Chapter 57: The Hunter and the Prey (1 Update)
"Where have you been?"
Mina was standing at the doorway of the room with Tina chatting when she saw him appear and ask where he was.
"Went around and around."
Chu Fei replied casually, seeing that there was nothing abnormal about Tina, he felt a little relieved.
"By the way, where is today's itinerary?"
Ask Mina about today's arrangement.
Because they arrived at Freeport yesterday on a hurried march, they were already very tired and in no mood to pay attention to other things, so they decided to rest first, so they did not talk about the arrangements after coming to Freeport.
"Wait for the next round to start. I heard that the next round of the tournament is on an archipelago overseas, and you need to take a boat to get there. So I guess we have to wait for the same thing today. ”
"Yes."
Chu Fei understood that when she said this, today was the time for rest and free activities.
"I just went out for a walk, and I didn't notice the Bloodclan following us, and it didn't look like they were in the city. But I heard a message. ”
"Message? What's the news? ”
Chu Fei was curious about what she had heard.
Tina replied, "Some people are talking about the Holy Church's plan to use this mercenary conference to select the best mercenaries to join the Holy Cult Army and expand the Holy Cult Army. ”
"Really?"
Chu Fei was skeptical of this news, but he was already thinking about whether to use this opportunity to join the Holy Church Army and officially hook up with the Holy Church to invade the Holy Church.
"I guess it's true." Tina herself is not entirely sure, but is more inclined to believe that it is true, saying, "There are a lot of people talking about it, and it shouldn't be a lie." ”
Chu Fei groaned, considering the pros and cons of this matter.
"I wouldn't have joined anyway if I had the chance. Those religious lunatics are annoying to look at. Mina waved her hand, expressing her absolute resistance, and it seemed that she did not have an ordinary disgust for the Holy Church, and wrote all this disgust on her face.
Chu Fei was told by her and noticed that what she said made sense. Even if he joins the Holy Cult Army, he is only a kind of guardian of the Holy Church, and it is very likely that he will never set foot on the Holy Mountain in his life, let alone have the opportunity to meet the Pope.
With the particularity of his ability, if he really penetrates the inside, he is actually a cloud of masters inside, but he has a great possibility of being exposed.
"By the way, what about Koin and Kura?"
Seeing how only the two of them were standing at the door chatting.
Mina pointed out and said, "Kura helped Koon touch up her makeup after taking a bath, and after taking a shower last night, she found that her disguise was a little out of shape." ”
Chu Fei immediately understood when he heard her say this, and he was also patiently waiting for the arrival of the content of the next round of competition.
……
Dusk fell in this harbor city, and all the mercenaries, including Chu Fei, got the news from the Mercenary Guild at this time and gathered at the dock of Freeport. Listen to several high-level mercenaries from the Mercenary Guild announce the content of their next round of competition.
Knowing that their next round target is to be on the overseas island of Phuket, knowing that they will enter the interior of the island in the order of completing the mission, and begin to search and find the tomb of the legendary King Odin on the island on their own, they also know that this will be a cruel game of hunters and prey.
However, compared to this situation, Chu Fei was more concerned about the ......
"That's the Holy Maiden of the Holy Church."
He didn't expect to find out so coincidentally that they were sailing on the same ship as the Holy Church. I saw a blonde girl being guarded by several male and female Holy Cult Forces, and like the other contestants who had entered the second round, they found an area on the deck of the sea ship as their own territory, and waited patiently for the time to arrive at the second venue.
"It should be, but it is worthy of the title of goddess of light, Vicia, the saint of light, seeing her really has a feeling of wanting to follow and protect her." Tina's eyes were confused, and she was about to fall for the charm of the saintess.
"Vicia?"
Chu Fei was surprised that the two generations of saints were called Vesia, and asked Tina, "Isn't the saint Vesia already dead?" "I know that if this Vicia is that Vicia, she should have been dead for many years.
"That's why she's resurrected, the goddess reincarnated, and I heard that she was only recently found by the Holy Church." Tina sued him.
Chu Fei was immediately surprised and understood, and understood that Visia was dead, but alive again in another sense. As if the reincarnation of a living Buddha in Buddhism is not really dead for such people.
I couldn't help but look at this holy woman twice, and noticed that there were many familiar faces on their ship. Not only Harvey and the members of the Royal Academy of Magic, but also Hado and Siu and that Saki. I didn't expect that they didn't know how to get through the first round of pre-selection and successfully entered this round, and they happened to be sitting on the same boat with them.
"In the second round, we have to think about countermeasures."
Iron Bear's voice buzzed, drawing their attention. His eyes also swept over these familiar faces grimly, and he said, "There is too much mystery in the rules of the second round. Go to the island in the order of the first round of the tongguò? It is completely to tell everyone that those who go to the island first can have the opportunity to ambush or even set traps, and can hinder or even kill the members who go to the island later. The later the island, the more disadvantaged. ”
"Understand, it looks like the second round is going to be more lively than the first round." Tina said with full of fighting spirit, and she understood the mystery of this rule.
"How many are we?"
Chu Fei asked Mina, because the speed at which they completed the first round of selection was still very fast, and it was she who flew to the location first to announce the completion of the task, so this ranking would not be too far behind.
"No. 10, it should be the 10th batch to enter."
Tina replied helplessly, hinting at the fact that there were many strong people in this mercenary conference. In the case where they only acted because they had a night's rest, they were on the verge of falling out of the top 10.
"So strong."
Chu Fei knew that this new venue would be very dangerous, because all the teams that passed through Guò had to land on this island to search for the tomb of the dwarf King Odin, so it could be said that the players who entered the second round were all their enemies, which also meant that they would have a great chance of colliding head-on with the top 9 teams.
"It seems that many people have noticed this situation and have begun to choose to unite."
The piano speaks quietly, reminding them to pay attention to their surroundings.
At this time, you can see that the distribution was clear when you first boarded the ship, and now because some teams have taken the initiative to contact other teams, the guide has slowly divided into some new sections, which proves that many teams have reached a union before. It was decided to eliminate the "outsiders" first, and then compete internally.
"Then we can't just watch it."
Chu Fei saw that there was only one group of people who had not moved here, and they were the only two groups of people from the Holy Church, so he simply stood up and walked directly to the Holy Church, making Qin Yin, them, and the people of the Holy Church all look at him in surprise.
