Chapter 202 Escape
His eyes swept back and forth in the cave, and suddenly, a dim but extremely conspicuous figure came into view.
It was a strange feeling. He was dressed in ordinary and low-key clothes, his whole body was covered by a tattered linen robe, and his whole body was in the shadow of the corner of the cave, but he was very conspicuous and could not be ignored subconsciously.
It's like there's gravity. Even if you throw him into a crowd, your eyes will be attracted to him at first sight, even if the person being attracted doesn't know why.
This person is not an ordinary person.
The returning team members defined the man the first time they saw him.
"You were not here just now, so I need to tell you that this is Levi. Yes, he is the legendary figure who has been in the limelight in recent years. Even those of us who have been on the front lines all year round have heard of him. You must have heard of him when you were in Gondor."
Kane introduced the returning players, and also introduced Levi:
"This is Trit, the one I mentioned to you before."
Hearing the noise here, Levi finished his work and came over.
"Is this the recruit who was captured?"
The returning team member immediately saluted and said, "Greetings, Legend of the North."
"Um."
Levi nodded, patted the young man on the shoulder, came closer and whispered: "Your captain has been very worried about you. He blames himself for what happened to you."
Cui Te was stunned and looked at Kane.
At this time, Kane also took two steps forward. He lowered his head and was silent for a while. Then he looked at his returning teammate Cui Te and said, "I'm sorry. Maybe I shouldn't have been so strict with you that day. As a new recruit, you have proved your courage by taking the initiative to come here."
"As the captain, I should provide guidance and demonstration rather than just punishing them."
Cui Te opened his mouth slightly and did not speak for a while, as if he had not expected that the captain, who was so strict in the past, would take the initiative to apologize.
For a moment, a certain belief in my heart was slightly shaken.
But that's all.
"No, Captain, you did the right thing."
"It is I who must apologize to you."
He lowered his head.
Kane said nothing more.
"It's good to be back."
Levi took out a bottle of healing potion and handed it to Cui Te, saying, "I see that your health is not very good. Drink it. This is the medicine I made. It will help you recover."
"Take it. Many people in our team were cured by this potion."
Seeing that Tritt was a little hesitant, Kane explained to him.
"If you have a good memory, you will not forget that one of his titles is 'Alchemist'."
"I see. Thank you."
Cui Te took the potion and drank it in one gulp.
It's a little sweet, and tastes like watermelon.
As the potion went into his stomach, the scars left by the previous torture by the Harad people were healed almost instantly. Not only that, even the deficiencies in his body were replenished a lot.
Miracle medicine! Cui Te stared at Levi, with a gleam of excitement in his eyes.
If this ability to make medicine could be used by Harad, it would definitely have a qualitative impact on the army.
I have to report this person when I get back, I can’t let him get away…
As for whether he could be taken away, no matter how powerful this legend was or how outrageous the legend was, he was only one person after all, without even a single follower.
Can he alone defeat our Harad army of thousands of people?
The brief reunion passed quickly.
At night, the base was quite quiet, with only the occasional calls of unknown creatures outside.
That night, all the rangers in the stronghold slept very peacefully, and no one was awakened by the pain of injuries.
When the team members who were on guard in the first half of the night returned, someone took the initiative to stand up and said, "Let me take the next shift."
"Tret, what you should do is take a good rest."
"Sorry, I just can't sleep."
The guard said, "That won't work either. The rotation has already been decided, and I can't interfere without authorization."
Cui Te looked a little depressed.
"Don't you trust me and think I can't handle this task?"
"Of course I believe you, but it's really hard to change this matter at the last minute. How about this, Cui Te, if you still can't sleep tomorrow, I can help you apply to the captain to change the rotation arrangement."
"Okay then, I understand."
Cui Te lowered his head and did not refute.
The team members did not waste any time. They turned around and walked deeper into the cave, intending to wake up their companions who were still sleeping.
As he turned around, Cui Te looked left and right, suddenly took a step forward, silently raised his sword, turned the direction, and pointed the hilt at the teammate in front of him.
Boom! This strike was so fast and accurate that the member on duty fainted and lost consciousness on the spot. Cui Te caught him and slowly put him on the ground.
After doing all this, Cui Te looked around again to make sure that there were indeed no witnesses to what had just happened and that there was basically no loud noise. He quickly grabbed the rope and climbed up.
"Tret? Why is it you?"
As soon as I reached the ground, a voice came from behind me.
His body suddenly stiffened, and Cui Te turned his head, only to see another team member hiding in a secluded place.
"I remember you're not on the rotation list tonight."
"I really couldn't sleep, so I took turns with the person on guard tonight."
“I see.”
"Which side are you in charge of?" Cui Te asked, his hand under the dark green cloak already touching the hilt of the sword.
I almost forgot about this.
According to past experience, guards are indeed teamed up with two people to look after each other.
I don't know if there have been any changes in the month I was away.
"North." the team member replied.
Cui Te was delighted.
"Well, I'll go south then."
"The white tree blesses you."
"The same to you."
The two men separated and moved towards the hiding spots they were responsible for, leaving the backs to their comrades.
Plop.
His heart was beating rapidly. Seeing that his comrades behind him had completely believed in him and were staring at the movements in the north, Cui Te quietly stood up, left his post and walked silently to the south.
He was not discovered until he walked quite far away.
——He really understands the habits of his own people too well.
But there is an outsider here after all.
And he's a person who doesn't need to sleep at all.
A line of sight was cast from a tree by the lake, watching the figure move away from the base and disappear into the night.
That direction, if I remember correctly, is the ferry crossing of the Harnen River.
Levi smiled softly twice and continued to look up at the stars through the gaps in the leaves.
Kane, Kane, your sincerity is really in vain.
This is a traitor.
After looking at the stars for a while, Levi jumped down from the tree, drew his sword, and was about to chase in the direction where Cui Te left, when suddenly an arm blocked his way.
"Um?"
Levi turned his head and found that the person coming was the captain of the commando team, Kane.
"So you know everything."
"I'm not stupid."
Kate shook her head with a complicated look.
