(87) Pale (Yuffie Steamiz, II)
The text on the plaque seems to contain allusions that Yuffie is not very clear. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info at least she can roughly understand what they mean.
Bearing the burden of humiliation and serving her country - this did not correspond to some of her expectations. Of course, perhaps it was the swordsman who attacked them indiscriminately that gave her some preconceived impressions of this place.
The organization, called The Pale Hand, seems to be more tightly structured and has a longer history than the Alliance's Dispersal Society. As for the rest, it was what she was going to get from the other person's mouth a moment later.
In her quest to 'know potential adversaries,' she was in agreement with the man who called himself Wei Feng.
"Follow me." Wei Feng's words interrupted her thoughts. She looked up and saw the man turn around and walk towards the side of the room without looking back. She glanced at her companions, shrugged, and walked after them.
has come here, and if he seems cautious everywhere, it is easy to be looked down upon by the other party.
After leaving the hall, you will see a long and narrow hallway. There are no windows on either side of the promenade, and the light source is provided entirely by circular installations embedded in the top. It was the 'light bulb' invented by Noka, and in principle, it was not far from the permanent torch of the El Continent, but the form was simpler and neater, and the cost seemed to be lower.
Based on the temperature in the hallway, they should be underground. Generally speaking, the cost of building a fortress underground is several times more expensive than that of the aboveground. However, considering the man's ability to manipulate the earth and rock, perhaps the cost of the fortress was not as high as she had imagined.
Even so, hundreds of feet long, deep and winding corridors; Heavy doors that dot the corridors and look like they've been many years old; In addition, the well-trained guards who walked by their side from time to time, with a solemn demeanor, all proved the strength and heritage of the organization in front of them.
None of that scared her. She had fought against the Fire Demon alone, and with her friends she had gone deep into the enemy capital of the war, and even the defeated and killed Gide Sheen was probably still above the man who called himself Wei Feng in terms of personal strength. She doesn't value power as much as Lily, but as a wizard of law, Yuffie never lacks the means to protect herself.
The journey of silence lasted for several minutes. They walked through the wooden door at the end of the corridor and stepped into a spacious hallroom. In the center of the hall was a thick round table, empty of which four chairs were neatly arranged around it, painted brown, red, white and black, in a strange sense of ceremony. On the walls of the hall hung several framed letters, in a vigorous and powerful style, as if they had been written by the same person.
"Sit down." The man walked over to the round table, turned around, casually pointed to the table, and then sat down on the brown chair to himself.
Yuffie didn't shirk and sat quietly across from the man. Lin chose the black seat to her right, while Anya and Mantianxing stood behind them, with no intention of taking their seats.
"The white-clothed aunt promised us to bring us some pastries." Lin blinked and opened her mouth before the man, looking unseldom nervous, "But look at you here...... It doesn't look like there's anything good to eat. ”
"I'm afraid you won't be disappointed in this regard. As the department in charge of logistics, at least I am still a little confident in terms of food. Wei Feng showed a faint smile, and then returned to seriousness, "Okay, answer my question, it won't take much time for you." ”
Yuffie shrugged and gestured for the other to ask as many questions as he pleased.
"Your names, and where did you come from?"
"Yuffie Stanmidz, and Lynn Campbell, from the village of Lily of the Valley, north of the Alliance."
Wei Feng glanced at Anya and Man Tianxing, who didn't answer, "How did you get involved in the incident in the southern part of the alliance?" ”
"One of the villagers sensed something unusual, and we stopped by to take a look...... And then I got caught up in it. This time it was Lynn who answered.
"Tell me about your problem-solving process."
"Toline's blessing, we found the troublesome black dragon and fought with it." Yuffie shook his head slightly, "Honestly, it was a risky move, and it cost Noka Main his life - let me choose again, I'm afraid I'll be a little more cautious." ”
"What are you here for?"
"Hmm...... It's kind of a look at the scenery, right? By the way, I visited a man named Luo Zhen. Lin glanced at Yufie, "It's better to say that Lady Luo Zhen invited her to be a guest." ”
"Luo Zhen......" Wei Feng frowned rarely, and was silent for a while, "Who are you and what do you want to do?" ”
This question seems a bit clueless, but both Yuffie and the rest of them can understand what the other party cares about.
"Two regular travelers, well, four now." Yuffie replied calmly, "Roaming around, observing and writing down everything that belongs to this continent, that's all." ”
Yu Feng put his fist on his chin, groaned for a moment, and then stood up.
"It doesn't hurt to just observe. Unfortunately, you seem to be overzealous. He said with a serious face, "For the sake of you, and the safety of the little girl who secretly left the alliance as the Demon King, you had better stay here for a while longer." The man exhaled, "Don't worry, I'll naturally allow you to leave after some time." ”
Yuffie glanced at the girl behind her. It is not surprising that Anya's identity was discovered by the other party, and it seems that even the parties themselves have the same cognition, and they do not show panic because of this. Unfortunately, this proposal was not quite to her liking.
"If I don't agree, what are you going to do?" She asked bluntly, "You should understand that it's not a good choice for you to do it here." ”
Of course, the same is not true for them. It's a stronghold that has been in operation for decades or more, and it's likely that various methods have been set up to restrain wizards, such as magic fields to suppress arcane arts, or barriers and traps for teleportation. That's why she didn't try to use teleportation to escape, as the interfered teleportation spell was likely to anomalous, sending them to unpredictable, or even unsurvivable locations.
If it weren't for that, the man in front of them wouldn't be alone with them easily. She could see that Wei Feng was informal, but in fact he was a thoughtful person.
Wei Feng narrowed his eyes and looked at her face, "I have a hunch that you will eventually become unexpected variables. And I don't want to see that happen. ”
