Devil’s Son-in-Law - Chapter 632
[Chapter 631 The Luck of the Spearmen]
In the sky, there was a thick layer of clouds, and the whole sky looked gloomy, which seemed to be a precursor to wind and rain.
//
The terrain of the Blue Wild Forest is quite tortuous, and the road is very familiar. Lucio and Chen Rui also walked for nearly five hours before reaching the said place of poison.
This is a mountain forest with dark plants and rugged terrain. Along the way, you can see many bones buried in the soil and fallen leaves, mostly humans.
Lucio’s footsteps slowed down, his face became more and more nervous, and he lowered his voice extremely cautiously and said: “Lord Richard, we have entered the territory of the scorpion and may be detected at any time. Go deep.”
“Setting a trap?” Chen Rui was startled, showing a thoughtful look: “I want to confirm first, is there definitely a scorpion egg in that Venomous Cave?”
“The scorpion in the Venomous Cave is a male and a female. Three months ago, the Fire Squad encountered a female scorpion that was about to lay eggs. Except for the two who escaped by chance, the rest were killed by the male scorpion.” Lucio’s tone was bleak with empathy, “In all, the lioness. The scorpion should have successfully spawned. Pastor Mana is a member of the Church of Light. After learning the news, he immediately bid for a reward. Although the reward is high, the task is too difficult, even the strongest mercenary in the town. The group did not pick up.”
The territory of the Yangshao Kingdom is not vast, but it is quite famous in various countries.
The founder Robben was a mercenary, and he brought a mercenary group to create a miracle of nation-building.
The Yangshao Kingdom is relatively loose in the management of mercenaries, giving the mercenaries a lot of freedom. It is called the kingdom of mercenaries.
One of the three major general associations of the Mercenary Union is located in the capital, and the other two are located in Long Huang and Lan Yao Empire.
Gudan Town is not an important town in the Yangshao Kingdom, but the strength of the mercenary branch is not weak. According to Lucio, the Saint Feather mercenary group is a black crystal-level team, and the leader of the group, Xiwen, is close to the holy level. The rest of the team members are all extraordinary in strength, especially their cooperation and understanding, and they are also well-known in the entire mercenary world.
I dare not take this task.
In fact, everyone understands that it is not that Sheng Yu can’t complete it, but that the price to be paid is too high, so they are unwilling to accept it.
Chen Rui looked at the cave in the distance.
Continue to walk forward: “Since it is confirmed that there are scorpion eggs in the poisonous cave, then let’s go.”
“Oh.” Lucio just responded, and immediately felt wrong, “Ah? Just go like this? Wait! Sir!
“My lord! At least one of the two scorpions is close to the holy level, and the monsters are powerful, and their combat power is even higher than that of humans at the same level…” Lucio was in a hurry, and his voice was silent
.
hold down.
I heard a roar coming from a distance, which made the spearman’s legs go soft, and he was almost scared to pee.
I saw a tall figure flying out of the cave in the distance, flapping its wings and rushing towards this side. Lucio didn’t expect to startle the terrifying beast so quickly
. The nightmare that had haunted him for a year came alive before his eyes.
The spearman desperately told himself to run away, but his weak feet were as heavy as lead.
He could only hold on to the handle of the gun that had lost the tip of his spear, as if it was the only thing that could be grasped.
The terrifying ferocious beast got closer and closer, accompanied by the roar that once made Lucio unforgettable.
The scene from a year ago reappeared in my mind, the ghostly figure, the sharp minions, the figures of the fallen companions, the blood-red sight…
The heavy breathing resounded in my ears, something I once thought was cooling down because of decadence The blood of his blood burned suddenly, and his fear was suddenly covered by another kind of anger and hatred. The spearman clenched the weapon in his hand that could only be called a stick, and let out a roar that he could not believe. stabbed before.
It was the most powerful shot Lucio had ever fired since that incident, and possibly the last of his life.
Lucio didn’t know why he did this.
Maybe it’s just an almost instinctive reaction, and most importantly, it’s already done.
Suddenly, the spearmen saw the light, shining like the sun in the dark jungle, without the warmth of the sun.
There is only one indescribable destructive power.
When Lucio came back to his senses, the light disappeared, and the nightmare that flapped his wings also disappeared.
The spearman looked at the wooden stick he stabbed in surprise… Is this the power of his own shot?
Joke, definitely not possible!
Suddenly, Chen Rui’s figure appeared in front of him. Three oval-shaped objects were suspended in his hands. These three objects were about thirty centimeters in length.
“This is… a scorpion egg?” Lucio still maintained his spear stance, but he looked extremely stiff. How could this be possible?
If the previous nightmare has passed, then the scene in front of you is another dream?
“Okay, you can go back.” The other party’s reaction was very dull, as if the three eggs were laid by ordinary poultry, not by the fearsome monster lion and scorpion.
Lucio dropped the gun, twisted his thigh hard, and finally woke up – it wasn’t a dream, it was real!
So, what about the two scorpions?
Being able to be unscathed in such a short period of time…
Lucio’s gaze towards Chen Rui was no longer fear, but a complete awe at another spiritual level.
Saint-level powerhouse!
Lucio bowed deeply. This general etiquette is somewhat similar to that of the demon world, but the position of the hands is slightly different. The demon world is placed on the abdomen or heart, and the left and right hands are optional, while the etiquette on the ground is to place the right hand on the left shoulder.
Recalling that when he was in the mercenary union, he had the thought of using the power of the Red Beard to deal with “Richard”, and Lucio couldn’t help but secretly shame: let alone killing him, even if he killed the Red Beard Rotan, the other party didn’t have to. A lot of hard work.
“It’s my honor to meet such a strong man as your lord! These two scorpions are the biggest scourge of the Blue Wild Forest. At least 300 mercenaries have died in their hands, including my former companions. I cannot describe how grateful and respectful I am to you.”
Chen Rui shook his head slightly: “I can kill them today, and someone stronger can kill me another day. The so-called calamity or hatred, in the final analysis, is nothing but the law of survival, competition for natural selection, survival of the fittest. From a certain perspective From the above, I am also weak. As a weak person, it is not that I do not have the power to survive or advance to become stronger, but the premise is that I do not give up this power. Do you understand?”
Lucio nodded and smiled bitterly: “This In fact, I understand the reason, and maybe I can understand a little more now, if… the adults can give me a chance to live.”
“Oh?” The
spearman hesitated for a while.
Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, “I have one thing to confess to your lord. Your lord should have been cultivating in a secret place for many years without asking about world affairs. In fact… these days are a bit special. King Yang Shao has arrived in the Longhuang Empire, and cannot go to Baiya. Because it will be the day when the Temple of Light will select the Temple Knights, and now the White Cliff has begun to be closed. Except for relevant personnel, no one is allowed to enter, and must wait until the Temple Knights are selected. After the completion, it will reopen to allow believers to enter the pilgrimage and pray.”
“Temple Knight Selection?” This news really surprised Chen Rui, “How long will it take to lift the closure?”
Lucio replied respectfully: “The Temple The selection of knights is once every 50 years, and it is said that there are various tests and competitions, and each time is about two to three months.”
Chen Rui’s brows furrowed tightly.
His time is only five months, and in addition to obtaining the cedar flower, there is a huge burden of one million crystals of faith.
If the selection of this temple knight alone will be delayed for three months, I am afraid that it will not be able to catch up later, and we must not wait passively.
“Please forgive me for my previous ignorance and ignorance.” After understanding the strength level of the opponent, Lucio no longer dared to have any extra thoughts. Offending a division-level powerhouse and offending a level-up powerhouse are completely two different things. With a different concept, “If your lord really needs to go to White Cliff for something urgent, and you don’t want to make it public, I have an idea.”
Chen Rui glanced at Lucio: “Tell me about it.”
“Sir, you can get through the joints through the clergy of the Church of Light and try to become the relevant personnel for the selection of knights.”
“Clergy?”
Lucio nodded: “For example, the person who posted this mission, Pastor Mana. My father had a relationship with Pastor Mana has a little friendship. I know this person has a great desire for power, position and money. This time, the reward for the scorpion eggs is definitely not to eliminate hidden dangers for Gudan Town… In fact, Pastor Mana has long been dissatisfied with As the head of the church in Gudan Town, he has long coveted the position of the bishop of the capital. As usual, after the selection of temple knights, there will be relevant changes and adjustments in the positions of the churches of light in various places. For Pastor Mana, it is a waiting A long-standing opportunity, the scorpion eggs are likely to be used for bribery.”
Chen Rui did not expect the hard-pressed spearmen to have this kind of analytical ability, and his eyes lit up: “What do you mean…”
“Bypassing the union Mission, directly use the scorpion eggs to walk the path of Pastor Mana. Perhaps, I can help the adults a little.”
“Your plan is indeed valuable, but…” Chen Rui pondered for a moment, and suddenly revealed a meaningful smile. : “Since I want to secretly enter the White Cliff, the more you know, the faster you will die. Since you can think of starting from Pastor Mana, it is impossible not to think of this, so you are not afraid…”
Lu Theo suddenly knelt down on one knee: “I swore that whoever can kill these two scorpions to avenge my companions, my life is his! I want to be a follower of adults!
” After struggling to stab that shot, UU Reading www.sonicmtl.com The spearman felt that his nerves, which had been numbed by decadence and alcohol, seemed to regain a bit of sobriety. It was a great opportunity to meet a saint-level powerhouse. Even if this opportunity is in danger of being killed at any time, if you miss it, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
From the moment he confessed earlier, Lucio was determined to give it a shot.
It’s too vulgar to accept my brother as soon as I arrived on the new map… Chen Rui understands Lucio’s intention. He is too unfamiliar with the situation on the ground, and he needs time urgently. Lucio is a good person who is familiar with the environment. candidates, and the plan does work.
“You’re wrong, only the dead are the most reliable keepers.”
This sentence made Lucio, who was on one knee, tremble, breaking into cold sweat.
“However, Your Excellency Lucio, congratulations, you made the right bet, the following is a question of contract formalities.” Chen Rui smiled: “The most I want to say to you is that your luck value, It will be S from now on.” (To be continued.
