Chapter 25: What We Never Knew (Part I)
Synopsis: "Big brother, what are you doing?!!!!"
Looking at Carl's expression of "so you are such a person, I misread you", Edison couldn't help but have a headache, but he could only pretend to be casual and said: "It's nothing, it's just a little magic experiment." As he spoke, he shook his shoulders and spread his hands, as if nothing had happened, whistling and fooling around.
But when Edison passed by Carl, Karl asked with tears in his eyes and a low voice with a little cry, "You killed it, didn't you?" ”
Obviously, this should be a question, but in Karl's mouth, it has become a simple statement.
"Okay! Okay! It's true that a slime died, but that slime was originally bought by me for experiments, and it's up to me what I want to do with it!" Edison looked at Carl and wanted to scratch his head, but the child always had a lot of compassion to squander, and he was not afraid of being blamed!
This made him explain impatiently, and walked away quickly. After all, by a child with a pair of "you're a big ...... Big Bad Guy" stared at him, and it felt really unpleasant, as if he had really become some heinous person.
......
In the afternoon, Edison left the small village and continued on his way, leaving behind a slime and a gold coin that had been unused after the experiment to pay for food and lodging for the past few days.
When leaving, seeing Carl holding the newborn slime with a smile on his face, Edison inexplicably felt a little envious, but in the end it turned into a chuckle.
It's just that he doesn't know either. When he was gone, neither Frey nor Jane. The smiles on their faces were all put away, but they showed a hint of bitterness.
The husband and wife silently watched Carl in the small village. Happily running around with the slime, in the end it was Frey who opened his mouth first, and he asked in a serious voice with a little confusion: "I didn't expect the target to be such a child, and he passed from us." This sentence seems to be both self-talking and seemingly confiding.
Jian Ze looked at her husband gently and said, "But if you want to do this, I will listen to you, but I really didn't expect to live here for decades." I still haven't escaped!" There seemed to be emotion and a little sadness in her tone.
Hearing Jane's words, Frey smiled wryly and said, "Okay! Anyway, it's going to be reported sooner or later, so I'll go into the city today." With that, he strode out the door.
Jane looked at Frey's back, her right hand tightened as if to grab the corner of his clothes, but in the end she didn't say anything, but silently watched her man leave.
After leaving the small village, Frey completely let go of his speed and walked quickly in the direction of the original "peaceful" town, judging by his speed at this time. It can be seen that Frey is a proper level 5 mortal warrior, and in terms of his age, although he cannot be regarded as a genius, it can be regarded as an extremely difficult achievement.
Less than half a day. He saw the walls of the town from afar, and he began to slow down, and at the same time took something from his bosom and put it on his face. Then the thing began to squirm around Frey's face as if it were some kind of living thing.
Soon a completely unfamiliar face appeared, but judging by the sweat oozing from the corners of Frey's forehead. This change of face is not a pleasant thing to do.
......
So in the afternoon of the same day, a merchant named John Smith came to the small town of "Ping'an". He sold a cart of Lan Shuye in a shop in the city, but before he left the city, the goods in the car accidentally overturned, and the contents of the whole car were dumped into a small ditch nearby.
In an instant, the small river ditch was dyed with a faint blue, the water source within a radius of 50 miles will actually be connected by the small river ditch in all directions, and dozens of small villages around, several villages are used for irrigation with the water of this river, and with the movement of the "Blue Lady" and the part of the pigment in the leaves of the plant meets the water, almost everyone sees the phenomenon of the river with light blue.
As soon as they inquired a little, everyone began to lament that this businessman's luck was really bad; in the eyes of most ordinary farmers, this was at most an extra thing to talk about after dinner, but in the eyes of those who cared, this matter was different.
Especially when they found out that the merchant's name was John Smith.
......
That night, after calming Karl to bed, Frey went to work on the ridge outside his village, and at first he took the slime with him and directed it to move slowly through the plough on the land, just like everyone else in the village.
But at some point, Frey gradually turned into a nearby grove, which was a forest planted by the villagers themselves, and it was also a natural barrier against the "beast tide".
At this time, there should be no one in the forest, but there are a few more figures that should not appear, and in the dark, I don't know who opened their mouths first, and asked: "Are you sure that the goal is from you?"
Frey hesitated for a ten-thousandth of a second, then said: "Yes, people have passed through me, and my wife has verified the portrait before she has determined it; ”
At this time, another voice asked, "What is the target's attitude towards ordinary people, and is it a target to be wooed?"
Frey pondered for a moment before replying, "There is no arrogance of the average magician, but ...... Seems to be very keen on magical experiments, and I can't say if he will embark on the forbidden path (necromancy experiments) in the future. With that, he remembered the slime that had died in the morning.
Such an answer caused the people in the darkness to frown, but they were relieved at the thought of their target's age. Suddenly, one of them asked urgently, "Did you expose anything?"
The corners of Frey's mouth glanced disdainfully, and then he said: "Do you think I am such an easily exposed person? For this surveillance mission, we husband and wife have really planted the land for more than ten years, and even have children, how can it be so easy to be exposed!?" These words are both a small question and a counterattack by Frey.
At this time, the first person to speak said: "Enough, No. 37, don't question the ability of No. 3's senior! If it weren't for the senior's alertness, our group of people who were monitoring would have been found and killed by that person a long time ago." Think of the groups of people who haven't come out since the plague was declared to close the city!"
After speaking, he tentatively asked: "I don't know if the seniors think that if they do it, how sure are we that we will directly capture him alive?"
As soon as these words came out, Frey's face wrinkled, and he asked in disbelief: "What do you mean by this, aren't we just monitoring his whereabouts?
"And every ninth-order demon warrior is the pinnacle of the warrior profession, if you want to touch that person's child, I will never participate. ”
Suddenly this answer was exchanged for a long silence.
It wasn't until another man in black who hadn't spoken before complained loudly, "What do you mean by the organization this time? With our rank, we shouldn't actually be here to spy on the overseer and his family in the organization, let alone capture them." ”
