Downton and his party who entered the vault were not greedy people. Following Twilight's reminder, they left immediately. After meeting up with their companions, they did not even use the map provided by Mueller. Instead, Oak led the way and escaped from Furnace Castle directly through a secret passage.
.
Riding flying mounts, the adventure group traveled two hundred miles before landing at the foot of a small hillside and began to set up camp.
The bonfire was lit, immediately dispelling the dark and humid air. When the broth in the iron pot bubbled and emitted a fragrant aroma, everyone's stomachs roared, and the feeling of hunger eroded their nerves.
Hutao, who was admiring the trophy, immediately threw away the gem and squatted in front of the bonfire, staring at the iron pot and drooling.
"Isn't this distance unsafe? With Smaug's speed, he can catch up with him at any time. If you ask me, I might as well just go back to the surface!"
Old Bu stroked the big gemstone ring on his hand and looked into the distance worriedly, but then his chest was filled with the joy of getting rich.
"Downton is really a very generous employer." Lao Bu sighed with emotion. Because he didn't have space equipment, his employer paid with jewelry, and he could sell it for more than one million. He knew that on this trip, he
In fact, it was an unexpected surprise to get such a big harvest without putting in much effort.
Sometimes Lao Bu would also wonder what Downton and the others got from the vault. For them, the gold coins were not important at all. What was important were the rare objects and treasures, but he buried this thought in his heart very rationally.
Su Ya, who has always been used to poverty, could not bear to let a useless guide get so much reward. The expression on his face about killing people and burying corpses almost scared the old man to pee, but Downton stopped him, which made the old man very grateful. If he didn't know it,
I was too weak, so I decided to recommend myself to follow him.
"No need!"
Twilight sat aside to rest. After being temporarily safe, she no longer suppressed the curse and injuries, so her whole body became weaker and looked frighteningly frail.
Fortunately, there is Xia Luo. Although the treatment spells of the orcs are reduced to humans, they cannot withstand the high level of the sage wolf. Moreover, the recovery effect of several temporarily prepared medicines is also good.
Smaug is not a beast that likes to hibernate. As an intelligent creature, no one can bear loneliness, so he often leaves the Forge Keep lair and travels around.
This time, Beauty and the Beast, the most famous fighting team of the Holy See of Light, were dispatched. They were strong men of the Grand Marshal level. Coupled with the Savage Thorns under the command of the evil god, Smaug naturally couldn't sit still. He wanted to come out and see what they had in store.
What's more, it is also planning to divert trouble to the east and let these adventurers from the surface cause trouble for the black shell of the Black Flame Church, drive it out of its nest, and then occupy the nest, so it has not returned for a long time.
The Forge.
The dwarves have launched too many operations to retake the Forge, and Smaug is relieved to have Noelle leading his men.
A combination of various reasons allowed Downton to successfully steal the vault.
"The demon servant you returned has not found any news about the tomb of the holy coffin?"
Downton sat next to Twilight and handed her a bottle of water. He knew that this operation in the Forge was just a sideshow, and Twilight's target was the coffin tomb.
"Thank you!" Twilight took it and took a sip, "Not yet, but it is confirmed that it is on the fifth level of the Dark Continent."
"Then what are you waiting for? Go quickly!"
The first time she went out, she got a lot of money. Sissi became more interested in adventure. She planned to write a book about this trip, which will definitely become a best-selling novel and become popular in the mainland.
"The fourth level of the continent is the territory of the drow. It is very dangerous to cross. Not to mention the fifth level. It is dark all day long and is home to a large number of warcraft and raptors, so our team needs to be streamlined."
Twilight really couldn't stand the trashy teammates, so in order to protect them, she had to expend a lot of combat power.
"I won't leave!" Hutao suddenly jumped up, hugging Downton's arm and acting coquettishly.
Juliet's face was dark. She knew that Twilight was talking about her, which made her feel like a waste and extremely lost.
"I'm leaving!" Old Bu immediately raised his hand and reminded carefully, "If you go to the fifth floor, you will have to die or lose half your life. You have to think about it."
"Cindy, what about you?"
Downton looked at the female guide.
"With such a generous employer like you, I naturally want to follow you and prepare to make a lot of money." Cindy promised again and again with a humble smile, "Don't worry, I have the means to save my life. You don't have to worry about it. I'll just die."
I'm unlucky."
"All right!"
Downton shrugged his shoulders, he didn't care.
"Palin..."
Before Sissi could speak, she was interrupted by Perin, "Don't try to persuade me. I am still a dragon slayer after all. No matter how dangerous it is, I have to go through it. After all, it is my duty to protect you, and I will not hesitate to pay even if it means making a statement."
."
The arrogance and awe-inspiring tone of Palin's words moved Sissi deeply.
"Don't worry, I will try my best to let the demon servant protect you." Sissi made up her mind that when she goes back, she will help him catch a good demon pet.
Palin thanked him. In fact, by doing this, in addition to being with Sissi and deepening his relationship, he also planned to fight against all odds. There were many powerful monsters on the fifth floor continent. With the help of ghost hunters and crystal dragons, plus
With the strength of Twilight and others, they can definitely tame a super-level monster.
"Hmph, as long as Sissi opens her mouth to ask for a magic servant, these people will definitely not fight with me." Palin's wishful thinking came true. Downton refused, which would definitely make Sissi dislike him for his small belly. If he agreed,
Even if you get a demon servant, you can still make him angry and internally injured.
After all, Perrin is also a dragon slayer, so self-protection is no problem.
"Juliet is also out, Old Wolf and I will protect her!"
Just when Downton told Juliet to leave, Tanan spoke.
"Um?"
Downton frowned.
"Don't look, I am also a dragon slayer. Although I am old, I can take care of a few stray fish. And from today on, Juliet will be my apprentice."
Tanan smacked her chest and made a loud banging noise, taking in everything.
"Downton, let me go?"
Juliet looked at Downton with a pleading look on her face. Taking care of Downton and Hu Tao was already the meaning of her existence. If she lost all this, she really didn't know what use she would have.
"All right!"
Downton is too soft-hearted and cannot bear to see Juliet sad.
Except for Lao Bu who resigned from the group, Downton and his party headed towards the fifth level of the Dark Continent after a brief rest.
The area between the two continents was full of tunnels and caves, making it impossible to deploy defenses. There were a lot of monsters, but after Downton released the bone dragon, the pressure of the souls of the super beasts directly made them retreat.
"What a waste. With our strength, we can completely kill those monsters. Their bodies are made of magic materials. The blood containing magic energy is used to copy scrolls, and the sinews can be used to make bow strings..."
Su Ya kept chattering and asked the super beast to clear the way. This was a treatment he had never received before. It was too luxurious.
Downton followed the good example. But in the end, without taking any action, Little Loli, along with Su Ya and Batty, killed a group of monsters and left corpses all over the place.
Homer collected all the corpses and prepared to take them back to have the bones made into abominations.
"Captain, there is blood!"
A drow riding a black spider saw the blood that had dried up and quickly called the captain. After a while, a border patrol arrived.
"Chase!"
The captain gave the order, and two days later, they arrived at the edge of the fifth-level continent and stopped.
"We can't chase anymore. The Black Flame Church's slave-catching groups often appear here. If we run into them, we will be dead."
"What is the origin of this adventure group? Judging from the wreckage, even hero-level monsters can't stop them."
"Go back and report to the mistress, but as long as you don't enter the fourth floor, you don't care about our affairs."
The patrols withdrew with solemn expressions.
As soon as they entered the tunnel on the fifth floor, everyone immediately felt the pressure. The monsters they encountered were like madmen, full of aggression, and all of them were heroic.
The environment was very dark, and everyone had to light lanterns. But this made them like fireflies in the dark, becoming the center of attention, so waves of monsters came after waves.
"It's endless!"
An ax cut off the head of a hell scorpion. Su Ya didn't bother to wipe the blood from his body and retreated to defend himself.
This was a group of hunting scorpions, there were more than a hundred of them, each one was as big as an adult rhinoceros. When Downton and his party noticed it, they were already surrounded.
Facing the Scorpions' fearless charge, Downton's side could only choose to hold on for the time being.
Downton, wearing a fearless suit, stood at the forefront of the cave, blocking the opponent tightly. If it weren't for the advantage of the terrain, he would have lost the position.
boom!
Using his shield to knock away a scorpion, Downton swung down the battle ax in his right hand and opened a blood groove on the other body. The blood spilled on the wall, making a corroding sound.
"Barty, you take my place."
Downton couldn't stand this feeling of oppression anymore, so he charged directly into the scorpion group.
Giant windmill!
The spinning Downton was like a naginata, moving forward quickly and plowing a corridor of flesh and blood. After landing, another storm of blades followed, spinning like a steel tornado.
Screams suddenly sounded.
The scorpions were disemboweled, their limbs and arms flying around, and the smell of blood instantly filled the surrounding area.
No one noticed that there were several pairs of eyes staring at them in the dark cave in the distance.
"The physical fitness of this group of adventurers is good. If we take them back, they will surely satisfy Dr. Matta."
"Hmph, even if you are at the dragon-slaying level, you can't survive the doctor's one-week experimental period."
"Those girls are very beautiful. If they are given to the doctor, they will definitely be transformed into monsters. Why don't we catch them and play with them first?"
The voices of these black figures are like cold-blooded lizards, with a hissing ending, and if you look carefully, the pupils are also in the vertical shape of felines.
"We don't have enough people in this team. Send a signal and call for more." The captain smiled grimly, "The slave resisted arrest, and Dr. Mata won't blame him."
The shadows laughed, and the implication of the captain's words was that everyone can do whatever they want to those girls.
When Downton and his party killed all the scorpions, three slave-catching groups also gathered together. They took out a dozen green boxes and released the devil mosquitoes the size of fingernails inside. (To be continued...)
