"The intensity of this mission is a bit outrageous, even a full elite team can't last five minutes before it will be wiped out. I don't think even an ordinary lord-level mercenary team will be able to please you. ”

He tore off the scarf that the leader of the thieves had covered his face and said as he wiped the blood from his handarmor.

Seeing the high eyebrows and light brown skin exposed by the leader of the thieves, Gale said, "They are really from the desert country, how did they come here to become robbers? ”

Chi Gu also nodded and said: "They are by no means ordinary robbers, they are more like soldiers, I have never heard of robbers who can be so tough, and they would rather die than retreat." ”

Gail waved his hand and said, "Even if it's a soldier, we can't take care of it." Search them for anything valuable, it's a mercenary's benefit, haha. ”

Chi Gu searched for a total of more than 260,000 golden tickets from the leaders and robbers, and the two of them were even more determined that these were not ordinary robbers, even if they robbed ten such villages, they would not be able to make so much money.

"Look at this, this should be the kind of pill they just took. "Bone found two small red pills from the robber leader's body.

"I've found a few of them too, and it's incredible to see that they can enhance a great realm after eating this! But seeing them lose their rationality is even crazier than the berserk potion, and the sequelae of this thing won't be much better, so it's better not to eat it until you figure it out." Gail instructed.

"Haha, don't worry, I don't dare to eat indiscriminately. I know two alchemists, go back and show them. Chi Gu laughed.

Chi Gu said with some emotion: "This can be regarded as a blessing in disguise, but it is more profitable than lord-level tasks." ”

"That's going to have to be earned, if that guy hadn't been in a hurry to escape, maybe you'd have to carry my body back. However, this is a rare situation, so pray that it will not happen again. ”

Gale doesn't like that variable.

Just now, the villagers fled with the abducted women, and they didn't know where they fled for a while. The two had no choice but to mount their horses and return to their previous village to tell the old man the village chief that the robbers had been eliminated.

As for the follow-up to finding the thieves' nest and rescuing the women who had been taken captive from other villages, the village will form its own team to find it.

After Gail drank a bottle of recovery potion and briefly dealt with the wound in his chest, the two of them hurried to Sakastown.

The town of Sakas is located in the southern part of the Orion Empire, less than thirty kilometers away from the Beast God Mountains. And Sheep's Head Mountain is just a small hill on the border of the Beast God Mountain Range.

The area of the Beast God Mountain Range is larger than that of the Orion Empire, bordering many countries, and the ancient relic forest bordering the Elven Empire is next to it.

Demonic beasts are rampant there, especially in the central area of the Beast God Mountain Range. It was a forbidden area for the Terrans, and even the legendary powerhouses did not dare to say that they would be able to escape from it if they entered it.

"Gail, tell me about ogres, do they feed on Terrans?" asked Grassbone, riding on his horse.

"Those guys do eat people, not so much cannibalism, but they eat everything but their own kind.

Most of them live on the edge of the Beast God Mountain Range, which is safer than in the depths of the Beast God Mountain Range. But it is not excluded that there are also their races in the depths of the Beast God Mountain Range, but the human race can't explore there.

Ordinary adult ogres can generally reach the late elite stage, and some male ogres can even reach the early stage of the lord or even stronger.

They are not vindictive, but they can use petrified skins to protect themselves like earth-based monsters. Gail explained to the bone.

After the two came to Sakas, they inquired about someone and went straight to the Civil Affairs Hall.

The Civil Affairs Hall is where the mayor works, and it is the highest center of power for the entire town and the surrounding villages.

When they find the mayor, the mayor and the sheriff are here, and they seem to be discussing the ogre.

"Hello Lord Mayor, my name is Gail, and his name is Skull. We are mercenaries who take on ogre missions. Gail gave a simple samurai salute.

"Hello mercenary gentlemen who came from afar, I didn't expect you to come so quickly. Allow me to introduce you to Mr. Ackerman, the sheriff of our town.

Maybe you don't know it, but the situation has changed there, and I just commissioned the Mercenary Guild to change this mission to a multiplayer mission, just hoping that more warriors will help.

Just yesterday, Mr. Ackerman's men detected that some more ogres had migrated from the Beast God Mountains to the vicinity of Sheep's Head Mountain.

We've raised the bonus to 100,000 gold, it's dangerous right now, and it's not something one or two people can solve, so I suggest you wait for more mercenaries to come over and act together. The mayor explained.

Seeing that the mayor had finished speaking, the sheriff picked up a magic image ball and handed it to Chi Gu and said, "There is an intelligence image about Sheep's Head Mountain recorded here. Preliminary estimates suggest that around twenty ogres have appeared.

I've now ordered all my men not to go near there, but I'm afraid it won't be long before they're going down the mountain to hunt. If this is the case, then the villages near Sheep's Head Mountain will probably suffer first. ”

Chi Bone and Gail glanced at each other, and they both sensed the worry in each other's eyes, about twenty ogres, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with.

The skull opened the magic image, and although the person who was photographing it was far away and the view was blurry, it was still barely able to discern the approximate number of ogres. However, in terms of combat effectiveness, it is impossible to estimate, after all, there is a big difference between the combat effectiveness of males and females.

The sheriff saw the bone's confusion and explained, "I'm sorry, but I can only let them observe from a distance, if they get too close, they will probably be spotted."

Sheep's Head Mountain is far away from the Divine Beast Mountain Range, and there are some ordinary beasts and low-level demonic beasts there. Although ogres occasionally come here to hunt, there are only three or five at most.

But this time there were so many ogres, even cubs, which was unusual, and I was afraid that they were going to migrate here.

If the number of ogres increases again in the next few days, I will have to report to the Imperial military, and it will not be something we can handle. ”

"We'd like to see for ourselves how many people are in the town?" Gail thought about it, and decided it would be better to check it out for himself.

The sheriff quickly shook his head and said, "Mr. Gale, I don't recommend this, it's too dangerous. Coupled with the fact that there are only three Qi Induction Warriors (Lords) in my town, and only I am in the middle stage of Qi Induction, I have no right to let them take this risk. ”

"Then you don't need to send anyone with us, we'll take care of the covert. I swear to the great Lord of Light that if discovered, we will never reveal the location of Sakas. ”

Gail, of course, knew what the sheriff and mayor were worried about, so he had to raise his hand and swear an oath.

"This ...... Alright then, I'll let Zhuo Lin go with you. He's my subordinate, and he's a good hunter. He often went to Sheep's Head Mountain to hunt, and was very familiar with the terrain there. ”

The sheriff hesitated, and when he saw the mayor nodding, he stopped persuading.

After a while, the young man in his twenties named Zhuolin came to Chi Gu and Gail.

Zhuo Lin was only an internal qi (elite) martial artist, and often went hunting in the forests near Sheep's Head Mountain, so he was very familiar with the place, and Zhuo Lin recorded the ogre's reconnaissance magic video by himself.

Zhuo Lin made a brief preparation, and the three of them rode to the back of a high dirt slope not far from Sheep's Head Mountain.

Zhuo Lin pointed to the dirt slope and said, "This is only about two kilometers away from the range of the ogres, and it is the safest place to observe them, and you can't ride a horse if you go forward." ”

Two kilometers was still too far, and after an agreement, the three of them finally tied their horses here and continued on their way.

"You can't go any further, if you are discovered, you won't be able to run. ”

The three of them passed through the dense woods on the side, and there were several large half-man-high rocks in front of them. The three of them hid behind, and Zhuo Lin said nothing and didn't go any further.

"Oh well. Gail nodded, no longer insisting.

Then he asked the skull, which had climbed behind a rock on a high slope with only one eye out, "Can you see?"

A kilometer or so is very difficult for the Terran eyesight to see or anything. Although the fighting spirit can enhance the quality of all aspects of the human body, there is still not much change in the five senses.

"I can see clearly, it's clear. ”

But it was different for the bone, when the hematopoietic state transmitted the mysterious power in the bones to all parts of the body, even the most fragile brain was getting stronger in all aspects, and the most direct manifestation was that his five senses were sharper, especially when he focused on a certain item, which would increase exponentially.

After hearing Chi Gu's answer, although Zhuo Lin did not refute, he couldn't hide his suspicious look. Gail gave a thumbs up, with an expression that he knew you could do.

Gail asked impatiently, "What do you see?" ”

The bone's brows furrowed slightly, condensing his spiritual power on his eyes, and the originally vague scene in the distance at this time suddenly shrank more than doubled.

"One for two...... Twenty-six ogres can be seen, including fourteen females, eight males, and four cubs, but two males are taller and stronger than the others, and are supposed to be leaders or something. Chi Gu said as he counted carefully.

"You can really see it!"

Zhuo Lin finally stopped doubting.

In fact, there are still a few observation points closer to him, and if he goes alone, he will dare to take a risk, but if he takes someone else, he will never dare.

And if it's too close, you can't use magic gemstones, and ogres are very sensitive to magic fluctuations.

"You kid, I can't lie to you, my brother is the most powerful hunter I've ever met. Gail said proudly, as if it were all his work.

"What do they look like, bones? I've never seen an ogre. ”

After all, the illustrations in the book are somewhat abstract, and Gale is still very curious about this legendary monster.

"There's not a good comparison, it's not very clear about their height. But judging by the trees next to them, they should be tall.

The limbs are thick, the body is very stout, and the body structure is very similar to ours. Light gray skin with some bumps on the skin that looks a little disgusting.

They have wide and high brow bones, a large nose, a wide upper and lower jaws, and thick exposed canine teeth. There are black hairs on the top of the head and all the way to the back.

Anyway, it's ugly in my aesthetic opinion, but it's really an intelligent creature. Although they did not wear shoes, they were covered with animal skins, and they were supposed to be crude giant bones. ”

The bones are described in great detail, and the distance of about a kilometer is as if it is close at hand.

"It's a little strange, they seem to be mostly wounded, and I always feel like they're uneasy, maybe I'm mistaken. ”

Although ogres differ from Terran species, they are still very similar in facial features. There was always a feeling that these ogres seemed to be afraid of something.

"By the way, I don't know if the ogre speaks the lingua franca. It's a little far, I'll see if I can hear it. ”

It occurred to him that he might be able to hear something. So the spirit is condensed in both ears.

"Ah......h

Suddenly, the bones covered their ears and involuntarily let out a painful scream. This scream immediately jumped off Gael and Zhuolin.

They hurriedly ran up, and saw Chi Gu's pained expression, his hands clutched over his ears, and a trace of blood oozed from between his fingers.
