Chapter XXXVIII
Out of the cave, the sky had become extremely gloomy, and it looked like a storm was coming.
"Laura, are we going to keep walking? Or go back and wait for the weather to improve? Su Bai asked Laura, who was beside him.
Laura looked up at the sky, bit her lip, hesitated for a moment and said, "The storm is coming, but we should still have some time." Continue to climb a distance to see if there is any shelter from the wind and rain. If not, let's come down again. ”
"No problem." Su Bai did not object.
So the two continued to climb up the cliff.
After climbing a cliff, there was a sudden sound of talking.
The two hurriedly hid behind a pile of debris, careful not to make the slightest sound.
"Hey! Did you find anything? In the wooden house on the right, a man shouted in English.
"No, nothing." Someone in the room on the left immediately replied.
"What?" It seems that because the rushing sound of the waterfall is too noisy, the person on the right did not hear the answer clearly, and asked again.
The man on the left exclaimed impatiently: "Nothing! There is no half-figure here! ”
After saying that, he added: "They can't run to this top." ”
"Shouldn't I go back to the bunker?" The man on the right asked loudly.
"No, the storm is coming. Let's wait for the storm to stop. The man on the left said.
"Okay!"
"Stay alert!" The man on the left gave a loud reminder.
The people on both sides ended shouting.
Su Bai glanced at Laura, lowered his voice and said, "Let's touch it and see if we can hear some useful information." ”
Laura nodded silently.
The two of them bent over to the room on the left.
At this moment, there was thunder in the sky, and then the rain dropped, and soon turned into a heavy rain.
When Su Bai and Laura came to the back of the house, they heard a conversation coming from inside.
"Let's go inside." One person said.
"Is that good?" The other had a hesitant tone in his voice.
Faced with the hesitation of his companion, the man said indifferently: "While we have time now, we can take a break." They'll be sure they'll send us a lot of menial work later. ”
Then, there was the sound of footsteps.
Su Bai gestured to Laura and signaled that there were two people inside.
Soon, the conversation began again.
"And what do you think they're doing with this?"
"What? Radio towers? ”
"That's right. That still works, right? ”
"Probably, it's been guarded by our men all day. St. Matthias did not let anyone come near. ”
"Do you think that's how he connects with the outside world?"
"Why else do you think no survivors have been able to climb here?"
"What do you mean?"
"Matthias knows exactly when the new ship will dock, and we have plenty of time to prepare every time."
That is to say...... He's seducing the ships. Use the tower signal to lure the ship ashore. ”
"That's right."
Hearing this, the two looked at each other. I saw a sudden look in Laura's eyes.
The people inside continued to chat, and the two of them patiently continued to eavesdrop.
"But why?"
"I think he was trying to find her...... Key. ”
"The key one? Do you really believe any of this? ”
"I ...... I do not know. Listen, we shouldn't be talking about it. It's important to get some rest. ”
"That's right, you're right."
The two men inside stopped talking.
"Solve them." Su Bai opened his mouth and said silently to Laura.
Laura nodded, and her feet moved, but she kicked a crockpot and made a noise.
"Who?"
The people inside were instantly alert, and a man asked.
The two immediately held their breath.
"Maybe it's some kind of bird or something." Another man in the room said, "It's impossible for anyone to come here in this weather." Unless they fly up with wings. ”
"I'll go out and have a look." The man, who seemed uneasy, said something to his companion, and then there was a sound of footsteps.
Seeing that he couldn't hide, Su Bai could only say to Laura: "Leave this to me, you go and solve the one inside." ”
"Okay."
Laura drew an arrow and placed it on her bow.
Su Bai took a deep breath and slowly walked to the corner.
Footsteps drew closer, and a shadow appeared on the ground.
The moment the man turned the corner, Su Bai suddenly stepped forward and hit him with an elbow on the throat. Then he grabbed the bow and put it on his head, and tightened it.
"How? Nothing, right? The man inside asked casually.
Laura stepped out in two steps and appeared in the doorway.
Under the stunned gaze of the man sitting by the wall inside, she resolutely let go of her bowstring.
Shout!
With a low sound, the arrow pierced through the man's neck.
"Ho Ho ......"
The man clutched his blood-gushing neck, his eyes widened and he stared at Laura, leaning backwards against the wall. Then his head drooped and he was silent.
Su Bai also eliminated his own enemies and walked over with a bow and arrow.
A man from the opposite room walked out: "What's going on......"
Su Bai turned his head and raised his bow and arrow. The moment the man's figure appeared in sight, he released the bowstring.
An arrow through the throat!
Seeing the man fall down holding his neck, Su Bai's face did not fluctuate at all, and his heart was as calm as water.
After going through so much, killing people can no longer bring him any negative emotions.
"There shouldn't be anyone else around here."
Putting down the bow and looking at Laura, who was still vigilant, Su Bai said.
Laura breathed a sigh of relief and put down her bow and arrow.
Turning her head to look at the corpse by the wall, she sighed slightly, and her mood was a little low: "Why is it like this every time...... I could have asked more from them. ”
"Alright, don't worry Laura, it'll be fine."
Su Bai patted her on the shoulder, comforted her, and continued, "I'll go and see if I can find anything." ”
After saying that, he walked into the house and went to search for the body.
It's a pity that this guy obviously has no status, except for a piece of dry food, his pocket is empty, and there is nothing useful.
Handing the dry food into Laura's hands, Su Bai said, "I'll go to the other side and have a look, you can rest here for a while first." ”
"No, I'm with you." Laura shook her head.
"Okay."
The two of them took advantage of the island-like rocks jutting out of the water, crossed the river formed by the falling waterfall, and came to the hut on the right.
Su Bai went straight to search for the body, while Laura looked around the house.
"Sue, I found something." She suddenly shouted.
"What?"
Su Bai, who was beside the corpse, raised his head, looked at her and asked.
"Here, there's a scroll. It's very similar to what we found before. Laura said with surprise in her tone.
Su Bai walked up to her and saw that the girl was holding a scroll in her hand and was carefully unfolding it.
"Let me see...... This is indeed the record left by the envoy. ”
Laura scrutinized the handwriting on the scroll.
The envoy said that he had learned from his communication with the villagers that the queen was able to communicate with the gods and had the power to control the rain and rain...... The existence of the Storm Warrior army is once again mentioned in it. This army protects the safety of the Queen's people......"
