Chapter 457
In the canon of the Righteous Sect, the 13th of each month is the day of the handicap, when the faithful gather to sing a loud and low battle song.
Today is March 13th.
Donald entire group came out of the inn at the foot of Lapagad Mountain, and many believers nearby were going up the mountain.
There seemed to be some faint sounds of prayers being heard in the distance.
According to the agreement when they left Demingham, they or Horn Shelley’s team, whoever arrived first in Lapagad, had to leave a letter at the inn in the city, writing Know your current position to ensure that the other team can meet immediately upon arrival at the destination.
They had deposited the carriage here when they came, and had already asked if there were any letters to be deposited, but the answer was no, so it could be inferred that Horn Shelley had not arrived.
“From now on, you have to come and ask once every morning, because they made a mistake and lost our letter, so the two sides couldn’t get in touch.”
In the vicinity, I found a cafe , Donald asked Stephanie before he sat down.
“Okay…Are we coming too early? After all, Demingham gave us a one-year mission, and we have only spent less than half a year now. .”
Stephanie is a little concerned about this issue, although Lapagad’s environment is very good, but after the novelty wears off, she has some anxiety.
Part of it was because she always felt uneasy about the delay in completing the task. .
The main reason is that she is a little uncomfortable with the way of life here or the atmosphere here.
Perhaps because of the fact that Lapagade is the core missionary city of the justice sect, there is a very strong religious atmosphere here.
For a person who has no faith or that the object of his belief is not a righteous God, it is inevitable that life here will be a bit constrained.
Of course, I didn’t feel that way when I first came here, but the thought of possibly staying here for a long period of time didn’t just happen to Stephanie alone. body.
“I don’t know, after all, there is no channel for information exchange between us and Horn’s team, and their route seems to be somewhat different from ours. We are going south of Ryan Empire, and they are going It’s the north, I hope they can arrive as soon as possible… In fact, I also want to finish the task as soon as possible and leave here, there are still many things waiting for us to do, wasting time here is not what I want. .”
Donald leaned back on the sofa, they were able to arrive in less than half a year, in fact, it was because he deliberately speeded up.
The sense of urgency in his heart urged him to speed up the task.
But it was only now that he realized whether the progress of the task could be accelerated, and he could not rely on him alone.
“Donald, are we going to stay in Lapagad for a while, don’t forget, we are all…special people, staying here for a day or two No problem, you can pretend to be tourists, but if the other team is late, we are staying here as outsiders for more than half a month, and it is easy to attract attention.”
Anthony’s worries are obviously more practical. There are a lot of tourists on Lapagad, and Lapagad never refuses the entry of outsiders, but this does not mean that everyone can stay here for a long time. , after all, they are not residents here.
even more how they themselves are a group of heretics. If they are discovered by the justice sect, they must be paid attention to.
“This is indeed a problem…”
Donald was thinking about this, when a loud hoof noise from the street outside interrupted him. his thinking.
Looking up, the first thing I saw was a team of Knights. Judging from the armor they wore and the flag held by one of them, they should all be believers of the righteous sect.
Looking back further, Donald was stunned for a moment, and then a strange smile appeared on his face.
“It seems that we don’t have to think about this issue anymore, you see, the other half of our mission completion conditions is here!”
In the back of this Knight team, actually Following Horn Shelley, Burns, Boglo, Susannah, and the Garcia family’s Miss Semir, all of them appeared in front of them.
This is a state that Donald hadn’t thought of, and it seems that they are also newly arrived Lapagad.
“I’m going to call them?”
Stephanie couldn’t help but want to go out and call her when she saw her best friend Suzanne, but when she got up, she noticed that Donald was watching She pressed her hand down, then sat back again, looking back suspiciously.
“Don’t hurry, it’s rude to stop the justice sect team in the street, and they obviously have business affairs, and they may misunderstand our motives when the time comes. Explain to us that the situation is unclear now, and it is best not to cause trouble.”
The horses these people ride have a lot of sand spots on their calves, and they snort constantly while walking. It should be the performance of exhaustion, and these Knights look mighty and majestic at first glance, but if you look closely, you can find that some of them are a little loose, just trying not to make a fool of themselves in front of the believers.
The state of Horn’s entire group doesn’t look much different from them.
It seems that this team is obviously Lapagad who has just traveled a long way and should have had a lot of battles along the way.
Then Donald also saw two prison cars behind the team, a man and a woman were imprisoned in them. They didn’t know what their origins were, but they were each huddled in the corner of the two cages.
“Since they have arrived in Lapagad, they will naturally go to the inn to check the letters according to our previous agreement. We will just wait in the hotel afterwards. There is no need to fight for these minutes and seconds.”
After taking a sip of coffee, Donald neither fast nor slow said, people have already appeared in front of them, and they will never disappear suddenly.
After breakfast, the entire group went back to the hotel and waited for Horn and the others to arrive.
Of course, not sitting and waiting, but sitting around on the balcony of the hotel, basking in the sun, eating cakes, and discussing what to say and what not to say when we meet later.
After all, some things are very sensitive, so we still need to ventilate well in advance to save the embarrassment when the time comes.
“We are not going to return to Demingham, not only can we say this, but we must also take the initiative to say that after we complete our mission, the contract with the Demingham government is over, and where do we want to go? Just go wherever, so don’t worry about what Horn and the others will think.”
After this assignment, Donald is ready to make a cut with Demingham, which is not difficult, after all, strictly speaking their team Only Donald and Stephanie were related to the Demingham government agency, and both of them were only the lowest-level investigators, not important personnel of any government agency.
“Let’s not mention our affairs in Reinas and Howling Forest. The former is our foothold in the future. Except for the few of us, the more outsiders know the better, the latter. It is my biggest secret right now. I must not let others know how fast I am now. There is also the matter of Komul City. I can talk about it when I see the giant dragon, but don’t mention the next thing, especially between me and the giant dragon. This is our trump card. The deeper we hide, the better. As for the ruins of the epidemic, it doesn’t matter, but the recovery of Lilo’s strength can be hidden. We can talk more about the phenomena we saw in Corta and The vampire castle thing…”
Most of the time it’s Donald talking, Stefani and Julia remembering, and Anthony saying he’s not familiar with those people, when the time Comes can completely put on a cold look, and can easily avoid communicating with them.
In fact, it’s actually Stefani and Donald who really need to pay attention. Julia also took notes because she was nervous and worried that Semir Garcia would suddenly find her to chat, after all, the two of them I’ve been on the Oswi Sea for a while.
As a full member of Donald’s team, she naturally has to protect the interests of the team.
Wait until the negotiation is done properly, and after checking and filling the gaps, it is confirmed that there are no missing points, and several people begin to really enter the waiting state.
At noon, Stefani, who had been leaning against the balcony railing and looking at the street outside, straightened up and started waving his hands to the outside.
Unsurprisingly, the Horn entire group found them here.
The two teams finally met again after a few months.
