Roy's question made Sully hesitate.
He doesn't have much, but he definitely has a lot of self-knowledge.
In this extremely dangerous world, without the ability to protect himself with the elements, he is an easy target to be attacked whenever he is in danger.
But……
Sully still had to go, because when this idea came to his mind, he found that he no longer needed to find unfounded excuses for himself.
He has given other options.
Although this option is not clear at this time.
"It's better for people to live in a state of confusion. Being too clear-headed will make people suffer." Suli no longer thought about the realities that might endanger his life. He just said, "Even if I don't go, you will go too."
Suli began to count on his fingers: "Egg is already there. Although Euphia is the heir, as long as she has not actually inherited the position, she also needs merits to improve her reputation. The leader of the Lions Club has already reached an agreement with her. If she will definitely accept the war mission, she will definitely go on guard this time. As for you..."
Suli looked at Roy and asked, "Will you not go?"
The two-star mercenary burst into laughter. "Of course I will go. After all, my mission to hunt the eighth-level monster has not started yet. And Egbert is also there. I can't refuse this time."
"It's too dangerous." Cyril's ability to organize language did not allow him to give any excuses to reject Sully's decision. He could only frown weakly and say even weaker words.
"Cyril will go too." Sully looked at him. "Ziso Town was the hardest hit area. No matter how humble we lived there, Cyril would never abandon the place where we were born."
"Cyril wants to go, so why would she stop me?"
As for Mark, who was being overly gracious throughout the whole house...he had actually already packed his luggage while the others started talking.
At this time, Mark asked a few questions, asking if there was anything else they needed to bring besides the necessary clothes and toiletries. Everyone else's minds went blank for a moment.
Finally, it was Sully who reacted first. He coughed and said, "You've done a good job. These are exactly what we need to bring."
As for other things, such as bandaging supplies and medicines, the Mercenary Alliance is said to have a small space device specially developed using elemental power that can quickly transport most resources.
Suli no longer chose to be smart, and instead carried a box full of basic supplies for four people and headed directly to Jisou Town.
Unlike the time they came to Sadina from Ziso Town, this time they unexpectedly added some heavy things to their trip to Ziso Town.
Fortunately, no one was willing to discuss this news that would make people feel upset, so after arriving at the place, everyone tried their best to remain calm.
The town of Jisso, which was bustling when they left, turned into a dead silence. The only pedestrians seen on the street every ten minutes or so were mostly like walking corpses.
A large number of buildings were destroyed, and mutilated corpses lay in the corners, surrounded by flies due to improper handling.
Sully had never seen a corpse. In his 30 years of life, he had indeed attended many funerals, but as a non-relative, he had either seen the person already in the coffin or in the urn.
Forcing himself to ignore the instinctive fear that people have towards corpses, Suli managed to suppress the urge to hold onto a tree and vomit wildly.
He chose to close his eyes.
He then said something that sounded like nonsense: "Sure enough, no matter who you are, if you don't want to see something, you can just close your eyes and pretend not to see it."
Afterwards, Sully, who was destined to stay in this town for a while and not to become a burden, opened his eyes again.
Roy's originally slightly wrinkled brows were now even more wrinkled.
He was thinking about what Suli meant...
But in the end, I couldn't help but doubt myself.
Could it be that Sully already knows... who he is?
"Let's go find some people." Suli looked at the area ahead again. They didn't have time to help deal with the corpses, so they had to find the living people first.
The rescue operation for this town that is about to begin will definitely involve a great number of people from the Holy See of Light. This is a possibility that Sully thought of as he was rushing here in a carriage.
Since the source of everything is due to the initial calculation, those who do not want the calculation to be exposed will definitely want to bury everything.
Therefore, this time, the rescue of the Holy See of Light will not only not choose to dispatch only a few elementalists for healing, but will instead launch a large number of vanguards.
The only option would be to send out the Knights of Light as a military force.
If Egbert is still here, Euphia will definitely lend him a line of intelligence that can be used. Knowing that the people from the Holy See of Light will come in large numbers, Egbert, who is currently acting alone, will choose to hide to some extent, so Suli no longer has any expectations of seeing him in this rescue operation.
Sure enough, when Roy picked him up and threw him on his back, and they quickly rushed to the area where a lot of living people gathered, as soon as Sulip landed, he found that there was no one he knew in his sight.
Sully withdrew his gaze, and Roy reacted quickly and threw the person on his back again.
As someone who has the ability to be promoted to a three-star mercenary, as long as Roy wants, when he covers Sully with his elements, even if those elemental factors instinctively want to avoid it, under the coercion of their master, they can't help but simulate the illusion that he is also an elementalist beside Sully.
No one doubts whether the crude disguise is real.
Suli lay on Roy's back, watching him turn his head and glance at him, trying his best to figure out what his eyes meant...
In the end, I still didn't figure it out.
I could only respond with an even deeper look.
The king of kings will never admit defeat.
Roy was stunned for a moment after receiving that even deeper look.
In his opinion, his eyes indicated that the situation had changed more than they had imagined. The people from the Holy See of Light had already begun to control the town, and they might even be secretly eliminating people who knew some inside information... Otherwise, should they just leave?
The deep look in Suli's reply completely changed into, we originally appeared as disaster rescuers, when we found a new disaster happening before our eyes, how could we not lend a helping hand?
Roy admired Sully's courage and was genuinely concerned about his safety.
Suli was not sure what the bodyguard had in mind, but when he turned his attention to the crowd again, he found that the proportion of people in white robes had reached an astonishing half.
Even if the survivors in this area cannot be all the people in the town, this proportion is still surprising.
However, it can also prove the opposite: how powerful those who are afraid of the "truth about the betrayer" are.
When the two men looked at each other, Mark went to the person closest to him, who seemed a little irritable.
This man was not as numb as most of the others, but instead had a furious look on his face. When Mark asked, "What's the situation now?", he spilled all the news like pouring beans.
The death toll has not changed. The safety of the people of Jisuo Town is now in the hands of the Holy See of Light. As for whether the people in the Holy See are secretly dealing with those who know the inside information...
It is still unclear at this time. But Mark made one point clear after he walked back to the trio.
"The people in the Church are planning to organize all the mercenaries currently in this town, and go hunting for the Crystal Pterosaur together with the people they brought with them."
Mark sensed what the irritable man was angry about, and explained it honestly: "Although I don't know the reason, I did realize that the man didn't want to see the next hunting action happen, but he was powerless to stop it."
"And the hunting event organized by the Holy See of Light will begin tomorrow."
God knows that Jisuo Town was hit by a monster riot three days ago.
It's not that it's not good to organize people to fight back now, but when I think about the town that was once trampled by monsters, only a few healing elementalists from the Church came...
Comparing the two, anyone who knows the truth will probably despair.
But all those who know the truth can only hide in the deepest part of the water, and even have to cover their traces with mud.
Sully lay on Roy's back and couldn't help biting the nail of his left thumb, which was something he would do unconsciously when he was anxious.
Ordinary people should not pay too much attention to the disputes among the upper class. This is the message that ordinary people have gradually engraved into their bones before crossing over...
So what should he do?
This question seems to be too unsolvable. Among the four of them, Mark is not a smart person. If Reich is the emotional quotient basin, then Mark is definitely easy to be fooled, except for some intuitive abilities...
IQ Basin.
Cyril was very young, and as for Roy...
In his opinion, ten gold coins are not a lot of money. Who can expect someone who receives this little bodyguard fee every month to risk his life to protect his employer?
It's too complicated.
Sully's IQ was not high enough, so he decisively gave up thinking and started to decide what he could decide at the moment.
"Roy is definitely going to the Monster Forest, so Mark will stay to protect Cyril and me. I will try my best not to appear in front of the people from the Vatican." Suli actually didn't realize that Roy had enveloped him with the elemental factors until now. He just thought that Roy carried him back on his back to use the adult body to cover up the figure of the teenager.
"So if we want to find a relatively safe place to live in this chaotic city, we can only rely on Cyril."
"As for the future, as individuals, since we cannot act on behalf of the main rescue workers, we can just collect the data we need to know."
For example, the number of extraordinary deaths that occurred in Jisou town during these three days.
Monsters not only have their own thoughts, but after reaching a certain level, they can also speak like humans.
Although the Crystal Winged Dragon wants to vent its anger, when it takes revenge, it will never forget the person it really wants to kill.
Sully doesn't know what Egbert is going to do, but as long as he is alive, he is destined to be hostile to the Vatican. By obtaining some evidence of the Vatican's conspiracy in advance, he can also impose corresponding sanctions when encountering a crisis.
Another thing is... Sully is like a mirror. If the person most important to him dies "accidentally", he will definitely do his best to investigate the truth of the matter.
It just so happened that even if they gathered together, they would still seem small. Roy was determined to go to the Monster Forest, and even if the other three equally weak people moved together, they would only be seen as huddling together for warmth.
Therefore, if we investigate some news at this time, it will not attract any attention because it is too inconspicuous.
After being taken to a relatively habitable place by Cyril, who was familiar with the terrain, Sully already knew that he would most likely have a nightmare tonight, which might even cause a fever tomorrow, so he said in advance: "We will go to question Mark about that grumpy guy tomorrow."
No one slept well that night.
At midnight, Suli had already fallen into a nightmare.
In dreams, the things that were deliberately ignored during the day not only become more obvious, but the lack of light and shadow also makes the atmosphere more terrifying.
Sully is an ordinary person who knows very well that he is afraid of watching horror movies, so he never watches them and never challenges his bottom line.
The effect of this nightmare on Sully was, as Cyril said, a fever from which there was no end in sight.
Before Roy joined the main force to advance into the Monster Forest, he could only hurriedly leave behind a few blocks of ice wrapped in towels so that Mark could take care of Sully.
But not long after he left, Sully climbed up with a dizzy head.
"Follow the plan."
Suli guessed that the grumpy guy might be the one who knew the truth.
After running for nearly an hour and splitting into two groups, we finally found the grumpy guy.
As soon as he saw him, the boy's facial features wrinkled into a ball in Sully's blurred vision.
"Why are you holding me back? Do you know that time is very important to me? I have no interest in playing with children."
Having said that, he wanted to leave immediately.
"But what if we knew you knew something and wanted to do something about it?"
Although all the premises of Suli's speculation are based on the fact that the irritable guy knows the truth. If the situation is different, or the opposite, this wave will definitely be a GG, and Mark will have to run away with him...
"What do you know?" The angry guy's face suddenly enlarged in front of Suli, causing Suli to take a step back uncontrollably. Due to his weak body, he almost fell to the ground.
Cyril glared at him. "Stay away from Sully!"
"Is your name Sully? Tell me what you know!"
"You were heading towards the Monster Forest, but I saw that you didn't seem to care about the coalition forces at all. Instead, you looked irritable... Can we infer that what you were worried about was the Crystal Winged Dragon that was besieged by them?"
"So I bet you know the truth."
The grumpy guy got even grumpier: "So what if I knew."
"You know why the Crystal Pterosaur attacked Jisuo Town, but don't you know how many people in this town died because of this?" Suli guessed that he should be related to the Crystal Pterosaur, but the relationship is currently unclear.
"But what do they have to do with me?" The grumpy guy responded without any emotion.
This made Suli stunned.
There is no need to discuss the superiority of their values for now. Sully calmed the grumpy guy down with just one question.
"Then do you know that there is a high probability that something has happened to the Crystal Winged Dragon's surviving child?"
