Chapter 124 Waiting
"Then why did you save her?"
Iris Clark was very confused about this.
She couldn't understand Link Grande's brain circuit.
Since you already have suspicions, why should you waste all your energy to save a suspicious person?
"To confirm some speculations."
Link mentioned it casually, but did not elaborate further.
Ever since he learned about the existence of the "Sail Alliance" and that a considerable number of the new blood of the Storm Sea in the Southern District were eager to please the local apprentices in the Northern District,
he knew that even among the top 30, not everyone would be self-reliant.
Not to say absolutely, Link is at least 80% sure that he can find someone among the other 28 people who is willing to conspire with the local apprentices in the North District, or even be willing to be a traitor.
Andrea Norman's act of eating the fruit rashly seemed very smart.
If a person who can get into the top 30 has an online IQ, how can he do such a thing?
There's obviously another reason.
This gave Link a vague feeling that she wanted to be eliminated on purpose.
The change in Andrea Norman's expression after she woke up and the abnormal tone of her voice confirmed Link's guess one by one.
There is indeed something wrong with her.
In this case, don't blame Link for being cruel and evil, using a person who seems to have some conscience to set up a trap.
The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered, with a huge disparity in strength.
If he didn't use some underhanded tricks, Link didn't think his side would have much chance of winning.
Moreover, the other party is already murderous. In a life-and-death fight, how can one be soft-hearted?
After walking for a while in silence, he made sure that his figure was completely out of the reconnaissance range of Dalton Colen and the other four.
Link sprang into action.
"Follow up."
He said hello, quickly entered a mountain col selected in advance through a circular flying saucer, and ducked into a cave to hide his whereabouts.
Four reconnaissance puppets were deployed around the col to provide warning.
The circular flying saucer and Iris Clark's bionic eagle were sent out.
One monitors the movements of the four Dalton Columns, and the other patrols the surrounding area to see if there is anything unusual or strangers approaching.
On the way, Iris Clark originally wanted to urge Link Grande to talk about some speculation he wanted to confirm.
After Link Grand suddenly switched routes and hid his whereabouts, Iris Clark immediately realized what he wanted to prove.
He kept silent and was very cooperative throughout the process, doing whatever he was told.
Her eyes and the expression on her face revealed strong surprise and expectation.
It turns out this is the one we were playing!
"Interesting!"
"It's so interesting!"
"I like it!"
"Hehehe..."
In the cave, Iris Clark was distracted.
While tinkering around in his small bag, looking for "toys" that might come in handy in the future, he looked at the four Dalton Colen on the smart brain screen and laughed like a maniac.
She also deliberately split the screen into two, with one half showing the whereabouts of the four people, and the other half zooming in to focus on Andrea Norman's every move.
Link was also staring at the monitor, making preparations, and was silent.
Wait quietly.
...
Not only Link Grande and Iris Clark are waiting.
Many people are waiting.
...
Jasmine Kidman is waiting.
She didn't know whether her luck was good or bad.
It's hard to say, but she was randomly transported to a very safe place, with the small bag containing the watch and task list at her feet.
After learning about the main mission and side mission, and just putting on the watch,
Link immediately sent a reminder and a request to bind the watch to each other.
This made Jasmine very happy.
This means that Link Grande still cares about himself.
After answering the true situation and giving her positioning, Jasmine felt much more at ease.
Even though in the past two months, Jasmine had gradually begun to try to be independent and firm in her own opinions,
she was thrown into this strange world alone, and she still instinctively wanted to find someone to rely on.
She knows this habit is bad and wants to change it, but she hasn't been able to change it yet (liao).
I can only work harder in the future.
Jasmine stuck out her sweet tongue, feeling a little ashamed of her self-deceptive idea.
As luck would have it, she was trapped on the sandbank in the middle of the river as soon as she landed.
The river is flowing with great force.
The river is vast, about two thousand meters wide, and it is vast.
There is only a piece of "reed" growing on the sandbank, not even a bush, let alone a tall and straight tree.
Want to cut down trees, build ships, and cross rivers?
There is no such objective condition!
swim?
Wading across a river?
There are giant beasts on land, but are there no wild beasts in the water?
Jasmine tried it at first.
As soon as he got out of the water, before he could swim 30 meters, he was chased by a group of crocodile-like but several times larger aquatic beasts that smelled human scent, and forced him back to the sandbank.
With the dividends from Silver Star Flower hybrid breeding, Hemerocallis lily series, and the 100 million points reissue reward from Wizard Seren, Jasmine Kidman also updated her equipment.
Following Link's example, Jasmine put on the "Defender 3202" suit, purchased two reconnaissance puppets, and carried a certain number of various types of self-destructing mines.
It can be said that he is armed to the teeth.
However, Jasmine still had no way to deal with the beasts in the water and the river.
The beasts in the water have sharp teeth, flexible and powerful tails, rough skin and thick flesh, which can both resist and attack.
The "Defender 3202" suit can prevent the bites, attacks and tail whips of predators in the water, but Jasmine's body cannot continue to withstand the impact and pressure.
What?
You said that Iron Man's mortal body is comparable to that of a god.
Wearing the armor, you can't fall to death no matter how hard you fall?
Can this be compared?
A set of armor costs more than ten to two billion dollars.
Calculating the purchasing power of the world currencies on both sides, one set of armor can buy several thousand sets of "Defender 3202" suits, or a set of 3-ring witchcraft!
Jasmine not only encountered problems in defense, she was also blind in attack.
Unless she uses up all her reserves of self-detonating fire mines, Jasmine will never be able to break through the defense of the beast in the water!
After returning from the water to the sandbank, Jasmine did not give up.
She estimated that the distance from the sandbank to the river bank was about a thousand meters.
With the cloak and boots of the "Defender 3202" suit, she could glide in a short time. If she stayed close to the river, she might be able to reach it successfully.
But those ferocious beasts in the water couldn't just watch Jasmine escape, they would definitely jump up to intercept her.
If the altitude is increased, the endurance will be affected and it will be impossible to cross the river.
At most, it will fall into the water halfway through the flight.
By then, you will still have to face the siege of beasts in the water.
Might as well get into the water right from the start.
At least the ability to escape the battlefield will not be lost.
The boots of the "Defender 3202" set are really a weak point when it comes to flying!
You can't hit it head-on, and you can't avoid it.
After considering everything, Jasmine was at a loss and decided to wait.
Wait for a variable.
Or wait for Link to arrive.
She created a safe zone among the tall "reeds", took precautions and guarded against it, and hid in it.
There are many people who enter this world, and most of them are local apprentices in the North District. They are opponents and enemies.
Protecting yourself is most important.
Concealing your whereabouts is the top priority.
Jasmine didn't want to wait for Variable or Link, but instead waited for local apprentices from the North District, even members of "Pure Blood Will".
That would be nonsense!
Moreover, idleness is also idleness.
Just dig an underground tunnel like that annoying guy Link Grande mentioned when he made fun of the secondary mud and stone magic.
well!
Jasmine sighed deeply.
Thinking about that guy makes me upset.
...
Tracy Lucia is waiting.
As the biological sister of Hawke Lucia, the cousin of Sophie Lucia, and the clan niece of Sauron Lucia, Trish Lucia was happily preparing to perform well in the competition between the two districts. , and strive to use good grades and high rankings to gain greater support from the family.
However, he was very helpless and received the task of leading the team to intercept and kill Link Grande.
This will undoubtedly greatly affect her performance and results in the two-district competition.
Trish Lucia, who was already at odds with Sophie Lucia, began to hate her more and more, and her hatred even turned into hatred.
Why should I wipe your ass for the trouble you caused?
Tracy Lucia's heart was full of resentment towards Sophie Lucia.
She wanted to give up the task or just do it half-heartedly.
However, this matter was explained by Sauron Lucia. Under pressure, Tracy Lucia had to do her best.
This feeling is very uncomfortable and tormenting.
When her emotions came to a head, Tracy Lucia hated Sophie Lucia to death.
Fortunately, not long after entering this world, Trish Lucia received a report from a three-person team, saying that they had discovered Link Grande's whereabouts and were trying to kill him.
It is a pity that the special micro-intelligent brain that comes with it, due to the various restrictions of the academy, can only communicate via text and locate short-distance and short-time positions. It cannot use voice, video, or automatically generate coordinates.
There was no better way. Tracey Lucia could only use the watch issued by the academy to locate each other with the three three-person groups,
so as to roughly guess the location of Link Grande, which should be quite far away from her. .
Further away were the other two groups of three.
It was difficult to rush over to support at the moment.
This meant that before Trish Lucia and the other two teams arrived,
the three-person team, not to mention directly killing Link Grande,
at least had to pester him and continue to track him.
Tracy Lucia was waiting while rushing on her way.
Waiting for the next report from the three-person team.
Waiting for the good news from the three-person team.
Waiting for this disgusting mission to be over.
...
Lanie Taylor is waiting.
Among the first-year members of the "New Blood Mutual Aid Association", there were 10 people in the top 30, including her.
Only one Isco Alex can catch her eye.
She really looked down on other people.
But in the two months since Lanie Taylor joined the "New Blood Mutual Aid Association", she has never shown any related emotions and has always treated everyone equally.
With the support of Wizard Ella, he is also a top genius with
good grades and a good figure.
Although his face is covered by a veil, his eyes as clear as autumn water are attractive enough to make people fall in love with him at a glance. I think this must be a stunning beauty.
Most of the first-year members of the "New Blood Mutual Aid Association", especially the male members, were impressed by Lanie Taylor's personality and beauty.
Including Isco Alex.
Even many second-year and third-year members are slowly moving closer to Lanny Taylor.
This laid a good foundation for Lanie Taylor to compete for the position of president.
As long as she can perform well in this two-district competition and this bet between Wizard Paro and Wizard Peter Lionel, there will be no obstacles for Lanie Taylor to take over.
The competition between the two districts has not officially started yet. Before entering this world, Lanny Taylor had a vague plan in mind.
After entering this world and discovering the watch and the to-do list, Lanie Taylor strengthened her idea.
There is a huge disparity in strength between the enemy and ourselves.
If you want to win this big competition, win this bet, and have a head-on confrontation, that's definitely not possible.
You have to avoid the "pure-blooded will" and start with the main mission, in order to complete the mission and compete for the ranking in the competition.
So how do you keep the "Pure Blood Will"'s attention away from yourself so that you can quietly complete the task?
There is no other way to set a target for "Pure Blood Will" that is more appropriate and more efficient.
So, here’s the question?
Among the 12 new first-year blood members belonging to the Paro Wizard camp, which one is more suitable to be targeted than Link Grande?
No!
Even Lanny Taylor is not qualified.
So, Lanie Taylor was waiting, waiting to hear what kind of noise Link Grande would make again.
She had observed Link Grande for several months and realized deeply that Link Grande, on the surface, always pursued calmness and stability, but in fact he couldn't stand being stimulated, let alone pressured.
Once stimulated or pressed, it will easily rebound.
Without Lanie Taylor taking action, Link Grande himself would become the target that attracts the attention of "Pure Blood Will".
What she has to do is to advance the main mission while the "pure-blooded will" can't take care of her.
To do a task, one can do it alone, but it is better to have a team.
Therefore, Lanie Taylor is also waiting for Isko Alex and two other partners who can barely catch their eyes.
Waiting for your team to take shape.
...
Andrea Norman is also waiting.
Wait for an opportunity.
You shouldn't, you shouldn't, you shouldn't take advantage of that during your part-time job during the holidays.
As a result, someone took advantage of the situation and used it as a threat to make her act as an internal agent.
Andrea Norman didn't want to agree at first.
The person who came out to threaten Andrea Norman extended an invitation with great hospitality and took her to visit the Flesh Mill Arena in the West End Black Market, especially the small arena used to resolve disputes.
And showed her the actual video of Antoine Hilton being beaten to death by Rivers Francis.
After that, Andrea Norman completely gave up her intention to resist directly.
The person who threatened her already seemed very powerful.
The person in charge hiding behind must be even more terrifying.
Entering this world, facing Dalton Colen who treated her heart and soul, Andrea Norman's lingering conscience suddenly got the upper hand, and she wanted to be automatically eliminated by making mistakes.
She hypnotized herself into believing that this way, she would not have to face the dilemma.
Unexpectedly, this guy Dalton Colen actually asked his so-called boss, Link Grande, to come to the rescue.
And he also rescued her.
Since he has not been eliminated, he has no choice but to do what he should do.
"Don't blame me, Colen."
Andrea Norman glanced at Dalton Colen with complicated eyes, walking in front of her, struggling to remove weeds and thorns, and open a path to make it easier for her to walk. .
She raised her right hand, hugged the hair next to her ear, and tucked a few stray strands of hair behind her ear.
When his fingers touched the earrings, he casually pressed the alexandrite on the earrings.
The positioning signal has been sent.
Thinking about it, Link Grande couldn't go very far in such a short period of time.
If those people received the signal and rushed over immediately if they were not far away, they would definitely be in time.
Hope it comes in time.
There must be time!
