Chapter 318 Transaction
If there is anyone who has a bigger headache than Lin Li among the people present, then it is probably Senna... Thinking of those thousands of skeleton warriors, Senna couldn't help but feel his legs weaken. If he could, He really wanted to leave this hellish place immediately, as far away from those damn undead creatures as possible. Unfortunately, Senna knew very well that not only could he not leave now, but he had to lead his men deeper into the ghastly ruins. How could I have already received Miss Ivan's money... That was a deposit of 50,000 gold coins. With such a large amount of money, I could already hire the best adventurers in Roland City. During the business, I was secretly happy for a while, thinking that this was a piece of cake in the sky. A simple task could actually earn such a large amount of money.
Now Sena knows that what falls from the sky is not necessarily a pie... Whether he can receive the remaining 150,000 gold coins or not is secondarily, whether he and his more than 30 adventurers can return to Roland City alive. This is the most important thing to consider at the moment. Damn it, there are so many undead creatures hiding in the ruins of Xiaya Town. Just relying on myself and the more than 30 adventurers under me, if I want to save people from inside, I'm afraid it will be... It's even harder than climbing to the sky.
Senna has already seen the power of those skeleton warriors just now. It is no exaggeration to say that except for being slightly inferior in flexibility, they are almost comparable to the regular army of Roland City. Thousands of skeleton warriors, that is, There are thousands of soldiers and thirty adventurers fighting against them. What's the difference between an egg and a stone?
Senna looked at the clock tower in the distance, and then at the city lord's daughter who was looking at him eagerly. For a moment, he just felt that his head was extremely big. It would definitely be impossible to break in. There was no telling what terrifying monsters were waiting inside. As for me, it is even more impossible to abandon the mission and run away. I have received the deposit from Miss Ivan. This is clearly written in black and white in the mission file of the Roland City Adventurers Guild. If I dare to do this, I will be taking risks. This industry can be considered done, and I can never think of receiving a copper-plate task again.
"Mr. Jason..." After thinking about it, Senna had to cast a look at Jason for help: "Can you take a step to speak?"
In fact, Senna can only ask Jason for help at this time. There are a total of thirty-six living people outside the ruins of Char Town, and Senna accounts for thirty-five of them. But when it comes to real strength, they are far less than Jason and the other five, not to mention Jason himself, Doland's most popular adventurer, a warrior with strength up to level 15, plus his two companions who are also level 15, looking at the entire light In Fengping Plain, such a powerful team is rare. Moreover, among these five people, there is also the unpredictable Novel, who is a real strong man who can tear apart the body of Ice Howl with his bare hands. In Senna's view, this Nofeile's strength is probably far superior to that of Jie Sen. If he can get their help, he may still have some chances in this mission.
As for whether his request for help will drag them into danger, Senna can no longer care so much. He has been pushed to the edge of the cliff, so how can he care whether he drags others down?
"This..." Jason looked around, then at his employer in the distance, and then nodded awkwardly: "Okay..."
They had just experienced a big battle, and everyone was so busy with their own things that no one noticed. Jason and Sena quietly left the crowd and made a small deal next to the decaying waterwheel... ........."You let me think about it......"
"Okay, okay..." Senna's voice was full of anxiety and uneasiness.
Jason frowned, weighing the pros and cons repeatedly.
To be honest, the conditions offered by Senna are indeed quite generous. The reward of 100,000 gold coins is in exchange for the help of himself and his companions on this mission. Moreover, the reward of 100,000 gold coins is paid on the spot. Even if the final mission cannot be completed, he will not I need to return a copper plate to him. The most important thing is that Sena just promised with patting his chest. If he encounters any unforeseen danger during the mission, he can take his companions away first without taking into account Senna and him. 's subordinates.
Such a condition is almost equivalent to giving one hundred thousand gold coins to himself, and he has no reason to refuse.
Jason hesitated for a moment and made up his mind, but he still left himself some room and did not say anything on the spot: "Well, Mr. Senna, you know, our team is really The one who makes the decision is Magician Fei Lei. I will tell him what you mean later. As for whether Magic Magic Fei Lei is willing to agree, I dare not guarantee..."
"Of course, of course, as long as Mr. Jason is willing to help and speak, our mercenary group will be grateful." Senna said words of gratitude, but he couldn't help but cursed in his heart, damn, Jason is such a bastard You're so hypocritical. You still said "The real decision-maker in our team is Magician Ferey". You're just fucking lying. You're just as timid as Magician Ferey. Why should you be commanding you? These wolf-like adventurers? Besides, that guy has been hiding in the tent all day, and he looks like a guy with little adventure experience. He is said to be your employer. You, Jason, don't have the final say on what you should and shouldn't do along the way? It’s okay to use this kind of words to deceive others, just pretend to be shit in front of me, Senna... After Jason returned to the camp with a nonchalant expression, he quickly found Lin Li who was meditating: "Fei Lei Magician, there is something I want to discuss with you."
"What's up?"
"That's it, Magician Ferre, Captain Sena just told me that they will enter the ruins in half an hour, hoping to rescue Miss Ivan's brother quickly. I thought about it, since there is a A team of more than thirty adventurers will cover you, why don’t we take this opportunity to go in together? With their help then, wouldn’t it be much easier to do whatever you want to do?”
"Really..." Lin Li glanced at Jason, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes. To be honest, even if Jason didn't mention it, Lin Li actually planned to follow the mercenary group into the ruins of Xiaya Town. He He has even thought about it. If possible, he should try to give them some help. After all, he will have to deal with the Lord of Roland City in the future. If he sees his daughter having trouble here, wouldn't it be embarrassing to meet her in the future?
However, this does not mean that Lin Li can allow Jason to agree for him.
Just now, Jason and Senna left the camp one after another, thinking that they were unaware of the ghost. Unfortunately, Jason had no idea that when a magician enters a meditative state, his senses will suddenly become extremely sensitive, especially It is a monster like Lin Li who is born with abnormal mental power. Once he enters the meditative state, his extremely powerful mental power will completely replace his senses. In other words, Lin Li in the meditative state uses his mental power to perceive the world. In this state, Lin Li was almost omniscient. He could even hear the roar of the monsters echoing on the Dragon Mountains, and the chanting of spells coming from the bell tower in the distance. Jason and Senna's little trick was almost like a piece of cake. Lin Li heard the same thing... It seems that he has been so talkative these days that Jason regards himself as a soft persimmon that can be rounded and flattened at will. It is also unreasonable to decide to go with Senna's mercenary group without permission. Forget it, now he actually exchanged his own safety for a reward of 100,000 gold coins. This kind of thing has always been intolerable to Lin Li. The reason why he didn't have an attack on the spot was just because it wasn't time to have an attack. But at another time and place, it would be better. It is necessary to have a good talk with Jason... "It's not impossible to go in with them, but Jason, there is one thing I must remind you. As far as I know, there are some very dangerous things hidden in the ruins of Char Town. , if you devote too much attention to taking care of your colleagues, it may be difficult to ensure your own safety..."
"Okay, Magician Ferre, I will be careful myself."
After getting Lin Li's consent, Jason felt relieved. With one hundred thousand gold coins in hand, he didn't care whether it was dangerous or not. In Jason's opinion, the most dangerous thing in this ruins could only be the previous one. Those thousands of skeleton warriors, although he didn't know when they would appear again, Jason was not afraid. He had already fought with them once, and he knew very well that even if he couldn't do it with his own strength, Eliminating them all would at least guarantee a safe escape. Anyway, Senna had promised that if there was any danger, he and his companions could leave first.
"Well, you go tell Senna and we'll set off in half an hour."
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye. After a short rest, the mercenary group set foot on the long and ghostly street.
It's a bit strange to say that I haven't encountered even an undead creature after walking along the way for almost ten minutes. The ruins of Xiaya Town, which I originally imagined to be full of dangers, are surprisingly quiet, except for the thick putrid odor that still suffuses me. People can't breathe, and everything is the same as outside the ruins, so that Senna can't help but wonder if it's because the previous battle has attracted all the undead creatures in the ruins of Char Town, so he can't even connect now. Can't find one.
When thinking of this, Senna couldn't help but secretly regretted it. If he had known this, he shouldn't have asked Jason for help. Now that he has given away 100,000 gold coins, he still owes a huge favor. The most terrible thing is, if he can really If Master Sin'dorei is successfully rescued, most of the credit will probably go to Jason and the others... But soon, Senna's mood changed from regret to joy.
A group of more than thirty people walked through the long street. When the Xiaya Town Square was in front of them, a crumbling house suddenly heard a sound of "squeaking", followed by a thick smell. A thick putrid odor filled the air, and before Senna could understand what was going on, Jason shouted loudly next to him, and then he saw the rune-gold sword turning into a dazzling light..." Wow!"
The sword light containing powerful fighting spirit tore open the door in an instant. Before anyone had time to react, a black mist rose into the sky, followed by a sharp and harsh whistling sound.
"Oh my god..." Senna covered his mouth tightly, his eyes filled with disbelief. Through the dazzling sword light and the diffuse mist, Sena clearly saw a huge bat rising into the sky. The hazy body seemed to be condensed by smoke. The long fangs and blood-red eyes exuded a terrifying aura in the darkness.
Jason tightened the rune-gold sword in his hand and stared at the monster in front of him with his eyes. Jason knew that this was a real vampire, an undead creature up to level 15. They were born darkness walkers. , once they sneak into the darkness, even the most skilled thieves may not be able to find their traces.
Thinking of this, Jason suddenly felt a chill in his vest. Fortunately, he heard the sound... If the sound hadn't happened to come out, the consequences would have been unimaginable. If a vampire was allowed to attack from the darkness, even sixteen Even the strong ones at level 7 may not be safe.
Of course, now it's a different story.
Vampires who have left the darkness are like fish out of water, losing their natural cover. Their power is not much stronger than ordinary undead creatures. They are all at level 15, and they hold rune gold. With the long sword, killing it is just a matter of time.
"Unfortunately, you are unlucky." A confident smile appeared on Jason's lips, and at the same time, the rune-gold sword once again set off a dazzling light.
"This Jason is too careless..." At this time, Lin Li did not care about the battle that was already destined to end. He just glanced at the house that was almost knocked down by Jason's sword and hesitated for a moment. , and called Nofeile over in a low voice: "Nofel, go and help him solve the remaining troubles."
"yes."
"By the way, Nophele..." The high-level vampire was about to leave, but Lin Li suddenly remembered something: "They... they are your kind, right?"
"No, their bloodline is not pure, they are just descendants." After two rare explanations, Nofeile turned into a ball of black smoke and disappeared from Lin Li's eyes.
Jason's estimate was indeed correct. Vampires who lost the protection of darkness were not much more powerful than ordinary undead creatures. Especially under the sacred light of the priest, their power was suppressed to the limit. Jason was holding a rune fine gold sword. , waving his fighting spirit unscrupulously, and the wretched thief hiding in the darkness was like a poisonous snake, launching fatal blows from the darkness from time to time. In just a moment, a vampire as high as fifteen levels fell to the ground. Under the continuous attacks of the three people.
"Awesome, Mr. Jason is indeed the most powerful adventurer in Dorland..." Jason tore the vampire's body apart with a sword, and Sena next to him quickly offered flattery.
Everyone loves to hear flattery, and Jason is no exception. Listening to Senna's explicit compliment, Jason couldn't help but smile, but he still said a few hypocritical words: "Mr. Senna is so complimentary. , I just have a little better luck..."
"Haha, Mr. Jason is so humble."
The two were singing together when a slight noise suddenly came from the house. Jason looked back in horror and saw blood splattering... Then, he saw Novel in a black cloak slowly slowly walked out of the house.
Jason's face became paler and whiter, and in the end, almost his entire back was wet with cold sweat, because he clearly saw two corpses lying behind Nofile. They were also bodies that seemed to be condensed by black smoke. It was long fangs and blood-red eyes... When this scene fell into his eyes, Jason naturally understood everything.
No wonder it all happened by coincidence. It turned out that this was an arranged trap. One vampire deliberately made a noise to attract his attention, while the other two were lurking in the darkness. Just waiting for him to get into a fight, they would emerge from the darkness. A fatal blow.
Thinking about it just now, if Novel hadn't taken action in time, he would have been sucked into a mummy by three vampires. It's ridiculous that he still blamed all this on luck... "Thank you... thank you, Mr. Nofel."
Jason said his thanks several times with a pale face, but Novel seemed not to hear him at all. He wiped the blood on his nails expressionlessly and silently walked back behind Lin Li.
Jason didn't mind Nuofele's indifference very much. He just smiled and put the embarrassment behind him. Anyway, Nuofele has always been like this along the way. In Jason's opinion, , This is what a strong man like Nofele should be like, tearing apart Binghou's body with his bare hands and killing two vampires in an instant. With such strength, no matter how proud or indifferent he is, it will not be too much, because people do have pride. and indifferent capital.
What else? Do we still want to be like that useless employer, smiling all day long, like a businessman in a grocery store?
The attack by the three vampires was just a small interlude. After successfully dealing with them, a group of more than 30 people arrived at the square of Chara Town smoothly.
The eerie bell tower is at the other end of the square. Looking forward from where everyone is now, they can clearly see a thick black mist, covering the entire bell tower airtightly.
"What a powerful breath of death..." Lin Li stood far away opposite the bell tower, his brows furrowed involuntarily. The heavy breath of death made him feel a little breathless. In Lin Li's view, this breath of death The power of the aura has even surpassed that of the Corpse Witch he met in Shadow Valley.
Just when Lin Li was secretly frightened, he suddenly heard a hoarse voice coming from the bell tower. The voice was not very loud, but it was enough for everyone present to hear clearly.
"Welcome, guests from afar!"
