Chapter 22: A Sense of Danger
Charles didn't say anything about this atmosphere, after all, he and Artoria were outsiders. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
But Charles didn't really speed up his pace, because a former head of the Star Mercenary Group was still alive and met his own requirements.
He would go to talk to Alicia at the entrance of the Mercenary Association in Agra City, naturally not because he was anxious to see Alicia's face as he said, but because he heard the gossip about her identity and the Star Shine Mercenary Group from the mercenaries around him.
A country with a long history and a well-known area of Dabris, but because of the disappearance of his own regiment leader with a large number of people in the mercenary group on a mission and fell into turmoil, isn't this a good opportunity to intervene in his own pocket, isn't it because of this reason that the Stoke family, who rules this area, will intervene in this matter, and Charles also has this purpose.
However, Charles chose a roundabout route, but in any case, it was definitely not in his interest to have an unharmed mercenary group leader, so Charles would do this, of course, they had indeed gone deep into the Valley of the Fallen Stars, and the threat posed by those chaotic forces of nature had indeed become greater.
Because of this, Gina did not doubt Charles's words, and just walked beside Charles with an anxious and uneasy face, showing Charles the way.
But even if she is anxious in her heart, Ji Na knows that she will be absolutely safe and sound in a short period of time on her own, if she retreats to the outside of the valley, then she can definitely do it, but if she wants to find someone in the Falling Star Valley full of fog and danger, Ji Na still doesn't want the Star Glory Mercenary Group to lose herself after losing the leader and that group of good hands, in that case, I am afraid that the Star Glory Mercenary Group will really be eaten up by other strengths.
So no matter how worried she was about her regimental commander, Ji Na could only hold back the urgency in her heart and follow Charles. And for Charles, who accompanied her into the dangerous place of the Falling Star Valley, Jina was also very grateful at this time, because she knew that if she entered the Falling Star Valley alone, she would be able to barely protect herself, but behind her, her subordinates and Alicia would definitely die without a place to bury.
In such an atmosphere, Charles and his party finally walked to the destination mentioned by the publisher of the mission received by the Star Shine Mercenary Group.
Scanning the vicinity slightly, Charles found that the forces of nature here did not seem to be so chaotic, and the order was not completely chaotic here, so there were many traces left on the ground.
But what alarmed Gina was that she didn't see a single figure here except for the traces of human activity.
"Isn't it, isn't it ......?"
The mercenaries behind him saw the empty mission destination, and their faces were also dead. When the Xingyao Mercenary Group is in trouble, those who can still stick to the garrison and never abandon the mercenary group must be the diehard loyalists of the mercenary group.
So seeing that they couldn't find the head of the regiment here, the hearts of these mercenaries instantly sank, and their whole bodies became cold, and it wasn't until Charles spoke that they barely cheered up a little.
"Maybe it's really like you said...... "Gina flashed a flash of light in her eyes, "but where are they going to be Patri, according to what you said, isn't it a good place to be here without too much confusion of the forces of nature." ”
Before Charles could speak, Alicia, who heard what they were talking about, immediately pounced on Gina with a pear blossom on her face, knowing that this was her brother's final destination here.
"Sister Jina, you, did you say that this is the destination of my brother and their coming to the Falling Star Valley, but what about them!"
Looking at Alicia in her arms, her eyes were red and her face was full of tears, a sadness flashed on her face, but she still forcibly cheered up and comforted Alicia, "Alicia, don't be anxious first, didn't Charles just say it, maybe Patrick and they just left here." ”
After saying that, Gina looked at Charles beside her with a hopeful face, hoping to get a confirmed answer from the other party's mouth, and did not disappoint her, Charles pondered slightly before speaking.
"It's true that the forces of order here aren't too chaotic, but the natural elements here aren't immune to eruptions." Charles closed his eyes, revealing a look of scrutinizing the forces of order around him.
"But there seems to be something else here that makes this place not as safe as it seems." Charles did not pretend, but really perceived a strange force here, different from the power hidden in the fog, because the two forces did not seem to be in harmony, giving Charles a kind of opposing power.
Hearing Charles really say this, Alicia showed a relieved look on her face, but then she began to worry about her brother's safety, because Alicia knew very well along the way that without Charles's protection, she would never be able to get here.
But although Alicia is simply inexperienced, it is undeniable that Alicia's strength is not bad, and in the same level, mages are always superhuman existences, because of their strong strength in the same level.
And Alicia is under the desperate cultivation of her sister-controlled regimental leader's brother, she has silver strength, if it weren't for the Patrick regiment leader who protected her sister too well, Alicia would definitely be the only general in the mercenary group.
So since he can't protect himself in the Falling Star Valley, can his brother do it, although I heard Gina say that the mission publisher gave her brother an item to protect them in the Falling Star Valley, but the fact that Patri has been missing for so long proves that the item doesn't seem to be as useful as it says.
But then Alicia suddenly said to Charles, "Then let's keep going, I'm worried about my brother's safety." ”
After saying that, Alicia left Jina's arms and wanted to get up to find her brother, but was suddenly pulled by Charles, which made Alicia, who was anxious about her brother's safety, turn around and look at Charles in confusion.
"Don't you feel tired after walking such a long way, even if you don't feel it, look at Ji Na and them."
Hearing Charles say this, Alicia looked around, and sure enough, Ji Na showed a trace of fatigue between their eyebrows, although in fact, it had only been more than an hour since they entered the Falling Star Valley, but the natural elemental power that could erupt at any time in the Falling Star Valley made them scared all the way, and their mental will was tense and naturally very tired.
And Charles mentioned this, a deep feeling of fatigue also surged up in the depths of Alicia's body, which made her feet weak, and Charles on the side quickly pulled Alicia's body with his eyes, otherwise he would fall to the ground, obviously because of the high concentration of her mind just now, Alicia ignored her physical fatigue.
But the mage's body has never been synonymous with strength, and even the mercenaries like Gena feel tired, how can Alicia be able to hold on.
Alicia also knew that if her body didn't rest, she wouldn't be able to walk any further, so she could only sit down anxiously in her heart, and everyone was here to rest for a while.
However, just as Charles sat on the ground and reached out to take the dry food handed over by Gina, about to eat some dry food to recover, a sudden sense of danger came to his heart, and this sense of danger made Charles tremble from the tail vertebrae to the body.
