Chapter 415 Wandering Eye

Three or two sparrows were jumping on the branches on the side of the road. Before the darkness drove away the last ray of light, a few unlucky ones who had not found their place merged into the temporary camp.

Pedestrians arriving after this were turned away with caution and suspicion. No one dared to bet whether it was people or something else walking on the road after dark.

Lynch only knew that the recent visitors were all human beings. As for whether they were good or bad, it was up to the judge to decide.

The oracle and the dwarf, who were still trembling, had already started fighting again, and the campfire rising in the center of the road illuminated the restless faces.

The dark green figure of the evil moon blocked the dim white moon, and the loud roars of beasts and howls of wolves were hidden in the trees pulling ghost figures.

The humans chatted quietly, never taking their hands off the handle of their weapons.

Lynch had no doubt that they would stay up like this all night just because there was a Chaos Moon hanging in the sky.

Another coachman came from the south. The camp blocking the road sternly refused his permission, but he was approaching the hotel from the beginning.

Unexpectedly, the boss, who had locked the door tightly since dark, took one look through the crack of the door and accepted the visitor.

The coachman seemed to be a messenger, serving people in Nordland and Middenland who needed to communicate.

Except for some protests from residents, there was no disturbance.

"Today's letter!" Coachman Jackson not only handed over the letter that was supposed to be sent to the innkeeper, but some letters that were supposed to be sent to Nordland were also in the mailbox that he handed to the boss.

As for why? Little did he know that he had been entrusted with this task at the assembly a year earlier, and it continues to this day.

Those members who were more intelligent than he might have known the significance of these letters.

The owner of this inn, Odok, gave the coachman some money as a reward, and he was responsible for the rest of the work. He needed to keep the letters until dawn, when a new coachman would come to take away the letters and deliver them to the next inn.

As a newcomer, he does not know the inner workings of the organization, nor its leaders, nor who his superiors and subordinates are.

Maybe the organization he joined had something to do with big shots in the empire, and he didn't care.

Odok only opened his own letter, which listed some news that was beneficial to him. For example, a hotel further south was about to close down, and he could take the opportunity to acquire this old rival's real estate at a low price.

The letter also vaguely mentioned that Odok should pay close attention to the doctors coming and going on the road, especially those holding snake canes.

Odok also had to carefully distinguish whether the doctor had a double snake staff or a single snake staff. If it was a double-winged double snake staff, he didn't have to worry about anything, he just needed to record it.

It is noteworthy that he must have kept an eye on the travelers' packages, as the owner of the double snake staff would not reveal it.

He had heard the legend of the single-snake snake staff. Every Middenian knew that maybe someone wanted to imitate the group of miracle doctors from long ago. Odok only needed to record their characteristics.

If he saw the doctor holding the long staff with a single snake, Odok must take out the jug of wine that was sent with the letter and take a sip of the wine. Otherwise, he was not allowed to touch the jug of wine.

Probably a group of fools are preparing to restore the former doctors. Their transgression will be punished. Even fools in the north should know that a single snake with a staff is taboo.

Odok is willing to obey all the orders in the letter, and the organization he joins has great powers.

He had reason to believe that his unknown companions would be able to obtain any information circulating between Nordland and Middenland immediately.

There have been an unexpected number of letters relayed through him recently. It may be that something big is about to happen. Odok doesn't care what the members of the organization he has never met want to do. He just wants to watch his business get better and better.

The wind tonight is as arrogant as the evil moon in the sky. The manic air currents wash away the leaves, making the big trees laugh wildly since nightfall.

The hoarse trembling sound made the people in the camp become frightened birds. Just a hare escaping among the grass can make them feel like they are facing a powerful enemy.

When they have nothing to do, they will also look for things to do, and gather in groups around the campfire to talk about stories from all over the world.

No matter what, they just won't sleep peacefully.

The first person to disturb the camp was another night traveler. No matter how the guards drove him away, they could only get his pleas.

His persistence even attracted Lynch's attention. Perhaps this kind of persistence is understandable. To leave later would be the same as committing suicide for ordinary people.

Even the vigilant guards couldn't help but waver.

"Sir, I am definitely a human being. If you don't believe me, you can take off my clothes. There is absolutely no deformation on my body."

Lynch was sure that what he said was true. Since it was not convenient for the lizard man to show up, he gently patted the Oracle.

There was a flattering smile on Eugen's shiny face under the firelight. Lynch discovered that this guy had gained more than a pound in recent days.

Needless to say, the prophet dragged his dwarf companion, who was used for self-defense, towards the entrance of the camp where the dispute was taking place.

.

After pretending to cough, Eugen successfully attracted the guard's attention.

As recent defenders know, Eugen is a seer of destiny, and his predictions are never wrong.

Apparently, the Oracle was very good at equivocation. No one dared challenge him in this regard. As long as he didn't make it clear, he was always right.

"What happened here?" The dwarf put on a ferocious look. It was for the "commission" that Eugen paid him. Unfortunately, Sorian didn't have any good way to make money. He was better at selling force than cheating and kidnapping. The two hit it off. .

The leader of the sentry guard glanced at the dwarf fearfully, and then at Eugen to confirm who was talking.

He smiled flatteringly at Eugen:

"Nothing, sir, there is an unknown guy here who wants to come in. Sigma knows this is impossible."

Eugen at this time became a servant of Sigmar again.

"In the name of Sigmar, I can confirm this poor man's identity. He is a human."

"Sir, you may not know how bad some people with other thoughts can be. Even if he is a human being, you cannot avoid the suspicion that he may have committed a crime."

"Moorslieb is hanging on there, man, I know what you're worried about, but it's a little irresponsible to say something like that without checking it."

Seeing someone defending himself, the thin passerby nodded and bowed in agreement.

He didn't know what he thought of, and he suddenly hesitated for a moment. The Oracle was keenly aware of this hesitation.

Maybe this guy really can't stand the investigation, and the lizard people should know that the quality of a human can not only be judged by whether he has an affair with a demon.

Maybe he has nothing to do with the devil, but he's probably a criminal.
