Chapter 873 returns
in February.
Winter walking on the ground is drawing to a close.
And this time happened to be when Ronald returned to Waterfall City again.
However, unlike the expedition team that left, a new member was added to their return—Nicole.
Because he was separated from his companions early while operating underground.
This young investigator did not return to Burrenwich with the other investigators, but stayed with Ronald to help deal with the remaining incidents on the Arctic continent.
It wasn't until everything was over that they began their journey back to the civilized world.
So there is no urgent situation to urge.
They had gone through the final journey, and now on their way back to Waterfall City, they finally saw people around them.
Behind the expedition.
It is the North Pole that has long since disappeared from sight.
If we want to make a summary, then this is definitely a successful experience, both for the members of the expedition team and for Ronald and several other spellcasters.
On the expedition team's side, with the protection of artifacts like the Juehai Lantern, they naturally reached the top of the world smoothly.
Ronald and Nicole, after dealing with the last few predatory individuals separated by Baichuan, also confirmed that this dust behemoth was completely trapped in the seal, and there was no sign of waking up.
"Costat, are we almost arriving at Waterfall City?"
"When I saw the crowds before, didn't I say we would be there soon!"
A group of people returned to the civilized world from the cold permafrost in the north, stepping on a road that had already thawed. While walking beside the sign of the river, Nicole heard the sound of the river converging ahead.
Nicole, who had already heard about the reputation of Waterfall City, became energetic.
But the person she was asking at the moment was not Ronald.
Instead, it was Costate who had been staying in the team and seemed a bit taciturn.
The investigator girl seemed to be very interested in Ronald's maid. During the half month along the way, she liked to hang around Costat and communicate with him in all aspects.
According to Nicole's own words.
She liked Costat's taciturn but extremely responsible character very much, so she really wanted to make friends with this maid.
Regarding this situation...
Ronald was very happy to see it.
Not to mention the improvement of the relationship between Nicole and Costat through such exchanges, considering that the maid is now establishing her personality, this unique social response is a good thing.
It just took more than half a month.
Although Costat became more and more proficient in the way of contacting Nicole, Ronald always felt that his maid seemed a little strange and would make some very special actions when nothing happened.
For example, last night before going to bed.
He even saw that Costart, who had just finished chatting with Nicole, returned to the tent and did not help him sleep immediately. Instead, he propped up his chin and looked up at the stars, as if he was pondering something very profound.
"Miss Nicole, we should be about an hour away from Waterfall City." "
According to the previous plan, the expedition team will return the big horned deer to the breeding ground, and at the same time pay the hiring fee with the guide. On our side, we need to communicate at the hotel and contact the local newspaper to tell the public that humans have successfully reached the North Pole." "Is
that so..." Nicole nodded slightly.
"I'm sorry that I have to trouble you to help with these things." Costat briefly introduced the expedition team's next plan to Nicole, and almost as soon as the maid finished speaking, Giovanni, who was walking in front of the team, also He said, "It's just my words. I have to go to the government department to file a report. I really can't get away in a short time."
The information revealed in the conversation between several people actually belongs to the leader of the expedition team, Giovanni. arrange.
After a month of getting along with each other, the explorer already had considerable trust in Ronald.
He was even willing to leave the task of contacting the newspaper to Ronald.
…
Costat’s judgment of the distance was very accurate.
An hour later, Entrod's government center came into view, and at the same time, the endless waterfall line also appeared in front of everyone.
"Wow——!"
"This waterfall is too big!"
The other people in the team set out from Waterfall City. They were naturally untouched by this scene that they had seen countless times.
It's just that Nicole is the only one in the team who is a little different.
This girl, who has been practicing mysterious magic with her teacher since she was a child, has traveled to many places in the world, but when she was growing up, Entrod was still in a state of war.
Naturally, Nicole's teacher would not be able to bring her to a place like this to increase her knowledge.
So when I saw the waterfall in front of me, it was like a natural wonder.
Nicole couldn't suppress her excitement immediately and rushed out of the team at a trot to the front, wanting to get a better perspective and appreciate the stunning natural landscape in front of her.
Seeing how excited Nicole was, other people in the expedition team just smiled in return.
During the journey back, everyone understood the character of this young girl, so they were quite tolerant of Nicole's behavior of leaving the team alone.
"..."
Another few minutes passed.
By the time the team caught up with Nicole, who was running in front, the investigator girl had already chosen a very good location and was sitting on a rock, quietly looking at the waterfall in front of her.
"Are you here?"
When she noticed that her companions from the rear expedition team were approaching, Nicole immediately stood up from the rock and patted the dust on her clothes.
"Seriously, this place looks really shocking."
"In today's world, there is absolutely no other place where you can see such a magnificent and magnificent scene!"
Ronald also nodded:
"No. That's right, didn't you ask me about the situation in Waterfall City underground before?" "
As you can see now, this city was built in a very cold zone, so it also caused local residents... eh?"
Rona De was about to introduce the city to Nicole in a normal tone.
As a result, looking at the scene below, there was only the beginning of the narration, and it got stuck in my throat.
Because it only lasts a month.
The city built around the lake below the waterfall already looked completely different from when he left.
In the southeast of the entire waterfall city, an entire city area turned into ruins.
There is no sign of human activity at all.
It's as if... there has just been a war here!
"Entrod, it is indeed a political power established in the midst of war!"
Just when Ronald was speechless, Nicole, who was in the group, failed to understand this change.
The investigator girl just stood there, nodding her head, and commented on the city below in a very approving tone:
"In my impression, ordinary citizens living in a place like this cannot manage it at all. The managers of Entrod, indeed There are two brushes!"
