"This is today's share. Eat it sparingly and don't waste any more."
Time turned back to the early morning not long ago. A young swordsman who had just climbed out of the silence of the temporary camp heard the deep voice belonging to Gedman. He did not know when he came here and just put the package in his hand. He handed it into the swordsman's hands and turned around to leave. His tired-sounding tone was so low that the player shuddered: "Ah! I, I understand!"
"What are you doing?" A tribal soldier lying next to him was awakened by the young swordsman's startle and said, "Sleep, don't make such a loud noise."
"Hug, hug, sorry! Ah, I mean -" The voice that was subconsciously amplified suddenly dropped with the warning gaze of the other party. The young swordsman hurriedly buried his head like a younger brother who had done something wrong: " Me, I have been a little over-stressed in the past two days, and now I still feel like my nerves have been stretched like a bowstring..."
"What else can make you so nervous?" He glanced at the young swordsman with squinted eyes. The tribal warrior, who looked extremely tired, lay back down again as if he had given up: "Good men on the grassland don't even care about life or death. I will take it to heart.”
"That's nothing about you."
The silence like a frightened bird once again returned to the corner of this temporary camp. The young swordsman sitting there holding the package did not make his voice again for a long time, until the sunlight slanting from the east gradually occupied the ridge. When he spread the radiant vitality to this area, he regained consciousness for the second time and refocused his attention on his eyes by slapping his cheeks: "No, don't think about it, Xiao Mingjie! The situation now has changed It’s critical enough. If you can’t do this little thing well——”
Constantly cheering himself up with repeated words to himself, the young swordsman slowly stood up holding his weapon with difficulty. The biting wind and cold air that traveled across the mountain top did not stop his progress. The stumbling steps became more and more energetic as the will became clearer: "——Okay."
After climbing over several ridges filled with all kinds of metal waste, the young swordsman stopped in front of a magical device that looked strange in shape and emitted a dark radiant outline. It was obviously recently placed here. There is another player sitting on top of this magic device, looking like he has been waiting for the arrival of the young swordsman: "...You are ten minutes late."
"It was Boss Gedman who woke me up when he came to deliver food to me, hahahaha." The young swordsman obviously relaxed a lot in front of this player, scratching the back of his head and raising the package in front of him. He gestured: "Maybe I was too excited when I was here last night, so I didn't rest."
"Fortunately, I still remember you, you unreliable guy, and ran over to take over your shift, otherwise I wouldn't have seen you today." He opened his eyes with his arms folded, and patted the rugged surface of the magic device. Baibu Wushuang smiled and said, "You are really the darling of our team."
"No, no, no, don't say that." The young swordsman hurriedly raised his hands in fear: "I Xiao... Baozi, who is so virtuous and capable, is always taken care of by you big guys and is stationed here. Guarding is originally a very easy task, there is no difficulty at all——"
"You're wrong, this is the most important thing for us right now."
Interrupting the other party's words with a low voice, Baibu Wushuang pointed at the mysterious and complicated magic lines spread all over the surface of the metal shell: "This thing doesn't seem to be of any use, but now almost all of us are counting on it. It, the reason why our divine messenger Nasia can leave with peace of mind is because we made a promise to her."
"Promise to hold on to it until it has an effect."
The eyes that were staring at each other appeared in the air after these words fell, and the young swordsman's originally relaxed spirit became tense again: "Is this so important? Then why did you send me -"
"Because you were the most suitable candidate yesterday." Baibu Wushuang tugged at the corner of his bitter mouth: "I am still carrying the negative effects of a serious injury. Others also have their own tasks. Only you who are healthy can still be considered a human being. Hands, you can devote all your energy to guarding... don't worry."
"Based on the judgments of Xueling Huanbing and Linyuan Duanshui, the other party will not send people to attack again at this time." The archer's face flashed with the same paleness as the young swordsman, and then his movements were unnatural He covered his flank and said, "You can rest assured about safety. All that's left is to keep an eye on the reaction of this device."
"By the way, what is this device used for?" The young swordsman asked this natural question: "It is said to report in time when there is a reaction, but what exactly does its reaction look like?"
"……I don't know either."
Concealing the unnaturalness of his body, Baibu Wushuang jumped down from the round box-shaped device with an indifferent expression: "When those two guys threw the mission out, they didn't give too much explanation... That's not true. Should it be an internal matter within your Qingling Adventure Group? You should know."
"I, I'm not a member of that adventure group, but Jian Bei Dong Fei had to take me all the way, so I followed him here." He waved his hand again to clarify, and the young swordsman's expression became a little lonely. : "When I was trapped in a different space, I thought this journey was over. I didn't expect that Violet would be the one to save me in the end... ah no, it was the two divine messengers Nasia and Jian Beidong who saved me. He gave me so many opportunities to survive here."
"I will definitely repay this kindness!" After saying this, he patted his chest vigorously: "As long as I can hold on to this camp and make due contributions to our sacred mountain power, even if I go through fire and water——"
"Stop, I don't want to hear these useless nonsense from you." He raised his hand to stop the other party's upcoming series of statements, and Baibu Wushuangfu pressed his forehead helplessly: "Anyway, you know this person behind me As long as the device is a very important thing to us now, since you are so caring, I will leave the rest of the work to you, and I will go back first... eh?"
The steps he had just taken were stopped because of some strange movement. The archer's gaze suddenly crossed the young swordsman's body and landed on the location of the magic device: "Did you hear that?" ?”
Various magic fluctuations became more and more obvious in the surrounding air as the two people held their breath and fell silent, and finally transformed into a continuous sound of electric current, covering the surface of the dark cylindrical iron block. The brilliance gradually rose and transformed with the appearance of these electronic sounds, and finally turned into a very familiar system prompt in the two people's impressions: "Feedback signal found, coordinate record: XXX, XXX..."
"What's wrong? What's wrong? What happened? What should we do?"
"...This should be the so-called 'reaction'. Quick, take the situation back."
"Take, take back? What to take back?"
"Don't make any noise."
Still maintaining a calm look in his eyes, Bai Bu Wushuang walked back to the front of the dark magic device and pressed his hand on the surface of the sound source: "——The information here is repeated, it should be a carousel, the key information is only I copied these few sentences."
"Why do these coordinates... look so familiar?" The young swordsman stretched his head towards him and then stared at the other party's adventurer's manual and said: "This, this seems to be the sacred mountain shown on our big map. Location! This so-called feedback coordinate is right here with us?"
"And it's close to our temporary camp." His brows tightened, and Baibu Wushuang replied with a gloomy face: "Go back quickly and report the situation. If you can't find the divine envoy, go to Linyuan Duanshui. If possible, , it’s best to go to the location shown by this coordinate to investigate.”
"I will continue to stay here to monitor this device - it should be the transceiver, right? There can't be no one here now."
With a trace of nervousness and uncertainty still on his face, the young swordsman finally nodded and agreed to Baibu Wushuang's arrangement. With an anxious expression and posture, he kept checking the adventurer's map in his hand. The footsteps also subconsciously moved closer to the position provided by the coordinates. The camp, which had entered the morning, also came back to life with the awakening of various groups of people, spreading their respective noisy atmosphere to every corner of the place. The young swordsman who passed through this group of people then Ignoring the noise and the few strange glances that occasionally fell on me, I looked around every corner of the camp and finally suddenly lifted up to the ridge above with a sudden epiphany: "Ah!
"It turns out it's up there!"
Looking at the two figures who vaguely appeared there, the young swordsman shouted in surprise as if he had discovered a new world. Duan Qing, who looked at this scene, then pressed his forehead helplessly. His eyes turned to the side where Jian Beidong was: "This little brother of yours seems to have some problems with his IQ?"
"He has always looked like this, a little silly, but also a little cute." So Jian Beidong also patted the side of his face helplessly: "But at least his mood is kind enough, and his willpower is strong enough at critical moments. , this is enough."
"The review is good." Watching the young swordsman start running towards the direction of the two people, Duan Qing nodded with surprise: "Isn't he your friend? I thought he was your relative."
"Those relatives in our family don't have such ability." Jian Beidong waved his hand with disdain: "Besides, this guy has been playing with me since he was a child. He grew up wearing a pair of pants. If I don’t take care of such a person, who will?”
"clear."
Making a gesture towards the opponent, Duan Qing turned his gaze to the direction in which the young swordsman came up. As he climbed up the ridge with his hands and feet, his breathing became more obvious, and even his words changed. He started talking intermittently: "Ha, ha...I, I'm here...to report, and...eh? You, why are you...also here..."
"Speak quickly if you have anything to say, and fart if you have any." Jian Beidong, who raised his eyebrows, pushed back the young swordsman's gesture of saying hello: "Seeing how anxious you are, it should be the device you are responsible for that has reacted. Alright?"
"Yes, yes!" The young swordsman nodded with unprecedented intensity, and replied overjoyed: "As expected of good brothers, the tacit understanding between us is not needed at all... Oops!"
"Who is a good brother with you? I don't know such a reckless brother." He used a knife to hit back the other person's voice that seemed to be stumbling due to excitement. Jian Beidong's eyes also turned to where Duan Qing was. Direction: "So what is the device you sent someone to install for?"
"That's a terminal, the one Violet left here beforehand."
Duan Qing also opened his adventurer map and replied in a slow voice: "According to the design of the long-distance teleportation array, the first thing we need to bypass is the shackles of spatial distance and the influence of the elemental isolation array. Borrowed Teleportation through earth veins is naturally one of the ways, but considering that the Avengers currently control the factors of those earth veins, the safety and stability of this option cannot be guaranteed... Why are you looking at me with that look?"
"speak English."
"So I told you to study the 'knowledge' well."
Duan Qing waved his hand helplessly. Duan Qing, who was too lazy to continue explaining, then printed the calibrated map coordinates with the magic circle under his hand: "Okay, tell me what the coordinates reported from the other side are."
"That's right, right here." After comparing the position he was standing with the information fragment in his hand, the young swordsman hesitated for a while before he said the answer: "The feedback coordinates reported by that device are where we are. .”
Following the opponent's fingers and looking at his feet, Duan Qing's continuous spell-casting movements suddenly stopped: "Is this right here?"
"Yes, yes... uh, is there any problem? I, I promise I didn't copy it wrong! I, I -"
"You're so excited."
Another sword hit the dancing young swordsman back, and Jian Beidong returned his gaze to Duan Qing: "What's wrong with the coordinates being here? Don't tell me that you've been busy for a long time. In the end, all the previous efforts will be wasted.”
"That's not true." The look of lowered eyebrows and contemplation flashed across his calm face, and Duan Qing turned to let out a few wry smiles: "But -"
"It seems that my lovely mentor is still sparing no effort to monitor my existence during this period."
Using his fingers to control the flow of magic, the gray-robed magician changed a few insignificant lines in the magic circle in front of him. The large magic circuits extending in all directions of the ridge were also connected through these slight changes. There were heart-stopping ripples, and finally the huge energy impact tearing through the space was guided to the center of the magic circle in front of Duan Qing.
