Chapter 212: Finding Monroe
Vincent hadn't eaten anything in the past few days since he disappeared, and he took the jerky given by Shu Yun and devoured it.
Cornelius squatted beside him, afraid that he would choke, so she kindly handed over the kettle, but Vincent glanced at her and immediately moved behind Shu Yungui.
"Why are you still in love in the wilderness?"
Vincent hid beside Shu Yungui, chewing on the jerky, while looking at Cornelys vigilantly, his cheeks bulging, and said, "Let me tell you, these homeless girls in the field can't be trusted, they are the best at lying, every time the bounty team goes out of the city to hunt for treasure, they can meet the homeless girls who take the initiative to come up and offer their courtesy."
He nunu mouthed, shook his head and said disdainfully: "It looks very pitiful, but in fact it is to defraud the supplies, you must not believe their words, it is better to drive her away quickly!"
Shu Yungui was so confused by what he said that the second monk was confused, and it took a while to understand that Vincent was talking about Cornelies, so he couldn't help but laugh and said, "You take a good look at who she is."
"Whoever she is, she's definitely here for supplies!"
Cornelies, listening to the conversation between the two bulls, couldn't help but step forward, put her face in front of Vincent, and said loudly, "You don't know me if I change my hairstyle?!"
Vincent was so frightened by her that he sat on the ground, his buttocks were on the rocks, and he was grinning in pain, and when he looked at it in a trance, he felt that the blonde girl in front of him looked a little familiar.
"Look stupid?"
Shu Yungui smiled and asked, "You haven't recognized it yet?"
"Kony?!"
Vincent's eyes widened like brass bells, and a mouthful of jerky slid down his esophagus with a "grunt" without chewing much, choking him to snatch the kettle from Cornelies' hand, and he poured half a pot in a row before finally relieving himself, and burped violently in the face of Cornelies' concerned expression.
"Why don't you pay attention to your image in front of girls?"
Shu Yungui teased: "A man is in his thirties, at least he can't look too naïve, right?"
Vincent glared at him, then turned to Cornelies, "What are you...... How did you get it? Are you a man or a woman?"
Cornelies, holding the wig in her hand, glanced at him and said, "You can continue to treat me as a man."
Vincent looked at Shu Yungui in embarrassment, Shu Yungui shrugged his shoulders and asked, "What, do you still have a special habit of not being able to walk with girls?"
"Huh? Not really."
Vincent blinked and said, "I just thought it was too sudden, how did she suddenly become a woman?"
Shu Yungui wiped the gun very calmly and said, "Either her camouflage skills are too good, or other people are too blind."
Vincent let out an "oh" and nibbled on the jerky as he mentally convinced himself that his brother had become a brother and sister.
After a while, he suddenly remembered something, and suddenly turned his head and asked Shu Yungui, "Then when did you know that she was a woman?"
Shu Yungui didn't answer his question, but changed the subject and asked, "What have you been doing in the past few days since you disappeared?"
Vincent's attention was instantly taken away by him, and he said in frustration: "Don't say it, I fell out of the window and fainted for a while, and when I woke up again, I was dragged into the nest by the mole orcs to make winter grain storage, so frightened that I quickly ran away, and after coming out of the hole, I met a group of homeless people, and they chased me for a day and a night."
"It's good to be alive, at least the bounty team can survive."
Vincent was stunned for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "Qi Yan and Harvey boss......
Shu Yungui shook his head, seeing that the baby-faced eyes in front of him instantly reddened, but he didn't cry, he just said in annoyance: "I knew that Boss Harvey would not give up, I should remind Qi Yan to pay attention to him, Qi Yan has always been an upright person, I promise you that he will never mean to harm you."
"What is harmful, people die and debts are eliminated, at this time, there is no need to worry about who instructed whom, and who obeyed whom."
Shu Yungui spread out the map and marked several highlands and depressions in and around the city of Coper according to the contour lines. Look at the book
"You
What is this doing?"
Vincent sniffed, leaned over and asked, "Is there anything special about these places?"
Shu Yungui glanced at him, Vincent had a wealth of experience as a guide, and perhaps knew something about the Monroe Observatory and the burial place of the power core, and it would be best if he was willing to go with him, provided that he couldn't hide evil intentions like the rest of the bounty team.
"As I said before, I still have business to do in the wilderness, and now I have to ask you again, do you want to go with me, or do you want to go back to the inner city by yourself?"
Vincent immediately raised his hands and promised, "Don't worry! I'm definitely not going to mess around! You let me go east, I dare not go west! Please, take me with you, I can't last three days alone in the wilderness!"
He is self-aware, and Wen Sen really didn't do anything bad along the way, and the impression left in Shu Yungui's heart was not bad, after thinking about it, Shu Yungui still decided to take him with him.
"I'm going to find a place called the Monroe Observatory, I don't know any of its geographical coordinates, but I know for sure that there must be a very large telescope there that is still functioning."
Vincent put his hands in two circles around his eyes and asked, "Is this an astronomical telescope?"
"No, it's just a telescope in the ordinary person's understanding, but I'm talking about an astronomical radio telescope that can emit signals from outer space, and the shape is more like a big bowl."
"Oh......"
Vincent nodded, thoughtful, "I seem to have seen that kind of thing on TV when I was a child, but that was before the orcs attacked, and I don't think you're very old, how would you know that there are such magical telescopes in the world?"
Shu Yungui said nonsense: "Because I know magic, I know astronomy and geography, and it is not a trivial matter for me to deduce the first five hundred years."
Vincent was stunned for a moment, and said with great admiration: "Then why don't you calculate where the Monroe Observatory is?"
He said it quite seriously, but Shu Yungui choked, and Cornelies laughed breathlessly.
Vincent touched his head in embarrassment and said stupidly, "What...... Am I saying something wrong?"
"No, maybe I should have figured out where the Monroe Observatory is."
Shu Yungui put the map into his backpack with a stiff expression, and redistributed the materials, and the three of them divided the things in Qi Yan and Harvey's backpacks and went into battle lightly.
"Do you go to Monroe Observatory or do you go to the power core first?"
Cornelys asked Shu Yungui.
"There's no way to know which one you can find first, right? Now we don't have any clues in our hands, so we can only follow those coordinates first, and as for what we can find first, it's all up to luck."
"Power core?"
Vincent, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around curiously and asked Cornelis, "This name is familiar, isn't it the power core on the immigration spaceship?"
Cornelys sprang to the front and asked urgently, "Have you heard of it?"
Vincent scratched his chin and looked up and recalled, "I don't remember very clearly, it was all from my father's time, he was a motor soldier in the army when he was young, and once on a mission, I heard that it was a behemoth dragged out of the ground, but I remember that the name he said was not the power core, but the ......."
He searched through his memories with difficulty, and finally remembered, "Ah! It's the heart of the Spell!"
"He also heard from others that there was a witch hidden in that thing, who could deceive people's minds, and the first people who came into contact with it were all crazy, and they killed people when they saw them, and kept shouting words like 'true gods' in their mouths, and then they were executed collectively by the king."
"It is said that there was a lot of trouble back then, and everyone else thought that the group was cursed by the witch's curse, so they called that thing the Cursed Heart."
Cornelies put her hands on the back of her chair and asked, "Do you know where the Enchanted Heart is buried?"
Vincent hissed, looking down at his knees
, trying to recall the details of being used by his father as a sleep story.
"I think he seemed to say...... It was considered ominous and needed to be suppressed with the sword of justice, he added...... That thing...... Buried beneath the breathless depths."
"Deep Sea?"
Corneerys was stunned suddenly, it was so hard to find on land, if she was abandoned into the deep sea, it would be really a needle in a haystack, and she would never want to find it back in her life.
This news made her a little depressed, and it seemed that her cousin's efforts for the people of the Ninth Star were about to fail.
She looked at Shu Yungui, but saw the man lowering his eyes, bending his finger against his lower lip, thinking, "Sword of Justice...... Under the deep sea where you can't breathe......"
A vague outline became clearer and clearer in front of his eyes, and in Shu Yungui's mind, there was only a layer of mist in the distance.
What is it?
So strange, yet so familiar.
"Can you think of more details?"
Corneerys reached out from behind and shook Vincent's shoulder, but it was too long ago, and Vincent's father had only casually told it once as a sleep-lulling story, and it was not easy for him to remember so many details.
"I really can't remember, my father just said it was a very uncomfortable mission because there were reeds everywhere and he was allergic to them."
City!
Shu Yungui's eyes suddenly lit up, and the outline in his mind finally cleared the mist and showed it clearly in front of him.
"Circumvent the mouth of the sea! Statue of the Holy Queen!"
The sword, the sea, the statue of the Holy Queen that cuts through all filth and evil, and the reed flowers that cover the earth.
Everything is completely consistent with the burial place mentioned by Vincent's father, and Shu Yungui is almost certain that the power core is hidden in the mouth of the reed!
At his suggestion, Cornelies and Vincent immediately felt that this place could not be more suitable, and the three of them hit it off and quickly drove towards the statue of the Holy Queen surrounding the mouth of the reed.
