To the east of Frostleaf City, there is a sparse jungle, because it is close to the Doge's City, the density of demonic beasts here is far lower than that of some large forests that are inaccessible.

Of course, another reason is that there is a large mine at the junction of these jungles. The owner of the mine is the great nobles of Frostleaf City, the Luo family.

The mine produces two main ores, sapphire and graphite, which are not very valuable ores, but because of the size of the mine and the surprisingly high ore content, the amount of ore produced is about three times that of a typical mine...... That's why every year the mine is extremely profitable

Therefore, every year, the Luo family will also spend a lot of energy to clean up the demonic beasts in the mine and the surrounding area, but recently, the mine is facing a big problem.

A sacred beast from the Fallen Leaf Plains occupied a jungle, and the sacred beast was extremely aggressive against humans, and the surrounding area, including the mines, became a dangerous area.

The merchants who had gone east by this road did not dare to take this road anymore, and the people reluctantly called the occupied jungle the jungle of bees.

Of course, the biggest headache is the Luo family.

Such a large mine is next to the Bee Jungle, with such a big threat on the side, the Luo family mine only stops all operations, as long as the bee jungle is still in the day, such a good mine cannot operate, and the Luo family can't move the mine, so they can only find a way to solve the trouble of the Bee Jungle.

The Luo family has a total of five final-level professionals, and they rely on them to deal with holy beast-level demonic beasts...... There is a lot of risk, and that holy beast is extremely fast in creating "offspring", and since it occupied the jungle, it has faintly developed into a small bee empire.

Tens of thousands of Demonic Beasts, the Red Fire Bee, are a force that is extremely troublesome.

But you can't just leave it alone, and let it go at the growth rate of bees...... The more time passes, the more terrifying they become.

So the Luo family could only bite the bullet and start the cleaning work.

Of course, the Luo family will not be stupid to act alone, and the head of the Luo family has dragged the other families into the water with the laws of the empire.

However, most of the people sent by other families were not strong, so the Luo family had no choice but to hire many large mercenary groups through employment.

The Silver Wolf Mercenary Regiment is one of them.

A team of 100 people walked through the dense forest, and when approaching the bee jungle in the north, the leader of the group, Liu Xian, waved his hand, and the team slowly stopped.

"We will enter the agreed position further on, and according to the terms of employment, we only need to maintain the northwest attack on the Bee Jungle and hold off a certain number of Red Fire Bees. Deputy head Huang Sheng said simply.

"It's just that these red fire bees are a little difficult to deal with, there are too many of them, and the fire magic that the insect monsters are most afraid of has a weak effect on them. One of the magicians in the team said helplessly.

Generally speaking, the insect monster has several obvious characteristics and shortcomings, small in size and huge in number, but a single insect monster is much weaker than the same level of monster, so most of the insect monsters live in groups, and the strength of the group makes up for the shortcomings of individual strength.

Therefore, the gathered insect type magic beasts are most afraid of fire magic, but the red fire bee is a rare fire type magic beast with a fire constitution, and the effect of general fire magic on them is very weak.

"Then the wind magic interferes with their flight and movement, and the martial arts professionals form a guardian circle, and we use the defensive formation to enter. "Yoo Hyun seems to be a very calm person, and he issues instructions in an orderly manner. "Qin Haisheng, you bring a few people with strong offensive ability to form a team and be responsible for cleaning up the approaching red fire bees. ”

"Yes. Qin Haisheng nodded, the mask he was wearing on his head was still so conspicuous.

Qin Long, who was standing behind, frowned, he didn't expect that as soon as he joined the Silver Wolf Mercenary Group, it would be such a large-scale war-type mission. And since he arrived, he had a bad premonition.

Dai Zhaoyi, Shao Zhencai, Zhao Leshan...... Qin Long, the thirteen of you will team up with me. Qin Haisheng glanced at everyone roughly.

As soon as Qin Haisheng finished ordering, a bright purple pillar of light rose into the sky in the distance.

"The signal is coming, all ready, let's go!" Liu Xian let out a deep sigh, and the entire mercenary group of more than 100 people immediately stood in line according to the defensive formation, and marched towards the front in a decent manner.

Star Bamboo City.

In a small alley in the west of the city.

An old man dressed neatly dressed and without any ornate decorations walked down the street, and the people on the side of the street, simple stalls, and gorgeous shops, together formed this block, and the cries of selling one after another brought a different kind of vitality to this block.

"Master, the appointed time is coming soon, let's hurry up. The old man was followed by a young attendant, who was helplessly trying to persuade the old man.

"There's no rush. The old man smiled, looking very approachable. "You see, although this is a civilian area, the streets are more lively than the neat and regular aristocratic districts, and the streets are still noisy here. ”

The young attendant said helplessly, "Master, please think twice, the third prince will visit in person, and the time has been agreed...... Even if it's ...... you."

The old man still smiled unhurriedly, "Don't worry." ”

The young squire sighed, daring to release the prince's pigeon like this, this old man dared.

Xue Nan, the organization of the Xue family, is also the general of the Northern Legion, with heavy troops, and is now one of the primary figures in the emperor's critical illness and the princes vying for the throne.

"By the way, you go back to the house first and report to the third prince. The old man seemed to remember something, "I'm not going back today, so I just say that there are some affairs on the Northern Legion that I need to deal with immediately." ”

The young squire nodded helplessly, although he knew that the old man was making excuses, he had to do what the old man told him.

Hey, it seems that you have to think carefully about how to fool the third prince......

The young squire departed reluctantly.

The smile on the old man's face faded. He wandered around the surrounding streets for a while, and after making sure that no one was following him, he burrowed into a house deep in a small alley.

The house was quiet, but there were already five people seated at a round table. In addition to one young man, the other three youngest looked to be over half a hundred years old, and one person was shrouded in black robes and could not see his face.

"Welcome to General Xue. The young man stood up, he seemed to be the master of the place, and greeted him very warmly.

"Mu Yuan, the third prince has already found my house and promised many benefits. General Xue smiled and said, "Shouldn't you have something to say?"

"The general laughed, you know my situation. The young man smiled bitterly for a while, "I can't give any gifts or promises for the future, all I can do is share with you the future I see." ”

Mu Yuan slowly closed his eyes, paused for a moment and then slowly opened them, his left eye was a starry sky.
