等我醒來時，還趴在桌子上，桌前放著舊時代的油燈，早已經不知道在什麼時候熄滅了，風吹的窗戶吱嘎作響，可能再用力一吹就要整片飛走了，我看了錶上時間———是凌晨四點，鬣狗站在窗邊，他盯著我然後點點頭67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqy8NsjpRI
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdVVb93kAT9
「一個夜行者跟一個日行者最佳的行動時間點也許只有這一刻，但再過幾個鐘頭可能就要換我累了。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIn2l0g5bwc
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqP4CsowXw3
「我知道，這也許是好事，我們可以互相警戒。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkMUIQg7AjX
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbnHKmFtDMw
我穿上裝甲，配附外掛充電器、確認子彈跟武器等等……等準備好了之後，我拍了拍鬣狗的肩膀67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwyD4U2jvRt
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrebtpLwiwB
「我好了，接下來呢？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxom7S5tv8q
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6tAIcqYzmj
「我們直接問問櫃檯的人吧，也許他知道些關於『遊俠』的事情。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6X3aXzKAu2
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCVNtff6Yhi
下了樓，樓梯的吱嘎聲讓櫃檯打盹的老頭緩緩轉頭往我們這邊看過來67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡybVb9YXpai
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcZQWHWVQc
「咳咳…有需要幫忙的嗎？……」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPLN25w8I5
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhjNM5VsaPf
「老先生，你有聽過『遊俠』這號人物嗎？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBgO6cmixwj
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvoGd3qOcJq
「啊！咳咳……你們是…朝聖者嗎？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGHfZcNTkwJ
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gLBEmvrKM
老頭打量著我們的服裝，顯得有點訝異67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡweHevpiDGj
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzLPRuSoKs
「沒錯，我們在找尋正確通往『稀望教堂』的捷徑，你知道些什麼嗎？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZRD1RRpNsu
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeCTNdGrPDm
「咳咳…『朝聖之路狂沙漫漫、黃衣之王虎視眈眈』捷徑是有…..但並不會更輕鬆……咳咳…相反的，有更多人犧牲在捷徑的路上…前陣子，也有一夥四人小隊前往朝聖，我想……他們不會再回來了……」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTIAY2zK6sF
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtD2KGpxgk
「他們…死了？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8USshMkbI
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WbMqzDbJU
我問道，同時把目光投向老者顫抖的雙手67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDipSPJEOx
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0g5YH2wvLq
「我不知道……但如果他們真的通過了試煉而變得強大…咳咳…又怎麼會回來看著這滿目瘡痍呢？沒有理由……畢竟這裡已經沒救了。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwEB9leO0M0
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHJIy6bAfXN
老人嘆了口氣，他垂下頭，乾的發白的嘴唇抖動了一下67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKzQABUapB6
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyrohFrIajR
「你願意告訴我們從哪走嗎？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cK7BIMcP2
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTh8U4pugj
鬣狗希望能有更詳細的資訊67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcL8H4dZOE
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9IM8UeLAFN
「過了我們城牆靠北的管制點…咳咳…那個墓碑形狀的護城大橋，如果你們被擋下來了⋯⋯告訴他們你是黃衣之王的信徒……咳咳……來吧，手伸出來。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJUAqjs9AN
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2leWfhq81
老人接過鬣狗的手，突然從腰間抽出一把小刀插入他的手掌然後快速的亂劃一通67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMtFeZqdQVn
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyveMBXXlLy
「啊！幹！」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9g6RCo156p
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3AYcwYyf18
「你瘋了嗎？！給我住手！」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ50LcbJ8gaq
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhG5Li889wB
我拿著槍抵住了老頭的腦袋，而鬣狗則痛苦的壓住自己的傷口，鮮血不斷從指縫中滴下來67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpZPu0hxp0
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNF5rx3ARsR
「嘿！要過那道關卡……咳咳…你必須要有印記，我在幫助你們……否則你們是不會被放行的。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ32e6kHcvSv
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVeTV48EaGf
「你再輕舉妄動我就要開槍了！」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa8ieLhEFbM
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDl6KEbPjhc
老頭依然慢條斯理的站起身，正對著我們展開雙臂67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPNbkvNeCcf
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhDj9EC2nzV
「咳咳……如果是真的朝聖者，他必定願意承擔此等痛楚…咳咳咳… 很簡單，你真的有心要尋找教堂嗎？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdAJ62d6ywV
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvw83DaHfo0
「我要可是……」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfW5Tb6WZ7
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV1awG3DVCh
「賽博，聽他的……」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQIUtj3cbU
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgMq0uvieFr
鬣狗打開他的手掌，裡頭確實有類似符號的傷口，綻開的傷痕仍在滲血，這畫面怵目心驚67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKO0z8pV54l
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkbMZMeHrXe
「伸手吧，我只是想幫你們…咳咳…」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZerQT22wI8
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvO7dAmEI2k
「……………」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRAkLQ5B2Vn
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWFERRHUZVk
我看見老人用比剛才還用力的力道刺入我的掌心，輕微像是電擊一般的觸感後，卻只有劃開一道毫無感覺的皮層，裡頭的也不是血，而是銀質的液體緩緩流出，可以看到那傷口正在迅速的癒合67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LAc0jDCnF
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq4lbFQYShY
「你…咳咳…我見過你…？」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC9R3tc8520
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCbPrGlH9o
老人瞇著眼看著我67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDdm4YZUCI
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1ZnDpP0KK
「我也不知道。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOwH2yKZcL
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0f8WjktUzW
鬣狗靜靜的看著這一切，片刻後確定我的傷口形成印記後才開口67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsYkcbH9l3
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Ua1l7tK2w
「我的手現在沒辦法開車，而且我覺得有點想睡覺了，你幫我個忙，讓我在車子裡待一會。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2lkpw1Isdx
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvlJKoQkuuX
我點點頭，主副駕切換，我看著遠方高聳浮誇的城牆以及那座醒目高聳的墓碑狀橋樑，它就這樣豎立著像是某個巨人的墳墓，沒錯，我得直直往那裡看過去67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBFtuahyUW3
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4ea5eQWZt
「鬣狗，坐穩了，我不是個好駕駛唷！」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT21Ko9vAR6
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDO2zGxiEhW
我扣上安全帶，看著所剩不多的電量說道67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡft9JiWRqMY
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhySJT5dc0Z
「自由發揮…我先睡了。」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXMggkWJOW
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJm8DxekiwA
他不久後便沈沈睡去，我則看著刺眼的陽光照射進滿是沙塵的玻璃窗上，任憑那光亮反射在我的身上，黃色、金色、象牙色，一切都在黃沙與金光的映照下顯得荒涼、熾熱67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDl5VIzSWee
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx7jligIc6C
「朝聖之路狂沙漫漫，黃衣之王虎視眈眈…」67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEovAhBO1wA
67Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLFYwGiJWxV
我念念有詞，看著這惡劣而陌生的環境，內心也變得不踏實起來，我有種感覺，自己曾經就在這條路上行駛過，尤其經過每個斷掉的巨型雕像、或者風蝕得厲害的路標時，那種既視感格外強烈
「鬣狗，你這麼拼命的找尋真相，真的只是因為老闆交代這麼簡單嗎？」
我喃喃道，既使我知道熟睡的他根本不會回應我，行駛過的痕跡揚起陣陣風沙，在那未知的領域必定有著我們不得而知的凶險存在
