Session 2: Dining with Friends (Part I)
Session 2: Dining with Friends (Part I
In the dark night sky, a faint red light appeared on the horizon, condensed upward, and did not disperse for a long time. It is like the delicate red on the face of the young nv, slowly swaying in the clouds, and like a drop of cinnabar falling from the water, slowly soaking away. Suddenly, the monotonous night sky became more beautiful and colorful, and the cold night breeze weakened a little chill.
The cold night wind was one of the hardest things to endure for those who had been lying in ambush in the valley all night, but they would do whatever it took to get warmer, but there was no way to drive them away from the cold except for those movements that would ruin their whereabouts. Therefore, when the warm tones of the sky appeared, those who were hidden in the mountains and forests became a little soothed.
There are a lot of people here, and they are distributed in different densities, within a radius of more than ten miles.
These men wore two different insignia, with strange huā tattoos on them, which had never been seen on the West Coast. But in fact, they are the people of Yintao City, and they belong to the Senate and the Political Affairs Department, which are the two major forces of the Silver Sè Coast, which is a rare situation in recent years.
This place is more than 100 miles away from Yintao City, it is a southwesterly, close to the coast, not too steep mountain area, because there is no trade route, so there is no city and garrison, and the only few hunting villages are also twenty miles below the mountain. Normally, it's fine, and no one will come here to blow the wind.
The big action in which so many people participated, of course, had its purpose. Because the exact information that came before said that the person that Prince Pfister was looking for with all his might might have haunted the area.
I heard that the person the prince was looking for was a master of supernatural abilities, and this goal was not xiǎo, but the two major forces sent a large number of people to look elsewhere for most of the day, but they did not find any clues. Therefore, after receiving this kind of report, the investigators couldn't help but be overjoyed, and immediately scattered their hands around, and sure enough, they found a strange behavior of a strange master more than sixty miles away from Yintao City.
Upon closer scrutiny, they discovered that the target was not a Master of Abilities, but a middle-aged ordinary Abilitymaster of a modest rank - but strangely, he had stayed where he had been found all afternoon, as if he had made an appointment to meet someone. Someone was sent here to provoke him by pretending to be a ruffian, and he even swallowed his anger and refused to show his identity as a paranormal master.
So sneaky, there must be a plan When they received a detailed report, the two major forces decided to increase their efforts to clarify the truth. It was not easy, and they even had to divide a large number of men to "stick" the prince's men.
The effort paid off, and after expanding the scope of their investigation, they found a medium-sized ocean-going vessel on the other side of the mountain, that is, on the coast. The inland ship was hidden in a mangrove forest all along, without any identifying flags, and was only guarded by two Anomalous Masters of unknown rank, but they never disembarked, apparently to wait or pick up someone.
This is where the matter comes in......
Landing on a remote coast more than 100 miles away from the target city, and then returning by boat after the event is done, it is a very reasonable choice for the Anomalous Master, and those rolling mountains can't stop their tracks, but they can stop the pursuers, but what the hell is he running to close to Silvertao City?
Not entering the city means that he has no intention of making contact with the Anomalous Master Guild, or even with the local forces - for the Senate and the Government Office, no matter what purpose these Anomalies have in reaching Yintao City, they should not hide themselves. On the other hand, if he is hiding something, it means that what he is going to do is not good for him.
As a political force that has been flourishing for a long time, they must turn unfavorable things into advantages.
Fortunately, there is only one person on the other side, and you can send someone to test his level first, and if you are not sure, you can pay to buy and please; if you are sure, you can be reasonable, and if the reason does not make sense, it is also good to move your hands and feet. You must know that the Senate and the Government Department not only control the gangsters, but also control the Anomalous Division
They have a special kind of anomaly, these people are not registered with the Anomalous Divisions Guild, commonly known as "black households", and officially called "folk anomalous masters".
In fact, in the entire continent, some families and forces will secretly cultivate anomaly, and the benefits of self-cultivation are obvious, because this is a hidden power, it is difficult for others to evaluate their own virtual reality, so it can create an invisible deterrent. However, the disadvantages are also obvious: if you want to keep it secret, the cultivation process will consume a lot of jing energy and wealth, and if you don't say anything else, it will be difficult to find a mentor.
It took decades of hard work and a lot of wealth for the two major forces of the Silver Sè Coast to produce this batch of treasure bumps, and the huā fee was more than three times that of the guild ability master
The number of these black family ability divisions is not small, and the level is mostly in the second and third poles, and the two fourth-level ability divisions are positive and negative leaders, and their combat power can be called luxurious. It can be said that they are the sharp forces of the two major forces, and they are one of the killer weapons that are ready to tear their faces with the prince in the end. Baby, I usually don't want to take it out and use it.
Now for the sake of another Anomala, they are in action. Of course, the premise of their dispatch was that the Psychic Guild had decided to hold an all-night meeting, and all official Anomalists had to attend. This means that even if they make a fuss outside, they are not afraid that they will encounter the interference of the anomalies of the West Coast chapter...... It's a great opportunity
A battalion of swordsmen, a patrol battalion, several teams of assassin killers, and an entire team of black anomalies soon lay in ambush on the path to the return of the target. Their strength is enough to leave an orthodox level 4 ability division - a level 5 or higher ability master is very rare, as a high-end sign, they can fly, and the target is still climbing mountains and mountains, so he must be below level 5.
In fact, the commander of the two major forces is gambling, and he bets that the target will definitely return to the ship tonight, according to this regular route. To be fair, the rate is relatively large, and after dark, the exciting good news keeps coming back. On the other hand, it is reassuring to note that, until this time, the prince's subordinates were still bumping into them like headless flies
"The target is in action - he's packing up"
"The target has moved - he's going to go back"
"The target keeps moving - the right route"
In the dreary waiting, as the distant blush rose into the sky, the slow-moving target finally entered the ambusher's field of vision. The dim light of the stars and moon could not illuminate the path in the eyes of ordinary people, but the senses of the anomalies were extremely developed, and in terms of vision, there was not much difference between day and darkness, and they walked at night, as leisurely as a leisurely stroll.
Yes, he was a middle-aged man, and the wide traveler's robe concealed the Anomalous robe underneath. Judging from the way he walks and the speed at which he walks, his level is not too high, and he should not be good at elemental and animal types, because these two types of abilities have either a blessing ability that increases speed, or a summoned beast that can walk.
He walked into the ambush circle step by step, and there were no accidents in the intermittent moment, the outer encirclement had been sealed, the only road was blocked, and after the signal came back, the joint commander knew that the time had come for him to make meritorious contributions.
In the deserted mountain col, a warm flame burst out, and the gradually intense red sè light illuminated the xiǎo road, and also illuminated a young nv in a silver-white sè robe. The flames jumped in the palm of her hand, tame and well-behaved like a xiǎo pet.
The middle-aged man stopped, as if waiting for the NV to speak, but his gaze was still lowered. What's even stranger is that no matter what angle and light he is, as long as he doesn't look up, others can't see his face clearly, and they can't recognize who he really is.
"The long night is lonely, O traveler who walks with me, do you need a beam of light to accompany you?" the NV Anomaly slowly spoke with a flame in his hand, his tone was calm, full of + passion Youhuo: "She is warm and can go straight to the dry heart. ”
"I don't need light," the middle-aged man replied in a dry voice, "I just need you to get out of the way." ”
"Traveler who is traveling with me, isn't this road wide enough?" The corners of the NV Ability's mouth overflowed, his eyes flashed, and the whole person became enchanting: "Or, the path in your heart can't be paralleled by two people?"
"Because there's a smell in your perfume. The middle-aged man's dry voice rose again: "That's the taste of poverty." ”
The smile froze on the face of the NV Anomala, even the Anomalist couldn't keep a normal heart under such mean words, right? The flames exploded in the palm of her hand with a "poof", turning into twelve fire points and falling on the ground, turning into high flames in an instant, illuminating a large area of the ground around her.
"I call you a fellow traveler," said the snub NV Anomalist, "according to etiquette, how do you respond to me?"
"I really have to think about how you didn't show your Anomalous badge before this uneventful formal greeting. This is clearly contrary to the etiquette of the Anomalous Master Guild. The middle-aged man tapped his finger on his forehead, as if thinking about his own words.
"You wear a gorgeous robe, but you don't understand the principle of matching, you have a jewel on your head, but you don't understand the meaning of a jewel...... You exude an unpleasant smell, and you have a dàng on your face, like a vulgar, blooming single sèhuā, or, should I call you ......*子?"
The flames on the ground of the "fire stamen" "whirred" burst out, drawing a bright light mark and heading towards the middle-aged man's face
The middle-aged man waved his hand casually, and this first-level elemental ability dissipated in the night sky, and the flames disappeared suddenly, and the light marks it dragged out in the night sè had not had time to dissipate, as if it had flown into another time and space.
"Stop" The calm shout interrupted the second cluster of flames, and a strong ability master came out of the darkness, he was very bold, and his face was full of smiles: "Lilith, you can't beat him, don't bother with that, let me talk to him"
―――――― the following does not count as a word count
Yesterday, a reader left a message, speaking of the first few verses of the third episode, xiǎo Ming had something to do at that time and couldn't reply, considering that there may be other readers who have the same question, so I decided to answer it after the chapter:
These verses tell the story of Harvey from another level.
Auston and Wenli are important figures, and although they were not present at Harvey, they still have various connections...... Like Townsend, the Harvey affair changed them, and that's where their path and their extraordinary achievements began.
Why write about other dimensions of the Harvey affair?
Because the Harvey incident directly changed the protagonist and gave the protagonist a goal. At the same time, the Harvey incident runs through all levels and is a major event in the main plot.
Why write about these two?
Auston was third or fourth in the male sè......
Needless to say, Wen Li's ranking is ......
In terms of online reading, some readers may be more eager to see Townsend's experience and response...... This is the feedback I received after the previous episodes of xiǎo came out. Indeed, the location in which this episode appears does not seem to be the most appropriate at the moment. But at the time of writing, I didn't know much about it, so I didn't know much about this reading need.
This problem made me think about it for a long time, so I put a lot of effort into finding a solution. If you were in a similar situation now, you would be able to get the best of both worlds. So, this will decrease later.
Finally, to say a word from the heart, as an author, I like this episode very much, Auston's encounter, Wen Lixiǎo's response, very jingcai
So, even if you have already seen it, I still recommend going back and looking back again - Sister Wen Li Xiǎo is a great beauty, but her status is not earned by her face
