Chapter 91: A Nightmare That Can't Be Shaken Off
On the second floor of the Leyline Corridor, Vince carried a letter from President Darkmoon and walked with Joel on the way to the Steel Shield camp.
When the leyline corridor was first discovered, the joint suppression of Risak by Steel Shield and Darkmoon was well known. But after so many years, Riesak still relied on the huge economic advantage of his headquarters to become the first guild of Caryton, and the grievances of the year were hidden in everyone's hearts, Riesak didn't care, and the other two guilds didn't say much.
But hiding doesn't mean forgetting, at such a critical moment, can a few handwritten letters really make the other two guilds pour out? Vins is just a small person, and he doesn't know what the relationship between the guild's upper echelons is. But as far as he is concerned, because he is a peer, Caryton often has the news of employees of the three major guilds getting into a big fight after they have drunk too much in the tavern.
The friction between the three guilds has not decreased due to the gradual stabilization of business channels, but the relationship between them has become more and more strained - everyone wants to make more money, and everyone has to grab the cake from each other after sharing the cake in the leyline corridor. Maybe Darkmoon and Steel Shield were friends before, but that was only a few decades ago. What the high-level of the steel shield is thinking now, no one can say.
And there's also a very bad point, Rebein's stand-in is working with someone else, what if this person represents the will of Steel Shield or Riesak?
Vins's line of work is not simple, and there are even many dangers. The purpose of opening Tiqi is also to ensure everyone's safety, after all, compared to Riesak, the relationship between Steel Shield and Darkmoon should be a little more relaxed, and with Gauscol here, it shouldn't be a problem for the three of them to protect themselves.
"Vins, you're thinking nonsense again!"
Vince pondered the possibility of a successful delivery when a scolding from Titch brought him back to reality.
Vince looked up, and Gosko was looking at him with a grin, and Titch next to him was a little angry.
"Don't think about it so much, isn't our task to deliver letters? Do your job honestly, the president won't let our efforts go to waste!"
Vince has been thinking about strange things since this morning, and most of the credit for everyone getting this far is true, but at such a critical juncture, Titch doesn't want to see Vins's thinking look at all.
He is a very mobile person, and when he thinks of it, he has to do it. In the leyline corridors full of dangers, a character like Vince's is a source of disaster, not to mention that he will soon have to deliver the letter alone.
Wens smiled bitterly, and hurriedly put on a surrender posture and said, "Okay, okay!! I don't want to, I won't think about it once!
Titch was still not at ease, and said: "There is a three-way intersection ahead, you must not take risks when we are away, you must not forget how many injuries you were injured last night!"
How dare Vins say more, he can only claim yes.
"Hey, young man, it's not a good thing to be too smart~" Goskoll stepped forward and smiled gloatingly. Maria had trusted Vince on the way to the camp before, and Gosko had already knocked over the vinegar jar, and now he finally had an opportunity to laugh at the other party, where would he let it go.
"And you!" Goskoll didn't speak, but as soon as he spoke, Tichy noticed him immediately, and couldn't take all the anger out on Vins, a seriously injured man, on him!
"You know that Joel and Vince are both seriously injured, and you deliberately let the two of them fight against the silvermaned beast! How did you act as a senior?!How old are you still rushing to show off in front of the lady?!"
Gauscol's face instantly turned black like his own uniform, and he whispered: "Actually, I'm not even thirty ......."
Amid Titch's tireless nagging, the group soon reached a three-way intersection.
The moment of separation is just around the corner, and the four of them are estimated to have no time to return to the dark moon after delivering the letter. Joel patted Vins on the shoulder and said with concern: "Steel Shield has a good relationship with us, and no one should make it difficult for you." Also, your injuries were only temporarily stopped by Minaki, and you should make it clear to them that you will stay in the rear this time. ”
Vince shook Joel's hand and said, "You should also be careful, Rebean may not be working with people from our guild. I don't think you move your arms much today, it should be that the hook is used too much, and the fracture on your hand has recurred, right? This time, give the hook to Mr. Goskoll and let him carry you forward, don't feel embarrassed, your body is important. ”
Riesak and Darkmoon are far apart, and in order to deliver letters faster, Joel and the others must use their hooks to advance, as is the many tall chestnut trees in the leyline corridor.
"Your injuries have recurred?!" Titch eagerly stepped forward, his mental strength had been mobilized by Vince early this morning, so he didn't notice that Joel had been reluctantly using his hook along the way.
"Hey!" Gosko interrupted the two impatiently, snatched the hook from Joel's forearm and put it in his hand, and said, "Time is of the essence, you two are on the way, come on, Joel!"
Before Titch could blush properly, Gosko picked up Joel and rushed out!
"Gausskole, will you use a hook...... Ahh
Joel's terrible screams rang out in the wind, and the sound must have hit the tree.
"Gausskol !!"
Filled with rage, Tiki shoots his hook and quickly follows!
This living treasure......
Vince shook his head with a wry smile and walked in his direction.
The three-way junction is an important junction to Darkmoon and Steel Shield, and once you reach this position, you will not get lost, as both roads lead directly to the two camps. Vince kept an eye on the side of the road as he pulled out the Hellflame Knife from behind his back.
Then he raised his free left hand and sped up with his hook.
Because of his petrified skin, although he was injured yesterday in a tragic condition, it was not as broken as Joel's, and he was still able to move freely with his hook and claw. All he needed to pay attention to was to control himself and preserve enough psionic energy, and the fate of the mutants he encountered in the forest was still vivid, and Vince was not very comfortable with his condition.
A brand new soul inscription, the pros and cons of which he wants to consult Master Dada when he goes back. Now he'd rather die than become that crazy look himself. When he encountered the silvermaned beast, he was also worried about his marking, so he didn't use petrified skin to block the spikes.
Using his hook to move some distance, Vince stopped on a chestnut tree in time to regain his strength and psionic energy.
"It's convenient to have this, and you don't have to worry about the monsters on the ground threatening you......" Vins muttered to himself as he rubbed the hook on his forearm.
After waiting for a while, Vince felt that he was almost recovered, and hooked the tree in front of him again, moving rapidly.
"This leyline corridor is full of green chestnut trees, and it seems to be the same everywhere you go......
After walking a long distance, Vins still didn't see where the steel shield camp was, so he had to stop and rest.
There was a hint of uneasiness in his heart. From just now, there were green chestnut trees, green grasses, green shrubs, and everything in the distance was hidden in a thin white mist. Everywhere he went, he felt like he was seeing the same scene, as if he hadn't moved at all. If it weren't for the fact that the road didn't go straight to the point, there would be no fork in the road at all, and Vince would even suspect that he was lost.
After resting for a while, feeling all his feelings recovered, Vince gritted his teeth and continued to use his hook to move forward! He must have been injured and hallucinated in his head!
As the minutes ticked by, the steel shield camp was still nowhere to be seen, but Vince was about to be driven crazy by the constant repetition of the sight in front of him! Except for the constant whistling of the wind in his ears, Vince could not find any other evidence that he was moving forward!
Hell yes!!
How could this be?!!Vins quickly stopped his steps and thought about the current situation. Although he promised Titch to be a ruthless messenger machine, now he is ruthless and afraid that no one will be gone!
Luwyns on the side of the steel shield had asked Gauscol to verify before he set off, and it was true that there was no fork in the road, and he could keep moving forward. And the road is not very long, according to Goskol himself, he can walk for a maximum of twenty minutes. But Vince felt like he was almost twenty minutes away with his hook!
Seeing that the time was approaching eleven o'clock, the letter could not be delivered, and all his efforts to intercept Becrond were in vain! How could this work?!!
A road with only two directions, I have been rushing forward for a long time, but I haven't found a way out.
Vince looked up at the gray-white mist in a daze, and a ridiculous thought suddenly and irrepressibly welled up in his mind.
Could it be ...... I'm in heaven??!!
Other than that, young Vince couldn't think of anything that would explain his loss on the one-way road.
Suddenly, in the corridor where there was silence except for the sound of the wind, there was a sound of blades of grass rubbing against each other.
Even in the relative safety of the tree, Vince did not let his guard down, he quickly found the source of the sound, a bush on the ground!
What else awaits him on this weird road?!
The sound of Suo Suo in the grass gradually increased, and soon, a silver fox with a white body as white as snow came out of it.
Vins looked at the silver fox in disbelief, his facial muscles trembled rapidly, and a cold sweat broke out instantly. He staggered and almost fell off a tree!
The silver fox held a slender sword in its mouth, an azure blade, and a fire-patterned sword head, which was the sword that had been inserted on the ground of the mysterious church!!
The deep words of the soothsayer rang in Vins's ears:
Found you......
