Chapter 161: Warning

Plotting against an intelligence merchant involves hiding certain lethal means that can be activated into his body without his knowledge. Cheese could do the same, but it would be too expensive and there would be no incentive for the mage to do it. A person who is capable of such a thing really can't afford to spend so much effort and use such troublesome means to deal with an intelligence businessman, and if he really wants him to shut up and kill him directly, why use such inefficient and cruel methods?

Unless, this is not for a single individual. Cheese looked down in contemplation, and he felt that the inference was quite reasonable. But if the worm is not just directed at a certain person, how exactly is it transmitted, how is it triggered, and how can the worm smell of a worm in a worm mutated from a human organ? These are questions he can make innumerable inferences, but none of them can hold water. There is not enough information, although they now have a small stronghold, but there is not enough information about what is going on in this tribe.

"You two go to sleep first, it's hard to rest in a roofed place, it's more important to recover your strength. The cat elf put away his usual banter, and said to Atta and Nuisa, now that the grey robe was in a state of contemplation, waiting for Lothar and their return and the task of keeping vigil was consciously taken over by him.

Kailas was right about something, the team had indeed spent too much time in the wilderness, and the temptation to wear dry clothes and warm and relatively soft beds after washing their bodies was hard for everyone in the team to resist. So despite their worries, the two ladies fell asleep quickly after going to bed. They were so tired. Of course, they are not the only ones who are tired, in terms of physical strength alone, Atta's physical strength and various mental conditions are still above Batu and even Lothar. If they were all so tired, then the situation of the others could be imagined.

"If there's anything to say tomorrow, I need to rest now. These were the Count's first words as he entered the door, and the last words he said before he fainted and fell into a deep sleep. Batu's situation was similar to that of Lothar, burning corpses in the grassland at night, the energy consumed by this event was far from what could be accumulated after a short rest, and his energy was already overdrawn.

It didn't take much to save the whole yurt with only the mage and the cat goblin, and the small oil lamp that burned quietly in the corner. Kailas's figure was projected onto the walls of the yurt in the light, like a monster with teeth and claws. But the monster was not happy now, his ears were lowered, his beard was tilted downward, and his tail fell to the ground haphazardly, looking listless.

"This is a warning. The cat fairy suddenly spoke, and he said this to the cheese, and although the mage did not move his body, his eyes did drift over. Paying attention to the rest of the room, and after everyone was having no trouble breathing, Kailas continued, "Someone wants us, or you, to stop going any further into here. ”

Cheese nodded, he agreed with Kailas, but the mere fact that it was a warning didn't satisfy him, "The question is, who exactly is this warning for." What is the source of the warning? If it is only for the position of a wolf lord, would there be a caster of this rank to warn us in this way of this army of outsiders? Nuisa is hiding something, at least her identity and status in this tribe is definitely not as simple as a twenty-fourth woman, but how much can this concealment be exaggerated? If I remember correctly, although there are men and women in the spirits, the grassland society is patriarchal, and the position that a woman can achieve in this society is limited. ”

"So you think this warning is coming at you? Then I think we should just leave. I don't want to be eaten in my sleep by a giant worm rushing up from the ground. I don't know how you dealt with this before, but we don't have the slightest chance of winning against Him now. Kairas said in frustration that the shadow of the battle hung over everyone's hearts. Now that I think about it, even if Batu had been blessed by the spirits at that time, and slashed an earth-shattering blow through the justice of the fool, the bug would have seemed painless. The gap between the two was too big for even despair to rise, and perhaps for worms as well, so they could still sit here and be suspicious.

"I don't think that exists needs to warn us. If He really wanted to, all the people in this tribe together would not be able to disobey His will. As you said, the gap between us is too big, and the warning, build on when the gap between the two is not that big. Cheese frowned slightly, and began to speak faster, "So what could it be? This matter is obviously related to worms, but not worms themselves, unlike the parasites of the Schalle. The person who did it this time did not exclude his means, and his level could not transcend the entire social structure, at least in his opinion, we, whether it was you, me, or Nuisa, or whoever would be a threat to him. In this way, the gap between him and us should not be large. ”

Kairas looked at the gray-robed face, especially as the expression on his face gradually shifted from frowning to soothing as Cheese's analysis became clearer, but the cat elf's own confusion became more and more aggravated. He didn't understand that it was the enemy who was hiding in the shadows who wanted to use this incident to warn them, but when he got to the mage, it became the other party who took the initiative to expose his strength. And it sounds like there's a little bit of truth to it. The cat fairy shook his head, trying his best to suppress that sense of identity, "The strength of the other party has nothing to do with us, doesn't it? ”

Cheese looked at the cat elf and nodded in the shadows reflected by the vertical pupils. Indeed, the current situation was different from when he was dealing with the rat people in the blue lion, and there was no reason for him to get too involved in this, especially since he still had a mission to go to the City of Ten Thousand Laws. Perhaps, according to Kairas, it would be a good idea to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, as if you were scared away by the other party's warning.

So the mage smiled, exhaled, and his body relaxed. He looked at his sleeping companions, the expression on his face softening. Of course, he was still the gray robe with a desperate thirst for knowledge, but now that he also understood the weight of people, especially partners, on the scales, "I'll think about it." Let's get some rest, there's been so much going on tonight. ”
