Happy to work with
Logan rested against the tree for a while, his clothes in tatters and covered in scars and char, but at least he could speak fluently.
So he asked, "How do you want to work together?"
"First of all, you tell me what that amulet is. "I'm not in a hurry.
Logan glanced at the fiery red sewn cloth talisman around his waist and said, "This is made by Alice to seal your power, and you have seen its function just now. β
"What else did Alice give you besides this amulet?"
"No more. β
"Okay, I'll talk about how we can work together. I smiled and continued, "Since none of us want to serve Alice, then Alice must want to kill us and find someone else to take her place. Why don't we pretend to listen to her, stay with her, and find an opportunity to deal with her?"
Logan thought for a while and asked, "You're not going to betray me?"
"We have each other's secrets, and if I betray you and you tell Alice that I'm not Nicole, I'll be finished. And if you betray me, you will also be exposed by me. β
"So you're going to let me go back and tell Alice that you don't have anything out of the ordinary, so that you can hide from her and let you continue to act as an adventurer?"
"That's right, but now that Alice has asked me to be my teammate, I'm sure you'll have to report back to Lotus after we kill her, and then you just have to tell her that there's nothing wrong with Nicole. β
Logan snorted, "Aren't you afraid that I will attack and kill you?"
"That's why I was going to ask you about the amulet. I was prepared, and stretched out a hand and said, "As long as you give me back the power and give me the amulet for safekeeping, our cooperation will begin." Even if you want to sneak up on me, will you be able to stop the Eye of Fury?"
β............β
"Otherwise, I'll kill you here. You're dead, and I'll admit that Alice wants to hunt me down, anyway, I won't leave a hidden danger around. β
Logan hesitated for a few seconds, then slowly removed the amulet and handed it to me, as soon as I caught the amulet, the warm current returned to my body, and the amulet gradually faded into a pure white appearance.
The talisman is very silky and smooth, and it must be made of high-grade cloth, and Alice is quite cheap!
Anyway, I also regained the power of the Eye of Fury, which I used to deal with Logan's sneak attack.
Before, Logan said that he didn't have a trick that could kill me with one hit, which is not a lie, because in addition to the Ice Bow Ice Spirit Sword and Ice Spear, he also has the Ice Breaking Flying Knife left, these are not any tricks, if he really had them, he would have used them a long time ago.
On the other hand, I, or Nicole, am a powerful mage who has mastered the four high-level elemental spells, and all four spells are first-class tricks.
And as long as he doesn't kill me with a single blow, I'll unleash the Eye of Fury, and I'll be doomed.
"Since we agreed, let's go back, and don't let anyone else come out to us, we won't be able to explain it then. β
"How do you explain our injuries?"
ββββββββββββ
"What? You two went out for a walk and met a monster?" said Danio as soon as he saw us returning, and after observing the injuries of both of us, he shouted, "Go and heal!"
"You're okay, but your hand was pierced again, and Logan was out of luck, that monster...... That monster also uses a flamethrower?" Amy asked subconsciously when she saw that Logan's body was burned miserably, as if it had been burned by fire.
I said vaguely: "Yes, yes, hurry up and treat, you can't delay the next adventure." β
"I think Logan is like this, I guess I have to lie down for a few days, and he won't go for the time being. "Danio took Logan from my back and carried him out, and I, at least I could walk, so I went to the doctor myself.
The Medic used the healing magic to restore my palmsβthis was the second time of the dayβand I went back to the tent to rest, and Logan was so badly injured that even if the healing magic could heal him, it would take a day, and a little rest to recuperate before I could continue my adventure.
Amy looked at my hand enviously and couldn't help but sigh, "It's really worthy of the great doctor invited by the principality, if only the hospital could hire a few doctors who specialize in healing magic." β
"They are clergy, they are sent by the Church to support them, and the hospital can not touch them. β
"Oh, if I had received such treatment earlier, I wouldn't have been lying in the hospital for two whole days!"
"Because you were the first to want to go to the hospital, we wanted to take you to the church and find a clergyman for treatment, and you had to stop us!" said Danio.
"Isn't that the Heavenly Realm without magic? If I had known that the Arad Continent had healing magic, I wouldn't have cried and shouted to go to the hospital! Thinking about it, it's no wonder that there are no trauma patients in the hospital except me, either the elderly with cardiovascular disease, or the ...... with terminal illness."
Well, such a powerful healing magic, not only in the Heavenly Realm, but also in the Sunset Continent that I am familiar with, in the Sunset Continent, how can there be a profession to heal teammates, the four series of adventurers are all outputs! Until today, I thought that Amy's lying in the hospital was the right decision.
"Anyway, we're going to leave for the Polar Day as soon as possible. Lilu suddenly interjected at an inopportune moment, "You've probably rested enough, haven't you?"
I just had a fight, what do you say?
"Logan and Nicole, don't go, you've just fought monsters, I'm afraid you're tired. β
"Yes, yes, Nicole won't go hahaha. Lando scoffed and agreed.
"Don't think!" As soon as I heard this, I immediately became energetic, "I have to go, I can't be compared to you!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a sound in the sky behind us, and we looked back to see that another Magadha had arrived!
Magadha hovered in the air, and after the soft ladder was lowered, a thin figure in a dark robe crept down, stopping for a while, and was shocked by the shouts of Kakun above, and then continued to climb down.
It seems that Ophelia is coming.
"Miss Ophelia. When Barn saw it, he was the first to greet him, "Why are you here?"
"I have to tell ...... Ahh
I sighed, went over to help her, and asked, "Are your injuries healed?"
"Yes, thank you for your concern, I have gone to church for treatment. β
You just abandoned the hospital ward?
"But your body is not as good as our soldiers, and their adventurers, you still need to rest for a while. Barne's tone of voice to the young girl sounded gentle, a change from his previous unruly style.
Of course, that must be pretended.
"Because there is some information you must know about the Heavenly Veil Behemoth. β
"Okay. But please go to the Imperial tent and rest for a while. β
ββββββββββββββ
At the same time, Barn invited Lilou and me to the tent for a "meeting" with Ophelia.
In the largest tent of the empire, there was a large table with a huge drawing on it, which turned out to be a map of the Heavenly Veil Behemoth.
"Ha, this is what the Knights' painters drew on Miss Ophelia's little map. β
We sat down around the table, and Ophelia also pointed to one of the locations and said, "This is the Dryad Jungle, and the Dryads living in it are the aborigines of the Heavenly Veil Behemoth, and we in the GBL Sect will not take the initiative to disturb them, so you must be careful when crossing over." β
"It's okay, Rodin the Guardian of the Giant Tree is dead. β
"......," Ophelia said with a sad look on her face, and then pointed to the location of the first spine, "This is where the church is, but you can't go in directly." β
"We all know this, because there may be enemies on both sides of the Aurora and Purgatory, so we have decided to clear the Aurora and Purgatory first. Lilu said.
"That's not going to work, because when Polar Day and Purgatory are attacked, the first spine in the middle of the two places will also receive information. β
We didn't think about that.
Barn seemed to have already made arrangements: "Don't worry, our Imperial Knights will guard the gate of the first spine, and not a single enemy will come out, so let you rest assured that you will go to the two places to adventure." β
You're really thoughtful...... You're safe anyway, aren't you?
"So, I'll start with the polar day. It was the highest point of the Heavenly Veil Behemoth, and it was also where the arsenal of the GBL Sect was located, which contained siege equipment such as dragon cannons, antler chariots, and flying machines like Dornier. β
"May I ask? I interrupted Ophelia and asked, "What does the GBL teach with so many weapons?" β
"These weapons were all found in ancient ruins, and were mass-produced to resist the monsters on the Heavenly Veil Behemoth. β
"Are there a lot of monsters on the Heavenly Veil Behemoth?"
Ophelia nodded and said, "Speaking of monsters, you have to refine the hell. There's a terrifying creature there, and we call them 'Yakshas'. Legend has it that the Yaksha is a product of Venus, the god of beauty, who was a former member of the GBL religion and was exiled to purgatory to atone for their sins, during which they desecrated the majesty of the god of beauty and were transformed into this terrible monster. β
Lilou smiled and asked me, "Is that the monster that hurt you and Logan like this?"
I ignored her and asked, "Didn't the GBL Sect eliminate them?"
"No, according to Uncle Marcel, the GBL Cult named this place Purgatory after discovering the existence of the Yakshas, and later, all GBL cultists who violated the dogma were exiled here. β
It seems that they either died at the hands of the Yaksha or were assimilated.
"It may be a little cruel, but this is an ancient rule of the GBL religion that has been passed down to this day, so please don't have any bad opinions......
"That's a lot of monsters, and Nicole was injured...... "Lilou asked again, right, you were injured by such monsters, right?"
I quickly digressed the subject: "Who is Uncle Marcel?"
"Uncle Marcel...... He was also a member of the GBL Sect, and it was he who protected me after Lotus showed up, allowing me to escape on board Dornier, but he ...... I'm afraid that he has also become a puppet of Lotus. β
"Please mourn and be submissive. β
"In short, the adventurer must capture these two places first, and then advance towards Rotes. β
"Lotus's mind control still can't be solved, and until Lord Alice comes up with a way to deal with it, neither our empire nor the adventurers will act rashly. "We decided to leave tomorrow, so let's take a break today." β
As I wanted, I wanted to sleep for a long time, even though it was only noon.
"Alright, let's go to dinner, disband!" Barn ordered us as a matter of course.
I sighed, and was about to step out of the tent when Barn said:
"Happy working together, adventurers!"
