Chapter 152: Victor Forgiven
And at this moment, Lance, who had been silent, smiled and said to everyone, "Two years ago, I and a group of my brothers once faced a blood-colored vicious dog, since the church issued this mission, and at the same time there must be certain clues, I think the people of the church will not let us blindly search in the huge Gores Mountains!"
Lance's words reminded Luca.
Lukka patted his head, as if he remembered something, and hurriedly took out a mission briefing from his bosom.
"I just told you, I forgot to read the mission briefing I received, my mistakes, my mistakes, haha......"
Luca said to the crowd in a curt.
When he opened the bulletin made of sheepskin and looked at it for a while, he spread it out on the table with a happy face and said, "Hey...... Look at my head, the mission briefing has marked the approximate location of the Scarlet Dog, as well as a rough judgment of the strength of the Scarlet Dog. With this information, I don't think it would be so difficult to find the Scarlet Dog. ”
"Okay, in that case, let's prepare. ”
Quiles, as the captain, saw that everyone had no opinion, and slapped the table to make a decision.
After saying that, he seemed to think of something again, and asked Lance with a frown, "You just said that you once faced a bloody vicious dog?"
"Yes. ”
Lance then gave a general account of the battle with the Scarlet Dogs in the Forest of Irene.
Although Lance's description is very plain, Lance's experience is that everyone looks at each other.
At the beginning, Lance was only the strength of the middle stage of the Beginner Realm, and he couldn't imagine that he could hold on to the Scarlet Vicious Dog for so long, and he had to sigh at Lance's strength and luck.
Now that you have a general understanding of the Scarlet Dog, the next step is to prepare the supplies and dry food needed for the operation.
There are a lot of things to prepare, but in a Mercenary Fortress, it's easy to prepare.
So before dark, Quiles had already purchased all the equipment and dry food needed for the trip.
Because there were several mercenary teams that also took over the task at the same time, before dawn the next day, a group of six people set off towards the Goles Mountains with the necessary equipment.
——————————
In the castle in the center of the inner city of the mercenary fortress, an old man dressed in a very simple way was standing in the window looking in the direction of the Golls Mountains, a little distracted.
Beside him, there was also a young man with short white hair who was dressed in a white magic robe and had a respectful face.
"Grandpa Victor, I've found out that the young man is none other than Lance Ramson, who disappeared in the abyss two years ago. ”
"Jon, do you know why I haven't let you leave the Mercenary Fortress for so many years?"
The old man known as Victor did not turn around, and he said to the white-haired young man behind him in a flat tone.
This question has always been a problem that has plagued Jon Victor.
However, for as long as he can remember, Grandpa Victor has followed him in almost everything except for not letting him leave the mercenary fortress.
Although Jon had asked his beloved grandfather this question many times, Victor only smiled and did not answer him directly.
But every time, Grandpa Victor would take the trouble to say something inconsistency to him.
"The wheel of fate has been opened, the seventh reincarnation casts the world key, the seeds in the magic box will grow, the ashes of the gods are the nourishment for rebirth, and the re-disrupted order will return to chaos ......"
Although Jon always wanted Grandpa Victor to tell him what this sentence meant, every time Grandpa Victor just smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about anything, you'll understand later." ”
At that moment, Grandpa Victor took the initiative to bring up this issue, and Jon was also a little surprised.
He hurriedly said to Victor, "Grandpa Victor, are you willing to tell me the answer?"
"The answer to the question needs to be found by yourself, the wheel of fate has been activated, and this key forged by the reincarnation of the seventh life has also appeared, whether you can find the seed of the magic box, it depends on the arrangement of fate. ”
Victor turned and walked slowly towards Jon, then reached out and touched Jon's head, his eyes full of love for his beloved grandson.
More than ten years ago, Victor met this gray-haired, swaddling doll in the Winter Springs Wilderness, which is now Jon.
At that time, it was snowing on the Winter Springs Wilderness, and the little doll, wrapped in white swaddling clothes, was shivering with the ice and snow.
But strangely, when Victor spotted him, he actually giggled at Victor.
Victor fell in love with the doll at first sight, so he took Jon, who was still an infant, back to the Mercenary Fortress.
Victor, who has no heirs, seems to be a different person since he met Jon.
He is like a super dad, taking care of this child given to him by God.
More than a decade later, Jon has grown into a big boy, and he loves Victor as much as he loves him.
It's better to be a relative than a relative.
Although Jon has countless doubts about Victor's request, out of respect for Victor, Jon has never done anything that displeased Victor.
"Come, Jon, sit with Grandpa for a while. ”
As Victor spoke, he sat down in a soft chair in the room, and Jon took a low stool from the side and sat down in front of Victor.
"Grandpa Victor, do you have anything on your mind today, does it have anything to do with that kid named Lance?"
"Haha...... Jon, you're a smart kid, and all the answers need to be found by yourself, and grandpa is old. ”
Victor, who was originally full of energy, seems to be a little older at the moment.
Jon didn't speak, he reached out and grabbed Victor's old hands and gently rubbed his fingers for him.
"Jon, maybe this goodbye, I don't know how long it will be before we meet again. ”
Victor shifted his body and lay down on the soft chair in a comfortable position.
He withdrew his hand from Jon's hand, just like he had done as a child, and held Jon in his arms.
It's just that Jon is now a big boy, and he can no longer sit on Victor's lap, tugging his beard, and listening to his stories like he did when he was a child.
"Grandpa Victor, if that's the case, I'd rather keep you guarded all the time. ”
"Silly boy, grandpa has lived for hundreds of years, and I won't die, and in terms of my strength, how many people do you think can pose a threat to me on ......the Kstana continent?"
Victor patted Jon lightly on the head and continued, "Ever since I met you, I have known that the Twilight God has forgiven my sins, and after more than ten years of family fun, I, Frankenstein Victor, have been content. ”
"Grandpa, Twilight God is tolerant, and Twilight God has always seen what you have done over the years. ”
"Child, I am an existence that should not exist, it is you who awaken my heart that has long been dead and withered, child, I have selfishly kept you by my side all these years, you won't blame me, right?"
"You didn't give me a life, but without you, I would have died in the Winter Springs Wilderness. ”
"You are a kind child, and the glory of the twilight god will always shine on you. ”
"Grandpa......"
Victor's words made Jon have some bad premonitions.
He looked up and looked at Victor with a complicated look in his eyes.
"Child, remember my words, the wheel of fate has been opened, I can no longer selfishly keep you by my side, maybe this is also the will of the Dusk God!"
"Grandpa, I don't want to leave you. ”
"I don't want you to leave me, as long as you complete your mission sooner, we will meet again. ”
——————————
Four days later, Lance and his party were on the outskirts of the Gorles Mountains.
According to the prompt of the mission briefing, Lance and the others are going to search for the nearest map cue point first.
The hints in these mission briefings are all about the places where the Church has found the appearance of the Scarlet Dog.
In the past two years, the church has been struggling to deal with the appearance of undead creatures everywhere and the large-scale undead army on the western front, so it has to issue bounties in the mercenary guild due to the lack of manpower.
But before that, the church had already sent some Red Cross light riders to track down the Scarlet Dogs, but after they sent a distress message, there was no more news.
Before entering the Golls Mountains, the group studied the map and the information on the mission briefing again.
After deciding on the search route, Lance and his party went straight into the Goles Mountains.
The Goles Mountains are a huge primeval forest that is inaccessible to people, and there are often many fierce monsters in it, but it seems that the Goles Mountains have some kind of prohibition, so for hundreds of thousands of years, no Warcraft has ever walked out of the Goles Mountains.
Due to the dense forests and complex terrain of the Gores Mountains, it was very difficult to travel, so the matter of opening the way naturally fell on the head of the elf archer, Dilanthel, who was born in the jungle.
With his rich jungle experience, it took less than half a day for everyone to reach the nearest map point on the mission briefing.
Here, like everywhere else, it is part of this dense jungle.
Since it was summer, and the surrounding flowers and trees were extremely lush, there was no trace of the appearance of the blood-colored vicious dog from the naked eye.
"Brothers, if you search for clues like this, the progress will be very slow, this is still on the periphery of the Goles Mountains, there shouldn't be too much danger, let's search separately." ”
It was Luca who spoke.
He said to the crowd after searching the surroundings aimlessly to no avail.
Luca's suggestion was correct, and it was very difficult to find a bloody vicious dog hidden in the huge Goles Mountains with just a few of them.
However, it was also stated in the mission briefing that the place where the Scarlet Vicious Dog appeared would definitely leave a heavy aura of death.
It's just that these breaths won't last long, and they will be completely wiped out by the breath of the forest.
"I agree with Luca's suggestion, so let's search separately in pairs, but don't stay too far away, although this is still a peripheral area, but who knows if there will be any other potential dangers here. ”
Di Lansel cut off the branch in front of him, he stopped and continued, "Luca is in a group with me, Dumb is in a group with Quels, Lance is in a group with Lilith, if there is no problem, let's get started!"
