(87) Pallor (Yuffie Stanmitz, III)

"What the hell are you guys up to?" Lin licked her lips and raised her head to stare at Wei Feng, "If it's interesting enough, maybe we can work together?" ”

"No comment. "Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info" Wei Feng replied in a deep voice, "Let me take you to your accommodation here." He looked at Anya and paused for a moment, "You're not demons—including that little girl. So, I'm not going to make a move on you. ”

Yuffie was secretly amused in her heart. The man in front of him obviously had a considerable degree of hatred for the demon clan, but even Anya, who was the 'demon king', was still treated as a human by him. It seems that her judgment is correct, the man still sticks to his principles and has not lost his mind because of hatred.

She pursed the corners of her mouth slightly, "May I ask you a few questions, Wei Feng?" ”

The man stopped as he was about to step out of the door and looked back at her.

"Lie down and taste the guts, serve the country loyally,......" she whispered, reciting the words she had seen earlier, "Is this the creed of The Pale Hand?" ”

Yu Feng swallowed silently and chuckled in a low voice.

"Oh no wonder you noticed those words." "That was indeed the idea of the organization when it was founded, and ...... now," the man grinned self-deprecatingly, "who knows." ”

"Okay." Yuffie shrugged, "And what's your credo, Lieutenant?" ”

"Slay all demons." The man replied without hesitation, "It's a pity that I don't have enough strength to do this alone." He shook his head, clenching his right fist, "But at least, I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that the people of the empire don't get killed by those monsters." ”

"But the demon clan...... Youkai aren't all bad guys. Anya bit her lip, but couldn't help but step forward, "Mr. Wei Feng is too, and so is "Breaking the Meeting", is it ...... Is there no other way than to kill each other? ”

"For me, that's the only option." Wei Feng said gloomily, "If you have experienced the same thing as me, you should not be surprised. He sneered twice, "Actually, there are thousands of people who have suffered the same thing as me in the empire. ”

"At least the right target for revenge should be chosen." Lin walked up to Anya and shook her head at Wei Feng, "Otherwise, what's the difference between what you've done and those who have done the wrong thing to you?" ”

"You two, you're really nosy." The man glanced at Anya and Lin coldly, "I have not killed innocents indiscriminately, but I will not let go of those I think should be killed." If you want to persuade me to change my mind, you should dismiss it as soon as possible. ”

Yuffie looked at the three of them from a distance, making a secret assessment in his heart. The answer that the leader of the "earth" had just answered was enough to prove that he was not a wicked man, and that he was kind of cute in a sense. Of course, she wouldn't say that easily.

"Enough questions." Yu Feng glared at Anya, who seemed to have something to say, and let her swallow the rest of her words back, "Now, if you still want to force your way out—" he swept the hall with a sharp gaze, "Then I can only say I'm sorry." ”

Does this mean that they are going to use force against them? Yuffie shook her head lightly and walked up to the man, "Please lead the way." Also, don't forget that you promised us dinner, Lynn is looking forward to it. ”

Wei Feng nodded, turned his back, and strode back along the original corridor. The depressing atmosphere that was originally shrouded in the hall suddenly became much more relaxed because of this.

Anya exhaled and leaned softly on Lynn's shoulder, "I thought it was ...... just now It's really going to be a fight. ”

"Even if there is a fight, there is nothing to be afraid of." Lin touched the top of the girl's head, then took the other and walked quickly to her side, "What are you going to do, Yufie?" ”

"There's always a way, right?" She replied lightly, "Besides, wouldn't it be nice to stay here a little longer?" At least food and lodging are free. ”

……

Wei Feng did not embarrass them.

Several of them were placed in the same room. The room with eight beds was naturally spacious enough for four people. Meals and water are served at regular intervals, and they are simple but delicious dishes and soups served with piping hot rice or freshly baked scones. For Yuffie and Lynn, who have never tasted the flavor of Innis, it is also quite interesting to guess what they will be able to eat at the next meal.

Outside the door, two guards were stationed day and night. They were obviously instructed to do their best to meet the additional requirements of Yuffie and the others. In fact, the original purpose of these guards was not to prevent them from escaping - it was the enclosed fortress itself that really did this.

In their free time, they are allowed to walk around a fixed area and chat with the members stationed there. During casual conversations with the other party, Yuffie learns about the origin of the fortress and parts of its history in The Pale Hand.

The fortress was not built by Yufu, but by the leader of the first generation of "Tsuchibu", and it has a history of nearly 300 years. It is said that each generation of earth chiefs inherited the power of 'controlling the land' and subsequently renovated and strengthened the fortress, so the building they saw is still as strong as it used to be.

As for whether the so-called 'manipulation of the earth' is a magic or some special talent, and how to complete the inheritance, the members have different opinions, but they have not given a credible answer.

Like the fortress, The Pale Hand is more than three hundred years old—almost the same age as the Innis Empire as she knows it. Some say that its true leader had a secret pact with the Imperial Family, and that the organization itself was established for the benefit of the Empire. This matched the plaque she had seen, but it was clear that it was questionable whether an institution that had been through hundreds of years would be able to maintain its original purpose.

It took five days to learn what she wanted to know. Then, how to get out of here smoothly became their next goal.

Yuffie wasn't going to wait until Wei Feng let them go—God knows how long it would take. On the other hand, Anya is also quite uneasy about "Pale Hands" not hesitating to make a big move and keep them here.

"If he's going to do something to the Alliance...... Anya twisted her hair worriedly, "I don't want to see everyone of the Demon Clan die in battle...... Of course, the people of the empire are the same. ”

"Don't worry." Lin comforted her easily, "It's just a stronghold of an underground organization, and it's not difficult to leave." ”

Their original plan was simple. Similar to the 'Prison Break' in the Oren Empire, Lynn manipulates animals to figure out the layout of the underground fortress and wait for Yu Feng to escape when he is not here. The members of the Tsuchibe were indeed well-trained, but Yuffie and Rin were sure enough to quickly render them incapacitated without harming each other's lives.

It's just that sometimes, unexpected changes always come earlier than planned.
