Chapter 11 Crimson Hand

After hearing Rebecca's words, Avis felt amused and laughed. If the sacrifice could repair the holy patterns of the Cup of Heaven, then this imitation made by the 14th Pope himself would be too valuable. In fact, clergy who reached the Holy Land should have the ability to repair them.

Therefore, it should be difficult for this imitation of the Cup of Heaven to restore its former glory. But this is still a rare prop. After all, not all the holy patterns on it have disappeared, and some are still left. Therefore, as long as you put clear water in and wait for a day, some holy water can still be produced.

However, the Holy Water can bring a lot of convenience to Ivis. And if you hand over this lost imitation of the Cup of Heaven to the Holy See, you should be able to gain their favor.

But Avis was a little strange. How did such a precious thing spread to this place. If you want to give this thing a price, several thousand gold coins should be considered small. Note that the ‘gold coins’ here are not ordinary circulating currencies, but Mensa gold coins, a currency that is almost impossible to depreciate on this continent.

After all, the issuer of Mensa gold coins is the Holy Light Church, the holy land called ‘Mensa’.

"By the way, Avis, when will you give me a gift?" Under the soft sunlight, the girl's smile was surprisingly beautiful. Avis thought for a while, and then smiled and said, "Well, yes. If I encounter a suitable item, I will definitely give it to you."

At this time, a sound prompt sounded. Ives was naturally very familiar with the sound. This was a prompt to receive the task. Hum? Is there a task?

Just as Ivis put the copy of this Cup of Sky into his backpack and checked the mission, his black pupils suddenly caught a person. The man followed behind Ivis and Rebecca. Although he seemed to be shopping, his attention was obviously on both of them.

If it weren't for his obvious attention to the eyes here, and Ivis's perception was also very powerful, it would be difficult for Ivis, who had no mental power to detect spells to find him.

Someone followed him? There was a smile on the corner of the Eternal Elf's mouth. He was the one who found out that he had picked up the bargain? But after a while, Avis carefully identified it, but found that he actually knew the person. This person was the mercenary Hades. If he remembered correctly, he should be the admirer of Rebecca.

Avis looked at Rebecca, who was excited and told him how lucky they were to win the Cup of Heaven, and suddenly understood that Hades misunderstood, or was jealous. Thinking of this, Avis suddenly felt a sense of laughter and crying. The young love of the young man was sometimes so speechless. Just as Avis was thinking about whether to say hello to Hades, the short-haired girl next to Avis followed Avis's gaze and saw the person.

"Hades!" The innocent and romantic Rebecca waved immediately, with a hint of excitement on her face. After that, she immediately ran to the person: "I said why did you finish your meal so quickly? It turns out that you are here to go shopping!"

Hades smiled unnaturally. He looked at the elf who was also walking over and said, "Ah, I didn't expect to meet you here. It's such a coincidence..."

Hades' unnatural expression may have deceived Rebecca, but it can't be hidden from Ivis's eyes. Perhaps only Rebecca, who is ignorant, has not discovered some of Hades's little thoughts at all.

Shaking his head, Avis didn't want to match this young couple. Because of Rebecca's bloodline, her future fate was destined to be bumpy. What Hades like now should be the normal Rebecca. If Rebecca's bloodline bursts out, Hades might be scared.

Avis shook his head and did not think about these issues afterwards. He smiled and said to Rebecca, "If you are interested, you can go here with Mr. Hades. I'll leave first."

Rebecca looked at the smiling elf, then hesitated and said, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?" She remembered that one of Avis's feet was broken.

"You may be underestimating the recovery ability of an elf too much, Miss Rebecca." Avis smiled, and then he looked at Hades: "I'm just tired of shopping."

Although Ivis would not match the young couple, he would not stop them. What Ivis meant now is to express his position. He would not become Hades' "love rival". To be honest, judging by the long age of the elves, Ivis is simply a minor, so it would be too early to fall in love.

Avis didn't want to join in the love between a young couple, but Rebecca didn't know about it at all. After seeing that Avis didn't seem to have the desire to continue shopping, she hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Well... it's getting late now, so let's go back."

Hades, who had just looked happy, couldn't help but look a little stiff after hearing Rebecca's words. Ives didn't know what to say, so he could only shrug and then walked into the tavern.

After returning to the tavern, he saw a familiar red-haired middle-aged mercenary saying something to the caravan leader there, and vaguely heard words such as "delay" and "danger".

Avis raised his brows slightly, and then he walked to Ganda, the commander of the Red-haired Mercenary Corps, and said, "Is there something happened?"

"Several caravans on this road have been robbed recently, and this road is no longer safe." Ganda said a little annoyed. He had a wine glass in his hand. After briefly explaining the reason for the incident, he took a big sip of ale.

The caravan leader said hesitantly: "Although our goods are not in a hurry to deliver to Fitkron, it is not good to be too late. If you can give a more accurate time, I can still wait. But now... you don't know how long you have to wait."

Ivis didn't want to wait too long, but the prairie was not a completely safe place. If you were on the road alone, it would be very dangerous. Therefore Ivis also said curiously: "If the caravan is robbed, it should attract regular troops, right? That shouldn't take long."

Although the Lanying Kingdom was seriously corrupt at this time, the regular army still had some combat effectiveness. Ordinary robber organizations should not have this strength to fight with the regular army.

"That robber organization seems to be the 'scarlet hand'." Ganda's words immediately made Avis and the caravan owner's face look surprised.

Avis pondered for a moment, and of course he knew that a very powerful organization. In fact, this organization is a level 30 copy, which was considered a tomb of a novice in the early stage of "ARO".

But if the memory is not wrong, the organization's base camp should be in the east of the Lansos grassland, close to the Stephenk coastline. This place is in the north of the Lansos grassland, and the distance is still relatively far.

"Their base camp... doesn't seem to be here." Although the reputation of Scarlet Hand made the caravan owner feel guilty, he still told Ivis's problem.

"I don't know either, but the strength of the robbed caravans is actually very good, and by the words of those survivors, the robbers are indeed wearing the flag of the Scarlet Hand."

Avis frowned. He was not an omniscient and omnipotent god. He didn't know what Crimson Hand did in July 338 of the Second Age. In fact, at this time of his previous life, he was brushing a copy of Fittcron's "Death Mines", and he had no idea what Crimson Hand did.

"Is it a change after the game becomes reality?" Avis was a little unsure. Since the game has become reality, the NPCs in those dungeons will not stay in the dungeons waiting to play themselves, and it is possible to run around the map.

It's so distressing.

Avis shook his head and said, "Then there are only three ways. The first one is naturally to wait. The Crimson Hand cannot keep robbing, which will cause public anger, so we can only wait for them to stop and then we can leave. The advantage of this method is safety, but it may waste a lot of time. The most important thing is that we don't know how long it will take to wait."

Ganda nodded, and then he pondered for a long time and said, "What about the second method?"

"The second method is to detour. This will also waste time, but the wasted time can be determined. But there are also disadvantages, because this method cannot guarantee absolute safety. Who knows the route of Crimson Hand? Moreover, walking on a path that is not prepared will lead to many uncertain factors."

"Then you should have a third solution." Ganda drank the glass of wine in his hand in one gulp. Avis nodded, "Fight to the death with the Scarlet Hand."

Ganda was stunned. He looked at Avis seriously. After a long time, he opened his dry mouth: "If I heard correctly, what are you saying is, fight to the death with the Scarlet Hand?"

The Eternal Elf shook his head: "No...even if the Scarlet Hand is not the main force, we should not have the strength to face them head-on. But if we can reach a village called 'Berry' and successfully let someone help, there should be a great chance of eliminating these Scarlet Hands."

"A man... who is he?" Ganda frowned. He could not let his subordinates die, so he needed to know who Avis was talking about.

Avis glanced at Ganda and said, "Well... his name is Icarus."

Knight of Heaven, can you save me...

Ivis talks about the strongest people that players can come into contact with in the early stages of the game, so he is a very famous person among players. But in NPC, his reputation is not very high.

So Ganda's brow frowned slightly. He had never heard of this person's name. Of course, he didn't find it strange. Avis was a wizard, but the wizard was famously knowledgeable.
