Sean just turned around and walked back along the other side.
Just take a look at the attributes of the people following behind!
But for Saroyan and his companions, they were very worried when the other party looked at them just now. Fortunately, the other party did not stay for long and then went back.
"Captain, has he discovered us?" A team member behind him suddenly spoke.
Saroyan glared at the other person, then realized that he had called the wrong name.
"team leader……"
At this moment, they were following the alchemists' team, dressed like a mercenary group.
"That shouldn't be the case. Didn't you see he just passed by, took a quick look, and then went back? Besides, the clothes he was wearing didn't look like those of a State Alchemist. His skin color and clothing made him look more like a noble... I think he's a noble from Lewis City. Did you notice there's a little girl in the group?"
Several people nodded.
In fact, the most conspicuous person in the entire alchemist team, apart from the carriage, is the little girl. The child has a clear voice and whenever she speaks, it is basically the loudest voice in the team.
"That's right, they should be the nobles who followed the alchemists to the imperial capital." said another person.
The journey will be much safer with the alchemist's protection.
"Then what should we do? When should we start?" someone began to ask.
"Shh!"
"It's definitely not possible now. We need to find a good opportunity to take action." Saroyan looked around and fell into deep thought.
"How about we start with this noble?"
He looked at the team members beside him. Although not all the alchemists in Lewis City were very powerful and some were just ordinary soldiers, the other side had more people.
Moreover, Rorschach and Rachel, who were in the lead, were known as the young generation most likely to surpass Kodal. They were also well-known among alchemists throughout the country. It would be disadvantageous for him to confront them head-on... It might be easier to start with the nobles, but it might not be a good idea to provoke the nobles.
Let’s take a look at it for now.
"There's only one road, so we just have to follow them."
"Um."
Several people nodded.
……………………
"How is it, Master Sean, did you find anything?"
Rorschach asked hurriedly as he just got back to the front.
"It's okay. I just saw some animals so I went over to take a look. I thought they were monsters but they turned out to be just ordinary wild beasts." Sean said casually.
"Is the beast with magical powers that the mentor is talking about?" Lucille came over and asked curiously.
The little head tilted...
The presence of her as a child in the whole team made the journey less boring.
"Yeah, the kind I told you about," Sean replied.
But deep down, I was following the purpose of the group behind me...
The favorability is almost always cold, even when they respond with a smile, which means that the other party's target is me!
Sean had only recently arrived in this country and did not originally belong to this timeline. It was impossible for them to target him, and he did not have any enemies. They should be targeting the entire team and he was just one of them.
This means that there are people keeping an eye on the team.
Occam?
Or those alchemical products?
Sean felt that Occam was more likely, as he was approaching the other party, who was in possession of the secrets of the so-called Survey Corps and was openly a fugitive from the country.
That would be great if that were the case.
Before, Sean was still thinking about how to maintain the relationship between the two sides. Once he rescued Occam and left, Codal might put the blame on him regardless of whether he was right or wrong... Now, with other people around, he doesn't have to take the blame.
Keep walking with the team.
On the first day, the team rested in a tavern about ten kilometers away from Lingnan Town.
In fact, such a small place could no longer accommodate more than 200 people to rest. Most of them still camped outside. Even Rorschach and Rachel slept outside. The rooms in the tavern were only for some team members who were tired or physically weak to rest, and of course, Sean and the other two who were guests.
At night, a bonfire was lit in the camp outside. After dinner, Sean kept his eyes on the people who were also staying in the hotel. Their rooms were actually very close to his own...
"Teacher, should I continue practicing today?"
"No, it's best not to practice magic while traveling, otherwise you will be very tired the next day." Sean said.
Just like when he first started learning magic, he practiced every night to improve his proficiency. However, if he practiced like this while traveling, his magic power would not be restored the next day and he would feel very tired. Then on the third day... the fourth day... he might not be able to hold on. Lucille is still growing, so there is no need for her to work so hard.
"Oh, then I'll go to sleep first, mentor!"
"Yeah. Let's go to bed early..."
I took a look over here and found that Sean was always looking at the situation outside with his eyes wide open, but he just couldn't sleep. I turned over and asked in a low voice.
"Teacher, is there anything outside?"
"No one. I'm watching the situation at the camp. We have to protect them, so I'll keep an eye on it."
In Sean's opinion, Lucille and Rachel had a very good attitude. To be honest, he just wanted to get some information from the alchemist and had no prejudice against the young lady herself. There was no need to make the little girl wary of the other party because of his relationship, and she couldn't do it at her age.
