The plain was filled with damp blood mist, the smell was astounding to the nostrils, and the painful cries of the injured lingered in the ears, making it extremely depressing.
Being in a foreign country, the mercenary group has no follow-up support, so it cannot pursue the demons and expand the results.
Several deputy captains rushed back and forth, arranging treatment for the injured and stabilizing the mood of the group members.
As members of an elite mercenary group, they have experienced this kind of battle many times, so they all know what to do and organize everything in the shortest possible time.
"You, go help save people."
The deputy captain who was in charge of the battle at the end of the team just now ran over on horseback, giving Downton stern orders and waving his whip in a demonstrative manner. This was because he was complaining that he had avoided fighting as a paladin after the elves and demons left.
"How do you talk? Your mother never taught you how to behave?"
Downton took the water bag from Juliet and was drinking heavily. He was originally going to rescue people later, but when he heard this, he immediately became rebellious.
"What did you say?"
The deputy captain's eyes widened in anger, so what if Downton has a bone dragon? We are a team, and the two captains, the captain and the deputy captain, are at the dragon-slaying level, so there is no problem in dealing with this kid.
"I told you to get out!"
Downton looked directly at the deputy leader, showing no signs of stage fright.
Choking!
The nearby mercenaries drew their weapons again and surrounded him.
"If you have anything to say, please tell me. This captain, it makes no sense to ask Downton to save people. He has withstood the attack of a high-level demon. He has consumed a lot of energy and needs to rest."
Cindy stepped forward to smooth things over.
"Indeed, what you want to do is not to show off your authority here, but to deal with the follow-up matters as soon as possible so that the joint caravan can leave as soon as possible."
Mueller also interrupted. The Tauren really wanted Downton to have a fight with these mercenaries and offend them all.
"Boy, I remember you."
The deputy leader gave the horsewhip a sharp shake and turned to leave.
"etc!"
Downton opened his mouth to call someone.
"What? Want to fight?"
The deputy leader's eyes flashed with excitement as he stared at Downton's weapon. If he could find a reason to kill him, this equipment would belong to the team.
"In the battle just now, I drank a potion of madness and a potion of steel. The total value is 2.5 million gold coins. Please reimburse me."
Downton originally didn't intend to ask for money, but he was being taken advantage of, and he didn't care if the relationship became more tense.
"What? You drank more than two million worth of potion in one go? Didn't you realize that this kid is rich?"
"Could he be lying?"
"Look at the luster of his equipment. At least two of them are legendary level. There are also potion bottles on the ground. Let our pharmacist check the residual liquid. We can get detailed information, so it should be correct."
"Do you think I'm like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered?"
The deputy captain snorted coldly, pretending to be righteous, but in fact he knew in his heart that this young man was not lying. If he did not rely on the perfect level of potion, he would not be able to block the attack of a strong man close to the dragon-slaying level.
Everyone saw the battle just now. The elves and demons were terrifyingly strong. If Downton hadn't stopped him, hundreds of people on our side would have died at his hands.
"If you can't be the master, get out of here. Go call someone who can take matters into your own hands!" Downton said furiously, "Bone Dragon, go and collect all the soul stones. If anyone doesn't give them, I'll bite them to death."
he!"
"No problem, Master!"
The bone dragon had long wanted to kill someone. A pair of green fire eyes swept over it, and the mercenaries felt cold sweat break out, and they all retreated.
"I can help you collect soul stones, but you have to give me 10% as commission."
Su Ya is not afraid of offending people, as long as he can make money, he will do any job.
"Can!"
Downton nodded.
For a large mercenary group like this, after the battle, the members can keep 10% of the loot privately, and the rest must be handed over, and then the group leader will distribute it according to the contribution of each team.
Apart from killing the enemies with their own hands, the unlucky guys like Downton who helped in the battle did not get any extra gains. Of course, if they met the leader who had a good heart, they could also get hundreds of gold coins as a reward.
Because the soul remains can be used as sacrifices, the price is very high. Naturally, the mercenaries did not want to hand over the trophies they had obtained, so they got into a shoving argument with Su Ya.
Su Ya was indeed a troll with a fiery personality. He didn't bother to argue and just punched him.
They were all mercenaries who sucked blood from their swords, not to mention there were many people on their side, so they were not afraid. They had a dispute with Su Ya, but they were too weak, and three of them were beaten down in an instant.
The bone dragon flew over, ready to breathe and attack at any time, and then the conflict was controlled within a certain range without spreading.
The ring returned to the shape of the ancient grimoire. With a deep breath, wisps of purple soul remains flew out from the corpse and were swallowed by it.
"Stop him!"
The deputy captain was angry, but it was too late. The magic book was absorbed too quickly. In the blink of an eye, all nearby soul remains were sucked away.
"you wanna die!"
The deputy leader stared at Downton and gritted his teeth.
"Hand over the soul stones you are carrying, otherwise don't blame me for being rude."
Seeing that the relationship was completely broken, Downton simply insisted on being strong to the end. At this time, if he gave in, he would definitely be dealt with.
Hutao ejected and jumped on the back of the bone dragon, holding the battle ax and looking down at the battlefield, ready to fight at any time.
"Is this kid crazy? If he offends the mercenary group, he will most likely die underground."
The tauren is very happy.
"Come on, if I had a bone dragon and a firebird as a demon servant, I would dare to be so crazy!" The dwarf brothers curled their lips. They have not forgotten what Mueller just said. The actions of Downton's firebird
The ace at the bottom of the box has not yet appeared.
"You are determined to go against us, so don't blame me for being rude."
The deputy commander yelled angrily. He was hit in the face in front of his subordinates. If he doesn't regain his position, he will no longer be able to direct battles in the future, and his prestige will be reduced.
"You're welcome to show me one of them!"
Downton spat and clenched the Balrog's hand.
"Everyone, please stop being like this and calm down."
Cindy tried to persuade.
"Get away!"
The deputy leader cursed.
The man in black robe and Mueller looked on with cold eyes. The ordinary-looking girl Twilight didn't say anything, but she walked behind Downton, her intention being self-evident. She wanted to fight alongside him.
"Thanks!"
Downton was a little surprised. After all, no matter how you looked at it, he was at a disadvantage.
"I don't like the way these people behave. It's too selfish and overbearing."
Twilight's eyes were very upright.
"Kill him for me!"
The deputy captain roared, preparing to create a fait accompli. Let Downton's hands be stained with the blood of his companions, so that even if the captain arrived, he would have no choice but to continue fighting.
"What are you doing?"
Before the mercenaries could charge, more than a dozen men on war horses rushed over aggressively.
The leader had a Chinese-character face, not angry but intimidating. One word made the deputy leader shrink his neck.
Immediately some subordinates came over and told the regiment leader what had just happened.
"I'm very grateful for your contribution to the battle situation, but by making such a blatant challenge, doesn't it mean you don't take us seriously enough? Huh?"
At the end of the group leader's words, the tone of the word 'um' suddenly became louder and full of questions. He was worthy of being a dragon slayer. He already had some soul pressure. When facing them, ordinary people would be so frightened that they would kneel down uncontrollably.
The ground begged for mercy.
"Face is earned by oneself. Others respect me three points. I respect others ten points and want to flatter me. Get away as far as you can as soon as possible."
Downton fought back not to be outdone.
"Downton drank more than two million yuan in potion, and you didn't even give him a single copper. You also asked him to work as a coolie to save people, and even cursed them. Don't you think it's too much to bully people?"
Hu Tao scolded, wanting to hack the deputy captain to death.
The mercenaries whispered. It was indeed the deputy captain who did something wrong, but because he was one of his own, he couldn't complain and could only bite the bullet and hold on.
"Downton, I haven't seen you for more than a year. Your temper is getting worse!"
Behind the group leader was a young man in a robe, teasing Downton with a smile, and his words were full of sarcasm.
"Joaquin? If you're not doing experiments in the capital, why are you coming to the Underdark?"
Downton was a little surprised. This guy's strength was only at the war level. He actually came to the underground world to wander around. He was really desperate for his life. However, the opponent's knowledge of potions was quite powerful.
"secret!"
Joaquin deliberately made Downton angry.
Downton was not angry, but frowned and looked behind Joaquin. A young man wearing a metal mask was sitting on a horse, holding a scimitar in his fingers and glaring at him angrily.
"I know you?"
Downton question.
"snort!"
The masked man's voice was hoarse, like an animal's claws scratching an iron pot, which would make one's eardrums wear out.
"Captain, for my sake, let this matter go." Joaquin interceded for Downton, "After all, he is a fellow countryman of mine."
"According to my character, I want to drive him out of the caravan. Since the master has spoken, let's give him some face." The leader glared at Downton and called to his subordinates, "Let's go."
A group of mercenaries retreated like a tide. The deputy leader was angry and turned around to cut his throat.
"Fellow, be careful in the future." Joaquin left, but after taking a few steps, he seemed to remember something and turned back to joke, "By the way, I am already a master of potions. I got the license a month ago."
"Hey, you're just a master potion master. Why are you so arrogant? Downton will be able to do it soon." Hutao made a face and landed on the bone dragon.
"Why do you want to stop the leader? Together with me, we can kill Downton."
The masked man was so angry that he held back and didn't take action.
"Now is not the time, don't worry, I will give you a chance to kill him with your own hands." Joaquin's face was dull, but his heart was ferocious. He is just a country boy, and he dares to fight for Xia Luo with him. He really doesn't know how to live or die.
It is simply too cheap to kill him. I want him to live and die, and his soul will be imprisoned in darkness forever.
"Captain, that kid has pretty good equipment. We can definitely take advantage of the quarrel to kill him."
At the same time, the deputy leader also complained.
"Those demons must have arranged for scouts. Now the conflict with that kid is not worth the gain. Wait a minute, there will be a demon rift, and I will definitely let him know the consequences of offending us."
The adventure world adheres to the law of the jungle. Not to mention that Downton also possesses epic weapons and is guilty of the crime. Even if he is a pauper, just because he reduced the leader's face in public, it is enough for the leader to kill him ten times. (To be continued...
