Chapter 42 The Unstoppable Undercurrent
After leaving Viana's division tower, Rollin did not delay for a moment and immediately rushed to the sword and rose mercenaries in a carriage.
His current mission is to track down the use of spell crystal. The best line at present is Valos who escaped last night. As long as he finds that guy, he can reasonably know the purpose of spell crystals to open the portal.
If everything goes well, he can even prevent the portal from opening... As soon as this thought pops up, Rollin smiles bitterly.
‘Do you prevent the portal from opening? Alas, I can only think about it.’
Luo Lin knew that opening the portal of the interplane was the big plan of the master behind the scenes, and it had been planned for several years. On the Starlight Continent, the Destruction God Cult is actually a huge underground organization that is unimaginable.
Even in Vendome, with his power, no, even the power of the emerald dragon Viana is not enough to truly prevent the opening of the Vendome portal, and at most it will only delay.
With the power of the Destruction God Cult, one of the portals that opened was blocked, and they would definitely start re-planning the other.
The current situation is like an unstoppable undercurrent. If you block one mouth, it will emerge from another mouth.
Nothing can be organized.
"What I can do is to improve my strength as much as possible along the previous life, and then at the last moment, save Viana as much as I can." Rollin sighed.
At this moment, he remembered the various obstacles and accidents he encountered in his previous life when he was carrying out the main mission. Those were actually some small exposures of huge underground power. When he was playing, he felt that Rollin was no big deal, but he was terrified at this time.
When the carriage arrives at the commercial area, Harrington and the Wolf get off the car. They will retain their identity as the city guard, because this identity can provide them with a lot of convenience, so their daily patrol work cannot be stopped.
Of course, there is no need for Rollin. In order to track down the line, he must have a lot of free time, and a fixed patrol mission is not suitable for him.
The carriage continued to drive, and finally a remote alley stopped at the entrance of a remote alley. The mercenary group's external storefront was inside the alley, and the place was a little off, but the rent of the house was low. Besides, the mercenary group was not a shop that relied on customer flow.
Rollin and Horn got out of the carriage and walked more than a meter into the alley. They saw a small courtyard with the sign of a mercenary group hanging on it.
This place is really cold, with a deserted door. From time to time, a few people are in a hurry and the wind is blowing under their feet.
The two entered the yard. A young man who was training swordsmanship against a wooden stake dummy stopped his hand and turned around and asked, "Hello, what's there... Oh, it's you, Luo Lin, I know you, do you have anything to help?"
Luo Lin had dealt with this mercenary group twice. For well-informed mercenary group, remembering the information of past customers is a must-have homework. They already knew that Abu was the pseudonym of Luo Lin, and they also knew that this false identity was no longer important to Luo Lin, so they called him by his name.
Luo Lin also knew the name of this young man. His name was Beifa. The capable subordinate of the leader of the mercenary gang, Lu Yisha, was also an ordinary assassin at level 10.
He asked with a smile: "Do you have your head? I have a big deal to find her."
"Big deal? How big is it?" the young man asked with a smile. They were used to storms and had never seen any major events.
"At least one gold coin."
"...Okay, it's really big, I can't make the decision. Come with me." The young man waved to Rollin and signaled him to follow.
The building is quite spacious, in addition to the outer courtyard, there is also the inner courtyard. Here, Luo Lin saw Lu Yisha, and she was not idle either, and was practicing seriously with two willow-leaf-like light swords in her hand.
Perhaps because he heard the sound, Lu Yisha glanced at the door. After seeing that the person coming was an acquaintance, she did not stop and continued to concentrate on practicing.
Rollin did not bother and stood aside with Horn patiently, while the young man who had brought them in before quietly retreated.
After waiting for about ten minutes, Lu Yisha put away her light sword, then drew a bucket of water from the well beside her, soaked a towel and wiped the sweat off her forehead, and then asked, "Young man, what's the difficulty again?"
While talking, she looked at Luo Lin up and down, and saw that he was wearing a well-designed mail, and his sword and shield had also been replaced. They were all good things, especially the shield, which seemed to be magical equipment, and this thing required at least one gold coin. She couldn't help but be surprised. Looking at this, is this little guy still a rich man? Or is it an illegitimate child of a nobleman?
Rollin first introduced to Horn: "Here, this is their heads, Deerisha."
"Luyisha, this is my friend, Horn."
Horn looked at Lu Yisha with a little straight look. He only felt that the woman was particularly charming and seductive. He was stunned for a while before he came to his senses and hurriedly said hello, "I'm glad to know you."
"Ho~ Rollin, you have many friends." Lu Yisha teased and looked at Horn: "Young man, I like the look you look at me, which makes me feel that I am still young and beautiful."
Horne had never seen such a fierce and direct woman, and her face turned red and hesitated and could not speak.
"Haha, Qing'er. He is much worse than you, Rollin." Lu Yisha shook her head: "Okay, let's talk about serious matters, what's the point of help?"
Rollin didn't say anything directly. He first took out a mumbled purse, then opened the purse slightly, revealing the yellow color inside: "This is the reward you will get."
"You are so generous." Lu Yisha smiled. There were at least one gold coins in this wallet, but a huge sum of money. The mercenary group's annual income was about this amount, but those incomes would have to be deducted from various expenses, and the remaining ones were less than twenty gold coins.
Twenty gold coins are Lu Yisha's net income for a year, so this gold coins are very attractive, but Lu Yisha also knows that huge rewards mean huge risks. Before she figures out the specific matter, she cannot take risks with her subordinates' lives.
So she waited patiently for Rollin to tell the specific task.
"I want to find someone, whose name is Valos, a fallen Frost Mage who believes in the Demon God, was injured by me. I want you to find him."
"Magic? Believe in the Demon God? It sounds full of danger. If possible, I hope to know more details." Lu Yisha frowned.
"Yes." Luo Lin turned to look at the lower courtyard and smiled, "But I don't think this courtyard is suitable for saying such things."
If this is heard by someone, it may have bad consequences.
"Come with me." Lu Yisha waved and walked into the house next to her first. After entering the house, she opened a secret door hidden behind the weapon rack, revealing the entrance to an underground secret room: "If you are brave enough, just talk to me."
Rowlin smiled and was about to follow, but Horn pulled him: "Rowlin, if she was just trying to plot against our gold coins..."
Horn's meaning is very clear. If he enters this secret room without knowing the knowledge, if the other party secretly seeks money and kills him, they will call him "Heaven's response" and "The earth will not work."
Being cautious is a good thing. If Rollin didn't know what might happen in the future, he would be as cautious as Horn. But now, he gently patted Horn's hand and smiled, "Don't worry, I forgot to tell you that she is Harrington's real sister."
Horn was relieved. He and Harrington were comrades-in-arms in life and death, and his elder sister would definitely not be bad.
After entering the secret room, Lu Yisha had already lit a candle. When she saw the two of them following, she smiled teasingly: "Rolin, your friend is a cautious person, not bad."
Rollin laughed and asked, "Do you have paper and pen? I vaguely remember Valos's face, and I can draw it."
“Of course there is.”
After taking the paper and pen, Luo Lin drew with the memory. His level was not very high, but he was good at grasping the key points. Although his appearance may not be consistent, Shen Yun must have it.
While drawing, Rollin introduced Valos's message: "He is the master brother of Disentas. Do you know Disentas? Oh, you can tell you know him by looking at your expression. During the fight with him, he used a total of four spells, namely Frost Chain, Ice Barrier, Spell Silence, and Ice Hockey Technique... Why is your face so dark?"
Lu Yisha was already angry: "You are just planning to kill us! I won't take on your mission!"
The power of the mage himself is nothing, the key is that he is the master’s brother! This makes people feel irritated.
"I know you're worried about Disentas, but don't worry, Disentas won't intervene. Because Valos has betrayed him, he is a traitor."
Lu Yisha suddenly breathed a sigh of relief: "You should have said it earlier. Then your task is to find him and ask us to take his life?"
"No. If possible, capture him alive... Of course, he is very dangerous. After finding him, you can notify me, and I will deal with it." Luo Lin said.
He had already drawn the portrait, handed it to Lu Yisha, and then added: "I cut his back with a sword and was seriously injured. This was last night. I think he wouldn't be able to heal so quickly even with magic."
Lu Yisha took the portrait and looked at it a few times, commenting: "It's quite a gloomy person, but are you sure you can deal with him? Don't you need help?"
"If you don't charge more commissions, just help." Luo Lin smiled. He didn't know what kind of obstruction he would encounter when arresting Valos. It would be good to have a helper.
"You are really stingy, but okay, for you are a friend of Harrington, I personally help you for free."
The details of the task have been agreed, and Luo Lin generously left half of the deposit, and then got up and wanted to leave. As soon as he made some moves, his ears suddenly moved, and then sat back, took a pen and wrote on the paper: "Someone may eavesdrop on the door."
The power of the Destruction God Cult is really everywhere. He sighed secretly, knowing that he is no longer as insignificant as before. He has now entered the opponent's sight and is being targeted.
