Chapter 23 We Need Unity

"They ran away?" Elis' eyes and mouth opened so wide that they almost took up his entire face.

"No one thought that the bastard boy would take a water-crossing scroll and run away to the other side of the river with the bitch. Hilton replied indignantly. None of the others had a good face.

"The scroll of the water-crossing technique?" said Isis and the old man looked at each other.

Making a magic scroll is never an easy task. It is an unimaginable difficulty and expensive price to store the magic that can only be emitted by slowly reciting spells and using mana carefully and accurately, and explode instantly when it is used. The magician who makes the scroll must be very proficient in using that magic, and at the same time, his own level must be better than that magic, otherwise the slightest mistake in the production may lead to his life.

Usually only a high-level magician can make a mid-range magic scroll, while a high-end magic scroll requires a great magician to be able to make, and the top-level magic scroll manufacturing is simply a big magic project, and the scrolls produced are also worth the border city. The production of magic scrolls consumes magic materials, and the higher the magic level, the materials used are super expensive, and the degree of costliness increases almost exponentially.

Although the water crossing technique is not the top water-based magic, it is by no means a big road commodity that ordinary magicians can use, and there are no more than twenty great magicians in the continent who can make this kind of scroll, and no one asks for it to be willing to spend magic materials to make this scroll. This scroll is almost the lowest cost for money of almost all scrolls, and no one wants to spend hundreds of gold coins to take two steps on the water unless there is a very special and urgent situation.

"Could it be...... This kid has a plan for a long time, so he prepared a scroll for crossing the water?" Isis scratched his hairless head vigorously, trying to deduce the truth of the matter, but he couldn't figure out why. "But...... How could he have known that we were going here, that we were resting here? if it was after resting here, he had decided...... Where did he get that kind of scroll...... Someone sent it to him? No way, this ...... What's going on?"

"I said there's something really wrong with you woman. You can catch up with them, so why don't you catch up and entangle them?" Hilton stared at Jessica, the pain on his face trembling. "Even if you're not an opponent. But you can't die if you get stabbed twice. Fight with two stabs to catch them, and we'll follow. ”

"You come and take me twice and see if you can't die. The masked woman played with the two daggers in her hands. Looking at Hilton coldly, he glanced in the direction of the man and the druid, intentionally or unintentionally. "I'm not the only one who can't run fast. ”

Hilton looked at the two daggers that shone blue in the woman's hands, and immediately looked at the druid, and said, "That's right." Anderson, if you were able to catch up with us so quickly, why didn't you rush to us later?"

"Although my explosiveness is very good after transformation, my physical strength is very poor. The druid gave a wry smile that was very honest. Judging from his standard middle-aged figure, this is indeed understandable.

", okay, okay. One was afraid of being knifed, and the other had no physical strength, so he let the two guys run away. Hilton turned his head indignantly. "That kid knows we're going to Turalone to do something big. What if he tells that bitch about this, and that bitch leads the Kingdom Knights to us?"

The druid said slowly, "I don't think that kid will be able to say it." Even if she did, the Templar might not be looking for help, and since she had broken into our assembly alone, it was a sign that she was arrogant and disdained to be in the company of others. Celeste's relationship with Queen Catherine has never been good, and the knight said it at the end. She wants the honor of a knight to fight and wash away her shame. So I don't think she's going to be looking for help. At the very least, they probably won't ask the Knights of the Kingdom for help. ”

"Maybe?should?*. We're not going to enjoy the mountains and rivers, we're going to do big things and do big business. Hilton almost jumped, and he couldn't suppress his anger at the thought of the two elven maidens and the large pile of treasures he had asked of Cilika. "That's a sale of tens of thousands of gold coins. There's no room for the slightest slip up. But what do you say, maybe, should. Maybe this trade will be ruined, and the elves and treasures of our land ......"

"Say no more!" a loud roar like a volcanic eruption erupted from Hilikadi's throat. He had been sitting on the ground with a gloomy face, as if he had been stimulated by Hilton's words. He stood up sharply. The muscles on his face were all twisting and wriggling, the muscles of his whole body were rising and falling, and his bloodshot eyes swept over everyone's face.

Swept by the eyes that seemed to be soaked in blood, the women Jessica and Hilton involuntarily jumped away and took up their weapons, while the old man and Isis fled in a hurry, and the druid retreated. They could instinctively feel the anger and murderous aura in Helika's body that was about to explode at any moment. This murderous aura, the brutality, the wild blood, the murderous aura of other people or beasts, and the target, there is also a purpose, there is a murderous aura of hundred, there is no kind of killing, there is killing, everything can be killed, more murderous than any murderous aura, as if he may catch the people around him at any time and bite them to pieces.

Only the man was the only one who didn't walk around, but still sat there, looking at Helika with a pair of shining eyes, and whispered, "You'd better calm down." ”

Helika's gaze immediately fell on the man's face, and the fierce light in it became even stronger. Blood was already pouring out of his mouth, dripping, I don't know if it was because his teeth were clenched too tightly or because he had bitten his tongue or the flesh of his mouth. Suddenly, he grabbed the little finger of his left hand with his right hand, and there was a 'Gera' sound.

The muscles on Kaka's face trembled, and he let go of his hand, the tail finger had been twisted and broken, and a white broken bone could be seen breaking through the skin in the moonlight. Then he gripped his ring finger again, and there was the same goosebump-inducing cracking sound, which was only broken.

Isis didn't understand what was going on, and wanted to ask or stop him, but he didn't have the guts.

Several other people could see that he was forbearing.

It wasn't until she severed her index finger that Healica let out a sigh of breath, like a moan she had just given out on a woman. The expression on his face finally calmed down. It seems that the surging murderous energy in the body has finally found an outlet, and it seems that it has passed a very difficult hurdle mentally.

"Mr. Sandfeth. Helika sat down, his expression now as calm as that of a monk who had just taken a bath. Even the voice had a taste of rationality that I had never seen before. The four fingers of the left hand are twisted like twists. The bones were still exposed, and the blood was bubbling up, but Helika didn't care, as if it was something that had grown on someone else's body.

But it wasn't just this one that surprised everyone, it was the man he spoke of. It wasn't until I looked at the man that I realized he was talking to the man.

"Mr. Sandfeth. I know the name is a pseudonym, just like you just said your name is Sandru. There is no way that someone like you can have such an obscure name. But I don't care who you really are. Helika straightened out his severed fingers, and took them back one by one, joining the bones of the sections, making a tooth-aching sound between the bones. But Hilica didn't look at it, his eyes were on the man he called Sandfeth, calm and solemn, like a respectful elder. "It was Elsis' old friend Fodoleng who introduced you here. That's when he said you had that name. I didn't ask about it, but the old man Fodolen had dealt with me for many years. He's a famous old fritter from the Ednfast side, and I can trust him. The point is, we all get together and get rich, so what's your name. Who it is, what you have done in the past, etc., I only care about one thing, and that is whether you can achieve a common goal with me, so that everyone can get benefits."

The man named Sandface did not speak. He only nodded silently.

"Everybody sit down, please listen to me. Helika beckoned to everyone, like a benevolent host. "I say this to make everyone stop complaining and suspicious each other, and it doesn't have the slightest effect. You know, we all come together for the same purpose and act for the same goal. Something has happened, we don't need to think about it anymore, all that's left is to focus all our energy to face the situation in the future, and everyone always remember that we have common interests. ”

"What we need most now is unity. Helika clenched his fists, and his face and voice had a gentle fighting spirit, a textbook leader expression.

"That's right. Hilton seemed to be very touched, nodded vigorously, and several other people also nodded slightly.

Only Isis tilted his head like a wooden statue to look at Cilika, his mouth wide open, and his face shifted. He suspects that his boss has gone crazy because of overstimulation.

At noon the next day, the group finally arrived at another stronghold of the Shenmuhi thieves.

Completely different from the mansion near the Intramus, this is just a deserted manor in the middle of nowhere. There are already quite a few thieves who have come here first. The expected mass manhunt for them did not seem to take place, not even ordinary patrols, and without waiting for the other thieves, Helika immediately called a meeting.

Helika began by telling everyone about his plan. In view of the presence of traitors, the action must be carried out as quickly as possible, and the Tulaone forest must be rushed as quickly as possible.

The plan was detailed, and it seemed hard to imagine that someone like Helika could have such a mind, but the other thieves didn't seem to be surprised by this. What made them feel strange was another thing, Boss Healy seemed to have become gentler, and the murderous and bestial nature that could be seen at any time before seemed to be gone, but it also seemed to be faintly more terrifying.

Although the Shenmuhi thieves are thieves, they are no less efficient than the army. Helika announced the details of the plan, and immediately asked his thieves to prepare separately, that is, arranged rooms for Hilton and a few others, so that they could rest and recharge. However, the man named Sandface said that he did not want to rest for the time being, and that he wanted to go out alone to make preparations.

All outsiders were used to deceiving them, and only the original members of the Shamuhi Thieves remained.

Hilika suddenly said to Isis, "I remember that the kid who escaped with white magic was found by you. ”

"Yes. Isis replied with trepidation. For some reason, Boss Helika seemed less violent now, but he felt as if he was more afraid of him. "But that's how I do it. I also heard from two of my men that there was a master who was looking for something to do, so I went to talk to him and called him to see if he was in good shape. Boss, you can ask those two guys......"

Helika didn't look at the others, but asked lightly, "Then you should have investigated the situation of that kid?"

"Investigated, investigated. Isis nodded like a fair man. "It was the guys in charge of intelligence who went to check it quietly, and the information is absolutely reliable. The kid's grandfather was scared crazy by the werewolf and his sister, so he was in a hurry to use the money. ”

"Good. Helika nodded, the expression on his face did not fluctuate, and his voice was very calm, like a conversation over afternoon tea, and said to the two thieves, "Go to this boy's old house and catch his sister as fast as you can." Cut off that chick's hands and feet first, but remember that you must not kill her, and then I will send it over, you must remember," his voice paused, although it was still a very flat and relaxed tone, but half of the people present had goosebumps, "I want her to be by at least fifty men in all their ways before she is sent to me, and she must live well, at least until I can her in front of that kid a few more times." ”

"Yes. "The two men almost escaped.

Helika took a long breath and said lightly to a thief next to him, "Get me five or six women right away." ”

The thief was embarrassed and said, "Boss...... This wilderness is about to ...... Where are you going to find a woman?"

There was no anger or even any expression on Cilika's face, just a slap in the face of this subordinate, and said lightly: "If it doesn't work right away, then as soon as possible." ”

"Yes, yes. The men scattered in a hurry, leaving only Isis and the one who had been slapped in the face.

It's not that this slap-in subordinate doesn't want to go, but he can't walk. Half of his head had been shattered into a rotten thing that didn't look like anything, and it was twisted from the left side of his neck to his back and then to the right. After a few shakes, the remaining half of his head seemed to be thinking about walking away before he collapsed with a normal thud.

Helika turned and walked towards the inner room, and said lightly to Isis, "Let's go, I think we should inform our employer." ”
