Chapter 9: The Forest of Hundred Valleys

After a day's trek, the entire blue caravan arrived at the entrance of the Baigu Forest, and at the entrance of the forest was Xiong Dalin, a member of the Houtu Mercenary Regiment who had been waiting for a long time, Xiong Dalin saw that the convoy was close to the entrance of the Baigu Forest, and drove the mount Cloud Beast under him to converge, "Brother Mo, Lao Meng and Zhongzi have already selected a camp in the Baigu Forest, the area around the camp has been surveyed, and no high-level demonic beasts have been found for the time being, Lao Meng and Zhongzi have expanded the scope of the survey to ensure the safety of the camp tonight." Xiong Dalin immediately reported when he saw Gu Mo.

"Well, Da Lin, you take us to the camp first, settle the goods before dark, and set up the camp. "The mercenary group is on the life and death line of fighting with Warcraft all the year round, and the habits of Warcraft are much more experienced than the guards of these families, and at the same time, the mercenary group is also experienced in dealing with thieves in addition to Warcraft, and generally encounters a stronger thief group, most of the mercenary groups will buy roads with money, and the province will make more trouble, and the thieves group will basically choose to let go after receiving the mercenary group's road money, and the thieves group does not want to get into trouble with the behemoth of the mercenary association. However, when some chambers of commerce have not issued a transportation task for a long time without the mercenary group to pick it up, the president of the chamber of commerce can only choose to take a risk, and send a family guard team to transport it by itself, once it encounters a Warcraft riot or a high-level Warcraft out of the lair to patrol the territory, there will be heavy losses if there is no master in the escort team, and when encountering a more fierce thief group, the goods will be all looted, and the escort team will not leave a living, so the Chamber of Commerce needs to issue an escort task in the Mercenary Association when transporting goods over a long distance, so as to ensure that the goods of their chamber of commerce can arrive at their destination on time and safely。

Although the transport task is only a D-level mission, it is a little more oil and water than some A-level and B-level missions, and it is the only D-level mission that requires a large number of middle and high-level martial arts to participate, of course, if you are a level 6 or even 7 strength, as long as you are recognized by the Chamber of Commerce, you can directly take the transportation task, because although a person is strong, there is no mercenary group to find a better and safer camp for the caravan.

Dalin led the way in front, and everyone in the caravan was more vigilant after entering the Baigu Forest, and they didn't meet high-level demonic beasts along the way, and several second-level demonic beasts appeared in the middle and were instantly killed by Lan Bowen. This route avoided the territory of most of the high-level demonic beasts, and it was enough to see that Meng Qi, Xiong Dalin, and Hetian Zhong had a lot of experience.

"Brother Mo, we're here" Da Lin jumped off the cloud beast and pointed to a large empty grass in front of him, the grass was marked by the flag of the thick soil mercenary group, and the surrounding trees were also treated in advance, and the deeper bushes and dense trees were cleaned up, so that the starlight could shine at night, and the vision would be clearer, and if you accidentally encountered a high-level demonic beast or a restless demonic beast group, you could better fight.

"Well, okay, Da Lin and Fengzi, you take a few brothers to continue to expand the camp, set up observation points and warning charms around the area, and the others start to camp, and they will rest here today, and they will continue to move forward as soon as it is dawn tomorrow morning, and leave the Baigu Forest before dark to arrive at Yangshan Ridge, and trouble Brother Tianyu to arrange the storage of goods. After Gu Mo assigned the task, he said to Lan Tianyu beside him.

"Bowen, you take a few people to park the truck, arrange a few people to prepare tonight's meal, and the others assist the brothers of the Houtu Mercenary Group to camp together, Brother Mo, we will not interfere in the survey of the surrounding camps, the provincial help is not helpful, if you need to arrange the brothers to be on duty at night, just say. Lan Tianyu jumped off the cloud beast and untied the bag tied to the cloud beast, the limousine that Lan Xin was riding in was arranged by Lan Tianyu to stop in the middle of the camp, it seems that the safety of Lan Xin on this trip is the top priority.

Jiang Yu followed Kang Feng to arrange warning charms around the camp, Kang Feng took out the warning charm from the package, the warning charm is a set of talismans that can be carved by a pindan talisman, divided into sub-talismans and mother talismans, the higher the level of the warning talisman, the more the number of sub-talismans, and the farther the sub-talisman can be placed, the greater the role it plays, placed in the outer sub-talisman can sense whether there is a demonic beast within a hundred meters of approaching, once a demonic beast appears within the range of the warning talisman, the sub-talisman will convey information to the mother talisman, the more advanced the warning talisman is, the more expensive the warning talisman is, the Houtu mercenary group is now using a three-grade warning talisman, a total of 6 sub-talismans, which can be placed three thousand meters away from the mother talisman, and the location of the sub-rune should be judged according to the mercenary experience, which places can capture the dangerous information faster, Kang Feng quickly selected the placement point of the sub-rune, although the bushes here are lush, but they are all new, indicating that there are demonic beasts often haunted here. Kang Feng buried the sub-talisman under the soil, put a little dead leaf on it to cover it, and prepared to leave to find the place where the second sub-talisman was placed.

Jiang Yu smelled the air mixed with a faint smell of earth, the humid air coupled with the rotting dead wood is the favorite place for the Level 2 high-level group of demon beasts Black Wood Scorpion, the Black Wood Scorpion, highly venomous, likes to live in groups, hides in the burrows under the moist soil during the day, and comes out to hunt at night. After Jiang Yu came to this place, his body naturally tensed slightly, and the power of the blood veins in his body was also trembling slightly, allowing Jiang Yu to burst out at any time, which was an alarm to the intuition of the subconscious of the danger lurking around.

"Brother Fengzi, there may be a level 2 high-level Warcraft group here" It is precisely because he is born with a sensitive sense of smell to danger that Jiang Yu has been fighting with Warcraft for nine years and night in the Warcraft Forest and has been getting stronger and stronger, and this intuition and sense of smell of danger has been magnified countless times, Jiang Yu believes that his judgment is not wrong, and he and Kang Feng are breaking into the territory of the Level 2 Warcraft Group Black Wood Scorpion, but because it is daytime, the Black Wood Scorpion does not gush out of the crypt, but it is very likely that these intrusions must be locked.

Although Kang Feng has been hunting and killing Warcraft in the Warcraft Forest all year round since joining the mercenary group, his understanding of Warcraft habits is much worse than Jiang Yu, who lives in the jungle day and night, most of the adventurers who enter the Warcraft Forest alone choose to leave the Warcraft Forest at night and return to the town to rest and kill in the forest the next day, only a very small number of mercenary teams need to spend the night in the Warcraft Forest, and they also show extra caution, rarely fight with Warcraft at night, and most of the mercenary teams that encounter Warcraft at night have suffered heavy losses, but Kang Feng does not understand Jiang Yu's strength and dangerous judgment, Kang Feng didn't know that even the Level 6 Junior Martial Saint Uncle Dong's perception of the danger of the Warcraft Forest was not as obvious as Jiang Yulai's.

"Little brother Jiang Yu, generally if we break into the territory of the Warcraft group, the Warcraft will definitely come out to eliminate the invaders, the Warcraft is especially sensitive to the breath of humans, so don't be nervous, little brother, the newborn bush means that there are often Warcraft here, but it does not mean that we have entered the territory of the Warcraft group" Kang Feng thought that Jiang Yu had just come out with Uncle Dong to see the world, and Kang Feng was still very optimistic about Jiang Yu's little brother, so he patiently explained to Jiang Yu and taught Jiang Yu how to survive in the Warcraft Forest, Jiang Yu was very grateful to Kang Feng for sharing with him the mercenaries' knowledge of the Warcraft Forest, but because he couldn't expose his strength too much, Jiang Yu could only wait back and tell Uncle Dong that he should be vigilant at night, although the level 2 black wood scorpion was not a big threat to the caravan, but for the Warcraft Forest, some hidden dangers may lead to a greater crisis.

Jiang Yu silently wrote down this place and calculated the approximate distance from the camp here, if there is really a group of demonic beasts, after the sub-talisman warning, with the speed of the black wood scorpion, the camp should be able to fully organize the defense, but it will be more troublesome in case it attracts the attention of other demonic beasts, so it is necessary to deal with this group of demonic beasts in a short time to ensure the safety of the camp. Jiang Yu thought that it shouldn't be a problem to deal with these black wood scorpions with the strength of Uncle Dong, Gu Mo and Lan Tianyu, but he still had a little ominous premonition in his heart, and he always felt that something was missing.
