Main Volume Chapter 62 Routine
Time passed quickly, and an hour went by in the blink of an eye. During this time, Zhang Yun and Lucina talked about all kinds of interesting things, and the relationship between the two was rapidly sublimating.
On the other side, the black-robed Ajid, who was struggling on the road, finally couldn't hold on any longer.
It stopped about ten minutes away from Zhang Yun by sea, flew to the sea, threw the wood it carried with it into the sea, and then lay on the huge wood like a duck floating on the lake, slowly recovering its strength.
Based on the estimated time, Zhang Yun switched his perspective to the Ocean Follower. Through the turbid sea water, he just saw the Akito monster floating on the sea.
good!
Finally a new round of rest has arrived!
It's time to deal with you!
After thinking about it, Zhang Yun climbed up from Leviathan's back, twisted his muscles and bones that were numb from lying down for a long time, then looked around at the rolling waves and took a breath of fresh air.
"Spirit Crane!" He snapped his fingers and called out the previously summoned flying follower "Spirit Crane" from the summoned beast space, then turned over, climbed onto its back, and rode on it.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Zhang Yun suddenly stand up, Lucina was a little confused.
"There's a guest following us. I'll go take care of it."
"guest?"
After a pause, Lucina understood what Zhang Yun meant. She immediately turned over and got up, tidying up her messy long hair.
"I will go with you!"
"Blue-feathered bird..."
Zhang Yun waved her hand to stop the blue-feathered bird from flying over: "No, I can go alone, you stay here and have a good rest."
Lucina stared at him in confusion, "Why?"
Looking at Lucina's puzzled eyes, Zhang Yun sighed and explained: "I want to use some special methods to find out the situation of Ajid, so I have to meet it alone. If you come with me, it will be difficult for me to operate."
Lucina tilted her head: "Is that so?"
Zhang Yun said, "Yes, wait a moment. I'll come back when I'm done. I'll tell you my plan and what happened then."
After thinking about it, Lucina didn't say anything more, but agreed: "Okay, go ahead!"
Then, Zhang Yun rode on the spirit crane and flew towards the direction where the black-robed Ajid was.
Within ten minutes, he saw the poor Ajid lying on the wood, and Ajid also noticed this "uninvited guest" flying in the sky.
"Discovered?" Ajid shouted in panic, and immediately took off into the air, flapping his two huge wings to keep a certain distance from Zhang Yun.
"Ah!"
"What are you nervous about?"
"I didn't mean to kill you."
Zhang Yun sat on the back of the spiritual crane, smiling, but with an inexplicable sense of oppression.
Hearing this opening remark, Ajid frowned and felt a great deal of pressure in his heart.
climb!
Others don’t know!
Don’t I know that yet?
The monsters you summoned can fight against beings of Batya's level. It would only take a few minutes for them to kill me. And you still tell me not to be nervous?
I'm not nervous at all!
Zhang Yun said: "Ajid, I know you have a way to track Lucina's whereabouts, and I also know that you want to tell other accomplices about Lolo Island so that they will be wary of me. Unfortunately, I think it is unrealistic for you to do it alone... "
After hearing this, Ajid raised his eyebrows, a slightly unnatural expression appeared on his face, and then returned to normal.
hehe!
It is true!
My guess was right!
But... you Ajide are so capable, but you still rely on such primitive methods to transmit messages. Isn't that too backward?
Is it not possible to train creatures like pigeons to act as messengers?
In fact, Zhang Yun didn't know that it was very troublesome to train flying birds as messengers in this country. Except for the kingdom that used special Warcraft messengers, other forces would not use flying birds as a way to transmit information.
Because every city has extraordinary beings like magicians and archers. When they are guarding the city, once they find any unusual flying creatures nearby, whether they are magical beasts or ordinary wild beasts, they will shoot them down.
The reason for doing this is to prevent certain "small actions" such as sending secret letters and to make a fortune.
After all, it is a rare bird and might be very valuable.
Even if it is not valuable, it doesn’t matter. You can just shoot it down. It doesn’t take much effort, and you can have it as a snack in the evening and enjoy a delicious game meal.
If it is a monster, there is no need to think about it. No matter whether it is common in the area or not, the soldiers will shoot it down to prevent these dangerous things from harming civilians.
Therefore, if unofficial forces want to train messengers, they must use flying birds that exist in every city, and they must be birds that are not very threatening and will not attract the attention of the soldiers guarding the city.
There are many such birds, but their IQ is really worrying and it is impossible to train them to be messengers.
Even if Ajid was powerful enough to train this mindless bird to understand everything and remember every route, it would be unlikely for them to use this bird.
After all, this world is full of monsters. If a bird at the bottom of the food chain is used as a messenger, it is very likely to be eaten by the monsters before it can deliver the information.
In short, ordinary birds have low IQs, are difficult to tame, and are very dangerous in this world. They may become food for monsters at any time, so they cannot be messengers for delivering intelligence.
Although the Magic Birds are safe, intelligent, and can be tamed, unless they are special messengers trained by the kingdom’s army, there is no possibility for other Magic Birds to approach human cities.
As long as they fly within a hundred meters of the city, they will be immediately targeted by the archers guarding the city and shot into sieves.
As for the Kingdom's special messenger...
It is true that Agito could call upon these birds and turn them from Kingdom messengers into Agito messengers, but doing so would be too unsafe.
Because according to the rules of many places, if a messenger from the kingdom flies here, no matter who it is for, it must be presented to the city lord to confirm the content in case of special conspiracy.
On the way to being delivered to the city lord, the letter will pass through the hands of several people.
If an outsider accidentally sees the above content, then Ajid's information will definitely be leaked, and then it will be troublesome.
To sum up, to be on the safe side, Ajid sent people directly to deliver letters and pass on information to each branch.
Their members are extremely loyal and much stronger than ordinary professionals, and they have methods to hide their identities, so the security of transmitting intelligence is also very high.
It's much safer than sending some messy stuff to deliver the letter.
…
Without dwelling too much on Ajid's method of delivering messages, Zhang Yun continued with his next plan, intending to use various information gaps to "bluff" and obtain Ajid's intelligence.
He said, "Akito, I know what you are thinking. It is nothing more than rescuing the real Akito from captivity, right?"
Akito remained silent: "..."
Zhang Yun explained calmly: "I know this very well, because like you, I need to liberate a great being. Lucina, this key figure, is also our pawn, so I want to take her away!"
Akito frowned, "Hmm?"
Seeing this, Zhang Yun's eyes lit up and she laughed secretly in her heart.
Ha ha!
The fish is hooked!
But his face remained calm, as if he was a hidden master, and his words were full of indifference: "Batea has already told me your plan. As Ajid 's servant, its idea is to help Ajid out first, and let me hand Lucina over to you."
"But I disagreed because I wanted to free our master first, so I 'sent' its phantom back."
"You should have seen how I solved it, right? You should also know how powerful I am!"
"Lucina is in my hands now. She belongs to us. If you still want to snatch her away, you are declaring war on us..."
"I don't mind declaring war. After all, the existence behind us is no worse than your Ajith. The power bestowed upon us is enough to rival the Shadow. We are not afraid of your monster bodies at all."
"Think about it carefully..."
In an instant, Zhang Yun set several traps, and every sentence was full of routine.
Ajid was silent for a moment, staring at the indifferent Zhang Yun, and suddenly said: "I want to know, what is behind you?"
Zhang Yun casually mentioned an ancient battlefield BOSS: "The Lord of Pride, Yurix!"
Ajid asked in confusion: "The Lord of Pride? Ulysses? Why have we never heard of this name?"
good!
Fell into a trap!
Known information... This group of Akito and Batya have no direct means of communication.
If they had a means of direct contact, then Ajid would definitely hear from Batya about the things he had casually made up about the "Apostle of Time".
Thus, he learned that the "Lord of Pride" he was now talking about was just a fictional character.
Then, its reaction would never be like this, full of doubts, and stupidly asking me why I have never heard of this name...
Zhang Yun said casually: "I don't want to explain this matter in detail. If you want to know, go ask Batya who I defeated and see if he will tell you."
Ajid frowned: "So what do you want?"
Zhang Yun raised her hand, lifted her bangs, and asked, "I should be the one asking you this. What do you want? Now Lucina is willing to go with me, and I have the ability to take her away. She is something I worked hard to get. Do you still want to snatch her away?"
After hearing this, Ajid clenched his fists, his face suddenly filled with anger.
"asshole!"
"You are a villain who just interrupted me at the last minute!"
"Lucina has always been our goal. We have spent decades waiting for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. When we encountered her as a 'key', we could have captured her right away. But you suddenly jumped out and snatched away the fruits of our hard work. And you dare to say that you fought for it yourself?"
Yo huh?
Suicide truck?
It seems that Lucina is indeed the key that the Agito Organization uses to destroy the "door". The previous intelligence was correct. It was not a smoke bomb released by the dead Agito...
After thinking about it, Zhang Yun deliberately provoked Ajid: "What? Not convinced? If you're not convinced, come and rob it!"
Ajid's face was ferocious and he was burning with rage, but he didn't dare to take any action. Instead, he took a few steps back and secretly glanced at the bottom of the sea.
Combined with the situation when it first arrived, it was also the first to be alert to the surroundings and quickly took off and away from the ocean...
At this point, Zhang Yun confirmed another piece of information—this guy knew about the existence of Leviathan and the Raging Sea Shark, and he also knew that he relied on marine creatures to kill Batya!
After all, when they were near the port, neither Leviathan nor the raging shark appeared, only Lily was floating in the air.
If Akito hadn't seen the battle, he would have only been afraid of Lily, the girl floating in the air, instead of worrying about what was under the sea...
but.
Here comes the problem.
This guy has been hiding on the shore.
How does it know about the Ocean Followers?
Could it be that Batya had somehow transmitted the scene at that time to it?
But why doesn't it know about the Apostle of Time?
Could it be that the image is not complete?
Or is there another reason?
At this time, Zhang Yun noticed the crystal ball that Ajid had been holding in his hand, and wondered if this magic prop was causing trouble?
After all, Ajith didn't have any other props on him, and his clothes were destroyed by the monster body after the transformation, so it was clear whether he had any extra items.
When the black-robed Ajid was flying and tracking him, he was basically looking at the crystal the whole time, as if there was something very interesting on it...
Originally, Zhang Yun thought that this crystal ball was used to locate Lucina.
But if he thought about it carefully, if this crystal ball could locate Lucina's position, then Ajid only needed to look at the crystal every once in a while, and there was no need to stare at it all the time.
After all, Leviathan's direction of movement was always due east, without the slightest deviation. There was no need for Akito to confirm its position all the time. He could just follow it without thinking.
If it keeps staring at it, it means that the things on the crystal ball need to be viewed continuously and you must never look away.
So……
I think it should be this crystal...
I played the footage of my fight with Batya to Ajid...
After thinking about it, Zhang Yun continued to remain calm and said to Ajid, "Why? You don't dare to fight me? Are you afraid that the monster I summoned will swallow you in one gulp?"
Ajid retreated again and said angrily: "Asshole, don't be so arrogant, you haven't seen our Ajid's true strength yet!"
Zhang Yun laughed: "Then why don't you let me see it for myself?"
"Your kind sacrificed their own lives to summon a phantom of Batya, but they were still no match for me."
"Are you going to sacrifice an entire team of your kind and summon its clones to fight me?"
"Um?"
"Akito?"
After hearing this, cold sweat broke out on Ajid's head. He stared at Zhang Yun nervously, ready to take action at any time.
In an instant, the sea breeze blew, whistling, and the air around seemed to drop several degrees.
“…”
The tense atmosphere lasted for a moment, and Zhang Yun suddenly turned his head away.
"alright!"
"I won't keep you in suspense any more!"
"I will let you go today and tell your leader about this."
"Then you should think carefully about whether you want to cooperate with us and help us complete the plan first... After we free that adult, we will hand Lucina over to you."
After saying this, Zhang Yun stared at Ajid carefully, observing its reaction, while keeping his right hand ready, ready to summon the web-catching spider at any time.
That’s right, Zhang Yun’s statement of letting Ajid go back was purely a trick.
He didn't intend to let it leave alive...
