No one expected that this scout from the Ice Star Team would actually appear here.
"You are here..." Under the focus of countless eyes, the young mercenary breathed a sigh of relief, with a happy smile on his face: "Follow me, we will find a cave."
Hearing these words, the mercenaries felt a rush of blood rushing to their heads, and were filled with surprises!
"Are you serious?!" Olivia trembled.
"Of course!" Roy nodded and pointed in another direction, "Originally, I thought that according to the route you were traveling, it should be in that direction. But I didn't expect..."
He smiled and said, "Thankfully I found you. Let's go, Mr. Landreaux is waiting in the cave. If they don't go back, they should be anxious."
There was silence all around.
Everyone present could swear that Leo's words were the most beautiful sound they had ever heard in their lives.
Yes, what is more fortunate than escaping death?!
Logically speaking, they should be happy for this, embrace this, and cheer for this. No matter how excited they are, it is not an exaggeration to lose their composure.
But I don’t know why, but everyone just feels their noses are sore.
Of course they knew why Leo couldn't find them. Therefore, they understood better than anyone else how difficult it was for Leo to stand here.
In order to rescue everyone, he risked his life and walked through the dark clouds, running tirelessly through the maze-like stone forest. He did not give up. He saved everyone with his hard work and perseverance.
However, just a few prayers ago, such a respectable young man was driven away by himself with unreasonable doubts and cynicism!
Looking at the black-haired young man in front of them, and comparing it with Hoover's despicable behavior, everyone felt even more ashamed. Sieg was the only one who was blind.
Just then, several soft sounds came.
Everyone turned around and saw that the battle rings on Siege and others had collapsed again.
"Leo," Olivia asked anxiously upon seeing this, "how far are we from the cave?"
"If you go fast, it will take about five or six minutes." Roy looked at Sieg and others and asked in surprise, "What's going on? Didn't you bring any medicine to resist the clouds?"
Sieg and the others looked at each other and laughed in despair.
If Roy didn't come, they would have resigned themselves to their fate. But unexpectedly, they saw that a way out was already in front of them, but they couldn't take it.
The only battle ring can last for a minute or two at most. There is no way they can survive the five or six minute journey. As soon as the battle ring is broken, they will become like the magician and become a ghost in the clouds.
A skeleton.
"Let's go. Don't waste time." Sieg said to everyone, "As long as everyone doesn't forget to seek justice for us, we will die without complaint."
While Sieg was talking, Olivia had already told Roy about Hoover.
Hearing that Sieg and others were betrayed by Hoover and ended up in their current situation, Roy couldn't help but have a cold light flash in his eyes.
The more people care about their relatives and friends, the more they hate people like Hoover.
Seeing that Siege and the other six were in danger, Roy took out a bottle of bright poison-repelling pills from the space ring, poured out six pills, and placed them one by one in the hands of Siege and the others.
"This is..." Looking at the yellow elixir in their hands, a trace of doubt flashed in the eyes of Siege and others.
"This is the medicine to resist the dark clouds," Roy said calmly. "If you want revenge, it is better to repay it with your own hands. Of course, the premise is that you must live."
Medicine to resist the clouds?
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. You must know that for hundreds of years, humans have only relied on Huoyuan Pill to resist the dark clouds when exploring the abyss. But Huoyuan Pill is gray. Everyone has never heard of this kind of pill.
Yellow elixir against dark clouds.
However, Sieg and the other five knights just looked at each other and simply swallowed the medicine.
"Put the battle ring away," Roy said. "Otherwise, your energy will be exhausted and you won't be able to keep up with the team."
Everyone's eyes fell on Siege and the others. They couldn't help but sweat for them.
Although no one doubted that Roy would deliberately harm Sieg and the others, this was a difficulty for Sieg and the others.
After all, this kind of medicine has never been seen before, and once they put away the battle ring, they will face a direct attack from the clouds. If anything goes wrong, their fate will be the same as the magician who died just now.
"*, try your best. It's just a minute or two less of your life."
The six people looked at each other, a trace of determination flashed in their eyes. They all put away their battle rings.
Without the resistance of the battle ring, the dark clouds directly enveloped their bodies.
However, they did not feel any discomfort. The powerful medicinal power emitted by the yellow pill was like a raging fire, melting the cold poisonous gas that invaded the body.
"I'm not dead! Hahahaha, I'm not dead!"
A short and stocky knight yelled crazily and laughed. But the laughter burst into tears, and finally turned into howling.
This sound made many people's eyes swell.
Sieg gritted his teeth. Although he had already guessed the result, when the moment actually came, he was still hit by a huge joy.
Tears were welling up in his eyes, and he held them back again and again before they came out.
No one can understand the feeling of slowly dying. It can be said that every minute and every second while waiting for the collapse of the battle ring is a torture more cruel than death itself.
Just now, Sieg even had thoughts of suicide.
And all this suffering has finally passed. Just like the sea after a storm, the sun is shining brightly, the wind is calm, and it is intoxicating.
"Let's go." Facing the eyes of Siege and others, Roy smiled slightly and turned around to lead the way.
Siege hesitated to speak, and finally engraved all his gratitude silently in his heart. Hei Ling patted him on the shoulder, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled, and hurriedly followed him.
Sieg and the other six people were able to escape death, and everyone was sincerely happy for them.
The crowd made a way, and as they passed by, everyone reached out and patted their shoulders, bumped their fists, or gave them a hug. Everyone looked at each other and smiled. There was a deep warmth among these young people.
The heart of the fierce and unruly man slowly moved.
For others, the stone forest was like a maze, but for Roy, it couldn't be simpler. Everyone followed him around east and west. It only took seven or eight minutes to reach the cave.
In the cave, Landero and others were looking anxiously. As soon as they saw Roy, everyone rushed up and surrounded him.
"Why have you been gone so long?"
"Are you okay?"
Everyone was talking about it. It was not until they repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing wrong with Roy that they breathed a sigh of relief.
Their nervousness towards Roy also made the other mercenaries feel emotional and ashamed. When several captains met Landreaux, their faces were as red as fire.
After solemnly and sincerely expressing her gratitude, Olivia said to Landreaux: "...To be honest, at first I was still questioning your vision, Mr. Landreaux. But I didn't expect that the one who was really blind was
I myself am far worse than you in understanding people."
"Yes." Wood nodded in agreement: "If it weren't for Leo this time, we would all be here."
As he said that, he glanced at Roy who was surrounded by everyone, and asked curiously: "Mr. Landreau, where did you find such a young and outstanding scout? He is also your Ice Star Mercenary Group
People?"
"Why, do you want to help your Rock Mercenary Group recruit him?" Landreaux saw through Wood's thoughts at a glance and asked meaningfully.
Wood smiled awkwardly, nodded calmly and said: "To be honest, I had misunderstandings about him before because this is an abyss. He looks too young, and it is difficult for people to believe that he is qualified for the job of a scout. No way.
Said, this is because I am short-sighted!"
"However," Wood changed his subject and said, "If I meet Leo outside, I will not underestimate him. A young man who is only about twenty years old has the strength of a glory star, even if he is placed in the three major training
Among the boys in the camp, you can be called a genius, right?"
Everyone nodded.
Wood then said to Landreaux: "It would be fine if he just had outstanding fighting spirit talent. But when you left, we saw his abilities with our own eyes. If we don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about the scout's abilities.
Simply the best person I've ever met!"
He sighed: "Our scouts are also well-known figures in the southern mercenary community. Zig, Hei Ling, and Wiseman from Olivia's team are all fifth- and sixth-level mercenaries.
Absolute top scouts. However, even though the three of them joined forces, they were left far behind by Leo alone. What does this mean?"
At this point, Wood sighed in admiration and said to Landreaux sincerely: "Not to mention Leo's life-saving grace for me, his ability alone is enough for our Rock Mercenary Group to recruit him at all costs.
We are colleagues, don’t you all know the role of an excellent scout? I am even sure that over time, Leo will have a chance to grow into a super scout!"
If Wood's previous words directly spoke to everyone's hearts, then the last few words immediately caused a commotion.
"Super Scout?!" Jacob lost his voice, "You said he might grow into a super scout?"
"Isn't it?" Wood asked.
Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly their hearts beat faster.
Whether in the army, a mercenary group, or an ordinary combat or adventure team, the scout is an indispensable but easily overlooked position.
He is said to be indispensable because he is the eyes of the team and the source of information for the commander to make judgments. At a critical moment, an accurate piece of information may be able to determine the fate of the entire group.
It is easy for people to ignore him because this profession does not have high personal requirements. Speed, dexterity, and agility are the most important requirements for becoming a qualified scout.
No matter how good he is, he is just proficient in skills such as traps, camouflage and concealment.
No one would send truly strong men to serve as scouts. That would be too wasteful. Their more important job is to serve as commanders or the main force in combat groups.
The simplest and most effective way to grasp information is to increase the number of scouts.
Therefore, although everyone knows the importance of scouts, their status in the team is not high. Many excellent scouts are just part-time workers. Just like Sieg and Black Ling, if they change positions, they will do the same job.
Excellent.
However, Super Scout is different.
This is definitely a strong person that any mercenary group will fight for at all costs.
The reason is very simple, because in some tasks, the scout's work cannot be completed with just a large number of people.
For example, exploring the fifth level of the abyss, or going deep into the dragon's lair... No matter how many ordinary scouts are sent up there, they will die. Not only will it not have any effect, but it may alert the enemy, or even bring fatal danger to the team.
In such a situation, the existence of a super mercenary is the key to determining victory or defeat.
Over the years, I don’t know how many mercenary groups can only watch others take over lucrative SSS-level tasks because of the lack of a super mercenary. I don’t know how many mercenary groups have lost their jobs because of the lack of super mercenaries.
The whole army was wiped out in the adventure that was forcibly launched.
On the contrary, today's top mercenary groups on the mainland rely on the help of super scouts to take the lead in the mission hall, completing tasks that other mercenary groups cannot complete, and finally establishing their current status.
How can everyone not be excited after hearing that Roy may become a super mercenary?
