Chapter 42 I want to return to the team
"It seems that they are using this place as a base these days and keep causing trouble for us." After leaving the well-informed businessman, Catherine slowly put away her face and smiled coldly in her heart: "But I'm very suspicious, they really haven't left yet?"
"Who knows." Panis spread his hands: "Anyway, no one knows them after taking off the mask. No one can say whether they were mixed in the thieves group and went out. However, I think they shouldn't have left yet."
"To be very grinding?" Lina shouted a piece of frosted red bead fruit in her mouth and asked vaguely: "There must be a reason."
"It will be difficult for them to find another such place to be a base after leaving here," Panis explained. "Unless they give up attacking us, or they are willing to sleep in the wilderness every day like a poor thieves, there is no need to leave here."
"Don't forget what we discussed before, they are likely to be mercenaries." Vivian retorted: "Mercenaries have long been used to living in harsh conditions for a long time, so they can live well in the wilderness."
"But being able to be versus habits are two different things." This time, Katherine agreed with Penis: "Just like we can live with dried meat and cookies when conditions are bad, but I think no one likes you unless the conditions are forced. This is the same thing. They don't need to take the initiative to run into the wilderness and suffer when there is no risk."
"Okay, I admit, what you said makes sense." Vivian nodded in agreement. This is the pattern of discussing issues among several people. One person puts forward opinions or opinions, while the other person tries to deliberately think from the opposite direction to find possible problems with this idea. Then argue and convince each other about these issues, trying to make such opinions or opinions more stable and accurate.
"I have doubts here." Lina was not completely convinced: "I don't know anyone else, but if the fox appears in front of me, even if he takes off his mask, I'm half the chance of recognizing him. As for the little rabbit, Vivian should be easy to tell."
"They have left the court and there is no need to stay here at all." Panis retorted: "So, if they leave, it is very likely that others will stay."
"Agree." "Agree."
"I agree, too." Lina said, playing with her long hair: "But even if we know that they are still hiding here, it doesn't make any sense. And they don't know who it is, so they probably don't dare to take action here."
"Anyway, be careful," said Catherine: "Observe more."
"Okay, observe more, observe more." Lina muttered and said as she walked: "Sister, do we have anything to buy?"
"Of course not." Catherine said angrily: "It's still a long way to go, and there are only commodities here. How can I transport them back after buying them?"
"That's probably, maybe..." Lina was not discussing the issue at this time, but was completely bored and bickering. However, she was stunned when she was halfway through her words. She carefully identified her for a long time and pulled Panis's clothes: "Hey. Look at that person, I'm right."
"Who?" Panis looked at Lina's gaze and was stunned for a moment: "Well. You read that right, it's her."
"This is the first time I have discovered that maybe every choice of ours may change a person's ultimate destiny." Lina looked at the target with some emotion: "Maybe, we didn't let her follow us at that time. In a year or two, she will get married and have children. Let's embark on an ordinary road."
"Actually, there is nothing wrong with an ordinary road." Panis said calmly: "At least you can live your life safely, without worrying about which monster you will die every day. You don't have to guess every day whether your body can be discovered and buried before it turns into bones."
"Even if the mortality rate is very high, at least she has fought brilliantly. I think it is priceless for her. Let's say hello." Lina pulled Catherine and Vivian and walked towards her target. What Lina saw was an ordinary woman with an ordinary appearance and figure. Judging from the number, dress and strength of her companions around her, she should be an adventurer, and she looked like several relatively low-level adventure groups. Seeing that they were scattered near a small caravan, they should be hired by this caravan from the Capital of Knowledge and were responsible for protection along the way. The female adventurer was facing this side and did not notice the approach of the four people at all. Until a puzzled look appeared in her companions' eyes, she found Lina who was approaching.
"Hi, Ledia." In just one minute, Lina has transformed from a slutty and prank-like queen to a holy girl with a sacred look full of sacred breath, and said to the female adventurer in a gentle and quiet tone: "I haven't seen you for a few months, and we are all happy to see you all safe."
"Is it the priest?" Ledia was stunned, and seemed to return to the moment when she was fighting together in Angus Village a few months ago. She tapped her chest with one hand like a member of the city guard and replied loudly: "I am very happy too."
"You are no longer a member of the City Guard, you don't need to be so serious." Lina smiled gently and patted Ledia's shoulder: "And, I haven't said it long ago. I'm just going to help, just a priest, not a priest at all. How can you change it?"
"No, in my eyes, you will always be the priest who saved my life." Ledia said seriously: "No matter how your identity and I change, this will not change."
"You still haven't changed like this." Lina said helplessly, "But I feel very relieved to know that you have finally embarked on the adventurer's path. It seems that that battle has finally made you no longer confused and found the direction of your life."
"Yes, sir." Ledia said firmly: "I can no longer bear the monotonous and ordinary life in the past. I want to live as wonderful as two sirs, even if it will cost me the price of my life."
"I support your determination." Lina smiled and nodded: "I hope you can go well and have the most exciting and brilliant life. Since you have chosen adventurers and are nearby, your headquarters should be located in the Capital of Knowledge."
"Yes. But we don't have a headquarters yet." Ledia said shyly: "Our team is just starting out and does not have enough funds to rent buildings as headquarters near the capital for a long time, so we can only rent hotels temporarily during our return to the city. But now we have completed four tasks and the public funds are slowly increasing. If we continue to work hard for another seven or eight months, we should be able to have a long-term station."
"Great, congratulations." Lina congratulated her sincerely: "We must tell us then that we will go and celebrate."
"Thank you, sir." Ledia said with joy on her face: "I will definitely not forget to notify you at that time."
"By the way, our headquarters is at No. 6 Fox Street, and you should be able to find it in the guild information. You can ask us any questions in the future, and we will try our best to answer them." Lina turned around and asked Katherine, "Sister, no problem."
"Of course." Catherine said seriously: "Your friends are everyone's friends and can come to your house anytime."
"What about me?" Panis leaned over and pointed at his nose and said, "I want to enjoy this kind of treatment, too."
"You?" The girls looked at Panis with contempt together: "You can do it if you don't sneak into the tavern to make some messy drinkers."
"Uh, then forget it." Panis tilted his head and weighed it for a moment, decisively threw his request into the sea of fog: "It's more important to go to the tavern."
"Haha." Ledia covered her mouth and laughed: "The adults are very interesting."
"Okay, you guys work hard. We have to work hard too." Lina made a cheerful move to Ledia: "Come on, we will see you in the Holy City in the future."
"Thank you, sir, I will definitely work hard." Ledia looked at Lina's back gratefully and said firmly.
"Haha, it's really good to change others' future inadvertently." After a distance, Lina said happily: "If I hadn't been sure whether such a change is good or bad for the other party, maybe I would have fallen in love with this kind of behavior."
"It's better not." Catherine walked beside Lina and persuaded: "It's better to leave the future to fate."
"Hey, it seems we've already walked through the entire market." Panis pointed to a narrow passage made of wooden walls in front and said, "It should be the one leading to the rest area they mentioned."
"It should be." Catherine looked at the common timer set up in the middle of the market: "It's half an hour away from the assembly time. Go in in advance and take a look."
After passing through the narrow passage, there is an area close to the size of the market in front, which is used as a rest area for the entourage of each caravan to rest and use. The rest area is full of tents, with only the center and the edge. There are more than ten scattered simple wooden houses, and I don’t know what it is for. At the center of the rest area, there is the largest wooden house in the entire rest area, which can accommodate hundreds of people based on the area. Looking at the sign on the wooden house, it should be a temporary pub operated by the Commercial Federation. The four people naturally walked into the pub. At this time, lunch time had passed, and there were not many people in the pub. There were only seven or eight guests.
"Huh." Just now passing by a female guest who was dining, Catherine suddenly frowned and said quietly: "Strange, I really want to see this woman somewhere."
"I don't remember it." The other three people secretly glanced at the woman eating, shook their heads and said, "I probably haven't seen it before."
"Maybe we've met somewhere before." Catherine said uncertainly: "There are so many adventurers and mercenaries here, and there will inevitably be familiar faces. Forget it, go to the bar to sit."
"Hi, wait a moment." The woman behind him who was talking suddenly stopped everyone: "I actually met you."
"You are?" Catherine turned around in confusion and asked, "We know each other?"
"Of course." The lady stopped eating and carefully wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin, then said with a strange smile: "I want to return to the team."
