Looking at the surging Hoy River, Lucid was a little surprised for a while.

The cloud of suspicion that hung over the "Wind Chime" seemed to be uncovered by her little by little.

But what was revealed was a bigger question.

The Intis people want something like a map...what's the use?

Why did the people on the wind chime disappear without a trace? Was it a trick on Intis? Or is there someone else?

Pieces of mystery puzzled her, like layer after layer, layer upon layer of cocoon.

The chain of events, as if there is some kind of inexplicable connection.

But it seems that some key links are missing, making them unable to connect with each other.

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Lucid's mind flashed, and suddenly he thought of something.

Is the map that I can’t understand is really just a map?

There is no need to bring such things as maps on board, so the answer is ready.

What is recorded on the rough leather drawings is definitely not the topography, but the route.

This should be a route map.

But based on the observations from the previous glimpses, the route recorded in this blueprint is not like the simple Hoy River...

It is more like a nautical chart!

This thought, as if a shocking thunder blasted through Lucid's mind.

"hiss……"

He took a breath, and he couldn't help making waves in his heart.

Others may not be able to understand the meaning of this nautical chart for a while, but she is obviously not in this list.

This is most likely a clue about the "new route"!

The nautical chart that is worthy of Intis’s efforts to dispatch the extraordinary to seize is certainly not an ordinary thing!

As for the important things related to the chart, she naturally got in touch with the "New Route".

What Intis is plotting is the route map of the "New Route" on the "Wind Chime"!

Thinking along this line of thought, all the previous questions seemed to have been answered.

The nautical chart recording the new route is obviously worth the heavy price paid by Intis for this.

The strange thing that happened on the wind chime also seemed to have a reasonable explanation.

But... is that really the case?

Soon, Lucid shook his head and overturned the idea.

If this nautical chart is really a chart recording the new route, after getting the map, there is no need for the Intis people to create a fire in the dock area again?

What are they plotting?

Is this nautical chart really the route of the "new route"?

Lucid had a faint feeling of falling from one big pit into another.

This is really daunting.

"Ugh……"

With a sigh, she stopped her cranky thinking, turned and left the dark Hoy River.

The Hoy River is still flowing unceasingly, but near the shore, there are many broken woods and various debris of various shapes.

The tumbling river water seemed to hide iron-blue spheres, like poisonous snakes choosing people to eat.

…………

"Well……"

The next day, Lucid woke up from his dream in soreness.

I was tossing for too long last night, so that there was a faint feeling of lack of sleep.

The whole body is uncomfortable, and the soreness in the eyes is the most obvious.

Looking at the gray sky, she curled her lips, planning to sleep again.

As soon as her head hit the pillow, she snored again...

I don't know how long it has passed, and Lucid, feeling a bit dry, woke up again.

There was a faint feeling of something wrong.

Looking at the sky, it was still a misty color.

She couldn't help blinking.

This... doesn't seem to be right?

Glancing at the clock on the wall, she gave a sharp shock.

It's already afternoon this special meow?

A **** jumped up and hurriedly put on a skirt.

After washing up for a while, he boarded the carriage and went straight to the "Black Thorns Mercenary Corps."

Although I can't look down on that little salary, it's always not good to be late for this kind of thing.

The carriage hurried through the streets of Tingen, leaving a long rut on the muddy street.

After leaving the Jinwutong area, the sight of entering the destination became more and more shocking.

A large number of refugees with yellowish skin and stains were crowded under the eaves on the side of the road, their eyes blank but dull.

"Ugh……"

Lucid couldn't help sighing.

The status of these refugees is getting weaker and weaker. Compared with the previous days, the refugees are now even weaker.

Just like stalks in the ground, when the wind blows, they will fall, and even if there is no wind, they may fall...

After a short while, the carriage gradually drove to the front of the Church of St. Selena.

There are more refugees here, but they are not as weak as the refugees just now.

But it's too good.

They hustling around the white square in front of the church, like walking corpses.

The carriage moved on and finally arrived at 36 Zorant Street.

Regardless of other things, Lucid walked quickly towards the "Black Thorns Mercenary Group."

But she was surprised to find that the "black thorns" at this moment was in a state of closed doors.

He took out the brass-colored key and opened the door somewhat rusty.

As expected, there was no one inside.

"Where did they all go?"

Lucid murmured to himself, and then wandered around the resident.

In his seat, Lucid found a brand-new sheriff's uniform and a note on the uniform.

There was a scribbled line on the note:

"Put on your uniform and rush to the dock area."

...

After a while, Lucid, dressed as a sheriff, blushed and walked out of the bathroom.

After hurriedly boarding the carriage at the door, he set off in the direction of the dock area in a familiar way.

After showing her identity certificate engraved with "The Seventh Team of the Special Operations Department of the Ruen Kingdom Ahowa County Public Security Department", she successfully passed Luca and entered the devastated Southern District.

Then continue to drive towards the dock area.

...

Coming to the river again~lightnovelpub.net~ she finally saw Monaghan with a black face.

Seeing "Shilin" in a sheriff's attire, his eyes lit up first, and then as if thinking of something, he darkened his face again, pointed in the direction of the other side, and faintly commanded:

"You go to Morris and work with her on the task."

...

Lucid, who had a guilty conscience, did not dare to refute, and immediately walked to the other side, looking for Morris.

Walking up the river, after a short while, she finally found Morris.

There are more and more boats moored by the river, and there is even a feeling of "dense".

Morris was arguing with a group of people, looking a little bit burnt.

Seeing Lucid's arrival, he pulled her aside like an amnesty, leaned to her ear and whispered:
