(You really think of yourself as your own home!) Joel was a little speechless, the two children were lucky to have met him, otherwise they would have been pulled and sold.

Joel flicked the whip again, allowing the two old horses to continue pulling the carriage forward.

"I said, why did you two girls come here? Judging by the direction you came from, you must have come from the north, right? Joel asked backwards.

"Oh, uncle, I'm tired, I don't want to answer, just call me when I get to the place, please~!" After Yanna finished speaking, she really snored.

Joel looked at the sleeping Jenna with caring eyes, and then turned to look at another tall girl who seemed to be more reliable.

"Sorry, no comment." With a cold expression and a cold tone, this cold and glamorous girl ignored Joel after speaking.

Seeing this, Joel could only turn around and continue driving. It's just that two girls full of mysteries still make some of the merchants who think they have seen a lot of the market.

(Well, from the north, dressed in shabby clothes, as if fleeing...) Well, if it's north, there's there. The cities of Dorpot and Simaika! Joel's heart lit up, yes, it must be a refugee who escaped from the city when the city was broken! Before the fall of Axe Pass, many refugees returned south one after another, and these two were good, but they were two months late. Must have suffered a lot, Joel sighed secretly.

Without saying a word all the way, the dilapidated carriage pulled by the old man drove quietly to the pass.

At this moment, several black-robed monsters were carefully searching for traces in the wasteland more than a hundred miles away. These people are followers of the Serpent of the End, the lowest members of the sect.

After several people searched carefully, they soon found clues.

"Guys, I've found it!"

"I've got that too!" "Me too!"

Seeing this, the leader shouted, "Come here!" Gather up! Hurry up, hurry up! ”

Once the crowd had gathered, they pieced together the wreckage they had found, and the leader of the believers squinted at it, unable to put it together because the body was so broken and so many pieces had been lost. After a few seconds of silence, he stretched out his twisted and deformed right hand, and then, a tentacle reached out from his palm. As the tentacle approached the remains, it opened its mouth and bit down on a piece of meat, then swallowed it without chewing.

The believer withdrew his right hand, his eyes closed, and he did not speak for tens of seconds. A believer with four eyes on the side was a little anxious, and said, "Hansen! How's it going?! We don't have time to waste here! The sun has set in the west! The predators of the wasteland are coming here to feed! If you don't want to deal with a large swarm of scavenging wolves or even split-claw lions on the way back to the colony, let us know the results now! Fast! ”

"Shut up, Foel!" The believer named Hansen opened his eyes and glared at the other party fiercely, and then he said in a deep voice, "This is indeed Lord Jacques, I can be sure of this. ”

"How so! He's dead?! Our Lord is above! Lord Jacques, who has received such a powerful divine grace, would actually die in this wasteland! How are we going to explain to Kamimine!? Felle's eyes widened and he lamented.

"What does this have to do with us~! Master Jacques's style of action has always been known to Shangfeng, and has always acquiesced in his actions. Since it was his own solo reconnaissance operation, it had nothing to do with our subordinates who stayed at the base to do chores. A black-robed believer with his face completely covered, with a little resentment, responded.

"Hmph~! Rissa! No matter how unhappy you may be with Master Jacques, he's still our immediate boss! We have sworn allegiance to God before Him! Disrespect to Him is disrespect to God! Hansen reprimanded.

"Hahahaha~! Allegiance? Which of us did he personally woo him into the church? You and me! And them! Aren't they all transferred from other groups to this 'lone wolf' men?! "Resa erupted in resentment, and countless small insects flew around her.

Indeed, these unfortunate people were ostracized, suppressed, discriminated against, and finally transferred to Jacques's subordinates, and Jacques's approach doomed these people to have no merit.

The men were silent, and Foel looked around at them, then turned around, his eyes widened, and a faint purple glow emanated from his eyes, and his four eyes continued to scan the surroundings.

"What are you doing?!" Hansen looked at him in surprise and wondered, "We have completed our mission and found Master Jacques, weren't you still in a hurry to return to your kennel just now?!" ”

"Shut up, Hansen!" Ferel ignored the ridicule of his colleagues, and said while probing: "No matter how much you dislike Lord Jacques, you must inherit it, his ability, and the achievements he has achieved because of it, he is one of the people who are concerned by the superiors, even if we escape the joint punishment, we will inevitably face investigation and questioning from the superiors, if we don't know anything at that time, what consequences will an incompetent impression bring us, you should know very well in your hearts!" ”

Hansen and the rest of the believers deliberated softly, and finally they all nodded, and each headed in a different direction, probing carefully.

Several believers were busy for dozens of minutes, the sun was already setting in the west, and even a shadow of the demon moon could be seen in the distance. This time it was Hansen's turn to be anxious, and he shouted, "Isn't it okay?" In thirty minutes at most, the Demon Moon will rise, and it will be dangerous to disperse at that time! ”

"Shut up! Hansen! Do you want to lure the wolves?! Hearing the shout, Felle was the first to return to the meeting point, and he took a rag in his hand and handed it to Hansen, "Check this to see if it belongs to Master Jacques." ”

Hansen stretched out his left hand, a toothed tongue wrapped around his arm, and writhed, licking the rag a few times before retracting.

Hansen nodded, affirming, "It's Lord Jacques, where did you find it?" ”

"Eighty meters away, this rag was dragged and torn on the ground, and if I guessed correctly, Master Jacques was hit hard at the time, leaving this piece of cloth behind when he fell to the ground and slid down."

"Hit hard? How can it be?! Master Jacques, who has the blessing of our Lord, can bend the world, and it is difficult for attacks from reality to hit him! ”

"That's for the average person, the scratch on the ground is more than thirty meters, and this blow must be powerful. An enemy with such strength is at least a senior elite level, and maybe he is still a master. ”

"Master?!" Hansen exclaimed in a low voice, "But even if you are a master, it will be very difficult to kill Master Jacques, after all, he still has a second blessing, hmm, could it be that he was attacked and failed to use the 'Twisted Shadow'?" ”

"No," said Lisa, who also returned to the meeting point, holding up the torn robe in his hand and showing it to the two of them, "This is the adult's shirt, which was torn from the inside. The Lord must have used his blessing, but even so, he died. ”

Hansen was completely shocked, "How is this possible!?" In that case, even if Lord Jacques was defeated, he could escape calmly, how could he die so completely! ”

"And that's not all," a severely hunchbacked believer quickly crawled to the crowd, multiple tentacles on his back supporting a piece of his eaten body.

He put the stump on the ground, pointed it with his tentacles, and said, "I found this, this should be the lower half of Lord Jacques, well, despite the destruction of the beasts, but you see, the waist here is not cut off, but Lord Jacques took the initiative to separate." He must have used the shapeshifting ability of the Shadow State. ”

"Transfiguration? Is Master Jacques planning to flee or attack? Ge Wei? "It's not something I can see."

By the time they were deliberating, the sun had completely receded into the horizon, and the remnants of light were gradually dissipating. Seeing that everyone had already returned to their positions, Lisa said: "Too much time has passed, the environment is also bad, and there are wild beasts infested here, I think today's investigation can be stopped, the demon moon has appeared, and the beasts have begun to be active, so return to the altar immediately." ”

The believers immediately wrapped up the remains they had found and set out on their way home.

At this time, Old Joel's carriage also arrived at the Axe Pass, and turned around and shouted: "The Axe Pass has arrived, two of you~!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the girl who had been sleeping one by one get up and jump out of the carriage with her companions. The two bowed to Joel together, thanked them, and ran to the gate together.

The soldiers at the pass looked at the two girls in confusion, and after a short question, one of them asked his colleagues to look at the two of them, and then turned back to report to his boss. Seeing this scene, Old Joel couldn't help but sigh, and stepped forward to help: "Ladies and gentlemen, these two children were picked up by me on the road, and they are not bad people. ”

"Joel, is that you?" One of the bearded soldiers recognized him and said with a smile: "Yo ho, what's the matter? The firewood business is not good, and you have changed your career to become a human trafficker? ”

"Shut up, Hawley, that's how you are, you can't get married!" Joel gave the soldier a blank look.

"He can't get married because he gambles!" Hearing this, Joel smiled and looked behind the soldier, a non-commissioned officer in Seiko armor, led by the soldier, quickly approached the pass.

"Johansen, ah, you're on duty." Joel ran up and greeted the other party, although the two were not much older, the other party was indeed the cousin of old Joel.

The middle-aged non-commissioned officer named Johansen did not take care of his flattering cousin, he looked at the two young girls who had been stopped, looked carefully, pulled old Joel aside, and said in a deep voice:

"How much do you owe someone else? Do this kind of thing, please?! ”

"My good nephew~I'm your uncle~! How can you doubt that I am going to do such a dirty thing?! ”

"Then tell me how you met these two girls! I don't believe you ran into it halfway through! ”

Old Joel had a bitter face, his reputation was worthless, and it was not loud, but seeing that one of them didn't do well today, he would lose his life and become a human trafficker. He hurriedly told how he met the two girls today, as well as his guess about their origins.
