Cthulhu Gonfalon Chapter 63:
Mobile reading
The speed of the public carriage is not fast, even if it is a safe journey, it took a long time to go from Void City to Pyroxenite City.
During this period, North Wind went deep and simple, and hardly had any conversation with other passengers. She also took a two-day break in Longhou Town and Gold Rush Town for two days, on the one hand to show what a weak female artist should look like, on the other hand, to stagger the shifts with the travelers who walked with her all the way. , To reduce the possibility of the same way.
But she would never have thought that there would be a companion on top of her head who had always followed her, but she had never found it.
When the public carriage stopped at Pyroxen City Station, Beifeng deliberately waited for a while before leaving the carriage almost at the end of the passengers. After getting off the carriage, she looked a little tired, took a short rest, and asked the pedestrians on the side of the road about the residence of the sculptor Mr. Wood.
Wood is already a celebrity in Pyroxene, even ordinary passers-by know him. However, the pedestrian didn’t know where he lived, but the enthusiast did not intend to let Beifeng ask for directions. He took her to the guards patrolling the city and asked the guards about Wood’s address.
When the enthusiasts took him to find the guards, Bei Feng’s heartbeat was obviously faster. Although her face seemed very calm, in Sui Xiong’s eyes, the meaning of nervousness and fear was obvious.
(Hey, this woman is still worse than Wood!)
Sui Xiong smiled secretly in his heart, watching Beifeng negotiate with the guards, and confessing that he was Mr. Wood’s long-lost wife, and then accompanied by the guards whose eyes were widened in surprise, he came to Wood’s woodcarver. Fang.
Of course Wood did not know North Wind, but she only said “I heard about you in Cape Town” and he understood the identity of the other party.
Where is Cape Town? It’s the town where the Grey Dove Magic Item Store is located.
Besides federal spies, who else would mention it specifically?
So he immediately showed a look of surprise and joy, confessing the identity of the north wind to the guard, and insisted on giving the guard a small gift to show his gratitude.
In fact, at that moment, their expressions were a bit mismatched. The guard is a retired adventurer, with his eyesight, it is impossible to see the name. But Sui Xiong disturbed his thoughts secretly, so that he didn’t notice it.
It would be boring if it were directly exposed by the guards!
Holding this idea, Sui Xiong watched the two enter the workshop and sat down face to face.
“Are you here to replace me?” Wood said happily, “I can finally go home?”
“Going home” is the jargon of the spy, which means handing over tasks and returning to the country.
Of course, for spies who are loyal to the Secret Tower Federation, there is indeed no difference between returning home and going home.
Most of them are orphans, and the Federation is their home.
Looking at Wood’s joyful expression, Bei Feng was secretly suspicious–this guy’s reaction seemed a bit wrong.
It is said that if Wood has been rebellious, or has the meaning of rebellion, seeing her appear, he should be surprised or angry.
Over the years, although he has not done well in his work, the hidden tasks have been completed very well. Under such circumstances, letting him return to China is tantamount to wasting all these years of lurking, so how can he not be angry?
She didn’t know that Wood had been in distress all this time and wanted to return to the Federation.
As a senior spy, he is quite clear about the Secret Tower Federation policy. He knew that most of his own intelligence was not enough to change the established thinking of the federal high-levels. There was a 70-80% possibility that the Federation would still join an alliance that was unfavorable to the Northwest Republic and participate in the attack.
This makes him worried.
He can guarantee that this attack will not have any effect-it may be able to break the peace myth of the Void City, may be able to kill a group of civilians, nothing more, nothing more.
In that case, besides damaging some of the Northwestern Republic’s face, is there any other effect?
Obviously not.
But even such trivial battle results need to waste the lives of high-level and even legendary realm powerhouses before they can be achieved.
As a ranger who hasn’t stepped into the upper ranks yet, Wood really feels that it is a pity.
So he really hopes to return to the Secret Tower Federation to introduce his ideas to his superiors, tell him what he has seen and heard over the years, and emphasize the choice between “war” and “harmony”. Talk about a little life experience.
Not only that, returning to the Secret Tower Federation can also free him from the embarrassment in his heart and return to his normal pace.
For the most recent period, Wood has been in a tangled heart. He is worried that he will be discovered, but also hopes that his most important piece of information will be useful-none of this is important. The important thing is that he is loyal to the Secret Tower Federation and has a good impression of Pyroxene City. Dilemma.
His loyalty to the Federation is unquestionable. It is truly as solid as a rock and indestructible, but over the years, the bits and pieces of Pyroxene City, and the goodwill of the people, are like spring weather and rain, and the strands nourish his heart.
No matter how strong a stone is, water drops through it.
Although Wood does not want to admit ~IndoMTL.com~, in his mind, there is actually no wave of wavering.
Especially after he sent out the last piece of information, he was supposed to be dead, but unexpectedly, nothing happened, and he still lived in peace and stability, which confuses him, right. My own consistent guidelines have produced a little suspicion.
It is Wood’s life rule to treat kindness with kindness and maliciousness with malice.
However, Pyroxene Town treats him only with good intentions, without any malicious intent.
It is his principle to be loyal to the Federation, and he is also in a dilemma when principles and guidelines conflict.
His original intention was to use death to escape, but since he didn’t die, his thoughts became more active during this time, and he thought of many things he hadn’t thought of in the past.
Is really not exposed?
Or…Although it has been exposed, the Pyroxene City and the Northwestern Republic are not malicious towards themselves?
He didn’t know, he didn’t want to know, and he didn’t dare to know.
He was afraid that if he knew the truth, he would be unable to hold on to his principles.
So when he saw the north wind coming and guessing that the other party was coming to replace him, he was really happy.
Sure enough, his superiors are foresight and think for themselves everywhere. Knowing that his current situation is a bit embarrassing, he sent someone to replace him!
This idea is obviously too naive, but Wood can only think so now.
As for some other thoughts, he just nodded a little before being forcibly suppressed by him.
Those things should never be thought of!
But the little ripples in his heart can’t hide from Sui Xiong floating above them,
Sui Xiong smiled, watching the development quietly.
Intuition tells him that it seems that this incident is not only very interesting, but it may also be a bit special…
