If possible, Qin Lun really didn't want to participate in the battle between the exorcist and the witch. He hopes that he can always exist as a bystander, just like a camera, faithfully recording all events. Whether the exorcist succeeds or fails, it has nothing to do with him.
As for people like Frank and Catherine who were once used by him, Qin Lun only regarded them as temporary workers carrying cameras, they paid for their labor, and he paid some wages.
Frank helped him, so Qin Lun promised to let him get the source of life in the future. Catherine helped him, and he indirectly made the innkeeper's business start to improve.
If it weren't for the existence of the mission from another world, Qin Lun would shut up immediately and stop promoting the subsequent development of the incident. But as he said, there is no chance in the world, only necessity. Once the wheel of fate turns, even the camera has to become part of the whole event.
"Everyone, it has been three days and two nights since we entered the Maya forest, and we have been attacked by evil creatures twice. However, leaving aside the two victims who were attacked during the support last night, in fact The attacks are still within the tolerance range of our team, and they haven't completely defeated us, have they?" Qin Lun said with a light smile.
The tent fell silent, and the faces of the exorcists changed, and they fell into deep thought.
"Doctor Stan, please continue!" The seasoned Odo seemed to have thought of something, and gave Qin Lun an appreciative glance.
"If the attack of the magical creature on the first night was just a temptation, then the attack on the second night should be regarded as the witch driving the evil creature to confront us head-on!" Qin Lun said confidently, "Everyone please Thinking back, if it is a direct confrontation, does it mean that the Maiya witch has not yet had the power to completely defeat us so far!"
"This is just your guess. At least the Maya witch did not show up in the attack last night. Once the Maya witch commands the evil creatures on the spot, we will fall into a worse situation!" the bearded exorcist said in a deep voice .
Qin Lun glanced at the exorcist, but smiled and said nothing. Although the bearded man made a rebuttal, he could see that the experienced exorcist himself had the same doubts, and his original position of evacuating from the forest had been loosened.
"The Maia witch did not show up, perhaps because there is only one witch who is fighting us. She is afraid that we will be beheaded regardless of everything. And she does not have the cover of other companions, so she will easily fall into our siege!" It was as if he was talking to himself.
"Based on our past experience, a Maiya witch has at least two or three evil creatures, and at most no more than seven or eight." The beard pondered for a moment, and then retorted again, "We were at least attacked last night. With the siege of more than twenty evil creatures, normally, there should be three to five Maya witches!"
"Not to mention three to five Maya witches joining the battle, even if there are only two witches covering each other. We collapsed last night and we can't get back at all!" Ms. Nova's eyes flashed, and she said in a low voice, "This time we are By actively entering the Maya Forest, even if the Maya Witch kills all the exorcists, it will not be considered a violation of the Millennium Contract."
"Well, there is only one witch's point of view that can be accepted!" Another older exorcist leader nodded, "Perhaps our current witch is just a sentry sent by the Maya witch on the outskirts of the forest! In this case, It is indeed possible that other witches have specially enhanced her magical servants in order to monitor larger territories."
"If it's just a sentry witch in charge of monitoring, then why isn't she watching in secret, waiting for other witches to send reinforcements. It's so strange to send so many magical creatures to scare the enemy and try to drive us out... Isn't it strange?" Hu frowned slightly, his eyes flashed.
"unless… "
"Unless we are heading in the direction, the formation arrow is pointing to her lair, and the distance from us is not very far!" All the exorcists looked at each other with excitement on their faces, "She has no time to wait for other steps With the support of Witch Ya, we have no choice but to send out all the magical creatures to attack us, I hope we can get out of trouble!"
"That's why we encountered so many magical creatures, but didn't find a single witch participating in the battle." Bonnie slapped the low table and stood up abruptly.
"We were all wrong! From our point of view, the witches of Maia had been prepared for such a violent attack as soon as they entered the forest. But in the eyes of the witches of Maia, it was the first time that more than 20 exorcists entered together. The forest, how could it not be a big deal. Maybe that witch thought we were going after her, so she reacted so violently."
A meaningful smile appeared on Qin Lun's face, and he quietly exited the tent. The doctor understood the ensuing discussion and that he was no longer needed.
These exorcists are experienced, shrewd and sophisticated. The reason why they didn't figure out some doubts before is just that they fell into a misunderstanding of thinking. After all, not everyone is like him, who has intensively studied psychology, and is used to changing roles and thinking in other places.
Of course, even without Qin Lun's advice, given these exorcists some time, they would figure it out. It's just that at that time, they may have already withdrawn from the Maya forest, or delayed the best time to let the Maya witch get follow-up support.
Not long after Qin Lun came out, the leaders of the exorcists walked out of the tent one after another. It has to be said that the courage and wisdom of these exorcists are quite strong. Once the doubts were cleared up, a unity was reached in just over ten minutes, and their style was decisive without delay.
No wonder Odo said at the time that as long as they had the same mission goals, they didn't need any leader.
"Doctor Stan, everyone asked me to thank you for your timely reminder. Otherwise, I'm afraid all the exorcists here will be discredited when they realize it later." Odo found Qin Lun, bowed and saluted with a smile, "Now we have A new course of action was proposed, but..."
"You want me to go back to Albert Castle first?" Qin Lun's expression was a little weird.
"Well, after the magical creatures come into contact with the exorcist, they will send the image of the enemy back to the witch. We plan to make the three exorcist teams in the front deviate from the original direction of advance to divert those magical creatures away, and then Our team went directly to that witch's lair!"
Odo nodded and explained, "If our judgment is correct, the next battle will be fierce. Your current performance is enough to pass the rookie trial, and you don't need to take part in the battle again. What's more, those wounded will also need to fight on the way back. No one will question your courage because of your care!"
"Lord Odo, do you think that I have been following you all this time just to prove my courage?" Qin Lun said with a straight face and a stiff tone.
"You..." Odo frowned, and said in a deep voice, "Before entering the Maia Forest, Baron Albert told me that even if this mission fails, you must ensure your safety. You are currently the only one who can The doctor who cured the disease, you are the only one who cannot be sacrificed in this team!"
"Lord Odo, you don't understand!" Qin Lun sighed softly, "I didn't follow you to prove my courage, I have reasons to do so!"
"Oh? What's the reason?" Odo looked at Qin Lun suspiciously.
"The epidemic in the Odia area is no longer something I can cure alone. We must find out the root cause of the epidemic and prepare a large amount of antidote, otherwise it will be the same with or without me!" Qin Lun said seriously, "If the epidemic really It has something to do with the witch, only I can find out the root cause in her lair, and get the antidote formula based on the virus components. Without my medical knowledge, do you have this ability?"
"This..." Otto was finally speechless.
Even if they caught the witch, they might not be able to pry her mouth open, or bring her back to Albert Castle alive. Qin Lun's reason was very good. Not only could Odo not refuse the doctor to stay, but he had to let him go to the witch's lair with him.
After Odo discussed with the other exorcists again, the whole team immediately went into action. The three teams headed by Nova and Beard turned eastward and headed towards another direction of the Maija forest. Their task was to lure away the evil creatures that attacked the exorcist last night.
If the exorcist's current judgment does not deviate from the facts, everyone believes that the witch will continue to drive all evil creatures to harass and follow them, pretending to be powerful, until they leave the Maia forest.
If there is a deviation in this judgment, the witches are not strong outsiders, but are really trying to encircle them, or ignore the exorcist team. Then Nova and the others will immediately send a signal to inform Odo to evacuate the Maiya Forest.
As for the team led by Odo and Bonnie, because they had never met magical creatures, the witches didn't know their existence, so they were given the task of finding the witch's lair. Of course, Nova and the others will not leave too far away, and the two groups will keep a distance of about half a day, just in case.
The last part of the exorcists consisted of the wounded. In addition to the five seriously wounded, there were also two exorcists who were originally members of the guard. They would transport the remains of the dead and the seriously wounded in a carriage, withdraw from the forest, and return to Albert Castle.
…
"Doctor Stan, among the five of us, only Lord Odo and Lord Bonnie are capable of fighting. After finding the witch's lair, can we defeat the witch?" Bligh, the youngest in the team, asked in a low voice with a sad face and lack of confidence.
"Hehe, don't worry, little guy! I don't think our small team's fighting ability is very bad!" Qin Lun smiled and touched Bligh's head, his eyes fell on a certain carriage, and he narrowed his eyes slightly.
