5. Tracking
The three of them said goodbye to the mayor of the town, bought three horses in the town, and came out of the town, Liu Chen asked Kevin suspiciously: "Why do you have to see her every time?" ”
"Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot to introduce you to each other, it's the fat man who made trouble for me, this is Su Hong, the perceptual auxiliary awakener, she can help us sense whether the other party is lying, or if there are any powerful enemies around. This is Liu Chen, a newcomer. You guys get to know each other" said and gestured at the two, Su Hong didn't speak, just nodded, Liu Chen also felt their contempt, just smiled, and didn't say anything.
The trio were cautious, half-chasing and half-heeling, and finally caught up with the Vikings' rear team two days later. Look at the town with a raging fire in the distance. Three dismounted steps approached on foot.
Su Hong sensed it for a moment, and said to Kevin, "There shouldn't be any masters, I didn't feel the fluctuations of the elements, of course, it can't be ruled out that there are strong people who block my perception." ”
Kevin pondered for a moment: "It seems to be a team of hundreds, it's not impossible to defeat with the strength of the three of us, but it's not our purpose to fight them, you two don't have any good ways?" ”
Liu Chen looked at Kevin stunned: "You haven't thought about getting in?" ”
Kevin also looked at Liu Chen in a daze: "How did you get in like this?" ”
"I don't talk about me, I mean you, even the steel tower thinks you're a Viking, how can you do it if you don't try."
"I can blend in, but I don't look much like them, and I can change my outfit, but what about the two of you?"
"What is our mission? Stop the gods from descending, right? Now that we know we're tracking Vikings, what do Vikings represent? You don't know as a Germanic, do you? Vikings are pirates. What are a bunch of pirates doing if they don't find the mainland at sea? I remember that the Vikings believed in the Norse gods, and then the Norse gods gradually faded out of everyone's sight from history, why? ”
"Again, I am not Germanic," Kevin interrupted Liu Chen with some unhappiness. Don't sell it, say what comes to mind. ”
"What do Europeans believe in now? Christianity, now that we know that the gods are not legends but real people, under what circumstances will one sect be outlawed by another? I don't think it's going to be a simple exchange of interests, there must be some clues behind it that we don't know, maybe behind this is a war of the gods, this war is not what we see in the movies, it's a war between Christianity and the Norse gods. The outcome of the war is also obvious, Christianity won, the Norse gods lost, and it was a crushing defeat, and there were no Norse gods in the world. Or that there is one or a descendant of a few Norse gods, but they do not call the name of the Norse gods again, otherwise the result must be - obliteration. ”
Kevin and Su Hong didn't speak, looking at Liu Chen as if they were seeing a monster.
Liu Chen also shrugged his shoulders in Kevin's style: "Don't look at me like this, I was an analyst before I woke up." ”
"Weren't you a special forces soldier before you woke up?
"Who told you that special forces can't be analysts?
"Looking at our current era again, since they all know that the Germans are different from the Vikings, then it means that the Vikings must have gone downhill now, and since they are going downhill, it proves that the Norse gods have been defeated, at least there have been gods who have fallen in this war behind them. Otherwise, the two churches must still be in a stalemate. After speaking, Liu Chen looked at the two people who should not have come over.
"Now that we know about it, these Vikings are just looking for something, so what are they looking for? I remember that when the Norse gods fought against the Frost Giants, they left behind four Hallows, Hilven the Fairy Bow, Levatin the Flame Sword, Opp the Dragon's Jewel, and Gungnir the Meteor Spear. ”
"But isn't this against the Frost Giants?" Su Hong asked strangely.
"These four artifacts were left by the Norse gods to fight against the Frost Giants, but when the Norse Gods were in full swing, Christianity had not yet risen, so did you know that they could not fight against Christianity? And what is the mission this time? Is it to stop the gods, what to stop, to stop the gods from fighting again, or to prevent the gods from coming? If the gods have always been there, why don't we know about their wars? I don't think they must be in this space, can we understand that they are trapped somewhere, or is it just another space? And the Hallows against the Frost Giants are not meant to be used for direct confrontation, but are tools that can perform a ritual or summon effect? ”
Kevin laughed, "In this case, these four holy artifacts must have been obtained by the Christian church." ”
"No, it's not just that." Liu Chen cut off Kevin's words.
"If they had been obtained by Christianity alone, they must have been in Rome and not in France, and not all four relics had been lost, but only one, as can be seen from the number of Vikings, and the people who received the relics did not know that they were Norse relics or that they did not know what it did. Or maybe the news hasn't reached the Vatican yet. ”
"Well, what should we do then?" Liu Chen seemed to have become the leader of the three people, Kevin asked in a low voice.
"Like I said, get in with the Vikings, help the Christians when the Vikings are stealing the Hallows, or just steal the Hallows."
"Then why don't we just go and help the Christians?" Su Hong asked again.
This time, Liu Chen rolled his eyes, and sure enough, beauty comes at a price.
Su Hong should have thought of Liu Chen's meaning, and her face flushed: "If you have anything, just say it, don't be weird." ”
"I didn't speak," Liu Chen said helplessly: "Actually, this task can also be completed in other ways, I can inform Christians, like Su Hong said, help them complete this matter, and also destroy their sacrificial rituals, but I feel that it is better to grab things like this." First, it takes a process to help Christianity, and it takes a long time, and the way you and I look is doomed to the distrust of Christians. Second, we don't know who owns or what things are, and if we approach Christians directly, it is easy for people to misunderstand. Thirdly, if we want to understand the truth of things, we have to be able to get close to the core, and Kevin is easier than the two of us.
Well, Kevin must be a senior awakened person, and he has experienced a lot of events, so he will directly start assigning tasks, and we will bring a few Vikings out in a while, interrogating them, if it is really like what Liu Chen said, we will mix into the team again, and I will be responsible for communication in general, if someone is condensing, Su Hong will disguise it, if it is not close to the core elements, there should be no big problem. One more thing, we must pay attention, if things are really what we guessed, I think it is impossible for such a team to be without strong people, and it is likely that it is also disguised, so you must be careful. ”
After setting the goal, the three quickly approached the town, and now the town was in flames, and there were no screams in the town, and there were only five Vikings outside the town except for a few corpses.
Kevin looked at Liu Chen, "The first three are for you, and I will deal with the two in the back, be sure to kill them with one blow, but leave one alive, Su Hong, pay attention to it, don't let them send signals." ”
Liu Chen nodded, and swooped into the bushes on the side of the road.
Kevin and Su Hong slowly approached the Vikings, and after waiting for a few minutes, Su Hong nodded to Kevin, Kevin whispered in the grass, and instantly two fires appeared in Kevin's hands, Kevin pointed at the two sentries in the distance, and the firelight in his hand shot directly out of Kevin's hand, only to see two lines of fire crossed, and when they touched, the two sentries flew out directly.
Liu Chen had already lurked behind the three sentinels gathered together, as soon as Kevin made a move, Liu Chen pounced directly behind the sentry in front of him, the dagger in his hand cut the throat of the first sentinel, turned around and flicked, the dagger in his hand flew into the heart of the farthest sentry, fitting the last sentry in the longitudinal direction, and then the last sentry also reacted, and the spear in his hand slashed towards Liu Chen's chest. Liu Chen hurriedly turned to one side, the spear slashed past him, and he followed the spear close to the sentry forward, hitting the sentry's chest with a fist with his left hand, and pulling the spear with his right hand. The sentry immediately spurted out a stream of blood, took two steps back, gave up his spear, drew the short knife at his waist, and slashed at Liu Chen's head with a swing, and an inconspicuous silver light flashed in the light of the knife.
Kevin hurriedly shouted, "Be careful! Liu Chen swung the spear and wanted to block his short knife, the spear and the short knife were in contact with the tofu and did not block the downward slashing of the short knife at all, seeing that the short knife hit Liu Chen's head, Liu Chen turned his head, and a pair of earthy yellow armor suddenly appeared on his body, which summoned his skill Earth War Armor, and blocked the demonic short knife, and then reached out and held the sentinel's right hand holding the knife, and broke his hand with his backhand, and kicked him in the stomach, this time the sentry no longer had the power to resist, and knelt on the ground with his stomach.
Kevin and Su Hong rushed over, and Kevin took the short knife in Liu Chen's hand: "This is what I call special powers, although we are awakened, these powers are enough to hurt or even kill us." "Look at the sentry again" This should be an honest disciple, this knife should have been blessed with divine power. ”
Liu Chen collected the earth armor and looked at the shoulder that was cut: "Careless, that is to say, there may be many such guys among these people, but I don't know how strong their leader is, we can deal with it, right?" ”
As soon as he lowered his head, he kicked the sentry off his leg bone and put a knife against the sentry's throat: "What's your name?" ”
As soon as the leg bone was broken, the already half-dead sentry wailed again, but as soon as he made a sound, he was frightened back by the knife in his throat. Just wanted to harden the bones to charge a hero, Liu Chen stepped on his broken leg again, and the knife tightened again, "You don't have to say, I will crush your bones one by one, and then throw you in the wilderness, and the wild wolf will tear your flesh and blood one by one, until your blood is gone." ”
"I said, I said, the guy screamed."
"Name?"
"My name is Tuya Giar."
"Age?"
“25。”
"How many of you are there?"
"A hundred, I don't know, I'm just a sentinel," Giar whispered.
"You're lying," Liu Chen slammed his feet.
"I'm not lying, God Odin."
"And how did this knife come about? Don't say I didn't give you a chance, the short knife pressed against Kiak's neck, and with a slight slash, blood immediately spurted out. ”
"It was Roque who gave it to me."
"Who's Roque?"
"Roque is my brother-in-law, and he promised my sister to keep me safe, and he lent me this knife when he left in the morning."
"Left?" Liu Chen frowned: "How many people have left?" ”
"A dozen or so, those monsters are gone anyway."
"Monsters?"
