Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 172: No trace

It didn't take long before the door of the hotel room was slammed open suddenly, and then several heavily armed members of the Dark Cross filed in one after another. The leader was Captain Jerodir, who was in full armor and carrying a heavy shield.

The original plan was for Lorna to take the time of the poison attack and leave the battlefield at the right opportunity to avoid falling into the next possible battle and being affected.

And if there is no suitable opportunity for poisoning, I would rather give up poisoning and just drag the target.

Looking at the empty and quiet room at the moment, the food left on the table is still braving the remaining warmth, and Captain Jerodir's mood is a bit complicated for a while.

Obviously, the plan failed. Once these evil and secret enemies are alarmed, it will be difficult to catch them.

The final result of the task is likely to be that everyone goes back home without gain, and should bear the responsibility for failure. As for Lorna, it may have fallen into the hands of the enemy, or it may have been sacrificed.

Relevant rescues must be carried out, but the premise is that the whereabouts of the enemy must be traceable.

On the other hand, although Lorna is not an excellent combat mage, she still has Tier 3 strength there. Since the opponent outrageously shot, and also subdued Lorna, this shows that the previous predictions of the enemy's various dangers are accurate.

But invisible, Jerodier also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The corners of his eyes kept beating before, and his heart was a little uneasy for no reason, as if everyone was going to attack the dragon's lair.

This inexplicable premonition often has no source. The missions solved by the third squadron of Dark Cross are enough to cover the entire wall, but few missions can give Gerrodier this inexplicable sense of oppression before the war. .

Since the mission has failed at this moment, it may not necessarily be such a bad thing.

The members of the Dark Cross who entered the room dispersed one after another, and carried out a detailed routine search in every corner of the room. Some people opened the window to observe the outside environment, or waved to the people left behind on the street.

"How did you go?" Captain Gerrodier asked solemnly. The enemy and Lorna would naturally not disappear for no reason, they must have used some special methods.

"There have indeed been magical fluctuations here recently, but it is impossible to determine whether it is teleportation or some other special means." The female mage in the team, Serena, came to a conclusion after investigating.

"Can you follow it?" Jerodir asked.

"The destination is full of magical turbulence, and it's not clear anymore." Serena shook her head regretfully.

"What is that, the evil medium?" Jerodier's gaze suddenly stopped on the skull on the bedside table. In many ancient stories circulated, evil enemies always use things like skulls to perform their weirdness. Spells.

"No, I have detected it. It has no magic power. It's just an ordinary skeleton." Serena replied.

"Can you take it back for business?" Deputy Captain Walliston asked expectantly.

"It's useless, there is no magical power. Even if it used to be an appliance, it is no longer valid. Otherwise, it will not be discarded here at will. You can pick up a bunch of these skeletons in the cemetery." Hovering over the skull to explain.

On the cabinet, Timo looked forward nervously, with the little white hands on top of his head. Sniffing the faint scent, feeling the faint temperature of the little hand,... Damn, you touched it, Timo felt like he was sweating in a hurry.

Finally, the slender fingertips of that little hand swept across his skull and left with nostalgia. For a moment Timo felt that his soul trembled, and he almost couldn't help groaning.

"Since there is no direction...let's take the team first." After everyone was in a hurry, Jerodier could only make an order with difficulty in the end.

The players left silently, and no one asked about Lorna's whereabouts or follow-up. It's not that they are ruthless, but they are very clear that since they have participated in the task, life and death will come at any time, and unnecessary feelings are meaningless.

Timo breathed a sigh of relief when the surrounding area became quiet again.

Originally, Thor did not arrange for Timo to stay. The original plan was that Timo closed the door of the secret and opened the window to escape, but Timo believed that adventure should also be part of his life, so he decided to stay.

Anyway, even if he was stuffed into the bag by anyone, he would have enough opportunities to escape quietly at any time on the road.

At this moment, thinking about the encounter with that soft little hand just now, Timo suddenly understood why the boss would rather die on the road and go on a risky adventure. It seems that taking risks is a very meaningful thing.

On the first floor of the dungeon of reincarnation, Sol carried Lorna, this wack, and ran all the way.

He didn't run too far, gave up the three doors that he had encountered in the aisle along the way, and when he found the fourth door to someone else's secret realm, Sol didn't care where he led, and rushed in with Lorna's head on his shoulders.

After a flash of eyesight, the surrounding environment suddenly became dim, and it seemed...Is it a cellar again? Oh, I like the cellar!

Sol put Lorna off his shoulders and hugged him horizontally, then climbed up the cellar stairs and opened the cellar door with his head, observing the environment on the ground. This seems to be an abandoned barn, with grass and wood structure, and the smell of pig dung from next door is floating in the air.

Walking out of the barn, it seemed to be a very old village. I didn't know which territory it was located in. The lights were sparsely lit. Looking at the whole village, there may be 20 or 30 residents, and I haven't seen any magnificent large-scale buildings.

Looking back at the several barns behind him, it seemed that only the pig farm next to him seemed to be living, and all the others were dark.

This is also in line with Sol's consistent impression that the loss of population migration caused by the hardship of life, disease, profit plundering among the same kind, danger from the dark wilderness, or death by adventure are the main reasons for the decline in the population of such small villages.

Most of the houses in the town may be empty, and they have never even been full.

Although he didn't know where he was at the moment, Sol was extremely satisfied with this environment, remote and inconspicuous, poor and backward, and even gave Sol in his heart a kind of intimacy of returning to Gray Screen.

Turning back to the barn, he picked a cellar, but the piles of rotten vegetables left in the cellar smoked Saul back, looking for it, and finally found an empty and clean one.

"You'd better stay here and wait for me to come back. Of course, I don't have any problem with you if you want to run around. There will always be some hungry and thirsty men in this kind of remote country. A gorgeous lady like you is as eye-catching as a dark night ."

"You are just an ordinary person with no magical powers. If unfortunately they find you and throw you down, I may not be able to stop them. You know, some primitive powers are usually very powerful."

As Saul ordered, he touched the important parts of her body under Lorna's shocked gaze, and then took away her ring, earrings and necklace, not even the brooch of the dress.

"I won't move things in your space, in fact I can't move either, so wait for me to come back." Sol said at last.

Lorna gave him a stern look, and finally nodded reluctantly.

Next, Saul visited a local farmer as a poor traveler and bought some food called bean paste biscuits produced by his family. He also inquired about what he wanted.

This is a village called Luosha Town, but it has been many years since it had the scale of the town. Nowadays, it does not belong to any territories at all, it is a small village in disarray, and the whole village is located in the depths of the Rurda Desert.

It's no wonder that walking on the muddy road between the villages can always feel the sand on the feet. Sol turned out the map and looked at it, but he couldn't find this place on the map. There is the Rurda Desert, which is located directly east of the southern border of the mainland of Salvinia.

There is nothing to entangle if you can't find it. After figuring out the approximate location, Sol returned to the cellar of the barn.

"Now I will remove the cloth for you, but you'd better keep your lady quiet, don't scream or make unnecessary noises, or I will block your mouth with something else, understand?" Saul Qing He patted Lorna on the head.

After she nodded, Thor tore the cloth off, then raised the food in his hand.

"This is a local specialty made with beans. Would you like to try it?" Sol asked.

Lorna coughed and shook her head.

Saul shrugged and didn't care, then looked around, only to remember that there was not even a place to sit in this cellar. So he shook his hand aside, and a single bed appeared in the cellar.

This bed was brought by Sol from the Tombkeeper's Hut in Gray Screen at that time, mainly because he was afraid that he would not be used to sleeping in other beds during the journey, but unfortunately there was no chance to use it on the road.

When he originally left, he wanted to steal the tombkeeper's hut together, but his mental power seemed to be insufficient to support the hut's retracting, so he could only retreat and take a bed with him.

"You... what are you doing with your bed?" Lorna shrank from the corner and looked at Saul nervously.

"Who knows? Eat? Or do something more meaningful than sleep?" Sol turned his head a little amused. He just took it out and sat down, and didn't want to do anything at all, but it seemed that Lorna had a lot of associations. Rich.

"You better... don't think too much! The oracle requires women to remain chaste throughout their lives to reflect piety." Lorna made up the story weakly.

"Ha! You mean you are very religious? According to your statement, if every woman on this continent is a believer, then it won't take many years before human beings will become extinct because they have no offspring." Saul snorted. It's really interesting to speak out.

Lorna opened her mouth, and she couldn't refute it for a while.

Sol slowly swallowed the bean paste under Lorna's silent gaze, oh, some of the grains are rough, but the overall sweetness is still very strong.

"Don't worry, the original game is after, and now is the most interesting part of the story. Come, let us understand each other a little bit more." Sol wiped his hands and walked towards Lorna with a smile.

"Yeah! Don't come over..." Lorna screamed and retreated into the corner in a panic.

"Are you sure you want me to plug your mouth with something else?" Saul gently put his arms around her shoulders.

Lorna blushed, although she didn't know what the other things were, she could probably guess part of it.

In the end, Sol pulled Lona to the bed and pressed Lorna with her chest down on her legs.
