317 Stowe Grylls (1)
"Mercenaries, I'm Stowe Grylls, and I'm going to show you what it takes to survive in the most dangerous places on the Amber Continent. ”
At the foot of Cangyun Mountain, an adventurer in armor was whispering softly to the psionic crystal in his hand, carefully observing his surroundings as he spoke: "I will face a series of challenges, and in this kind of place, without proper combat and survival skills, ordinary adventurers will not be able to hold out even for a day. ”
"This time I came to the western region of the empire, deep in the Cangyun Mountain Range, which is known as the 'Border of Death', full of ferocious and cruel high-level demonic beasts, and the 'Golden Dragon Slaughter' tragedy that stirred up the mainland a few days ago happened in this dark primeval ridge. ”
With that, he strung the psionic crystal, hung it around his neck like a pendant, and continued to walk deeper into the jungle.
"I believe you have also heard of the follow-up events of the Golden Dragon Slaughter, that evening, the powerful Black King appeared, and directly strangled the pure-blooded dragon; this time, I will risk my life to go to the place where the Black King and the Golden Dragon fought to investigate, and if I am lucky, I may be able to meet the terrible Dark King......
As he spoke, Stowe had already passed through the ruins of the Beast King's Palace, which was occupied by the White Tiger King, and truly entered the depths of the clouds.
He is different from ordinary adventurers, he is an extremely powerful legendary warrior himself, known as the "King of Mercenaries", compiled the "Monster Illustrated Book" and "Mercenary Survival Guide" for adventurers to follow, extremely sought after by the mainland, and even once met the emperor and was named a marquis.
After becoming a high nobleman, Stowe did not disappear from the eyes of adventurers, but continued to provide help to the mercenary association as much as he could.
Stowe was inspired by a memory crystal that circulated in Luoshui City, and after discussing with several old friends from the original team, he began to use his experience to make image crystals similar to "teaching" for the mercenaries.
At this moment, Stowe entered his tenth target point, the foothills of Cangyun Mountain.
"As a mercenary, we must have enough adventure knowledge and survival skills, and we must always be cautious. ”
Stowe stopped at a cluster of weeds with red serrated leaves: "Just like now, we see a clump of the red sawgrass I used to talk about, which is the best food in the jungle, and it tastes fat, and a clump is enough to sustain a warrior for a day." ”
"But if we eat this tuft of red sawgrass now, I'm afraid our adventure will come to an end. ”
As he spoke, he squatted down and turned over the leaves of the red saw grass, aiming the memory crystal at the dots of black spots on the back of the leaves: "This is a cluster of red saw grass that has been infected by the dark aura, it contains severe poison, even me, my body will fall into a state of discomfort after eating it, let alone some adventurers who are not so high-level." ”
Sto's relaxed tone was gone, his voice gradually became solemn, and his brows were deeply locked: "If you look closely, you can see that this is not an ordinary dark element cover, but an abyssal infestation. ”
He took the blade to his nose and sniffed it, and continued to explain: "I have fought a king-level abyssal creature at close range, but the owner of this cluster of red sawgrass aura is obviously much stronger than the king-rank. ”
The brilliance flowed, and the red sawgrass was crushed by Sto's heavy fighting energy, he slowly got up and continued to walk inside: "There are rumors that the Black King is also an abyssal creature, so please follow my footsteps, maybe this time we can uncover the truth of the facts." ”
At this moment, a huge black-gray chrysalis tore through the bushes, three or four meters long, covered with fine arthropods, let out a low roar like a cow, and rushed straight up.
Stowe's expression remained unchanged, his long-term life as a mercenary had made his nerves tough enough, and he only took two steps back slightly, avoiding the giant chrysalis that pounced on him, and at the same time, the words in his mouth kept talking: "Through its three-petaled mouth, we can tell that this is a thousand-legged chrysalis, a two-order demonic beast." ”
"But this one is obviously different, the level has reached the third order, and the body size is much larger than the ordinary thousand-legged chrysalis. True Milliped Chrysalis has a solid gray body and will not actively attack other mobs. ”
"From these, we can tell that this chrysalis has also been affected by the abyssal breath and has become powerful and violent. ”
Instead of killing it, Stowe took out the knight's sword and bled the chrysalis until the chrysalis was completely silent, then patted it on the head and pulled away.
"Well, now we vaguely know that something terrible has happened in the depths of the clouds, causing these plants and animals to change. ”
Stowe said solemnly at the crystal: "The first time we draw a conclusion, we must understand that there is absolutely unspeakable danger ahead, and everyone should be clear: taking risks is not sending them to death, if you don't have enough strength, don't put yourself in danger at this time." The best strategy at the moment is to retreat quickly and report the news to the Empire and the Mercenary Society. ”
With that, Stowe closed the engram and whistled softly, and in a short time, several adventurers in the same outfit emerged from the woods behind him.
Stowe copied two engrams and handed them to the others: "You take it and go back first, tell the news to the head of the mercenary branch, and the Imperial Military Department will also inform you, they will definitely pay attention to it." ”
"You want to go in?" several people hesitated, looking at the mercenary king uneasily.
Stowe laughed a few times, waved his hand to signal them to leave themselves alone, and said, "I'm not old yet, I always want to move, and now the opportunity has come." ”
"Be careful. A few old fellows took a deep look at Stowe, knowing his temperament, and without much persuasion, after a heavy admonition, they turned around and left directly.
As he watched the men leave, Stowe's smile returned to his face, and he opened the crystal that hung on his chest like a pendant again, and continued: "The best way is to retreat quickly and report the news to the Empire and the Mercenary Guild, but this time, I will take a chance to show you the scenery in the depths of the clouds, and explore the true mystery of the abyssal transformation of marginal flora and fauna." ”
He stepped into the unknown.
As time passed, the night gradually fell.
Stowe squinted his eyes and walked through the foothills, he had been a mercenary for more than twenty years, and the young man who had been scared out of his legs during the night in the jungle had grown into the famous king of mercenaries, and he was fearless in the face of the vast wilderness in front of him, which had become the "border of death" by the westerners.
But this night was an exception, and as Stowe approached the abandoned dragon's lair, an inexplicable horror began to emerge in the darkness of all directions, and the shadows of the trees were blown by the eerie north wind, like a hideous creature.
His instincts for a long time in the wild tell him that he is being watched by something cold and inexplicable that is full of malice towards him.
However, this is the clouds. The Golden Dragon of the Holy Realm is dead, even that Black King is only a Legendary Realm, what can covet him without being detected!?
He's Stowe Grylls, the king of mercenaries!
