In the luxuriously decorated living room of an old castle, Scarlett was wearing a pure white robe, standing gracefully. In front of her, stood an old mercenary.
If Roy were here, he would definitely recognize that this was the old mercenary who talked to him when he was in the mission hall. In Scarlett's hand, she held a portrait of Roy. The old mercenary
Bing Zheng said to Scarlett in a positive tone.
"Okay," Scarlett waved her hand and motioned for her entourage to take the old mercenary away, "Give him the reward."
When the living room door closed, Scarlett turned her head and said to the other two people in the room: "I'm going to the abyss."
One of the two was McCallan, who came to pay the ransom and take Scarlett back this time. The other was a middle-aged knight who was as tall as a giant.
Hearing Scarlett's words, McCallan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
No matter how resourceful he is, there is nothing he can do about this wayward young lady of his family. Moreover, until now, he still can't figure out why Scarlett insists on coming back. Could it be that she also wants to kill Leo with her own hands to avenge Fred?
?Isn’t this unnecessary?
You know, the ones taking action this time are the top killer groups. Not to mention a mercenary, even a Sanctuary, if you are not careful, you may fall.
What's more, here Ao is looking for death. He thought that the three major families paid the ransom and the matter was understood. He actually joined the mercenary team exploring the abyss ruins alone when his two friends from the alien sanctuary were not around.
This is simply like actively sticking one's neck into the noose.
With two top killer organizations taking action at the same time, and with an old fox like Watts sitting behind him, this kid is already dead.
Under such circumstances, it would be completely unnecessary for Scarlett to go there in person.
However, thinking this way, McCallan still had nothing to do with Scarlett. As soon as he heard Scarlett's words, he knew that his efforts to stop her would have no effect.
McCallan set his sights on the giant middle-aged knight.
The knight's name is Ralph, and he has the strength of five stars in the Great Light. He is second only to Fred in the house. He is also the strongest one among the family knights who went south this time. Scarlett's safety is actually up to him.
Be responsible. Even McCallan has to respect his opinion on this.
McCallan himself only has the strength of the Just Knight, so whether Scarlett can go to the abyss depends entirely on Ralph. Although McCallan really wanted to give Ralph a wink and let him refuse outright, but he knew...
…
Sure enough, Ralph said without hesitation: "As you command, miss. I'll go get ready."
Watching Ralph leave, McCallan felt a headache. While thinking about how to explain to Elizabeth and Prince Anthony, he sighed and asked Scarlett: "Miss, can I ask
Ask, why do you insist on going in person?"
Scarlett looked out the window and remained silent without speaking.
She couldn't answer McCallan's question.
She knew that in the eyes of McCallan and even everyone else, she hated the guy who killed Fred so much that she wanted to kill him with her own hands this time.
But only Scarlett herself knows that this is not true.
The fact is that I hate him. But for a while, every time I closed my eyes, what came to my mind was the figure of this guy running rampant in Munich that night.
He wandered around like a lone wolf among the knights of the Bano family, tearing his opponents into pieces. Under the threat of the strong men in the sanctuary, he left calmly, and then backhandedly attacked the castle of the little Bano, causing a stir.
It became a shocking murder that shocked the empire.
Then, he killed Fred.
Especially when he faced Fred's attack at the end, like a petrel facing a storm. He went upstream and finally stabbed Fred's neck with a sword, it was like a nightmare engraved in Scarlett's heart.
Deep in my heart, I will never forget it in this lifetime.
He is so bold, so unruly, yet so calm and wise. Coupled with the name of the ancient family Ferdinand, it gives him a mysterious aura.
Scarlett has never been torn to pieces and turned into a dangerous attraction.
This is an extremely complex psychology.
She wanted to cut him into pieces, return all the humiliation she had suffered to him, and watch him fall in front of her. She had imagined that scene more than once.
But on the other hand, she didn't want him to die.
She wanted to conquer him, just like conquering a strong, unruly, wild and untamed wild horse on the grassland. She tied him around her with a rope.
"You killed Uncle Fred, you owe me this." Scarlett stared out the window and murmured in her heart. "I want you to pay it back!"
…………
The blood spread from underneath the corpse, forming a shocking circle.
This was a man dressed as a mercenary. His eyes were wide open, as if he didn't understand why the other party wanted to kill him. Next to him, there was a portrait of a young mercenary he had seen in the mission hall.
Gradually it was infected by the flowing blood and turned blood red.
He pulled the dagger out of the corpse and put it in his mouth to taste it. An intoxicated and terrifying smile appeared on the murderer's face.
This is a short man wearing black armor and a black cloak. His exposed hands, even his neck, face and top of his head are covered with dense tattoos. Especially his mouth, which appears to be split toward the ears because of the tattoos.
It looks like a lizard.
"That's the boy." the short man said.
Beside him, there were eight people dressed the same as him. Each one looked eerie, and one could feel a bone-chilling chill from a distance.
After listening to the short man's words, a thin man in the center nodded, with a cold smile on his skull-like face.
"Let's go." He said coldly, "Let's see what this little guy is capable of, who actually made the Bano family pay such a large sum of money to invite us Dark Executioners to take action."
He got on top of a Nightmare and galloped out first. Everyone followed closely. The Nightmare's hooves left a series of burning hoofprints on the ground, and also left behind his voice.
"I hope he won't let us down."
…………
Almost at the same time, a huge carriage, escorted by more than a dozen tough knights, headed towards Qingshui County.
The carriage is pulled by eight six-legged horses.
Each of these giant beasts from the Fei Lie Empire can easily carry a fully armed heavy armored knight for hundreds of kilometers. But now, it is extremely difficult for eight six-legged horses to pull a carriage.
Where the carriage passed, the wheels left deep marks.
It seemed as if a huge mountain was pressing on the carriage.
And when the passers-by cast their surprised eyes at the carriage, what they saw through the open window was just a woman with a graceful figure.
How much can a woman weigh?
People looked at each other in confusion.
But no matter how curious they were, this was not something they could explore. The murderous aura emanating from the dozen knights surrounding the carriage was enough to make even the most unruly mercenaries retreat.
"What a handsome boy." In the Mercedes-Benz carriage, a woman held a portrait in her hand, looked at it, and murmured with a charming arc at the corner of her mouth. "Especially these eyes, they look really good.
charming."
The person in the portrait is none other than Roy, who transformed into Leo.
"It's such a pity," the woman stroked Roy's eyebrows with her slender jade fingers, and her eyes were like thousands of stars twinkling. She sighed faintly, "Although I am a little reluctant, you are still going to die after all. Who asked you to capture someone else's daughter?
Are you letting people find our blood demon's hands?"
Silently, the portrait suddenly turned into fly ash, floated out of the window, and was immediately left behind by the speeding carriage.
In the wind, a woman's cold voice could be faintly heard.
"Speed up."
………………
The mercenary team cautiously advanced through the dark jungle.
There is no sunlight in the abyss jungle, and the visibility is very low. The stars in the sky are like blood-colored eyes. At most, people can only see a distance of 20 meters around them. Any further away, it is foggy, which makes people feel extra special.
of depression.
The jungle is full of deadly magical plants.
After only walking less than fifty meters, the team was attacked by two Bigfoot Piranha plants and a Netherworld tree. Although they were easy to solve, everyone's nerves were tense.
The appearance of these demonized plants shows that they cannot think. They will instinctively attack any creature that enters the attack range. One or two plants may not matter, but you need to know. The deeper you go into the jungle, the more powerful these demonized plants become.
The greater the quantity.
Even if hundreds or thousands of people appear together, it has not happened before.
In addition to these demonized plants, there are also large swamps and permeable poisonous fog in the jungle. Once you are trapped in it, you may end up turning into a pile of bones and sleeping here forever.
At the same time, the demons who originally fled quickly as soon as they noticed the powerful aura of their opponents began to become bolder. Although they did not take the initiative to attack, they did not escape either. Instead, they followed around the team like a group of waiting ones.
Hyena of opportunity.
The Silent Jungle is their home field.
The environment is dangerous for humans and other races, but for them, they are like a fish in water. Their racial talents allow them to fully display their abilities in such an environment. If they can't be beaten, they can also rely on the terrain
escape.
This makes them bold.
Moreover, the Silent Forest is a public hunting ground for the abyss demons. Here, the demons have no concept of territory. Although they will hunt each other, once there are other prey, they will
Choose cooperation.
This is the most troublesome part.
Roy followed behind Landero, observing carefully as he walked.
The first level of the abyss has basically been explored by mercenaries who have explored it over the years, and the jungle that must be passed through to enter the entrance to the second level is naturally no exception.
However, if this is your first time here, you may not be able to go very far even with a map.
There are no roads at all in the Silent Jungle. There are many places that look exactly the same. If there were no old horses like Landreaux who have explored the abyss many times to lead the way, you would never have imagined that you need to go around a huge rock and walk into a bush.
, and even climbed off the cliff.
And those paths that seem more obvious to you are often dead ends and even hide fatal dangers.
As Roy walked, he reflected each other with the signs on the map, and gradually, he also grasped a little pattern.
As the team moved forward, more and more demons gathered around them. From time to time, they could hear rustling sounds in the grass and the sound of two demons fighting. Those pairs of red eyes were shining in the darkness.
, so densely packed that people can’t help but sweat in their palms.
Franco, who is responsible for exploring the path, has retreated to less than fifty meters away from the team. More and more demons are constantly squeezing his space. As long as the distance is a little further, there will be demons.
Surge up and launch a tentative attack on him.
With Franco's strength, it is not a problem to deal with ten or twenty demons. But this does not mean that he can fight his way out among hundreds of demons.
Moreover, this is a silent jungle. Even if you move forward so carefully, you still have to stop from time to time to identify the direction. Once you panic and choose the right path during the battle, the end may be worse than being surrounded by demons.
In such an atmosphere, other members of the team also became silent. Even the chatty Lacios became quiet. A pair of small eyes watched the surroundings vigilantly, holding a gem in his hand at any time, as if just a moment
If there is any sign of trouble, he will throw out those weird spells desperately!
After getting familiar with the environment, Roy relaxed. Through perception and the eyes of elements, he could clearly observe the locations of all the demons around him. As long as these first- and second-level demons were careful, they would not cause any harm to him.
threats.
Instead, his curiosity to study the demon's power system took over. If he wasn't afraid of causing trouble, he would have wanted to catch a few demons and have a look.
Just when Roy looked at the demons gathered around him but could not take action, feeling itchy and unbearable, Landreaux marked a concentric circle on the map and stopped.
This is a depression under a cliff with few trees. On one side is a cliff and on the other is Luanshidui. The entire terrain extends to the northwest in a fan shape and is relatively open.
After following the team here, without the cover of the jungle and grass, some abyss demons appeared.
When they saw their prey more clearly and discovered that many of the same kind gathered around them, they became commotion. Many of the demons at the front were jumping around, scratching the ground with their claws from time to time, looking eager to try.
appearance.
"Get ready to fight." Landreaux did not continue moving forward, but pointed to the cliff and quickly dispatched, "Afu and Laxios will go to the first floor, Tusu and Leo will go to the second floor, and Reclari will follow me.
In the front, Franco is responsible for driving and seducing."
