102 ★ Chapter 102

◎ Like a son, like a mother...? ◎

—102—

This news is obviously extremely explosive.

The person who brought the news back also had a look of panic on his face.

For the oasis, and for all the people living in the oasis, the existence of Orlando is like the shining sun in the sky. As long as you raise your eyes, you can still see the opponent's back standing in front of him as if it will never change, as if it can give birth to endless courage and strength.

No one has ever thought that the leader who is supposed to last forever like the sun in the sky, radiates light and heat for a long time, and the oasis convinces everyone, will actually be powerless and lose news and traces one day.

How does this not make everyone feel panicked about it-and mixed with it, the loss of not knowing where the future should fall.

They scurry around like headless flies, catching any screams, wailing, and venting their emotions that can catch people.

What to do? Where will everything go next?

This is the question lingering in everyone's mind.

Carroll took a deep breath.

It is true that when he heard the news, he was as shocked as anyone who heard it for the first time, and he couldn't fake it at all; but soon, Carroll calmed down, and immediately understood that he should now do what.

Now that Orlando has temporarily lost contact, he is now the only "brain" and "pin" of Oasis. Anyone can show panic, anyone can feel panic and fear because of Orlando's loss of contact, but he can't.

Therefore, in the eyes of everyone else, even after hearing such news, the smile on Carroll's face and even the curvature of the corner of his mouth did not change a bit.

"I see." Said the young man who was hidden under the brilliance of Orlando, who didn't seem to be very sharp-edged, "I will make arrangements for this later. Now, continue to report to me It's something."

Perhaps it was because he was so calm that the emotions of other people around him were also infected and slowly calmed down, at least he was no longer as panic-stricken as he was at the beginning.

"Yes, I know... Then, after Orlando lost contact, on the frontline battlefield..."

The news of Orlando's loss of contact spread quickly, and it didn't take too long. Almost everyone in the entire oasis knew about it this sad news.

When Jiang Qi asked for directions and found Carol, the latter had just finished talking with the last person of the day. When he raised his eyes, he saw Jiang Qi who had rushed over and was standing at the door right now.

Carroll smiled almost subconsciously.

"You're here? What can I do for you, Anderina?"

——No one would dislike Anderina.

This is a fact that has been regarded as an irrefutable truth in the entire oasis for five years.

"I heard that there were some accidents in Orlando." Jiang Qi asked Carroll, "Is there anything I can do for you?"

Carroll let out a long breath, and then smiled helplessly: "Although I really want to behave better in front of you, I can confidently tell you that it's okay, it's not a big deal..."

His smile gradually took on some distress.

"But, I do need your help." Carroll said, "Trouble, Andrina."

In the development of these years, the oasis is not without Orlando and Carroll, other people people with great abilities. Warriors, magicians, blacksmiths, alchemists... and many other qualified people.

The number of slaves is so huge, many of them are not without qualifications, but often they have no chance to discover their qualifications, and their life has come to an end.

This has to be said to be a reckless act, but this is something that the northernmost people in the White Beach Desert take for granted. The value of a person is doomed at the moment of birth—the moment he is given a surname. This is the criterion exercised in the desert.

But despite this, there is obviously no one among them who Carroll can rest assured to entrust the matter of "finding the lost Orlando".

What's more, Orlando is already the top combat power on the oasis today. If it is a predicament that can make him overturn—or even if it is just a predicament that traps him and cannot communicate with the outside world even a little bit, it will undoubtedly be even more difficult for other people who are not as far away as Orlando. tricky business.

In this case, even if they really found Orlando, what's the point? Apart from adding an oil bottle that Orlando has to protect and scruples, it really doesn't make any sense.

But if this object is replaced by Jiang Qi, then it will be different.

Although Jiang Qi has never participated in any management and decision-making of the oasis, but just drifted away like a temporarily borrowed spectator, both Orlando and Carol knew that the girl was by no means what she appeared to be. Weak.

On the contrary, she may be the one with the most powerful power among the resident population of the oasis today.

So after thinking for a while, Carol realized that there was really no better choice than letting Jiang Qi go.

Perhaps he originally had several other second-best candidates in mind. Although they are not perfect enough, they are not completely unusable candidates, but when they are compared with Jiang Qi, it is obvious that all of them are suitable. Overshadowed.

There is no comparison here.

Jiang Qi shook her head: "It's not troublesome."

She originally needed to pay close attention to Orlando's actions, and the other party was the key to her clearing this secret realm and leaving successfully.

During the "five years" spent in the secret realm, Jiang Qi did not search for it, but she did not find any information related to the devil Alsas.

Jiang Qi even wondered if her behavior in Naples had so alarmed the snake that Alsace had tucked his tail and acted like a man after that, without leaving any flaws at all.

While thinking this way, she took a stack of papyrus from Carol. The paintings on it were made by Carroll in his busy schedule, combined with the known information and using divination magic. Rough calculations.

After numerous iterations of formula checking and calculation, Carroll finally locked on three approximate locations, and circled them with red paint on the map.

Jiang Qi stared at the three positions, and finally stayed on one of them for a long time, and showed a thoughtful expression.

"Anderina?"

She didn't intend to hide her emotions, so Carol naturally observed it very easily.

"Is there something wrong with my deduction?" he asked.

Jiang Qi raised her head: "No, it's just that there is a place that looks familiar to me, and I've been there before."

The girl tapped one of the circled areas with her fingertips.

It is located in the very center of the entire map, and it can even be regarded as the "belly button" of the White Beach Desert. If Orlando hadn't been counted by Alsace, and if he could stand beside Jiang Qi and look at this map with her now, then he would find that what Jiang Qi was pointing at was exactly what they had before the location of the Sata village visited.

Jiang Qi didn't think it was a coincidence.

But it's not that she hasn't been there before. Sata Village may not have been established yet. That area is only white gravel that is the same as everything around it, and there is nothing special about it.

Jiang Qi even dug three feet into the ground, but there was no temple, no pilgrims offering sacrifices, and no trace of the devil.

She had stopped paying attention to it at first, but what she didn't expect was that this place would appear in front of her eyes again in this form.

Now, if you still want to insist that there is nothing suspicious there, it would be really impolite.

This place was naturally listed by Jiang Qi as the first place she was going to explore.

Jiang Qi doesn't need any special preparations, especially in this secret place, having spent five full years in the desert, Jiang Qi now has a lot of questions about how to identify the direction, predict the weather, and find a suitable place to stay and rest in the desert. And so on, a series of skills have long been familiar, like a real sandman.

Therefore, after talking to Carol, Jiang Qi stepped out of the oasis.

The distance between the oasis and the "belly button" is far away. At this time, Jiang Qi will inevitably miss the convenience of Cornett's space magic.

But it doesn't matter, in this world, as long as the thinking is slippery, there are always more ways than difficulties.

She first dug out a kite-like silver-level flying equipment from her backpack, and then used the wind family magic, Squall Line Ridge, that she "recovered" from Dravis.

That was obtained from the Demon King of Storm, enough to control the power of Storm, which is naturally far beyond what ordinary Storm can match.

Sitting on the back of this huge "kite", Jiang Qi also rides the wind all the way, soaring up to 90,000 miles. Under the violent hurricane, she firmly followed a straight line between two points, and the distance between her and the target was shortened rapidly.

Compared with Jiang Qi's previous visit, this area does not seem to have changed much. It is still so ordinary and has no memory. Even if it is taken out and put elsewhere, it can be quickly integrated into it, and it is not "special" enough at all.

But as soon as Jiang Qi set foot on this land, her intuition began to show her presence crazily.

Right here, right now—the voice said with absolute certainty.

Jiang Qi jumped down from the flying kite.

During the fall, the gust of wind blew her hair and sleeves fluttering and fluttering wildly in the wind, but Jiang Qi herself didn't seem to care about it.

The girl stretched out her hand, and a star point of light gathered around it, and condensed into a folded fan held in the palm of her hand.

Then a blood-red light glowed on the folding fan. These lights are not scattered, on the contrary, they condense as if they have entities, and finally become a very special giant sword that is several feet long derived from the fan.

Holding the sword, Jiang Qi slashed down towards the vast white sand on the ground - where the light blade touched, those gravels were as fast as butter cut by a hot red knife. melted, leaving a deep gap in the end.

And through this gap, Jiang Qi once again saw the scene that she had glimpsed before.

The space intertwined with black and red seems to be the only light that exists.

She stepped into that space without hesitation.

After the girl entered, the crack began to slowly squirm and close. The wind carried sand and gravel from elsewhere again, filling up the original vacant part, and it looked as if nothing had happened here again.

***

Jiang Qi walked in this underground space.

She has been here for a while, but she has never been able to meet any creatures other than herself. Only the unchanging red and black are intertwined, forming an infinite passage that seems to continue like this.

There was no clear direction anyway, Jiang Qi simply walked towards the golden light.

But as she moved forward, the main body of the golden light became more and more clear before her eyes.

— that's a golden long gun.

The gun as a whole exudes a light that is so dazzling that it can almost shed physical tears, and under this light, it is a golden gun that seems to be more "gorgeous" and "decorative" than practical. It has an extremely complicated structure, and there are also densely packed inscriptions on the body of the gun. It is impossible to distinguish the meaning of it, but it is also enough to be unclear.

Jiang Qi's eyes moved slightly.

She thought, she should know that long gun.

Because of the records in the fragments that Jiang Qi found earlier, the reason why the Baitan Desert was formed was because the Lord of the Lieyang dropped a javelin from the sky and completely nailed the devil to the ground deep.

In other words... As long as Jiang Qi can get close to the golden long spear, it is equivalent to finding the location of the devil Alsace.

After realizing this, Jiang Qi accelerated the speed towards that side.

However, she paid too much attention to the golden javelin in the distance, and ignored the path she was walking on. At a certain moment, the ground suddenly collapsed, and Jiang Qi, who didn't react at all, stepped into the air and fell - she didn't fall to the ground after all, because someone had already caught her first.

Jiang Qi followed the bronze arm and raised her head. The person in front of her who was looking at her with disapproving eyes was obviously one of the purposes of Jiang Qi's trip.

Before the other party could speak, Jiang Qi spoke first and gained the right to speak.

"What a coincidence," she said.

"You didn't see the road falling?"
