Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Second Night

The location here is not far from a small stream about three kilometers from the previous battlefield. After the battle, everyone held on for another three kilometers in the twilight to avoid the smell of corpses and blood, lest the scavenging monsters attracted by corpses cause trouble to the newly built camp.

After washing away the blood and white insect bodily fluids on the surface of each carriage by the stream, as well as the dirt on their bodies, the young team members who had experienced such a bloody and protracted battle for the first time felt a little better in their stomachs and hearts, of course, only a little.

But soon the next problem arose, the chef in charge of the dinner was an ordinary person, who had not participated in today's battle and had been hiding safely in the carriage. After the battle, a couple of chefs were kind enough to make something delicious to supplement the body of the young men who were fighting hard, so they decided to boil a pot of thick broth, accompanied by a fragrant sticky meat sauce and fluffy white bread, such a delicacy for those who live in the wilderness is a delicacy that can hardly be dreamed of.

So, when dinner began, when the team members saw the light-colored pieces of meat tumbling in the milky broth, when the dark red meat sauce prepared with tomatoes was smeared on the baked bread until it was golden, most of the team members vomited very happily.

"Yes, I am a long-term writer, and I believe that they can. Pannis said sternly with a straight face. It was meal time, and today everyone did not set up camp, but the city guards and the four members of the adventure group sat together. Pannisy scooped up a spoonful of bolognese, artistically sketched a vivid figure on a large slice of bread, and handed the bread to the only remaining member of the team who was relatively nervous and did not vomit from dinner. The graphic is very similar, with layers of meat sauce piled up to form ravines, and the whole looks like a complete brain stained with blood, and between the ravines there is white grease slightly congealed by the cold. Make the brain look more realistic. So, the last survivor was also very moved to run and vomit, and when Erlan also smiled wryly to comfort and take care of the vomiting team members, the only place to eat was the adventure group with a pot of broth and a jar of meat sauce.

"You're getting worse and worse. Catherine cleverly caught the bread that the last survivor threw before rushing away, looked at the pattern on it, sneered, added a skull pattern to the outer layer of her brain with her small spoon, and dipped a fork in some soup to write Pannis's next to it, and then handed it to Lina beside her with satisfaction.

Lina took the bread and looked down at it. He looked up at Pannis, then looked down at the bread, then looked up at Pannis, and finally nodded thoughtfully, and then took a sharp bite, the bite force was so fierce that Pannis felt the corners of his eyes jump wildly.

"I'm just trying to treat them. Pannis touched his skull in horror to make sure that it had not been bitten off by Lina, and then firmly denied Catherine's accusation: "I just had good intentions. will secretly build yƬ chefs choose this set of dinners, obviously to reward everyone, how can it be said that it is a bad taste. Don't you see you're having fun eating?"

"Just because we're numb doesn't mean we like it. Catherine glared at Pannis. hugged Vivian and wiped the meat sauce on her face, during which Vivien did not react at all, and still stuffed bread into her mouth mechanically, no wonder she rubbed her face: "It's like the same table." Eat it in a brightly lit and fragrant restaurant with a fragrant music, and in a dark, damp, rancid dungeon, except for you, pervert. Nobody likes to eat in the back of the room, right?"

"I'm not a pervert. Pannis was very happy to drink the soup while holding the bowl, and said seriously: "I'm just exercising their endurance, let them get used to this environment as soon as possible is beneficial to their future development, in fact, I am a good person, hahahaha." ā€

"Laughing like an idiot. Lina rolled her eyes at Pannis: "Now let's get down to business, how will I explain to Freya later?"

"Speaking of Freya, I haven't asked you yet. Pannis asked strangely, "What's going on between you, why is the atmosphere suddenly different?"

"I remember saying that when she was with the three of us, she had a good relationship. Catherine explained: "At that time, everyone was like a family, playing together, fighting together, bleeding together, and being the closest comrades. But then she left suddenly, and when we met again yesterday morning, she had changed, looking like a good girl, and keeping her distance from us in words and deeds. Of course, we can also understand that after all, she is getting married, and she is likely to return to a calm and monotonous family life, and it is true that she can't be the same anymore, so we cooperate with her and keep a safe distance from her. Who would have thought that just now she suddenly became the same as before, giving us the feeling that the former Freya is back, and of course we are happy. ā€

"Then it's no wonder. Pannis suddenly realized: "No wonder I thought that her attitude towards you was always very false and contrived, it turns out that there is also this reason. ā€

"So you didn't like her before?" Catherine squinted at Pannis, smiling, "She secretly complained to me that you always hated her, and she still felt strange that she didn't know where she had provoked you, because of us?"

"Nonsense!" Pannis firmly denied: "I just think she is too scary to speak, and didn't Lina say it? ā€

"Let's make it up. Catherine ignored Pannis's lies and said to Lina, "I think it might be better to tell her the truth." Although she is sensitive and fragile, she always has the right to know the truth now. Moreover, as long as we don't sue her, we suspect that her future father-in-law is the mastermind, and it may not really cause harm to her. ā€

"But don't forget that we have promised Lord Odin to hide the truth from Freya. Lina retorted, "Wouldn't it be inappropriate to confess to her again?"

"It's different, and now she's pretty much the same. Catherine said: "When we agreed, we didn't expect the other party to do it so obviously and frequently, so since the situation has changed, we also have the right to change according to the change of the situation." What's more, it was the president who violated the rules first to hide some information from us, and it was he who broke the contract first, so we have no obligation to stick to our promises. ā€

"Well, won't that upset Odin?" Lina asked, "After all, he's the president." ā€

"What do you think is for someone like Odin who spoils his daughter. Pannis interjected: "Which is more lethal to upset him or his daughter." ā€

"Well, for good reason. Lina nodded, "I have no opinion, and I agree with the confession." ā€

"But before you confess, unify your mind. Catherine whispered, "Do you really think that the mastermind behind the scenes is the one opposite Kara?"

"Eldest sister, it seems that you also think there is a problem. Lina bit her lower lip lightly, her fingers unconsciously wrapping around her silver hair, which was her habitual action when she thought: "I don't think so." ā€

"Why?" asked Catherine, "what is your reason for thinking so? ā€

"Although judging from the enemy's profession at the time of these two attacks, they are all rare professions, and there may be other rare professions in the back. Indeed, Kara is the most likely person to quietly transfer these professions, and he is very suspicious of this. Lina said, "But as Freya said, if Kara doesn't agree, she doesn't need to take Wesker to propose, which is contradictory from that point of view. ā€

"Anything else?" Catherine asked with a frown, "Other reasons." ā€

"Also, Kara's identity. Lina said, "Kara's identity is like Odin's, and he is not allowed to command his subordinates to attack the target at will, because this is likely to lead to the expansion of the problem." Even if he hires others to attack us in private, like Odin, don't forget, they are mercenaries, and all teams are very large, the smallest is a team of hundreds of people, it is difficult to keep it strictly secret, and there is no large team to surround us now. Judging from the current situation, the people who came to attack us are more like some scattered elites, not members of the mercenary group, so it is not like the practice of the president of the mercenary guild. ā€

"Actually, there is one more important doubt. Pannis lowered his voice and said, "Is this kind of attack really the level of planning that a demigod should have?"

"What do you mean?" Catherine asked, stunned.

"You're underestimating the vision of a demigod. Pannis pursed his lips, with some inexplicable mockery in his tone: "A demigod with a normal brain would not send someone who seems to be 'maybe' able to carry out an important task like he is now." If this is really a demigod's plan, what will appear in front of us will only be the legendary level that crushes all of us, and maybe even the two together, to ensure that the 'absolutely' can succeed. As for the situation we are encountering now, it is actually similar to a child's play, and it is not at all like the plan that a normal demigod should have. ā€

"Is that so?" Catherine and Lina looked down at the same time and pondered for a moment, Catherine said, "We haven't seen any other demigods except for the Guild and Master Antoine, so we can't tell, but from the feeling, what you said should be right." In that case, it should indeed be someone else who is plotting, who could it be?"

"Perhaps, I vaguely guessed a little. Pannis smiled bitterly: "But it's still unfounded, I'll tell you when I have a basis." ā€

"Okay, let's go, go confess. Catherine put down the empty bowl in her hand, stood up and said, "Unified voice, we just don't know who is behind the scenes." ā€
