Snake nodded: "I know what I did was inappropriate."
"If you are willing to fight or suffer, if they hire you, they have to bear the corresponding risks. There is nothing wrong with it. But I still have some questions..."
Yeze asked with some confusion: "Since you know the whereabouts of the scepter, wouldn't it be over if the Holy Land directly sends people to find and retrieve it? But why is there a reward for the scepter? And you, why do you want to retrieve the scepter?
The hope of the staff is placed in outsiders?"
"That's an insult!" A flash of anger flashed across Snake's face: "Some bastards deliberately inflicted insults on the teacher. If it hadn't been for them, how could the teacher have died of depression..."
Looking at Snake with an angry face, Ye Ze felt a little sad.
Everyone in the world has heard of the greatness of the Holy Land of the Snowy Mountains, but now it seems that even the Holy Land will inevitably attract the attention of the common people.
"I'm not interested in the scepter, but as the leader of the group, I must ensure the credibility of the demon hunting group." Ye Ze said: "Let's talk about the conditions. How will you cooperate with me."
Snake said: "The person who issued the mission only wanted the promise of the Snow Mountain, and he will eventually return the scepter, so our goals do not conflict. I can guarantee that he can get that promise, but the scepter must
Hand it over with my own hands."
Ye Ze said to himself, my employer's goal is to kill me. But there is no conflict. In the end, maybe we can get rid of Surcock without damaging the credibility of the demon hunting group.
"Okay. I hope we can have a happy cooperation." Ye Ze smiled.
"I am the unlucky Snake." Snake looked into Ye Ze's eyes: "Aren't you worried at all?"
Ye Ze's smile did not diminish: "If you can come out alive, I can do it even more."
……………………
The brief conversation with Snake made Ye Ze understand a lot, but he still had some doubts.
For example, why did Snake tell Ye Ze so many secrets and also believe that Ye Ze would be able to achieve his goal... just to break the mirror ghost's barrier? Ye Ze didn't think it would be that simple.
But now that we have just reached an agreement with Snake, it is unrealistic to want to know too much. At least the mission goal has been determined. As long as Snake wants to take the scepter out of the desert, even if he plays tricks, he will not be able to do it. If he can't even control
Without any confidence in this situation, Yeze would no longer be Yeze.
……………………
After the guide was settled, Yeze began to formally prepare to enter the Desert of Despair.
In the past twenty years, Snake has been in and out of the Desert of Despair several times without any damage. Naturally, he has gained a lot of valuable experience, which makes Ye Ze happy and troubled.
Needless to say, I am happy. With Snake’s advice, my confidence in surviving in the desert and completing tasks has improved a lot. But the troubling thing is that Snake told Ye Ze that if you want to enter the desert, the sand camel is indispensable.
. Without Sand Camel, the probability of surviving in the Desert of Despair would not exceed 30%. And the possibility of completing the mission would not be 10%.
Through the conflict with the Hand of Light, Yeze realized that it was basically impossible to rent a sand camel in the city.
So, Ye Ze gave an order, and the whole Dark Hand team took action, rushing out of Brat City like a swarm, and began a crazy search for sand camels.
However, three days later...
"I'm really sorry for you. These five sand camels were just dug out from the grave..."
Ye Ze looked at the five sand camels in front of him with emotion on his face.
There are five sand camels, one is thinner than the other, and one is older than the other. Almost all the hair has fallen out, and there is one who can't even stand firmly. Maris is supporting him on the side.
Victor looked sad: "Captain, there really are none. If you want an ordinary camel, it would be easier..."
Yeze looked back at Snake, who shook his head and said: "There are many beast monsters in the Desert of Despair, and ordinary camels can only stay on the outside. If you go deeper, you will stop moving out of fear. When you encounter danger, you will also get up.
It doesn’t do anything.”
Berners said angrily: "It's all those bastards from the Hand of Light. They have bought so many sand camels. There are more camels than people. It's impossible to stew and eat so many!"
Snake said: "In addition to riding, sand camels are mainly used to carry food and feed them. Naturally, the more the better."
"Hand of light..." Ye Ze seemed to be thinking about something, his eyes flashed, and he asked Hickli: "Have they made any movement during this period? Have the main members arrived?"
"Probably not yet." Hickory replied: "I have been monitoring their station these days. Since the last conflict, except for shopping, their people have rarely left, and no new reinforcements have arrived. However, since then,
They learned from the chat among the people who were out that in five or six days, about 500 people will arrive, and it seems that a person named Jared will lead the team."
"Jared..." Fakhla was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "Why is he even here?"
"Do you know him?" Ye Ze asked.
"Hmm..." A complicated look flashed across Fakhla's face, and she said: "He is the deputy commander. He usually assists the commander Monroe to coordinate the overall situation, and rarely participates in operations personally. If it is really him, it means that the bright future
The Hand takes this mission very seriously."
"Isn't the deputy captain Birba?" Yeze asked subconsciously.
"The Hand of Light has three deputy leaders, each with their own division of responsibilities." Fakhla explained: "Birba is very powerful and is mainly responsible for some more hostile tasks. Jared is very young and is not as strong as Birba.
, but he has a very good mind and plays the role of a think tank within the Hand of Light. This mission should be led by him."
"Oh..." Yeze nodded and asked a little strangely: "You know a lot. Is the connection between the Royal Academy and the Hand of Light so close?"
Fakhla's face was a little complicated and she said nothing.
Maris seemed to be afraid that Ye Ze would be unhappy, so he explained for Fakhla: "We don't have much contact with Fahra at ordinary times, and other teachers don't know so much. It's just because the leader, Monroe, is Fakhla's uncle, and Jared is also with Fahra.
Hera is very familiar..."
"I'm tired and want to take a rest." Fakhla glared at Maris, turned around and walked into the house.
Maris scratched his head, not knowing what he had done wrong, but he did not dare to speak again.
Ye Ze stared blankly at Fakhla's back, muttering to himself.
The composition of my demon hunting group is becoming more and more complex. There are imperial princesses, grandchildren of great pirate leaders... Now, even the niece of the leader of the Hand of Light is a member of my group...
Ye Ze saw that Fakhla had something to hide, so he didn't want to ask deeply, but he was confused and unbearable. Ye Ze only knew that Fakhla was from a noble family, and he didn't ask anything else deeply. Ye Ze was very tolerant, but he couldn't allow his own
There is an element of instability in the team. Especially since Fakhla is a veteran of his own business and has a deep relationship with him, Yeze doesn't want any misunderstandings to occur.
At this moment, Angelina and Elaine walked in from outside one after another.
For some reasons, Angelina has always been hostile to Elaine. After getting along with her for a few days, Angelina also found that Elaine was a little different. The hostility was gone, but the boredom was still there.
No matter where Angelina went, whether she was eating, sleeping or going to the bathroom, Elaine would follow her. If Angelina hadn't forcefully refused, Elaine would have wanted to sleep under the same bed with her.
After a few days, Angelina actually had the idea of letting Ye Ze take Elaine in.
Seeing these two people, Yeze quickly stopped Elaine: "Wait a minute, I have something to ask you."
Elaine was stopped by Yeze, and Angelina ran into her room as if running away, closing the door. Elaine stamped her feet and said angrily: "What are you doing? Delaying my business! She finally agreed to eat with me!"
"
Ye Ze rolled his eyes and said helplessly: "I won't take you long, just a moment."
"If you fart, hurry up!" Elaine looked impatient.
Ye Ze controlled his emotions, told about Fakhla, and asked: "How much do you know about her?"
"It's just such nonsense..." Elaine looked unhappy, but she still gave a brief introduction.
……………………
It turns out that Fakhla was born in a declining aristocratic family. Her parents died young and she was raised by her uncle Monroe. Although Monroe is the leader of the Hand of Light Demon Hunting Group and the ninth-level golden magic sealer, he is unable to support himself alone. Among the nobles,
Among them, his status was embarrassing, with only the title of Viscount. Monroe had no children and had always been very fond of Fakhla. He wanted to give her a good home and not have to work as hard as herself.
Jared, Romenas' nephew, is seven years older than Fakhla. He fell in love with her at first sight when Fakhla was sixteen. Now, the thirty-two-year-old Jared is already a golden girl.
He was granted the title of Magician and Viscount, but he never married because of Fakhla.
Although Jared is older than Fakhla, he has outstanding abilities and an extraordinary background. Moreover, Romenas has been considering giving the surname Snow and officially becoming a member of the royal family. With the idea of finding a good home for his niece, Monroe has always been interested in the two.
Deliberately matched, Jared became the deputy leader of the Hands of Light with two golden strengths. One was his mental ability, and the other was inseparable from Monroe's promotion.
But the problem is, Fakhla has no interest in Jared at all. With Monroe's deliberate matchmaking and Jared's pursuit, she becomes more and more disgusted.
After graduating from the Royal Academy, Fakhla originally wanted to join the Hand of Light. But because Jared became the deputy leader, he changed his mind and insisted on staying at the school to teach.
In the Royal Academy, although there was also Maris, he was not that annoying. Maris only stayed by Fakhla's side silently and did not make any overstep.
These matters about Fakhla are not secrets in the aristocratic circles of the imperial capital. After Elaine explained, she went to pester Angelina again.
Ye Ze sighed. Fakhla and Maris are now flirting with each other, and Jared is obviously completely out of business. By then, Monroe and Jared will definitely be jealous of Maris, and they have to cover it up.
Come, the conflict between the hands of darkness and the hands of light becomes deeper.
In this case...
A sinister light flashed in Ye Ze's eyes.
If you have too many lice, you won’t be itchy, if you have too many debts, you won’t have to worry. Anyway, I already have so many grievances with the Hand of Light, and I don’t care if there are more...
I’d also like to borrow some camels from them for going into the desert. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site) and give rewards. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
