Chapter 69: Grouping
The three of them were still underqualified and lacked knowledge, so they naturally did not know much about the small tricks that were passed down among these adventurers. And although Colis has been dealing with these adventurers for half his life, he has never cared much about these things that have nothing to do with him.
At present, the responsibility of sending information is so great, and it can only succeed and not fail, and Colliss naturally does not dare to entrust the fate of the entire Carryton to such a thing that he is not sure of. So he'd rather waste a little time now than find an ice ladder to enter the leyline corridor safely.
Perhaps due to the high magma layer, there are few trees on the surface near the leyline corridor, and the few trees that are also stunted and sick. The hook that the three of Vins could rely on the most was useless here, and they could only run on the ground in search of the ice ladder.
The four of them were about to disperse, but Joel suddenly stopped him, "Wait a minute! There is usually no danger near the leyline corridor, but now that the monsters are rioting collectively, it is difficult to say whether there are any fish that have slipped through the net. We are in a group of two, and we have a chance to save our lives when we meet monsters! And we are two groups of people, and we are searching in exactly two directions!"
Corliss hesitated, he wanted to cross the leyline corridor and search for a farther location, leaving the closer ones to Joel and them. A free-moving Fengxing is priceless in such a situation, and he alone may be more useful than the three of Joel combined, but Joel is not wrong when he says that he does pose a threat to the safety of the team when he acts alone. Joel and Vince are both injured, Titch doesn't have the strength to face the monsters head-on, and Colliss is the only player in good shape right now.
"Just as Joel says. Vince was anxious to send the news, not wanting to pester, and as soon as Joel finished speaking, he immediately echoed it.
Colis pondered for a moment, and finally nodded in agreement: "It's okay, after all, entering the leyline corridor will only be more dangerous, let's work in pairs to be more stable." ”
Titch didn't speak, she stayed on Joel's side, looking at Joel with a trusting gaze.
The four of them agreed, and after some deliberation, they immediately decided on a reasonable group: Wins and Joel in one group, and Collis and Titch in one group.
In the thick fog, it is difficult for the four of them to reunite once they are separated. But fortunately, with Colis's identity, even if it is not his guild's ice ladder, there should be no problem if he wants to rub into it. And Vinsjor's group has Yerevan's Dark Moon Gold Coins, although it is not as easy as Colis's identity, but it should not be a big problem to get in.
As the minutes passed, the matter of sending information was urgent.
"See you in the cloister. ”
Coris saluted to the two young men who were about to leave, this time after they separated, they were going deep into the leyline corridor, although they didn't want to admit it, but the four of them were indeed facing a situation of nine deaths and one life.
Joel returned the salute and said calmly, "See you in the cloister." ”
It could be life and death at the moment, and Joel didn't want to make the atmosphere too heavy, he tried to make himself look like he was in the chest.
Titch gave Joel a deep look, trying his best to hide the emotions that were a little turbulent in his heart.
"Let's go. Vince clapped his hands and ran to the right first. Joel's gaze skimmed over Titch's delicate face, and there was a faint pain in his heart, but he didn't say anything more, and immediately followed Vins.
The figures of the two quickly disappeared into the thick fog, and Colliss straightened his somewhat wrinkled clothes and said, "Let's go too, time is running out." ”
"Okay. Tiki's rustling voice replied briefly, and the two of them quickly ran to the left.
......
It has been a long time since the four of them set out from the cave in the early morning, but the fog that has been filling the air since the early morning has not diminished in the slightest.
Vince and Joel made their way along the outer edge of the crater, carefully searching for the location of the ice ladder. Although Vince was very anxious, the two of them who had lost their hooks no longer had any means to move at high speed, so they could only run for a while and rest for a while.
"Did Caryton ever have that much fog?"
As the two walked slowly and regained their strength, Joel felt that the atmosphere was a little too heavy, so he casually found a topic to talk to Vins.
Vince is a warrior, but he has just been rescued from the brink of death, and he is no more physically fit than Joel. Just now, even he couldn't support it one step ahead of Joel, and asked for a break.
"Such a big fog?" Vince was stunned by Joel's question, thought for a moment, and replied a little uncertainly, "It should be...... Yes. These months are rainy in Caryton, and foggy days are common. I can still remember the many times we went out hunting on foggy days and encountered a lot of dangers. The worst time seems to be when we passed a pine tree, and a penal-clawed leopard jumped down from it!"
Joel was mentioned by Vins and remembered the memories shared by the three of them. He gave a rare smile and said, "Don't you say I forgot, the clawed leopard landed right next to the guest, and almost swallowed his head! The guest was so frightened that he didn't dare to go any deeper, and we went back less than an hour after we left Cariton." ”
Joel has good intentions, and Wins is not unkind. In addition, he is now physically exhausted, and he can only stand and do it in a hurry. So he sorted out his mood and joked with a smile: "It was indeed the fastest commission we ever completed, if only every guest was as generous as he was." ”
Joel smiled and said with a sigh: "I don't know if those guests will come to Carryton again after this incident." I miss the old days now, and although I don't make much money, it's not bad that the three of us work together and take occasional adventures. ”
After Vince regained a little strength, he kept striding ahead. After Joel finished speaking, Vince's pace suddenly slowed down a little, and he seemed to remember something from his memory.
But he never looked back, and kept moving forward, observing, looking for the location of the ice ladder. Joel's gaze looked at the back of the young man in front of him with a complicated gaze.
I don't know when Wins has grown from a teenager to a resolute, reliable man.
Joel didn't know what to say for a while, he looked aimlessly at the slowly flowing misty white fog, and suddenly said casually: "With such a big fog, there should be a heavy rain after today......
"It's raining hard enough right now. Without looking back, Vins said this, and immediately waved his arms and ran into the white mist.
Joel's heart suddenly swelled up with confusion, but the sound of Vins's footsteps was getting farther and farther away in the sound of the drizzling rain, and there was no time left for him to be in a daze, so he hurriedly followed Vins and chased after him.
......
"Which guild are you from?"
The team with the wind was obviously more efficient, and while Vince and Joel were still groping forward, Collis and Titch had already found the location of the ice ladder, and Collis was asking the staff on duty about the ice ladder.
Less than three meters away from the edge of the pit, a round-faced man in civilian clothes sat casually in the airtight duty room, observing Corris and Titch through the glass with two narrow eyes: "I'm Moore, the employee of the Darkmoon, is there anything wrong with the two of you?"
Collis and Titch were relieved to hear the man who called himself Moore answer, and they looked at each other.
Corliss turned to Moore and said solemnly, "Moore employees, please raise the ice ladder and let the two of us go down." I'm Colis, the vice president of the Darkmoon Guild, and I have an urgent need to find the elder. ”
"Vice President Corlis?" Moore's brows suddenly furrowed, and he straightened up and asked, "Why haven't I heard of this person?"
Titch hurriedly explained beside him: "Vice President Colis is mainly responsible for clerical work in the guild, and the focus of your work is in the leyline corridor, so it's normal that you haven't heard of it. And you see, we're all wearing the uniforms of the Darkmoon Guild. ”
Moore's eyebrows were still tightened, and he shook his head and said, "That doesn't mean anything, it's not difficult to clean up the monsters that have rioted in the Demon Mist Forest recently, and it's not difficult to pick up two Dark Moon uniforms on the corpses." Let's tell you the truth, there has been an endless stream of people who want to escape to the leyline corridor in the past two days, if you have this idea, please go home as soon as possible. ”
If the other party really thought that he was a deserter, it would never be possible to be so polite in his words, and he was still hesitating in his heart! Thinking about this, Collis's heart relaxed a lot, as long as he didn't refuse strictly, he was sure to convince the other party!
Darkmoon's vice president is naturally different from a normal hunting assistant uniform, but that is limited to ordinary work uniforms. And the hunting uniforms of the two, in order to reflect the equal treatment, the whole guild is exactly the same - in other words, the hunting uniforms of Dark Moon are of very high quality.
"Look at this. Collis was not impatient, now was the time when he needed to be calm the most, he reached into the pocket of his shirt, felt for a long time, and found a card.
"My identification, if you don't believe me, you can check it. Colliss taped the card to the glass, revealing the front for Moore to see.
Titch glanced at Collis's card with envy, it was a card that seemed to be pure gold, the front of which Tiki couldn't see, but the back was a crescent moon surrounded by four green vines.
Darkmoon's identification, an item that can only be owned by a regular employee who has been promoted, and the three of Tiqi are still some way away from this card.
The fog was thick, but Moore could clearly see every word on his ID. Tiki could clearly see through the glass that Moore's expression had shifted from serious to surprised, and then from surprised to funny, and his two pupils slowly began to dilate.
"Climb the ice ladder!"
Corlis's words gradually became tinged with a hint of anger, now is the right time to gain the initiative, he chooses to take the initiative!
