1112 Luo Lan Tavern

Raymond pushed open the ironwood door dyed golden, and the oncoming heat and noise were decadent.

The unique sunken wine hall was almost full, and the magic lights of various colors hanging from the ceiling also made the environment dark and very stylish.

The barmaids in cool clothes shuttled through the hall with trays, and from time to time they would make angry noises or curse because their thighs or buttocks were touched. The fierce ones would even pour the wine in the tray directly on the heads and faces of these guys, in exchange for cheers from all around.

But after a whole night, there were more drinkers lying on the table and leaning on the ground, and the waiters who seemed to be respectful but had sharp eyes kept patrolling as if they were maintaining order.

What surprised Raymond was that there were not only ordinary humans, mercenaries with weapons, but also a small number of low-level wizards here, but everyone was sitting together, and the natural identity differences between them seemed to be diluted, which was completely different from ordinary wine.

After entering the Luolan Tavern and taking a quick look, Raymond tightened his wizard robe without waiting for the receptionist to come over. After bypassing the receptionist, he turned to the unnoticed corner on the side of the bartender, lifted the partition of the bar and went inside. He soon found a secret door that seemed to lead to the cellar.

The secret door in front of a huge wine cabinet had a copper handle that was polished to a shine, and a faint energy glow was also flickering on the secret door, but Raymond, who stood directly behind the secret door, reached out and held a wine bottle on the wine cabinet, and infused a weak mana into it.

The purple-red wine bottle rippled with energy fluctuations, and then the huge wine cabinet that was originally tightly closed slowly moved back, revealing the downward sloping passage hidden behind the wine cabinet.

Enter the passage behind the wine cabinet and continue forward. After turning two corners, it seems to have entered the underground wine cellar of the Luolan Tavern.

Countless oak barrels, big or small, were neatly stacked. On the recliner at the end of the wine cellar facing the alley, there was an old woman sleeping soundly.

The rich aroma of wine mixed with the natural fragrance of the oak barrels made the wine cellar look normal. However, after Raymond entered the wine cellar, the old woman with her head tilted and wrapped in a blanket raised her head and muttered in a daze. "Are you here to get the wine..."

Raymond, who had already recorded Elliot's voice, immediately played the secret language. "Camphor leaves!"

The old woman squinted her eyes and looked at Raymond, then lay down again, and made a somewhat piercing laugh. "It seems that the mission has been completed! Not bad, not bad, it seems that the promotion of level is just around the corner..."

Ignoring the old woman's ridicule, Raymond, who walked to the end of the wine cellar, turned to the right passage before approaching the old woman and continued to play Elliot's voice. "Is Vice President Frank in there?"

But the old woman wrapped the blanket tighter. She explained to herself. "Little Elliot, remember not to provoke the guardian fire dog after entering. That beast has been a little abnormal recently..."

Raymond paused and nodded, then continued to walk to the end of the passage. After triggering the secret force field barrier hidden between the barrels. He entered and came to an area that went straight down like a deep well, and continued to go down along the steps less than half a meter wide protruding from the wall.

Bursts of cold air gushed out from below. In the extremely silent environment, there was only the sound of Raymond's footsteps.

After about a hundred meters down. He vaguely saw a cave hidden in the wall below. Raymond, who knew that this was where the guardian fire dog was, was a little embarrassed.

The sense of smell of this kind of low-level magic beast is not ordinary. They can clearly distinguish tens of thousands of smells and remember the different body odors of thousands of people. They can't just wrap their bodies with wizard robes and cover their faces with a scarf to get away with it.

Therefore, Raymond slowed down his descent. When he approached the cave guarding the fire dog, he simply stepped into the air and fell straight down.

The distance of more than ten meters was reached in an instant, but a black shadow jumped out of the cave above the steps like lightning, and came straight to him silently!

Raymond, who was stunned, released the protective force field at the moment when the black shadow was about to attack him. Only a muffled sound was heard, and the black shadow that hit the force field and was bounced off rolled and hit the steps, which made him see the whole picture of the black shadow clearly.

The beast was only the size of a palm. Its body was pitch black, but its face was covered by thick hair. Only its two pairs of sharp teeth were shining green, and a strong fishy smell came to his face.

"Soul-eating beast? How is it possible!"

Raymond, who immediately identified the species of the beast, was stunned.

After adulthood, the Soul-eating beast was as powerful as a first-level wizard, but it had the ability to penetrate the force field protection. Wizards of the same level would not be able to survive after encountering it!

It was small in size but extremely fast. As long as wizards had not yet been promoted to the second-level wizard realm, they could not resist its toxic corrosion and force field penetration ability. Moreover, in this small space, there was no possibility of dodging. If Elliot really encountered such a treatment, death on the spot would be the only outcome!

Thinking of this, Raymond, who had a bad premonition in his heart, no longer hesitated and continuously attacked the Soul-Eating Beast that had been attacking him. Although it was constantly bounced away by the force field protection on his body surface, it was still attacking from all directions.

His left hand stretched out like lightning, and the Soul-Eating Beast that attacked Raymond's lower abdomen wanted to change direction in mid-air, but the tentacles of his left hand, which were blooming like anemone flowers, formed a large net in an instant, and immediately tied up the Soul-Eating Beast tightly.

And then Raymond moved his mind and stuffed the Soul-Eating Beast into the storage ring with the magic beetle, and then accelerated the speed and fell rapidly.

Everything in his sight became a little erratic, and the cold air around him became more and more dense and cold as he descended. After a dozen breaths, Raymond, who landed heavily, appeared at the bottom of the well and saw the dark golden force field barrier at the end of the steps.

Raymond walked over and pressed his hand. Countless fine lightning bolts were generated from the barrier and hit his right palm, causing the protective force field on his palm to shake slightly.

Raymond frowned and moved his palm away, feeling more confused. "The force field barrier that can only be broken by a second-level wizard is obviously not something that Elliot, the hunter, can break through. It seems that something must have gone wrong..."

Since it is possible that the current disguise has been discovered, Raymond kicked the dark golden force field barrier with a kick, but before entering, he released the barrier at the entrance of the passage to prevent the possibility of escape.

Sure enough, not long after he entered the passage, hunters appeared in front of him, but most of those who stayed at the headquarters of the Dark Wing Union were low-level wizards, and they were imprisoned by Raymond at the first sight and stayed where they were.

The only thing that gave him a headache was the Dark Wing Guild headquarters, which was located deep underground in the Luo Lan Tavern. Not only was the area it occupied quite large, like a huge maze, but there was also a shield in the passage to block the perception and exploration. Therefore, when Raymond found that he could not find the center in a short time with Elliot's memory, he began to block it comprehensively.

Every passage entrance was set up with barriers by Raymond. When he no longer hid his strength, these barriers released would take even a level 5 wizard a long time to break.

Therefore, when they could not escape, the hunters who kept rushing out to counterattack were in trouble.

Those with low strength were directly imprisoned and stayed in place, and wizards above level 2 would be hit mercilessly by him as long as they took action, either seriously injured or killed immediately.

It was just that there seemed to be some kind of communication method in the Dark Wing Union headquarters, so when he saw the hunters more than ten minutes later, they no longer resisted, but instead stood obediently on both sides of the passage, holding their hands high and waiting for Raymond's arrival...
