The rays of the rising sun brushed through the new buds, and the horizon in the distance was already a fiery red.
Valentin rubbed his eyes, squeezing away the last trace of tiredness, stood up and stretched his arms, enjoying the cool morning breeze.
On the 32nd hour after Dr. Noah disappeared, the last team "Whale" also embarked on the road of search and rescue. But unlike other teams, the "Whales" have a very clear direction:
Head south to Iberia, conduct secondary preparations at the Iberia branch of Rhodes Island, and then go to Agor via the coastal city of Portimon to look for the abducted Dr. Noah and the Ghost Shark.
The mission of the other teams was basically to search along the road, but they were looking for someone in a certain exact place, and this order was given directly by Kelsey, bypassing the operations department, which is really intriguing.
Valentin happened to have a reason to go to Agor, so Kelsey gave him this order as if he knew what he was thinking, and assigned him a local tour guide in Agor, who was "intimate" It's a bit much.
It was hard not to think too much about Valentine.
However, he thought about it all night and didn't know the real reason why Kelsi did this. In the end, he simply didn't think about it and just regarded it as a public trip.
It's just that this vehicle is a bit unsatisfactory...
Bang!
"I go!"
It must have hit a stone, and the car suddenly shook. Valentine lost his balance and almost fell into Raphael's arms.
Sister Angel was so frightened that her halo flashed twice.
"Sit tight."
Raphael frowned slightly, grabbed Valentin's arm and pulled him back to his seat.
The dragon man's horns are very hard. If he had really fallen just now, Sister Angel's thigh might have been in pain for a while.
This is also the reason why she rarely gives this guy a knee pillow.
"The chassis of this car is too hard..."
Valentin touched his butt and leaned towards Raphael.
Hearing this, Xing Yihuang glanced at the rearview mirror, but his foot on the accelerator did not release any force.
Although she is now a guard operator, her training is the standard for a vanguard operator, and driving skills are a very important one.
Valentine is right, the chassis of this car is indeed very stiff. But it is an off-road vehicle after all, so comfort is not a consideration at all, as long as it has strong passability and is resistant to damage.
What's more, this car has been modified by the Ministry of Industry, with further enhanced functionality and more rugged styling.
If it weren't for the fact that it's still a car and needs to consider the feelings of its occupants, those lunatics would even want to remove the seats and replace them with storage devices...
Or backup hidden energy or something like that.
But Xing Yihuang likes this car very much, it gives her the joy of driving a manic beast.
"Yesterday we agreed to take a ride from the logistics department to deliver the goods, but this morning I had to drive myself."
Valentine began to mutter.
"I was thinking I could catch up on some sleep in the car."
Rhode Island has branches all over Terra, but only the headquarters can manufacture ore disease inhibitors, so Rhode Island has established its own internal logistics network, with the Operations Department and Logistics Department responsible for transporting inhibitors and inhibitors to each branch. other products.
The vehicle responsible for transportation is not so much a car as it is called Mobile City Super Mini, which is just a house with caterpillar tracks.
It can not only meet the basic living needs of the escorts, but also has entertainment facilities such as table tennis to help them pass the time during the boring transportation process.
It just so happened that the Rhodes Island headquarters was close to Iberia, so the Logistics Department was thinking of replenishing some mineral disease inhibitors for the southern branch and bringing the "Whale" team there.
As a result, the application for supplementary inhibitors was approved, but the suggestion of letting Valentine and others take a ride was rejected by Kelsey.
The reason is simple.
"waste time."
Valentin could imagine how cold Kelsey's expression looked when she said these four words.
"You can sleep now too."
Raphael did not push away the little dragon man who was approaching. He just glanced at him and then turned to look at the wilderness outside.
"I'm so upset that I can't sleep."
Closing the skylight, Valentin rubbed Raphael's shoulder and showed a satisfied smile.
Sister Angel smells so good.
"Yihuang, can you drive slower?"
Valentine twisted his neck and gently stepped on the backrest of the driver's seat with his foot.
"Same goes for slower."
Her voice was still so cold, but it sounded much better than Kelsey's.
There are no roads in the wilderness, but as the mobile city travels more, there are roads.
When such a large steel behemoth rolls over, the ground will definitely be extremely flat, but this is only from a macro perspective.
After all, the gap between the tracks and wheels of that thing is big enough to fit a house in, and it's not easy to miss a stone.
At least it looks flat. If the weather is good, you can even see a straight line with no ups and downs in the distance. They can walk to their destination in the shortest straight line between two points, eliminating the trouble of detours.
"I don't know when it will arrive."
After Valentine said this, the car fell into silence again, and everyone could hear only the tire noise and the whistling wind outside the window.
Skadi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, had not spoken since he got in the car. He did not participate in the interaction of the other three people throughout the whole process. He just closed his eyes to rest and occasionally turned his head to look at the scenery outside the window.
It was as if she was the only one in the whole world.
Valentin stared at Skadi's side face from behind and had no intention of talking to her.
Because before setting off, he tried to have a friendly exchange with the deep-sea hunter, but the other party only nodded and said yes, which was so perfunctory.
But Valentin could also see that she was not being perfunctory, it was just her personality.
Skadi in real life is dressed exactly the same as she is in the game, except that when she is sitting in the car, she puts the hat on her lap and the big sword in the trunk.
She was also dressed in the same outfit when they met in the morning, which was in stark contrast to the three Valentines who were wearing Rhode Island uniforms.
I don’t know if Kelsey didn’t give her a uniform or if she didn’t want to wear it at all.
When Agol arrives, will this taciturn captain change?
After all, that is her hometown...
Valentine's thoughts slowly dispersed, turned into sleepiness, and returned to his mind. During the bumps of the off-road vehicle, he gradually closed his eyes, listened to the whistling wind in his ears, rested his head on the angel's shoulder, and fell asleep.
Maybe it was because they got up early and everyone was not very energetic. After Valentine fell asleep, there was no more talking in the car.
Raphael held the dragon man's right hand and gently rubbed the back of his hand with his thumb. The distant trees in his field of vision retreated like flying.
Iberia has the Faith of Lateran, and her identity cannot be hidden there, so I don’t know what impact it will have.
Rutland had been paying attention to her, and Raphael knew about it. This time their saint is going to the most mysterious place on the entire continent. What will the church do?
Raphael always felt that this journey would not be peaceful.
Everything about Agor seems unsettling.
Shortly after the "Whale" team set off, another off-road vehicle left the Rhode Island headquarters.
They were traveling in the opposite direction to Valentine and the others, and there was only one person in the car.
Kelsey.
