Chapter 963: The Name of the Lone Wolf (12)

The landscape outside had changed again, and all traces had disappeared in the blizzard, leaving only a smooth patch of snow and a brighter light after the snow clouds had dissipated a little. The cold wind is still a little bit, not big, and the last lingering breath will probably stop completely before dark.

Looking at the long trails left in the snow behind her, Kasia turned her gaze to Jetlin and stood still.

"What's wrong?" Ye Jielin walked over, took off her mask and gasped.

"It's nothing, it's just thinking about the assessment again. Kasia retracted her gaze and replied as she continued on her way.

A few hours after the blizzard stopped, the two men left the cave with their chosen weapons and equipment. There was silence all around, and the "creaking" sound of snow could be heard far, far away. In the last two days of the cave, Ye Jielin finally made up her mind not to participate in the competition for a place.

The female intuition that she relied on became stronger and stronger, and later became a signal that Ye Jielin could not erase, which greatly affected her judgment. The panic that hadn't appeared for a long time also found her at this time, and she always felt that something bad would happen, but intuition was usually just a guiding signal, and Ye Jielin didn't get the answer she wanted from the thinking in her head.

What would it be that would leave her? Or did it feel like a life-threatening danger was looming? Walking behind Kasia, Yeterin seemed a little distracted, and many times she couldn't catch up. She was still thinking back to her previous decision, when she had focused on the things that were close to her, and there was no one else around but Kasia.

She knew that if she wanted to compete for a spot, she would not rely on herself, but Kassia on the side. Does it mean that Kasia will be in danger? No matter what she thinks, Jetlin can't get around this link, so she gives up her pre-assessment plan at that time. Now that this instinct has appeared, she will not let Kasia take any more risks. The living Cassia is much more important than the quota.

After a few hours of advance, by the afternoon the two had left their original peak, and a straight route led them to a peripheral peak farther from the center. Many of the evacuees began to be met here, mostly silent, wondering if it was the blizzard that shattered their minds, or if something else made them see their position.

It's rare to be safe, and being away from the center seems to mean a tacit understanding that there will be no more fighting. On the way, they just glanced at each other, and then buried their heads again.

The second type of creatures also disappeared at this point, a strange thing. From time to time, Kasia would look back behind her, the bright light and breeze made her vision wider than ever, and she could see a very long distance, with more than a dozen peaks overlapping behind her, standing like an icy throne, waiting for the final victory to appear one by one. There were all kinds of signs that the thirty-six ferocious creatures were about to come out, and one of the signs was that the creatures of the second type were beginning to converge purposefully.

Soon the terrain began to rise, and when we reached the base of the mountain, the snow became thinner and the feet were on hard rocks. The examiners gathered at the foot of the mountain, and they were inactive after losing something, and the blizzard froze something, making them dull like weeds from frost.

Passing through the crowd with Ye Jielin, the two continued to walk along the foot of the mountain. It's not completely safe here, and Kasia wants to take Yeterin to the outermost peak, where the danger factor is minimal.

"At that time, you can think about how to get out. Kasia thought to herself.

After walking the arc-shaped distance of the foot of the small halfway mountain in half an hour, an open and slightly raised bare mountain rock platform appeared in the eyes of the two of them. Naturally, it became a gathering place for people, whether it was people who withdrew from the central location, or the procession marching towards the center from the outer regions, it was used as a temporary resting place and a place to gather corresponding news.

About 2,000 people stayed there, and the humming sound spread from the center. Yeterin pulled Kasia, who wanted to hurry immediately, to the rock, and quickly entered the crowd. There was a large group of people visibly gathered under a steep mountain rock, where they were observing something.

In the field of vision, there are a dozen or so alloy frames used to hold second-class creatures, which have been moved by someone and piled up under the steep rocks. It seems that people are looking at those things.

"I don't think there will be any useful information here. Kasia said that in his opinion, the outlying regions are no longer a threat to him at this time.

"It's good to take a break. Ye Jielin replied, at this time, like most people around her, she didn't take off her mask and made her voice accented, "Go over and look, there seems to be something hanging on the stacked alloy frame." ”

Walking in front, only a few dozen meters away, in front of the steep mountain rock, Ye Jielin saw the whole picture of the alloy frame clearly. It was used as a scaffold, and more than a dozen large frames were stacked on both sides and fixed to the mountain rock. Between the brackets, an alloy rope is held, and things are hung on the alloy rope.

When I saw that there were more than a dozen hard ice cubes, I squinted my eyes and removed the effect of the light reflected by the edges and corners of the ice cubes, and I could clearly see the frozen corpses inside the ice cubes. Like amber, the sword wounds on the corpse and the hole made by the gun are clearly visible, and the expression of the dead is fully captured and preserved.

At this time, Ye Jielin noticed that on the rocks behind the dozen or so corpses, there was a row of blurred words, which were written with fire bolts. After a blizzard, the rocks were erased and made even more difficult to see. It's just that the few characters visible on the string of numbers, as well as the last gear symbol like the sun, are not difficult to remind Ye Jielin of something. That's the Leonard family logo.

Ye Jielin turned around and found Kasia standing in place more than ten meters behind him. When he came to the side, Kasia withdrew his gaze from the corpses and fell on Jetrin.

"Is that how the big family does things?" asked Kasia emotionlessly, "I mean some of the people inside, a few. I didn't know each other at all, but I met on the way, and it took less than half a day to travel together. The only information was the names of two of them, one named Na'e and the other Lucius. ”

Kasia looked up again at the two corpses hanging in the middle: "It's all a small family, and they also said that after the assessment, there is a chance to go to them to have a look." ”

Yeterine followed Kasia's gaze, and both Na'e Fan and Lucius were shot through the head. A small-caliber pistol with little power was deliberately used, so that the hole in the forehead could be very clear, and the bullet would not blow open the face.

"As you think, just some people, a few. Many people don't do this, and there is still a basic bottom line. But there are too many clansmen in the big family, and in order to ensure continuity, the younger generation is even more so. Because the people at the top know that there are many younger generations who will be lost in the process of growing up, so their base is large enough. ”

"Do you need my help? You've always been by my side, and now you can see that I'm by your side. Now it's the assessment, and it's very likely that all the Leonard family members will die in the assessment. As for the end of the assessment, I will try my best to help you deal with it. ”

"After the assessment?" Kasia muttered, and then, a laughing voice suddenly came from under the mask, "Whether it is during the assessment or after the assessment, I think they can only rely on this method to express their pity." ”
