Chapter 14: Raphael's Plan
Elendor pointed to the two men who had been knocked down by himself and Ryan, and said to the waitress sitting on the ground, "What's going on?
The waitress covered her face with her hands and whimpered in a low voice, deaf to Alendo's words.Ryan comforted her, "Don't cry, you are safe now, can you tell us, your name?"
The waitress slowly raised her head, and she said to Ryan and Elendo, "My name is Susanne. ”
Ryan continued to comfort her, saying, "That's a good name. Suzanee, why are you still walking around so late?"
The waitress Su Shanni whimpered a few words, and said slowly: "Today in the Mercenary Guild, you taught the group of bastards in the bloody hands a hard lesson, they couldn't beat you, so they came to me for trouble, fortunately I was clever and ran away in advance, they didn't find me when they went to my house, but I didn't expect to be discovered by them here...... If I hadn't met you, I'd be finished. ”
Alendor snorted and said, "It's this group of guys again, it seems that the lesson given to them today is not enough." Ryan thought for a moment and asked Susanne, "Could it be that the Bloody Hand Mercenary Regiment is so rampant in Seker City that no one cares?"
Suzanne replied, "The Bloody Hand Mercenary Regiment is outnumbered, and they have spent a lot of gold here, and the rulers of Seker City basically have a share, so who cares if we live or die?"
"What about Ignaz?" Ryan asked, "What kind of redcoat does he look like?"
"He?" Su Shanni smiled contemptuously: "It's just a self-righteous aristocratic kid, who only knows how to catch stupid thieves who don't have any backing, if it weren't for the fact that his family still has some power, he would have been dead on the streets a long time ago." ”
"Oh, I didn't know so much about it. Allendo said suddenly.
"Ah," Suzanee's face changed, then returned to normal, her eyes rolled and she explained, "I'm in the Mercenary Guild, and I usually hear a lot of these things. ”
"Okay, let's not talk about that. Ryan said, "Let's go find a place to rest first, and tomorrow we'll go to the headquarters of the Bloody Mercenary Regiment." ”
"Huh?" Suzanne was taken aback: "Why?"
Ryan wondered, "Do you want to let the Bloody Hand Mercenary Regiment run rampant? Of course we have to teach them a good lesson! Okay, you get up quickly, let's go out of the city." ”
Suzanne sat on the ground, staggering for a long time before slowly standing up, she tidied up her clothes, and timidly followed Alendor and Ryan out of here.
A moment later, a man in black appeared where Su Shanni was sitting, he was half-crouching on the ground and groping for a while, and suddenly stood up, obviously knowing something amazing, the man in black rubbed his foot on the ground a few times, and then quickly disappeared into the shadows.
Ryan and Alendor took Suzanne out of town, and found a random shelter from the wind, and Alendor walked around, picked up some dry branches, and lit a roaring bonfire. Ryan took three blankets out of his storage pocket and divided them between Alendor and Susanne, leaving the best spot for Susanne.
After a few moments, the three of them fell asleep.
After a long time, Suzanne opened her eyes, and she quietly looked at Alendo, who was sitting about seven or eight meters away from her, leaning against a large tree, whose chest rose and fell gently, and her breathing was slow and even, apparently asleep. Suzanne slowly turned her neck, lest she make a little noise, and with great effort she turned her face to Ryan, who was sitting on the other side, and Ryan had already fallen into a sweet sleep.
Suzanne slowly put the blanket on her body on the ground, and then stood up little by little, she held her breath, tiptoed towards Ryan, this seems to be a huge and arduous project, Suzanne is like a puppet manipulated by someone, moving towards Ryan extremely slowly, if someone passes by here, maybe think Suzanne is just a stone statue.
Even in the cold night, Susanne's forehead was sweating, seeing that she was about to walk to the side of the magician Ryan, Suzanne was secretly happy, she slowly stretched out her hands, because of the reason that her back was to the bonfire, Susanne's shadow on the ground dragged for a long time, so long, like a soul out of hell.
At this moment, Ryan's voice sounded: "It's so late, why don't you rest?" Su Shanni's body stiffened, and she looked at Ryan who was in front of her, and opened her eyes, looking at herself with a smile on her face. Su Shanni rolled her eyes and said quietly: "People want to go to make it convenient." ”
Ryan said disapprerovingly, "I'm the upper hand here, so it seems that I should go in that direction, right?" After speaking, Ryan pointed behind Suzanne.
"Ah, ah, I made a mistake. Suzanne turned around and walked downwind.
Ryan sat there watching Susanne's back, he opened his right hand, and a small flame in his palm beat happily.
Su Shanni went for a long time this time, and it took a long time before she slowly walked back. She saw that Ryan closed his eyes and seemed to fall asleep again, while Alendor kept his original position and didn't seem to wake up, but unfortunately Suzanne was already a frightened bird, she walked back to her resting place in a few steps, sat down, and then picked up the blanket and covered her body, and soon fell asleep.
Alendor opened his eyes, he looked at Suzanee, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and Ryan, who was in the other direction, also opened his eyes as if he had a heart, and the two looked at each other and smiled knowingly.
It was late at night, and the only sound in the quiet wilderness was the crackling of burning matches.
The next morning, Suzanne smelled a smell of meat in her sleep, she slowly opened her eyes, not far away, Ryan was roasting a washed and skinned antelope on the bonfire, seeing Suzanne wake up, Ryan smiled at her, and said, "It's about to be roasted, come here." ”
Suzanne rubbed her eyes, then pulled back the blanket covering her body, stood up, a bright smile appeared on her face, and said in a gentle voice as she walked: "Thank you so much, this smell is good, I am really looking forward to it." ”
Everyone had a tacit understanding that they didn't talk about last night's incident, as if it hadn't happened at all, and when breakfast was finished, Alendor casually extinguished the bonfire and said to Suzanee: "I think you must know the address of the headquarters of the Bloody Hand Mercenary Regiment in Seker City, so let's go." ”
Su Shanni's face showed a look of fear, and she hesitated and said, "Why don't we go?"
Ryan said disapprerovingly: "What are you afraid of, is there anyone who is not necessarily?"
Su Shanni's face changed, her pupils began to contract, she looked at Ryan's face, the latter's face was as usual, it didn't seem to have any special meaning, Su Shanni didn't know what Ryan meant when she said this, she didn't dare to say anything more, so she just nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you there." ”
