Chapter 1038 The Cursed Dragon and His Human Knight (25)
The Cursed Dragon and His Human Knight (Twenty-Five)
The journey to the Nova Chamber of Commerce took longer than Lance expected, which forced him to increase his sleep time at Song Ning's place.
Fortunately, perhaps because he has been behaving well recently, Song Ning only teased him, saying, "He loves to sleep so much, but he's still a young cub. He still needs to grow."
Lance didn't refute what he said. He just rubbed Song Ning's fingers with his wings, then lay down, closed his eyes and went to sleep.
"Awake? Your timing is perfect, bro. They just said they're ready to move on."
When I opened my eyes, I saw the red-bearded face looking at me from not far away.
Lance patted his clothes and stood up. Most of the mercenaries were resting on the ground in the open air. Some experienced mercenaries had their own sleeping bags and the like. He had no preparations, so he basically just found a rock to lean against and fell asleep.
Lance: "Well, leaving at this time again?"
The rosy clouds on the horizon were dyed into large patches of red, and all around were endless bare mountains. In the middle of the valley, a path well-trodden by people was lined with a dense row of carriages and people. Lance and Red Beard were at the end of the caravan as usual, so their departure time would be a little slower than the previous ones.
But it was obviously evening now. Since they set out, the people from the Nova Chamber of Commerce almost always set out in the evening and rested during the day. Many mercenaries who were not used to it obviously had some complaints, but they did not dare to speak out because of their powerlessness.
Red Beard gathered his bedding and drank a sip of water. "That's right. If you talk to the Nova Chamber of Commerce a few more times, you'll know. There's a troublesome magician in their team who only wakes up at night, so this caravan has always followed this itinerary."
Lance paused slightly as he was about to leave.
Was the information revealed in Red Beard's words really accidental or intentional?
Red Beard seemed to be unaware of what important information he had said. After saying this, he fell silent and set off with the team.
Lance took a little note of what he said about the magician who only woke up at night, but most of the time he remained silent. He and Red Beard looked particularly out of place among the group of mercenaries at the end.
After traveling all night, the entire caravan arrived at a small town in the morning.
"Rest here for a day today and continue on our journey tomorrow afternoon. If you need to restock your supplies, don't forget to hurry up. Those who fall behind will not be rewarded."
"understood."
"I know a place here where the food is delicious and cheap. Do you want to go for a drink together?"
"Not good, we have to set off again tomorrow."
"What are you afraid of? I'm just going out for a drink. Besides, we're not leaving until tomorrow afternoon. Are you worried about missing the trip?"
"That's true, let's go together. Oh, and you two over there, you should go too."
Lance and Red Beard were called at the same time. The former didn't react much, while the latter turned his head to look at Lance.
"What do you say, are we going?"
Lance lowered his eyes and glanced at the group of mercenaries who had made the invitation. These people were the other mercenaries besides him and Red Beard, but they rarely took the initiative to chat with him and Red Beard. Why did they suddenly make the invitation today?
He raised his eyelids and asked Red Beard.
"I'm not interested in going, but it seems like you don't need to ask me if you're going, right? We don't seem to be familiar with each other, right?"
Red Beard's expression darkened.
