Chapter 268: Summer Wind
"I am a Scourge Courier."
Hearing this answer, Xia Feng said in his heart that this was indeed the case.
Although he was tightly wrapped and looked like an infected person who didn't want to reveal his identity, his true identity was that of a Scourge Courier, and the clothes and scarf on his body were supposed to be a special source stone material isolation material.
And the heavy source stone substance emitted from his body should have just experienced a natural disaster not long ago, perhaps to evacuate residents during a natural disaster, or to enter the natural disaster area for rescue.
At least on the surface, the work of the Scourge Messengers is unpaid, they are not employed by the state, they are not driven by profits, and their footprints are all over the world, just to allow more people to survive before the disaster strikes.
For Xia Feng, who had personally experienced natural disasters, he knew very well how terrifying natural disasters were, and to be able to deal with this kind of thing all day long, in addition to a strong heart, he also needed to have extraordinary willpower, so in the face of the natural disaster messenger in front of him, he still had a very high respect.
"It turns out that you are a great messenger of the Scourge, what a disrespect."
"It's just my job, that's all."
Xia Feng didn't know what kind of experience this person had in his life to be able to call this kind of profession that rubbed shoulders with death so calmly as a job, but this was obviously not something he was looking into, another thing he cared about now.
This person's body was filled with a strong source stone substance, and although this concentration was not enough to cause illness to ordinary people passing by in a short period of time, there was no doubt that the natural disaster he experienced was not long ago.
"Mr. Courier, I would like to know, have you just experienced a natural disaster?"
"That's right."
"What time is it?"
"Ten days ago."
"Yes...... Is Casimir on the territory? ”
"That's right."
Xia Feng took a deep breath and asked the question he really wanted to know.
"Can you tell me where this disaster is?"
Hearing Xia Feng's question, the messenger sitting on the wooden box immediately changed his expression, and his eyes became complicated when he looked at Xia Feng.
After a moment, he said in a deep voice.
"My job is to get people to evacuate before a natural disaster strikes, and if I'm late, I'll do my best to get them out of it, but I will never direct people to a natural disaster area."
"You misunderstood ....."
"I know what you mean, and I probably guessed what you were going to do, I advise you to give up, this natural disaster is very unusual, for everyone, life is precious, something that cannot be exchanged no matter how much wealth is used."
"I ......."
"I can't answer your question, I'm sorry, I'm leaving."
With that, Mr. Courier stood up and left the alley in silence.
Standing in the gloomy alley, Xia Feng let out a wry smile.
Yes, he should have known that the job of the Messenger of the Scourge is to guide people away from the Scourge, and how could they, who have devoted their lives to this work, provide him with information to go to the Scourge.
Perhaps in the eyes of outsiders, he is as greedy as those marauders who desperate for the Source Stone, and if he is not strong enough, perhaps he will be ashamed of himself in front of Mr. Courier just now.
However, at this moment, he knows very well what he is doing for all, even if he is not understood, he will do it, he doesn't care what others think of him, because he knows that what is more dangerous than natural disasters is the human heart, and three years later, when the real disaster comes, there will be more people suffering, and the chain reaction of the revolution set off by someone to the world is far more terrifying than natural disasters.
He wasn't so arrogant as to want to save everyone, but at least he wanted to save those he cherished.
Nanfeng stood at the entrance of the alley, looking at Xia Feng's back, for some reason, at this moment, he felt that this back was so heavy, what Xia Feng was really carrying might be much more than he knew.
"Summer Breeze ........"
Xia Feng turned around, squeezing out a smile despite the exhaustion in his eyes.
"It's okay, let's go find a place to rest."
"Yes."
The streets of Karan Town are potholed, and the air is filled with dust from horses' hooves.
Walking on the road, Nanfeng couldn't help but ask out loud.
"Xia Feng, don't tell me, you're fighting the idea of a natural disaster."
Xia Feng stretched a big lazy waist as he walked.
"Even if I want to play, I have to know the position."
It didn't matter what Xia Feng said, but Nanfeng obviously cared.
"I advise you to give up, it won't succeed."
The summer breeze turned its head sideways.
"Why do you think so?"
Nanfeng replied with a serious face.
"We don't have professional experience in source stone collection, I have learned before, like the Glasgow Gang, the number of natural disaster teams dispatched at a time must be at least ten or more, in addition to excellent leaders, every member is the elite of the elite, and sometimes they will cooperate with well-known mercenary organizations, they have a clear division of labor, reconnaissance, concealment, vigilance, collection, retreat, every step must be perfect, but even the kind of organization with first-class action is still reluctant to have an accident in the chaotic natural disaster area."
"Oh, what do you mean by accident?"
South Wind Positive Color Road.
"According to the grapevine, about four months ago, the leader of the Glasgow Gang, the King of Advancement, led the elite members to Ursas, and their actions were very stealthy, no one knew what their purpose was, but it was clear that they were heading for the Source Stone."
"And then?"
"Then, according to the information we bought, just half a month after the start of the Glasgow Gang operation, the King of Advancement returned to Victoria with the injured members, who were said to be in a coma when she returned, and the number of members was reduced compared to before the departure, and there was a suspicion that someone in the team had contracted the ore disease, and it was clear that they had failed in that operation."
Xia Feng's expression didn't see any change, but he replied lightly.
"Yes."
Xia Feng's calm appearance made Nanfeng a little excited, and in his opinion, Xia Feng was not aware of the danger of the natural disaster area at all.
"Xia Feng, I advise you not to be naïve, you ......."
"South wind."
Xia Feng stood still, interrupting the sound of the south wind.
"Southwind, do you know what the Ursac Scourge area where the King of Advancement went at that time is called?"
"I.... I do not know. ”
"Mandel City."
Nanfeng's pupils contracted instantly, and he remembered the name Mandel City, because Xia Feng had inadvertently mentioned it to him before.
"Summer Breeze..... Don't you .....?"
Summer Breeze raised his head and looked at the gloomy sky, which was not as dark as the sky of Mandel City, but it was just as full of haze.
A calm voice came out of his mouth.
"That's right, I was in the Glasgow gang at the time, and the King of Advancement was unconscious because I injected her with drugs to suppress ore sickness."
"What!"
Xia Feng continued to speak calmly, as if telling a very ordinary thing.
"Nanfeng, no one in the natural disaster area has full confidence that they can survive, even if it seems to be ready for ten thousand, unpredictable situations will still emerge one after another, everyone wants to get the source stone, but the purpose of getting the source stone is different, I didn't understand anything at that time, I didn't have any purpose, the only wish was just to let someone live healthy, but then I understood, fear of death is not able to live, only with the determination to die, can you live to the end."
Summer Wind's thoughts drifted back to the ruined city of death.
Vina's bloodshot eyes are still fresh in his memory, and he can feel the tears dripping from Vina's face, and at that moment, they both want to use their lives to continue each other.
It was precisely because he chose to forcibly inject the inhibitor into Vina at that time, and used his life to help Indra stop the pursuers, which made the current Xia Feng possible.
Vina thought he was dead, but he survived, he didn't hesitate at the time, it was his choice without regrets.
So, what Vina can't do now, he can do, no, he has to do it for Vena.
