Chapter 206 Mandatory Mission
Three days later, on the square of the Holy Shield headquarters.
Ximan, Cathy and No. 1 stood at the edge of the square, waiting for something. Next to them was a huge and flat white rock.
"This time it was really unexpected!" Ximan said helplessly.
He had not planned to explore the ruins with Carolina, but he did not expect Carolina to use her authority to make this exploration of the ruins a mandatory task.
As long as Ximan still wanted to stay in the Holy Shield, he could not refuse this task and could only go with Carolina.
Although he was very dissatisfied with Carolina's behavior, he could only endure it. After all, Carolina had a very high status in the Holy Shield and he could not afford to offend her.
"Have you been waiting for a long time?" Suddenly, Carolina came from a distance and walked to the side of the three of them.
Carolina frowned at Cathy next to Ximan: "Why did you bring her here too?"
Cathy was very mysterious and very powerful. If she acted with Ximan, it would be difficult for Carolina to guarantee that she could achieve her goal smoothly.
"Carolina, this is Cathy, my friend!" Hearing Carolina's question, Ximan quickly replied: "I think this operation may be very dangerous. In order to ensure safety, I will take Cathy with me."
While Ximan explained, he winked at Cathy.
Cathy was obviously stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Yes, I won't ask for anything."
Hearing Cathy's words, Carolina became more worried. She was not afraid of Cathy asking for things, but she was afraid that Cathy didn't want anything, because it meant that Cathy wanted something bigger.
Since Ximan and Cathy had talked to this extent, Carolina knew that there would be no result if she continued to talk, so she nodded to show that she knew, and then stopped talking.
"Since we are ready, let's go!" Carolina looked at Ximan and Cathy and said lightly.
The four Carol Mountain Eagles circled in the sky and landed on the platform in the center of the square. Carolina and Ximan took the lead in walking on the back of the Carol Mountain Eagle.
Number One and Cathy followed closely behind.
Sitting on the broad back of the Carlo Eagle, Carolina felt the surrounding scenery, her mood gradually relaxed, and a faint smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
The Carlo Eagle flew very fast, and it took only three days to reach the destination.
This is a town by the sea, with an ancient port. The location of the town is quite remote. The whole town is basically ordinary people, and the total population is probably only a few thousand people.
Most of the people in the town are fishermen who make a living by fishing, which also makes the whole town relatively poor. Most of the buildings in the town are very low and dilapidated, and the roads are full of messy garbage and human and animal feces.
In order not to attract attention, Ximan and his team got off the Carlo Eagle when they were still some distance away from the town and walked into the town.
"It stinks here!" Cathy couldn't help complaining after entering the town.
The moment she entered the town, Cathy was overwhelmed by the pungent smell. She covered her nose, frowned, and glanced around with disgust.
Although they entered the town on foot, the four of them were dressed differently from ordinary people. Coupled with their temperament, they immediately attracted the residents of the town and were recognized as big figures from outside.
In order to avoid trouble, the residents only dared to watch from a distance, and even dared not get too close to them, for fear of offending them.
"Let's just find a boat to go out to sea! The ruins are on an island in the sea." Carolina looked around and suggested.
"Yeah." Ximan nodded and agreed to this plan.
"Number One, go ask who has the biggest and best boat in the town. We need a boat to go out to sea." Then Ximan looked at Number One and explained.
Number One nodded and turned to ask the residents.
A few minutes later, No. 1 returned and reported to Ximan: "The mayor's family has the best boat."
"Let's go, let's go to the town!" Ximan waved his hand.
Led by No. 1, several people came to the mayor's house.
The mayor's house was not a luxurious house, but an ordinary wooden structure. The walls of the yard were covered with vines, and the door frames and windows of the house were also covered with green moss.
Seeing them, the mayor hurriedly bowed and greeted them respectfully: "Hello, adults, what do you want to do here?"
Ximan waved his hand and said, "We need a boat to take us out to sea, and we will pay a rent for it."
After listening to Ximan's words, the mayor showed a surprise on his face: "Of course, my family's boat is the largest and best, and it should be able to meet the needs of adults."
"Very good, we will go to sea now!" Ximan said.
"The ship is at the port, please wait a moment, I will ask my son to drive the boat for the adults." The mayor nodded excitedly, said hurriedly, and then ran into the house quickly.
After a while, the mayor came out with two men. They were dressed simply, had dark skin, and looked simple and honest.
Seeing this, Ximan nodded with satisfaction and said, "Let's go to the port!"
Then, they came to the port. The port was not large, with a small number of ships docked, most of which were small fishing boats.
"Sir, this is our fishing boat!" The mayor pointed to a medium-sized fishing boat and said.
The fishing boat was about five meters long, with a black hull. Although it was a bit old, it looked quite sturdy.
"Okay!" Ximan nodded and winked at No. 1, who walked to the fishing boat and checked it carefully.
"The hull structure is relatively stable, and the facilities on the deck are also complete. There should be no problem."
"Well, it's okay, so I'll choose it!" Ximan took out a handful of gold coins and stuffed them into the mayor's hands.
"Thank you, thank you, sirs!" Looking at the golden coins, the mayor trembled with excitement.
"Let's go!" Ximan ignored the mayor's words and walked straight to the cabin.
The mayor hurriedly asked his son to drive the fishing boat to set sail.
After a simple operation, the fishing boat started moving and headed towards the depths of the sea.
"Sir, where are we going?" asked the man driving the boat.
Carolina threw the map to him and said coldly: "Follow this direction and find the island as soon as possible!"
After reading the map in his hand, the man nodded and agreed: "Okay, sir!"
As soon as the voice fell, the man immediately started driving the fishing boat towards the target.
