"This is the ruins we searched before!" By the light of the bonfire, Ye Qi's index finger drew a circle along the mark on the map: "Although our original progress has been delayed due to the sudden incident of the Holy See, the ruins we searched before plus the ruins we searched for this time have been about a third of the way!" ”

"However, in the face of the one-third that has nothing to gain in the front, the remaining two-thirds is the key!" The little man added the key points for Ye Qi, and explained in detail to the other two companions beside him: "However, in the face of this big operation of the Holy See, the Demon Hunter Headquarters will definitely not remain indifferent; And in the Sennuma District, which has one of the fewest number of witchers, there is a more than 90% chance that we will be asked or given a mission by the headquarters in the next few days! ”

After a pause, and after taking a sip of the thick soup handed over by Ava, the little man continued:

"If we want to continue to enjoy the conveniences offered by the Witcher Headquarters, then we can't refuse requests or missions from the Headquarters; Therefore, I propose that I and Dallan's group accept the call up from the headquarters as representatives of Ye! ”

"With Orr leading the way, and Ava's animal companions as support, the speed of our search won't slow!" Ye Qi, who had once again added a few pieces of firewood to the campfire, made the final decision: "I will leave clues in every temporary stronghold; After you have completed your mission at HQ, follow the clues I left behind to meet up! ”

"Understood!"

……

Jacob, who was crouching on a boulder, frowned tightly, and the flame in his pipe flickered and flickered in a very rhythmic manner, exuding the characteristic brilliance of flame; When the flame in the pipe was completely extinguished, a sigh rang out.

"It's just an ambiguous message! There may not really be a war! Looking at his friend's melancholy appearance, Tate couldn't help but persuade: "And the headquarters is just letting us temporarily cooperate with the action!" ”

"Coordination is only temporary, and over time, there is definitely a chance that things will go in a direction that we absolutely do not want to see! You must know that among the signatories of this urgent document, there is Ye Qi's guy! ”

Jacob, who stood up from the boulder and looked up at the starry sky, said in a hoarse voice; The voice that was hoarse because of the injury to the vocal cords was even more sad in Jacob's low mood at this moment.

Those who have not experienced war will never understand the horrors of war; The memories of the strife reappeared in his mind, and even his vocal cords, which had been treated for pain, became painful again—it was a sharp sword, the tip of which slashed through his throat with a dazzling but cold light, and if it weren't for being pulled backwards by his comrades, he would have died.

The memories that appeared in his mind made Jacob unconsciously touch his throat, which was blocked by the towering collar - although he had survived the last war, he had lost his loud voice; Even after being healed by Hessel, the Lord of the Tower of the Moonlit Night, he was only able to speak; Wanting to ride a horse and sing like the old one, running on the meadows outside Shak is a fantasy that can only exist in the mind.

But Jacob didn't pity himself! After all, he was too lucky compared to his dead comrades; He will never forget the moment when his comrade-in-arms, who had just pulled him out of the abyss of death, was pierced through the chest by a flying arrow—a feeling of sadness and despair slowly crept out of his heart and filled his whole body; At such times, he always wanted to shout loudly, to vent this emotion, just as he used to sing when he was happy, but the hoarse voice was like a barrier, and he could only let out a few low howls like those of a lost dog.

"Take it easy! If you don't want to lose your voice for the next few days, don't torture your throat! ”

Tate patted his friend's shoulder hard, trying to make his friend sober up - over the past ten years, his friend's experience of losing his voice several times due to emotional excitement had already made him understand what he should do; Although it is not good to interrupt his friend's memories, he doesn't want to see his friend yelling for several days because of a momentary emotion, and only relying on sign language and writing to communicate; Especially after Lord Hessel had warned him not to get too excited and yelling if he didn't want to lose his voice permanently, Tate naturally knew what was the right thing to do, even if it wasn't a good one. …,

"Ye Qi is just signed, and there is no clear proposal that there will be a war!" Tate reluctantly tried to change the subject, hoping to distract his friend's attention: "And that guy is just a rising star, and he doesn't deserve your attention, right?" ”

The yelling that was about to blurt out was suppressed in his chest, and Jacob had to take several quick deep breaths to calm the hatred in his chest; After hearing Tate's words, he couldn't help but shake his head slightly and said, "If you haven't gotten along with Ye Qi, you won't know what kind of person Ye Qi is!" Because of Els, I used to observe Ye Qi for quite some time! ”

"Although he is cold, he has a strong perseverance that cannot be ignored, you can't imagine that a teenager who is free from the constraints of his elders can do a clock-like accurate schedule, training, and reading like Ye Qi, even when gathering with friends, there is absolutely no delay!"

And in contrast to that admirable perseverance is his prudence! If it weren't for the fact that Ye Qi was confirmed to be that disciple, and he didn't reject any positive energy, I would really think that a dark wizard had been reborn! ”

"Of course, what reassures me the most is his only kindness; Not cold-blooded enough to ignore anyone's life and death, care about those who are related to him, and help those in need without affecting himself and within his ability; Maybe he won't be a hero to be admired and admired by future generations, but he will definitely be a good husband and a good father! ”

Jacob's analysis of Ye Qi couldn't help but make Tate slap his forehead hard:

"Oh, I should have thought of it a long time ago! When you ignore Els's girl and Ye Qi, you should notice that Ye Qi has passed your test! Otherwise, with your character, it is absolutely impossible for two people to be together! ”

"Of course, Els's father died for me, and I have the responsibility to shoulder my father's responsibility for my comrades!" Jacob's voice was full of unquestioning certainty: "Any immature, ill-intentioned, fanciful existence of Elsie should be disposed of, just like garbage, buried or burned!" ”
