Chapter Seventy-One: A Pre-War Review
That same evening.
Ryan and Ann return to Jadel's mansion and begin to review with Althea, who also returned from Sandor.
Ryan was the first to speak out about the information they had obtained through their investigation today, and self-criticized himself and Ann's actions.
After killing the two mages, he and Ann went to the place where the mage provided information to prepare to "step on the spot", and the result was that there was indeed a building in that place, but its interior was completely different from the scene in the underground warehouse of the "Golden Arowana" fish shop.
The interior of the building looks exceptionally clean, not only is there not a single corpse of a fishman or any traces left by the research, but it is also empty!
"It looks like an ordinary villa with a sea view."
"It's my fault, if only I hadn't been in a hurry."
Ryan always believes that only the weak will try to make excuses for themselves after making mistakes.
It's okay to make mistakes.
Turning a deaf ear and pretending to turn a blind eye and not dare to face it head-on is the most terrible thing.
So Ryan confronted his mistake and said that he had done a very poor job in this matter.
But he didn't expect that after this, Althea immediately gave him an unexpected and explosive news.
The attack of the Sawa fish will be set for the evening in three days' time!
"I went into the sea and I went into separate operations with Sandor, and I found out about this near an undersea beach." Althea described what she had encountered in the simplest language.
She said it briefly, and every word was directed at Ryan's concerns, but in fact the whole thing was not as easy as she said. At that time, there were hundreds of Sawfishmen gathered, and the place where she was hiding was only a rock away from the Sawfishers, if she was a little careless and was discovered by the Sawfishmen, I'm afraid she wouldn't be sitting here and reviewing with Ryan now.
But Althea didn't want to say this, since it had happened, there was no point in saying it, and what she really wanted was to let Ryan know that he was worthy of his trust, not to make him worry about herself.
Another important point is also important.
What if Ryan realizes that his arrangement is too dangerous and doesn't arrange a similar job for himself in the future.
It's terrible to think about!
Althea thinks that although she was really nervous at the time, afraid of being torn to shreds by the Sawa Fish, in retrospect, she thinks she liked the tension and excitement.
Moreover.
If everything goes smoothly and there are no waves.
How can this be considered an adventure?
"Ryan, it's not your fault for this matter," after talking about the situation on her side, Aithea turned her head to comfort her childhood sweetheart and said, "I think there must be something else hidden in this matter." ”
Althea wants to tell Ryan not to dwell in the shadow of the mistakes she made, and she wants Ryan to get back on her feet, because this is the Ryan she knew.
And she is also very satisfied with the role she is playing now.
In the past, Ryan comforted and told herself what to do, but now she can finally comfort the other party as Ryan did to her in the past.
In Athea's opinion, since she is a childhood sweetheart who grew up with Ryan, then Ryan should not be the only one to pay.
She can also do what Ryan did to herself, helping the other person when she feels frustrated.
But what Althea didn't expect was that at this moment, Ryan not only didn't have any thoughts of decadence, but wanted to give herself a big hug.
Because at this moment, Ryan finally understood everything completely!
It's a pity that since Ann is still around, En has no way to take action, so he has to say: "You're right, Athea, there was no reason for the mage to tell a lie in that situation. ”
As he spoke, Ryan shook his head and said, "I told Orpheus to believe in himself so that he would be able to do what I told him to do, but in the end, I couldn't do it myself. ”
Hearing this, Althea couldn't help but hesitate slightly, she didn't understand what Ryan meant by this, and just as she was thinking about whether to continue to enlighten Ryan, she suddenly saw the other party stretching out a hand towards her, "Althea, Ann has promised me, and now I will send you." ”
"Promise you...... What? ”
Althea couldn't help but blink strangely.
"Of course, it's to get rid of Nansen and his mage apprentice," Ryan said with a smile, "It's not enough for me and Encore to do this, so I need you to join me." ”
"But didn't you just say that there wasn't a lot of people there, and that the building was a bit like ...... Villas with sea views? ”
Althea asked.
"That's right, he's really not in that place now, Nansen's experiment to cultivate the 'Faqu Creature' has been successful, of course there is no reason for him to stay there, and of course there can't be any traces of the experiment there, but he and his mage apprentice will definitely come back when the Shahua Fishman attacks the town in three days," Ryan smiled confidently, "Nansen contributed to the whole incident, and for a person like him, There's nothing more enjoyable than going back to the place where it was done and watching the excitement. ”
Althea thought about it carefully, and felt that the logic did fit perfectly, so she said that she was happy to participate in the battle and put her hand on the back of her childhood friend's hand.
And at this moment, Ann's mood was completely perked, so she also learned their movements and stretched out her hand.
"Now Orpheus is doing his job with enthusiasm, and with the right time to attack, I believe that both the town side and the Sandor side can handle the affairs of the Sawah Fishman perfectly," Ryan looked into the eyes of the two girls, "As for us, maybe Nansen's strength is stronger than any of us, and maybe his mage apprentice will also cause us a lot of trouble, but I always believe that as long as you and I are together, we will definitely be able to do it." ”
Althea and Ann couldn't help but be very encouraged when they heard this, and they said that they would definitely do their best to teach each other a lesson.
"Alright, it's time for us to tell the Baron the news," Ryan couldn't help but be happy to see the two girls fighting spirits, "he shouldn't have slept yet." ”
But just as Ryan finished speaking, an unexpected face suddenly pushed open the door.
"I don't know how to describe how I'm feeling right now, anyway...... You'd better come with me right now. ”
