chapter 715. the dark corner of the past
"I remembered some of the past when I was a child." Claymont felt his throat become a little dry, and after raising a glass of water, he answered.
Ebel recalled the words that Claymont kept saying in his mouth that day, and asked hesitantly: "Is it related to your father?"
Perhaps speaking out is the best thing. In Claymont's eyes, Eble is a good listening object.
Under the quiet moonlit night, Claymont talked to Ebel about his experience of being abused by his father when he was a child.
As the last sentence of the story came to an end, Ebel stared quietly at Claymont's side face.
Even though the surroundings were dark, Ebel could still see the sadness that Claymont showed on his face.
"So, where is your father now?" Eble asked hesitantly.
"Diet," Claymont sneered: "I didn't kill it. When I was twelve, he was killed by his debt-chasing enemies."
Ebul sat quietly and didn't know what to say.
"I had originally planned to forget this matter. But I remembered the past again because of the black elf's spell." Claymont shook his head and said in a casual tone: "It seems that the man left a deep impression on me."
After listening to what Claymont said, Eble remembered the impression he had been with Claymont for several days: he was silent most of the time, had strong movement, maintained a clear boundary with his superiors, and could take care of others.
In Claymont, he could not see any negative shadow.
When I think of how Claymont got rid of his dark childhood and grew into a decent officer without the help of others, I felt very sad when facing the inferiority complex that was emitting from him.
"Cremont, although I have known you for a short time, you are indeed one of the best colleagues I have ever met." Eblet paused and continued, "Don't hate yourself because of your father."
After hearing what Eble said, Claymont was silent for a while. He stood up and said to Eble, "Thank you, Eble." After that, he packed up his own dishes and left.
Eble stayed there and continued to chew the cold meal.
Tears do not represent vulnerability in all occasions.
DeWitt's injury recovered very quickly. After resting on the spot for about a day and a half, the reconnaissance team began the next journey.
It was noon when the soldiers set out, and the sun shone on everyone's shoulders.
"Captain Devite, are you really healthy? "A Carardia soldier walked to Devite and asked curiously.
"No problem." Devitt smiled and nodded, "It is not feasible to continue to be lazy under my guise."
"Haha, why can't we have been training in the military camp these days." The soldier smiled relaxedly: "But Captain Dwayte is really amazing. After suffering such severe injuries, he will be healed within two days."
"Didn't you see the medical soldiers guarding me all day and night? For them, I have to get well soon." Dewitt responded.
"You're really okay?" After the soldiers left, Claymont walked forward and said suspiciously.
"To be honest, it's still a bit reluctant." Devitt patted Claymont on the shoulder and stopped the other party's angry movement: "But it's still fine if you use it on the road."
"Remember to tell me in time if you feel uncomfortable in your body and don't endure it yourself." Claymont pursed his lips and spoke seriously.
"Okay, I promise you." Dwayte said clearly.
As we move forward all day, the plants on the roadside gradually change.
"It's coming closer to the valley soon." Eble said to the soldiers.
"Are we going to camp in the valley tonight?" Claymont discussed with Ebel.
"It should be. But you have to find a very hidden place." Eble nodded and said, "It is better to be a little farther away from the mountain road."
Claymont carefully considered the conditions Ebel mentioned, thinking about how to find a suitable place to camp.
When the scouts heard Eble's words, they began to talk.
Until the moon rose, the scouts still did not enter the plain. This distance was much further than imagined.
"How long will it take to get there?" Dewit asked Eble, who was leading the way forward.
"It's estimated... about an hour." Ebel responded.
The soldiers continued to trek forward.
As the sky was getting dark, Claymont suggested to Ebel with some confidence: "Otherwise, camp nearby tonight. If we continue, it will take us both physical energy and delay the correction time."
"Yeah." Eble nodded in favor after thinking for a while.
"Stop! Set up camp nearby!" Claymont ordered the soldiers.
The soldiers stopped immediately when they heard the order.
Everyone started to set up a tent together.
Devit was forced to stay by Ebel to wait.
In a boring situation, Dewit started around the place where the soldiers set up camp tents.
"Crazy."
Devit seemed to hear some sound, and stopped and listened carefully: he found that it was the sound of water flowing.
Dwitter immediately called several soldiers to go to the source of the sound with him to inspect the source of the sound.
Finally, a stream hidden in the mountains was discovered.
The soldiers who were walking with them were all very happy, but Dewit frowned.
We stopped everyone from salvaging Tamsui and took the soldiers back to the military camp.
He attracted Cramont and Ebel to discuss, "I think we should have found the wrong place to sleep."
"Why?" Eble asked.
"While I was patrolling around here just now, I discovered a live stream." Dewitt said.
Both of them heard the news and their faces sank.
The status of water sources on this island is simply as good as gold. According to Raphael, no river is not occupied by various races. When moving forward in the wild, you must avoid places with rivers. Where fresh water resources exist, there will be strong forces. This should be unquestionable.
Eble looked back at the soldiers who were still building the camp, and asked Dewit, "How far is that stream from here?"
"It's not very far, about fifteen minutes away." Dewitt replied.
"That's really a bit dangerous." Claymont said in a deep breath.
