"This is our route." Raymond drew a finger on the map. Zheng Yichen looked at the route that Raymond pointed out. The route was through mountains, forests and rivers.
It's not a straight line, but it's almost a straight line. It's not like a normal road. If you want to reach the Dusk Church, you need to take a lot of detours. If you don't take detours, it's not the way for normal people to walk.
"...It's very difficult, but it's still acceptable." John looked at the route pointed out by Raymond and said, "Isn't this the route required by the employer?"
"Of course not." Raymond shook his head. John was less vigilant. This was the route required by his employer, so he had to consider some additional risks.
The escort commission they accepted only required that things be delivered within the agreed time, but if they had to follow the employer's route... who could guarantee that the employer had no other intentions?
Since the employer did not have such a requirement, John continued: "In this way we can continue to adjust the route."
Walking in a straight line is not necessarily fast, nor is it a plain.
If you want to reach your destination in a straight line, you must be able to fly, and there are no means of transportation like airplanes in this world. To walk in a straight line sometimes you will inevitably have to climb over mountains and cross rapids.
If you want to be efficient, you can only find places on the map that can be passed quickly. Even if some of those places are more dangerous, they are very skilled and can accept any danger.
"How big is the 'suppression' we are sending?" asked another demon hunter. If the suppression is too big, their route adjustments will become even more limited.
"It's not big, just a box." Raymond gestured at the size of the box. What Zheng Yichen wanted to complain about was that the box should be big enough to fit a human head.
"That's no problem. Leave the route planning to me." John said confidently. A box that can just fit a human head is not a burden at all. As for planning the route, he is not just a job.
When he was young, he traveled extensively, and his ability to use many weapons was accumulated during those years. The more places he traveled and the more people he met, the more he learned.
"What exactly is that suppressant?"
Zheng Yichen was also very curious about that thing. There were things with special power in this world, and the Hell Sword in his hand was one of them.
Raymond smiled and shook his head: "Don't be too curious about this. I've seen that box... It doesn't feel like a good thing. There are many locked chains on the box. We only need this kind of thing. Just send it to the place, too much curiosity can easily cause trouble."
John stared at the map and then said: "Yes, it will be dangerous if there is any ancient curse inside. In the future, if you find any abnormal containers outside, be sure not to open them easily."
"I've learned a lesson." Zheng Yichen nodded, put away his curiosity, and then said half-jokingly: "Uncle John, when you retire, you can write a biography or two about yourself if you have nothing to do. Maybe it will become a hit."
"Biography? Who would read that kind of thing?" John shook his head. Zheng Yichen's proposal was exciting, but he didn't know his own culture yet. That stuff couldn't be written by a rough guy like them. Otherwise, he would find it. Bard try?
"Two days of preparation time, then everyone will gather here." Raymond said.
"I will plan the route in these two days." John said seriously.
"I have to go back to arrange some things." Zheng Yichen did not stay with Raymond for long. He returned to his residence and said to Katrina: "Let's find a suitable buyer recently. Don't be too anxious. We will find the right one within a month." That’s it.”
Zheng Yichen found the map at home and spread it out directly. Zheng Yichen had written down a lot of details on the map that Raymond had taken out before. The main places could be marked. He had no intention of stopping by nearby cities, mainly because the road was far away. He couldn't take Katrina and the others with him on the escort mission.
Let them go to a city very close to the Dusk Church? This is such a wise idea. There are no airplanes or high-speed trains. But let it go. If something happens on the way, I probably won’t be able to find them in the future. They are witches, but they are the kind of people who can’t even see a wolf. You have to be a soft girl who can beat me...
This witch's fighting power is a bit weak, even Elena, who has necromancy. She can use necromancy to summon powerful undead to possess her, but the summoned undead will make her enter a semi-crazy state. state, she was very powerful in that state.
It's as if the muscle restrictions are lifted and she becomes berserk. However, that is linked to the basic attributes. Her strength is not strong. If she becomes berserk, her strength will be increased by XX%. How much can it increase?
It's better to stay in the city and wait for him to come back. Then we can act together. We have been stuck in this world for several months, and we don't care about wasting an extra month or two.
"Okay, that's it. I'll try to come back within a month, and I'll keep the gun." Zheng Yichen made the arrangements for the future. He kept the shotgun and pistol, and took away the hand cannon.
This is also the longest commission that Zheng Yichen has been out for. Before, it was only a week at most.
"It's getting late, let's take a rest." Katrina said softly.
Elena in the living room looked at Zheng Yichen and Katrina with a smile, then returned to her room with Zheng Yichen's laptop in her arms. She would sort out all the knowledge she had and record it into the computer. Things are more convenient than books, but they require electricity and break easily.
But the good thing is that others don't know how to use this thing. Even if someone from the church comes here, they can't find any knowledge related to magic from her, unless they can use computers and crack passwords.
"You must come back safely." In the middle of the night, the girl hugged Zheng Yichen tightly and said reluctantly.
"...I won't leave in two days." Zheng Yichen gently patted the girl's shoulder. He always felt that it was very unlucky and dangerous to talk about this kind of topic at this time.
"I know, you need to have a good rest before you leave."
Have a good rest tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. That means you don’t have to rest today and tomorrow. So why don’t you sleep tonight?
The next day, Zheng Yichen did not go to Raymond's home to exercise. It was time to set off the day after tomorrow. Zheng Yichen checked his things one last time: "Just use birdshot and deer bullets for weapons. You have also practiced guns before. As for the other... …wait me back."
At the meeting point, John and others were ready. Their equipment was considered luxurious among demon hunters, including new wallets, newly maintained weapons, etc.
"Hahahaha, this is the last commission, so it needs to be a bit ceremonial." John patted the brand new leather armor on his body and said with a smile: "In the future, this equipment will be proof of storytelling."
