The Fate of the Gunman

"Okay, this is for you, don't snatch Olga~"

Ling, who was holding the golden apple in both hands, took a bite after everyone's gaze after showing a happy smile.

"Crack~"

In the crisp sound, Lancer couldn't help but sigh that the other party’s mouth was so good, but remembered that even the "artifact" such as Frostmourne had become the other party’s snack, it seemed that there was nothing strange about a golden apple being eaten. .

"Olga, what's wrong with you...?"

Lancer is still very aware of the'zero' obsession. If he sees something he wants to eat and keeps ignoring her, the other person will always look at him with pitiful eyes. Although it is not lethal, it seems to bully a small animal. The feeling is a dull conscience.

So Lancer took the initiative to help the other party out of the siege, anyway, the last golden apple was also given to her.

Lancer, who thought he had helped Olga Marie, didn't ask the other party to praise him, but when he saw the other party looking at him with his arms folded, he couldn't figure out what was going on.

It doesn’t matter if you have something to eat. Naturally, it ignores the host’s gloomy expression, while Atalante has an expression of'it really is so'. In fact, first she saw the golden apple by Olga Marie. Shi already had this hunch, and now when he sees Zero, he can't help but sigh.

As for Onyxia, who did not have a golden apple, stood aside with a smile on her face.

'It was really interesting.'

That’s right, compared to the people present, some are self-deception, some are pretending to be stupid and stunned, and some are simply that their heads are too straight, and even they are clear. As a bystander, Onyxia can tell the situation very clearly. .

It stands to reason that she only needs to remind Lancer at this time, then this strangely stagnant situation must be able to move forward, but ———————— What does this have to do with her?

Although after being defeated by Lancer, she was just a maid and didn't do anything excessive, but she didn't shake M and didn't have Stockholm syndrome. Why did she speak?

Onyxia, with her hands on her lower abdomen, did her own things silently as before, trying to reduce her sense of existence.

Although the time of acquaintance is not long compared to the life of a dragon, Lancer's character is easy to see through. She believes that as long as she works hard to complete her work, she will be free one day sooner or later, as before - ————

Onyxia, whose eyes flickered, silently counted the number of people present.

Perhaps it was because she was too idle that she had to study a method of'making fun in hardship', such as studying how many shares her nominal master would be divided into in the end?

As far as she knows, it is at least in double digits. I wonder if she will have a chance to get a part by then?

Of course, she was definitely not because of the same reasons as those women, she just wanted to'collect' it, after all, it won't be long for a guy like the other party to cause trouble.

But before that, let her witness all this~

While sighing silently, she took out a square towel to help Xiao wipe the crumbs from the corners of her mouth gently, and then stood aside again.

But it happened that Lancer saw this scene at this time, and he nodded slightly to her and then continued to'comfort' Olga Marie. On this, Onyxia also bowed and continued to stand in the corner. .

She was curious how Lancer would look if he knew his thoughts?

Although she is now serving as a maid, she still can't help but want to sigh - - - -'It's so pleasant~'

Chapter 32—The Centaur Trail

Lancer didn't know how his newly acquired mount (in name) thought of him, after all, in his opinion, the other party had performed perfectly after getting acquainted with it afterwards, except for the cowering and shrinking performance at the beginning.

As a black dragon who has lived for many years, Onyxia is very clear about the various rules, but the only difference is that this is used to ask others before, and now it is used to ask for myself, and has enough knowledge. And the performance of the opponent after converting it into action is still remarkable, at least Lancer is quite satisfied.

But Olga Marie's inexplicable anger made him very helpless, and in the end he promised to help the other party find clues to the magic of God before the other party let him go.

But even so, he still doesn't understand why he obviously gave the other party golden apples and the other party is still upset.

Although there were some twists and turns, the team reunited anyway, and everyone's next plan was to help Atalante figure out what was going on with Artemis' trial.

This time, there was no need to hide his identity, so Lancer simply went directly to the tavern to collect information.

Collecting intelligence in such a place can be said to be completely based on character. There is no doubt that if Lancer wants to find information such as "treasure", 80% will go back empty-handed, but if he wants to find "trouble" then efficiency is Yes, for example, he heard a strange rumor recently.

Some people who went hunting saw a strange centaur in the woodland near the city.

Most people don’t believe this. After all, centaurs rarely act alone, and although the strength of a centaur is good, it is generally stronger than a normal person. Even an ordinary centaur can use bow and arrow and throw A spear can easily kill a soldier, but because of the limited population, most of them do robbing jobs, and a few will attack small villages, but there are no villages nearby. As for the transportation route, there are nearby cities. The guards patrol, and ordinary centaur will detour away from the bottom of their hearts when they meet the formed human soldiers.

And the most important reason is that I haven't heard the news of the caravan being attacked recently, and the group of barbarians don't know what waiting is called.

The result of various reasons was that the City Guard was nervous for a while when the witness report came, but after nothing was found, it simply stopped taking care of it.

If it were usually Lancer would not care about this news, but other than that, he could not find a useful clue. He didn't want to waste it and decided to pursue it.

Generally speaking, it is very troublesome to conduct investigations in a place unfamiliar with one's life. But thanks to the previous hunting of Caludon wild boars, his reputation also spread to this city along with the fleet, so when he After reporting to the door, the city guards also generously sent the information they collected to Lancer. After all, this information does not need to be concealed. Asking them for help as Lancer is naturally impossible to refuse.

Besides, although there is no problem after their investigation, it doesn’t matter if someone is willing to help them voluntarily. After all, even if the problem is really found, they will not be punished. After all, “the other party is the hero who hunted the Kalydong wild boar.” They may even be praised for it.

They are naturally willing to do things that are very profitable.

Because of the times, the "map" is a very rare thing, and sometimes a war can be changed by a small map. For example, in the battle of Wenquan Pass, if the Spartans knew the trail behind them in advance They may not be defeated so quickly.

And there is no doubt that Lancer, who can become a raven, can easily draw a map of the city, and when he threw the map on the table and marked all the locations based on the'witness testimony', Lancer was more convinced'half' Centaur did appear around the city, because at least half of the sighting reports were in an area.

Even if one person is dazzled, won't others be dazzled?

Lancer immediately decided to investigate. It didn't matter if he couldn't find it. After all, he wouldn't be in trouble at once, right?

——————

The area that Lancer locked was a forest area to the northwest of the city. The sighting reports were mainly hunters, passing merchants and their guards.

And this time Atalante also traveled with Lancer. After all, although Lancer did see a centaur when he was in Arcadia and Caludon, it’s not as professional as Atalante when it comes to tracking him. hunter.

As for the three cats, although they are also good at tracking, it is a pity that they do not have any intelligence for the Centaur to force them to ask them to be counterproductive.

But when the two left, the atmosphere on the scene was a bit strange. Although Olga Marie didn't say anything, she forced zero into his arms, while Onyxia had a strange smile. Looking at him, I don’t know why the other party’s smile is so brilliant, bright and even a little dazzling. Could it be that the other person is in a good mood today?

But when the two reached the woodland, the situation was a little more complicated.

"There have indeed been centaur activities here in recent days."

Pulling away the weeds, Atalante found a clear hoof print on a softer ground.

"In other words, a centaur did appear near here?"

"But, but... something is wrong."

"what happened?"

"There is only one centaur, which is very strange no matter how you look at it."

Although centaurs are savage, intelligent creatures, they are not without their brains. Although they are stronger than ordinary people, they are also limited. Therefore, in order to survive better, they usually move in groups. For example, the centaur that was expelled by the ethnic group, but generally speaking, this kind of centaur generally does not live long, and in order to prevent human retaliation, the centaur will not approach the gathering place of humans.

I have to say that fortunately, there is Atalanta, otherwise, even if Lancer found a clue, he might not know the specific situation.

But when the two were discussing around their footprints, Atalante suddenly squinted his eyes. Although the words on his mouth were the same as before, both the tone and speed of the speech remained the same, but the eyes gradually became sharp. , And Lancer silently stretched his right hand behind him.
