115. Revisit
When Lance and the others arrived, Yiwen, who had sat up from the bed, had already passed the initial panic, but she still looked at Lance in surprise: "Where is this place?"
"Welcome to the Abyss, Miss Ever-Lefife Penn."
"here it is……"
"It's like a fake one." Lance nodded with a smile.
But Yiwen couldn't be happy at all. Her little face was pale. In fact, no one would be happy to be taken to a strange place. She looked around like a rediscovery. The architectural style was completely different from that of Beirud. Maybe she had really gone to a different world, not to mention that Layla, Lance and the guards at the door were all not like humans.
Yiwen couldn't help but sigh, feeling a little guilty: "My devil, since you are unwilling to agree to my request, why should you bring me here?"
"Don't you remember?" Lance asked.
"What?"
Yiwen's reaction was not like a false one, but was really confused. After thinking about it, Lance continued to ask: "Then do you remember what happened when we left?"
Yiwen's eyebrows frowned and muttered, "What happened...? I remember I felt a little discouraged at that time, and then..."
"Then?" Lance couldn't help but leaned closer.
"Then I couldn't remember it clearly." Yiwen herself was also puzzled how her memory was suddenly interrupted.
"So you can't remember what happened afterward?" Lance continued.
Yiwen hesitated a little, but finally nodded.
Lance kept looking at the other party's eyes, trying to see whether there were traces of lies from it, but the clearness of his pupils made Lance give up some suspicion.
He said: "Miss Yiwen. You forgot one thing."
Yiwen tilted her head, causing her sleepy blonde hair to slide down her shoulders softly, looking at Lance with a little confusion: "What is it?"
"I have agreed to your request, and the contract between us is established." Lance replied.
This answer was so unexpected that Yiwen was stunned.
"Huh?" Overjoyed, it was no longer enough to describe her mood at this moment. If you want to say why, because the other party had obviously refused so righteously before.
"Is this true?" Yiwen had to ask again carefully. She was afraid that this would be just a joke like a mirror, but when she saw Lance nodding calmly, tears in her eyes overflowed uncontrollably.
The girl was both happy and aggrieved at this moment, and she also felt a little uneasy about the future.
"That's it. I'll inform you of the specific steps after I've arranged them. You'll be at ease here in the past few days. Remember not to run around. A single human is very dangerous in the abyss." Lance instructed, and he pointed at Layla again: "Lyla is my maid. Although she may not speak, she will be responsible for taking care of you during this period."
After explaining this, Lance gave Layla a few more instructions in the words of the abyss, then turned around and prepared to leave. However, Yiwen suddenly called him from behind: "Mr. Demon."
"Uh, call me Lancelot."
"Lord Lancelot," Yiwen wiped the tears on his face with his hands. Although his eyes were red, the girl's eyes were still shining brightly. "I will use this life to repay your kindness."
Lance was slightly stunned. He just waved his hand and walked out of the room with Fiona.
But Layla looked at his back with a little desolate look, and chose to stay in the room and stay with the new girl.
After Lance left the door, he did not go back to his study, but left the county chief's mansion directly. He led the guards to find Mosen. Mosen was not surprised to see the frame of Lance. In fact, he was appointed as a recruiting caravan by Lance, and the two of them would meet sooner or later.
When it comes to selection work, Lance's requirements are not high. As long as it matches the appearance, the difference should not be too big, so it can be accepted if it is disguised. Such people are actually just a mixed race of humans. Although they will have more or less characteristics of other races in the abyss, they will not be easily discovered if they are covered up. The only problem is that the group of people needed by Lance must be firmly controlled by him and need them to understand human language, which is very difficult. In today's abyss, Layla and his generation have already cut off human language, and there are only some older people, and they can even get bumps and bumps.
Mosen thought Lance was here to test the results this time. In fact, this work has only been going on for two days. It is really hard to say that he has learned something. Mosen himself also has a lot of affairs to deal with, so he naturally cannot just focus on one part. He thought that if the county magistrate asked, Lance would probably disappoint.
But in fact, Lance didn't come to ask him about this.
"Mosen, I have taken the time to sort out the recent affairs, and I have explained everything I need to explain. We will proceed according to the booked plan. For the next period of time, you and Heigang will be fully responsible for Guruling and Feront County. As for those details, you two will make up your mind together."
That's right, Lance came here to say goodbye this time.
This surprised Mosen: "Mr. County Master, are you going to go next?"
Lance answered very simply: "In the next period of time, I will go to the world to clear up the details and touch the old things over there. After all, there is still one month left to be a demon tide, and the supply of materials cannot be delayed. You train people here, and I will make good channels and grasp them together to be more efficient."
"But it's too dangerous. Don't you plan to bring Mr. Heigang together?"
"He has what he wants to do here, and it's too conspicuous to get there like him, and he's recognized at first glance."
"But……"
Mosen wanted to say something, but Lance reached out to stop him: "For safety, I will bring Ravenkes and Victor with you, so you don't have to worry."
Seeing that Lance had made up his mind, Mosen didn't say anything more.
Lance actually didn't bring many people this time. After all, they did not rely on force to conquer, but instead talked about business with others in a friendly manner. There was no need to be too many people in terms of number of people, and it would be difficult to control if there were too many - Lance didn't want to be too eye-catching.
Victor and Ravenketh naturally greeted each other early in the morning. When the two demon kings heard this, they had the opportunity to travel to the mysterious world. This was much more interesting than the dungeons that they had been spitting out. The two unreliable boys naturally would not refuse, and they even urged Lance to set off every now and then, for the other candidates, Lance brought a team of guards including Parker (they were not too weird in appearance), and then the group moved towards Aikil's residence.
After they arrived, Aikil had almost prepared, and he was stuffing some of the small inventions he had accumulated into the accompanying package.
Lance didn't urge him, so he sat and waited for a while. After Agil packed up his belongings one by one, he asked, "Okay?"
"Okay." Aikir nodded.
The group rode a dragon and rushed to Beiling again. They changed into the wolves and entered the heart of the mountains again, the entrance to the mysterious cave.
This time, the situation became slightly different from the original one. The narrow entrance was obviously widened. The first time people were looking around curiously. Lance had already taken the lead in walking in. Victor couldn't help asking: "Brother Lance, is there really a gate of time and space hidden here?"
This is just a casual question, and the answer is just a nod and a promise is enough. But Lance's answer to Victor is not the current question, but: "From now on, if you want to speak and ask questions, you must use human language. If you don't, then shut up and remember whether it is - if you really can't do it, leave it for me now!"
When Victor heard Lance's words, he didn't dare to talk nonsense, so he quickly covered his mouth with his hands.
Because of the previous visit, Lance and his team took this trip very smoothly. After arriving at the human world over there, a mountain path lingering out appeared in this valley.
The answer is obvious - the cavemen have been here before Lance and the others. And according to Lance, they opened up an authentic tunnel to the grassland.
Lance thought about setting their landing location too close to the valley or to a village close to humans, not a good idea. But if you choose to go to the green plain west of Lar Village, you can pretend to be a caravan to trade with the elves and disappear on this vast grassland, and no one will easily discover it.
The last time I came, I was in a hurry and left abruptly. Because of the prophetic poem by Wen, Lance and the others returned without any delay. However, they did not forget to prepare for another visit. Now they changed their clothes and drove into a carriage toward the human village slowly.
This time, Lance could not wander around with nothing like last time, but instead came with a purpose to visit several names on the list that had been recorded.
Bald Pallas, the Night Owl Gurut, and the newly-rise border merchant Kuka are all the characters that Lance needs to visit this time, and perhaps the Duke of Murphysus, but the meaning of Lance visiting the latter is completely different from the previous ones. Since he promised Yiwen, Lance will not just be perfunctory, but will treat it as a matter of serious matter. He needs to leave this seemingly ordinary but strange power to observe the effect of her prophecy, find a breakthrough, and to eliminate a human being. To be honest, Lance really doesn't take it too seriously.
With Ravenkes Gavector beside Lance, and with Fiona's magic support throughout the whole process, Lance doesn't feel any difficulty in killing a mere human, but this job cannot be left there, so Lance is not in a hurry. Moreover, he said that revenge needs to be done by himself, and it is not just to tease the other party on that occasion. In the eyes of the demon, killing the enemy with his hand is a matter of course.
However, at present, the main priority is to open up a trade route - killing a human duke is just by the way.
With this plan, the work that Lance and his friends were going to carry out next was also very straightforward. As soon as the county magistrate, who had always been known for his decisiveness, arrived at Lar Village, he immediately began to inquire about the merchants on his list. This made Ravenketh and Victor, who wanted to visit the entire village but were detained, were very dissatisfied, but Lance used the look that could kill people directly in the next second, completely silenced the two guys.
In order to prevent these two guys who like to make trouble for him, Lance entrusted the surveillance task to Fiona. Victor immediately became honest without saying a word. After Lavenkes got the promise that Lance could give them some time to let them go after the business was completed, he would not say anything more.
Things went very smoothly. Pallas, Gurut and Kuka are worthy of being celebrities in the business community of Lar Village. Lance got a lot of relevant news after just inquiring. However, the bald Pallas is not in Lar Village now. His stalls are everywhere, but most of the people who stay here are his subordinates. After excluding this one, there are two choices left by Ye Xiao Gurut and the newly promoted big businessman Kuka.
"I saw Kuka chatting in the tavern before. If you go now, you might be able to meet him." said the vendor who was asked by Lance.
Lance did not talk nonsense, and after throwing out a few silver coins for consultation fees, Lance and his men rushed to the tavern called "The Tail Pavilion of Beasts and Fishes".
