Chapter 104: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada and the Yellow Sparrow Follows
Hongjun naturally felt the changes in the jade people around him, reached out and hugged Athena in his arms, and gave the other party a comforting look, which seemed to have magical power, which instantly quieted Athena.
Hongjun sat on the seat of the former Emperor of the Rockstar Empire, with Marilyn in his left hand and Athena in his right hand, and below him were four people surnamed Bai and ten Taishang, looking completely the standard posture of a faint monarch.
More than a dozen people discussed, and they all felt that the current top priority was to find Gandalf, as long as they found him, they could know the whereabouts of Hermione and the others, but at this time, Hongjun thought of a way, everyone was stunned after hearing it, and they looked down and thought about it, which can be regarded as a way out of the way in the current situation.
So, the next day, in the Eliad region, where the town of Charles is located, a newly registered mercenary group began a crazy mission journey, the name of this mercenary group is the Wind Rishi Mercenary Group, and in the language of the locals, it means the wind of hope, regardless of the name of the mercenary group, this huge team of seventeen people is known as the full warlock camp to the outside world, and in two days completed all the unfinished high-level tasks in the Eliad region for decades, including the killing of the evil dragon Alang.
It was an evil dragon entrenched in the high mountains west of the Eliade, and over the years it had plundered many nobles' treasures, and the loss of personnel was no less than a few hundred people, and there were even records of the local church leaders being robbed and killed, and then the church sent a huge army of nearly 6,000 soldiers from four legions to seek revenge on Alang, but two months later, only more than 2,000 wounded soldiers were left and returned. After that, the task of killing Alang became the task with the highest commission here, and the level is not limited, although the level is not limited, but as long as it is a normal person, everyone knows that the amount of commission is proportional to the danger, and the task that has never been completed by anyone for many years was solved by a few people sent by this mercenary group in one day.
When Aaron's huge head was placed in the guild task hall, everyone's eyes fell on a man and two women in front of them, and the clothes of the three were not wrinkled, just when everyone was talking, the members who also went to solve other high-level tasks also came to the hall with loot, seventeen people, divided into five teams, completed the five most difficult tasks on the same day, this brilliant achievement made the jaw drop on the scene, and the silence was followed by crazy shouts, Everyone wants to tell this mercenary group to complete their tasks, including some secret missions that the nobles dare not make public, and the crazy actions are like women who have fallen into various shopping malls.
The reputation of the Wind of Hope mercenary group spread throughout Eliad in two days, in this chaotic place, the country's presence is very weak, and the influence of the church extends to various places, although the mercenary union does not care about their profession, but the church belonging to the evil forces cannot tolerate a mercenary group composed of all warlocks to shine here, so, after gathering a full three thousand orc warriors, they went to the location of the mercenary union.
An orc warrior can fight a tie with three ordinary human warriors, and these decades of war preparation have allowed Sauron's subordinate churches to have sufficient combat power to replenish, and under the leadership of three high-level necromancers, three thousand orc warriors have surrounded the mercenary guild.
The guild finally couldn't withstand such a strong pressure, and with three high-level necromancers and three thousand orc warriors, I am afraid that even one main god could be eliminated. In desperation, the guild had no choice but to betray the members of the Wind of Hope mercenary group, but at this time, Hongjun and his party were eating lunch leisurely, Bai Xi said, "Lord, the people of the church have rushed here, but... Will the target come to us? ”
Hongjun chewed a slice of meat as thin as a cicada's wings, swallowed it and said, "It should be... He looked in another direction, and within the reach of his senses, two men in wide hoodies were hiding in a tall building and watching in the direction of the orc army.
The intelligence of orcs is generally not high, and under the leadership of dozens of humans, some of them began to empty the nearby buildings, and then the three necromancers together emitted a black dense fog and flew lightly towards the room where Hongjun and his party were.
After the thick fog wrapped Hongjun's room, the thick fog began to change, and the dense fog that could not see the color began to shake, although the fog became lighter and lighter, but the things within the coverage area seemed to lose their color and turned into black, white and gray, and the energy of those substances seemed to be sucked away, and the yellow wooden planks turned into black dust, Hongjun felt that it was a special spell that could absorb the energy of objects and dissipate them.
The three necromancers looked at the building proudly, they didn't expect that the group of arrogant warlocks would be wiped out by the three of them so easily, and a trace of disdain appeared on the faces of the three of them.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, three green balls of light shot towards the three of them quickly, without the slightest time to react, the three of them turned into nothingness out of thin air the moment they came into contact with the green ball of light, and the three of them were scattered into discrete molecules by the fierce attack sent by Hongjun, and naturally they couldn't gather together.
Seeing this scene, the orcs next to him were left with endless fanaticism and hatred in their little heads, while the few orcs who kept their sanity were coerced by the berserkers around them and rushed towards Xiaolou.
Suddenly! More than a dozen people flew out of the air from the small building, in the air about 100 meters from the ground, four fairy-like women stretched out their hands in four directions, and began to explode from the place under the feet of the four people, the sound of "boom boom" began to spread from far and near, from the beginning to the surrounding area, except for the small building, every piece of wood in other places, every stone slab has become ** general, the violent energy reaction made them explode one after another, those orc warriors were blown to pieces in an instant, under this blow, There are only a dozen lucky guys left of the living orcs.
There were only a dozen people left in the ugly eyes who were frightened, and they fled in all directions, and Hongjun and the others didn't care about them, as if they were a dozen ants. Everyone did return to the small building, and Marilyn muttered, "Don't let people eat well." ”
Hongjun laughed a few times, and then asked Bai Lin to prepare some more food, and he would entertain two guests in a while.
The puzzled Bai Lin still obediently made another table of food, but only Hongjun, Athena, and Marilyn were left, and the other two empty chairs seemed to be waiting for the reunion of old friends who had not seen each other for many years.
Sure enough, less than half an hour after the dozen or so half-orcs escaped, the two gray-robed men with blood on their bodies came to the room where Hongjun was, and the two didn't say hello, and after entering the door, they saw Hongjun's two empty chairs, looked at each other and sat there.
The two of them didn't speak at first, they just ate the food in front of them easily, and after a big meal, they said as if talking to themselves, "In this world, all the ninth-order warlocks can be counted, and when did more than a dozen ninth-order warlocks appear at once." ”
Hongjun didn't say anything, just looked at the two of them with a smile, which made the two of them scratch their heads a little.
The two of them stopped their hands, tapped lightly on the table, and said thoughtfully, "Seventeen ninth-order warlocks, even Olympus can break through." But why did he come here to be a mercenary? Your purpose is to attract us. ”
Hongjun's smile deepened.
The two of them had no choice but to pretend to be indifferent and continued to pick up the knife and fork, and after a while said, "What do you want to do?" ”
Hongjun's smile didn't change, but he gently spit out three words "Gandalf" from his mouth
The two were obviously stunned, and looked at each other's eyes, as if asking something, and the man on the left said uncertainly, "You mean... Sixth-Order Grey-robed Warlock Gandalf? The big tall one? There seemed to be some uncertainty in his tone.
Hongjun nodded.
The two of them were strange at this time, so they said directly, "Why are you looking for him as an ordinary mid-level warlock?" Is it possible to have a grudge against each other? After speaking, he denied himself, "No, you have such a strong strength, he is not qualified to have an enmity with you, do you have an old one?" ”
Hongjun's expression didn't change, but he quickly thought in his heart, it seems that Gandalf didn't tell his organization about it, is it... Are you worried that someone will reveal this secret? I had to cooperate with the other party's actions.
So, Hongjun said casually, "Well, it's an old man of mine, I haven't seen him for many years, I miss him a little lately, but I can't find the other party, so I have no choice but to make this decision to lure you out for consultation." ”
The two of them didn't believe it when they heard Hongjun's statement, but the other party easily killed three high-level necromancers and three thousand orcs, and those fish that slipped through the net were also solved by the two of them, these are not fake, I believe that the other party is definitely not Sauron's person, and his person will not have such a mind and ability.
After thinking about it, the man on the left nodded and answered, "I can help you convey it, but whether he wants to come to see you or not, it's not something we can control." ”
Hongjun just smiled and nodded, so the few people stopped talking, and after eating, the two left. Hongjun sent Taishang to follow the two personally, and with Taishang's ability, it was a very simple thing to track two mortals without being discovered by the other party.
On the third day, the two came back and told Hongjun that the other party was currently unable to get out of the matter, and planned to come back to visit him in a few days. Hongjun pretended to shake his head helplessly, and sent the two out.
