The Lone Wolf of Tomorrow's Ark

Under the influence of the low temperature and the hostages, the Grand Inquisitor finally chose to compromise, reached out and took a chair and put it away, and sat opposite Phoenix, and Phoenix restrained the cold and said:

"You go first."

"...Who are you, and what is the purpose of coming here?"

"Bounty hunter, you just came to find someone after receiving the money. I told you a long time ago, I don't count this."

"No, it's your turn."

After saying this, the Grand Inquisitor bent slightly, rested his elbows on his knees, crossed his hands and held his chin, and waited silently in this posture, guessing in his heart what the other party would ask:

'Is it the current situation in Saltwind City, or the current situation in some Iberias?The former is okay, it’s okay to say it, but if it’s the latter, then you might have to fight with the other party...'

Looking at the other party's serious attitude, although Phoenix didn't show anything on his face, he suddenly had a little bit of a bad idea in his heart, and then he heard him say:

"Tell me something embarrassing about your apprentice?"

"…………Um?"

"what??"

After a brief silence, the Grand Inquisitor was stunned to understand what kind of question Phoenix said, and Eleni was also quite surprised, wondering why the conversation between the two big guys suddenly involved herself?

However, although the Grand Inquisitor couldn't understand it, he still understood the importance of being able to confuse a problem, so he immediately said:

"When she's drunk, she likes to make bubbles on her mouth with her saliva, and she always says that she's a crab, that's how she should spit bubbles."

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!

The embarrassing things that I don't want to recall in my life are just told to strangers by such a trusted teacher. For a while, Irini even wanted to die, so she covered her face with her hands and hid on the other side, out of sight and ears Don't worry about it, how nice.

After Alini hid on the other side, Phoenix smiled meaningfully, and raised his hand to signal to the other party. This time, after a while of deliberation, the Grand Inquisitor suddenly asked a question that had already been asked. question:

"who are you?"

Chapter 740 Singer and Dancer

"........."

Keenly aware that the original intention of the other party's question was different from the first name asked, Phoenix did not answer immediately, but after a short silence, he said directly:

"Just a tired wolf."

"Sure enough..."

Phoenix's answer was ambiguous, and even meant to be a deliberate riddle, in order to confuse the public. Everything is left to the other party to guess, which is an extremely trouble-free dialogue strategy.

However, the Grand Inquisitor is not someone to be fooled with. As a high-ranking Iberian army, he naturally knows a lot of secret things, and the current Phoenix is ​​just like the legendary killer who has disappeared for several years in his memory. Right on the number.

No way, what the Silver Wolf did was too shocking. He broke into Kavaleriaki majesticly alone, and under the siege of a group of killers from the Harsh Alliance and some retired knights, he swaggered and killed the target and left him intact. Walk away without loss.

This kind of deterrence can't be ignored by the high-level officials of other city-states. For example, Iberia has shown the portrait of the silver wolf to all the senior troops early on. Naturally, the great judge has also seen it. Just in case.

But now, looking at the person sitting in front of him, although his clothes have completely changed, the Grand Inquisitor can confirm [-]% that this bounty hunter is the silver wolf who has retired among the killers, and he asked someone to estimate It's just a reason to deal with people, in fact, there is another purpose.

Thinking of this, the Grand Inquisitor silently glanced at Alini, who was still shrunk to one side and shut himself up. The thought in his heart was that if there would really be a conflict with Phoenix, then he must find a way to put Alini first. Just send it out.

However, at this moment, the Grand Inquisitor suddenly felt a cold feeling. When he looked up, he saw Phoenix was looking straight at him, with a somewhat displeased expression on his face:

"Believe it or not, it's my turn anyway, what happened here?"

"...This is a bit complicated to say, it may take some time to figure it out."

"It's okay, just say it."

After saying this, Phoenix leaned back slightly, as if he was ready to listen to the story, while the Grand Inquisitor was a little speechless by the behavior of a master like Phoenix, so he organized his words for a while and said:

"Your Excellency should be very clear about the 'Great Silence'."

"Of course, the catastrophe that almost wiped out half of Iberia, I know."

"Okay, that's easy to explain. In fact, during the period of the 'Great Silence', a xie religious organization appeared in Iberia called the Church of the Deep Sea. They claimed to believe in the mother goddess from the deep sea. The Great Silence This disaster was the punishment given by the Mother God because of the excessive occupation of the ocean by the Iberians."

"So, the current situation in Yanfeng City is actually caused by Naoshizi's Deep Sea Church?"

"...Communication with Your Excellency was really smooth."

Originally, the Grand Inquisitor thought that this communication would be very troublesome, but he did not expect Phoenix to understand very quickly, pointing out the key points he wanted to say in one sentence, which also saved him a lot of effort, although This made the wording he had prepared completely useless.

Phoenix, on the other hand, turned his head and glanced at the desolate street outside, and asked a little strangely:

"You know there are enemies here, so why are you and your apprentice alone here? The Iberian government is so weak that they just let the people be poisoned by the xie sect?"

"Sigh... What your Excellency said is actually quite reasonable, but it's definitely not because the officials are afraid of getting into trouble, but because the current Iberia really can't stand the extra trouble."

"Oh."

Phoenix understood what the Grand Inquisitor meant. It was nothing more than that after experiencing the "Great Silence", Iberia's national power suffered a serious loss, and it dared not make any big moves, for fear of attracting the attention of neighboring countries.

Iberia at this time period really cannot withstand an additional war. Although the existing countries on Terra are in a weird balance, this does not mean that they have no intention of continuing to expand their territory, at least There is also Ursus, who made his fortune in war, watching it.

If Iberia was not located by the sea and was too far away from Ursus, it is estimated that Ursus would have sent troops to incorporate Iberia into its own territory after the Great Silence.

Phoenix has always been extremely disgusted with this kind of situation where he is forced to restrain his hands and feet. He usually does things too. If he has enough means or strength to tear his face, then he doesn't mind being tough at all. It's not for any reason, just for the sake of Comfortable.

Hearing Phoenix's indifferent answer, the grand judge scratched his neck in embarrassment, then looked at Phoenix's impatient face, and asked tentatively:

"Where is your current workplace?"

"...an employee of a small company is not worth mentioning."

"understood."

The fact that the other party will not directly inform the real information, the Grand Inquisitor has long expected, or in other words, if the other party does not do so, he will wonder if the other party made up a name to fool him.

Silently wrote down another piece of information, the Grand Inquisitor immediately looked up at Phoenix, signaling that it was time for a rotation, but Phoenix first slowly changed a leg and continued to put it on. After thinking twice, he asked:

"How many church members are there in total?"

"So far, there are only two members. I don't know why there are only two members in such a big city. Do you think this place is not worthy of too much attention, or do you think that only two people are enough?"

"Are there only two...Okay, the last question, hurry up and ask, and I'll leave after I finish."

"…………"

Hearing Phoenix's words, the Grand Inquisitor fell silent. He didn't expect that with just a few questions, Phoenix had already learned the information he wanted to know. Now he can only delete as much as possible from the prepared draft for comparison. Questions that appear to be irrelevant, and then screen them one by one to decide which one to ask.

And Phoenix was not in a hurry, he just sat silently, shaking his legs slightly, quietly waiting for the Grand Inquisitor to consider his own problems.

Finally, after 3 minutes, the Grand Inquisitor finally had a result, and asked a question that surprised Phoenix:

"Are you a threat to Iberia?"

"…………"

Phoenix doesn't quite understand the other party's behavior. It's a bit too strange to ask the other party if there is any threat in front of the threat, isn't it?

However, Phoenix also quickly understood the meaning of the other party, then sat upright, turned around and walked out, and said:

"I'm just a bounty hunter, that's all."

After saying this sentence, regardless of whether the other party would not understand, or whether the other party would make up his own brain, Phoenix went directly to the street outside and began to return to the previous location at an extremely fast speed.

Now that his information has been collected, all that remains is to find a good opportunity at the right time and place, go directly to the church to freeze the culprit into an ice sculpture, and then bring back the poor abducted ghost shark.

Thinking of this, Phoenix's expression became much happier, because it didn't seem to be troublesome to solve the matter this time, but when he returned to the place where Skadi was, he saw a scene that made him extremely uncomfortable.

I saw Skadi leaning against a wall, and standing in front of her was a tall woman who was half a head taller than her. At this time, Skadi was being beaten by this strange woman... a wall? !

——What happens if you punch your stomach face-to-face——

"130 two, 130 three..."

While throwing a smooth pebble in his hand, while counting the number of times the opponent went up and down, Skadi is now like a bored child, sitting on the side of the road, looking quite pitiful, waiting for Phoenix's return, like a Like small animals.

It has been more than 10 minutes since Phoenix left, and because she was too bored, Skadi could only snap off a pebble on the wall next to him and throw it around like a toy, thinking about passing the time like this.

But obviously, such a simple activity has no effect on alleviating boredom. Skadi is still very bored, but she doesn't say much, but silently makes the decision to suck Phoenix hard for most of the day.

"How long has it been since I've seen you like this, Skadi."

"?!"

Just when Skadi was in a daze, a voice suddenly sounded from beside her made her body tremble involuntarily, and then she immediately stood up and turned her head to look at the source of the voice, a tall Agor woman, It was Gloria whom Skadi had been chasing.

However, after seeing her, Skadi didn't do anything, but silently shrugged her nose slightly, and then said with disgust on her face:

"Your body is full of stench, stay away from me."

"Heh, it seems that the long disappearance experience hasn't worn away your instincts. Fortunately, you didn't cry like a land cub and asked me where she went and why I was here."

"You think too much, I don't care about her at all, and neither do you, but she likes Xiao Fei, and I think her point of view is very good, so I treat her as a friend, that's all."

"Heh... I take back what I said earlier."

Speaking of this, Geletia's figure flashed, and she suddenly came in front of Skadi, slapped fiercely with one hand, and directly slammed the opponent's strong wall against the wall next to her, and said coldly:

"It seems that you have lost your edges and corners. You actually became friends with fragile terrestrial creatures, and you are hostile to your former comrades-in-arms and family because of this."

"Take back your words."

"Ok?"

Originally, Gloria thought that this scolding would bring Skadi back to her usual state, but she didn't expect that Skadi replied to her with an obviously angry sentence:

"I said, take your words back, Xiao Fei is not weak at all."

"... Chih, that's all, I'm a bit silly for expecting from you."

After saying this, Gloria felt mixed feelings of joy and sorrow. The joy was because Skadi was able to let go of everything and start a new life. This kind of mentality is actually quite good, but the worry was also because of this.

The deep-sea hunters can’t just retreat, because the monsters born in the ocean they have been fighting against—the fear fish, are not the masters who will let it go. They seem to have a natural hatred with the deep-sea hunters. Once they meet, they will fight directly. It's a fight to the death without hesitation.

Moreover, as long as the deep-sea hunter bleeds, no matter where he is, the fear fish will definitely come chasing the blood, vowing to tear the bleeding hunter to pieces before giving up.

Under such conditions, it is basically impossible for deep-sea hunters to have a continuous and peaceful life, so it is said that deep-sea hunters are destined to have a big gap with terrestrial creatures.

What Gloria is worried about now is whether Skadi can hold on to her hard-won new life. Although she looks cold, it doesn't mean she won't be sympathetic to her subordinates, it's just that the way she expresses it is weird. up.

When she arrived here, Gloria originally thought about leaving directly like this, and when she took the ghost shark to continue to fight against the fear fish in the deep sea, a stranger who suddenly arrived caught her attention!

The Lupus on land were wearing Iberian-style hunter costumes and carrying a large box, and his expression was a bit at a loss, as if he was shocked by the situation of Gloria and Scarti, It was Phoenix who had just returned from the Grand Inquisitor.

"He... doesn't seem simple, it feels wrong to me."

As the second captain of the Deep Sea Hunter, Gloria saw the unusualness of Phoenix at a glance, and at the same time secretly became vigilant in her heart.
