Chanel was stunned for a moment and couldn't answer for a moment. She was originally forced by the situation or the army of Warcraft, so she had no choice but to follow Bediwell and his group to the camp.
But now that the danger has passed for the time being, it's time for her to consider her next move.
Palamedes sighed softly, and then asked: "We can take you in for one night and provide you with shelter until the rescuers arrive at dawn tomorrow. But you won't give up just like that, right?"
Since they were prepared to die, she would definitely not just admit her failure and wait for the rescuers to come and take her back, right?
The knight girl smiled softly and nodded: "Of course. Even if I am the only one left in the knights, I will continue to take the exam and fulfill the unfulfilled wishes of the sisters."
"Oh, that's it ---" Palamedes looked at Chanel with a subtle expression: "We won't help strangers too much. We really will only let you stay for one night. You can leave by yourself tomorrow.
Is there no problem with completing the exam?"
"I will think of a way." The elf girl said firmly.
"Dad, help her, meow!" Saifer finally couldn't help but said: "Leaving her alone in such a deep mountain forest is equivalent to sending her into the belly of a monster. At least use our raft to help her.
She was driven to Mount Jilimanjaro, meow!"
"Well, what should we do about this..." Paramedis looked at the werewolf inquiringly.
"One extra person adds one point of weight. Our raft is already seriously overweight. Do we need to add more people now?" Bediwell complained about this matter.
Saifer quickly advised: "No, the situation is not as bad as you think. The excess weight can be made up by increasing the buoyancy of the hot air balloon. Anyway, we have almost unlimited fuel."
"Don't be stupid, we won't fly in the sky tomorrow." Bedivere shook his head and smiled.
Hot air balloons can fly very high and easily climb over various cliffs, making them ideal for vertical movement.
However, the two huge hot air balloons also brought significant wind resistance, which hindered the rapid progress of the raft------This was a headache for them who were in a hurry.
To achieve true high-speed movement, it is still necessary to stow away the hot air balloon and use an anti-gravity device to float along the ground as in the original design.
The Sudan Everglades they will cross tomorrow is a relatively open and flat plateau (plain?) area, so this is the most suitable place.
"That's even better, meow." Saifei was still stubborn: "Since you don't need to use a hot air balloon to fly, it's not a big deal to carry one more person, meow. How much does Miss Chanel weigh, meow, if she has such a slender figure?"
We can make up for it by throwing away some unnecessary things."
Bediwell sighed: "To put it lightly, don't forget that we still have more than three thousand kilometers to run. The battery of the anti-gravity device will not be able to hold up."
"We clearly have eight sets of anti-gravity devices, why are we so stingy?" Saifer became even more angry.
"That is the backup resource for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow---"
"That means we still have some energy left, nya! How can we still hesitate so much to help one more person, nya?"
"That's enough!" the elf girl shouted, interrupting the argument between the two.
"Really, you don't need to keep arguing about me. I will set off alone tomorrow and won't cause you any more trouble." Chanel said awkwardly.
"Indeed, stop arguing." Palamedes crossed his arms in front of his chest and smiled tolerantly: "If we organize our resources well, we can indeed free up space for one person, and it wouldn't be a bad idea to bring Ms. Chanel with us."
Impossible. However, we cannot help you in vain.
Think of this as a mutually beneficial relationship ---Ms. Chanel, if I bring you along, what benefits can you provide us?"
When asked like this, the dark elf girl was confused: "My hearing can help you provide warning. The Sudan Everglades is full of dangers, I may be able to help."
Bedivere's tense brows relaxed a little.
"This is good, but it's not enough." Palamedes looked like a businessman and started bargaining with Chanel: "What else do you bring with you to facilitate our journey?"
The elf girl thought again, took out the kettle she carried with her, and poured out two small metal devices: "These are the anti-gravity devices you are talking about. My sisters and I were afraid of losing these things, so we scattered them
, each person should bring a few copies. ------If you want more, I'm afraid you have to go back to the place where the raft crashed to get it."
"Well, not bad." Palamedes nodded, "This can make up for your weight. At least you won't cause any trouble for us."
"There's one more." The girl poured out a bag of small pieces of sand and gravel from the kettle. The thing gave off a very subtle light under the night.
"Oh my god ---" Palamedes looked at the small bag of sand, his eyes gleaming: "Is it a light stone mine?"
"Lightstone?" Saifer asked in a low voice.
"It's a natural photon reflector." Bediwell replied: "If you refine this thing and then connect it to electricity, it can reflect the photons along a certain angle and generate propulsion --- our anti-gravity
To put it bluntly, the device is just a photon reflector, and its efficiency is not very high."
"I don't understand." Palamedes looked at the small bag of light stones: "This thing is so rare, how did you find it in the wild?"
"Oh, it's very simple." Chanel explained disapprovingly: "Maybe your ears can't hear, but our dark elves' ears can hear the resonance of these pebbles. It's actually very easy to find."
"Very good." Palamedes nodded and took the bag of light stones in one hand: "Congratulations, Miss Chanel, you earned the ticket to board the ship. Come with us tomorrow."
Of course, we are only responsible for taking you to the destination of the first trial - Mount Gilimanjaro. We have no control over how you pass subsequent trials."
"Okay, very good. I wish us a happy cooperation." Chanel smiled.
She was still struggling before, unwilling to cause any more trouble for Bedivere and his group; now that she has paid enough for the "ship ticket" and knows that she has her own value of existence, she immediately walks with this group of strangers with peace of mind.
Bedivere watched all the changes and couldn't help but secretly admire the wit and tact of the Leopard Warriors. Moreover, they did get a lot of benefits from Chanel, and the werewolf could not continue to complain, so he could only nod in agreement.
At the same time, at night, in Great Britain, King Arthur's chamber.
After hearing the news that the two teenagers were in danger, the two mothers rushed over. After they saw that their children were safe and sound, they felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Hasky, you little naughty! I was almost scared to death by you!" Lianyin picked up her son and kept scolding: "Why can't you just stay in one place quietly and not run around and cause trouble to everyone?"
Trouble? I have never taught such a naughty son like you!"
"Mommy, I'm sorry..." The little canine boy looked guilty and disappointed.
King Arthur took the initiative to apologize and finished: "No, you can't blame him for this. There is such a dangerous passage in my palace. Even I didn't know about it. There was some negligence in the security facilities of the castle. At this time, my
Dereliction of duty, sorry."
Completely opposite to Lianyin's excitement, Vivian said nothing, caressing Little Hal's forehead in front of the hospital bed, and listened quietly to Arthur explaining the ins and outs of the incident.
She knew very well that the matter was not simple--at least not as simple as [two children lost their way in King Arthur's palace and ran into another castle through a portal and were in danger].
How easy is it to arrange a teleportation door that can appear at any time in the heavily guarded king's palace and hide it from all security checks? Moreover, why is the entrance to the unknown castle only a small vent, with only
Can children pass?
------If we just want to attack King Arthur, wouldn't it be much easier to use a larger entrance so that an entire army can pass through smoothly?
Some kind of intuition told Vivian that the hidden portal was not designed to attack King Arthur.
Its target is likely to be one of the two children. Either Hal or Husky.
But if you think this way, all clues will lead to greater [irrationality].
Because it was just a coincidence that these two orc boys came to King Arthur's palace;
They would wander around the castle and discover the hidden portal, which was a coincidence among coincidences;
They would play a treasure hunt game on a whim, crawling along the ventilation pipe into the unknown castle, which was an even bigger coincidence.
Are all these coincidences really possible, possible to control, or premeditated?
Impossible. I can't figure it out no matter how hard I think about it. Everything is too random, too random and unreasonable.
------Unless Husky or Hal were originally in some kind of hypnotic state and were summoned by some kind of power.
------Or maybe they were just pawns being controlled in a huge plan!
Seeing Vivian, who was frowning and thinking deeply about the problem, King Arthur thought that his sister was still worried about Little Hal, so he quickly advised: "Don't worry, Greenville has already checked Little Hal."
My physical condition is quite stable. Go back and have a good sleep tonight and you will recover tomorrow."
"I hope so." Vivian had no choice but to put away her frown. There were too few clues at present, and it was impossible to solve the mystery no matter how hard she tried, so she stopped thinking about it for the time being.
"Then it's time for us to leave." Lianyin hugged her exhausted son tightly and planned to leave.
"Yes, go back and wash up and sleep." King Arthur said: "But before doing that, I want to introduce someone to you."
The King of Knights clapped his hands and summoned a knight from outside the palace.
