Chapter 492 493. Cooperation
“Wow, he looks so beautiful in the sun, isn’t he, Icarus?”
Kassandra whispered without looking back. Said with a smile.
Her eagle glided quietly and landed on the corner of the cage room containing the wild wolf, and also let out a low cry.
It seems to be in agreement.
But then, Cassandra turned her gaze down the hillside and landed on Icarus, her face becoming disgusted.
"Of course, don't think that you'll be fine just by trying to please me! No way! This time I almost got caught because you weren't serious!"
"Things have gotten better these days. You have also learned to enjoy slacking off, right? You only look at people from the sky, not the beasts?”
Icarus turned his head away with a guilty chirp.
"Hey! Look at me! I'm lecturing!"
Kassandra put her hands on her hips and looked angrily at the eagle sitting on the corner of the cage.
"Okay, then you don't want to eat grilled quail for the next ten days! Give me fish! Not grilled! Live fish without spices!"
So The eagle started to stand there and jump.
"Uh, are you communicating here?"
Lan came down the hillside and entered the port.
He was now watching in confusion as Cassandra scolded the eagle.
"This is still within the enemy's camp, right? Isn't it a bit unsafe to be so public?"
When he spoke, his voice was still deliberately lowered.
But after reprimanding Icarus, Cassandra turned her head and gave him a warm smile.
"Don't be nervous, Lan En. I have taken care of everyone in this area. As long as it is not too noisy and the sound can be transmitted to the other side of the pier, it will be fine."
"Are you sure?" Lan En raised his brows, crossed his arms and looked down at Cassandra, "I remember that I was the one who settled the trouble for you just now."
Then Cassandra's face froze. , turned around and took a sharp look at Icarus, who was combing his feathers by himself.
Then he turned around again, barely maintaining a smile: "Icarus has been overstuffed recently, and he is not in good condition."
In other words, when he is in good condition, he can be without any problems. Missed all the targets found throughout the camp?
Lan En secretly estimated Cassandra's ability.
This kind of detection ability is rarely efficient even among demon hunters.
And judging from Cassandra's appearance, she trusts the effect of this ability, which means that its reliability is second to none.
Powers through Icarus. The two of them have some kind of telepathy?
"Why are you here? I remember you agreed to Fulber to deal with the plague."
Kassandra leaned against the wall and looked at Lan En with her arms folded.
"If I remember correctly, you don't seem to have any conflicts with the One-Eyed Man. When you first arrived, you just killed two of his men, and no one knew about it."
In response to this question, Lan En He shook his head calmly.
"The plague is no longer a problem. There are only seven people alive in the village now, and they have all recovered. And the holiday between me and the one-eyed man, ha. Look at this."
said Then, Lann took out the papyrus from his pocket and handed it to Cassandra.
“There was a very powerful female mercenary who ambushed me on the road I passed. This was the only clue I found from her.”
"I'm a new comer from outside. As you said, I didn't even have a chance to provoke anyone. But someone hired such an expensive-looking mercenary to kill me. This made me very sad. I'm curious."
"Who can control their curiosity? I have to come." Cassandra listened to Lan En's story while reading the contents of the papyrus.
"Maraka! The one-eyed man wants to kill Marcos! The lender wants to kill the debtor. It seems that I really pissed him off. This guy doesn't even want the cost. "
"Thank you, Lan. You saved the life of that scoundrel Marcos, but have you ever thought that your former enemy came after you?"
Cassandra first thanked her in a very sincere tone. It seemed that she really cared about the 'scoundrel' in her mouth.
Then, she raised her eyes and looked at Lan En again.
“For a person like you, I don’t believe that you have never made enemies before?”
For an ordinary little girl who just met not long ago, you can fight against a local snake The bandits took action and killed people.
Oh, such a person has everything going smoothly in such a world. I guess legends would not dare to write like this.
However, Lan En's answer was beyond Cassandra's expectations.
The young man was determined and confident, and said without hesitation: "No."
"I don't have any enemies in this world."
You don't have all your enemies. Have they all been killed?
Cassandra almost blurted out these words.
But her rationality still allowed her to successfully control her mouth.
"It seems we have a common goal."
Kassandra smiled and stretched out her arm towards Lan En.
"We can go find trouble with the one-eyed man together."
The witcher raised his eyebrows, stepped forward and held Cassandra's forearm, shaking it up and down.
"Happy cooperation, Kassandra."
Icarus flew into the sky again, while Kassandra and Lann gave up their plan to sneak away.
Both of them feel that the other is not simple, so why should they be cautious now that the other has come to help?
Just be reckless and that’s it!
So a man and a woman, side by side, walked swaggering towards the pier that was still wailing and roaring.
——
Barnabas shouted in vain, bubbles rushing to his ears as he opened and closed his mouth. The dull sound he made when he begged for mercy under the water sounded very strange, as if it came from another person. world.
His hands were tied behind his back, and the rope was cut into his skin due to his struggle, and the place where he was tied was dripping with blood. Water rushed in from his mouth and nose, worming its way into his throat like a snake.
And to make matters worse, as the air flowed from his lungs and his body screamed for oxygen, the infamous one-eyed man held him in place with his wide, thick palms .
The distance between the nose and mouth from the water surface is only four to five centimeters, but in this big pot, the distance of four to five centimeters cuts off all oxygen from him.
Flashes of light and blur began to appear in front of his eyes, which was caused by delirium due to lack of oxygen, and also indicated that his physical condition was approaching the limit.
And suddenly, everything changed. The fleshy palm suddenly released his head, and the water in the jar became quiet. His tied-up gray hair and beard swayed like the tentacles of an octopus, throwing water splashes around.
He blinked, retching, panting, and looked at the giant carrying him, who also looked at him with his one eye.
"All the gods are my witnesses! I swear!"
Even before his mind was clear, Barnabas began to defend himself again under the instinct of survival.
Fight for that slim chance of survival.
