Volume 3 Recklessness Chapter 6 A Little Almost (II)
Saiya closed her eyes, she didn't say anything right away, and after a while "Hahaha" Saiya laughed, it wasn't a laugh, but a subtle sneer, not mocking Hopler, more like a sympathy.
"What do you mean?" Hopler sensed that Saya seemed to have some opinions.
"Hopler... Uncle, are you serious?" Saya stared at him, her eyes containing a subtle expression.
Hoppler knew what that meant, sympathy, but he didn't understand why Saiya looked at him like that, Hoppler was a little angry, "What the hell do you mean, you don't want to find it, I'll find it myself." He said he was going to stand up.
Saiya pressed him down in time, and Nightingale pressed her hands on his shoulders, but Hopler was so tall that the thief had to stand up his thighs, "Uncle Hopler, do you want me to remind you that you still have to report to the Warriors' Guild." β
This sentence made Hopler stunned.
"They're just your students, not orthodox warrior apprentices yet. How long do you want to spend on them?" Saya said very seriously and directly, but it also had the best effect, this kind of thing was hidden and easy to misunderstand, and Nightingale knew very well who to face and what way to speak.
Hoppler sat on the ground, as if he had forgotten all this, and it was Saiya's reminder that brought back his memory, "What about them? I can't just leave it alone, can I?" Hoppler shook his head, as if he was talking to Saiya, and as if he was talking to himself.
"You should give them to the church, to Yass Langley, this is the best place for them. Saiya sharply pointed out the best solution.
"Rhodes is going to be a Knight-of-Oath, and I'm going to train them!" Hopler said excitedly, "That's not enough. β
"It's the same with letting them go to church, and even better, can you teach them anything new? What else are you allowed to teach them?" Saya's tone was raised, and she was standing looking down at Hopler.
"I've got somethingβ" Hopler was still struggling, gritting his teeth to say something but holding back.
"Are you going to break your oath?" a dagger was placed on Hopler's neck, "You're a warrior, not a thief, you can't mess around like me!"
Pushing Saiya away, Hope staggered to his feet, and the blow made him a little unsteady.
"It's time to wake up from some dreams, Uncle Hopler, and the time for parting is near. "Saiya has been calling him uncle since now, which is a respect that has never been seen before, in fact, Nightingale just wants to remind the warrior of his age.
"I'll think about it when this mission is over. Hopler's face sank and he prepared to leave.
"There are still a lot of calves waiting for you in the Warrior Guild, and it's unfair for you to stay here. "Saiya is a bit reluctant.
"I see!!!Don't say it!!" Hopler yelled at Saiya, but immediately he realized his impulse, "I'm sorry, Saiya, I..."
Shaking her head, Saiya grabbed Hopler's arm, "I'll go down with you, no matter what happens in the future, you have to have a good rest tonight, no matter how simple tomorrow's task is, it will take a lot of energy." β
"They are good students. Hopler didn't object, and asked Saiya to pull him out.
"And it's fun. Saiya smiled, as if she had thought of something.
"Reversing the King of the Dance, of course it's fun. Hopler saw through Saiya's thoughts at a glance, this kind of thought, thieves are not good at hiding.
"It was just an occasional dream I had. Saiya pulled Hopler and jumped to the ground, landing safely, but because of Hopler's weight, the ground shook slightly, and her long hair scattered to cover Saya's face.
"That's not a dream. Hopler reminded her.
"It has to be. Saiya looked at the warrior with a determined look in her eyes, but this alone could not be ambiguous.
"You're young. There's a lot of things you haven't done yet..."
"Geniuses only live in their own world, my world is big enough. β
The next morning, the teenagers came to the first floor, and Hopler and Saiya were already there, and they were on a mission today, so they didn't have to train in the morning.
"Uncle Hopler, are you in bad spirits?" Lott keenly sensed that something was wrong with Hopple.
"What's wrong with me?" Hopler looked at Lott strangely.
"I feel like you woke up with a hangover today as before, some...."
"Nothing!" Hopler interrupted, "sit down and eat, and set off after eating." He beckoned the two of them over.
"Don't worry, right?" the two walked to the table and sat down, and Rod picked up a piece of bread and nibbled on it, "Count the time, we can rest for a while before leaving." β
"Smack!" There was a loud bang, and Hopler slapped it on the table, and Rod was so slapped that the bread in his hand fell off, "How can you be so casual!"
The two teenagers looked at Hopler blankly, they were all stunned, Hopler's face was really scary, they were so afraid that they didn't even dare to take the bread.
"Eat. Saiya didn't have a good idea at this point, she handed the bread to the two of them, and quietly patted Hopler.
The soldier actually regretted it a little after speaking, but he couldn't get off the stage for a while. The night was not peaceful, he didn't even realize it, he unconsciously poured his thoughts about his children into Rod and Lot, if it wasn't for Saiya's reminder, he might really plan to take care of them for the rest of his life. But now that he realized this, the pain of being separated was unbearable for him, and he understood that the two people in front of him were just his students, but this was undoubtedly the first batch of students in his life, and the students he poured the most affection into, almost... I can think of it as a child.
After the teenagers finished breakfast, "go" Hopler's voice sank, after all, he said so, it would be a little inappropriate to let them rest again, and Hoppler had to pretend to be it.
The two hurriedly checked everything they were going to bring with them, and then trotted out of the hotel. Originally, I went to the Adventurer's Guild to call a carriage, but I came out very early today, and there was no carriage on the street, so the four of them had to walk to the Adventurer's Guild.
Hopler kept a straight face all the way, and the teenagers worried about whether they had done something wrong, so they went to ask Saiya, but Saiya didn't answer them, just shook her head. In such a situation, they naturally did not dare to ask Hopler directly, so they could only move forward with questions and uneasiness. The road from the hotel to the Adventurer's Guild was already accustomed, so the speed was not slow, and the group soon came to the Adventurer's Guild. When passing by the church, the teenagers also happened to see Father Palgus, they waved to him from a distance, but Hopler urged him tightly, and before Palgus could raise his head, the teenagers were urged to enter the adventurer's guild, and it seemed that they could only wait for the mission to come back and then go to the priest.
"Yo, it's so early today. "It's a man in his thirties, not very old but already a seasoned adventurer, recently because of frequent missions, the group has become familiar with the adventurers here, plus they have been familiar with some of them in the gladiatorial arena, and now most of the adventurers in Lozema know Rod and Lot. In fact, the biggest reason why I can get acquainted with these people so quickly is not because of the two teenagers, but because Saiya deliberately covers her face every time, and the adventurers here guess that she is a big beauty, so they all find a way to get close to them.
"yes, didn't you come early, Pritz?" said Rod as he stepped forward.
The two touched their hands, and then Pritz looked at Lot, "Reverse the King of the Dance, come on today." β
"Don't call me that nickname, it's okay..."Lott's face turned red.
"Hahaha" Pritz smiled, nodded at Hopler and Saiya, and walked away.
While the Adventurer's Guild in Lozema is crowded all day, there are fewer people in the morning. But that's only for the people in the hall. On the way to the teleportation room, the queue is quite long, there are a lot of people using the teleportation every day, and the teleportation ceremony can only teleport a batch in a few minutes at the earliest, so this queue usually makes people wait for a long time. Of course, if it was Jasminera's meaning, it was allowed to cut the line, which was the case in the nameless town at the beginning, and the town of Kuro was much less than the people of Lozema.
It's really too early for everyone to come today, the teleportation room hasn't opened yet, most of the adventurers are idle people, the queue itself makes them very irritable, they can't stand waiting when they don't open the door, and Hopler and Saiya have trained the teenagers to be patient very early, so today they are standing at the door where no one is queuing, they must be the first batch.
After waiting patiently for a while, the door opened, and behind it stood a blue-robed mage. Seeing Hopler, the mage understood, the warrior was already familiar with his face, "Hopler, where are you going today?" He let the four of them into the teleportation room.
"Mission, Clearing the Monsters in the Kuruno No. 1 Mountains. "Hopler accurately reported the assignment.
"That's free teleportation. "The mage is shooting a blue glimmer of magic on everyone" That's right, the identity is right. Stand in the middle of the magic circle. β
According to the magician's instructions, everyone quickly stood in the middle of the circle, this is not the first time they have received teleportation, everyone is familiar with the road, there will definitely be a lot of people coming after that, it is not good to grind. After standing in the middle of the circle, the teenagers chose to close their eyes, after all, the teleportation was still a bit dazzling.
"In the name of Baladei, time flows, space travels, those who seek please go to the other side!"
When the teenagers opened their eyes, this was no longer a teleportation room, and they looked left and right to find that they were indeed in a mountain, surrounded by green, it seemed that the plants here were growing well, and this dense forest was the easiest place for monsters to lurk, and the teenagers immediately drew their swords.
"Let's go, let's go forward to determine the location, and then go up the hill and start searching. Hopler instructed the two of them, and he struck the ground with the head of the axe, and a muffled sound lifted everyone's spirits.
It is customary for the adventurer to explore from the starting point to the top of the mountain, and then from the top of the mountain to the base of the mountain. In this way, you can try to look for monsters as carefully as possible, but you don't always have to go all the way, if you get rid of a satisfactory number of monsters or encounter sudden weather, injuries, etc., they can always notify the guild to teleport them back in advance.
Reverse teleportation is a magic mark planted by the mages of the teleportation room on the adventurers' bodies in advance, as long as this mark does not disappear, they can pull the adventurer back to the teleportation room, which is also one of the insurance measures to ensure the safety of the adventure, but the reverse teleportation also takes time to prepare, and cannot be activated immediately.
And the premise is that there must be a person in the team who can communicate magic to inform the guild, although this is the simplest magic, but not everyone can learn it, if the communication fails, the adventurer can only wait for the guild to force a counter-teleportation after a day and a night to pull them back.
Before Hopler's team had taken two steps, a rune of communication magic appeared next to Hopler, "Hopler, are you sick!! and Modrilla's voice seemed to deafen the warrior.
