Chapter 1370: Hoffman's plan

Just when Hoffman’s attention was all drawn to the strange man and woman, he suddenly heard Bain Ruf explain to them in a low voice like a servant: "I have already gone to the agreed place and waited. , It was only discovered by someone, and the design was caught back..."
"I know, it doesn't matter, as long as you can get here, it's the same who led the way, now you don't owe us anything." Leo interrupted Bain's explanation, and then said to the three guides on the side: "Since you have reached the place, you can also leave. I must have experienced so many things. You should also want to see your relatives."
After listening, the three of Powell's family looked at each other and ran away in a panic like a pardon.
Leo ignored the others, but raised his head slightly and looked towards the main body of the Trub Mountain peak in front of him. Although his vision could not penetrate the clouds and mist entrenched on the mountainside, he could feel the emanation from the clouds and mist. Energy fluctuations.
"Do you feel it?" Leo asked Sylvia, "Is this the power of the abyss?"
Sylvia was silent for a moment, and said: "Yes and it is not." Then, he further explained: "This power is very similar to the power of the abyss, but it does not have the corrosive and chaotic nature of the power of the abyss. Like..."
"It's the same as being purified." Leo said after taking Sylvia's words.
"Yes, it was purified." Sylvia nodded in agreement.
Leo said with a confused look: "Can the power of the abyss also be purified and purified?"
Sylvia said with a solemn expression: "If it was before, I would say impossible, but now..."
Because Leo and Sylvia’s language is French, Bain and Hoffman next to them can’t understand them, but they can also tell from their expressions that they should be talking about Tru Boshan, and vaguely guessed that the purpose of the two people is probably to climb to the top of Mount Trub.
In this regard, Bain and Hoffman showed two completely different expressions. Bain showed a very casual look. He didn't care about whether the two were going to climb Mount Trub. He cared more about his current situation. However, Hoffman showed an expression of interest on his face, as if he also had some thoughts.
Although the family of lumberjacks have lived at the foot of Mount Trub for generations, and they all call themselves the sons of Mount Trub, they don’t know much about Mount Trub, and they have not even been to the top of the mountain. It's just going to the holy altar below the clouds and mist on the mountainside.
For Trub Mountain, the family of lumberjacks has nothing but awe in their hearts. Climbing to the top of the mountain to see what the top of the mountain looks like is an act of transcendence in their eyes, but there are exceptions to everything. Hoffman is the family of all lumberjacks. There was an exception among the members, but his exception perfectly concealed his thoughts without revealing it at all.
At a very young age, when Hoffman participated in the family’s sacrament for the first time, he thought about what the top of Mount Trub looks like. He wanted to know the secrets of Mount Trub and the woodcutter family. When he grew up and had the ability to explore on his own, he tried more than once to cross the holy altar and into the area behind the holy altar.
But no matter how he tried, it ended in failure. The clouds and mist that enveloped Trub Mountain seemed to have a powerful force, turning them into invisible walls, blocking all those who tried to climb the mountain, and keeping the top of the mountain and its secrets forever. Hidden behind the perennial clouds and fog.
Hoffman has never given up the idea of ​​climbing to the top of the mountain, but unfortunately he has never been able to do so. He has never said this idea to outsiders, even the closest person, because he knows how to say this. What kind of consequences would this idea be.
Now, he found that the two strangers in front of him seemed to have the idea of ​​climbing to the top of Mt. Trub, which made him feel that this might be an opportunity, and the things he planned before might be able to be carried out.
Just as Hoffman was considering the feasibility of what he had planned for many years, Leo also noticed Hoffman standing in front of him with a knight’s sword in his hand, although Hoffman’s power was not worthy in his eyes. Mention, but the energy fluctuations emanating from Hoffman made Leo feel a bit interesting, because the energy fluctuations on his body were very similar to the energy fluctuations of Trub Mountain.
"Are you in trouble?" Leo asked Bain, who looked a little embarrassed, "Do you need my help?"
"No, it's my own business." Bain quickly replied, turning around again, and said to Hoffman: "Are you still going to catch me now?"
Hoffman came back to his senses, was silent for a while, did not answer directly, just asked: "What are you going to do?"
Bain said blankly: "Since those guys dare to arrest me, they must have discussed with some people in the family. My patriarch plans to go back and reorganize the Rufu's house."
Hoffman did not stop Baine, but retracted the knight's sword into the scabbard and stood aside, not only hinting to Baine that he would not stop him from leaving, but also seemed to imply that he would not stop Leo and Sylvie. Ya keep going.
After seeing Hoffman's actions, Bain nodded to Hoffman, then bowed to Leo and Sylvia, and rushed into the thick fog with his companion beast.
"Let's go too!" Leo said to Sylvia, and the two of them stepped along the avenue of the mountain city towards the direction of the holy altar.
When the two left, Hoffman did not follow behind. Instead, he returned to the square from a small road. At this time, the square had not fully recovered from the chaos just now. Seeing Hoffman coming back alone, I thought Hoffman failed to catch Bain.
Although they also complained about this result, they did not dare to blame Hoffman too much. After all, the only person in the entire mountain city who was able to deal with Bain was Hoffman. If Hoffman would not do it because of their blame. Baine killed him again at this time. People who are not good at fighting can only become fish to be slaughtered.
Hoffman relieved everyone and said that Baine would not return to the mountain city in a short time. Then he ordered the body of Old Bjorn to be preserved and told them very clearly that Old Bjorn’s death was strange. , Bain may have been framed.
After ordering these things, he did not further persuade everyone, but asked the people of the mountain city defense team to continue to maintain public order in the city, and he was leaving for a period of time.
After that, without further explanation, he left the square and returned to his own home. He quickly put some climbing items he had prepared before into his backpack and carried them on his back.
After putting on the backpack, he left his house, then took a detour and came to the house of the head of the family Panshi.
Because at this moment, the patriarch and several other members of the Panshi family are trapped in the thick fog outside the mountain city, and will not return for a short time, and there is no one living here.
I saw Hoffman walked directly into the back room, and then quickly came to the patriarch’s bedroom, found the safe under the floor on the side of the wall, entered the password and opened the safe, and took out the woodcutter family patriarch to be eligible for safekeeping. The holy deed, received it inside the backpack.
After doing all this, he restored the things, went straight over the wall on the side of the small courtyard, and then found a path that few people would walk, left the mountain city, bypassed the avenue leading to the holy altar, and climbed It took nearly half an hour to go up the extremely rugged and steep mountain road, and the super shortcut came to a slightly protruding rock near the holy altar.
People standing in this position can just see the situation of the holy altar, and because of the obstacles of the mountains and rocks and the visual obstacles caused by the poor terrain, the people on the holy altar cannot see the people here, so you can safely observe the holy altar here. Everything about the altar.
This place was found by Hoffman accidentally before, in order to observe how the holy rite opened the clouds.
In the past, he tried to get directly into the clouds and mist. At that time, he thought that the clouds and mist that enveloped Trub Mountain were the same as those enveloped in the outer forest, which would only affect people from the non-lumberjack family. But after repeated attempts, he Finding his identity will not bring him any convenience, as long as he enters the clouds, he will lose his way.
Moreover, the road in the clouds and mist is more rugged and dangerous than the outside. He almost stumbled and died in it many times. If it weren't for his preparation, coupled with his own natural ability, it seems that he can get inspiration from Trub Mountain itself and find his way away. Perhaps he was trapped in the clouds and mist.
After many attempts, he found that the groping way alone could not help him reach the top of the mountain, so he could only look back to see if the lumberjack family had a way to walk freely in the clouded area.
After several years of secret observation and secret exploration, he really discovered that the lumberjack family did indeed have a way to enter the cloud and fog area.
It turns out that members of the lumberjack family are not really unable to go to the misty area above the holy altar, but a very special method is needed to allow people to enter the misty area without losing the road. This method is to use the holy Cheer up the road.
He discovered this method accidentally after spying on the Crowley’s holy deed ceremony, and he also discovered that this method is not known to all lumberjack families, and only two or three lumberjack families that stood at the top were the earliest. Knowing this method, the Crowley family is one of them.
At that time, he had seen Pachi after presiding over the sacrament of the Crowley's house more than once, and then quietly turned back, and then took out some seemingly unrelated ores, beast entrails, roots of trees, and nearby swamps. Using these methods to perform a mysterious sacrificial ritual, I saw that the Holy Deed was like a certain power inspired by the ritual, projecting a beam of light on Pachi, and then Pachi walked into the clouds. middle.
After about an hour or two, Pachi came out of the clouds again, but at this time Pachi made him feel a little different. The most obvious feeling was that Pachi's strength seemed to have improved a lot.
There are patriarchs of two other families like Paqi, but when they enter the cloud, their strength is not improved like Paqi when they come out, but they have something more in their hands, sometimes a book. , Sometimes it is a box filled with things, no matter what it is, it can be seen from their nervous attitude that those things are very precious.
After seeing this kind of ceremony many times, Hoffman wrote down the whole process of the ceremony, and also wrote down the things needed for the ceremony, and prepared a copy early, but he never had the opportunity to experiment.
The sacred deed is a special item that the patriarch of the lumberjack family can master. It can basically be said to be the patriarch’s token. If the deed is taken by others, the patriarch will definitely know, so unless Hoffman and the entire family, or even the entire family of lumberjacks are enemies, it is impossible for him to obtain the deed without sound.
This time, the few members of the family had an accident. He felt more fortunate in his heart. He did not have much sense of identity with the family. He thought that the family disappeared and disappeared. It was just the education he received from childhood that prevented him from making active concessions. The matter of the disappearance of the family, now that Trub Mountain has helped him complete it, he will not feel guilty or sad. He only needs to accept the final fruit. If there is no accident, he will be the last person in the family. Naturally, he obtained the Holy Deed and fulfilled his long-cherished wish for many years.
However, an accident occurred in the middle of the matter. The thick fog was not as deadly as he thought. Some people trapped in the thick fog have also walked out safely in the past two days, although they have appeared in spirit and consciousness. Some problems, but generally speaking, there is no life worry.
This also made him have to doubt that the patriarch and others of his family could also get out of the thick fog smoothly. In that case, what he was looking forward to had to be pushed back again. UU reading www. uukanshu.com
This also made him consider whether to take a gamble and forcefully take the deed of the family, then use that method to enter the cloud area, fulfill his long-cherished wish, and then leave here and never come back, but if he does this, he has no room for recovery. , If this method still fails to allow him to climb to the top of the mountain and see the secrets of Mount Trub, then he will never have a second chance in the future.
At this moment, two outsiders, Leo and Sylvia, appeared, and showed their intention to climb to Mount Trub. This is equivalent to giving Hoffman an extremely perfect target. The theft of Qi was pushed to the two of them, and whether he eventually climbed to the top of Mount Trub and discovered the secrets of the lumberjack family, he would have no problem, and he would still be able to stay in the mountain city as his martial arts. Chief, the captain of the defense team.
Thinking of this, Hoffman couldn't help but laugh, but he quickly stabilized his excitement and turned over the items prepared in the backpack one by one, so as not to find that when the ceremony was about to be carried out, he found that there was less. what.
Just after Hoffman checked his own things, Leo and Sylvia, the two strangers, were like two tourists coming to play, walking along the bluestone steps built by the ancestors of the lumberjack family. Walked to the holy altar.
