Miguel does have some skills.In just ten minutes, his thugs had already obtained the information revealed by Abel.In fact, this is not a big deal. Abel is a veteran of this. He colluded with a group of bandits and led the caravan to the road they reserved to rob in the name of scouting the way ahead.The robberies before were all small caravans. After a long time, the group became more courageous, so they set their sights on Miguel.

Although there is a contract between the merchant and the mercenary to bind each other, those who are willing to take risks will not care about it. There are always many ways to evade the power of the contract, not to mention this is in the Southern Continent.Therefore, except for Lauren, the rest of the people present did not show any surprise.

"Something's wrong." Idney knocked on the table when she heard this. She is sitting in the tent that Miguel set up. Ever since she exposed Abel's conspiracy, Miguel has become more respectful and polite to her. .She frowned and knocked on the table: "Most of their team members are halflings and goblins. As long as these guys have food, they can't spend much money. But their robbery frequency is too high." Deni thought of the badges that the gang was playing with, and couldn't help but have a bad feeling.

Miguel glanced at the thug under him, and the thug nodded, then turned and went out again.But no more information came, instead, Casey was so anxious that he was about to turn into a beast.Idni was a little helpless, it seemed that Abel was also an errand runner, so it was impossible to know too much.And Miguel also thought the same way, he looked at Idni, and asked hesitantly: "How about... let's make a detour."

Rather than fighting recklessly with thieves with unknown backgrounds, it is better to avoid them by detour. This is the businessman's idea based on safety, and of course Idni also maintains the same attitude of approval.But Casey jumped up and objected loudly: "No! What about Arnold?"

"Cathy, I understand your feelings, but based on the contract, we must protect the caravan. This is also your basic morality as a mercenary." Miguel put away his kind merchant face, and looked at the half-orc gloomyly. explain.

Kathy clenched her fists, her eyes dazed, one of the few things in her life where she had to choose.Of course she knew that she couldn't give up on A Nuo, but if she violated the contract, what would happen to their mercenary career in the future?At this time, another voice intervened in a timely manner: "The caravan continues to move forward. I will go with Casey to save people. You don't have to wait for us, we will catch up."

Idney sighed and pressed her forehead.She knew it, she knew her contractor would definitely show up.While she felt a headache, she was secretly angry. Did the other party really think that she was still a paladin of the light camp! (Idney has already categorized Lauren on her own initiative.) She lowered her hand heavily, looked at her contractor, and said, "You should know, this is not a good choice."

"Of course, but... just trust me, okay."

When those green eyes focused on Idni, even Idni nodded without knowing why.When she finally recovered from the other party's influence, she turned her head and saw Miguel's meaningful expression.Idni's face was tense, she pressed her forehead, and felt that she was acting weird recently, it seemed that the influence of the undead on her was far beyond that of an ordinary traveling companion.

According to Lauren's plan, the caravan soon set off again. This time they adjusted their positions. Due to the loss of thieves and archers, Idney had to go into battle in person. Well, so that she could be freed from a burden that wasn't hers.While Lauren took Casey to another direction, Idni looked at her contractor, thought for a while, and then ordered in a low voice: "If you encounter an emergency, please don't love to fight. Even if it's just you It's no problem for people to come back."

Lauren turned her head and smiled at Idni, her eyes were shining brightly in the morning sun, and Idni turned away awkwardly, not looking at her contractor.On the other hand, Miguel's expression of "I seem to know something" made the young mage's face darken even more.

This was the first time since the two met that the undead did something of his own volition.Edni recalled the undead's inexplicable attachment to that strange city when they first met. It was said that the undead drives the body with obsession. She couldn't help thinking, so what touched the undead this time?But Idni didn't think too much, the caravan still needed her to use her investigative eyes.Under the pressure of money, even the top students of the Dark Academy have to bow their heads.Idni concentrated her mind and resigned herself to driving magic, replacing the work that should have been thieves and archers.

In this age when mages were not too common, Idni almost became the focus of attention of the people around her. While guarding the convoy, they looked at the young girl from the corner of their eyes.Idni devoted all her attention to the visual sharing of the Detective Eye. After she confirmed that her meditation speed could keep up with the consumption of the Detective Eye, she gritted her teeth and summoned another Detective Eye.

Double visual sharing requires double or even more mental power to maintain. While secretly scolding herself, Idni threw her investigative eyes in the direction of Lauren uncontrollably.

I must be crazy!Idni thought so, and then drew out part of her mental energy to focus on the past, just in time to meet a pair of vigilant eyes.This is Lauren. She and Casey were lurking in the grass. The moment Idni's spiritual power leaked, the keen undead had already looked over.Edney was a little uneasy. She saw Lauren staring at where she was. After a while, Lauren seemed to smile and made a "relief" lip.

Idni abruptly disconnected her mental link, left that poor detective eye there, and focused on the other side.With half of the pressure reduced, Idni can do things with ease, and she still has the mind to think about other things.She felt that she had become a little strange since she recovered from her injury. She was always observing and watching Lauren unconsciously. Is it because Lauren's behavior was too undead?Or is it because she always seems to be covered with a veil of mystery that arouses her curiosity?Or is it some other reason?

Idni manipulated the Detective Eye to turn around, feeling that she was so bored, she couldn't help but inevitably, linked to that poor Detective Eye again.

The little guy was no longer where she was, and Idni looked at the darkness around her, feeling a little confused, her feet were soft, and she didn't know what it was.Idney tried to jump and felt quite comfortable. At this moment, one hand grabbed it out, and Lauren's magnified face appeared in Idni's "vision".Idni quickly manipulated the little guy to jump and turn around. They were standing on a flat place with a circle of fallen goblins around them. It seemed that they had just experienced a fierce battle.

"Okay, little guy, where is Arnold?" The big head of the detective eye was flicked lightly by Lauren, and Edni manipulated the detective eye to tilt her head to look at Lauren, just in time to see her smiling face. look.

This man, when he smiled like this, was really gentle, not like a dead soul.Edni thought so, and then manipulated the investigative eye to follow the place where she saw Arnold before, while Lauren and Casey followed slowly.Both halflings and goblins have a very sensitive sense of smell, so the smell of blood cannot be concealed.They didn't appear, which meant that there must be traps ahead. This idea went around in Idni's mind, and then it was conveyed to the undead with the help of the contract.She wasn't sure whether Lauren could still clearly feel her message from such a long distance.

And Lauren had already grabbed the Detective Eye and placed it in her arms. Only then did Idni realize where she was jumping just now... Her face was like a fire, and her spirit was disturbed, and once again The link with the Detective Eye has been broken.But this time, Idni directly withdrew the magic, and never dared to summon the Detective Eye to go back.

Miguel looked at Idni's face with some concern, turning white and red for a while, and finally couldn't help asking: "My lord, is there any problem with this road?"

"No problem." Idni managed to restrain her emotions, her face was tense, and she replied stiffly.

It was not until the next morning that the caravan welcomed the return of Lauren and his party.Lauren was not injured. In fact, even if she was injured, her undead traits would not be displayed.But Casey and Arnold were not doing well. Arnold delayed the treatment for two full days, and now he was dying, and Casey, the half-orc, also fell into an unknown coma.Seeing Miguel's expression, Idni knew that he was really in a bad mood for this situation, and it would be better to be dead than to bring back the two people who dragged down the caravan.

However, the attitude of Luo Lun and Idni still made this profit-seeking businessman endure. He sent doctors and herbs to accompany the team, but he did not show up.Idni also didn't want to face Miguel. Unknowingly, Casey and Arnold had been imprinted with Idni and Lauren. They could stay in the caravan to recuperate because Miguel didn't want to offend The reason for Idni, the mage of the Dark Academy.

Idney once again returned to the previous state of meditating at any time. Apart from routinely checking her surroundings with her investigative eyes every day, she hardly appeared in front of other people, and Lauren was responsible for taking care of the two wounded.Miguel simply arranged the two of them together with Idni and Lauren, so Idni saw the two lying in front of her whenever she opened and closed her eyes.

"The two of them signed a contract of life sharing." On a peaceful afternoon, after feeding the unconscious Arnold and taking the medicine, Lauren said.

Edney raised her eyes and looked at Lauren.There were two wounded people between them. Lauren sat next to Anuo and looked at the two of them: "The orcs are the family members of the beast god Karl, and the god of blood and war gave his family members the contract power of blood so that they can share it with others. Life force." Luo Lun said, sighed again: "Sharing each other's lives, even pure orcs, few people would use such a contract. If it is not the trust of life and death, who would dare to entrust his life to others. "

"So, is that why they moved you to save them?"

Idni asked this question out of nowhere.
