Chapter 91: Diversion 1

Without the influence of the altar, everything returned to the truth, but fortunately, the quality of the underground buildings here is absolutely excellent, and there is no human destruction, so Gehr was finally not blocked underground.

By the time Gehr returned to the surface along the dilapidated tunnels, the sun had already peeked out from the treetops in the east, and the warm sunlight had sprinkled over the woodland and onto the clearing where the castle ruins were located, staining everything golden.

As soon as it touched the sun, the thick fog that had been left in the surrounding area was like snowflakes that met hot water, and it melted away at a speed visible to the naked eye, and soon there was no trace of it.

The exit to the tunnel is a clearing at the edge of the clearing, which is covered with thick stone slabs, and as long as it is not opened, it is indistinguishable from the appearance on one side of the ground.

At this time, Gehr saw Clemi crawling out of a ruin not far away. He leaned against the crumbling wall, staggered a little, and looked a little unkempt, thinking that he would not have a good night.

"How are you, Klemmie?" said Gehr as he walked over and grabbed Clemmie's shoulder.

"My lord?" Clemi looked up, a large lump above his right eye, as if it had struck something else, squeezing his right eye to a slit. "My lord, let's go, this place is weird. There will be a sudden fog, you can't see anything clearly, you can't get out, and then a white shadow leads you to a castle room, but when you enter, you can't see the door, you can't get out at all......" After seeing clearly with his left eye that it was Gehr in front of him, Clemi's emotions suddenly became excited.

"Don't worry, it's been solved, there's nothing to do. Gehr said in a deep voice.

"Is there anything going on?" Clemi stared at Gehr in a daze.

"yes, it's fine. The affirmation in Geer's tone was a little more aggravated.

After staring at Gehr for a while, and confirming Gehr's seriousness, Klemi slowly relaxed.

"It's good if there's nothing to do, it's good if there's nothing to do......" Clemi's murmur became lower and lower after he was relieved, and finally it turned into a low snoring sound, and he fell asleep.

It seems that this experienced warrior was not lightly subjected to mental pressure in that strange environment last night.

At this time, the sound of horses' hooves was heard at the entrance to the castle ruins.

Gehr looked around, and the figures of the rest of his companions emerged little by little from the horizon at the end of the field of vision......

......

"No news yet?" said Cordre, standing by the window of his room on the second floor of the inn, observing the scene outside.

It was a single room, with only a wooden bed, a table and chairs, and a bouquet of white flowers that had dried up a little in a vase.

The windows were open, and the dark curtains were blown by the wind.

Outside the window, the street is bustling with activity, with more than a dozen white stone huts scattered on both sides of the street, and various wooden signs with names hanging in the corners of the houses.

This is the most lively market in Philemos, not only there are local specialties to buy and sell, there are many strange things, more is a variety of stolen goods can also be blatantly sold, the owner of the robbed goods here to find the robbed goods is a common thing. However, with the joint suppression of the great bandit bands and the acquiescence of the local authorities, coupled with the cooperation of some big businessmen, this kind of market has always existed, and it has brought a steady stream of benefits to all parties.

The stone houses are about the same size as ordinary shops, and there is a constant stream of people entering and exiting the doors, and the streets are crowded with people, which is a strange and prosperous scene.

"Not yet. Now the head of Fimien's shadow has taken our list, they are the largest intelligence trafficking organization in Fimus, as long as the target enters the territory of Fimus, it will definitely not escape their eyes. Nรฎmes, draped in a gray robe over his armor, stood behind Cordray, as respectful as ever.

For Nim's answer, Kodre actually knows very well in his heart, he has heard it several times these days, but there has been no news for so many days, this situation makes him have no bottom in his heart, anxiety and urgency are growing day by day, and the problem just now is just subconsciously finding someone who agrees with his choice.

"Should we go back?" said after a moment's hesitation.

Nimes remained silent, knowing Cordray well that he didn't need anything to say at this time.

Sure enough, after a short time, Cordray continued to speak: "No, it's all come to this point, you must not just give up, Nimes, you go to a few more contacts of the thieves now, and ask them to increase the intensity of the search, as long as there is definite information, the reward will be doubled." โ€

Now that Cordray has no way out, he has privately mobilized the strength of the family to act, and has given up the position that the family has won for him, if he is not able to succeed in killing Gehr, then because of the loss he has brought to the family, his heir position will definitely not be able to be kept, and he may even be banished from the family.

"Very good, young master. โ€

Nimes should be, and exited the room.

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Cordray didn't have any expression, his eyes were a little scattered as he looked at the street outside the window, and his right hand gripped the curtain hard, grasping and slowly stirring it......

Dodo-do......

There was a sharp knock on the door.

"Who?!" Cordray yelled, turning in the direction of the door.

"It's me, young master. "From outside the door came the voice of Nimes.

"Come in. Cordray's voice was filled with irrepressible excitement, knowing that Kordonim had just left, and now he had suddenly returned, and it was clear that something important had happened.

Nimes walked in, the look of surprise on his face giving Cordray infinite anticipation.

In the expectant gaze of Cordray, Nim gave him a satisfactory answer as he expected: "Young Master, the Eta Regiment has captured a person, who is the target's cronies. โ€

"Where's the people?" asked Cordray impatiently.

"I just handed over the people of the ETA regiment, and now I have taken it to the basement, and I haven't had time to interrogate it yet. โ€

"Take me there. โ€

"Yes. โ€

Led by Nimes, the two hurried out of the room and into the hidden basement through a secret door behind the kitchen.

The nearly empty stone chamber was small, originally built as a cellar for storing supplies, illuminated by an oil lamp on the wall.

In the middle of the stone chamber was a high-backed chair, facing the doorway, on which a male was tied and his head hung down.

The moment the stone door was pushed open and Nimes and Kodlay stepped into the stone chamber, the male raised his head. Facing the light leaking through the doorway, the man's face was clearly visible, and it was none other than Gehr's subordinate, Con Dewitt.

......

"There is no way to go back the way you came, the fissure created by the earthquake is in a circle centered here, and only the section to the northeast is not closed......"

Gehr drew an irregular circle on the map, pointing his finger at the gap in the upper left corner and introducing it to several other partners.

After the group converged, because the Brian brothers were all injured to varying degrees, and Lucarine and Iona were not suitable, the investigation work was directly undertaken by Gehr.

In the afternoon, Gehr brought the latest information from the reconnaissance and discussed the route with everyone.

"My lord, if we go in this direction, we will drift further and further away from the original route, directly into the Mostington grassland on the other side of the forest, in this case I suggest that we go directly to the Mira Mountains by the Mostington grassland, and then go along the Andaru River valley, and take another route into Emlock, instead of taking the usual Phimus route. Date opened a simple map he had with him and marked the route he had spoken. Although the information on it is very simple, the area marked is much larger than from the map of secret trade routes, and you can see the general situation of the entire area intuitively.

During the time that Gehr went to investigate, he was familiar with survival in the wild, and he found some herbs in the resource-rich forest to apply to himself and Klemi, and his injuries improved significantly. Although the speech is still leaky, it can basically be heard by others.

"How's it going to take time?" asked Gehr, looking at the new route.

"It's more than twenty days longer than originally planned, but if we go back to the original route from the Mostington Prairie, it won't take less than that. Date explained.

"I also think it's better to change the route, the Principality of Haysting in the Andaru River valley is a very famous free business territory, where the roads are in good condition and the safety can be reported. And along this road, we can directly follow the trade road into the territory of the Dandison family. Lucarine made her attitude clear.

"Well, let's go this way. Seeing Iona's indifferent attitude and Clemi's approval, Gell made a decision.
