Chapter 227 Sweet's Request
Chapter 227 Sweet’s Request
Suri stood in the courtyard in front of Sweet's palace and did not see Sister Sophie or the others.
"Miss Suri."
When the palace door opens, Sweet's tall body can be seen at a glance.
"Dear King Sweet." Su Rui bowed to King Sweet as the customs dictate, and asked with a little trepidation: "Is there any news about my sister and her team?"
Sweet replied: "Not yet, I have some things that I want Miss Suri to help me with."
"Me?" Su Rui pointed to herself, hesitated and then nodded: "Of course, if you need it, I will be happy to help you. Of course, I hope to get news about my sister and them as soon as possible."
Sweet smiled: "That's not a problem."
"Then what problem did you encounter?" Su Rui was actually a little confused and didn't quite understand why the district king would entrust the matter to her, a person who had just arrived here.
"You should believe in your own strength."
A voice sounded in Suri's heart.
"Loris?"
"The strength of the ninth level Chen level is among the masters here." Loris saw her confused look and kindly explained to her for the first time: "Your strength is because of another power in your soul.
That power is very strong, but it is sealed. The more you can get, the stronger you will be."
For those other professions who have worked hard to improve their levels, Suri's advancement can be regarded as cheating.
"Recently, the number of residents in the three small towns in the southwest region of our district has been decreasing. I hope Miss Su Rui can go and help check." Sweet waved his hand and said: "Of course, I will give you one.
Team, the command of the team belongs to you."
Under Sweet's instructions, Suri was taken by his men to meet several other people.
"Everyone, this is Su Rui. She will be your captain. I hope you can find out the reason why the residents are missing. The king will reward you heavily."
Su Rui observed the surrounding environment. This was a side hall in the palace. There were only a few sky-high white stone pillars in the hall. Her team members were standing opposite her, looking at her with unfriendly eyes.
.
There are four people in the team besides her. The leader is a young man, wearing a brown vest, brown leather boots, a cowboy hat, a pair of glasses hanging on the hat, yellow hair, and slender legs.
, brown eyes, looking a bit unruly.
The second person was a thin man, dressed in black from top to bottom, wrapped himself very tightly, and his face was covered with a piece of black cloth. Only a pair of black eyes and a pair of thick, thick hair were exposed.
Black eyebrows.
The man behind him looked very simple, wearing a coarse cloth, with half of his chest exposed, bronze skin, and a tall stature similar to Harrison's anthropomorphic form.
The last one looked at the long sword hanging on his waist. Su Rui speculated that he should be a swordsman. Looking at his brown curly hair sticking to his head, Su Rui was a little curious and wanted to reach out and touch it.
The four people introduced themselves first.
Troy, dressed as a cowboy, is a ranger, and he has a companion, but he is not with him now.
Blumer, the man in black, is a hunter.
Tall Eugene is a war craftsman and the only "local" from District 17.
And of course Rupert, the curly-haired swordsman.
"Hello, I'm Suri."
"Are you the captain of the team that passed through Walker Forest?" Troy came over suddenly, narrowed his narrow eyes, and almost poked Suri with his tall nose.
"I didn't expect it to be such a young lady. It does look a bit unbelievable." Eugene looked at him with surprise in his eyes. Suri also had a good impression of him. He always felt that his temperament was similar to that of Layton.
The uncle is very similar.
Suri smiled back and glanced at Bloomer with his peripheral vision.
Troy yawned, leaned against the pillar, and said lazily: "You don't need to pay attention to him, he just rarely talks like this, like a cold snake."
Bloomer glanced at Troy with cold eyes, but Troy didn't care, and even closed his eyes with the corners of his lips slightly raised.
Bloomer snorted coldly, Troy tilted his head, Su Rui heard a "ding" sound, and then saw where Troy's head had been, a dagger was deeply inserted into the pillar, and with the dagger
There are cracks spreading around the center.
If Troy hadn't dodged in time, Suri might have lost a teammate before he even started.
Regarding this strange atmosphere within the team, Suri could only keep smiling.
"Don't fight anymore." Rupert looked a little honest.
"Miss Su Rui, please don't worry about it." Eugene waved his hand towards Su Rui, "I don't know if you already know about our mission."
This atmosphere was really more dangerous than the previous one. Su Rui looked away and said: "There are missing residents in the southwest area, and we need to go investigate."
"Yes, but Miss Su Rui, you must have just come to us and are a bit unfamiliar with us. Lord Weir just asked me to give you a brief introduction."
Weir is the minister who sent Suri just now.
"OK."
"Miss Suri." Harrison pushed the door in from the outside and strode forward panting. When he woke up, he found that Miss Suri was not in the room. After asking, he learned that she had been brought here.
Suri relaxed instantly when she saw Harrison. She was really worried about being with a group of strangers, especially when there were two weirdos among them.
"Let me introduce to you, this is my companion Harrison." With that, Suri silently approached Harrison.
After the other four people saw Harrison, their eyes changed instantly. It was obvious that they thought Harrison would be a better companion than Suri.
"Mr. Eugene, please tell me specifically what the problems are in the southwest area we are going to on this mission."
"Okay." Eugene took out a map from his arms and spread it out on the ground with his rough, calloused hands.
It can be seen from the map that the entire District 17 is shaped like an unfolded fan, with a large area bordering Walker Forest.
"This is the southwest area." Eugene pointed to one of the points, and then drew a circle with his finger. "These are the towns closest to the missing people. We learned about it, and there seems to be some patterns in the disappearance of the residents.
, people disappear every month on the full moon day, which makes local residents panic, and the whereabouts of the missing people have never been found."
Suri thought: "Are these people still alive?"
Eugene said solemnly: "No, they were already dead, just one minute before you came here."
"How do you know?" Su Rui's heart sank.
"This is the special thing about District 17. Our energy here is divided according to population. There is a huge information database here." Eugene walked to the stone pillar and suddenly pressed a switch, and a message appeared on the wall in front of him.
An image of space.
The shape of the image is the terrain of District 17, and a huge fan appears in front of Suri.
Su Rui opened her mouth slightly, feeling a little shocked.
There are many light spots on the map, like the starry sky.
"These are the life points of everyone in District 17. You can see that the southwest area is much darker."
Eugene said, Suri took a look, it was indeed the case.
In this case, Su Rui didn't understand and asked: "Why can't these people be found?"
"They were probably dragged into Walker Forest." Eugene shook his head.
Suri immediately understood why King Sweet asked her for help. It was probably because she had come out of Walker Forest alive and well.
About to enter Walker Forest again, Suri sighed softly and asked, "When will we set off?"
"Tomorrow." Eugene pointed his index finger.
