鄰近傍晚,夕陽被厚重的烏雲吞沒,大地籠罩於一片漆黑之中,烏雲不只帶來黑暗,同時也挾帶著驚人雨勢,讓地面變得泥濘不堪,難以行走。

貝亞姆樹林,這是位於亞拉爾大森林以及貝恩城中間的小樹林,有著幾戶獵戶以及伐木工居於此地,但是本該人聲鼎沸的伐木場此刻陷入一片寂靜。

一夥看起來就不好惹的強盜已經光顧這個地點,在大雨沖刷下,強盜們作案的痕跡很快化作腥紅細流,消失在這個雨夜之中。

伐木場周圍有著防護用圍欄,入口處則架設一個小高台,一般會由工人輪班,監視森林中動物的動向。而現在一個滿臉絡腮鬍的粗壯大漢佔據了這個位置,他坐在小木椅上,愜意地吃著同夥送來的烤肉,同時警惕著森林中任何動靜。

他放下手中的盤子,手已經握住懸在腰間的號角,不過當他看到從樹叢中竄出的人影,忍不住啐了一聲,又回復原先姿態。

肯尼用少了食指的右手比了個中指,沒有回話直接跑進營地裡。多雷頓也不在意,反正團隊裡嘴巴更臭的人多的是。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAeYVXAnvI8i
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6f0OqtLjqj

肯尼直接跑到了伐木場後面的山洞中。團長柯爾森就坐在山洞入口處,一邊旋轉著烤肉架的握把,一邊望向洞穴外,憂鬱滄桑的表情讓人看不出他在想什麼。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAiW9N0rMNFz
103Please respect copyright.PENANA2okW8iFWv2

肯尼也不敢多問,只是跑到柯爾森身旁靜靜等待。他可不敢擅自開口,上一個這樣做的,現在還埋在不知道哪個森林的土裡呢。

103Please respect copyright.PENANA1OqlpIuxxc

「哈哈,不枉費我不斷給出的假消息,卡雷爾那臭婊子中計了吧。」一掃先前憂鬱的表情,柯爾森臉上露出猙獰的笑容,「媽的,敢一直壞我們的好事,這次一定要把她抓起來。」

柯爾森領導的強盜團夥,其在外以傭兵團的身分到處胡作非為,但是由於團長柯爾森實力強勁,再加上搶完就跑的習慣,因此大多數人對他們沒什麼辦法。

距離道路不遠的距離,這裡有著一處空曠的場所,特別清理過的地面是大量小碎石鋪成的地板,這是專門整理出來讓避雨商隊暫時扎營的地點。

商隊在赤牙傭兵團的指揮下,將馬車排成不算規整的圓形,只留下一個小出口,雖然不能說百分之百安全,但是至少可以讓危險來臨時,傭兵團不用面對四面八方湧上的敵人。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAMl709smPYm

在中間的地方,用油布搭起一個大大的平頂棚子,讓大部分的人能夠在這裡稍作休息,畢竟馬車上都裝滿了貨物,並沒有多少能夠容納人們的位置。
103Please respect copyright.PENANALRXByswpZi
夏莉娜和埃尼亞也下了馬車,她們坐在棚子的邊緣,靠著附近小火堆取暖。就在這時,赤牙團長卡雷爾手中拿著兩個木碗走她們身旁。

夏莉娜遲疑了一會兒,這才接過了木碗。埃尼亞則是在她接過碗之前就已經大口喝起來。
103Please respect copyright.PENANA45ooXEppQl
103Please respect copyright.PENANANRcjC6gVPj
冒著熱氣的湯呈現混濁的黃色,量不算多,喝起來有點辣還有一絲絲甜,雖然份量不多,但是熱湯才剛入腹,夏莉娜便覺得渾身暖和許多。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAUfsy0nKJb3

聞言,夏莉娜環顧四周,這才發現除了她們之外,只有少部分的傭兵團成員手上有著木碗,其餘的人大多都只是圍坐在火堆旁取暖而已。

還沒等她有所反應,卡雷爾接著開口問道。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAr4NgWgEVOa
103Please respect copyright.PENANAKzVPtmkOqS
103Please respect copyright.PENANAz7p7QMQWfG

103Please respect copyright.PENANAPHIyFmZ6k8
「情報對傭兵來說可是很重要的,像您這樣的大人物特地外出一趟,應該是有什麼要事得處理,看在熱湯的份上多少透露一點給我也沒關係吧。」
103Please respect copyright.PENANAp20qodaedH
103Please respect copyright.PENANAMcebnrekTg
103Please respect copyright.PENANAAnFUgTE7Fu
夏莉娜一時語塞。雖然說這件事是她的私事,也沒有告訴外人的必要,不過正如卡雷爾所說,反正也不是什麼大事,透露一些沒什麼關係。
103Please respect copyright.PENANA1KwbObOUas
103Please respect copyright.PENANAG2yTOrZd2e

103Please respect copyright.PENANAfQNw02L7Si
「塔菲恩?那還真遠呢,精靈王國最近和塔菲恩王國有什麼交集嗎?」卡雷爾直接忽略掉夏莉娜前半段話,接著詢問道。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAz7c5s7zFWF
103Please respect copyright.PENANAfoyksO3Btc
103Please respect copyright.PENANA1dEZzbAS28
「不,是我自己的私事。」這樣說完,夏莉娜低下了頭。
103Please respect copyright.PENANA6y6EAtbK87
103Please respect copyright.PENANAJeM1NJNDRm
103Please respect copyright.PENANAhg3wrdtilM
「诶,這樣啊。」卡雷爾發出怪聲,明顯不相信夏莉娜的話。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAlx9xjNrrn7
103Please respect copyright.PENANAwFVV4rivVq
103Please respect copyright.PENANAch2G5bmBCd
儘管如此,夏莉娜也不會多做解釋,畢竟她和卡雷爾並不熟,更何況對方因此會錯意而轉頭離開那就更好了。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAY6CsDu3jBn
103Please respect copyright.PENANAywJ8nTzq46
103Please respect copyright.PENANAq5sPT7DERI
不過卡雷爾可不會輕易放棄,既然夏莉娜不想說,那麼換個對象就好了。

103Please respect copyright.PENANAy2Kb0chiJh
103Please respect copyright.PENANA4LLhSzYuu1
卡雷爾表面上打了個哈哈,但是內心已經發出嘆息。連續兩次提問失利,再繼續問下去應該也得不出什麼結果。
103Please respect copyright.PENANAlU9jYE55j6
103Please respect copyright.PENANAHG9qSCIlPs
103Please respect copyright.PENANAwvQsTJpMVP
卡雷爾本打算找個藉口直接離開,畢竟旅程還有一段時間,之後熟悉一點再問,搞不好可以得到不一樣的答案。不過在她執行想法前就被夏莉娜給打消她的念頭。

103Please respect copyright.PENANAcjns7WxEAf
根據卡雷爾所說,該傭兵團名為古蘭的榮光,雖然以榮光為名,但是其行事作風與一般強盜團基本沒有區別,因此又被一般人稱為古蘭的瘋狗。
103Please respect copyright.PENANA82Hv5lI47h
103Please respect copyright.PENANACgCWOTetOX
103Please respect copyright.PENANAG85II8LDFJ
並且一般強盜相比,他們卻有著精銳的武裝,以及訓練有素的戰士,因此才能夠四處流竄而不被剿滅。根據小道消息指出,榮光傭兵團是已經覆滅的古蘭帝國遺民組建,因此才對追捕精靈這種行為情有獨鍾。

「不清楚,不過古蘭帝國跟塔菲恩王國有仇倒是可以肯定,畢竟當初揭露帝國的陰謀,讓帝國聲敗名裂,隨後拉攏盟友一舉戰勝帝國的,正是有著『黃金雄獅』稱號的傳奇劍聖,塔菲恩王國的伊維斯伯爵。」

103Please respect copyright.PENANAPgqJS20aEH
夏莉娜露出苦笑,畢竟她昏迷了兩百多年,這也是沒辦法的事情。不過話說回來,卡雷爾口中提到的伊維斯伯爵,該不會是萊爾吧?

「那些之後有空再說,話說妳也不用太擔心啦,瘋狗之前已經被我們趕跑了,聽說最近跑到更北部的國家附近作亂,所以到貝恩城這段路,應該是沒什麼危險。」
103Please respect copyright.PENANAdMfwlDr2LR
103Please respect copyright.PENANALbP5XkRqQN
聽到卡雷爾所述,夏莉娜稍微感到放心,畢竟之前一直聽到捕奴團的消息,多少還是有些不安,不過看卡雷爾信心滿滿地模樣,應該沒有太大問題——
