Chapter 227 "Lord Paimon"
"So, Ms. Paimon. The "treasure" you talk about may actually exist, but it is not a "treasure" in the popular sense... It must be some kind of "secret" or even "taboo." "
After shattering Paimon's illusion, Abei Xi repeated the conclusion just now. Only this time, there was more doubt and curiosity in her eyes.
Although this is the conclusion she and the traveler share, what kind of secret deserves to be kept so secret? What kind of unknown story is hidden under this Yuanxia Palace?
"Ugh……"
Sighing silently, Abeixi vaguely felt that she might not be able to understand all the secrets. At least... the most important secret is probably not something she can know.
Because, she has found the common ground between herself and the travelers - they cannot be regarded as "people" from "Tevat".
From the perspective of the meaning of "Tevat", it is obvious that travelers are the best candidates to approach and unlock the secret. And he... maybe it's because he can't find a more suitable candidate?
"Wow! It's so scary. What you said matches the eerie atmosphere here... Paimon is going to get goosebumps!"
Although Abei Xi's tone was not sinister, Paimon was still affected by the environment and became cowardly. Not only did he lower his flying height, he also subconsciously leaned towards Ying's direction.
"Well, now is not the time to talk about this. The troops have almost been assembled, and we can start preliminary exploration."
While the three of them were chatting and advancing the situation, mechas were still jumping down from above carrying soldiers from the Fools. And now, almost all of them have been assembled.
At about this time, a person who was suspected to be the leader trotted up to the three of them after finishing the team. After performing a solstice military salute, he reported the specific situation to the three of them.
Yes, you heard me right, three people. Paimon was also included.
"Lord Abei Xi, Lord Traveler, and Lord Paimon. The team has been assembled and ready for the next step. Please give instructions!"
"Eh? Is there Paimon as well?"
Paimon was shocked. She had never been called "sir" by anyone in her life, and it was difficult for her to accept this title for a while. If the other party hadn't directly mentioned the name, she wouldn't even have applied this title to herself.
"Yes, Lord Paimon. This is what Lord [Mortal] specially ordered."
After the leader explained something, he stood there, waiting for the instructions of the three people.
In fact, according to [Mortal] Sir, the right to command lies with the traveler. But that doesn't mean he can ignore the other two.
Lord Paimon will not say anything else. He does not have the guts to do what Lord [Mortal] specially proposed.
As for Lord Abeixi, she is always the person who is always by the side of Lord [Mortal]. It is said that the master personally discovered and recruited top talents from the Fools... To be valued so much by that master, this alone deserves their respect.
"Zuo, Zuo Xi actually...I, I'm so touched, wuwuwuwu..."
Paimon cried with joy. She had never felt so valued except by the Traveler. Although Zuo Xi usually seems to be perfunctory with her, now it seems that he still values himself very much!
"Ying, Abei Xi, the next step is to search for the way forward, right? Hehe... can you, can you let Paimon give the order..."
Paimon scratched his head and asked the two of them in a low voice, very embarrassed. Even if he just relayed the two people's orders, Paimon really wanted to experience this feeling.
Maybe you realize that your request is a bit too much? Paimon's voice became softer and softer as he continued speaking, and by the time he finally spoke out his true request, his voice was already barely audible.
But how could the person talking to her be an ordinary person? Both heard her whispered plea.
Ying cast a questioning look at Abei Xi. Although according to Zuo Xi, she had absolute command authority, she was obviously not the kind of person who abused her power. Abei Xi’s opinion must also be respected in this matter.
"Of course. If you please, Ms. Paimon."
Abei Xi received the questioning look from the traveler and agreed without much thought.
When there is unity of opinion, it does not matter who gave the order. What matters is the order itself, not the person giving it.
"Great!"
After receiving a positive answer to Paimon's somewhat unreasonable request, he happily spun around in the sky several times and almost dropped the crown from his head.
"Ahem, then, follow my orders!"
Paimon steadied himself and pretended to clear his throat. Recalling the way Zuo Xi was one of the few who gave orders seriously, he imitated them in a decent manner.
"Search this area, explore the way forward, and don't miss any details along the way... Ah! That's right.
Ahem, if you find anything, report it first and don’t act rashly! "
Rarely, Paimon recalled the key points of the discussion at the last moment. So he urgently supplemented the order issued and asked the troops responsible for the search not to make their own decisions.
"Yes!"
After receiving the formal order, the leader waiting aside straightened his posture and performed a winter military salute. Then he returned to the queue and began to issue more detailed instructions.
"Search this area" is a seemingly specific command, but when implemented, you will find that it is actually very general. When it comes to specific implementation, issues such as how to search, the area responsible for, the density of the search, environmental survey, etc. will appear one by one.
It is the role of this leader to be responsible for transforming general orders into specific instructions.
……
The search and exploration went very smoothly.
To put it simply, it's wherever they go, whether it's dragon lizards or various strange materials. It achieves the ultimate demand without destroying the original ecology as much as possible.
Every inch of land has not been spared, and every factor that can be called "special" will be reported. There are few secrets left in this sweeping search for a statement.
They just pushed forward along the only road until they arrived in front of a huge artificial creation that seemed to be a "door".
Here, they encountered the first obstacle - this door, which they could not open.
"Behind this door should be the "Lost Kingdom". It is also the sea of mind, the former site of the ancestors of Haiqi Island, the country under the ocean abyss.
We have always been walking on the road of "approach" before. "
Abeixi looked at the huge door in front of him and came to the conclusion that their previous search was a veritable "path exploration".
And behind this door, I am afraid that is where everything is buried.
