Julianne rode the Earth Dragon and took a long way back to Copper Mountain City. After arriving, she inquired about Cohen's whereabouts.
I just wandered around the Adventurer's Guild for a long time without making any progress.
However, I found out that Meili and Tatanir were in the orphanage. I thought that the two deputy leaders would definitely return to their base. I might as well find them and secretly follow them to the base of the Holy Spirit Adventure Group. I still worry about not being able to see Cohen.
?
Although Cohen seems to be different now, after all, they grew up together as childhood sweethearts. In the past, Cohen was still his tail and only knew how to revolve around him. I don’t believe that I can’t convince him!
Thinking of this, I secretly ran to the orphanage to investigate.
Merry and Tartaniel did help in the orphanage, and the director took in many orphans. During the war, many families fled from the surrounding cities, and many children lost their families due to the war.
Julianne secretly observed near the orphanage, keeping her eyes locked on Mellie and Tataniel, while trying to avoid being discovered.
In fact, when she appeared, Meili had already noticed her.
This is the disparity in experience among the adventurers. Julianne is just a novice with no tracking experience. Meili and Tataniel, under the training of Jia Zhengjin, have made rapid progress in various missions, and their tracking and anti-tracking abilities are also very strong.
So when Julianne was hiding in a corner and peeking at them, Merry and Tatanir, who had clearly discovered it, pretended not to know, but turned their backs to Julianne and whispered while they were busy.
"Here she comes again!" Tartaniel whispered.
"Um!"
"What does she want to do?"
"have no idea!"
"Should we go over and talk to her?"
"No rush."
...
After discussion, the two decided to ignore Julianne and continue their work.
Julianne didn't know that they had discovered her, so she still maintained a secret observation posture.
Mellie and Tartaniel were busy in the orphanage until the sun went down and it started to get dark, and then they said goodbye to the director.
The two left the orphanage, rode on the earth dragon and moved toward the city gate.
Julianne followed secretly, knowing that the two of them must be returning to the adventurer station, which was exactly what she wanted.
Follow Merry and Tartaniel to the outside of the city, and try to keep a certain distance while riding the earth dragon. Don't get too close, otherwise you will be easily noticed, and don't get too far away, otherwise you will be thrown away.
But in fact, Merry and Tatanir always knew that she was following behind.
"She has been chasing us. I'm afraid she wants to sneak close to the station." Tatanir whispered to Mellie.
"I see." Meili nodded helplessly.
"What should we do?" Tataniel asked, "Cohen definitely doesn't want her to go there."
"We'll get rid of her on the road!" Merry replied.
"Okay!" Both of them are experienced adventurers, and it is very easy to get rid of newbies. What's more, the sky is getting dark, which is more conducive to their actions.
Julianne didn't know what Melly and Tartaniel were thinking. She thought the two people in front of them didn't notice her from beginning to end.
Following them all the way to the corner ahead, Merry and Tartaniel's figures were blocked by the trees at the corner and were completely invisible.
Julianne did not dare to catch up quickly, so she continued to move forward at a normal speed because she wanted to ensure that both parties were at a safe distance. Anyway, there were no forks on this road, and it basically went straight forward!
She was right to think so, but when she rode the earth dragon to the corner and looked down into the distance, she found that Merry and Tartaniel had disappeared!
Logically speaking, the two people should still be in a position that can be caught by his sight. How could they suddenly disappear?
unless......
She turned her head and looked at the woods on the roadside, wondering if the station was nearby?
Earth dragons cannot move easily in the woods because they are too large.
If Merry and Tartaniel were riding earth dragons, they would have been discovered long ago.
Therefore, they must have collected the earth dragons and walked on foot.
The question is where did the people go?
No matter what, Julianne was unwilling to give up, so she quickly collected the ground dragon and rushed into the woods, looking for traces everywhere.
When she entered the woods, Merry and Tartaniel emerged from the grass on the roadside ahead. They looked at each other with proud smiles, turned around and ran quickly along the road. After going some distance, they summoned the earth dragon and hurried before Julianne discovered it.
leave.
Julianne's vision was limited in the woods. Of course, she didn't know that Merry and Tartaniel had left long ago, and she was still trying to find traces of the two of them inside, quite persistently.
It's just that the sky is getting darker and darker, and the visibility is getting less and less obvious, which makes her feel a little uneasy.
On the other side, after Jia Zhengjin finished the interview and broke up with Meili and Tatanir, he and Hal quietly came to the city lord's mansion. The three giants of Tongshan City discussed the issues after the imperial army came and how to deal with the Dawn Front Alliance.
there.
The three of them spent the whole day making plans and had lunch and dinner at the City Lord's Mansion.
When the discussion was almost over and they came out of the city lord's mansion, Jia Zhengjin and Hal came to the door of the Adventurer's Guild together.
"Then I'll go back to the station first and notify you immediately of any situation here!" Jia Zhengjin summoned Earth Dragon.
"Well! Calculate the time, the rebels will arrive soon, either tonight or tomorrow!" Hal said, "I hope your suggestions are useful, and I hope the rebels can talk rationally."
"There is no problem with this!" Jia Zhengjin replied affirmatively, "I have dealt with them in Frost Dragon City, and in short, it is what we said."
"Okay! See you tomorrow then."
"See you tomorrow!"
After the two said goodbye, Hal walked to the gate of the Adventurer's Guild, and Jia Zhengjin got on the dragon and was about to leave.
Just as I set off, I heard a familiar voice from behind: "Cohen! Cohen!"
Subconsciously, I turned around and saw someone leading a bullock cart with an anxious look on his face. Wasn't he Julianne's biological father?
He is the owner of a grocery store. Apart from purchasing goods, he basically carries them around the village. Especially at this time, he must be at home. How could he appear near the Adventurer's Guild?
"Uncle Suolang, why are you..." Jia Zhengjin could only jump off the ground dragon and look back at him.
"Cohen, where's Julianne? Have you seen Julianne?" Solang came over in a panic and asked anxiously.
"Julian? Didn't she go home after the interview?" Jia Zhengjin asked quickly.
"No, I am back. But when I asked her to check the store and come over to restock the goods, she left a letter and ran out!" Solang took out the animal skin letter from his arms and said anxiously, "Julian has been
They are very obedient. This is the first time that I have violated my will. Did you really not see her? She came here specifically to find you! I went to the Adventurer's Guild to ask, and many adventurers said that there is indeed a girl named Julianne.
The child has been asking about your whereabouts. Is she in danger at this late hour? There are so many bad people in the city, what if..."
Seeing that Suolang was extremely worried and frightened, Jia Zhengjin thought to herself that she was still causing trouble for herself!
