Chapter 702 New Town
Chapter 702 New Town
After a few hours, we reached the nearest settlement. It is the first town near the border. Seeing that we entered the town and started looking for a carriage.
Everyone split into different directions. Mostly caravans can be seen here. They are going to enter Beluz City as their next stop.
It's difficult to see an aircraft here. The border area transports are done by monster carriages, cabs, and other big four-wheelers.
If I could find an aircraft, the travel would be easy.
On the other hand, the other members of the team regrouped securely behind Vincent.
Theo asked, "What do you guys think?' They have found a small inn to sit and talk. Some things can't be discussed in front of the newcomer.
While sipping a drink. Theo looked at everyone. He still wants to implement his plan. He doesn't want this incident to change their hearts.
Everyone agreed to use the newcomer as a scapegoat.
Phill saw through his thoughts. He recalled Vincent was the 1st person he saw when he woke up. If Vincent had a bad heart, he could have killed everyone and looted everything.
But he didn't do anything. His face expressed complex emotions.
April and May, both looked at each other. They showed some hesitation. Both started to like Vincent as a team member.
Suddenly, Hank, who was staying silent, opened his mouth to say, "Can we let him join as a team member?"
Hearing that everyone turned towards Hank.
Theo almost choked himself.
"What do you say!" Theo asked in a threatening tone.
He lost his cool. He didn't expect everyone to have a change of heart. Even the leader Phill was confused.
Theo's face becomes distorted. He looked at everyone before saying, "I have arranged everything. There is no turning back. If I go back, then it would offend some dangerous people."
"They might even take their anger out on us," He said in a cold tone.
The next moment, let out a long sigh. He knows what Theo is talking about. It's impossible to go back on their words.
"Theo is right. Don't be soft-hearted. Otherwise, we will be killed later," Phill said in a solemn tone.
"If it's then, I can only pity him. It's his bad luck that he had met us," Hank said to himself.
April and May are helpless. Since they are part of the team, they can only listen to the group leader.
A few minutes later,
Everyone returned to their usual state. Seeing that Theo was satisfied.
"Let's go and find the monster carriage," Theo said.
Then the team left the inn.
Meanwhile,
The bloodline wizards have already arrived at the incident site and they started their investigation.
They could see shredded parts of the carriage. Even the blood of the horse monster caught their eyes.
A few minutes later,
They have arrived at zero conclusions. There is no sign of a deceased bloodline wizard. But they were sure that the last cut-off signal was found here.
"What's going on?"
"There was no sign of other wizards as well"
"Are they alive?" The bloodline wizards start to discuss among themselves.
One of their members died mysteriously. There is no clue whatsoever. They are afraid of their master.
Just as they wrap their heads around this.
Beep!
The leading elder receives a sudden call.
The person is none other than the fat elder. Seeing that everyone present there was terrified. The leading elder was afraid to attend the call.
Then he thought about the scolding that he was going to receive.
The next second, he attended the call.
"What happened?'
"Did you guys find anything?" the fat elder's voice reached their ears.
Hearing that leading elder gulped his saliva in fear. He then starts briefing what happened here.
A few minutes later,
In the bloodline hall, the fat elder was controlling his anger. How could a high-ranking elder die just like that? And they have no clue what to pursue either.
In a rage, he let go of his coercion. The next moment, the wooden desk was shredded into pieces. Suddenly, the commotion caused alarm outside.
But the fat elder completely ignored it.
"I don't know what you will do?"
"Search nearby human settlements to find the culprit," He gave the instructions.
On the other hand, the bloodline wizards sighed in relief. They are going to visit the nearby settlements to check. So the instructions came on time.
After discussion, the bloodline wizards decided to head there as a team.
Meanwhile,
After searching for a long time, I found the owner of a mountain cheetah. This monster is known for its speed. With this monster, I can reach other places in a short time.
The problem is the monster is capable of carrying one or two people at the same time. It's not suitable for our time.
When I was wondering, I received a call from Phill.
Seeing that my mouth curved into an arc. I don't know whether these people have changed their minds or not.
I noticed on the way here they have become less hostile but it's not going to change my decision. When their use is going to be over. Then it would be their last time.
Then I attended the call.
"Vincent, where are you?"
"We found a bird-type monster" I heard Phill's voice from the other side. Then he told me the address of the inn.
"Yes, leader. I'm coming," After saying that I ended the call.
A few minutes later,
I reached the inn's address. Then I saw a falcon-type monster standing in front of the inn. A few residents have surrounded the monster to observe.
Seeing that I walked towards the inn. I see everyone is sitting down inside. Upon seeing me, May waved her hands at me.
When I walked up to them. I sat on the empty chair. Then I looked at everyone's expression. Theo is as usual showing a cunning smile on his face.
May and April couldn't hide their worries. Especially May, she seems to be avoiding my gaze. Phill's expression was a little frosty. Finally, Hank has a blank expression on his face.
