Chapter 67: Moving Forward
Corliss looked at Vins with a shocked face, and said in a trembling voice, "Rebene, they are talents cultivated by Dark Moon, how can they ...... How is it possible to betray us for no reason?!"
Vins was unmoved, and continued, "Mr. Coliss, you should know better than me the attraction of a legendary-level monster like Brond to adventurers, especially a top-level adventurer like Lord Rebein?"
"Killing Becrond, not to mention the temptation of overnight fame, Becrond's corpse alone is enough for Rybein's team to have food and clothing for ten lifetimes. But if they tell the guild the news, it will become a joint hunt of the three major guilds, and it is more likely that the southeast corner of the entire kingdom will be moved, and how much oil and water will their team be able to catch at that time?"
Corliss was a little shaken by Vins's words, but he retorted a little incredulously: "Bernard is a legendary monster that doesn't even have information, how dare their team hunt on their own? β
"Mr. Collis, do you know Rebean well?"
"Uh......" Colliss was momentarily speechless.
"If I were Rebein, I would have to cut off a part of Bernde, even if I tried my best. We only have a word of mouth about Becrond, and at this time, even if it can hurt it, it will be enough for Rebean to blow for a lifetime. As for the style of Lord Rebein, Mr. Colliss may not know much about his clerical work all these years, but I have heard of it. β
"She's the one of the Sword of the Dark Moon, how could you ......"
"Sir, there is no impermeable wall in this world, and as long as she lives, there will always be some rumors. β
"That's how you know the name Rebein?" Corliss suddenly felt a little bad in his heart when he faced Rebean in the Vins Cave.
"Yes. Vince nodded, and then turned to look at Joel, "Joel usually wants to pursue the so-called quality of life, so he rarely eats in the restaurant inside the Dark Moon, and I am frugal, but I heard a lot of news about the inside of the Dark Moon during the meal. According to those who are talkative, Lord Rebean is a bloodthirsty man inside the Sword of the Dark Moon, with a greater desire to kill than anyone else. In other words, she's the craziest person in all of Dark Moon. It shouldn't be surprising that such a person made the decision to hunt Becrond, right?"
Crazy, arrogant, and murder-loving Rebean made such a decision, there really was no problem, everything was so reasonable. Vince still looked at the three of them with a calm look, waiting for their answers, not at all ashamed of his lies one after another.
If these lies save them, then it is all worth it. It's shameful to cheat on his partners, but Vins doesn't want to hear their painful wails anymore.
"This ...... It's unlikely, isn't it?" The person who just saved himself has now become a traitor in the blink of an eye, who can accept this kind of thing instantly?
"This is the only explanation I can come up with for their lies," Vince said calmly. β
Joel stared at Vins's dark pupils, which had become deep at some point, and remained silent. Even if Vince said so, he still didn't want to believe that Rebean was a traitor.
After a moment of shock, Corliss had calmed down now. His eyelids drooped, and his fingers began to tap the damp bark of the rain-soaked tree again.
He pondered Wens's words.
The three of them were silent again, and Wence's heart was inevitably a little anxious. He recalled Bernonde's massive body, and he really couldn't think of any chance of surviving after the other party came.
"Time is running out, folks. If we waste any more time here, it will only turn into a breakfast in BΓ©crond. β
Joel's expression was relieved, as if he was about to make a decision, but Titch on the side suddenly stopped him.
She stared into Vins's eyes and asked slowly, "Vins, there's one more question." Since their goal is Becrond, why waste time trying to save us?"
Seeing that the three of them were about to follow him, and Titch inexplicably intervened, Wins felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, as if it was so unrealistic and absurd to save each other in this endless reincarnation. Every time I wake up, it seems that the opportunity is right in front of me, but I can never grasp it or touch it.
Vince's words were strong enough, but now that Titch still had an opinion, Joel respected the opinions of everyone in the team and paused for a moment, standing still and waiting for Vince's reply.
Vince collected his frustration and tried to make his voice as calm and powerful as possible: "First of all, let's confirm one thing, I can't be sure if Rebean and the others are going to hunt Becrond or not, all the thoughts so far are just conjectures. If in the end of the trouble, Rebean is innocent, then I have nothing to say. The main reason why we are heading to the leyline corridor now is the roar we heard underground, there are not many monsters that can move underground, and even fewer are still active on such a rainy day. This kind of weird monster, combined with the inexplicable lies of Rebein, will inevitably make people suspicious. β
After a pause, Vince continued: "As for why they saved us, if you ask me this question, my answer can only be that I don't know. Maybe it's because Vikz's Abyss of Void is affecting Bernonde's state, maybe Ikar is some great person, or maybe they're coming for Mr. Corlis, it's just a simple flattery. There are a lot of possibilities, but what does it matter? Shouldn't we go to the leyline corridor to confirm the situation? Which is more important, personal honor or the lives of our compatriots in the Demon Mist Forest?"
"Three, I'm not a scheming villain, if I can solve the problem myself, I'll be alone in the leyline corridor now. But I'm not enough, I'm just a small hunting assistant with a soft talk, and when I am met by my colleagues in the leyline corridor, I will only be arrested and executed as a deserter, so I need you. β
Wince gave him a deep look at Colliss and continued, "Only Mr. Collis's fame can make our words valued. Only with the cooperation of the two of you, Joel and Titch, will we be able to penetrate deep into the leyline corridor and find the location of the main army. Three, we are a team, and all of us are indispensable. If I really say it, then we are responsible for everyone's lives now!Guys, there is really no time, Becrond is getting closer and closer......"
We're in charge!
Vince's words hit the hearts of the three of them hard, and all three of them were a little moved. Joel looked at the two beside him, Collis was already floating in the air, and Titch was wiping the rain from his hooks.
After a brief disagreement, the team finally got back on track, and Joel felt a little relieved in his heart, and said with a bold voice: "Let's go! Everyone, today's history of Carryton will be rewritten because of us!!"
......
The leyline corridor is located in the middle of the now explored range of the Demon Mist Forest, that is, on the path of Rissac's advance. Vins and his team went all the way deep into the Demon Mist Forest, and they had already crossed the leyline corridor, and now they could only go back.
The four of them briefly discussed it as they marched, and finally agreed to turn to the path of the Riesak Guild first, and then return to the leyline corridor. After all, Risak is the most powerful guild among the three guilds, and the area that has been cleared is definitely a little cleaner than Darkmoon's, and the four of them can travel faster.
Vins looked worried all the way, and when he met Becrond, they had walked for a long time in the Demonic Mist Forest, and they only encountered Becrond until the morning. Although it was still half past eight, and there was probably more than an hour before the morning, he had entered the leyline corridor, and knew that the road inside was even more difficult to walk, and the monsters were also very ferocious.
And this time, they didn't have three thousand partners.
Can we rush to the leyline corridor before Bernrod climbs out of the ground and deliver this crucial news? Not only Vins, but even the other three are frowning, the situation is indeed not optimistic.
The gray fog in the sky was getting thicker and thicker, but fortunately, the four of them were still familiar with the terrain near the leyline corridor, and they could barely find the right direction. Colis flew in the air, and suddenly said, "Shall we find two more people? What if we can't reach the depths of the leyline corridor?" It is said that the Darkhorn Cat on the second floor of the leyline corridor has been almost cleared, and they are already preparing to go to the third layer. With the strength of the four of us, it is too difficult to penetrate the third layer. β
Joel retorted, a little uneasily, "But without your proof, Mr. Corlis, how are they going to trust the President, even if we get them?" I think they are more likely to be arrested as insane." β
Collis was stunned, since Vince reasoned and came to the conclusion that Rebean had betrayed, his mind was indeed not as calm as it seemed.
"There is no need, Mr. Collis. Vins also objected, "Not to mention how difficult it is to convince a team of people to run errands for us, too many people enter the leyline corridor and the target is too big, and it is more troublesome to act." Our mission is to sneak all the way until we find the Elder, not to clean up the vein corridors of the veins. β
Collis sighed and said a little frustratedly, "Then forget it." I'm just worried that if we don't get the news out because of our weakness and kill everyone in the forest, it will really ...... It's a shame. β
