Chapter 167: Goodbye in the Evening Breeze

It's night, and the wind is rushing. Such winds are rare in the summer of the grasslands, because the flat terrain is not conducive to the formation of strong winds, and even if they blow vigorously from the sky, they rarely pick up dust after they disperse into the vast grasslands. Of course, there are no absolutes in the world, and in the vast grasslands, hurricanes that are difficult to form in other regions may also form, or even turn into towering and terrifying tornadoes, sweeping people and animals into the sky and throwing them down heavily. However, tonight's wind has not yet reached that level, and at most, the bow and arrow will fly a third more distance while the wind is blowing.

Three people, standing in the wind, in such an open terrain, they are excellent targets. It's just that no matter how good an archer is, he can't shoot his target in the complete darkness of the night, because the person who can shoot the target beyond the visual limit can no longer be quantified by the word archer. Therefore, these three people are safe, after all, there are still more archers in this world, and those who surpass the archers have no reason to wander around the windy steppe at night so leisurely.

"I didn't expect to be here, to meet you again in this way. One of the three said that his voice was unaffected by the wind and was clearly reaching the ears of the other two.

"In that regard, so do we. The person who answered had a low trill in his voice, like an unconscious sound in the throat of a beast, and it was creepy. And where his voice came, there were two faint fires, which were not disturbed in the wind, and the fire was so unusual, that it did not look like the light that came from the burning of anything.

Cheese tilted his head, darkness was no reason to obstruct the gray-robed mage's vision, the magical light that pulsated in his eyes allowed him to see the world in a way superior to the naked eye. Thus, he could discern who the two flames belonged to. Uvel, the young leader of the Shale tribe, an ambitious and capable leader, one, dedicated his soul to the humans who exist in the lower classes. However, the mages were not uncomfortable by this, and the training of the Grey Robe made them far more familiar with the so-called lower levels, namely the Abyss, Hell, or other similar places, than most of the spellcasters of the other factions, and the means of summoning and controlling demons were a must for the Grey Robe. Their relationship with the lower classes is not so different.

However, this is not a reason for the mage to ignore this new change in Uvel, and has a deeper understanding of the lower world, and therefore knows better how unacceptable it is to give his soul to those things, "I should have told Kairas that it was to call out the witch. I didn't expect you to be in such a good mood, or is it better for you to be active at night than during the day?"

Uvel grinned, and the shaman standing beside him smelled a faint smell of sulfur from his leader's mouth, "Your reaction is not what I thought, I thought you would want to save Wuqi immediately." Now it seems that you are no different from me, don't you, you know them, you have dealt with them. ”

"Well," Cheese said with a complicated expression on his face, "of course I've dealt with them, you can ask the guy you're connected to." Ask him if he knows who the demon lord Erdu died at. By the way, you can also ask him if a few skinners can threaten a gray robe. ”

There were even more terrifying voices in the darkness, growls of discontent and anger at being discovered. In addition to his violent nature and twisted desire to kill, the Skinned Man also has considerable confidence in his own disguise ability, and now that the mage has lightly broken through the disguise in a few words, how can he not feel angry? But before the group of blood-eating creatures approached Cheese, Uvel raised his right hand, "How can it be said that it is a threat? I just want you to understand that your hard work has not been in vain. ”

The growl vanished as the raised hand fell. The control shown by the leader of the Shale tribe over the skinned person made the gray robe feel a little surprised, he did not expect that in addition to his own leader, these monsters would be willing to serve a human, even if this human has degenerated into a lower existence inside, but his body is still a mortal body. And the painstaking effort in Uvel's mouth also reminded Cheese of the temporary cooperation he had made with the leader of the group of skinners to get out of trouble, and it seemed that the ripple effect of that cooperation was more complicated than he thought.

"I didn't expect it to turn out like this. Are you really ready to go out of the sunlight to the darkness? Even if you don't do a good job, you can't go back. ”

"Who can't go back?" the smile on Uvel's face didn't diminish in the slightest, "You're too deep in this pool, Grey Robe. No matter what kind of ability you have, this is not your land, and the prairie under the eyes of the spirits has its own rules of the spirits, and your hand is a warning. And the person you're helping now, she's no kinder than I am. ”

Cheese looked at the man for a long time, and after Uvel himself thought that his words had made the mage angry, Cheese sighed, "You have your goal, and you have worked hard for your goal. The means are just a medium, and whether it is with the help of stratagem, force, spirits, or demons, it is not wrong from their respective perspectives. At least Wu Qi has approved of you, otherwise he would not be standing by your side now, serving the shaman of the spirits, and never yielding to the monarch of the world. ”

The smile on the leader's face was gone, and there was no smile on him, and there was neither arrogance nor fear in him. He's still Uvel, and though I don't know how he did it, the person standing here at this moment isn't as blind as others who have had similar experiences, and the aggressiveness just now was all a tactic of his to test Cheese's attitude towards him now.

"Hah, can I talk now? The next time you play this kind of game, can you choose one of the games when I'm not there, I really don't like that. Wu Qiru said that he had feared more than once that Uvel's words would provoke the cheese and turn the gray robe, which had a good relationship, into their enemy.

"It's better to lose an ally than to make an enemy for yourself. Even if I can't accept Uvel in that situation, he just needs to make you stand up to make me give up my hostility. When the shaman was afraid, the mage took the initiative to explain the behavior of his leader, "But you can get the skinner to act with you, there is a way." ”

Uvel winked slyly, "They don't know I'm acting." ”

This is an admission that if Cheese had shown hostility at the beginning, he would have really caused the Skinners to rush up and attack the mage, which would be uncomfortable to say even after the relationship between the two parties has been established. But in the eyes of the headman, he didn't say these words, and with the intelligence of the gray robe, it was just a change of thought, rather than this, it was better for him to take the initiative to confess, and honesty could save them a lot of unnecessary suspicion and hesitation in the communication between them.

Cheese shrugged, really not paying attention to it, "Now that we've decided that we still have room to work together, I can ask the questions I want to ask, right?"

The leader bowed humbly, took a half-step back behind Wu Qi, and handed over the conversation to the two spellcasters.
