Chapter 397: Survive
Wisteria, Sir Lawlands Mansion.⌒
Xia Lan leaned against the wall and quietly listened to the information secrets that Winnie had drawn from Herbert in the past two days, shook her head because there was no valuable content in the information. He didn't know if Winnie was suspected of perfunctory and excuses. However, according to their agreement, there were two opportunities left for Winnie. He would not easily deal with Winnie before the opportunity was used up.
Perhaps Winnie knew that the information she had spied would not satisfy the other party. She sat on the sofa with her head tilted, looking exhausted, as if she had looked a little thinner.
"Sorry, this is the limit of my ability to spy. If I go on, I'm worried that it will really arouse Herbert's suspicion."
"You have four days left." Xia Lan said lightly. In Elderland's universal surviving method, six days are a week.
"I know, I will give you a satisfactory answer in these four days." Winnie's voice was filled with fatigue.
"Have you met their people in the past two days?" Xia Lan asked.
"No, but after hearing Herbert talk about it, he felt someone around the mansion monitoring him. Although it was secret, it could not hide his perception." Winnie sighed and said, "It is obvious that subverting Fang no longer trusts him."
Xia Lan nodded. Winnie did not lie. When he sneaked into the mansion, he sensed some hidden breath in the darkness around him. However, under the suppression of the class, he could easily prevent others from detecting his existence.
It has to be said that in terms of hiddenness, subverting Fang is perfect. Without some special abilities, they would not have survived the countless years of encirclement and suppression struggles of the Holy Hall of Glory. This is just the tip of the iceberg of subverting Fang's many powerful areas.
Fortunately, this is not the base camp that subverts Fangs, otherwise he would have died thousands of times.
Xia Lan left, after all, it doesn’t make any sense to stay here.
Every time she saw Xia Lan and Winnie coming and going without a trace, she would feel frightened and at this time she realized that she would feel this way when he became his enemy. Do you regret it?
Winnie smiled bitterly in her heart. Now she is talking about whether to regret it or not. Life is your choice. You should bear any consequences. You can't change the reality because you blame others. You just want to bear it yourself.
At this time, the rapid knock on the door made her wake up and come back to her senses, and a slightly panicked maid sounded outside the door.
"Madam, it's not good. A strange guest of unknown origin suddenly appeared in Lord Jazz's room."
What?
Winnie was shocked and quickly got up from the sofa and rushed towards the door.
"What's going on?" As soon as the door was opened, Winnie asked to the maid outside the door.
"I...I don't know either. When I was about to deliver the meal to Lord Jazz, I saw a stranger in the room. Then Lord Jazz said that this was a guest, so don't be nervous. But the guest looked really scary, so I quickly came to tell the lady..." The maid replied uneasy.
When Winnie heard this, she immediately left the maid and ran towards Herbert's room. She only looked around as she pushed open the half-closed door of Herbert's room, but she did not see the strange guest she mentioned.
"Winnie, you are here." Herbert on the bed opened his eyes slightly, looked at Winnie, who seemed to be searching for something in the room and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'm fine, I'm fine, the organization's people came just now."
"What are they here to look for you?" Winnie came to his bed and said anxiously.
"See that bottle of light green potion?" Herbert glanced at the cabinet beside the bed and said, "They are here to deliver me medicine."
Looking along Herbert's eyes, Winnie suddenly found a delicate bottle of medicine on the counter. She reached out to pick up the bottle, opened the bottle plug and sniffed it, and her face suddenly changed: "This is..."
"Dilute the life essence potion after the mix." Herbert smiled bitterly: "It seems that your plan is going to fail. The organization must make me atone for my sins this time."
Winnie looked at the light green potion in her hand with a gloomy expression. A voice in her heart was shouting loudly, smashing it, smashing it, if it smashed it, Herbert's injury would not be cured quickly, so he would not have to follow the subvert Fang and become enemies with Xia Lan, and his life would not be in danger...
"Winnie, don't do stupid things." Herbert seemed to see through Winnie's thoughts and shook his head, "Since the organization has already made up its attention, even if I smash the potion, they will let me take the injury. Unless I want to bear the reputation of a traitor, I will not be able to escape."
"Why do they do this? Don't you say they are humane? Then what's that?" Winnie's eyes turned red and couldn't help but feel sad.
"I said, they wanted me to atone for my sins. Maybe you didn't know that when I saved you, I had already violated the taboo of the organization. If I could not perform in this mission, the organization would definitely punish me severely afterwards." Herbert said bitterly. "Actually, they are giving me the last chance."
"But... you are likely to die!" Winnie could no longer control her tear glands, and the crystal tears flowing in her eyes finally slid down.
"Maybe, this is my fate as a member of the organization." Herbert sighed.
"What did they say to you? They insist on getting back to you as soon as possible?" Winnie said.
"Although the organization knew the clues of the task relics, it was unable to tell the truth or falsehood of the clues for a while, so it could only take a silent attitude. Once the clues of the relics were a trap, the organization's power in Port Louis would be devastatingly hit. The organization had to be cautious about this. However, recently, the organization discovered that things might change in a short period of time. The Lord ordered us to be on guard..." Herbert explained slowly.
"Isn't the power of your organization very strong?" Winnie wiped her tears and said, "What exactly makes you so afraid of your hands?"
"You seem to have forgotten the biggest enemy of our organization." Herbert sighed.
"You mean the Holy Temple of Glory?" Winnie thought in an instant.
"Who else can make the organization so afraid except the Lucky Church?" Herbert said in a deep voice: "Don't forget that this is the branch center of the diocese where the Lucky Church governs. If it weren't for the fear of shocking the Lucky Church's attention, the organization would have taken action long ago!"
"But sooner or later your affairs will be noticed by the Holy Temple of Light." Winnie said.
"We all know this, but as long as you get the relics before the shrine of the glory is dispatched, all sacrifices are worth it." Herbert said.
"Is this relic so important to you? It can even make you sacrifice your lives?" said Winnie.
"Although I don't know what the relic is, with the attitude of the organization towards the relic, this relic must be something extremely important to the organization, so it must not fall on others!" Herbert said.
"Take it to me."
As he said that, Herbert struggled to get up from the bed and reached out to Winnie for the bottle of medicine in her hand.
Winnie held the medicine bottle in both hands and hesitated for a long time, but finally handed the medicine bottle to Herbert. Some things cannot be avoided, and they will face them one day sooner or later. Since that is the case, it is better to make a decision earlier.
Herbert took the medicine bottle, pulled out the bottle plug and drank it in one breath. He seemed to have exhausted all his strength and suddenly fell back on the bed and gasped heavily.
"Winnie, believe me, I won't die."
"I know, and I won't let you die," Winnie said with her lips and her eyes red.
"After this incident, I want to take you to my hometown. Speaking of which, I haven't been back in my hometown for many years." Herbert smiled at Winnie.
"I don't even know where your hometown is yet?" Winnie said with a sob.
"My hometown, it is at the other side of the distant end of the Summer Wind Strait, which is a beautiful village surrounded by green mountains and clear waters... but... when I left, it has become a ruin." Herbert recalled.
He vaguely remembered that when he was a child, he and his sister were running and having fun in the mountains and forests. His parents snuggled in the distance and looked at them with a happy face. Carefreeness was the best portrayal of their family at that time.
However, one day.
A cavalry and a fire destroyed everything.
Hiding in the water tank, he covered his ears tremblingly, but the screams of his parents before they died were always lingering in their brains. The young sister finally burst into tears in a collapse. She was discovered in another water tank, and then the crying stopped abruptly.
He began to hear footsteps of someone approaching the water tank, and he began to realize that he was going to die.
In despair, the sound of approaching footsteps stopped.
He didn't know how long it had passed, until his hunger made him dizzy and unable to bear it anymore.
He opened the lid on the water tank and saw the blazing flames filled his sight.
In the courtyard.
He saw the body of his mother, he saw his father's head full of blood, with wide eyes open, and he saw his young sister piercing the wall under a spear...
As he knelt in the courtyard in a daze, howling heartbrokenly, a dark figure walked out of the flames.
He looked at himself and said.
"Do you want revenge?"
"think."
From then on, he became a member of the subverted Fang.
After countless cruel death training, he survived and successfully killed all the knights who invaded this village and all their relatives.
His revenge was over, but his heart was empty and numb.
Until one day, he met a man, someone who looked very much like him.
Her name is Winnie, Blancia Winnie.
