Chapter 506: Action (I)
"What?" the voice inside seemed to be completely unaware.
"There's also a seven-man squad that I've seen before, and it feels like a well-trained army. Don't say you don't know ...... How can someone you don't know do everything they can to save you, even if there are many of these alchemists. Since he couldn't see the other party's appearance, Sean could only ask tentatively.
Occam inside paused for a moment.
"I can't really remember who it could be, it could be Marshal Owen's man, or it could be the secret organization of the royal family...... Maybe it's people from other countries, and a lot of people know about me, unless they see people!"
Seeing that the alchemists around him were looking at him curiously, Sean had no choice but to reply.
"Okay, I'll take care of it. ”
After that, he returned to the front of the line.
..................
The town of Kimo River is indeed full of water, and the stagnant water that flows from the nearby marshes surrounds the town all year round, and basically does not flow out unless it is evaporated.
As a result, the land around the town is more or less waterlogged, like a wetland...... It's not too deep, but you can see a moist green area in front of you, a lot of stagnant water and small bubbles, and you can see the bones of dead or discarded animals and some dead fish floating up.
"This place looks lifeless. Walking on the road, Sean said, looking at the surrounding scene.
"Actually, the town is very lively, it's just that the swamp makes the outside of the Kimo River look like this, and that's how we used to feel when we first came here, but this swamp is a treasure for the local residents, not only the fish and swamp beasts in the swamp, but also some botanical herbs are often purchased by alchemists. Rorschach on the side said.
Lewis City is a coastal city, not as much vegetation as a mountain city, and even most of the way along the way is flat meadows and pastures, and being able to appear in the middle of Lewis City and Dì Dū does provide a lot of natural resources.
Shade-loving vegetation in the rain, or frogs and crocodiles in swamps, are among the ingredients for alchemists' special potions.
"So this town is very rich?"
"It's okay, but because of the swamp, the town can't expand, and if you leave the town to live somewhere else, there's no such a good place to make money. Rorschach said helplessly.
"Isn't it useless to make money?" The girl who walked in the middle of the three finally lost her sleepiness in this cold weather.
Although she is only five or six years old, Lucille is very sensitive when it comes to making money, after all, when she was working on a cargo ship, she could buy some clothes and snacks every month with that little pocket money......
"No, these people are much smarter than you think, even if you go to the city to enjoy it, you won't forget the work here, part of the work is given to the workers!"
That's probably why a wealthy town looks as dilapidated as its deep mountain town.
As he walked towards the town, Sean still consciously glanced behind him......
The seven hadn't shown up yet, but they were supposed to be in the back.
If you don't even make a move in this place, you won't have a chance to make a move when you reach Dì Dū's jurisdiction.
Upon entering the town of Kimo, Rorschach and Ricky were busy sending people around to ask if there was an inn for 200 people, whether it was okay to have three or four rooms that were not so continuous, but the answer was no, some could accommodate more than thirty people but it was too far away to make sense, and finally the team decided to rent a clearing near the edge of the swamp to set up camp.
Anyway, most of the past few days have been like this, and Sean and Lucille are used to it.
It was getting late and late, and when he saw that everyone was starting to set up camp, Sean began to record the route around him, and began to plan his rescue plan in his heart, looking at the swamp deep in the waterhole......
Blackwater.
Swamp......
There are also cloudy days in this area, and Sean constantly sketches the appearance of various plots in his head.
But first of all, I still have to send a message to those people to get ready to act tonight, preferably later, so that they don't consume too much mana when casting their spells.
"Mentor, mentor ......"
Before it was dark in the evening, Lucille had just returned from buying some of her favorite dried fruits from the town to give some to Sean.
"Did you just go shopping?"
"Well, the town is still really bustling, it's old but there's everything...... There's more variety than any other town I've been to before. "Lucille used to work on ships, so I guess I walked a little way through the harbor when I docked, and I didn't go anywhere, so of course Sean wouldn't take this kind of thing to heart.
"Mentor, what are you doing sitting here? It's almost time to eat. The white little palm tore open the skin and finally placed the flesh in Sean's palm.
"Look at ......"
"See?"
"Well, this area is very humid, and there are probably all kinds of animals living in the swamp on the other side, and I'm observing if there are any magical beasts. Sean just said something casually, but it was carefully written down by Lucille.
"Shall we go and find out?"
"It's late, and I don't think there's anything good...... Next time!"
Pat the other person on the head.
Just then, a raven flew out of the swampy woodland.
The sun had almost set before the Saroyan and the others hurried to the town of the Kimo River, where the red-eyed ravens had been perched at the entrance to the town.
"You're finally here?"
Several people [surprised!] raised their heads, only to find that the black crow that only revealed a pair of red eyes in the dark night was staying on the wooden card.
"Your Excellency?"
"Didn't I tell you to let you move here?" Sean's body was around the tent at the moment, and he didn't have much time to talk or beat around the bush.
At this time, Saroyan suddenly looked at the team members behind him, because everyone had already told everyone about it......
"You are the wizard who wants to help us, but how can we trust you. ”
"You don't have what it takes to save Occam!"
On weekdays, Sean does like to play dumb riddles, but this kind of people outside are waiting for him to go around the bend with him, which makes people angry.
"Remember, I only said it once, when the fog lifted, you went into the camp on the north side of the town and got ready...... The carriage in which Occam is being held will be marked, so you can take him with you and leave your way to a blacksmith shop in the south of town, where someone will pick you up. Sean said.
The raven's eyes then changed back to their normal color.
Ah~
With a whoop, he flew out of town......
