Chapter 149 Lucky Coin
Chapter 149 Lucky Coin
Coming out to perform missions in the middle of the night was one of the things James was most unwilling to do in his life.
Especially at this moment, at the request of the leader, he still has to take a "Backdoorguy" whom he despises - a person who should have started as a trainee knight, but now he has been directly promoted to a golden knight - to go out to execute together Tasks, this must be the thing he hates the most, and there is no one.
Therefore, he deliberately walked faster, just to give this rookie a little color, so that the newcomer understands that even if he takes a shortcut through the leader's door, he must speak on his strength in the Knights.
But what James didn't expect was that this "Backdoorguy" actually had two brushes.Although he was already walking very fast, this rookie was able to follow his footsteps without making a sound, and the sound he made was still very small, and he couldn't even hear the sound of his footsteps unless he listened carefully.
It seems that the strength of this new guy should not be underestimated.James secretly thought in his heart: As expected of the person who has been with the leader in the real world before, he is still much better than ordinary people.
Although he has seen some of Jiang Shui's strength, James still doesn't have a good impression of this kind of guy who came through the back door—even if this guy is very strong, the span of breaking the rules and being promoted to the Golden Knight is a bit too big—— Of course, in addition to this official reason for fighting injustice for other newcomers, James also inevitably mixed some of his personal thoughts.
James was not used to the fact that the leader suddenly paid attention to other people's affairs besides him.This made him feel like returning to the past when he and Feb competed together for the captain's personal knight.
That period happened to be the period he hated the most, because his strength was indeed not as strong as Feb, and this fact somewhat dampened his proud self-esteem.
But fortunately, the team leader chose him in the end, and Feb also quietly left the Divine Bless Knights after the team battle last year.
I really don't know what Feb is thinking.James didn't understand what else Feb was not satisfied with as a paladin, why did he leave the Divine Bless Knights so suddenly?
Just as James was recalling the past, the rookie knight who "went through the back door" who was following him - Jiang Shui, suddenly looked in the direction behind them.
As the only paladin in the group, James' five senses are naturally much stronger than ordinary people, so the moment Jiang Lai turned his head, James, who was originally distracted, immediately noticed Jiang Lai's movements—— Even if Jiang Lai's movements were slight, he didn't even make any sound.
The center of the silver helmet just exposed the eyes of the knights, and James' gaze from it was as sharp as a falcon, and he also unceremoniously looked directly at Jiang Lai who was behind him—his gaze It's almost like torturing the enemy.
However, he still tried to maintain his demeanor, at least on the surface he looked like a real gentleman.He asked Jiang Li politely: "What's the matter, Jiang Fei? What were you looking at just now? Or did you find any problems?"
Hearing James' question, Jiang Lai immediately retracted his gaze and turned his head back.Then, he shook his head slightly, "Nothing."
His voice still sounded so cold, and his tone didn't show any ups and downs.To James, it seemed as if he was deliberately imitating Jiang Ke.
Jiang Lai recalled the two familiar figures he saw in the corner just now, and denied again: "I'm not looking at anything."
However, James obviously didn't quite agree with Jiang Lai's remarks—maybe it was out of resentment, but also because he noticed that Jiang Lai repeated what he said just now, which is a subconscious thought of human beings. To cover up the act of lying.
So, James immediately raised his hand to signal to the people behind him, and the team behind them also stopped their progress very quickly in a very well-trained manner.
James immediately looked in the direction where Jiang Lai turned his head just now—it was a quiet and dark corner, it was hard to find if you didn’t look carefully, so it was very suitable for voyeurs to hide there—but At this moment, there was no one there, not even a wild cat.
James looked back and forth carefully several times, but he still couldn't find the rest of the people around the team.Maybe he was really worrying too much.
"Go ahead." Since there were no peepers, James had no choice but to order the team to move on.But before he left, he still said to Jiang Li: "If you find anything, please let me know."
"Since you have joined the Divine Bless Knights now, you are one of us, and you must abide by the Knights' principle of 'defending the people and being absolutely loyal' just like us." When he said this, his tone paused: " I hope there will be no traitors in our organization."
Jiang Lai is still not good at communicating with people, so he doesn't have any special feelings about James' words that sound like warnings—however, even he who rarely communicates with others can still clearly feel That inexplicable hostility from James.
This afternoon, after Jiang Sleet returned to the living space, Jiang Ke took him directly to the headquarters of the Divine Blessed Knights in the City of Survivors, and she also publicly announced her decision to appoint Jiang Sleet as the "Golden Knight".
Jiang Xun didn't know much about the hierarchy system within the Blessed Knights, but when he saw the trainee knights throwing at him with envious eyes mixed with envy, no matter how unsophisticated he was, he immediately Come to understand - the level of "Golden Knight" is probably not something that a newcomer like myself can achieve immediately.
He guessed that Jiang Ke was an exceptional promotion for him.That's why it's so enviable.
But the moment this conclusion came to Jiang Lai's mind, many doubts also surfaced in his heart.What puzzled him the most was that since the last time he went to the Divine Blessed Knights to look for Jiang Ke, Jiang Ke had never been very enthusiastic about him.
Not even lukewarm, because at that time he felt that Jiang Ke's tone of voice to him was no different from that of a stranger.
But why did Jiang Ke personally bring people to look for him outside the City of Survivors after he finished this mission? It wasn't because he was narcissistic that he thought so, but because he felt that Jiang Ke must not have done it accidentally. see him in.
Jiang Xun could also feel that Jiang Ke's purpose in looking for him was to let him join the Divine Blessed Knights.
Moreover, after they returned to the Divine Blessing Knights together, Jiang Ke even promoted him... These deviations from the previous cognition made Jiang Xun could not help but start to doubt Jiang Ke's real purpose in coming to find him. What.
There was still some distance from everyone's destination, and Jiang Xun's memory returned to earlier this afternoon, the moment when Jiang Ke told him the secret about his former teammate, Si Yufeng.
Jiang Xun clearly remembered that Jiang Ke had a smile on his face at that time.In the ten years before entering the living space, he had never seen Jiang Ke smiling.
On the cold face near the water and smoke, the smile revealed is also very hazy, just like the Jiangnan landscape shrouded in misty mist.
But Jiang Xun can infer from this vision that Jiang Ke's purpose is probably "drunkards don't want to drink" - the real purpose of her looking for him should not be him, I am afraid, it is his former teammate, Si Yu Feng's body.
But this question confuses him again.Even though Jiang Xun knew Si Yufeng's secret now, he still didn't understand why Jiang Ke had trouble with Si Yufeng?
Jiang Xun can now be sure that Jiang Ke must have something to hide from him, and she didn't tell him all the things she was focused on.At least, the most important part—that is, the part that Jiang Ke really cared about—she didn't tell him.
While Jiang Xun was thinking and wandering in his mind, James and his party had already arrived outside the City of Survivors.
After leaving the city, the surrounding trees gradually increased. The moonlight, which was not considered bright in the first place, appeared weaker and cooler under the cover of lush branches and leaves.
Jiang Lai's eyesight is already at the top level in the category of ordinary human beings, but after coming to this environment, he still can't see the distant scenes clearly, and even the nearby objects look a little blurry.
However, James and the other gold or silver knights around Jiang Lai seemed to be unimpeded by the darkness of the night, and their pace of progress was still exactly the same as the speed in the city.
You must know that this temporary partner team is not composed of the top members of the Divine Blessed Knights.It is even more difficult for Jiang Shui to imagine how many unknown masters and secrets are still hidden in this Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, the most advanced organization in the living space.
Just like now, James just came and took him away in the middle of the night, saying that Jiang Ke asked them to perform a certain task together, but he didn't tell him clearly what the task was to be performed.
Jiang Lai is a taciturn character, so he followed James directly at that time, without asking them about the detailed task content.
If Zhang Jian were here, he would probably laugh at him: "They've all been sold, and they're still counting the money for others!"
However, Jiang Xun was the only one here now.
And maybe from now on, no one will remind him again.
Soon, James led Jiang Li and his party through the dense forest and came to a wide asphalt road.
Inexplicably, Jiang Xun felt that this straight asphalt road was somewhat familiar... as if he had been here before.
When he saw the huge plaque with "TravelerHotel" engraved on it not far away, it was the first time he returned to the living space after completing the game qualification test task. The place.
If he remembered correctly, Si Yufeng also lived in this hotel with him at that time.
James and the others didn't go directly to the "Traveler Hotel", they just found a relatively hidden location not far from this hotel, and the whole team hid.
But Jiang Xun heard the tinkling sound of the armor on his body, and he couldn't help thinking: Are these knights serious if they want to sneak at night wearing this armor...
Then, Jiang Shang heard that James was there and began to assign tasks to everyone.
"Let's hide in this place first, and then observe those who will pass by here. Because this is outside the city, the hotel is not under our jurisdiction... If you find anything unusual, don't rush to do it, we will This time I came here just to check the accuracy of that news."
It sounds like the mission this time is not very difficult - it should just be a simple sentry mission.Jiang Lai originally thought so in his heart.
But then, what James said made Jiang Xun, who had always been silent, couldn't sit still, and even looked a little excited.
"...According to the informant, our people found traces of 'lucky coins' here... This is also the purpose of our coming here, to confirm the authenticity of this news..."
After hearing James mention the "lucky coin", Jiang Lai's calm mood suddenly became turbulent.
Lucky coins are also one of the secrets that Jiang Ke told him.
This magical item can only be obtained by the final winner in the team battle between high-level organizations every year-it is said that after using it, the system can grant any of your requests.
Even if it is to resurrect the dead, or even send you back to the real world, no matter what kind of requirements, the system can satisfy you.
In addition to his teammate, Jiang Xun finally agreed to join the Divine Blessed Knights, and there was also a reason for this.
He wants to get "Lucky Coin" and let the system help him realize a wish that is almost impossible under normal circumstances, that is——
Revive Shen Yu.
Although Jiang Shuang no longer has the memory of that day, he learned of Shen Yu's true identity through Jiang Ke, that is, the NPC of the living space.
Jiang Xun naturally knew that Shen Yu would not be able to return to the living space alive if he died in the mission.
Therefore, he had to get a "lucky coin" and use it to revive Shen Yingying's brother, Shen Yu who died because of him.
