91. Sean's speculation
At night, there was silence around the camp.
Generally speaking, one of the people on duty at night must be Luo, if nothing else, because of his excellent assassination skills and reconnaissance skills. Therefore, his vigilance is naturally the strongest among all of them, and under normal circumstances, almost no one can sneak into the vicinity of the camp without his perception.
The reason why I say normal is because Luo has not met anyone more powerful.
For example, Sean.
Today's night watch is Luo and Sean.
The former is responsible for the first half of the night, and the latter is responsible for the second half of the night.
It was supposed to be a tent for Sean and the big man, but for some reason, it became a tent for the big man and Phil, and a tent for Sean and Rowe.
At this moment, Sean was coming out of the tent, and after a brief wash, he sat down next to the fire to keep warm.
Before he could rest, he sat across from Sean, but the two of them didn't speak. If someone else were here, he would definitely feel embarrassed, but Sean didn't take Luo's matter seriously at all, so he naturally wouldn't feel embarrassed. Whether Law was going to sit here or what he was going to do, Sean didn't bother with it, and of course he didn't mind helping some people if they wanted to die on their own.
Perhaps because of the weird atmosphere, Luo quickly got up and left.
Sean was alone by the fire in the camp.
He sat here for a few moments before he stood up and moved a little.
In the days when he used to be a mercenary, he was often responsible for keeping vigils, but since he came to the Lane Kingdom, he has never kept vigil again. At this time, it was only for a short time. Sean felt a little stiff in his body, and the whole person looked very unaccustomed. I had to stand up and move my body.
"Is that interesting?" After a few sideways spins. Sean spoke suddenly.
But even though he was talking, he still didn't stop moving his body.
"Do you really think I don't feel it?" Sean straightened up, and then without looking back, he pointed out the position behind the Black Monarch.
It was obviously just darkness there, but with the swiftness of the Black King's point, there was a sudden slight ripple in the air, and then Luo's figure gradually emerged from it. It's just that at this moment, his face was slightly red, but it was not shy but obviously a little angry, and his eyes looking at Sean were also full of anger.
"You should be rejoicing. If it weren't for the unique aura on your body, you would be a corpse by now. Sean sneered and withdrew the Black Monarch, then sat down on the spot, obviously too lazy to pay attention to Luo.
He knew what kind of mentality Luo was.
When he and Yun returned to camp in the evening, the attitude of the rest of the team towards him changed subtly, obviously with some doubts about his identity. After all, they have dealt with the Ghost Eye Blade and the Thunder Dragon Squad, and they also know very well what the strength of the other party is, and when Sean was assassinated at the beginning, they thought it was someone sent by the Ghost Eye Blade. So it's the most appropriate thing to let Luo solve the other party.
But the result was that the other party's strength was stronger than Luo, which surprised everyone. Because the Ghost Eye Blade will never have such strength, then there is only one result: the other party is coming for Sean. In connection with the big man before, Sean was very strong, according to their intuitive perception of the big man. Sean's strength is definitely not as simple as it appears on the surface, so this shows that the killer on the other side is coming for Sean.
In this way, Sean's purpose is very debatable.
If it weren't for the clouds that forcibly suppressed it at night. I'm afraid that Sean will be forced to confess at that time. However, even though this matter was forcibly suppressed by Yun with his own captain's power, the estrangement has already arisen. It is obviously impossible to restore the tacit understanding as before.
And Luo jumped out to test it at this time, which was naturally the situation that Sean expected.
"It seems. You do possess a strong sense of perception. Luo calmed the blood surging in his heart, and said in a cold voice, "I don't care who you are, but if you have any purpose......
"Didn't you invite me to join?" Sean smiled and sneered mercilessly, "Don't you think it's ridiculous to say that I have some purpose now?" …… Besides, what qualifications does an apprentice assassin defector have to say what purpose I have here? ”
Luo's pupils shrank suddenly.
The air around him seemed to tremble.
But all the breath could not escape at all, but seemed to be bound by some strange power.
Field!
Luo looked around for a moment, and suddenly had a realization: "It turns out that from the beginning, I have stepped into your realm...... No, it's not the domain. But it's not like a field, it's supposed to be a half-field, right? You're already impacting the Sanctuary realm, no wonder you didn't know it when I first hid my breath, and you didn't realize it until I approached you, it seems that this is your real hole card. ”
Sean still smiled and didn't speak.
Zorro's identity has already been questioned, so Sean doesn't mind showing a little more of a stronger symbol of strength. It doesn't need much, just a little stronger than the current Zorro, and it is enough to give everyone a strength that he can easily defeat Anna and dodge assassination, and he doesn't even need to think about excuses, because these guys who are overly brain-making will automatically round up all the flaws for him.
The only thing Sean needs to do is to show that he is a swordsman who is above everyone else, but has some hardships and has to hide something.
"Okay, just like Yun said, who doesn't have some secrets." Sean picked up a twig, then flicked the bonfire to make it burn a little stronger, and then boiled the soup left over from the night, "I don't care if you're a double agent, or if you betrayed the Assassin League for something, and I don't want to know how an apprentice-level assassin survived until now, as long as you don't come to me for trouble, then it's okay to say anything." ”
"What if I'm going to trouble you?" Luo sneered.
"You can try it." Sean shrugged his shoulders indifferently, "I can guarantee you'll die soon." …… Even. I don't need to do it myself. ”
Hearing Sean's words, Law's face looked very ugly.
He knows it well. Someone like Sean, who knew his true identity, was more than capable of contacting the Assassin League. For traitors within the Union. The Order has never shown mercy, and it was only by a coincidence that he managed to fake his own death and evade the Order's purge. So once his identity was revealed, Luo didn't dare to imagine what the fate would be, it was because of this that he wanted to go back there to live in seclusion after hearing that the nest of the Northern Continent of Deaththorn had been destroyed.
No one wants to be a killer who never sees the light of day for the rest of their lives.
"How did you find me?" Luo's voice was a little dry.
"When you lurked around me just now, you resembled the Creed Assassin I dealt with before." Sean spooned himself a bowl of soup and tasted it beautifully, but the fly in the ointment was that the pieces of meat in the soup had already been eaten by dinner. "It's the same method, and it would be strange if I were to admit it wrong. …… So I said, I'm not interested in your past, as long as you don't come to me for trouble. Just like Yun said, who doesn't have some secrets. ”
Law took a deep breath and finally put away his hostility towards Sean.
He didn't say anything more, but slowly retreated, only turning back to the tent after leaving what he thought was Sean's "realm range". But you can imagine it. Luo's mood is absolutely uncalm, and if he wants to sleep quietly, it is estimated that it is impossible.
But these things, Sean didn't pay attention to the thoughts.
He felt more and more that this team of bounty hunters was too weird. Even with the news that the Demon Eye Blade had discovered the ruins first, there was a deep suspicion. He always felt that the appearance of this underground mausoleum. It seems to be a deliberate act, and it is clear that the matter of this mausoleum is no longer limited to the black market of Black Point. Even Elizabeth and the Marquis of Flores had heard of it, and they all converged on this side.
It's a pity. There are still too few clues, and Sean has never heard of anything like this ever happened in the kingdom of Lane in the game.
On the contrary, it was the news about the underground mausoleum, and Sean had several guesses.
"Dad, can I speak?" Just as Sean was pondering, the Black King on the side finally spoke in a low voice.
Although he had tried his best to imitate the sound of a human whispering, it was clear that controlling the volume was a challenge for the Black King. However, now that there is Sean's domain suppression, the surrounding situation is better, at least it will not be so obvious.
"You'd better turn on 'Isolation.'" Sean glanced at the Black King, and then said helplessly.
Soon, a space completely detached from the material world was directly "cut" by the Black King. From the outside, this realm has not changed, but in fact, this space is completely out of this world, and if someone rushes to cross it, then the only result is that the body is cut in two.
"Whew, suffocate me!" Finally able to speak, the Black King shouted cheerfully, "I haven't been able to speak for days. ”
Looking at the Black King's excited face, Sean was helpless.
"Okay, okay, let's let you talk, and continue to pretend to be dumb for a while." Sean sighed, he really didn't have much to do about the Black King, he could only talk to him about the conditions, but fortunately, after all, it was a bloodline artifact, and he could more or less negotiate it as the lord of the bloodline.
"Dad, how many more days do I have to pretend to be dumb?" The Black King muttered with some dissatisfaction.
It's better to pretend to be dumb for life. - Sean wanted to say that, but he knew that if he did, the Black King would definitely not do it.
"Don't do it!" The Black King immediately shouted, "What do you mean to be dumb all your life! Don't do it, don't do it, don't do it! ”
If the Black King had hands and feet, he would have been rolling all over the floor.
"Didn't I say it?" Sean covered his forehead, he forgot that the Black King and him were in a bloodline relationship, as long as there are some things in his heart and they are about the Black King, this guy can feel it for the first time, "Okay, okay, if you are wronged, you will pretend to be dumb for a few days, and when the matter of the underground mausoleum is explored, I will let you talk enough, okay." ”
"Really?" The Black King is a bit like a child.
"Yes, yes." Sean said angrily.
"Actually, Dad, I don't understand, why are you playing this game with these people?" The Black King was silent for a moment before he asked, "With your strength, Dad, there shouldn't be anyone in Ryan who can stop you now, right?" And...... Aren't we here to save that Asuna? By the way, Dad, is Asuna a mother? I think you're nervous. ”
"Can you not think it's your mom from everyone?" Sean knew that every time he chatted with the Black King, he would be very tired, "Lane's local strength, I can generally walk sideways, but according to the information we inquired about from Duke Roald before, Grayne's subordinates also hide a legendary powerhouse, and before the other party is exposed, of course I can not reveal my identity without revealing it." And ......"
"And what?" Hearing Sean say two words, he was silent, and the Black King, who had waited for a long time and didn't hear the following, couldn't hold back, "Dad, you can make it clear." ”
"And I'm very skeptical about this mausoleum." Sean frowned and said, "And then there's the woman named Yun, my intuition tells me that this woman is not simple, and I want to know what kind of situation she is." ”
"Ah, speaking of this woman, Dad, you have to be careful." The Black King seemed to remember something, and suddenly spoke, "There is a protective force in this woman's body, and I don't dare to probe it rashly, otherwise she will find out about my existence." ”
"Shelter Force?" Sean was stunned for a moment, "Is it strong?" ”
"Well, I don't know, I don't dare to probe rashly." The Black King thought for a moment, "Anyway, this woman is very strange, I'm not talking about her strength, I'm talking about the smell of her." Not...... It's not like a lot of people I've smelled. ”
"It's different...... Sean reached out and rubbed his chin with a thoughtful look, "Could it be ...... She's not human? If she's not human, then ...... People of the underground race? If that's the case, it can explain why she has the power to protect herself, apparently to prevent her identity from being exposed. And if you speculate based on this, then her relationship with Luo is normal...... She should have helped Luo, so Luo owed her a lot of favors, and this time she came to repay the favors. ”
"So what about it...... What is it about that underground mausoleum that is worth such a risk on the other side? And speaking of which, why do so many people of the underground race appear in the territory of the Ryan Kingdom? The previous vampires, as well as the Rottikabas...... Could it all have something to do with the Abyssal Path in the Fortress? (To be continued.) )
