987.The end point where the two lines intersect - Qingming Festival【1/1】 (Page 1/2)
“The black winter wolf wandering in the neverwinter snowfield is actually the descendant of Boreas? But why is it here? Did the Transians bring it? Or is it that the God of Creation, Your Excellency, sensed the gathering storm in Port Chardeau in advance, so he specially brought such a powerful thug with him?？”
On a high-rise building in the business district not far from the port area, a "scholar" holding a cane was looking at the battle on the sea through a complex telescope. When he saw the winter wolf calling for a cold disaster to sweep through the port area , he knew that the Dagon Secret Cult’s raid on the port area was going to fail..
It’s not unfair to lose. After all, no one expected that a legendary creature would appear in the Genoa Peninsula..
But there was no distress on the scholar's face. On the contrary, his eyes were full of interested exploration. If the time was right, he really hoped to meet with Lord Eris and take some biological samples from it. It will definitely be helpful for his next research.
Unfortunately, time is indifferent to everyone.
He must now leave this warm place to accomplish what he must accomplish.
“tick tick tick”
The scholar put his gentleman's hat on top of his classic Mediterranean hairstyle, turned off the alarm clock that kept beeping on the table, and put it in his arms. He finally looked at the room where he was with a nostalgic expression..
There is an old photo on the desk, which he just put here.
Many years ago, he took this photo with him when he started his long journey, and now that he puts it back here, it means that he finally returned to his hometown with what he found..
“Those children have been deliberately preserving the way this room once was, as if they want to go back to the good old days and escape the cold reality. I still haven't been able to teach them well. It's not a good idea to be afraid of the future. What is the mentality a qualified mechanic should have?.”
The scholar sighed and opened the door with his cane..
Standing outside the door was a male shadow elf disguised as a waiter. He was looking at the scholar expectantly and anxiously. Next to him was a coffin-like device that could be carried on his back. In the light occasionally reflected from the mirror, a girl can be vaguely seen sleeping in it..
Her cheeks were severely burned, and she looked like a ghost. She had to stay in this portable biopod to breathe her last..
“Penny's condition is already very bad. Scholar, when can we rescue her?？”
The male elf asked in a pleading voice. The scholar shrugged and said softly.：
“Don't be so desperate, kid, let's go right now! Everything is arranged, just waiting for your mentor to bring back the 'smart hat' I made in my youth. Don't mind the name, it will help poor Penny.
Bring your friends and follow me, the rest of the journey may be a bit bumpy.”
“ok ok.”
The slightly cowardly male elf immediately carried his friend on his back and followed the scholar step by step out of this inconspicuous high-rise building in the business district. When they arrived outside the door, there was already a manned walker waiting..
But what is surprising is that this walking machine does not have a driver. It came here in a "unmanned" state..
“Resuscitation, take us there.”
The scholar who got on the bus said softly.
The invisible data consciousness began to operate, causing the walking machine to start heading towards the outer city in the stormy night. In order to take care of the sick Penny, the scholar also deliberately made the walking machine's pace more stable..
“Is your name Bertie? You like this girl？”
In the silence, the scholar who was looking at a map suddenly raised his head and asked, which made the male elf opposite suddenly stutter and wave his hands.：
“No, no! Penny is a powerful warrior and assassin, an elite who can inherit the mantle of Lord Salifu. I am just a mechanic and archaeologist with no skills. I am still a man. Our status in the shadow elf society is very different..”
“But that is in the ordinary shadow elf society. As far as I know, the faction of Sariv does not pay attention to this weird male-female opposition. This is what I admire most about Lord Shadowblade. As a person who is extremely twisted among the shadow elves, A person who grew up in a society where women were superior to men. He hated the unreasonable inequality and was determined to make changes..”
The scholar looked at the male elf in front of him with a smile like an old man, and he said warmly：
“As his follower, I think you should have a deeper understanding of Saliv's philosophy.
You are not a humble man, my child. You are now a warrior who is willing to take risks in the most dangerous city in the world for your lover. I dare say that even the bravest women in the Shadow Elf family will not run away at this time. Come to Port Chardeau.
You are already more powerful than them.
In addition, if you really fall in love with Miss Penny, why not seize this last moment to say goodbye to her?.
After the transformation of life by my own hands, she will be resurrected with a new attitude.
In that case, I can't guarantee that Miss Penny will be able to retain her emotions. Do you understand what I mean? She will come back to life, but maybe for you, this will be the last time you see the familiar her..”
“I I can't help it”
The male elf suddenly felt a little confused.
Seeing his appearance, the scholar laughed, took out a pen and paper and handed it to him, saying：
“There is no way to say it, so just write it down. Write down your expectations for the future and your feelings. I guarantee that Miss Penny will read it..”
“OK.”
Shadow Elf Bod nodded, took the pen and paper, and started writing seriously on the slightly shaking walker that carried him towards the restless night. This scene made the scholar smile, and then shook his head..
It seems that he is sighing for this relationship that is destined to be fruitless..
At the same time, in the University City Museum in Port Chardeau, Sarifu Shadowblade, who had put on a dark assassin uniform, was walking in the dead corridor like a ghost..
This museum collects various unique and commemorative things from the halfling civilization. However, in the past period of time, it has been temporarily used as a shelter. The lower five floors are all places where refugees live. The original The collections have been moved to the upper floors.
Shadow Blade needs to find what the scholar left here, and get it to save his disciples.
There was a calmness in his heart that was almost dead. This was the state that an assassin must have when performing a mission..
Walking on the marble floor with light steps, the thunder outside the window occasionally lit up in the storm stretched his shadow. This noisy external environment is conducive to the actions of assassins and thieves, even if it is at the level of Saliv This assistance is no longer needed.
He quickly found the location of the thing.
It was piled together with some exhibits in a side room. Due to the turmoil of the current situation, these collections were not well protected. Not to mention any safety devices, even the fences were missing, and there was only one on the door of the side room. An old lock as protection.
Of course this cannot stop an outstanding gold seeker.
He walked inside without making any sound, reached out and opened the display case, and took out the strange-looking mechanical-style helmet dotted with many small light bulbs..
This thing is called "smart hat" by scholars.”.
It’s really hard to understand what kind of strange thinking young scholars have.
Salifu put it away and was about to leave, but just when he turned around and opened the window and was about to jump from a high place, he suddenly looked back behind him.
There was a child crying outside the side room door..
The cry was quite hesitant, mixed with the cry of "Mom". It looked like a child had been lost on this stormy night..
Shadow Blade hesitated for a moment. He shouldn't be meddlesome. This museum is a very safe place. Even if the child spends a night here, there will be no problem..
He persuaded himself in this way, then closed the window and turned towards the door expressionlessly. As if by magic, when he walked out of the side room, Saliv had already used the shadow elf's secret method to disguise himself as an ordinary person. Museum staff, even their costumes are perfectly disguised.
Disguise, this is a skill that an assassin must master.
“Kid, why are you here?？”
He easily found the little human boy huddled in the dark corner holding his head and crying..
That gesture was very similar to the way he looked when he picked up Penny and Bertie in the village of Eternal Rift more than thirty years ago. Perhaps even earlier, he should have looked like this when he was picked up by Truman outside the city. helpless and timid.
Shadow Blade stepped forward and squatted down, speaking in as gentle a voice as possible：
“Where is your mother?？”
“My mother is missing. I want to find her here..”
