Chapter 197 Value
Herag then dripped his own blood into the master's position, and the master-servant contract was formally established.
"What's your name?" Herag asked.
Asuna was a little confused and answered, "Asuna."
She didn't know what to do in the future. Now that she had signed the master-servant contract, her life and death were in the hands of the black-haired man in front of her.
"My name is Herag. Wait here for a while. I'll study your talent problem when I go back."
Herag jumped onto a tree and looked at the movement around him.
At the same time, pay attention to the bracelet and wait for Parker's next instructions.
The wizards in Base 27 are at least first-level formal wizards.
And the strongest of these adventurers is only third-level wizard apprentices.
The gap in strength between the two sides is too large.
If Base 27 was not for the purpose of wiping out all these adventurers, it would not have made such a big move.
Any person sent out at random can kill all these people.
The only problem is that one person cannot guarantee that there will be no fish that slip through the net.
As long as one person escapes, it will be a hidden danger to Base 27.
Under Parker's deployment, these adventurers have no chance of survival at all.
The moment they stepped into the Lim Mountains, if they did not leave before sunset, they would be doomed to never return.
After sunset, no new adventurers would come, which was a good time to take action.
All they had to do was to deal with all the adventurers who entered the Lim Mountains.
Ordinary adventurers were killed directly, and only spellcasters could survive.
In addition to plundering resources, the wizard plane would also learn a lot from the elf plane when invading the elf plane.
Although the power system of these spellcasters looked similar to that of the wizard plane, there were still many differences.
For example, they did not need potions to be promoted to formal wizards.
These were issues that the wizard plane needed to study and learn.
So spellcasters generally survived, and their value was worth studying.
Asuna looked at the direction where Sadie and the other two left, with a worried look on her face.
She had now completely calmed down, and after thinking about it, she suddenly realized that Sadie and the other two were likely to be in danger.
Herag signed a master-servant contract with her, so she should not have to worry about her life in the short term.
Asuna noticed what Herag was waiting for, and also felt the various magical fluctuations from all around.
"So many powerful spellcasters..." Asuna's face was ashen.
Judging from the magical fluctuations around, there are many powerful official spellcasters in the Lim Mountains.
She didn't know where Herag and his men came from, and which force they belonged to.
But from the current situation, it can be analyzed that Herag's force must have something important to do hidden in the Lim Mountains.
The previously missing patrol team must have died in the hands of these people.
And after this group of adventurers entered the Lim Mountains, Herag and his men must have caught all of them.
Asuna guessed that it was because of her special talent that Herag temporarily moved her mind and signed a master-servant contract with her to keep herself alive temporarily.
But Sadie and the other two were not so lucky.
Why didn't Herag care if they left?
After thinking for a while, Asuna came to the conclusion that Sadie and the other two could not escape at all, and even if they left, they would die.
Herag knew that they were doomed to die, so it didn't matter whether he kept them or not.
When Asuna thought of this, she became anxious.
She glanced at Herag sitting on the branch and said slowly: "My lord, can you save Sadie and the others?"
"Shadi? Oh, it's your companion, right?" Herag was puzzled for a moment and then understood.
Asuna knelt on the ground and cried: "My lord, please save them!"
Herag smiled, jumped down from the tree, squatted beside Asuna, and lifted Asuna's chin with his hand, making her raise her head.
"You have to know that you can survive because you are worth surviving. And your three companions are worthless to us. From the moment they stepped into the mountains, they were destined to die."
"I didn't do it myself, which is the greatest kindness. I didn't let your friends die in front of you."
"Besides, I don't have the ability to save them."
When Herag was preparing to keep Asuna, he had no intention of killing Sadie and the other two.
Because at that time he was ready to keep Asuna, the spellcaster, and study her carefully.
And Sadie and the other two obviously had a good relationship with Asuna.
If Herag had killed the three people directly at that time, it would have left a hurdle in Asuna's heart that she could never cross.
That would have brought him a lot of trouble.
He just wanted to keep Asuna for study. If Asuna didn't cooperate, he would have to work harder.
Sadie and the other two would die anyway, the only difference was whether they died in his hands.
Herag would rather have a servant who could really obey him completely, rather than a servant who wanted to seek revenge on him all day.
Sadie and the other three, letting them go would not make him lose anything.
"Woo..."
After listening to Herag, Asuna collapsed on the ground powerlessly, covering her face and crying.
This feeling of knowing that her friends would die but being powerless made her feel more desperate than ever.
At this moment, she suddenly felt that it would be better to die with Sadie and the other three than to live like this.
Herag immediately noticed her abnormal mood and said coldly: "Suicide or self-mutilation, as well as any behavior that hurts yourself, are not allowed."
Asuna's hand holding the dagger paused, and she looked up at Herag with tears on her face.
Because the master-servant contract has a mandatory effect, Asuna's hand almost stabbed the dagger back by herself.
Asuna can't die now, Herag still has her useful.
If Asuna commits suicide, wouldn't it be a waste of effort?
Asuna's heart was filled with infinite regret, regretting that she shouldn't have accepted this task.
If she didn't accept this task, Sadie and the others wouldn't have died because of this task.
And her younger brother at home, it seems that she can never go back, and she doesn't know what will happen to him in the future.
She also regretted that she shouldn't have let Sadie and the others leave.
At that time, she thought she would be safe if she left, but who would have thought that there were so many powerful spellcasters in the Lim Mountains.
Asuna attributed all the mistakes to herself. She was the captain of this adventure team and had to be responsible for others.
After Herag gave the order not to commit suicide, he ignored Asuna and paid attention to the movements around him.
There were many magical fluctuations just now, but now they have gradually subsided. It seems that everything has been resolved.
It is too easy for a formal wizard to deal with these knights and wizard apprentices. It doesn't take much effort.
The ring on Herag's hand flashed blue light, and Parker's voice came from it: "If everything is resolved, clean up the traces at the scene and then rush back to the base immediately."
