of expectations for this mage, and if he loses him because of himself, the consequences will be unimaginable!

"In that case, let's go."

The Syndicate's underground stronghold, with the faint light of the fire, Facurrest kept looking through the information that Walter had just retrieved.

"It looks like the Senate is reacting faster than we thought." The duke's forehead furrowed slightly.

As the leader of an intelligence organization, anything that goes different from what is expected is a failure, just like a businessman who wants to earn all the gold coins, and the Duke can't accept that O'Dulin exists something he doesn't know.

"I don't know if that mage can get out in time, it's a pity, I originally wanted to compete with him." In the corner, Varik, hidden in the shadows, played with the dagger like a butterfly fluttering at his fingertips, "Now it seems that there is no chance." ”

Walter, who was standing next to the duke, showed a sneering expression: "If you can't do it, it doesn't mean that others can't either, it's really a shame for your code name, speechless?" I think you might as well change your name to the Incompetent. ”

Hearing this, Varik's eyes suddenly sharpened, and the dagger was instantly grasped tightly by him in his hand: "Question my ability? Vulture, you should have lost me more than once, right? ”

"That's enough." If the two continue to quarrel, there is a chance that it will turn into a battle, of course the duke will not sit idly by, and let the two shut up with a loud shout, and then set his eyes on the door, "Pay attention to the image, we have guests coming." ”

"I'm busy outside, but you're idle to your own infighting? Interesting...... "Before the person arrived, the sarcastic words made the faces of the three people in the room instantly darken.

Pushing open the door, Ryan walked in with a sneer on his face.

"Congratulations...... Who is this? The smile on his face paused suddenly, and Facurest's brow twisted imperceptibly as he looked at the girl who was following Ryan closely.

It seems that there are a lot of uncontrollable things lately......

"Friends." Perfunctory answers, it is not difficult to see from Ryan's indifferent expression that the latter will not answer his questions carefully.

"As long as she doesn't get in the way of our plans." Nodding, the duke didn't bother anymore, the unknown is a challenge for the intelligence organization.

"Don't talk about those useless things, I did what I had to do, and now it's up to you." Although he knew that the other party had probably seen through his disguise, he still had to do a full set of acts, and Ryan still looked rebellious.

The elf girl behind him was very surprised, but at the same time she was also very clever, because the atmosphere along the way was very oppressive, she didn't say a word.

"Sir, don't be anxious, my duke's reputation is not a joke." Facurrest smiled, then reached out to Walter, who took out a bulging money bag from his bosom, and unusually, a delicate brass key hung from the string.

"A little meaning, talk about your heart." Handing the money bag to Ryan's hand, a hint of inexplicable color flashed across Facurest's face.
