Novia laughed, thinking of something: "Indeed. "But maybe she's planning something, Kara cherishes her life very much, but she won't be a peaceful person, and she will definitely find a way to return it to Meredith." She never owes her family anything. ”

"By the way, if you have the opportunity to see her again in the future, remember to say hello to her for me. Novia then turned and walked into the ice cave.

"Miss Novia," Kasia called out, "if those things hadn't happened two years ago, and Kara was still a member of the Meredith family, what do you think would have happened now?"

Novia, who had stopped in place, turned around and looked at the source of the voice, although she couldn't see anything: "Some things are decided from birth, not only Meredith, but also the other families in the Quartet. In many cases, many people are mechanically serving fixed rules and processes, and it is these fixed things that support the operation of a huge system. It's not so much hard to change, it's almost impossible to change. Because no one knows if there is a problem in one of the links, it will cause other changes. Stability can overwhelm everything for the vast majority of the time, just remember that. ”

"Furthermore, even if Kara is promoted in the future, her information will not have a chance to be rewritten in the family super analysis machine, unless in some aspects, such as strength or power, she can stand at one of the peaks of the two. ”

Watching Novia enter the ice cave, Kasia turned to look at the spotless black in front of her, thinking about something, and finally let out a long sigh.

The snow trails split in front of you, and the two trails pointed in different directions. Andrew stood at the point of divergence and fell into thought. Several captains also did not speak, but carefully discerned the difference between the two in front of the traces, trying to see if there was any difference. The result is tantamount to disappointment, and to say that this is a means to confuse those who come after it is too true. In their experience, they have not been able to see anything out of it. It was as if the two people who had been walking in front of their team had separated here for unknown reasons, and at least these two undisguised traces told them.

are all waiting for Andrew's decision, and the consideration before the fork in the road seems to be important. Andrew took a few steps in place, eventually pointing in the direction of one of the tracks, and the team was able to continue moving after him.

It was also at this time that it began to darken, and Andrew looked at the time, and it was half past three in the afternoon. Because the temperature has dropped by about ten degrees in the past two days, the night of the tundra has also advanced by nearly an hour.

"You have to find a good place to rest before dark. "I followed the trail for about an hour, and it was dark all around. Andrew, who was thinking, was pulled back in front of him by the returning scouting team. After listening to the basic situation report, Andrew and several captains broke away from the forward team at a faster speed.

Nearly two kilometers away, Andrew and several captains approached the team and looked in front of him.

It was a battle trail covered with hoarfrost, and nearly a hundred corpses were lying in a circular area with a radius of less than two or three hundred meters.

"In less than three hours, judging by the degree of freezing of wounds and bodies. One of the captains said as he returned from a circle ahead, "It was someone from the Tryangamus family, and I could roughly tell that the man had spotted them from a great distance, and then increased his speed to the extreme, killing their captain with a single blow." As he spoke, he pointed to the side, where the traces resembled the white triangular tail of a boat dragged on the water.

Andrew nodded, beckoned to the people around him, and walked forward. Didn't think about disposing of the corpses, didn't think about disposing of the traces. There was still a lot of information left on it, and Andrew's expression gradually became solemn in the observation. The footsteps eventually stopped at the edge of a few crushed ice, the marks of the tremendous force of moving the body quickly. As long as there is an intention, the captains around Andrew can also cause such an effect.

It was just the sharp scratches left under the shattered ice that made Andrew squint. While the sky was not completely dark, Andrew looked up in the direction where the trail had extended, and only withdrew his gaze for about ten seconds.

"Go back, that's not our goal. Andrew turned around and said, not explaining anything to the captains.

It doesn't seem to need an explanation, most of them are hired by money, and simply obeying orders is their favorite thing. And another thing, after the last incident, the sharp scratches on the ice faintly reminded them of something.

It can be known that the location of such a wide cave, if it is not for the help of luck, it can only be said that the family's exploration played a huge role before the assessment began.

Two large tin chests were placed in the corner of the cave, overlapping shadows pulled by the light of several piles of flames. Less than sixty or seventy people were sitting around the fire, enjoying the warm food that was rare in the cold weather by the temperature of the flame. Others were inspecting their weapons in the firelight, and the new supplies would make them more prepared for the rest of the day.

Yi and Plisla, as well as the captains of the three teams, were together, but they didn't talk too much between them, and they were all thinking about their own affairs. Someone in the team walked over at this moment, left a few bottles of distinct potions, and left silently. Presta tilted his head to look at it, picked it up and gave it to the corresponding person.

"Thank you. Yi directly injected the potion from his neck, casually threw the empty syringe into the fire, and made a "pop" popping sound, "I didn't expect you to have such a member here, otherwise in a short time, I wouldn't have a good way to relieve Annabelle's biological poison from the destruction of the body." ”

"I learned it from the Flame Alliance. How to say it, the development of the empire is the most balanced, which has caused the steam machinery to be inferior to the Far Sea Commonwealth, and the living and natural fire alliance. But this is not a problem for three-way network companies. Information for information, the other two mega-powers are very fond of it. ”

Prisra said as if he were complimenting himself. Yi smiled, and was about to answer, but the smile on his face disappeared. Immediately turning his head to look at the exit of the cave, Prisra followed Yi's movements.

It was shrouded in a dim firelight, and a figure close to the color of the rock itself swayed with the swaying of the firelight. At some point, an outsider found the place, standing at the exit searching for his target.
