Ryan waited on the top of the tree for a long time. He had to wait until the sun had fully risen and it was safe before he dared to come down from the tree.
The battlefield under the tree had been cleaned up by zombie skeletons. Looking from the top of the tree, Ryan could not see any items left behind. Even the blood that fell to the ground after the mercenaries were injured was miraculously invisible.
.
In the place where we just fought, we can barely tell that there has been a fierce battle here only from some broken branches and crushed grass. However, if you don't know that there has been a battle here before, just seeing these broken branches
It would be hard to imagine that a battle had taken place here. When Ryan was exploring Gesudo Mountain during the day yesterday, he saw many similar places, but he never imagined that a battle had taken place there.
"It turns out that those zombie skeletons came out of the underground, and then brought the killed bodies underground. No wonder we couldn't find any clues during the day." Ruian thought to himself.
After finally waiting until the sun rose and fully illuminated the entire Gesodo Mountain, Ryan carefully climbed down from the top of the tree. He carefully searched the nearby location and found that everything was similar to what he saw during the daytime inspection yesterday.
In addition to a lot of broken branches and leaves in some places, some grass on the ground was crushed. But Ryan already knew at this time that these places were where the battle took place last night.
"I wonder how many of us are still alive today out of the fifty of us last night? Looking at the formation of zombies yesterday, I guess they didn't hide. Those who have been walking around in the fog have been poisoned. I don't know if anyone is hiding like me.
Get up and escape with your life?" Ruian kept thinking randomly in his mind.
"By the way, the mercenary in our team who escaped last night was wondering if he could escape? It would probably be difficult. We were already on the ground by then. It would be impossible for him to leave in the fog."
"If I am the only one left to go back this time, and the others don't go back, will anyone think that I killed them? Probably not. I am just a level 4 swordsman. How could I kill so many people?
Where are the people?" Ruian was a little worried, but then let go.
Ruian didn't dare to stay for a long time. After a little exploration and finding that there were no other abnormalities, he hurried down the mountain.
On the way back to Gesudo Town, Ryan saw several groups of people heading towards Gesudo Mountain. These people probably went to investigate during the day. Ryan ignored them. These people were destined to be unable to find anything.
Clues.
When approaching the gate of Gesudo Town, Ruian found hundreds of people gathered at the gate. This situation was slightly abnormal, but Ruian, who had been to many places and had seen many similar situations, did not pay too much attention and went straight to
Go into the town.
Unexpectedly, Ruian approached the city gate. As soon as he approached the group of people at the city gate, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted: "Isn't this the mercenary who went to Gesudo Mountain with the Tiger Mercenary Group last night?"
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone at the city gate focused their attention on Ruian.
Suddenly, Ruian thought to himself: "Trouble is coming."
Another voice suddenly sounded from the crowd: "Ryan, why are you coming back alone? Where are the others? Where are the people from our Tiger Mercenary Group?"
Ruian turned around and looked over, and saw that the person speaking was the thin man who asked Ruian to join this mission yesterday. Ruian had already told his name when chatting with him yesterday.
The thin man seemed to be very impulsive, and kept rushing towards Ryan. There were six or seven people who came with him. It is conceivable that these people are all members of the Tiger Mercenary Group, since none of them participated in last night's mission.
, then their swordsman level is below level 2 swordsman.
The other people at the city gate did not come forward, they all stood there, watching the excitement and watching the show. Indeed, this group of people gathered at the city gate because they wanted to know the mission of the Tiger Mercenary Group as soon as possible.
Completed or not. Now that I see that the Tiger Mercenary Group has not returned, and only one mercenary they invited has returned, I naturally want to take a closer look at what happened.
The thin man asked again: "Where is our Tiger Mercenary Group? Where is our leader?" He looked very nervous, fearing that Ruian's words would have bad consequences.
For a moment, Ruian didn't know how to answer the other party. After thinking for a few breaths, he didn't answer, but asked: "Is anyone else coming back?"
"No. No one else came back except you." The thin man looked very impatient, and he asked impatiently, "Tell me, what happened?" Looking at his appearance, if he hadn't been concerned about Ruian's sword,
The rank of sergeant is higher than his, maybe he wants to give Ruian a beating first and then ask again.
After listening to the thin man's answer, Ruian thought to himself: "It seems that except for me, everyone else has been killed, or someone did not come back to Gesudo Town after escaping." Next, in full view of everyone, Ruian
Having no choice but to answer the thin man's question, Ruian said solemnly: "If no one has come back by this time, then all the others have probably been killed."
These words were like explosives, erupting into earth-shaking shocks in the hearts of everyone at the city gate. Immediately, everyone started chattering.
The thin man was even more shocked. After a moment, he stepped forward to grab Ruian's shirt and shouted angrily: "No way, you are lying."
Of course, Rui'an would not be caught by him. Rui waved his right hand to block the thin man's hand, and then said calmly: "If you don't believe it, you can go to Gesudo Mountain and have a look."
The thin man was stunned for a moment, but then he yelled: "Then why are you okay? Are you an accomplice of the murderer?"
This remark aroused the response of his companions, who all yelled and cursed Ryan.
Other onlookers at the city gate, including some who believed this statement, were discussing it loudly with others.
"Now we are in trouble. If we don't handle it well, we can easily be wronged by these people. What should we do?" Ruian thought anxiously in his heart.
After a few breaths, Ryan had an idea. He jumped up and yelled angrily at the thin man: "You are talking nonsense, you are slanderous, do you know what happened? Do you know what enemy we encountered? You
Do you know that everyone died miserably? Do you know how hard it was for me to escape?"
A series of questions immediately made the thin man retreat, speechless.
Others also temporarily gave up their suspicion that Ryan was an accomplice of the murderer.
At this time, not only the thin man's companions, but also the spectators were anxiously asking: "What happened? Why is everyone dead?"
Seeing that everyone was very excited, Ruian did not explain to everyone on the spot, but asked loudly: "Is there anyone with a bounty mission present?"
As soon as he finished speaking, an old man in his fifties walked out of the crowd, walked up to Ruian and said, "I was entrusted by the mayor to wait for you to come back. Young man, please tell me what happened last night."
What happened?"
The old man's eyes were gentler, and he didn't look down on Ruian.
So, Ruian breathed a sigh of relief and described the process of going to explore Gesudo Mountain last night.
He focused on how everyone would lose their way after entering the fog and wander around in the fog all night. Later, the Tigers mercenary group had conflicts with other mercenaries, causing the team to separate and be defeated by zombies and skeletons. Ryan also described the enemy
There are undead creatures such as skeletons, zombies, and bats, as well as the abilities of each undead creature. Finally, everyone's corpses are dragged out of the ground.
However, Ryan omitted the fact that he hid in the tree and did not participate in the battle. He felt that it would be too embarrassing to talk about it. So he only told the story that he was separated from the others, wandered around alone in the fog, and finally waited until dawn
Just got out of trouble.
Ruian talked for a long time and went through the entire process. At the end, Ruian said to the old man: "The zombies in Gesuduo Mountain are too powerful. It is best not to let some weak people go to avoid heavy casualties."
After everyone listened, they felt very shocked and started talking one after another.
The old man was also stunned. He was deeply shocked by what Ruian told him. After Ruian finished speaking, the old man came back to his senses, but then he said that he would go back quickly to tell the mayor the news and invited Ruian to follow him.
Go together.
But Ruian really didn't want to go there. He just wanted to go back to the hotel to rest. So Ruian told the old man that he had gone to the wine shop before and told the old man that if he wanted to find something, he could go there to find him.
Ruian didn't dare to tell the old man the address of the hotel he was staying in when there were many people watching the fun, so as not to disturb him, so he settled for the next best thing and told the old man the address of the hotel where he was staying.
Then the old man left in a hurry.
Ryan also planned to leave, but was blocked by the thin man and his companions.
In Ruian's narration just now, he mentioned that the Tiger Mercenary Group had a quarrel with other mercenaries, causing the team to separate, and finally leading to the annihilation of the entire army. This has done great harm to the reputation of the Tiger Mercenary Group, although at this moment, with many level 3
With the death of the mercenaries above swordsmen, the Tiger Mercenary Group existed in name only, but the remaining mercenaries like the Slender Man still had to live under the reputation of the Tiger Mercenary Group, so they hated Ruian with all their heart.
They knew very well that their own strength could not deal with Ruian, and they did not dare to unite to deal with Ruian in public, so they could only use other methods to deal with Ruian.
I saw the thin man asking viciously: "Don't leave, you haven't explained clearly yet, how did you escape?" The thin man's eyes were full of hatred, as if Ryan had killed the members of the Tigers mercenary group.
The skinny man's expression at this moment was completely different from the expression on his face when he invited Ruian yesterday.
His companions also added fuel to the fire and shouted: "Tell me, how did you escape?" The appearance of this group of people was exactly the same as when soldiers were interrogating prisoners.
