Chapter 271 Companion

Chapter 271 Fellow Travelers

When a group of people climbed out of the underground sewer, most of them were already panting from exhaustion.

In the past, these citizens of Jasintu would never dare to enter the underground sewers. Although Jasintu has a layer of granite that the orcs cannot penetrate, this does not mean that the orcs will not invade. In fact, they have always

I was worried about encountering Orcs in the underground waterways - fortunately, they had good luck.

"Okay, hurry up, now is not the time to rest."

Seeing his companion panting, the leading man frowned and spoke.

"I have made an appointment with someone, and he will take us to the trial court...but he will only stay until dawn! If we don't hurry up, we will be left behind!"

"Ugh..."

Hearing the man's words, the others were speechless for a moment, but they gritted their teeth and stood up and continued walking forward. Ever since they made the decision to leave Jacinto, there is no turning back now, and they have suffered from the plague.

It is impossible for them to continue living in Jacinto. Now they can only have a glimmer of hope by going to the Tribunal!

Soon, the group of people came to the ruins not far below Jasintu, and then they entered a dilapidated garage. It was pitch dark inside at the moment. However, the man leading the group just walked in, and saw a sudden light behind the dark garage.

The shining light shone on their faces, and then everyone saw two burly soldiers holding weapons and aiming at them!

"Are you...GEAR?"

Seeing this familiar soldier symbol, the man's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly raised his hand.

"We are not spies, we just want to get out of here! Damn it, do you have to kill everyone?!

"………………"

Facing the man's roar, the two soldiers looked at each other and then put down their guns. Then at this moment, another man came out.

"Stop arguing, they are not here to arrest you, they are also tourists."

"What do you mean?"

Looking at the homeless businessman who made the deal with him, the man looked confused.

"You mean...they are also going to the Inquisition?"

"That's right! Okay, hurry up and get in the car! I don't want to stay here for too long!"

At the urging of the homeless businessman, the man and the others boarded the truck uneasily. Then they stared at the two soldiers and quietly distanced themselves from them.

At this moment, the two soldiers also entered the compartment behind the truck and sat down. Then the vehicle immediately started and sped away into the distance.

"……………………"

In the roaring carriage, no one spoke. The refugees huddled uneasily, while two soldiers sat outside. One of the men with a crew cut took out a pendant and kept rubbing it. The other wore a turban.

The man looked at his comrades and sighed helplessly.

"To be honest, Dom, I'm not sure this is the right choice."

"I know, but now that I have the news, I won't give up, Marcus, you understand."

As he spoke, the man named Dom once again turned his attention to the pendant in his hand. Looking at his companion, Marcus shook his head and said nothing.

In fact, these two people are not ordinary GEAR soldiers. They are ace elites from Team D. They once showed their skills in the "Operation Light Raid" not long ago. Logically speaking, elite soldiers like them

, cannot leave Jacinto without permission.

But...Dom had to do this.

Because he is looking for his wife——Maria.

Before the Orc War began, Dom and his wife were raising two children. However, during the Orc War, their two children died one after another. Dom's wife Maria could not bear this blow.

, became insane, she always believed that her children were still alive, and always ran out to look for them aimlessly.

Finally, two years after the incident, when Dom went on a mission, Maria disappeared.

After that, Dom has been looking for Maria's whereabouts. He is convinced that Maria is still alive, but he has never gotten any clues.

It wasn't until not long ago that the Tribunal appeared, captured the underground Orc lair, and rescued the prisoners. Some of the GEAR soldiers inside also returned to Jacinto to report. At that time, Dom learned from these people that it seemed that

There is indeed a woman who looks very similar to the one in the photo, who is in the courtroom.

At that time, Dom actually wanted to go to the Tribunal to find his wife, but because of the current mission, he had to postpone his schedule. It was not until after the light quality raid was over that he found a way to go to the Tribunal through his own connections.

A convoy of homeless people, and made a deal with the other party, asking them to take him to the Tribunal.

In the eyes of the COG, this kind of behavior is tantamount to defecting, but Dom is determined to find his wife, and completing the light quality raid is his final explanation to the COG. So in desperation, his comrades

Marcus had no choice but to secretly leave Jacinto with Dom and go to the legendary tribunal.

At this time, Dom also found a convoy of homeless people who were willing to take people to the Tribunal through his connections among the homeless.

In the past, this kind of transport convoy was very dangerous, but now, because the Tribunal and COG have launched two consecutive attacks on the Orcs underground, the Orcs have been hiding underground and dare not come out. As a result, the transportation industry has become prosperous.

Get up, and for many homeless people, taking people to the Tribunal's territory can be considered a very cost-effective deal.

These convoys were not organized by the Tribunal itself, but they are not without benefits to the homeless. Under the current circumstances, the Tribunal has shown great power and can also bring a sense of security to the people. In addition, there is currently no

The plague is rampant in some places, and many people choose to leave their original places of residence for safer places, so these homeless convoys can also transport these people to the territory of the Tribunal by collecting rewards from them.

And now, it's the same.

After riding for two days and two nights, everyone finally arrived at the Tribunal—that legendary place.

"This is the Tribunal..."

Looking at the five-meter-high city wall in front of him, as well as the jet-black steel warrior standing at the gate, holding a gun, and the decoration of skulls and warhammers carved on the city wall, the man swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and then coughed violently——This

Over the past two days, he could feel that his body was becoming more and more painful, and the disease seemed to be eroding his body.

Now, there is no way out!

"let's go!!"

The man gritted his teeth and led the others to the gate. Then, they were stopped by two steel warriors.

"Who are you? What do you want to do?"

"I, we are here for help!"

Looking at the jet-black steel warrior in front of him who was more than a head taller than himself, the man hurriedly spoke.

"We want to survive... We are infected with the plague, and we can be cured here, right?"

"………………"

Hearing the man's words, the Iron Warriors looked at each other and then pointed to the side.

"Go in there and someone will tell you what to do."

"call……………"

Hearing the Iron Warrior's answer, the man breathed a sigh of relief. He had originally thought about concealing the situation on the road, but the problem was that their group was indeed infected with the plague, and anyone with a discerning eye could see it at a glance. Concealing it in this case was impossible.

It's useless. If the Inquisition can really cure the plague... then he might as well take a gamble!

Now it seems that he made the right bet.

Soon, the man brought others to the side. When they came here, they found that it was an empty place. On the other side stood another Iron Warrior, and beside him, there was a strange

statue of hammer head and skull.

"If you want to enter, just pray to it. After praying, you can enter the city."

"……………pray???"

Although as citizens of Jacinto, the man and others were already accustomed to filling out various applications when entering the city, this was the first time they encountered the need to pray. They looked at each other, but they still came to the strange statue obediently, and then

He began to pray. At the same time, the man clenched his fists and closed his eyes.

Please, please help me, as long as it can cure my disease, I can do anything!!

“————————!!!”

At the moment when the man prayed in his heart, he suddenly felt a shiver all over his body, and a cool breath emerged from his body. The heat and pain that originally surrounded his body, as if it was about to burn him out, were replaced by this cool breath.

In front of the aura——-it actually disappeared!?

"This this……………"

The man opened his eyes in surprise, and then he took a deep breath. In the past, even such an action would have been enough to make him cough out his lungs, but this time, he could breathe very smoothly.

With the fresh air, my tired and painful body became much more energetic!

How can this be?

Just by praying, will the plague I contracted be cured?!

It's that simple???

Or is it just a hallucination?

The man looked at his companions in surprise, and the surprised expressions on their faces told the man that this was not an hallucination caused by his fever. The plague that troubled them was actually cured?

How is this done?

"I, our illness is cured??"

The man looked at the Iron Warrior in surprise and asked cautiously. The latter just nodded slightly.

"Remember the kindness shown to you by the Tribunal, and you can leave."

After saying this, the Iron Warrior stopped looking at them, and the man and others hurriedly came to the side and got together.

"What should we do next?"

"Has our disease really been cured?"

"I can't understand why? Can prayer cure diseases? I have been praying all the time...why is this like this..."

Everyone's expressions were very complicated. Like the men, they all came here after making up their minds. Originally, they thought that they might encounter many difficulties after coming here. They even thought that they might be rejected, or even

Some sacrifices are required to gain the opportunity for treatment.

The result.........is it that simple?

Can it be cured so easily?

So what should we do with our determination?

"……………………"

In the midst of everyone's busy discussion, the man was silent for a moment, and then he raised his head.

"I have decided, I want to go back to Jacinto."

"You want to go back???"

Seeing that their leader actually wanted to go back, everyone else was shocked.

"Why?"

"Because others are still suffering! And now that we have found a cure for the plague, I will not leave them there to die!"

As he spoke, the man clenched his fists.

"I want to rescue them, instead of letting them stay here and be killed alive by COG!"

Then, he spoke.
Chapter completed!
