The two people sat quietly on top of the canyon, the shadows behind them lengthened little by little as the sun moved, and time around them seemed to start to slow down.
While they were waiting, they even saw scattered Boers passing by in the canyon below. It seemed that their actions last night really caused a lot of trouble for these guys.
Then, at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, Carl suddenly saw a figure walking to the edge of the cliff on the other side of the canyon, and this figure was none other than Herbert the Fengyuan.
Although they all arrived here on time, they chose different directions. They were located on the left and right of the canyon. If it weren't for the eyesight enhanced by magic, ordinary people might not be able to see each other from such a distance.
appearance.
When Karl saw the other person, Herbert obviously saw him too.
It was too silly to shout and communicate across a canyon, so the Fen Yiguan waved and pointed forward, and then continued to move forward above the canyon.
Seeing Herbert's actions, Karl also understood it.
So he patted Seliel beside him and said:
"Mr. Herbert is already here, it's time to go."
Just now, Ceryl was looking down at the scenery in the canyon. After Karl patted her, he raised his head and looked around.
After looking around behind her, Cyril didn't find Herbert's figure, so she asked with some confusion:
"Why didn't I see it?"
"Where are the people?"
Standing up from the ground, Karl patted the dust on his body and reminded:
"Don't just stare at our side, he's on the other side."
"Oh?" After hearing Karl's prompt, Cyril turned her head and saw Herbert on the other side of the canyon. Only then did she realize where he was.
"Hey hey hey..."
Smiling awkwardly, Cyril also got up and followed Karl. The three people in a team just followed the direction of the canyon and began to chase the sun.
It must be said that this canyon is long enough, and with their extraordinary footsteps, it was almost dark before they found a place where they could meet.
When the three people gathered together again, the night sky had replaced the daytime sun to occupy the sky above their heads. After last night's battle plan, after a whole day, they finally reorganized the team to fight against the false gods.
"I also saw the fireworks last night. Is everything going well on your end?"
After seeing Karl, the Fen Yiguan's first concern was this issue.
"Of course, I took care of the commander and his stand-in together, and also took care of all the three extraordinary guards around him. No one found any trace of us during the whole process."
After answering Herbert's question, Karl also asked:
"How is the situation over there? Is there no problem?"
Shaking his head, Herbert began to describe his experience last night:
"From the time I set the fire to the time I retreated after seeing your fireworks, I didn't encounter a single extraordinary person during the entire process. They were all ordinary people's troops. Naturally, these people could not pose any threat to me."
Yes, there were only three extraordinary bodyguards around Rubel, and they were all taken care of by himself.
However, considering the situation of the British officer escorts, they are actually better dispersed than the Boers. This is understandable when comparing the strength gap between the two sides.
Since Karl and the others had not slept for two consecutive days, they began to prepare for a rest on the roadside here shortly after rendezvous. After simply eating some dry food at night, they rested in this roughly established camp.
On this night, Carl had a rare dream.
What I dreamed about was the memory of when he and Cyril had just gotten off the boat and experienced Cape Town before meeting Herbert.
Like everyone's dreams, everything in the dream was exactly the same as what he had experienced at the beginning, and it was not until things developed later that they started to be different.
This change occurred when Carl entered the basement of the slum for the second time. It was different from the previous development. Although the women captured around him were still in coma as before, the little girl named Alice was not in a coma this time.
He did not disappear, but he walked out of the cage and stood in front of Karl.
The naked little girl smiled, then gently bent down, and when she stood up again, her clothes had turned into a gorgeous dress.
"Mr. Karl, we meet again."
Initially, Karl was unconscious in the blur, but when this change happened, he immediately realized that this was his dream. At the same time, the little girl in front of him was probably not a product of his dream, but had been invaded by some strange means.
your own dreams.
Looking at Alice in front of him with a solemn expression, Karl said:
"Who the hell are you?"
"What's the purpose of entering my dream?"
After Karl spoke, the environment in the surrounding basement also changed. The originally solid ground under his feet began to turn into wooden boards, and the surrounding walls began to fade away.
Almost in the blink of an eye, this place turned into a three-masted sailing ship sailing on the ocean. At the same time, the surrounding environment began to become clearer and clearer. Karl could even smell the smell of sea water from the sea breeze, which was not like it at all.
It was a false and ethereal dream just now.
"As you can see, I am Alice." In response to Karl's question, the girl in front of her pinched her sleeves with her hands and continued with an emphasis: "Alice from the dream world."
"I asked you to come here tonight because I hope you can help me with something."
"Help?" Karl frowned.
"How can I help you, and why should I help you?"
"The [Decapitating Blade] must have helped you a lot during this period. As its true owner, I can completely transfer its ownership to you after this matter is over."
When he mentioned [Decapitating Blade], Karl thought of Marianne from before. Could that mysterious guy be related to the Alice in front of him?
Seeing the change in Karl's eyes, Alice said directly:
"Marian was the last helper I selected, but it's a pity that you got rid of her."
After finishing speaking, the girl smiled and continued: "Of course I don't want to help her get revenge. The most important thing now is that you can help me solve the problems I am facing now."
Just as the girl finished saying this, before Karl had time to respond, the surrounding environment began to become scary.
In an instant, dark clouds covered the sky, and the surrounding air pressure began to change. The gloomy environment almost made people breathless.
At the same time, waves began to rise on the sea one after another, and the boat under Karl's feet also bumped.
When Alice noticed all this, her expression changed drastically, as if something very bad had happened.
