Chapter 72 Passive
The question now is why Lanaya's flying blade appeared in Kuanglan City.
Going back to when she first came to the supernatural world, she didn't know the attack methods of the supernatural world, and she still had a certain number of flying blades that she hadn't used up. On the day she and Grint went on their first mission, they were attacked. It seemed that
It was at that time that I used the flying blade, but I never used it again. The night I went to the Crystal Cave and encountered the Voodoo Scorpion, I just wanted to use the weapon to scare him.
Since her flying blade will appear in Kuanglan City, someone must have brought her flying blade here. The person who may have brought her flying blade here is...
But haven’t all the ultimate missions been destroyed?
Aren’t the deadly night shadow forces gone long ago?
Could it be that... the Hidden Temple made a mistake? That camp in the sacred forest was just one of their strongholds?
If this is really the case, who knows how many strongholds they still have? It is impossible to find out the details of the deadly night shadow force in a short time anyway, and its existence will definitely pose a huge threat to the Hidden Temple.
!
What is certain now is: there must be someone with Deadly Night Shadow in this city!
Ranaya found the fortune teller again.
"Huh? You look familiar, girl. Sit down."
Lanaya said seriously: "I want to ask you, do you know about the deadly night shadow?"
"Deadly Night Shadows...they are this city's nightmare!"
When Ranaya heard what the fortune teller said, she confirmed her suspicion. The people behind her all showed horrified expressions when they heard the conversation between Ranaya and the fortune teller. It seemed that they were more or less concerned about this.
Nightmarish forces have been heard.
I heard from the fortune teller that the targets killed by that group of people are not fixed, and their purposes are diverse. They are not originally called Deadly Night Shadows, but because they mostly move at night, the city of Kuanglan is often shrouded in midnight.
The screams made others clench their hearts. After a while, people called them Deadly Night Shadows, and they seemed to just scream like that.
Kuanglan City has been shrouded in nightmares for many years. There used to be a mission to get rid of them at the mission release office in the city, but on the night when this mission was put up, something happened to the people there. Later, there was no mission release office anymore.
This mission appeared, but they seemed to have given a hidden rule behind their backs. If anyone gets rid of them, they can get a generous reward. "One day I went to the mission release office and accidentally heard someone sitting there drinking.
The tea man said it," said the fortune teller.
"You can predict the future, but can you calculate the day I will die?" Ranaya said.
The fortune teller shook his head and smiled meaningfully, "The fate is in your own hands."
Lanaya smiled, in her own hands? If it were in her own hands, would she still have to follow the orders of the Eye of the Temple to retrieve the remaining pages of the notebook?
"You are so good at divination and your magic must be very powerful. Why don't you take action to get rid of them?"
The diviner said: "Hey, divination is divination. I am an old person. Although my psychic abilities have reached the fourth level, I have never had any knowledge about punishment or sacred magic."
"Thank you for the information, I'll take my leave first." After saying that, Ranaya stood up and left.
"Okay." As soon as the fortune teller finished speaking, he felt something was wrong, "Wait a minute, girl, why are you asking me for this? Is it possible..."
How could Lanaya have the time to stay here to explain to her? Maybe there was such a deadly night shadow among the crowd, and he knocked her down when she wasn't paying attention.
Even in autumn, Kulan City, which is located near the desert, is still a bit hot. Lanaya noticed something moving in the hollow of her arm. She saw that it was Grint who had pulled out his hand and rolled up his sleeves, revealing his white forearms.
.
"It's so hot, I want a cold drink!" Grint shouted.
Lanaya has a black line, but you are the one who has the most trouble!
Since he didn't dare to act alone, he could only follow Grint.
The distribution of cold drink shops in Kuanglan City was pitifully sparse, probably due to the scarcity of water resources and the inability to do so many... This made them walk for an hour before they found one. There were quite a few people visiting this cold drink shop, at least only
You can't see what the boss looks like from outside.
After squeezing into the crowd, Grint was pulled close to him by Lanaya before he could see the true appearance of the soda fountain. Lanaya formed her hands into a bowl shape, leaned into Grint's ear and whispered: "There was someone just now.
Always following us."
Grint's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide, "How do you know?"
"Don't worry about how I know..." Halfway through, he was suddenly squeezed by someone. He thought it was not convenient to talk here, so he simply pulled Green out, stood in the innermost corner of the room, and looked out the door warily.
After taking a look, he said, "It's true. He has been following us. Although I can't see what he looks like, I am sure that there is only one person."
"Then what should we do now?"
"I'm afraid the only people who would follow us in a place like this are people from Deadly Night Shadow. Although there is only one person... don't look at just one person. If we act rashly, we don't know how many people are behind him." Lanaya said.
: "But if we just let him follow us, he will soon know where we live and our usual route."
"Yeah, it would be nice if I could get him to follow me."
"That's true, but it's hard to get rid of him. I have a flash dagger, but what should you do? If he can't find me, he will capture you and force me to rescue you?"
Grint looked anxious. Lanaya frowned and was silent for a moment, then continued: "Forget it, we can only take one step at a time. Since he is a member of Deadly Night Shadow, he should know the person who destroyed their sacred forest stronghold.
How powerful. As long as we don't appear alone in his field of vision, he shouldn't dare to have any thoughts about us."
"Hey, you seem to have praised yourself."
"...I'll buy you a cold drink."
That night, Lanaya reported what happened today to Blaze. Lanaya, who hadn't met them for three days, never expected to step into a trap on the fourth day. There must be someone on Deadly Night Shadow's side.
Action was taken. Everyone stopped going out after coming back at night, and kept the lights on when sleeping to prepare for emergencies.
Lanaya was lying on the bed, not sleepy, staring at the ceiling in a daze. Xiaozi slept on the window sill, so that if there was any movement on the window, it would be the first to take action.
It was late at night and the sky was deep and pitch black. Apart from the whistling wind outside the window, nothing could be heard.
The wind in Kuanglan City was so strong that the tree trunks as thick as a bowl were bent at incredible angles, and the leaves were stirring crazily on the branches.
After an unknown amount of time, the sky gradually turned white. Ranaya was nervous all night, but nothing happened.
As soon as she jumped out of bed, Lanaya thought something was wrong. She had wiped out all the enemies in the sacred forest. How did the people in Deadly Night Shadow here know what she looked like?
Reaching out to open the window, Lanaya's eyes stayed on her hand for a second, and the action of opening the window also stopped for a minute.
The amethyst ring is bathed in the new sunshine outside the window, and the mirror reflects the whole world.
Could it be that……?
"Everyone, stop wearing amethyst rings, someone is already targeting us!" Lanaya summoned all members and two mission instructors and said.
"Enemy? When did it happen? Do you have any information?" One of Zhuo Weini's team members reacted very quickly and looked directly at him.
"It's Deadly Night Shadow..." Grint blurted out. Lanaya quickly covered her mouth when she heard it, but it was already too late.
"What? Deadly Night Shadow? Hasn't Deadly Night Shadow been wiped out by our people long ago?"
Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Lanaya could no longer hide it, "It was just a small stronghold of theirs. They wanted to kill me, but now they know my whereabouts."
"Why do I want to kill you? Are you..."
Lanaya took the opportunity to interrupt him, "So you all hide your features, and it's best not to show them! In this way, they will only find me, and you will be fine!"
Blaze removed his calm expression, and for the first time looked angry, and said sternly: "Lanaya! Why do you mean they will only find you? What are you thinking? No matter what you have done before, it is your business
, it’s the whole Hidden Temple thing!” I’m very puzzled, why at such a critical moment, Lanaya doesn’t even have a sense of teamwork? I don’t know how many people in the upper levels of the Hidden Temple have begun to pay attention to Lanaya
, can he just let it go?
"I didn't say I don't need your help! I just don't want to drag you down by provoking them, that's all!"
A team member said: "In that case, wouldn't it be great if we returned now?"
"No..." Lanaya recalled what the mission receptionist told her about what Deadly Night Shadow and his gang had done to the low-ranking and even non-ranking compatriots in the Hidden Temple. She raised her head and said seriously
Looking at everyone, "Now that they are here, don't let them go."
"I think so too! Lanaya, I will always stand behind you and support you!" Grint said.
"Do you have anything to start with now?" Niya asked. Even though Ranaya was not a student under her control, she still couldn't help but want to test it. I heard that Ranaya's first choice was a knight.
The Warrior branch she belongs to has many similarities. She can record Lanaya's performance and report it to the department headquarters, giving the people there a certain basis for reference.
"I don't know their details at all. I don't even know their strength, how many people there are, or the location of their stronghold. Although there was only one person following me and Grint yesterday, I don't know all of the above. If I try to counter-track them, it may be self-defeating.
Maybe there will be two or three people following me today, or even more. So the anti-tracking plan is unwise."
"Are you just going to let them follow you?"
