Details agree with this suggestion. Although the Rain Fog Forest is a huge treasury, these low-level mercenaries can only mingle on the periphery of the forest, with dangerous five-star monsters and even deadly six-stars deep in it. Moreover, they do not have the capital to compete for resources with first-class mercenaries, and can only rely on meager profits to maintain this organization... Since that is the case, why not go to the Kato Empire?

Other mercenaries also realized that it was too difficult to develop in the Principality of Light Pan, but they were all locals and it felt uncomfortable to leave their hometown.

"It doesn't matter. Anyway, my little devil has grown up, as long as there are monsters to slaughter me." Oli said decisively.

"This..." The others of Tulip hesitated. Many of them were new to him. They did not know Rick. The group leader's decision almost pressed the future of Tulip on this young man, so they were a little hesitant.

"This is a big deal, everyone can think about it." Rick was not in a hurry to let Tulips move their positions. Before that, he had to ask the group leader Yin to select elite members and drive away all the cows and ghosts to avoid affecting the good customs of Vinton Town.

Tulip members nodded. This was a major event that affected their careers and had to be discussed with their families.

"Captain Xiang, I have something to ask for." Rick suddenly came to Xiang's ear and said mysteriously.

"Oh? Kyle said it just." Xiang was stunned and replied in a low voice.

"I suffered a lot of injuries in my previous mission and am not able to protect myself yet. So I want the leader of the group to choose some reliable brothers and accompany me to the depths of the rain forest." Rick looked at Xiang's eyes and said seriously.

"Go to the depths of the forest? That's very dangerous. If you encounter a six-star monster, you'll be done." Qing knew Tulip's strength very well. But he knew that Rick's request would be indescribable. "Can you ask His Highness Jim for help?"

Rick shook his head gently, "You can't let Jim know about this, please make sure to keep it a secret for me."

After pondering for a while, looking at Rick's extremely firm gaze, he finally decided, "Okay, what are you going to do?"

"Look for someone." Rick said in his heart: "Alan, I hope your prophecy can help me."

Rick claimed to be Jim's personal guards. So he could not leave the sight of the envoys of the Kato Empire for too long, so Qing immediately picked out more than a dozen best mercenaries. They may not be very strong, but their life-saving ability is absolutely first-class, and they can still take Rick to escape at critical moments.

Without further ado, the elite tulips marched into the depths of the rain and mist forest. Because Rick was the key object of protection, he was naturally surrounded by others in the center. Oli, who was not at ease with the leader, followed him personally and opened the way forward.

"Team leader. You won't encounter any danger, right?" Rick asked uneasy as he looked everyone nervous.

"The risk is quite high. But we have been here for so many years, and monsters below five-star can't threaten us." The details did not hide the truth, and directly pointed out the current situation.

There are basically no threatening monsters outside the Rain and Fog Forest, and the deeper they go, the more dangerous they are. Fortunately, the high-level monsters that occasionally run out have long been destroyed by a strong mercenary group, so ordinary mercenaries still have no threat to their lives when hunting outside the forest.

However, the vast rain forest is not only a treasure house of nature, but also a tomb of many adventurers. You should know that there are a large number of five-star monsters gathered in the deep forest, and there are also many rare six-star creatures. Don’t forget that the overlord who once lived in it was a real dragon, but it was later slaughtered by Jack, and Alan then refined it into a bone dragon.

"In order to facilitate the execution of missions in the forest, the mercenary group set an unwritten rule." Walking ahead, pointing to the path ahead, "opening a road leading to the interior. All mercenaries passing by have an obligation to eliminate the monsters along the way to ensure that there is no danger on this road."

Rick was delighted that it was indeed a bit difficult for the poor tulips to travel through the crisis-ridden rain forest. Fortunately, there was a shortcut to the depths of the forest before him, which could avoid many risks.

Sure enough, everyone walked forward for dozens of meters and did not even find a living monster. Occasionally, low-level monsters would watch Rick and others from afar on the tree, but although their IQ was not high, they had trained a new instinct for a long time, that is, not to approach the road to death.

Without the invasion of the monsters, Rick suddenly felt that it was much easier. He thought that the Tulip mercenaries would suffer a lot this time, but with this safe path, everyone would not encounter danger as long as they did not provoke dangerous monsters or deviate from the route.

This shortcut to the forest is the convenience obtained by all the mercenaries of the Principality of Light Ban, and no one is willing to let their previous efforts fail. So there is another unwritten rule, that is, no matter how much hatred the two sides have, they must leave honestly when they meet on this road, otherwise they will be jointly attacked by various mercenary groups.

So, the other mercenaries of the other groups of mercenaries just glanced at Rick and the others, and walked through the forest with expressionless faces, no one was willing to provoke anyone.

"It is good for us to jointly maintain a road to the depths of the forest. Those large mercenary groups will not worry that their prey will be snatched away by others?" Rick asked in confusion. The relationship between mercenary groups is very delicate, especially in this dangerous place. In many cases, the other party is either a friend or an enemy. This shortcut allows many small mercenary groups to penetrate into the forest, providing them with a lot of convenience. Is such a humanistic measure really proposed by those ambitious mercenary groups?

He smiled deeply, looked into the distance and said, "The high-level monsters deep in the forest are not something that ordinary people can deal with. If the mercenary groups with insufficient strength go, they will only be stuffed into teeth. Those large mercenary groups don't have to worry about someone sharing their share. Instead, there are so many idiots who are willing to sacrifice themselves for exploring the forest, which is only beneficial to them."

"The leader is right. This road is usually only a small team of large mercenary groups. After all, only they can compete with high-level monsters. Our mercenary group, which is between the second and third levels, also come to join in the fun. It may arouse others' suspicion. In short, the most dangerous thing in the Rain and Fog Forest is not the high-level monsters, but those cruel and ruthless mercenaries." Oli suffered a lot of losses, so he was particularly careful of other people in the forest.

Everyone nodded in agreement. They cheered up and followed the detailed steps and stepped on the soft grass among the trees.

After about half an hour of safety, the Tulips gradually penetrated into the forest, and fewer and fewer people were walking with them. Most of the mercenaries stared at them vigilantly and left in panic.

"Now it is close to the core area of ​​the forest. High-level monsters often appear here. Those large mercenary groups are not invincible. They jointly hunt one or two five- or six-star monsters. If they encounter Jiju, there is nothing they can do. So this section of the road is not cleaned up, so we still have to rely on ourselves and always prepare for battle!" After shouting in Qingqing, everyone immediately pulled out the long sword at their waists tacitly.

With a clang, more than ten long shiny swords surrounded Rick. Their masters were all good at exploring, and their experience and experience were far beyond the reach of newcomers.

Tulips' pace is much slower. To be on the safe side, they have to be extra careful about the monsters that may attack at any time. If they are only five stars, they can still accept it. If they encounter a six-star, they can withdraw at their discretion.

Xiang, who was opening the road ahead, suddenly made a gesture of silence, pressed his palm down, signaling everyone to stop, and the entire team immediately kept it still in place in tacit understanding.

"That's the Qingshuang Monkey, a five-star monster. Its territory consciousness is not strong, so we can go there safely." He pointed to a strange monkey with green hair. Its eyes seemed to be covered by ice and snow and was covered in white. The Qingshuang Monkey happened to block everyone's way. Fortunately, this guy's personality was quite stable and not aggressive, so they dared to go through it directly.

Rick looked up at the small Qingshuang monkey. It looked harmless, with soft hair and big eyes that gave everyone the illusion of harmlessness. However, in fact, the five-star monster is not as weak as it looks. Even Rick was not a match for this little guy during his heyday.

Qingshuang Monkey blinked his big eyes and looked at the people passing by its house curiously. He tilted his head and focused on the fruit on the top of the tree again.

Rick found that he had only walked a few steps, and the details made everyone stop. This time the leader's face became much ugly.

"What did you find?" Rick asked softly tactfully.

The detailed vision was locked in front of him, and he pointed at him and said, "Be careful, this beast is very dangerous. If an ordinary team encounters it, there is absolutely no way out."

Rick was startled, frowned and looked in the direction that Qing pointed. A spider that seemed to be hundreds of times enlarged was crawling on the ground with its long black legs.

The six-star monster black fog poisonous spider, a very dangerous guy...

Rick hid in the bushes and watched the big guy from afar. The pair of one-meter-long fangs and the slender white hair on the spider's legs made him feel creepy.

"Did you see so many blisters on the back of the black fog spider?" Ollie deliberately disgusted everyone and smiled wickedly: "The dense eggs of hundreds of black fog spider eggs. Once the mother's body dies, those little guys will pop out and eat the murderer until he doesn't even have bones left."

Rick felt a chill in his heart. He didn't look at the ugly appearance of the Black Fog Poison Spider, and asked, "Can't you go around?"

Qing silently opened the layout of the Rain and Fog Forest, thought for a while, and said, "Kyle, the location you gave must pass through the location of the Black Fog Poison Spider. If you take a detour, you will encounter a poisonous swamp and deviate from this shortcut. I don't know if you will encounter more trouble, so if you want to go through, you must break through here."

"Brother, really! Are you kidding? We are not all enough to get between our teeth." Ollie rolled her eyes and said angrily.

"Of course it's not hard, we'll stay here and wait for the Black Fog Spider to leave." Xianbing glared at Oli and focused on the big guy not far away.

"What is this?" A mercenary in his early thirties was frowning at the moment, staring at the purple bandage-like substance pressed on the tree stud. The thing was soft and stinky.

The heartbeat seemed to be missing a beat, and she said in shock: "No! This is the web of the black fog poisonous spider, which is highly toxic!"

Before he could finish his words, the mercenary who was caught felt paralyzed, his face turned pale immediately, then quickly turned purple, and finally he stared at his round eyes and fell down stiffly.

The black fog poisonous spider smelled the familiar smell, twisted its huge body, and the joints of its whole body were crackling. Its countless small eyes were aimed at the bushes where Rick and others were hiding, and crawled quickly.

His good brother suddenly died in front of him. Oli suppressed his anger and prepared to carry the stiff body, at least so that his comrades would not become food for the black fog spider.

"It's poisonous, don't touch him! Run!" The whereabouts were exposed. Qing quickly pushed away Oli, who was trying to touch the body, and retreated while asking someone to take care of Rick.

Rick was slapped by the two of them, and both feet left and right, and his feet left the ground. He smiled bitterly. Escape was important at this moment, and his image could only be temporarily abandoned.

However, everyone ignored the action of the six-star monster. The black fog poisonous spider suddenly stopped, and his eight long legs bent down at the same time, and then jumped into the air like a spring, accurately blocking everyone's retreat after landing.

It's over... Everyone felt a little despair in their hearts. Because the strength of the six-star monster can be roughly compared to the high-level swordsman, it is second only to the seven-star beast, and its strength is extremely terrifying. Even if there are ten tulip mercenaries now, they will face the situation of complete destruction.

There was still a glimmer of hope! Rick suddenly found that the green frost monkey was still greedily looking for food on the tree. He had an idea, picked up a small stone from the ground, and ejected it hard on the little guy's head.

The little pebbles accurately hit Qingshuang Xunhou's back forehead. The little guy squeaked in pain, and was so angry that he threw away the fruit in his hand, and turned around and stared at Rick angrily.

"Kyle, are you crazy? That spider is deadly enough. Are you still going to mess with that monkey now?" Ollie was so angry that her teeth were itchy.

Tulip mercenaries were sweating coldly and praying in their hearts. The black fog poisonous spider had exceeded their ability. If it was just a green frost monkey, it would still be eliminated with some effort. Now the two terrifying monsters have targeted their own side. They looked pale and thought that this time they would become a big feast for the monsters.

Rick looked at the Qingshuang Monkey on the branch with a provocative look and said lightly: "Now the Black Fog Spider has regarded us as prey. At this time, the Qingshuang Monkey dares to attack us, and the spider will definitely be mistaken for the young man to steal food from it."

The leader of the group thought calmly, nodded and said, "Kyle is right, everyone keeps the formation still." With his order, everyone immediately held the sword in their hands tightly and confronted the Black Fog Poison Spider and Qingshuang Monkey.

The little monkey with green hair hesitation looked at the black fog spider below. It happened that half of the spider's eyes continued to look straight at Rick and others, while the other half stared at the monkey with his mouth open and closed, and his fangs swayed as if warning it.
